Chapter 144 Go Back
As long as you have a little understanding of the matters here, you will know that the subsequent matters are very difficult to deal with. Looking at the appearance of the third prince, it seems that he has picked up some great bargains.

The corners of Zhou Ximing's lips curled up slightly, "The Third Prince never takes one step at a time and waits three steps at a time. I'm afraid he won't realize it until we leave."

This is also the reason why Zhou Ximing wants to leave as soon as possible.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhou Ximing took his people into the carriage, left from the west gate of the Northwest City very low-key, and walked slowly towards the capital.

When coming, Bai Susu saw that the road was full of fleeing people.When walking, the fleeing people could no longer be seen along the way.

She lowered the curtain of the carriage, and handed a box of ready-made potato chips to Zhou Ximing, "Try it, how do these taste?"

When Bai Susu had nothing to do last night, she made a lot of potato chips, thinking that she would sell them as snacks when she arrived in the capital, which could be regarded as promoting the way of eating potatoes to the people of Northwest City.

Zhou Ximing tasted a small piece, which was different from many dim sums he had eaten in the past. This salty dim sum tasted really good. He couldn't help chuckling and nodded slowly, "In terms of making dim sum and dishes, Never disappoints."

Hearing his undisguised praise, Bai Susu raised the corners of her mouth, slightly curved her eyes, and said with a smile, "Then when the carriage stops, I'll make you a beggar's chicken, which tastes even better."

"Beggar Chicken?" Zhou Ximing thought the name was particularly interesting, "Why did you call it that name?"

"It is said that there was a beggar who got a chicken by chance and had no place to cook it, so he mashed the chicken with mud and cooked it alive. It tasted good and was loved by people, and it was called Beggar's Chicken." Bai Su Su told Zhou Ximing the story of this dish, but this was only one version.

There are many theories about the origin of Beggar Chicken, this one was the one Bai Susu heard the most, and she believed this version of the story.

"It sounds novel." Zhou Ximing took Bai Susu's hand, with a hesitant look on his face, "It's just a chicken stuffed with mud, how should I eat it?"

Zhou Ximing couldn't believe what the chicken would look like after it was made.

"You'll know when the time comes." Bai Susu purposely made a fool of herself and didn't tell him the details.

At noon, the carriage stopped to rest, Bai Susu jumped out of the carriage first, chose a relatively open place on the land, and started to work.

She took out the processed chicken and carefully wrapped it in the lotus leaves that she had prepared earlier.After that, a pot of mud was brought from the bottom of the carriage, and it was carefully pasted on the surface of the lotus leaves.

When Aying watched Bai Susu paste the pot of mud on the lotus leaves, his expression was already off.When he watched Bai Susu prepare this basket of mud this morning, he thought she was going to continue to study the soil in the northwest, but he didn't expect it to be used here.

After looking at it for a while, Ah Ying couldn't help but said: "Miss Bai, this chicken is so battered, can it still be eaten?"

"Don't worry, you can eat." Bai Susu raised her hand and wiped the sweat from her cheek with her arm.Although the movements of the hands were careful, the mud still stained his face unavoidably.

Zhou Ximing sat beside her, took out a handkerchief from his cuff, and carefully wiped off the dirt on her cheek bit by bit, with a soft and loving voice, "If you want to wipe off your sweat, I'll do it Help."

Seeing such a gentle master, Ah Ying couldn't get used to it, so he turned around and left from here, and silently ran to the side to watch and eat pancakes.

After completely sealing the chicken with mud, Bai Susu patted the huge lump of mud in front of her again, with satisfaction in her eyes.Build a nest made of picked branches, and light the fire with a torch.

When the fire is burning, throw the dried mud on the side into the fire, and keep an eye on the situation inside.

When the soil outside was roasted and hardened, and gradually released a faint fragrance, Bai Susu knew that it was almost the same.

"Little girl, what are you relying on? It's so fragrant." An old man with a white beard came over suddenly and squatted in front of Bai Susu.

He came so fast and too suddenly that both Bai Susu and Zhou Ximing were stunned at the same time.A Ying sensed that something was wrong here, and immediately led a group of people over, with the long sword in his hand directly on the old man's neck.

There are guards all around here, but this old man was able to walk over without them noticing, obviously a person with good martial arts.

"Young man, don't fight and kill at will." The old man looked down at the sword on his neck, stretched out his hand to flick the sword in disapproval, and Ah Ying's hand flicked away uncontrollably.

Obviously, this old man, A Ying is not his opponent at all.

"Aying, take them to rest, and don't worry about things here." Zhou Ximing looked at Aying and ordered quietly.

"Yes." Ah Ying switched the sword from his hand to the other, glanced at the old man vigilantly, and sat not far from here, always paying attention to the situation here.

"It's better for you to be refreshing." The old man sat on the ground casually, looked at the young man opposite, with admiration in his eyes, "I'm not a bad person, I just smell the delicious food made by this little girl, so come and have a look .”

Zhou Ximing saw that his words and deeds were very similar to those of the quack, so he just responded lightly and didn't say much.Seeing that the old man was not threatening, Bai Susu also smiled and told him what kind of food it is.

Hearing Bai Susu's explanation, the old man suddenly smiled, and he smelled it again, "The name of this dish is interesting, and it smells very fragrant."

He looked at Bai Susu, "The old man is going to grab another chicken, please do it for me, okay?"

"No, you can't finish eating the left and right chickens." Bai Susu looked at Zhou Ximing, "How about eating together?"

After all, Zhou Ximing's status is quite special, if she wants to let the old man stay, she still wants to ask his opinion, if it causes any unnecessary trouble, then forget it.

"Well, let's go together." Zhou Ximing put away the dagger in his hand, still sat there, took out the handkerchief in his hand, and wiped the sweat off her forehead.

Bai Susu thought it was nothing before, but when there was someone watching, Bai Susu always felt a little embarrassed.She raised her hand to take the veil, and quickly wiped off the sweat on her cheeks.

The old man sat cross-legged on the spot, watching the actions of the two of them, with a smile in his eyes and envy in his eyes, "Are you newlyweds?"
