Chapter 138 Yu Sanlang Returns Safely

Yu Hongdou was just telling Wen Daozhi that they could try using resin to burn off the sticky hair when she suddenly saw a dusty man walking in. She blinked before she recognized that the disheveled man was actually her father.

"Dad!" Yu Hongdou, who had never been separated from her father for such a long time, immediately got red in the eyes when she saw her father like this. She rushed over like a cannonball, grabbed her father's thighs and started crying.

I don’t know why, but ever since she traveled through time, her eye sockets have become shallower and shallower.

"Hey, Hong, don't cry, daddy is back~" Yu Sanlang picked up his daughter and wiped her little face with his big hands like a palm-leaf fan, leaving several gray marks on her fair and tender face.

Yu Sanlang paused for a moment, then moved his hand to his daughter's back and patted her as if nothing had happened.

"Dad, why didn't you come back for these days?" Yu Hongdou knew that her father had taken people to the mountains to find a dark room, but she really didn't expect her father to be busy for so long.

"Dad has gone to do some important things. I will tell you later. This must be Mr. Wen. My daughter is really grateful to you for your teaching. I am Yu Fu..." Yu Sanlang put his daughter down and bowed to Wen Daozhi.

Although he hadn't been back for a few days, he still knew what was going on at home. Yu Sanlang and his wife had the same thought about Wen Daozhi's arrival, which was that they were extremely grateful.

His daughter is very talented and should not be delayed by these troubles. Wen Daozhi's arrival is like timely help.

"Brother Yu, you are too polite. Hongdou is a very smart child. It is my honor to have a master-disciple relationship with her." Wen Daozhi still had the duck in his hand, but he was still graceful when he returned the gift.

Yu Hongdou smiled secretly, and she started to act like a teacher again.

Wen Daozhi probably has some social anxiety. He always unconsciously puts on airs when meeting strangers.

Yu Sanlang was really dirty, so he chatted with Wen Daozhi for a while, agreed to have a drink together later, and then said goodbye and went back to the backyard to wash up.

Yu Hongdou, unaware of the situation, continued plucking duck feathers with her teacher despite having a clown face.

"It's so tiring to eat a duck. If the duck skin wasn't best when roasted, I'd really like to just peel off the skin and eat it." Yu Hongdou, with a depressed look on her face, plucked the feathers one by one with a pair of iron pliers.

The resin and rosin plucking mentioned earlier are theoretically feasible, but both of them are very rare and expensive, and using them to pluck duck feathers is a waste of resources.

Yu Hongdou had no choice but to sigh and continue plucking duck feathers with the teacher.

When lunch was ready, Yu Hongdou saw the red and greasy roast duck on the table and she wanted to finish the whole one by herself. This was the result of her hard work!

"Brother Wen, I didn't expect you to have such a skill, it's simply amazing." When Yu Sanlang heard that the duck was roasted by Wen Daozhi himself, he praised it highly.

Yu Hongdou nodded proudly. The duck was indeed roasted well. It was worth it for her to find someone to build the oven and pluck the feathers herself.

There is no hanging oven roast duck method in Anbei County. The so-called roasting really means roasting it over fire, or wrapping it in mud and throwing it into the fire to roast.

Wen Daozhi's method is similar to the old Beijing roast duck method of later generations. He hangs the duck in the oven to roast and brushes it with seasonings many times. The roasted duck is almost comparable to that of a famous store in later generations.

"It's just a little thing. The Songhua Fortune Egg made with red beans is really good." Wen Daozhi waved his hand modestly, then turned to look at his little apprentice and praised him.

Yu Sanlang immediately laughed. He thought that anyone who sincerely praised his daughter was a good person.

The two of them got along better and better as they talked, and soon became close friends.

Yu Hongdou ate half a plate of roast duck with lotus leaf pancakes, and her stomach was so full that it felt like it was about to explode.

Just like her, Wangwang, who was squatting nearby and gnawing on a duck skeleton, had a bulging belly as well.

The owner and the dog left the dinner table with almost the same movements and expressions and went back to the backyard to digest their food.

The meal lasted until dark, and Yu Sanlang returned to the backyard with satisfaction and told his wife and daughter about his gains in the past few days.

"The people I brought this time are not from the county government, but from the Tan family." Yu Sanlang's face was filled with admiration and yearning when he mentioned this.

He also wanted to have such a group of capable people who could solve problems spontaneously without his command.

"I told you earlier that the Hidden Dragon Bagua was buried in Wudai Mountain. We traveled all five mountains this time. Except for the first ruin, we found nothing. However, we found the secret rooms in the other four mountains."

Yu Sanlang let out a long sigh, feeling exhausted when he thought of the hardships of the past few days.

"We found a lot of things in the four secret rooms, including gold, silver, and human bones. We also learned a lot of secrets hidden in the past."

"I just realized that there are so many bizarre things in the world. Although I don't know whether they are true or not, they sound mysterious and make people yearn for them."

Yu Sanlang was isolated from the Tan family because he knew too much information. The subordinate of the Tan family said that these things should be reported to the emperor. It would not be a good thing if he knew too much.

After hearing people's advice to eat a full meal, Yu Sanlang decisively avoided it. Even so, some miraculous things in the corners were enough for Yu Sanlang to tell his wife and daughter about their eye-opening stories.

Yu Hongdou had already been startled by the space carrier who traveled through time.

Now I hear something about a person falling with a falling star (meteorite).

What kind of desert people saw the city in the sky? There were tall buildings in the city, people were wearing strange clothes, and there were strange little iron boxes running around everywhere in the city.

Something like a huge iron ship was found in the sea, and on it there was a group of ghosts with red hair, green eyes and speaking bird language, etc.

Yu Hongdou no longer felt anything. She even had time to wonder, could this world be at the center of a time rift like in American TV dramas?

But that's not important, she is more worried about something else now.

"Dad, have you found the traces of the ancestors of Uncle Cao and Uncle Xu Da?" Yu Hongdou had always been worried that her father would encounter the meteorite that irradiated the Cao family during the search.

"No, no trace at all." Yu Sanlang shook his head.

"Your Uncle Xu helped a lot this time, but got nothing in return. I'm very disappointed." Yu Sanlang sighed.

Although I think finding it may not be a good thing, if not finding it, it will definitely be a bad thing for the Cao family and the villagers of Cigou Village.

"Oh, by the way, there is one more thing." When mentioning this, Yu Sanlang's face was full of joy.

"Hongdou, I have reported the gold mine under the gourd stone. There is a good prospector among the Tan family. After checking it out, he said that there is 100% gold here."

"The county magistrate said he would recommend an official position for me." After saying this, Yu Sanlang went to look at his wife and daughter. He saw that both mother and daughter widened their eyes at the same time, and raised the corners of their mouths at the same time, and could not help grinning.

He originally just wanted to give his wife and two children a wealthy life, but after seeing and feeling the power of the Tan family, his ambitions became greater.
