Follow Taotie to eat meat [Traveling]

The fact that the princess was almost tied up was not a trivial matter after all. The person who did it was either too stupid or too impatient, or he really came prepared.

Although the former is more likely based on the Eldest Princess' understanding of her arrogant and stupid younger brother, but the fact that she was able to almost kidnap someone from under her nose is probably because someone was helping him with a plan.If this is the case, we must guard against his subsequent moves.

To be able to get to where she is today, the eldest princess is more cautious and decisive than ordinary people. Although the two of them just made her care a little bit, she obviously has more important things to do right now.Immediately picked up the baby sister and flew on the horse, with a wave of his hand, he led most of the people to retreat, leaving only a small part to investigate carefully.

These people were obviously well-trained, and those who retreated went away neatly, while some remained guarding the main road, and some asked carefully what happened, but they did not disturb the normal order in the south of the city at all.The gate of the city quickly returned to bustle. Some people whispered the story of this mighty princess, and some people just saw those big men chasing the little girl and talked for a while, but more people still hurried in and out, busy mind their own business.

There were also inspections near the camp of the One-Armed Country, and it was conducted in a similarly low-key manner, without hindering people from doing things or stopping curious people from gossiping.

Xiao Yan pretended not to see it, and happily returned to the tent with Tao Tie all the way.

Before, I was busy talking about grilling skewers and collecting money, and then a little loli ran out, and now I have time to take a good inventory of today's harvest.This count made Xiao Yan happy.

I used dozens of spirit stones to buy ingredients, and after a day of grilling skewers, I actually earned more than 500 spirit stones, which is a huge profit.

One spirit stone can buy a leg of lamb, and eight spirit stones can buy a whole sheep.One Lingshi is equal to thirty Lingzhu, and one Lingzhu can buy a handful of common vegetarian dishes.In this way, I definitely belong to the high-income group among the high-income group!It's much easier than working overtime before crossing.

"Grilling skewers is still too simple. It's easy for others to follow suit. It's not easy to see the way of sour plum soup. No, I'll go and buy all the remaining oranges." Xiao Yan was full of energy, rubbing He stood up and was about to rush out.

Taotie grabbed him by the collar and dragged him back: "What's the rush, this Nanji is open until night, let's take a rest first, look at your sweaty face."

Taotie himself spewed fire when he disagreed with him, this scorching weather didn't do much harm to him, at most he would break out in a thin layer of sweat.But Xiao Yan was different. After most of the day, his face was flushed and his back was covered with sweat.

"Hey, it's okay, it's okay, this little heat is nothing." Xiao Yan wiped off his sweat indifferently. He used to work part-time during the summer vacation to earn tuition fees, but it was much more tiring than this.

Taotie took a clay pot and filled it with water, and threw a cloth towel into it: "Wipe!"

Washed the plate of fruit again: "Eat."

Xiao Yan blinked, looked at Taotie who was doing all this so smoothly, obediently wiped his face and neck with a cloth towel, and washed his hands again.A little wind blows in the tent, not to mention, it's much more refreshing.

After sitting for a while, the old man Zhi came back in a hurry.Apart from a bunch of animals following behind him, there was also a chubby person.

Still an old man.Although the chin beard is sparse, the hair is all white, slightly long, and messy like a bird's nest.Really fat, with a round belly, chubby hands and feet that flick when walking, and layers of chins.Probably too fat, the wrinkles on his face stretched out, not so old.

He and Zhi, one fat and one thin, one white and one black, walked in front of each other, looking very happy.

"Old man, who is this?" Xiao Yan asked with some doubts after saying hello.

Not long ago, when he was still at the barbecue stand, he actually met the old man.At that time, there was no such person, and the old man also looked unhappy.The reason is that although the animals were bought by his small gifts and all agreed to continue to sell their stalls, the effect of performing arts today is quite mediocre.

Because it was rumored everywhere in the city, there was an idea at the gate of the city, do you want to go and see if you want to try it... There is a lot of chatter, and no one is willing to answer the old man's hard singing.The idle people ran out to watch the excitement, while the busy people had no time to pay attention, and the small stall was a bit bleak.

In a rage, the old man moved the stall outside the city.He wants to see what new gadget is so attractive that he is on the verge of unemployment.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of the city, I saw dozens of newly built barbecue stalls: "..."

The old man was very angry. He felt that people all over the city gave up the incomparably elegant art because of a little appetite, which was simply the most typical manifestation of human nature and vulgarity.He angrily sat down where he was, knocked on the basin and sang an impromptu allegorical song. This time it was even more sad, and the people who were busy grabbing food didn't even bother to turn their heads.

The old man was inexplicably sad and indignant, and there were scents coming in from the end of his nose, so he got up angrily, squeezed to Xiao Yan's side angrily, gnawed a few strings angrily... and swipe a few more strings angrily, Angrily turned and left.

Xiao Yan couldn't laugh or cry when he saw it, and comforted him that it was a novelty for a while, and his songs had eternal charm, and he didn't see the old man happy much.

I haven't seen him for a while, but now the old man is smiling brightly, as if he was a different person in front of him.

"Oh, this is the old man's new friend, that is, a very interesting old brother from the north." Zhi patted the fat old man's shoulder, introduced with a smile, and showed a little flattery to Xiao Yan, "Xiao Yan Ah, Little Fox... Brother Xiao, can you make us something to eat? Let my new friend see your handicraft."

The chubby one stood with a smile on his face: "Hi, hello, actually, I'm just here to see the interesting friend that Zhizhi said, let's get acquainted, food or something, it's too much trouble, you just do your own thing."

Well, as long as you are familiar with it, what can you not eat?The fat old man stroked his chin and continued to think with a smile.

Having said that, Xiao Yan naturally wouldn't be negligent, and immediately said: "It's easy to talk about, it's not troublesome at all, and it will be done soon, just wait for a while."

I dragged out a simple bench made by the Chinese people in the past few days, and invited them to sit, while hurriedly preparing it.

Taotie was very dissatisfied with his daughter-in-law who had to rest for a while and was busy with work, so he secretly gave the old man a look.Zhi didn't shy away from it, and shouted loudly: "Oh, I know you love your little... little daughter-in-law, the old man knows a lot, so I won't tire him too much... Xiao Yan, we can't eat much, you can do whatever you want Just order it."

He is used to barking like a little fox, and he couldn't change his mouth for a while, so he temporarily changed into a little daughter-in-law in front of everyone, and the Chinese people who came and went with him laughed kindly, which made Xiao Yan blush: "Old man, Just sit down and rest."

The fat old man wasn't idle either. After sitting for a while, he leaned over to Xiao Yan's side and admired his skillful stir-frying movements.

Xiao Yan was a little curious about friends who were smart, and chatted with them a few times, and found that even he could be called a naturalist. He knew a little about astronomy and geography, and There are a lot of strange unpopular knowledge, no wonder you can get together with Zhizhi.

However, the acquaintance of the two was that it was too boring for Zhi to guard a stall that no one cared about, so he stopped singing and played the oxhorn chess that he invented together with the fat old man who was panting beside him.

This kind of horn-shaped range is divided into connected ones, two chess pieces try to force the other chess piece to the top of the small game, and the opponent loses. I didn’t get started at the beginning, and I lost in a row. I almost took off my clothes and lost. Give wisdom.The two chatted together, and then gradually started to play, Zhi threw the chess piece away again, saying that he was hungry and should come back for dinner.

Baibai Chubby narrated this experience with a smile and said in admiration: "The intelligence is so powerful that I can hardly run."

Zhi, who was sitting not far away, smiled, and proudly shook the spirit stone bag he had won at Xiao Yan: "He lost a big gemstone ring to me, I bet it must be very, very, very expensive !"

That is to say, he continued to smile with a good temper: "Then you must not exchange it for the spirit stone. It is a treasure handed down in my family. I will take the spirit stone to redeem it with you in a few days."

The old man swung Erlang's legs up and down: "Then you have to hurry up, maybe one day the old man will be short of spirit stones."

Xiao Yan and Taotie's heads were full of black lines, no matter how you look at this situation, it's a fool who was deceived by wisdom, right?Still in the form of gambling, it's a big pit.

Xiao Yan said helplessly: "Old man, we have no shortage of spirit stones. You can return the ring to your old age. After all, it is a family heirloom."

If you meet someone with a hot temper, why don't you beat the old man up in a rage?It's also good luck.

The old man clutched the bag: "If you don't pay it back, why do you have to pay it back for nothing?"

That is to say, continue to be a good person: "Haha, it's okay, I'm willing to bet and admit defeat. I was the first to propose and place a bet. It's my fault that I was eager to win for a while."

He rubbed his fat face in confusion again: "Brother Xiao Yan, I look very old? Why do I call me old? Well, although I am not young, I think I look young. Just call me... Well, I'm getting old, so I can't hear people adding old words."

Zhi Chongtian rolled his eyes and said, "It's hypocritical, it's hypocritical."

Xiao Yan: "..."

Well, for these two people, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, he really has nothing to do with it.

Xiao Yan stewed a pot of rice, fried a few side dishes with meat and vegetables, boiled another pot of fresh lotus root and ribs soup, and fried half of the rice with assorted diced vegetables mixed with diced meat, and served it on the table , the two old men gulped their saliva and began to pick up the rice, full of vague praise.

Xiao Yan lived alone for a long time in his previous life, and all kinds of home-cooked dishes are not a problem. Occasionally, he would invite a few friends back to his residence for a meal, but he has never received so many compliments, and he is in a good mood.Before the crossing, there were all kinds of delicious food outside. Everyone ate while shouting to diet and lose weight to keep fit, men and women were no exception. Seeing people here devour all the food, it is still... quite appetizing.

Xiao Yan carefully picked off the crispy rice, fried a little oil on the slate, fried the crispy rice on both sides until golden and crispy, stuffed a big piece of gluttonous rice, and gnawed a piece by himself, waving his claws at the old man: "Eat slowly, Let's go for a walk."

Those who were also immersed in the food, such as skin fish and parrots that turned into snakes, waved their wings indiscriminately to say goodbye, but Zhiheji's movements were quite consistent, and at the same time they picked up the bowl and ate while looking anxiously at the crispy rice in Xiao Yan and Taotie's hands.

Taotie suddenly became alert, chewed and swallowed the delicious crispy rice in two mouthfuls.

Zhi Zhi's eyes moved from his hand to Xiao Yan's mouth reluctantly: "Ming, make me the one you eat tomorrow!"

"...Okay." Xiao Yan was about to kneel to the old naughty boy, and then looked at Ji, who was hesitating to speak, "That is... will you be around here tomorrow? I can do it for you too."

That is to say, he was very satisfied with Xiao Yan's gracious omission of the word "old", and got the promise again, and smiled again: "Then I will definitely come."

With food in his mouth, his voice was muffled.

Xiao Yan has black lines all over his head.

The two wandered to Nanji, Taotie said depressedly: "There's one more guy who wants to eat."

Xiao Yan laughed: "The old man was cheated of all his belongings by Zhi, and he would starve to death if he didn't eat."

Taotie was noncommittal.

This time, the two of them didn't need to sell furs, so they could finally take a good look around Nanji.The fish here is quite cheap. It is said that in everyone’s opinion, the fish meat is slippery many times, and it is strange to eat in the mouth. Only when you are too poor to afford meat, you will buy some fish to make do.

Xiao Yan happened to be getting tired of barbecue, so he bought a lot of various fish from Lingshi, and most of them were still alive. Because of the large quantity, the stall owner directly asked someone to help send them out of the city.Conch mussels were even less popular. When Xiao Yan proposed to buy them, several stall owners said that since they were big customers, they would just send them away.

I even encountered some big crabs tied firmly with fine hemp ropes. It is said that they are quite flooded on a river beach not far from here, because they are not pleasing to say a word, and have a temperament of wielding their pliers. The shell with almost no meat is completely unappealing here.

The stall owner who sells crabs said that he was caught by a big crab on his toe while fishing, and he caught more than a dozen bundles in a fit of anger, but he didn't expect to sell them.

Thinking of the delicacy of rice wine paired with steamed hairy crabs, Xiao Yan swallowed silently.

Although it's not autumn, the crab paste is not enough, but the crab looks big and meaty, and it is pure natural and pollution-free, and the taste is definitely good, so I immediately bought a handful of Lingzhu and bought them all.

Xishan is rich in products. Although the number of animals in the mountains has decreased recently, the largest Nanji in the west is still full of all kinds of prey.

Taotie introduced to Xiao Yan as he walked.That quail-like fat yellow bird is fat, eating it can kill insects, and many monsters with stomachaches like to find some of this little bird to eat.The thing with horns on its head is a mole. Although it is small, it is actually quite fierce and can eat people.That big red fish is carnivorous, and the meat itself is delicate and delicious, and the taste is quite good...

Xiao Yan listened carefully, and bought those who were interested. Anyway, Taotie has great strength, and there is no pressure to pack and carry on his body.

There was a pile of green grass on a stand, with long and thin stalks, and the horizontal lines were not ordinary round, but square, with palm-shaped leaves and small red flowers blooming. Some have already thanked, revealing small black fruits.After a long distance, you can smell a burst of fragrance.

Many people gathered in front of the stall. Xiao Yan thought it was a delicious dish, but the stall owner yelled: "Lavage, lavender, you won't be afraid of miasma if you take it out—"

Xiao Yan watched many people take out their spirit beads one after another, and curiously grabbed a person who had just bought a few: "Is there a lot of miasma around? Why do you all buy this?"

The terrain around the Husband Country is open, extending to the vicinity of the original Yiarm Country, and there is no particularly complicated terrain. It stands to reason that it is not easy to form a poisonous miasma.

As a result, the man shook his head: "There were almost none before, but now there are more and more of them. If you accidentally walk a mountain road or something, you will get sick when you come back. Buy some of these, please feel at ease."

"So serious?" Xiao Yan was a little surprised.

When I first met the Chinese people, I only heard them complain about the lack of prey, and some of them still had a rancid smell. Now people can easily get sick?

"No, there's something wrong with this world. It's in chaos. Things that can remove poisonous miasma and cure diseases are selling well. You should also buy some just in case, or you can ask the god of the mountains. It is said that It’s very effective! It’s just that the sacrifices are too much.” The man said again.

Xiao Yan thought it was similar to the old man's entertaining dance, and was a little curious about how many sacrifices could be made.

As a result, I was shocked when I heard it. This time, the mountain god does not recognize the group but only the individual. Everyone who wants to ask for his protection has to make a full offering of "Hundred Sacrifice, Baiyu, Baijiu, Baigui, Baibi" just work.That is to say, sacrifices such as 100 cattle and sheep, 100 pieces of beautiful jade, [-] bottles of wine, [-] yuan of jade, and [-] yuan of jade are required.

Simply sky-high.

"So ruthless? Is there anyone willing to go?" Xiao Yan asked in surprise.

"But it works. It is said that after offering sacrifices to these, a wooden sign will appear on the altar the next day. As long as you bring it, you will not be afraid even if you are surrounded by poisonous miasma. It will be scattered wherever you go. There is only one life. Baby, as long as you have the ability, you will get it even if you lose your fortune." The man sighed, and then muttered to himself, "However, I haven't heard much about the mountain god of Yuci before, probably because his name is too low. Well, there is no way, there are too many mountain gods in the ancient legends in the west..."

After chatting for a while, when Xiao Yan walked around again, he found that in some particularly popular stalls, the stall owners were all emphasizing the medicinal value of the animals and plants they sold.

He suspected that the poisonous miasma was evil spirit, but he didn't expect it to become so rampant within a few days.

Thinking of Zhong Shanyu in his body, Xiao Yan felt a little worried, walked all the way forward, and accidentally touched a stall.

On the stand was a horse-like animal, but much smaller, about the size of a sheep.Its head is white with dark orange stripes, but its tail is fiery red.Xiao Yan hurriedly apologized, but the other party smiled and waved his hands to show that nothing happened, then asked Taotie what kind of animal it was.

Taotie was not a know-it-all either, he looked left and right, but still shook his head.

The stall owner immediately got excited: "Customer, this thing is called Lushu, and it's very rare to find a way to transport it all the way from the southernmost point. The meat is very tender, do you want to try it?"

As he spoke, he looked at the huge pile of things that Taotie was carrying, and probably thought there was something for him, and immediately recommended it strongly, praising the taste of this meat as the best in the world, and finally looked at the two of them suddenly, revealing a bit of gossip Xixi smiled: "You two, do you have a partner?"

Xiao Yan and Taotie looked at each other, a little confused about what Lu Shu had to do with having a partner, but they nodded honestly.

So the stall owner smiled even more happily: "Oh, that's right, don't miss this Lushu. It is said that in the south, when you marry your sweetheart, the newlyweds must eat Lushu meat at the wedding banquet! It symbolizes a hundred years Great fit!"

Hehe, Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows, the marketing of the original version, pretending to be a gimmick, isn't it the same as the golden fruit?

He is not a person who consumes irrationally. Although the owner of the stall talks about the hype, if the price is not fair, Xiao Yan will still refuse it mercilessly: "How to sell it?"

"It's cheap and cheap. It only costs ten spirit stones for a leg, and it's even more cost-effective for a whole head. It only costs two yellow crystals." The stall owner laughed like a flower.

Pfft... This little animal wants two yellow crystals, you might as well grab the money, Xiao Yan choked back a mouthful of old blood.

Just as he was about to pull Taotie away, he saw this guy's eyes sparkle: "Come here!"

Xiao Yan: "..."

Is it too late to kill this loser now?
