Mutated Tao Chapter 253: Mutton
The wheels of the ox cart, which had stopped for a long time, started rolling again, leading them towards the border between Liang Guo and Qingqiu.
On the way, Gouwa, who covered his forehead with his hands, kept fanning his sweaty face with his hands. "It's such a hot day, Brother Li, why don't you just leave tomorrow."
"It's going to be hot tomorrow, why don't you go the day after tomorrow? It's going to be hot the day after tomorrow, why don't you go after autumn? Since it's so good over there, why did you come here? How good would it be to herd sheep with Baolu?"
Hearing Li Huowang's sarcasm, Gouwa looked at the remaining women, smiled and stopped talking.
He is not so stupid, this wife is about to hook up, how can he stay, no matter how delicious the meat is, it is good to have a wife? Besides, following Senior Brother Li, are you afraid that there will be no meat to eat?
Noticing Gouwa's gaze, the pear-faced woman first glanced at Li Huowang, and then gave him a blank look pretending to be shy.
"Huh~" Li Huowang slowly opened the parchment in his hand, and looked at the so-called Xianduzi photoprint on it. up.
"Brother Li, what is this?" Zhao Wu, who was riding an ox cart, asked.
"The practice of supernatural powers."
Li Huowang's words immediately attracted the hot eyes of other people. "Brother Li, have you practiced yet?"
"I didn't practice, I didn't dare to practice, after all, it was forcefully pried out of its mouth. I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. God knows if there is any problem."
Li Huowang is very familiar with this trick in practicing exercises. He used this trick to escape from the Qingfeng Temple. He didn't want to end up like Danyangzi.
Li Huowang took out the copper coin sword from behind, played with it in his hand, and then inserted it back in again. "Well... I need to find someone to test it out."
"Senior Brother Li! I'm coming! I'm coming!" Li Huowang looked up, and found that the one who was speaking was the only living Taoist boy, Young Child Yang, his eyes were full of heat.
"Do your job well, don't meddle in adults' affairs."
If this is not done well, there will be pitfalls. It is definitely not good to let someone else be yourself. You have to find an identity that is just right. If there is a problem, nothing will happen.
"Brother Li, look at what this is!" Chun Xiaoman reached into the tent with his hand, and took out a gold box inlaid with agates and precious stones. The gold ingots inside were very familiar.
Li Huowang was stunned for a moment, he remembered this thing, it was Sun Baolu's mother's dowry, she must have secretly stuffed it in last night.
He understood what the other party meant by doing this. He undoubtedly restored Sun Baolu's body to its original state. In order to repay him, he gave him the gold as a reward.
He looked back and saw that those tents had long since disappeared, leaving only large patches of green.
"Forget it, since it's someone else's good intentions, then don't refuse, keep it as a financial aid, and you can buy your family property when you arrive in Liang country."
In the next period of time, maybe it's because Qingqiu is sparsely populated, or maybe it's because of bad luck for a long time and then good luck. The journey was uneventful and there were no accidents.
It's been more than a month since the trip, and the dog days have passed, but it's getting hotter and hotter.
A burst of unpleasant bird calls exploded from the air. Li Huowang, who was looking at the parchment map in his hand, looked up at the fuzzy dot in the air, and then looked at the thing in his hand again.
He sent the map to Bai Lingmiao who was at the side, and asked her, "Do you understand? Do you remember where your Niuxin Mountain is?"
Although the map of Liang Guo collected from Qingqiu is not very detailed, the general appearance is still marked.
We are about to enter the Kingdom of Liang, so it's time to determine the exact location of our destination.
"This.....is not right....and here is not right..." Facing the various lines slowly winding on the map, Bai Lingmiao's expression was very hesitant.
It is obviously very difficult to find out the hometown in her impression from these simple lines, but this is not her fault. Li Huowang himself sometimes gets confused when looking at this map, and the drawing is too crude
Li Huowang took the map back, and thought to himself: "It seems that this Niuxin Mountain, after entering the Liang Kingdom, buy a new map, and then ask the local talents."
"By the way, I remember, aren't you from Liang Guo? Where are you from?" Li Huowang turned to look at Gou Wa.
"It's okay, I don't want to go back. I grew up eating a lot of food. If I don't go back, I can save some food for the villagers."
Gou Wa said with a smile, he had no sense of anticipation to go home at all, his eyes were all fixed on the pear-faced woman next to the carriage in front of him.
Li Huowang didn't tell the truth, he looked up at the sun in the sky, and said: "It's almost time, let's have lunch. It seems that we are about to go out of Qingqiu, so let's kill the sheep."
Hearing this, everyone's expression turned pale, and they were all overjoyed. Although there is no shortage of meat in Qingqiu, after all, they have been poor all their lives, and they still haven't had enough meat.
It's not that Li Huowang is so extravagant all of a sudden, it's just that Liang Guo obviously doesn't have as much grass as Qingqiu to feed the sheep.
"Meaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..." An old sheep was dragged out of the flock by Gou Wa's horns, and rushed towards the distant river.
During this journey, everyone has eaten sheep so many times that everyone is already familiar with the process. First bloodletting, then skinning, and then gutting, the steps are simple and clear.
The white sheep's body was sprinkled with salt and spices, and then pierced with the one-foot-two long halberd, and placed between two carriages and burned.
If Peng Longteng saw that his weapon was being ruined like this, he would probably be so angry that he would come alive.
Looking at the dry sheep dung on fire below, and at the roasted whole lamb on top, Gouwa licked his tongue and said with a smile: "Hehehe, no matter how you say this, it can be regarded as the original soup. It's raw food, it's very comfortable."
After being hit on the back of the head by Chun Xiaoman, Gouwa shrank his neck, turned around and walked towards the group of women who were picking wild vegetables.
When the roasted whole lamb is roasted, the haggis soup with wild vegetables over there is also ready. The greasy roast meat is just right with the light vegetable soup.
Everyone piled up on the grass in groups of three and four, enjoying the feast.
Gouwa smiled and broke off his own sheep's head, pulled out the long sheep's tongue inside, and put it in the wild vegetable bowl in the hand of the pear-faced woman. "Hong'er~ come here, I've saved something special for you, sheep tongue."
The woman named Hong'er shyly held the bowl in her bosom, picked up her long tongue with her hand and began to eat in small bites.
Facing Gouwa's emaciated body, she didn't have any objection.
On the other hand, Child Yang, facing the round-faced woman begging for his sheep's tail, he angrily refused.
At this time, Zhao Wu, who was sitting on the bullock cart, saw this scene with a hint of envy in his eyes.
But looking at his weak limbs, Zhao Wu sighed lightly, and focused all his attention on the wild vegetable haggis soup in his hand.
