Chapter 12: The Big Stomach

It takes about half a year to walk from Longfeng County to Qijue Mountain, but by car, the time can be shortened by nearly half, and it can be reached in only 4 months.

"Why do you want to take the car, wouldn't it be nice to run all the way over?" Ling Kong looked at the carriage that Qin Wanlie had prepared for Qin Xiaowan and asked such a question.

"In this way, you can arrive at the Seven Peerless Mountains earlier, spend more time to familiarize yourself with the environment there, get to know the examiners of the Seven Peerless Mountains earlier, and bribe ......" Qin Wanlie was patient and explained his intentions to the volleys one by one, but he didn't care whether the volleys understood or not.

"I'm faster than the carriage. Volleys didn't seem to have thought about how much time they could save by riding in a carriage.

A child is a child, Qin Wanlie thought so, and said to the volley with some contempt: "Then can you run for a day without resting." ”

"Yes. Ling Kong didn't think much about it, and nodded, isn't it just running for a day without resting, I'll be fine for two days.

"Then can you run for four months without resting? ”

"Can this horse be?" Ling Kong pointed to the carriage prepared by Qin Wanlie in disbelief.

"Except for eating and sleeping, it can. Qin Wanlie smiled and nodded, held his head high, looked at the volley proudly, and said in his heart, a child is a child, and he actually wanted to compete with a good horse with his thin body. "That's right, these horses are all selected good horses, it's trivial to travel thousands of miles a day, and it's not a problem to travel for a long time......" Qin Wanlie couldn't stop praising the horses he had prepared, his face full of proud smiles.

"If you want to take out the time to eat and sleep, then I can too. Ling Kong walked to the side of the horse, patted the horse's buttocks, and looked at Qin Wanlie with a smile, compared to Qin Wanlie's proud smile, Ling Kong's smile was as bright as the sun.

Qin Wanlie didn't know how to take the words of the volley, so he had to keep a calm face and urge Qin Xiaowan to get into the car quickly.

In addition to food and water, the carriage was also loaded with a lot of gold and jewelry, which Qin Wanlie left for Qin Xiaowan to spare, in case he needed money when he arrived at the Seven Peerless Mountains, in case there was any shady scene in the entrance exam of the Seven Peerless Mountains, in case ...... Qin Wanlie did not allow any mistakes in Qin Xiaowan's entrance exam, and every detail was considered very carefully.

"Dad, mother, Wan'er, Wan'er is gone. Qin Xiaowan was reluctant to board the carriage.

Ling Kong watched from the sidelines, and also remembered Ling Qiao and Uncle Zhang, who were still in Songtan Village, "I don't know if my sister steamed buns today." Volley touched his stomach.

"Young man, there's a weapon here, take it. The gray-clothed old man walked up to the sky and handed a broadsword to the sky.

Ling Kong was about to refuse, but the old man said before he could speak, "You are good, but when you meet someone with similar skills to you, one more weapon will give you a better chance of winning." ”

Qin Wanlie looked at this broadsword, his heart was shocked, he turned his head to look at the old man in gray, and muttered in a low voice, "Old Lin, you actually handed over this broadsword to him?"

The gray-clothed old man laughed, "Since ancient times, swords have been matched with heroes, do you think that Wan Lie is not worthy of this broadsword?"

Qin Wanlie shook his head, and then sighed in a low voice, "Good boy." ”

Ling Kong didn't pay attention to the conversation between the two of them, just thought about it, what the old man said was also reasonable, if he had a sword in his hand the day before yesterday, he would definitely be a lot easier when facing the Black Bear King, so he nodded, took the sword, and carried it behind his back.

"Go ahead, don't lose the face of our Qin family. After Qin Wanlie said this, he turned around and helped Mrs. Qin to walk towards the Qin Mansion, and many servants of the Qin Mansion also turned around and followed behind Qin Wanlie.

Mrs. Qin couldn't bear to look at Qin Xiaowan who was driving away, and her eyes were moist again.

Qin Wanlie felt the slight vibration of the beautiful woman, felt her sadness, and also turned his head to look at Qin Xiaowan who was going away, and the volley running beside the carriage, and gently patted Mrs. Qin's shoulder, comforting her.

Qin Wanlie's heart was far less calm than his appearance, and at this time, Qin Wanlie's mind was full of one thing - how could the good cabbage that had been raised for more than ten years make the pig arch......

If Qin Xiaowan is a good cabbage, but the volley is definitely not a pig, a few years later, Qin Wanlie, with the help of the volley, called the king under this sky, annexed several powerful countries around the country, but never called the king, but chose a unique way to call himself, and at the same time changed the name of the country to Qin, and all the courtiers were uniformly called "Qing", for example, the word Qing in the later "Zhongqing's Family", a vent of the grievances of the year.

............

......

...

"Hey, you're not tired. Qin Xiaowan opened the curtain on the carriage window and looked at the volley running outside the car, a few of them had been running for five or six hours along the way, Qin Xiaowan just sat all the way, and she also felt a little tired, and wanted to get out of the car and take a walk.

"Not tired. Ling Kong turned his head to look at Qin Xiaowan and smiled.

"Are you hungry? Qin Xiaowan continued to ask.

"Well, I'm a little hungry. Ling Kong said, casually stuffing a bun into his mouth.

"Then do you eat chicken legs?" Qin Xiaowan shook a fragrant chicken leg by the car window, smiling and looking at the sky.

Ling Kong saw the chicken legs, took a few deep breaths, obviously attracted by the fragrance of the chicken legs, hurriedly ran to the car window, stretched his head over, and said that he wanted to eat and eat.

"Come up in the car to eat. Qin Xiaowan put away her smile, twisted her face to the side, and lowered the curtains.

Ling Kong responded with a grin, and hurriedly got into the carriage, but the speed was too fast, Qin Xiaowan couldn't react, and was hit by the volley on the wooden board of the carriage, with a coquettish, panting, and weakly complaining about the volley, "Why are you so anxious." ”

Qin Xiaowan's coquettish voice and soft complaint made the carriage driver laugh again and again, and she couldn't help but sigh: "It's good to be young." ”

Ling Kong sat down next to Qin Xiaowan, this was the first time he had sat in this carriage, he was holding the chicken leg and nibbling while looking around.

There were several wooden boxes on each side of the carriage, all locked, and although it was not clear what the locks were made of, the sound of these locks colliding with the wooden boxes as the vehicle was running was heard in the air, and Volley was sure to destroy them in the blink of an eye.

In the middle of the carriage was a small mahogany table with bronze cups and various foods on it, and a tiger skin carpet was padded under the mahogany table, on which Ling Kong and Qin Xiaowan sat on it.

Qin Xiaowan pulled the curtain behind her, and there were bedding inside, and at night when there was no inn to rest, Ling Kong and the coachman would find a random place to lie down for one night, and Qin Xiaowan would come to the simple bedroom behind the carriage to rest for one night.

"You look pretty handsome with this sword on your back. Qin Xiaowan looked at the volley who was immersed in eating and drinking, and suddenly said something like this.

"Huh?"

"What did you say?" Ling Kong's mouth was filled with two chicken legs, his face had been supported and deformed, he looked up at Qin Xiaowan, and said words that Qin Xiaowan couldn't understand.

Qin Xiaowan looked at Ling Kong's mouth filled with food, thinking that since they set off, they really hadn't eaten a good meal, Ling Kong usually used the buns in the cloth bag tied around his waist to satisfy his hunger, thinking of the buns, Qin Xiaowan thought of Ling Kong eating the buns that fell on the ground in front of her.

Thinking of this, Qin Xiaowan shouted to the coachman, "Old Wu, how far is it to the next town?"

Lao Wu responded, "In about half an hour, we will be able to reach Wuxian Town." ”

"Then we'll rest in Wuxian Town today. ”

"Okay, drive. Lao Wu responded and continued to drive the horse forward.

............

......

...

"You were kidding the day when you exchanged a black bear for twenty buns. Qin Xiaowan looked at the layers of dishes stacked next to Ling Kong, and couldn't help but sigh.

"What are you kidding?" Ling Kongkong continued to eat the food in front of him without raising his head.

"Oops, this braised pork is so delicious...... Well, this roast chicken is so tender...... It's delicious, it's delicious......" Ling Kong was full of praise for the food in front of him while eating.

"Xiao Er, one more of this braised pork, one more of this roast chicken, forget it, two more. Qin Xiaowan looked at the empty plate after plate, and couldn't help beckoning Xiao Er to serve the food and serve the food again.

"I really don't believe you can eat twenty buns to eat. Qin Xiaowan used chopsticks to pick up a piece of braised pork that was full of praise in the air, accompanied by rice, and ate it bite by bite.

"I don't know how many buns that black bear can get in exchange. Ling Kong said, and stuffed another piece of chicken into his mouth.

Hearing Volley's reply, Qin Xiaowan wanted to scold him twice, but before the words came out, she heard someone slap the table hard, shouting loudly for the second child in the restaurant.

Ling Kong followed his voice and saw a man who seemed to be more than ten years older than himself sitting at a table beside him, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a high nose and a wide mouth, and a majestic face full of Chinese characters was covered with beards, quite windy and frosty.

"Yes, yes, what does the second master command. A little two ran to the rugged man's table with a smile on his face.

"What did he eat, give me double it. The big man looked sideways at the stacked plates on the table in the sky, and pointed to the table with his finger.

Hearing the words of the big man, the volley also came to the spirit, my sister used to be strict, saying that it is not easy to digest if I eat too much, and I have never known how much I can eat, so I can try it today.

"Can I continue to add vegetables?" Ling Kong asked with a look on his face as he looked at Qin Xiaowan.

"Do you have any money on you?"

"Nope. ”

"And you still want to add vegetables?"

"Aren't you rich?"

"What does that have to do with you?"

"That's why I asked you if I could continue to add food. ”

Volley's answer made Qin Xiaowan feel speechless for a while, but Qin Xiaowan was not a master who was afraid of things, plus she had been educated since she was a child, she must not embarrass the Qin family, now that someone has taken the initiative to provoke, there is absolutely no reason to retreat, Qin Xiaowan called Xiao Er over, and shouted in a clear voice that could be heard by a rough man, "If there is anything in the store, just give it to us." ”

After that, Qin Xiaowan patted two ingots of gold on the table.

When Xiao Er saw these two ingots of gold, his eyes immediately lit up, and he responded, "Yes, yes." ”

"Remember, I'm a double. The big man took a sip of wine and reminded the shopkeeper.

"Don't worry, second master, your words, we won't forget it at any time. Xiao Er smiled, put the towel on his shoulder, and turned into the kitchen.

"Hmph, I thought he was going to shoot four ingots. Qin Xiaowan couldn't help but despise the rugged man who was just drinking.

The rugged man was not angry, he took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms with a smile and slapped them on the table, "This girl is very angry, no wonder, the climate has been dry these days, the temperature is not low, Xiao Er, give the table a plate of bitter gourd, and then send a watermelon, give them to the fire, the money is mine." ”

"Second master, the silver ticket is only available in the Northern Song Dynasty, and now the King of Qin has not unified the six countries, we should be in the Warring States Period at this time, and there is no silver ticket. One of the rugged man's attendants whispered.

"Tell you to talk a lot, who told you that this story has something to do with the history of the Celestial Empire. The rugged man glared at the attendant who had spoken, and the attendant immediately shut up and took a few steps back.

Ling Kong didn't know what the silver ticket was, and he didn't care what it was, he just buried his head in eating it, Qin Xiaowan had never seen the silver ticket, but looking at the expression and movements of the big man, he thought that it was also an extremely valuable thing, and he didn't pay attention to it anymore.

The serving speed of this restaurant is really not slow, and in less than a while, the table of Dahan and Ling is full of all kinds of dishes, of course, all meat dishes.

The rugged man who saw the big dishes on the table of double and volley laughed, and called the shopkeeper to serve wine.

Ling Kong still buried his head in stuffing the food into his mouth, and didn't care whether the dishes on his table were twice as small as the big man's table.

"Xiao Er, bring us another braised beef, sweet and sour tenderloin, charcoal-grilled whole sheep, canned meat, braised pig's trotters, ......" Qin Xiaowan looked at the dishes on the table and ordered another one.

"Little Er, I remember double here. The rugged man laughed and shouted at the shopkeeper.

Qin Xiaowan didn't pay attention to him anymore, but asked Ling Kong with concern, "Yes, can you finish eating?"

Qin Xiaowan's voice was very soft, but every word was still heard clearly by the rough man, and the rough man who only listened laughed, "Little brother, don't hold it hard if you can't eat, hahahaha." ”

"Huh?" Ling Kong snorted, looked up at Qin Xiaowan's slightly frowning brows, and thought that eating was the same as eating steamed buns, and he hurriedly asked, "Is the money not enough?"
