Jianghu are all masters

85.

Zhang Xiaoyuan squirted out the tea in his mouth in one gulp, spraying it all over the table, startled Jiang Jianyu, frowning and asked him: "Xiao Yuan, what are you doing?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan wanted to cry.

The second senior brother is too unlucky, right?They walked for a long time on the official road, and there were several wine shops and tea shops along the way, but he just chose a black shop.

It's over, will there be sweat medicine in the tea in the black shop?Will the black shop owner and the proprietress want to kill them and make human meat buns?The second senior brother and Hualiuque had already drank the tea, even Zhang Xiaoyuan took a sip, if the tea was really drugged...I'm afraid none of them could escape.

Among them, it seems that only the elder brother has not drunk the tea yet.

Seeing that Lu Zhaoming was slowly picking up the teacup, Zhang Xiaoyuan jumped forward in fright and held down Lu Zhaoming's hand. His action was so hasty that he knocked over the teacup in Lu Zhaoming's hand. What was in the teacup was With hot tea, Jiang Jianyu was taken aback by him again, and couldn't help saying loudly: "Little brother! You...you..."

He was suddenly dizzy and couldn't even control his tongue.

Hualiuque suddenly flopped down on the table, Jiang Jianyu was unconscious, and his eyes were blurred, Zhang Xiaoyuan just took a sip of the tea, but he felt dizzy and his legs were weak, thinking that the medicine in the tea must be extremely serious Fierce and powerful.

The owner of the black shop laughed and said, "It's okay, you're only left alone!"

Zhang Xiaoyuan's whole body was weak, he held his strength and said intermittently: "Then...then you guys are really miserable..."

The one remaining is the one who is the most difficult to deal with.

His body was wobbly and he was about to fall off the chair. As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a piercing sound in his ears. Lu Zhaoming kicked his chair out. Zhang Xiaoyuan couldn't sit still and leaned back. Seeing the big saber at the head of the ring narrowly passing by the tip of the nose.

Seeing that Zhang Xiaoyuan was about to fall, Lu Zhaoming supported him with one hand, hooked the table behind him, made a backrest for him, made him barely sit still, and then turned to look at the enemy.

"What kind of medicine is in the tea?" Lu Zhaoming's voice was cold and piercingly cold, "Who are you?"

After he finished speaking, a few big shirtless men appeared out of nowhere in the empty tea shop just now, holding a big knife and stick, surrounded them in the middle, and gradually approached them with vicious eyes.

Zhang Xiaoyuan's mind was already in chaos, his eyelids seemed to be heavy, he finally couldn't bear it and closed his eyes, his consciousness collapsed in an instant, and only the last thing he saw before falling asleep floated in his mind.

Lu Zhaoming stood in front of him with a long sword in his hand.

Unmoved like a rock.

……

Zhang Xiaoyuan woke up.

He was still leaning on that chair, feeling weak all over, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the black shop owner and his wife a few feet away, staring straight at him.

Zhang Xiaoyuan was startled, he leaned back, bumped into the wooden table behind him, and almost fell off the chair, someone beside him supported him, he looked up, that person was Lu Zhaoming.

Zhang Xiaoyuan heaved a sigh of relief, the words "big brother" was still stuck in his throat, but at a glance he saw Lu Zhaoming's clothes stained with blood, he was startled, thinking that Lu Zhaoming was seriously injured, he almost blurted out: "big brother, are you alright?! "

Lu Zhaoming was startled, looked down at the blood on his chest, frowned slightly and shook his head, saying, "It's not my blood."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Lu Zhaoming: "They missed it."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

How could he have forgotten that Lu Zhaoming was very lucky, the bandits who kidnapped the bride could fall and cut themselves in front of him, but now they are just a few robbers who run black shops, and their martial arts are not well-known in the world. Eldest brother, of course nothing will happen.

Only then did Zhang Xiaoyuan look at the black shop owner and his wife in front of him again.

The two of them were tied together with those big shirtless men, their heads were bleeding and their mouths were stuffed with rags. They looked quite embarrassed.

And those shirtless men were covered with white gauze from the steamer, and the cloth was stained with blood, so Zhang Xiaoyuan didn't know, so when he was about to ask, Lu Zhaoming took the initiative to explain, saying: "It's unsightly."

It took Zhang Xiaoyuan a while to understand the meaning of what the big brother said.

These elder brothers were shirtless and had no clothes on. The elder brother thought they were indecent and didn't want to see them.

Zhang Xiaoyuan was speechless for a moment.

When he turned his head, Hualiuque and Jiang Jianyu were sleeping soundly on the table, and Jiang Jianyu even smirked, just looking at him like this, he couldn't tell that he was actually the elder brother of the current emperor.

Zhang Xiaoyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

It took him a while to wake up, the tea was indeed just drugged, and his limbs had regained strength, so he turned around and tried to wake up Hualiuque and Jiang Jianyu, but they didn't respond, Lu Zhaoming pulled away the chair and He sat down behind him and said, "It's useless, we have to wait for them to wake up slowly."

Zhang Xiaoyuan couldn't help asking: "How long have I been asleep?"

He just took a mouthful of tea, but he spit it out later, but now it's completely dark outside, and the house is lit with candles, he seems to have slept for a long time, who knew that he drank all the tea and was going to sleep when.

"It's the third watch." Lu Zhaoming said, "They may not wake up until tomorrow afternoon."

"It's three o'clock?" Zhang Xiaoyuan touched his stomach, "This medicine is really powerful..."

No wonder he felt so hungry.

"Hungry?" Lu Zhaoming sighed, "I don't know what to eat in their store, I can only wait for you to wake up first."

After all, this is a black shop. There are indeed edible fresh food in the back kitchen, but if the ingredients are not well preserved, there will be drugs. In other words, there are more than one rumors about human meat buns in the black shop. , but who knows what kind of meat and stuffing it is, anyway Lu Zhaoming dare not touch it.

They didn't bring a lot of dry food. They thought that this road was not in the wilderness. They took the official road. There were many small shops along the way, and they could always find a place to replenish water and food. Who would have thought that they would come here first? Once—Hua Liuque and Jiang Jianyu will only wake up tomorrow afternoon, they can't wait until tomorrow afternoon before leaving to find the next place to eat, right?

Zhang Xiaoyuan then said: "Eldest senior brother, put the second senior brother and Hualiuque into the carriage first, and drive on the road overnight, there will always be something to eat on the way, right?"

"Even if we leave now, we won't be able to reach the nearest town until tomorrow night." Lu Zhaoming said, "Don't forget, they still have a curfew."

That is the morning after tomorrow before they can enter the town.

Zhang Xiaoyuan felt that he was really going to starve to death.

"There must be restaurants and tea shops along the way!" Zhang Xiaoyuan himself denied his thoughts, "It's so late, they must have all closed."

Zhang Xiaoyuan lay down on the table: "I'm going to starve to death."

Lu Zhaoming stood up: "I remember there are a few live chickens in their yard."

It is impossible for living creatures to bring drugs, so they can safely eat them.

Chicken... chicken wings, chicken legs, chicken feet, chicken breast, roast chicken, marinated chicken, salted chicken!Zhang Xiaoyuan suddenly felt that he saw hope again!

But Lu Zhaoming stood still.

Zhang Xiaoyuan blinked hopefully at Lu Zhaoming, and asked, "Elder brother, what's the matter?"

Lu Zhaoming: "I..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan understood: "Do you need help!"

Lu Zhaoming: "I've never cooked before."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

86.

Zhang Xiaoyuan has never cooked before.

Seriously, he had never touched that spatula in his life.

When he was at home, there was a cook at home, even if his father and mother wanted to cook occasionally, they would not ask him to be a helper. To their father and mother, he would only help more and more.

Not to mention Lu Zhaoming, who has been with his master for more than [-] years, he only focuses on practicing swords, and the master will not let him do other things, and it is not his turn to prepare meals. He seems to have never even touched the stove.

But fortunately, fire, he will still be born.

After all, he once went out alone to do errands for his master. Making a fire is an essential skill for camping and outdoors, so of course he can do it.

But... what about after the fire?

Zhang Xiaoyuan and Lu Zhaoming stood in front of the stove, watching the raging fire under the pot, and fell into deep thought together.

Zhang Xiaoyuan was desperately recalling the steps of his father and mother when they were cooking, how to kill the chicken?It seems to have to be bled first, but... how to bled the chicken?

Zhang Xiaoyuan was stunned.

He tugged at Lu Zhaoming's sleeve and said, "Brother, let's catch the chicken first."

Lu Zhaoming nodded: "En."

For a master of the rivers and lakes like him, it is really easy to catch chickens.

He pinched the chicken's neck, restrained the chicken's wings, pressed the chicken on the cutting board, and calmly asked Zhang Xiaoyuan: "And then?"

Chicken: "clack cluck!!!"

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "Let...the blood!"

Lu Zhaoming repeated: "Bleeding?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan nodded seriously: "Wipe the neck and let the blood out!"

Chicken: "Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!"

Lu Zhaoming: "..."

Killing a chicken with a sword is obviously too exaggerated. Master would not be unhappy if he knew that he used a sword to kill a chicken. The chicken's neck gestured, and it couldn't help frowning again.

"Wipe your neck?" Lu Zhaoming said with a difficult tone, "Are you going to cut it off?"

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "...you don't have to be so vicious, right?"

Lu Zhaoming made several strokes on the chicken's neck with the dagger.

No, he can't do it.

He raised his head and looked at Zhang Xiaoyuan who was standing far away tremblingly. The two looked at each other. Amidst the miserable scream of the chicken, neither of them spoke.

Lu Zhaoming: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "..."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "Brother, let's eat eggs."

Chicken: "cluck cluck cluck cluck."

……

Eggs are easy, anyway, they are in the chicken coop, pick up a few eggs, break them into pieces, throw them into the pot and fry them casually, and they should be ready to eat.

No matter how bad it is, throw the egg into the water and boil it, no one can cook it, Zhang Xiaoyuan is full of confidence in himself, and feels that he will never fail!

Then he died cracking eggs.

No matter what he did, the eggshell always had a mind of its own.

In addition to the eggs, there were countless broken shells in the bowl.

While Zhang Xiaoyuan picked up the eggshell with chopsticks, he thanked himself for washing the eggshell before breaking it into the bowl.

He struggled to pick out most of the broken eggshells, and then managed to break up the eggs in the bowl. Then he walked to the big pot and poured all the beaten eggs into the fiery red pot.

He smelled a strange burning smell.

Zhang Xiaoyuan picked up the spatula in horror and clenched it with both hands, as if he was holding a big knife. He shoveled hard at the rapidly solidified eggs at the bottom of the pot, trying to turn the eggs over.

The other side of the egg was completely charred and white smoke was sizzling, Zhang Xiaoyuan was at a loss, looked up and looked around in panic, grabbed the cold water on the side of the stove and poured it into the pot at once.

White mist rose in the kitchen, Lu Zhaoming sat by the stove and blinked at Zhang Xiaoyuan.

Zhang Xiaoyuan was still in shock.

He looked at the unidentified yellow and black objects that were ups and downs in the pot, forced the corners of his mouth to smile at Lu Zhaoming.

"No...it's okay!" Zhang Xiaoyuan held the spatula tightly with both hands, and stammered, "It's probably just that I forgot to put the oil in!"
