Piercing the Heart [Sword Three]

As for why Qi Cheng knew what kind of mooncakes Li Tang likes to eat, it actually has to be traced back to two days before the sword fight.

That day, Li Tang, Xu Buhui, and Bai Shuangming, three idlers, were leisurely sitting in the courtyard to digest their food after dinner, passing on gossip news by the way.

Of course, Xu Buhui is mainly responsible for the gossip news, Li Tang is responsible for asking questions and applauding the face, and Bai Shuangming is mainly responsible for eating cakes and listening to gossip.

Xu Buhui, who said his mouth was dry, took a sip of tea, and seemed to suddenly think of something.

"By the way, the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching. I wonder what kind of mooncakes the two friends like? I just want to order some by the way. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the three of us strangers can get together." Xu Buhui asked.

Li Tang: "Egg yolk, if there is no pure egg yolk stuffing, egg yolk lotus paste is also good." He didn't mind choking.

Bai Shuangming: "Ice-skinned lotus paste, if there is no pure lotus paste filling, egg yolk lotus paste is also good." Even if it is a mooncake, he wants white ones.

"Brother Bai likes white food so much..." Li Tang looked at Bai Shuangming maliciously, "Do you know about pickled peppers and chicken feet?" Guaranteed that Bai is scary.

Xu Buhui: "What about the ones you don't like?"

Li Tang thought about it for a while, and suddenly said: "The stuffing with five kernels or the stuffing with green and red silk."

Bai Shuangming: "It's not white, I hate it."

Xu Buhui nodded with a smile, the information is in hand!

……

I would never think of buying them on weekdays, but if someone gave them to me, I would definitely eat them as a meal. This is Li Tang's attitude towards mooncakes.

There are three layers of mooncakes in total. The first layer is marked with egg yolk, but is actually filled with five kernels. Li Tang put it down after taking a bite. It’s not that he hates five kernels, it’s just that he doesn’t like them enough. .

After all, my favorite is egg yolk lotus seed paste. It is understandable that the greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.

If there is no other stuffing, it is okay to eat five kernels, but if there are other flavors of mooncakes, Li Tang will eat that flavor first.

The mooncakes on the second and third floors of the food box have been taken out. Among the three plates of mooncakes in front of Li Tang, except for the plate of Wuren, the remaining two plates are one with jujube paste printed on it, and the other plate with five kernels. Benevolence.

Li Tang unbelievingly picked up the piece with Wuren printed on it and tasted it, he decided to give Qi Chenghe another chance, what if it was just printed wrongly?

One bite, there is no doubt that it is still Wuren. Li Tang picked up the date paste again unbelievingly. Fortunately, God didn't play with him this time, and the date paste is still date paste.

Just ...

Looking at the abrupt blue and red strands in the red and black jujube paste, Li Tang suddenly became expressionless.

After breaking apart the three mooncakes to try, there was no surprise that there were green and red threads. Li Tang suddenly understood Qi Cheng's "good intentions".

Qi Chengtao is really obsessed with letting him eat green, or red, shredded vegetables and fruits!

Ha ha!

Outside the door, Qi Guang anxiously listened to the movement, the young master's yell just now was so shrill, it scared Qi Guang enough.

"Qiguang..." Li Tang opened the door, clutching his chest in frustration, "Bring me some paper bags."

Qi Guang quickly took out the paper bag he carried with him.

Li Tang: "By the way, are the mooncakes at home all the same?" He needs to know if he is being treated differently.

Qi Guang smirked: "It's all the same, Qi Guang tasted it, although it's not the best, but it has a special flavor."

By Qi Cheng's side, Qi Guang naturally had a lot of delicious food.

"Then I'm relieved." Li Tang showed a ferocious smile, and then slammed the door shut, "Go to sleep, I'm going to sleep too."

"Young Master..." After the bedroom door was closed, Qi Guang wandered around the door for a while before turning back to the room to rest.

This night, he slept very unsteadily, fearing that the young master would be overwhelmed and eat moon cakes to make himself alive.

Li Tang looked at the top of the bed and sighed quietly, this is about love.

What a failure!

Is there something wrong with his person and style of painting?

Other people's family relationships are sweet and sweet, you and I wish we could live as conjoined twins, and from time to time, the years will be quiet and peaceful, and the world will be stable and sweet to the end.

Qi Cheng was good, the first time we met, he took advantage of his unconsciousness, and threw him off the cliff; the second time we met, he pushed him to sell the character of Mr. Good; the third time he directly strangled his neck.

Although Qi Cheng saved himself many times later, but this workaholic black/boss/Da Tiantian also has no good intentions, and from time to time he does something, and what he does does not kill two birds with one stone. If the benefits are not doubled, he will be at a disadvantage... …

Not to mention pretty attractive.

Or go out and smash the field to grab the site.

The promised years are quiet and peaceful, how about the stability in this world?

After the relationship was established, Li Tang, who was under strict supervision, wiped away tears that did not exist. Seeing that he was handsome and in good shape, he could bear it.

Anyway, he is a stamped scum!

Qi Cheng, who was on his way to kill and set fire, said, "Ha Qiu!"

Bai Shuangming: "I have clothes here, do you want to wear them on you?"

Qi Cheng: "No, thank you!"

Just like Bai Shuangming's abhorrence of black, Qi Cheng doesn't call white clothes, especially Bai Shuangming's clothes.

******

On the second day, when Li Tang arrived at the medicine hall with the wrapped mooncakes and meals, he saw that Zheng Yi was already able to get out of bed and walk around.

Not only is he able to move around, he is also packing his clothes.

Looking at the luggage piled on the table, Li Tang tentatively asked: "Brother Zheng, are you going back?"

After searching around, Li Tang didn't see Mrs. Zheng's body, so Brother Zheng had already made arrangements for it.

"Hmm..." Zheng Yi carefully wrapped the clothes that Li Cuiniang sewed for him in a package. This was his only remaining treasure, and he would never wear them again from now on.

"Brother Tang, sit down, I'm going to leave this afternoon." Zheng Yi poured Li Tang a cup of tea.

"Is it so early?" Li Tang asked worriedly, "But your injury is really too serious."

"People who practice martial arts have a strong body and good resilience." Zheng Yi said, "After a night of recuperation, the internal injuries have been temporarily controlled, and the external injuries are nothing."

"I'm going to take Cuiniang to Tianshan." Zheng Yi said, "Brother Tang, I'll write to you after we find a foothold in Tianshan."

Zheng Yi: "Will you still stay in Qishan during this time?"

"I might be going to the capital." Li Tang sighed, "I don't know what it's like to be in the capital. If Brother Zheng wants to contact me, you can send the letter to Boss Xu first, and he will forward it."

According to what Qi Cheng meant, Xu Buhui might stay in Qishan for a while, and then go to other places to continue collecting information.

"Alright." Zheng nodded, "Is Master Qi also there?"

Although Zheng Yi didn't care about the turmoil in Jianghu, it didn't mean that his news was blocked.

Especially the news about Li Tang and Qi Cheng worried them even more.

"He's out on errands." Li Tang sighed, "Maybe he'll have to come back tomorrow night."

Zheng Yi: "It's a pity that I can't thank him personally, can you thank him for me? Thank him for the Ningbi Pearl."

To Zheng Yi, this bead is extremely useful to keep the body alive for a month.

Li Tang: "..."

It is worthy of being the leader of the pass/sales.

"Patriarch Qi is kind, and Zheng Yi will keep it in mind. If Patriarch Qi encounters troubles in the future, please write to Zheng Yi. Maybe Zheng Yi can do his best."

Qi Cheng is wooing him, Zheng Yi is clear, in the past, Zheng Yi would not easily owe favors, but I have to say, Qi Cheng is too good at being a man, and the Ningbi beads sent by someone, Zheng Yi is completely unable to do so. reject.

Li Tang: "Hehe"

"He called you big brother, and it's the little brother's job to give big brother a meeting gift." Li Tang said.

Zheng Yi shook his head disapprovingly: "Are you having trouble with Master Qi?"

"Brother Zheng, these three words are awkward..."

"It's easy to say, I have a deep hatred with him..." Li Tang said through gritted teeth.

It seems that there is an awkwardness.

Zheng Yi nodded clearly.

Li Tang: "I brought some food, before leaving, let's have something to eat first."

Zheng Yi: "Alright, it just so happens that I haven't had dinner with my friends for a long time."

The silent sword trembled slightly.

"After yesterday, it is much more lively that it can make the sound of the sword." Zheng Yi looked at Ai Jian tenderly, "After Cui Niang left, it was lucky to have it by my side."

Maybe it's because I can't bear to be too lonely.

The sword of the sword cultivator shows signs of becoming fine...

It seems that there is nothing incomprehensible.

Li Tang hurriedly speeded up the search for the bowls and chopsticks.

……

after lunch

The specially-made carriage compartment is large enough to hold a coffin, so there is no need to worry about the wind and sun.

The inside and outside of the coffin were covered with scriptures. Li Tang looked in awe, so he didn't rush to help carry the coffin, but carefully urged the coffin shop to put the coffin away.

The carriage was sent by Qi Cheng, and the groom seemed to belong to Qi Cheng, so Zheng Yi, who didn't have to worry about driving, was directly supported by Li Tang, and got into the carriage.

The carriage is a strong and strong man, although he is not tall, he looks extremely solid and reliable, he looks like a practicing family.

"Young Master Tang, don't worry." The coachman said, "The medicinal materials, medicine furnace, charcoal fire and so on that Zheng Daxia needs are all ready, and I guarantee that Zheng Daxia can drink the medicine in time."

"That's good." Qi Cheng was much more careful than him.

It's no wonder that the buyer always accepts one.

"These are some mooncakes, just right to cushion your stomach on the road." Li Tang handed the mooncakes to him.

"And this is what Mrs. Zheng left for me before." The small cloth bag was stuffed into Zheng Yi's hand together with the mooncake.

Zheng Yi: "This is Cuiniang's needlework." Although the embroidery is not very good, it is extremely meticulous and neat.

"By the way, Brother Tang..." Zheng Yi hesitated to speak, "Master Qi and Young Master Bai..."

Li Tang: "What happened to them?"

"They are all excellent young people." Zheng Yi persuaded, "Master Qi is someone who can be entrusted with being cautious and careful. Although Mr. Bai is a little edgy, he is still very reliable. The two of them..."

They are all young people who Zheng Yiwang likes. He doesn't know who the Tang brothers will choose. They can only send them to the losers so that they won't get hurt too much.

Li Tang put down the curtain of the car: "Let's go quickly."

The coachman drove away immediately.

Zheng Yi, who didn't have time to say goodbye: "..."

Is it almost Mid-Autumn Festival?

The first thing to open was Cui Niang's cloth bag. Zheng Yi looked at the bank notes inside and suddenly covered his eyes.

He owed too much, even if he risked his life, he would repay Brother Tang and the others.

After solemnly putting away the cloth bag, Zheng Yi opened the oiled paper bag and looked at the pieces of moon cakes. He couldn't help but think of last year's Mid-Autumn Festival, when he took Cui Niang to seek medical treatment. The last Mid-Autumn Festival for the two of them.

The money was almost exhausted, so they only bought two pieces of mooncakes, and kept one piece carefully, waiting for Cui Niang to eat some bitter taste after drinking the medicine, and they shared the other piece.

Even though they have been married for more than [-] years, their relationship is as sweet as when they got married.

After entering the mooncake marked with egg yolk, Zheng Yi: "..."

ah?Is it actually Wuren's?

******

On August [-]th, Qi Cheng, the leader of the demon sect in the Western Regions, and Bai Shuangming, the deputy leader, raided the Baiye Gate in Qizhou. The Baiye Gate lost to the enemy and suffered heavy losses.

Originally thought that the target of Qi Cheng's attack would be the Baiyemen of the Qishan School, but he was caught off guard.

Nearly a hundred years away from Central Earth, the Demon Sect of the Western Regions could not be more mysterious in the eyes of the Central Plains Zhengdao, but the head of the Baiye Sect was not so worried.

This leader, Qi Cheng, has been famous for a long time, and his martial arts methods are known to everyone. The head of the Baiye Sect thought he would not be so difficult to deal with, but who would have thought that this scum would directly abandon the Qi family's mental method and Tianyu swordsmanship, and change to the Demon Sect The ghost's heart method, completely unfamiliar martial arts methods, directly knelt down to the sect master and the elders in the sect.

There is also the sword demon Baishuangming Luezhen to assist Qi Cheng, so the Demon Sect of the Western Regions successfully achieved the achievement of winning more with less with less than ten people.

The higher-ups couldn't let them go, but Qi Cheng, the bottom-level disciple, didn't kill them all. He only killed a few of the happiest and most loyal ones, and successfully took over the power of the Baiyemen.

So far, Qishan faction is the only one left in Qizhou that can deal with the demon sects of the Western Regions.

On the same day, Qi Cheng returned to Zaiying Town.

It is not accurate to say that it was the same day. When Qi Cheng came back, it was in the early morning of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Calculated according to Jiansan time, he could barely be counted as coming back on August [-]th.

After sending Zheng Yi away at noon on August [-]th, Li Tang went back to sleep immediately after returning. According to his instructions, Qi Guang woke up Li Tang at the moment of Haishi.

In the kitchen, the water had been boiled several times. Li Tang, who didn't need Qi Guang to serve him, simply asked him to concentrate on looking at the water. According to Qi Cheng's footsteps, he should take a bath immediately after returning.

This wait is three hours.

When there was movement at the door, Li Tang had just finished cutting the last piece of mooncake. During these three hours, he did nothing, but concentrated on ruining all the mooncakes. One piece of mooncake was cut to eight or eight pieces and then reassembled and arranged on the plate. .

When Qi Cheng entered the door, what he saw was Li Tang swaying in the shadow of the lamp, sitting quietly in the room with a smiling face, waiting for them.

"You are back." Seeing Qi Cheng hesitating at the door, not knowing whether to enter, Li Tang walked out of the room with a smile. In the cold moonlight, he looked very handsome.

"I want to take a bath." Bai Shuangming, who wrapped herself tightly in a white cloak, quickly took off the cloak.

Very good, another freshly baked red dress.

"Qiguang has already boiled the water." Li Tang held the plate and said to Qi Cheng and the others, "You guys go take a bath first, and I'll make you supper." He said and went straight to the kitchen.

The green pepper slices and radish slices have already been cut. Although they are no longer juicy and fresh as they were when they were cut, Li Tang didn't care. After stir-frying for a while, Li Tang served the vegetables.

Anyway, there is nothing wrong with eating these few things raw, so it doesn't matter if they are half-baked.

Anyway, he had finished supper early, and it wasn't Li Tang who ate with Qi Cheng and the others, and he was still cooking perfunctorily today.

In the middle of the night, it is better to cook some noodles. Li Tang, who always likes the flavor in noodle soup, cheerfully added half a bag of salt and half a bag of lying down, and directly put down a handful of noodles.

There is no need to pay attention to the big pot of rice.

After Li Tang finished his work, he hurriedly called Qi Guang to help serve the dishes. Under the terrified eyes of the children, Li Tang prepared the meals.

And Qi Cheng, who took a battle bath, has already got out of the tub.

Master Qi felt a little uneasy.

"Hurry up and eat." After picking out the noodles, Li Tang urged with a smile while holding the bowl, "It's too late, there are not many ingredients left, so you just eat it."

Qi Cheng, who was almost pushed down on the chair, looked at the dishes in front of him, unable to recover for a long time.

The freshly baked fried mooncakes look very good. After putting a few pieces of fried mooncakes into the noodle bowl, Li Tang said, "This is the ninth famous dish in my hometown. Try it, it tastes good."

If Qi Cheng dared to play with Li Tang on the five-nut mooncake stalk, Li Tang dared to reciprocate and fried the five-nut mooncake stalk to Qi Cheng.

Of course, fried mooncakes are such a heaven-defying dish that he had never experienced them in his student days, so he didn't know exactly what they were like. It was considered the ultimate taste.

Seeing Li Tang's smiling face, Qi Cheng, who was playing with it, resignedly picked up a piece and put it in his mouth.

Then he breathed a sigh of relief, although it was a little weird, but he could say it anyway, and Qi Jiaozhu, who has always paid attention to health preservation, still has a very strong stomach.

After eating a few yuan for saving face, Qi Chengmian praised without changing his face and heartbeat: "I have been missing you for more than ten days after we were separated, and you have cooked dishes. It is really touching to eat again today." .”

Li Tang, who was temporarily silenced by Shun Mao: "Are you a cat? You have such a small appetite."

Judging from Qi Cheng's appetite, the orange cat can kill him instantly.

Qi Cheng, who thought he had escaped and ascended to heaven, was relieved, and then stretched his chopsticks into the noodle bowl. Although it looked bland, it was just boiled noodles in clear water, but the leader Qi who can endure hardships didn't care about it at all.

After the noodle entrance...

Qi Cheng: "..."

He took back what he said earlier.

"The essence of this bowl of noodles lies in the soup." Li Tang said with a smile.

After barely swallowing the noodles, Qi Cheng covered his mouth: "After a busy day, after being hit by blood, my appetite has also been affected."

Li Tang smiled without saying a word.

"Okay." Seeing that Qi Cheng was hesitant to finish the rest of the noodles, Li Tang, who was in a happy mood, showed mercy and bypassed Qi Cheng: "Take care of your hair first, and I will deliver the supper to you later." in the room."

Qi Cheng suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Is this retribution?

"Supper is ready?" Bai Shuangming came in wiping his sword after just taking a bath.

Seeing that there was no meat on the table, Bai Shuangming frowned. He had always had a good appetite, but he was very hungry at this time, so he didn't pay too much attention to the issue of meat, and directly attacked the fried mooncakes.

"The taste is a bit strange." Bai Shuangming concluded.

He has never eaten this kind of dish.

After my eyesight and hands are about to fill up a bowl of noodles...

"The taste is a bit stinky." Bai Shuangming concluded.

Li Tang: "..."

Qi Cheng: "..."

Isn't his sense of taste a bit dull?

……

The night is still as cold as water...

Li Tang, who finally survived the dog days, happily slapped a mosquito to death.

The fifteenth day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar would be September in the Gregorian calendar. The capital of the Ying Dynasty was in the north, and Qizhou, which was not far from the capital, naturally wouldn't be too hot.

His biological clock tends to be disturbed. Seeing that the lights in other people's rooms were all off, he simply jumped on the roof. As a young man whose childhood was "Wulin Biography", Li Tang naturally had a good impression of the roof.

A plate of mooncakes was handed to him again, and when Li Tang frowned and was about to refuse, Qi Cheng broke open the mooncakes.

The color of the egg yolk looks pretty nice.

Qi Cheng: "Today's moon is quite round."

Li Tang: "Yes."

Under the bright moon, the person you like is sitting next to you, and the atmosphere is quite in place, it is naturally difficult for the young people who are full of blood to suppress their emotions. Just in the hands of Li Tang and Qi Cheng, they slowly approached and touched together At that time, Li Tang suddenly thought of something...

"Brother Bai, aren't you sleepy?"

Sitting between him and Qi Cheng, what does he mean?

Doesn't it only happen in campus novels that people turn their backs and secretly sign hands behind Bai Shuangming's back?

Why is it so difficult to hold hands openly?

Bai Shuangming: "Not sleepy."

Because of the word Ming in his name, Bai Shuangming likes Mingyue very much.
