The wind of wonder in Tianyue rises from the frontier fortress

It is said that Zhao Ning cautiously approached Chu Qingxi who was cleaning the cobra, and boldly asked, "Can this poisonous snake really be eaten?"

Seeing that the water had boiled, Chu Qingxi scooped up the snake meat neatly with his hands and feet, and at the same time used some longer dead branches to skewer the snake meat, and put it directly on the fire to roast it. Zhijiao moved his index finger.

Zhao Ning looked at the "squeaking" snake section in front of him, and swallowed a few times involuntarily.The tangy smell of meat drilled into her nostrils, arousing her appetite by itself.Zhao Ning also felt very strange, that day in the palace, she had never tasted any delicacies from mountains and seas, especially the small kitchen of the Fourth Princess Mansion, which was composed of a few outstanding chefs carefully selected by Emperor Mu Zong, no matter whether it was the eight major Cuisine, or north-south snacks, are second to none.

However, even Zhao Ning, who had already been spoiled, was firmly attracted by the grilled snake skewers in Chu Qingxi's hands.I saw that the snake segment was golden in color, with oil bursting on the surface, exuding a mouth-watering aroma.

Seeing Zhao Ning staring intently at the grilled snake skewers in his hand, Chu Qingxi couldn't help but smiled and said, "Do you want to try it?"

As she spoke, she handed over a bunch of cooked snake pieces, Zhao Ning hesitated for a while before reaching out to take it.Looking at the fragrant grilled snake, she swallowed her saliva, and thought of the terrifying appearance of the cobra in life, and couldn't help hesitating.

Seeing her like this, Chu Qingxi knew that she still had some psychological barriers, so she couldn't help but encourage her: "Take a bite, if it doesn't taste good, you can spit it out anyway."

Hearing her speak to him so tenderly, Zhao Ning suddenly felt a little courage in his heart, and thinking that this was food baked by Chu Qingxi himself, he became even more energetic.She cautiously stuck out her tongue and licked the roasted snake, only to find it fragrant and not at all uncomfortable, so she dared to take another bite.

With this sip, Zhao Ning couldn't help but narrow his eyes with a mouthful of gravy and aroma.She can almost say with certainty that she has never eaten such a delicious thing!

This roasted snake has a sweet fragrance, and each bite seems to have a different taste. It is so delicious that Zhao Ning can't help but want to dance.

Seeing her eating so happily, Chu Qingxi couldn't help feeling better. She smiled and handed Zhao Ning another bunch of roasted snake slices. This time, Zhao Ning took it without the slightest hesitation. He smiled and said, "Sister Chu, this is really delicious!"

Chu Qingxi raised her eyebrows, but she didn't know if it was true or not, as if she had already guessed that Zhao Ning would respond in this way.You must know that when Chu Ge and Tang Qing went to look for the white rhinoceros together in the Naba Mountains and Shushui, Tang Qing was amazed by his cooking skills, but he did not know that Chu Ge's cooking skills were precisely learned from Chu Qingxi since childhood.

Zhao Ning was having a great time eating, and said to Chu Qingxi with a smile, "Sister Chu, you should eat too, or I'll eat it all up."

Seeing that she was so lively, Chu Qingxi couldn't help but be moved by her, scooped up another bowl of snake soup and handed it over, smiled and said, "Try this." Immediately afterwards, she added: "Be careful. "

Zhao Ning gently blew on the snake soup in the bowl, took another sip, and couldn't help screaming: "My God, it's so delicious!" This seemingly inconspicuous snake soup is simply It was so delicious that she almost bit off her tongue.

Zhao Ning was so excited that he was about to cry, what about going out of the fortress to get married, what about the princess being in trouble, at this moment, these sufferings all turned into a passing cloud in front of the bowl of snake soup in front of him.

If it hadn't been for being married to Yelu Huala by Shenzong, Zhao Ning would not have come to this vast Gobi Desert. If Zhao Ning hadn't come here, he wouldn't have been able to meet Chuqingxi. How could it be possible to eat such delicious roasted snake soup and grilled snake section!

It turns out that all of this is due to God's will. The reason for God to let me go out to get married is to let me meet Chu Qingxi!She is good-looking and has high martial arts skills. The key point is that she can cook such a good dish!Thinking of this, Zhao Ning couldn't help but want to look up to the sky and smile, how could such a beautiful woman be missed?

Chu Qingxi didn't know what Zhao Ning was thinking. Seeing that she admired the food she made so much, if she said she didn't like it, it would be a lie.

The two were eating happily, but they didn't feel very lonely. The two of them who were with each other in such a deserted place naturally seemed to be much closer than usual.

I only heard Zhao Ning ask: "Sister Chu, you said you were going to look for that Huoyun Hongtan, do you have a clue?"

Chu Qingxi said: "Well, I have been here for three years just to wait for the red epiphyllum to bloom."

The Huoyunhongtan is rumored to grow on the desert Gobi Desert where the temperature difference between day and night is huge, and it often blooms in the coldest night.Its flowering period is very short, several times shorter than that of ordinary epiphyllum, so almost no one has seen it grow and bloom. If it was not because of the danger of Sangong, Chu Qingxi would not have come here Wait for the place to suffer.

Fortunately, she was lucky. When she was about to give up, she found a trace of Huoyunhongtan on the top of this high mountain in the Gobi.So she found a cave here and lived there, but who knew that she lived here for three years.

Zhao Ning excitedly said: "When will the Huoyun Hongtan open, sister Chu, I will accompany you to pick it."

A trace of melancholy flashed across Chu Qingxi's brows, and he said in a deep voice: "This fire cloud red pan blooms once every few years, and there is no definite number. I have been here for three years, but I have not been able to do so. It's just that the red pan bloomed recently. There are already small flower buds on the ground, and it should be within a few days."

Zhao Ning said: "Then let's guard it if we have nothing to do, and pick it back when it blooms."

Chu Qingxi frowned and said: "Have you forgotten how scary the night on the Gobi is? Looking at the weather, I'm afraid the temperature will have to cool down. In addition, if there is a snowstorm or a pack of wolves, there will be unexpected accidents."

Zhao Ning said: "I'm not afraid, since it's so dangerous to pick Huoyun Hongtan, I'm even more worried about letting you go alone! Sister Chu, I will accompany you, and I will take care of you with one more person."

Looking at her swearing little face, Chu Qingxi was suddenly moved inexplicably.It has been a long time since anyone has spoken to her like this. Back then, she was aloof, and even those who wanted to get close to her were a little more trembling. How could there be someone as innocent as Zhao Ning.

I have been really lonely for too long.Chu Qingxi thought to himself.

At that moment, she no longer deliberately refused. Anyway, on such a lonely and chilling night, it was not a bad thing to have someone to accompany her.As for Zhao Ning's safety, Chu Qingxi thought to himself that even if he only had two or three levels of skill left, it might not be difficult to protect her well.

"In that case, let's set off tonight." Chu Qingxi made up his mind.

Zhao Ning clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Well, maybe we're lucky, and we will be able to meet the red cloud in full bloom tonight."

After the two discussed it, Zhao Ning took the initiative to pack up the dishes.Chu Qingxi remained silent, watching her movements silently.Although her hands and feet were not very sharp, the four princesses at least showed her sincerity, and there were no parasites who opened their mouths and stretched out their hands for food.

After Zhao Ning cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks, she found that Chu Qingxi had already cleaned up the used charcoal fire and firewood.Immediately afterwards, Chu Qingxi suddenly stretched out his hand in front of her, and what was held in his hand was the same dagger that was used to chop wood and cut flesh just now.

"You keep this dagger for self-defense." Chu Qingxi said lightly.

Such a peerless divine weapon was sent out by her so lightly and deftly, like an ordinary broken copper and rotten iron.

Zhao Ning reached out to take it without even thinking about it. She looked at the dagger in her hand eagerly, thinking that it must be Chu Qingxi's personal belongings, and couldn't help but feel more and more happy in her heart.She reached out and pulled the dagger out of its sheath, looked at the blade like a pool of autumn water in front of her, made a few movements like a bluff, and said with a smile: "Sister Chu, do you think my kung fu is good?"

Chu Qingxi saw that some of her moves had some appearances, nodded and said: "That's right, it seems that Zhang Ziyang is also a little dedicated."

Hearing her praise, Zhao Ning couldn't help being a little proud, and said with a smile: "That's natural. He's the imperial guard, and it's too late to flatter me, so how dare he hide his secrets!"

Seeing that she was making the dagger look like a blowing wind, Chu Qingxi couldn't help being a little aroused, and seeing that it was still early, he said: "Come, let me accompany you to fight."

Zhao Ning was overjoyed when she heard the words. She was a martial artist since she was a child. Although there were guards fighting against her in the palace, she always cared about her status as a princess and did not dare to overstep too much.However, when she was wandering around in the white dragon fish suit, the hidden guards sent by Mu Zong accompanied her all the time, even before she could make a move, those who conflicted with her had already been sent away.

It's a pity that Emperor Mu Zong passed away suddenly, and he didn't have time to tell himself the list of hidden guards.Now that Shenzong is in power, he is under the influence of others, and he doesn't know how to contact the hidden guards. After a long time, these hidden guards have gradually disappeared. I think it must be because no one promises high officials and rich salary, which makes people feel alienated.

It's good if there are no hidden guards. Although they lose their protection, they still have a little more freedom.Zhao Ning never cared about this.Now that Chu Qingxi offered to play with her, she happened to scratch her itch, and immediately responded: "Okay! Sister Chu, I just want you to see my skills."

Seeing that she was in high spirits and joy, Chu Qingxi immediately stood away from her, raised her hand to make a door in front of her chest, and said: "You make a move."

Zhao Ning was about to put the dagger into the scabbard, when Chu Qingxi said, "It's okay, you just use the dagger to make moves." Zhao Ning hesitated and said, "What if I hurt you with the dagger?"

Seeing what she said, Chu Qingxi couldn't help but burst out laughing, and said: "If you can hurt me, I will do something for you."

Zhao Ning's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Can I do anything?"

Chu Qingxi nodded and said: "Anything, as long as you can bring it up, I will agree."

Hearing this, Zhao Ning became even more excited, swiped the dagger, and shouted: "Accept the move carefully!" After speaking, he stabbed Chu Qingxi in the chest with the move "Jade Girl Shuttle".

Chu Qingxi saw that her sword was in a hurry, but she was indeed an authentic Wudang swordsman. She nodded slightly at that moment, turned her body slightly to one side, and then dodged the sword move, and said with a smile: "I want to see, what are you doing? How much have you learned?"
