Proton's Journey

"Passing sheep and lonely geese, prepare to buy road money in advance, so that you can pass the post safely!" Zhang Long and Zhao Hu shouted loudly as they stood on the Wuba post and rushed to the post.

"Zhang Long, I think the lone goose in front is too thin. I'm afraid there won't be much fat to scrape off. The three sheep in the back seem to be very fat!" Zhao Hu discussed with Zhang Long. They have already trained a pair of sharp eyes, and they can tell the weight of a passing sheep and lone goose just by looking at them.

"There is no oil to squeeze, so let him go wild and pluck the feathers for us to have some fun!" Zhang Long said viciously.

The three of Li Kan, who were walking far away from the post, stopped when they heard the sound.

Wei Dun clenched his fists and said in a low voice: "They look at us like sheep with that eye?! Let's beat them down before I let them!"

"Low-key! Calm down!" Li Kan pressed Wei Dun's fist with one hand.

"It's not a big deal if this mountain has a merchant, but if it passes a hero who can capture the trail cutter, once the news comes out, I'm afraid there will be no peace for us in the future." Dongfang Meng said.

Wei Dun let go of his fist angrily, suppressing a feeling of injustice in his body, and prepared to be a sheep waiting to be slaughtered with his hands tied.

"The lonely goose at the head, leave ten taels to buy road money, if you can't get it, you will have ten lashes from grandpa to pay for it!" Zhang Long laughed ferociously and jumped up and down the five tyrants.

Li Kan looked ahead, and saw that the "lonely goose" who was begging for mercy was a skinny boy in his early twenties with a sallow face.

Zhang Long whipped the "lone goose" and immediately ripped off the pack on the goose's back. Seeing that there were only a few rags and rags in the pack of the goose, Zhang Long felt that he was being teased. Anger rose from his heart, and he used [-] points of strength to hit the second whip.

The whipped Guyan let out a scream, a deep bloodstain appeared on the torn clothes, and where the whip passed a little, there was a rouge mark on his disheveled face.

"Boy, come here. Grandpa won't beat you to death. Grandpa will save you a little life so that you can remember. If you don't have money, don't pass through my Wubagang!" Zhang Long picked up his whip and prepared to beat him again.

Wei Dun was already furious at the side, he quickly stepped forward, grabbed Zhang Long's arm and wanted to break it behind him.

At this time, Li Kan suddenly heard two low coughing sounds, and Wei Dun immediately realized his gaffe, and hurriedly smiled and said to Zhang Long: "Your Majesty, look at the cowardice born in the past, it must not be able to withstand you. This whip, why not spare him!"

While Wei Dun was talking, he took out an ingot of silver from his sleeve and stuffed it into Zhang Long's hand. Zhang Long took the silver, his face immediately became joyful, and he grabbed Wei Dun's hand and said, "Just now your hand caught Works well!"

Wei Dun was startled, cold sweat broke out on his forehead immediately, he thought his identity had been seen through, so he could only smirk and say: "This is my usual way of capturing horses, the king laughed at me!"

Zhang Long received the money, he was overjoyed, and without fussing about it, he let a few people pass Wubagang.

The rescued lone goose was named Yangkan, so he walked with them.

Dongfang Meng asked Li Kan: "Why did you stop me from saving the yokan just now?"

"When I saw Yokan lower his head just now, I saw that he had a rebellious bone in the back of his head. The photo books said that people with this appearance were ungrateful..." Li Kan said so far, looked at Dongfang Meng and Yokan and shook his head helplessly.

It was dusk when Li Kan and his party entered the Jing'an Gate of the South Korean border town, so they wanted to find a nearby inn to stay.

The innkeeper leaned over and rummaged under the counter for a while, only to find two wooden room cards, on which were written the numbers of the remaining rooms.

"There are still two rooms left in the small shop today, how many gentlemen should squeeze together?" The innkeeper leaned forward and said.

"Boss, we just passed a few inns, and all of them have hung up closed lanterns. Does your border town really have so many guests every day?" Dongfang asked puzzled.

"Masters must have just come to the land. There is a rule in our city. When the Changgeng star in the sky shines, all shops are not allowed to do business. If any one violates this order, the whole family will be arrested. He was executed as a traitor of Wei State." The boss stroked his beard and smiled.

"Then why does your store dare to do business at this time?" Dongfang Meng asked even more puzzled.

"When the old men enter the door, they can see the business lanterns hanging in the shop, with the seal of Mr. Gai Chengfang on it, so no one dares to trouble the villain." The innkeeper explained.

"Oh, Mr. Chengfang is your relative, why did he open the back door for you?" Dongfang Meng asked with a smile.

"Hehe, the butler of the Lord Chengfang's house is the villain's cousin, and the villain entrusted him to send a large sum of money to the Lord Chengfang's house every month. It is hard work every month, and the money earned is nine out of ten They have all entered the residence of Lord Chengfang!" the shop owner said with a wry smile.

"It seems that we can only live here. Please help us organize some food, and bring a hot pot of wine, and I will give you the money!" Li Kan picked up the house card and was about to go upstairs.

"I'm sorry, sir. The cook of the small shop went home to visit relatives at noon. Although the shop has meat and vegetables, all kinds of condiments and all kinds of pots and stoves, there is no one in the shop who can cook. If the uncle can cook by himself, the small shop only charges for materials, and the stove is free." The shop owner spread his hands and smiled.

After Li Kan, Dongfang Meng, and Wei Dun looked at each other for a while, they realized that none of them knew how to cook.

"Why don't we just add a few big ingredients and salt, boil the soup and cook sliced ​​meat?" Wei Dun said helplessly.

Li Kan didn't make a statement, but Dongfang Meng frowned. He was usually the most particular about food, and he usually had two servants around him who made soup for him, so he was used to his tongue being very tricky and weird.

At this time, Dongfang Meng had been starving for a long time, but when he heard that there was only boiled pork slices cooked by Wei Dun, he couldn't help feeling annoyed and depressed.

"The villain happens to know how to cook a few dishes, so let the villain wash his hands and cook a few small dishes to repay the benefactors for saving their lives." Yang Jian looked at Dongfang Meng's face, stood up and said timidly .

Everyone glanced at the yokan, but didn't make a statement, so the yokan went into the kitchen and got busy, and brought out a few delicate dishes in a while.

"Master is good at cooking, these small dishes look good!" The shop owner glanced at the table and couldn't help admiring.

Yokan smiled slightly, took the wine vessel from the owner of the store, and warmed the wine with his own hands to serve everyone to eat.

"This dish is even more delicious than Qi's state banquet!" Dongfang Meng savored a few small dishes carefully, and was very satisfied with the cooking skills of yokan.

Wei Dun ate heartily at the side, and he didn't even bother to say compliments, but Li Kan was wondering where a poor man like yangkan learned such excellent cooking methods.

"When the villain was born, my mother dreamed that at the banquet of the Jade Emperor, the Jade Emperor rewarded her with a bowl of soup. She gave birth to the villain while she was tasting the delicacy, so the villain was named Yangkan." Yokan said with a smile while passing the wine.
