I was a hunter in ancient times
Chapter 76 Check
In the misty Niuhong mountain range, Zhou Du and the others followed the flags flying in front of them all the way, and walked into the depths of the mountain without knowing it.
Driving in the mountains with deep forests and passways, I don’t know when it will be the end point, and I can’t find the way back and forth. If it weren’t for the flashing flags in front of them to point them in the direction, it would be quite frustrating.
Zhou Du pursed his thin lips, looking at the road ahead of the bandit, his black eyes were more and more frosty.
Because it's getting dark.
If they couldn't find the gangster's camp before dark, they would have to walk in the dark. Since this mountain range was the bandit's lair, no one would want to light a torch to startle the snake before they found their base.
Zhou Du lowered his increasingly deep eyes, and stood behind Wu Di without saying a word, his hand holding Gong Bing tightened unconsciously.
Wu Di felt Zhou Du's more and more oppressive atmosphere, thought he was nervous, and tried to relieve him and said, "Brother Zhou, relax, it's just a group of bandits, and with your superb archery skills, those bandits can't do anything to you , even if you kill a few gangsters by mistake, it’s okay, you are helping the government to suppress bandits, it’s only right and proper, no one will blame you.”
Zhou Du didn't want to pay attention to this overly enthusiastic army. After he finished speaking, his thin lips parted slightly, and he asked in a cold voice, "How long is it?"
Wu Di noticed that Zhou Du was a bit threatening, and looked at Gao Ren who had been scouting the road ahead, but he was silent for a while, and said ambiguously: "It may take some time."
Zhou Du pursed his lips expressionlessly: "Can we find it before dark?"
Wu Di said uncertainly, "Not necessarily."
Zhou Du was slightly disappointed and said: "I don't like walking around at night, so please hurry up!
Wu Di was stunned, looked at Zhou Du's expression, he didn't look like he was joking, and asked puzzledly, "Why don't you like walking at night?"
He doesn't think Zhou Du is a person who is afraid of the dark.
Zhou Du patted him on the shoulder, and explained for him: "Because it's dark, you should sleep."
Last night he helped Shen Xi watch over Shen Mu, and he stayed up all night, and today he has to travel a long distance in the mountains, so it's no wonder he isn't sleepy.
Wu Di was completely stunned: "..."
He always felt that Zhou Du was joking, but he didn't look like he was joking when he saw Zhou Du's serious face. It was the first time that he, who was always good at observing words and expressions, felt completely powerless.
Fortunately, although Zhou Du became more and more impatient, he followed them all the way without saying a word, never yelled bitterly, and never said a word to return, which made Wu Di feel more relaxed. .
The sky gradually darkened, and the last smear of twilight hung on the horizon. I tried my best to stay for a while, but after all, I still couldn't resist the huge night that I couldn't wait to sneak out.
Just when the night was about to squeeze out the last light left by the day, the red flag that had been flashing ahead finally turned into a blue flag.
Wu Di's eyes lit up, and he said to the people behind him: "Speed up and move forward, we've already touched the vicinity of the old nest, everyone be careful."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Du had already headed straight for the blue flag with a bow and arrow on his back. He was long and leggy, and he was moving forward at full speed, and soon left the crowd behind him far behind.
When Wu Di arranged other people and came to find Zhou Du when he came back to his senses, Zhou Du was almost at the side of Gao Ren who was climbing on a tree and holding a blue flag.
When Gao Ren saw Zhou Du who was the first one running in front of him, he couldn't help being stunned. After he was stunned, he glanced at Wu Di, who was still far behind and hadn't followed, and got down from the tree.
Zhou Du asked him, "Where are the bandits?"
"It should be around here," Gao Ren said, pointing to Zhou Du, who is still a little away from them, "Did you see that night owl, there is a red thread tied to its foot, if I don't If the observation is wrong, this should be used by bandits to stalk."
It was not completely dark yet, with the last ray of light, Zhou Du easily saw the night owl that Gao Ren was referring to, standing on a tree and looking around.
If you look carefully, you will find a red rope on its feet that cannot be thinner. If no one can see it at night, as long as someone passes by this night owl, it will definitely fly back report.
Ask Zhoudu to hunt, he can do it, but ask him to explore the way, or even observe the terrain, he is not very good at it.
When he saw this night owl, he didn't act rashly, but asked Gao Ren: "Aside from this night owl, are there any other guards nearby?"
Gao Ren had touched the surroundings of this night owl just now, and now he heard Zhou Du's question, and immediately replied: "No, it's only this night owl at present."
Zhou Du hummed, looked at the crowd slowly following behind him, and his eyes fell on an official who was holding a bow and arrow like him, walked over, and under his suspicious eyes, took out an arrow from his quiver, Putting it on the string of his own bow and arrow, aiming at the faint mulberry on the treetop in the distance, he said, "I lend you an arrow."
As soon as the words fell, the arrow on the dagger was like a shooting star piercing the night, flying out of everyone's eyes with a murderous aura, piercing Ye Xiao's body with one arrow.
Ye Xiao flapped his wings quickly, and before he could even make a scream, he rolled down from the tree and died.
Zhou Du put away his bow and arrow, turned around and said to the officer who borrowed his arrow, "Okay, go and pick up your arrow."
The group of people who had just followed up did not understand what happened, so they suddenly started hunting. It was not until Gao Ren repeated the matter that everyone suddenly realized.
After dealing with the Anshao Yexiao, Gao Ren continued to move forward. Since the Anshao is here, it proves that they are not far from the bandit den.
Sure enough, after Gao Ren felt all around, he finally found the bandit's lair in a relatively hidden mountain stream.
They are really cunning. The terrain they are looking for is not only hidden, but also extremely easy to be ignored. In addition, the sound of the mountain stream covers the sound, so ordinary people can't find it at all.
Gao Ren was almost fooled at first, if it wasn't for the spies they planted to leave markings along the way, they would have been ignored.
Following the water flow of the mountain stream, Gao Ren and the others quickly found the bandit's lair, a cave placed under the mountain stream. This cave is also extremely hidden, and it is impossible to find it when looking down from the mountain. They can only touch it from the mountain. to see clearly.
There was no road around, Wu Di and the others all walked through the thorn bushes all the way through the night.
Zhou Du, as an assistant and an archer, naturally doesn't need to follow, he can just lie in ambush on the mountain. No one can climb the mountain for a while, which greatly guarantees his safety.
Zhou Du followed the other two archers from the government, and waited quietly on the mountain. After a short wait, the quiet mountain below suddenly burst into flames, and the throat-piercing shouts of beating and killing continued to come from the bottom of the mountain, startling everyone in the forest. The resting birds.
Taking advantage of the firelight at the foot of the mountain, Zhou Du tightly grasped the bow and arrow in his hand, staring sharply and intently at the foot of the mountain where the scuffle was taking place. After he locked on a target, he naturally stretched out his hand to the quiver next to him, and pulled out a quiver naturally. The arrow came, and it shot down the mountain. He was holding a big knife and was about to chop the arm of an official.
The gangster was shot in the arm by the arrow that came from nowhere. He was in pain, his palm was unsteady, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground. At the moment when he dropped the knife, the officer next to him who escaped from the melee was extremely winking. Go forward and subdue him.
Zhou Du was very attentive when shooting arrows. He looked calm and stared sharply at the bottom of the mountain, not letting go of any situation. The advantage of being at a high place is that he can grasp the situation that others cannot grasp at any time.
While he was observing, he did not lose his skill. Arrows flew down the sky like broken bamboos, and each arrow hit a gangster accurately, without fail, which relieved Wu Di and the others a lot. Less burden.
The archer who had been standing beside Zhou Du looked at him like a monster while looking at his dwindling quiver in puzzlement.
Finally, when the arrows were halfway through, he looked at Zhou Du's quiver full of arrows, and couldn't help but ask, "Why do you keep using the arrows in my quiver?"
Zhou Du took another arrow from his quiver, without even raising his eyebrows, he said casually, "Your arrow is better than mine."
The archer thought about it, too, the bows and arrows made by the government were many times better than the bows and arrows made by private individuals. At this critical moment, of course better arrows should be used.
So he no longer cared about Zhou Du, and kept his eyes on the battle situation down the mountain, but whenever he wanted to raise an arrow, Zhou Du was always one step ahead of him.
When he was shooting an arrow, Zhou Du took the time to observe it, and shook his head secretly. His reaction speed was too slow, his arm strength was not developed, and he could only draw the bow with difficulty. The accuracy and hit rate were too poor, and the arrow had only one quiver. He wasted, and every time he took a step ahead of him, he said: "You rest, leave all the arrows to me."
Archer:"……"
Wu Di and the others are worthy of being from the army. With the help of Zhou Du, they quickly reversed the defeat and fought against the bandits. The rest of the model is just fake.
Seeing that the situation was not right, he tried to escape by leaning against the mountain wall under the cover of night.
Zhou Du's deep gaze focused, and he drew the bow and shot arrows faster and faster, nailing the seven or eight bandits who were close to the mountain wall and about to escape to the mountain wall in a row.
Each of them has an iron arrow piercing through the bone and tightly embedded in the mountain wall nailed to their feet. If they want to take it off, they must endure the severe pain of bone erosion. it will be better
Those who ran away saw that the group of people nailed to the wall still had no intention of running, they didn't want to go this far, so they all squatted on the ground and surrendered.
Wu Di, who was in the melee, turned around and saw this scene, and couldn't help blurting out: "Beautiful!"
This trick is really beautiful!
Not only did it prevent the bandits from escaping, but it also crushed the fluke mentality of other bandits. For a while, all the bandits under the mountain stream surrendered.
Zhou Du on the mountain was also relieved to see that the mountain had settled down, because he had no more arrows, and he had used up all the arrows of the archer just now. If there were still people, he could only use his own arrows.
And his laziness brought up by Dou Bao and Shen Xi told him that he didn't want to pick up the arrows, let alone wash the arrows stained with human blood, that would be the best.
In Wu Di's view, this trip to suppress the bandits was more difficult, because Zhou Du's superb archery skills ended more dramatically.After the last count, there was no death on the government's side except for a few Shoudu Songji who were not proficient in martial arts.
It was a happy situation for everyone, but when Wu Di and the others found a lot of swords and swords made by the government from the cave, they couldn't laugh anymore.
In fact, they had vaguely sensed that something was wrong before. How could ordinary bandits be their opponents, how could they possibly injure Lu Liu?
Now that the truth is before our eyes, it makes people shudder.
There is actually a government colluding with bandits to harm the common people.
What a trick to lure disaster to the east, what a trick to borrow a knife to kill people, let the bandits carry the blame, and hide behind and enjoy it comfortably, really, really, so courageous!
Wu Di's army was indignant about this matter, Zhou Du raised his tired eyelids slightly, yawned irrelevantly, and asked, "When can I go back?"
Wu Di still remembered Zhou Du's words that he should go to bed when it was dark, and now seeing the sleepiness on his face, he knew he was tired.No matter how angry the government is doing evil things in his heart, his head is clear, this matter is not something that a small army like him can handle, so he has to let everyone speed up to deal with it, and press this Dujiao hissing away.
On the way back, Wu Di was probably really amazed by Zhou Du's archery skills, and he always went to Zhou Du's side whenever he had nothing to do, looking for a weapon to take the broken curtain and pray.
However, Zhou Du didn't sleep for two whole nights, he really didn't have much energy to deal with him, so he lowered his eyes all the way and went back to the inn without saying a word.
Wu Di looked at Zhou Du's back as he entered the inn gracefully, and sighed slightly: "It's a pity that such a good archery skill."
Standing beside him, Gao Ren said: "Brother, all high-ranking people have their own temper, and we of low status naturally look down on them, why don't we let the general try?"
"General?" This sentence reminded Wu Di.
The general always loves talents, their army is short of such excellent archery generals, the general will be delighted when he finds out, plus the collusion between officials and bandits here, he has to report to the general, so let's explain it to the general together.
Wu Di suddenly became enlightened, and then smiled and said: "Let's go, let's go back and report to the general."
Zhou Du went back to the inn, but he didn't see Shen Xi in the room, feeling tired from not sleeping for two nights, he suddenly became more energetic, and knocked on the door of Shen Mu's room.
In order to wait for Shen Xi and the others to come back, Shen Mu also stayed up all night. When she heard the knock on the door and saw Zhou Du coming back, she knew that he was looking for Shen Xi, so she immediately said: "Xiao Xi went to Zhangfu to cook. Someone sent a message, and I won't return tonight, why don't you go to rest first?"
Zhou Du shook his head: "I'll go to Zhang Mansion to pick him up."
After finishing speaking, Zhou Du went back to his room and asked the inn clerk for hot water, washed away his tiredness, and left the inn with ease to go to the other courtyard of Zhangfu.
Set of four treasures and buckle three silk are not simple dishes. To make them is to use the knife skills to the extreme. There are so many master chefs who may not be able to learn the knife skills of a dish, let alone Shen Xi is a child of eighteen or nineteen years old.
Therefore, after Master Zhang brought Shen Xi to the kitchen, he did not leave. He placed a grand master's chair in the kitchen, and made it clear that he wanted to watch Shen Xi cook with his own eyes.
After Shen Xi entered the kitchen, he didn't care about it and looked up and down the kitchen of Zhang Mansion.
Meng Sui said that Mr. Zhang is a famous gourmet, at first Shen Xi didn't quite believe it, but when he entered the kitchen and saw the pile of kitchen utensils in the kitchen, he agreed in his heart.
His hand swept over the handles of various knives one by one, picked out the knives that were in his hand, tried them with his right hand, and after no discomfort, he held the knives and went to pick up the three-silk and four-treasure knives. The ingredients are started on the chopping board.
Confidently and calmly, he opened a mouthful on the belly of the duck with the tip of the knife, and shaved off all the flesh and bones of the duck.
Experts will know if there is one as soon as they make a move. This kind of ability to rely on craftsmanship for food can't be faked, and fake ones can't be faked. Shen Xi just picks off the whole bone of a duck with a knife, and the few people present are stunned.
Not to mention the duck nested with chicken, chicken nested with pigeons, pigeons nested with quail, and the knife skills that cut a few slices of winter bamboo shoots, ham, and chicken into two thousand pieces as thin as cotton thread.
Neither Meng Sui nor Mr. Zhang thought that Shen Xi still had this skill, and they were dumbfounded for a while, while Li Yu stared blankly at Shen Xi who was much more proficient with his right hand than his left, and began to think about it. suspicious.
Ever since Shen Xi came to Taoyuan Village, he has never seen Shen Xi use his right hand. Whether it is cooking or eating, he has always seen him using his left hand. Everyone thought he was left-handed, and no one suspected anything.
To this day, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't believe it. It turns out that Shen Xi is not a left-handed person at all, he is a normal person beyond normal.
But since he is a normal person, why does he keep using his left hand?
While watching Shenxi cooking, Li Yu was at war between man and nature.
He wanted to ask, but seeing Shen Xi immersed in the art of cooking, he didn't even dare to take a breath, let alone make a sound.
He wasn't the only one who didn't dare to take a breath, even Mr. Zhang, who was quite disdainful of Shen Xi at first, put away his contempt after seeing Shen Xi's knife skills.
Not to mention whether Shenxi can make the three-wire buckle and the four-treasure set, but the knife skills shown here have already reflected his good skills. At this age, he has such a skill, no matter how big he is.
Master Zhang realized that he looked down on people with dog eyes, and hurriedly cleared out all the irrelevant servants in the kitchen, in case they made any noise and disturbed Shen Xi.
They just stayed quietly in the kitchen for several hours, watching Shenxi process the ingredients of the two dishes with the most exquisite knife skills, it was simply amazing.
Shen Xi is also very focused when cooking. He completely immerses himself in the enjoyment of cooking. He keeps recalling the acne noodles he saw when he was young, and combined with the ingredients in the recipes he bought. Describe and engrave them one by one.
There is no mentality that there must be success or failure, just do it with the same mood as normal cooking.
After finishing, he let go of the kitchen knife he was holding tightly, let out a slight breath, and he really didn't fail.
Shen Xi was a little surprised, Song Xia went to the side to pour water for himself to drink, he had been busy for two hours as soon as he lowered his head, and now he was extremely thirsty.
People who are not left-handed are less likely to want to use their left hand once they use their right hand.
Shen Xi picked up the teacup with his right hand, and was about to bring it to his lips to feed water, when the water in the teacup began to shake slightly. At first, it was just a slight inaudible fluctuation, and then the shaking became bigger and bigger, faintly showing signs of overflowing .
Shen Xi knew that this was caused by his shaking hands. After slightly frowning, he quietly changed the teacup to his left hand. After drinking the water in the teacup, he walked towards Li Yu and said, "Little Yuer, ribbon."
Li Yu recovered from the shock, and hurriedly took out the ribbon that Shen Xi gave him to keep from his sleeve.
Shen Xi tied the ribbon back to his right hand, and then his slightly trembling right hand stabilized, but from time to time, it hurt so much that he curled up his fingertips slightly.
He covered the unbearable pain in his right hand with his sleeve, and said to Mr. Zhang, "Can I buy the black bear now?"
Master Zhang also recovered from the shock when he heard Shen Xi's voice, and immediately replied: "Buy, buy, buy!"
After speaking, he immediately handed the 300 taels of silver bills to Shen Xi.
Shen Xi happily took the money, turned back to the stove and cooked the two dishes just now, then picked up a knife in hand and went to the yard outside the kitchen to sort out the big black bear According to the various parts of the body, they are processed into dishes in turn and brought to Mr. Zhang.
The weight of this bear is not light. To make all the meat of it into dishes, Shen Xi worked all night, until dawn, he used up all the bear meat, and made nearly forty dishes in total.
Seeing a long table full of delicious food in front of him, Mr. Zhang, who is an old gourmet, was really uncomfortable. He wanted to eat, and he wanted to eat eagerly, but he also knew that with his piece, all The beauty of the dish will be spoiled.
Looking at this musui man, but he can't say anything, it's so difficult.
Shenxi also collected the money and cooked the dishes, so he didn't care whether Mr. Zhang was there to eat or watch. After a busy night, how could he have any energy at this moment? After saying goodbye to Mr. Zhang, he brought Following Li Yu and Meng Sui, they left Zhangfu.
The two of them still couldn't believe what Shen Xi had shown them.
Shen Xi patted the shoulders of the two of them, bringing them back to their senses: "Wake up, go home."
"Xiaoxi, you..." After Li Yu regained his senses, he was about to ask Shen Xi about jealousy when he heard a voice from behind, and what he wanted to ask stopped abruptly.
"Are you finished?"
It was also a coincidence that as soon as Zhou Du arrived at the Zhang Mansion, he saw them coming out of the Zhang Mansion and stepped over to speak out.
As soon as Shen Xi heard Zhou Du's voice, he turned around, and before Zhou Du came over, he took the initiative to run up to Zhou Du, hung himself on Zhou Du's body, and kissed him affectionately: "Are you back?"
Zhou Du hugged him and rubbed him back: "Yes."
"Are you okay?" Shen Xi got off Zhou Du's body after rubbing, turned up and down, back and forth, left and right, looking at Zhou Du's whole body to ensure his safety.
Zhou Du patted the top of his head lightly: "It's okay."
The scene of the two kissing stimulated Meng Sui and Li Yu. Meng Sui rubbed his eyes that were sore and swollen all night, not wanting to keep his teeth sore, and said to Zhou Du: "Well, everything is done, I will I won’t delay you going home to count the money, so I’ll go back first.”
Zhou Du nodded: "Thank you, I will treat you to dinner after we rest."
Meng Sui responded readily, "Okay."
After watching Meng Sui leave, Zhou Du brought the exhausted Shen Xi and Li Yu back to the inn.
As soon as Li Yu entered the inn, he wisely went to sleep in Shen Mu's room, and waited for him to wake up to talk about anything.
Zhou Du greeted Shen Mu and took Shen Xi back to his room.
As soon as she stepped into the room, Shen Xi threw herself on Zhou Du impatiently, untied his girdle, and took off his clothes.
Zhou Du pressed his forehead helplessly, and comforted him: "Rest first, and then... after rest, okay?"
Shen Xi pushed Zhou Du who was sticking in front of him onto the bed, raised a blushing face, and said angrily: "Your mind is full of jealousy, I just want to check your body."
As he spoke, he peeled off Zhoudu's clothes and said, "I said earlier that every inch of your body is mine and cannot be injured. I want to see if my things are still intact, if not I don't want you anymore."
Zhou Du: "..."
Zhou Du had no choice but to let him take off his clothes. After he checked every inch of his body, he pulled the quilt uncomfortably to cover his body, raised his chin and asked him, "How is it?"
Shen Xi raised his blushing face, pretended to be calm and said: "You are wise!"
The author has something to say: Zhou Du was wronged and wronged: I was not brought by you!

Thanks to the little angel who threw the mine: Ocean 1;

Driving in the mountains with deep forests and passways, I don’t know when it will be the end point, and I can’t find the way back and forth. If it weren’t for the flashing flags in front of them to point them in the direction, it would be quite frustrating.
Zhou Du pursed his thin lips, looking at the road ahead of the bandit, his black eyes were more and more frosty.

Zhou Du was slightly disappointed and said: "I don't like walking around at night, so please hurry up!
Wu Di was stunned, looked at Zhou Du's expression, he didn't look like he was joking, and asked puzzledly, "Why don't you like walking at night?"
He doesn't think Zhou Du is a person who is afraid of the dark.
Zhou Du patted him on the shoulder, and explained for him: "Because it's dark, you should sleep."

The sky gradually darkened, and the last smear of twilight hung on the horizon. I tried my best to stay for a while, but after all, I still couldn't resist the huge night that I couldn't wait to sneak out.
Just when the night was about to squeeze out the last light left by the day, the red flag that had been flashing ahead finally turned into a blue flag.
Wu Di's eyes lit up, and he said to the people behind him: "Speed up and move forward, we've already touched the vicinity of the old nest, everyone be careful."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Du had already headed straight for the blue flag with a bow and arrow on his back. He was long and leggy, and he was moving forward at full speed, and soon left the crowd behind him far behind.
When Wu Di arranged other people and came to find Zhou Du when he came back to his senses, Zhou Du was almost at the side of Gao Ren who was climbing on a tree and holding a blue flag.

Zhou Du asked him, "Where are the bandits?"
"It should be around here," Gao Ren said, pointing to Zhou Du, who is still a little away from them, "Did you see that night owl, there is a red thread tied to its foot, if I don't If the observation is wrong, this should be used by bandits to stalk."
It was not completely dark yet, with the last ray of light, Zhou Du easily saw the night owl that Gao Ren was referring to, standing on a tree and looking around.
If you look carefully, you will find a red rope on its feet that cannot be thinner. If no one can see it at night, as long as someone passes by this night owl, it will definitely fly back report.
Ask Zhoudu to hunt, he can do it, but ask him to explore the way, or even observe the terrain, he is not very good at it.

Zhou Du hummed, looked at the crowd slowly following behind him, and his eyes fell on an official who was holding a bow and arrow like him, walked over, and under his suspicious eyes, took out an arrow from his quiver, Putting it on the string of his own bow and arrow, aiming at the faint mulberry on the treetop in the distance, he said, "I lend you an arrow."
As soon as the words fell, the arrow on the dagger was like a shooting star piercing the night, flying out of everyone's eyes with a murderous aura, piercing Ye Xiao's body with one arrow.
Ye Xiao flapped his wings quickly, and before he could even make a scream, he rolled down from the tree and died.

This cave is also extremely hidden, and it is impossible to find it when looking down from the mountain. They can only touch it from the mountain. to see clearly.
There was no road around, Wu Di and the others all walked through the thorn bushes all the way through the night.

So he no longer cared about Zhou Du, and kept his eyes on the battle situation down the mountain, but whenever he wanted to raise an arrow, Zhou Du was always one step ahead of him.
When he was shooting an arrow, Zhou Du took the time to observe it, and shook his head secretly. His reaction speed was too slow, his arm strength was not developed, and he could only draw the bow with difficulty. The accuracy and hit rate were too poor, and the arrow had only one quiver. He wasted, and every time he took a step ahead of him, he said: "You rest, leave all the arrows to me."
Archer:"……"
Wu Di and the others are worthy of being from the army. With the help of Zhou Du, they quickly reversed the defeat and fought against the bandits. The rest of the model is just fake.
Seeing that the situation was not right, he tried to escape by leaning against the mountain wall under the cover of night.
Zhou Du's deep gaze focused, and he drew the bow and shot arrows faster and faster, nailing the seven or eight bandits who were close to the mountain wall and about to escape to the mountain wall in a row.
Each of them has an iron arrow piercing through the bone and tightly embedded in the mountain wall nailed to their feet. If they want to take it off, they must endure the severe pain of bone erosion. it will be better
Those who ran away saw that the group of people nailed to the wall still had no intention of running, they didn't want to go this far, so they all squatted on the ground and surrendered.
Wu Di, who was in the melee, turned around and saw this scene, and couldn't help blurting out: "Beautiful!"
This trick is really beautiful!
Not only did it prevent the bandits from escaping, but it also crushed the fluke mentality of other bandits. For a while, all the bandits under the mountain stream surrendered.
Zhou Du on the mountain was also relieved to see that the mountain had settled down, because he had no more arrows, and he had used up all the arrows of the archer just now. If there were still people, he could only use his own arrows.
And his laziness brought up by Dou Bao and Shen Xi told him that he didn't want to pick up the arrows, let alone wash the arrows stained with human blood, that would be the best.
In Wu Di's view, this trip to suppress the bandits was more difficult, because Zhou Du's superb archery skills ended more dramatically.After the last count, there was no death on the government's side except for a few Shoudu Songji who were not proficient in martial arts.
It was a happy situation for everyone, but when Wu Di and the others found a lot of swords and swords made by the government from the cave, they couldn't laugh anymore.
In fact, they had vaguely sensed that something was wrong before. How could ordinary bandits be their opponents, how could they possibly injure Lu Liu?
Now that the truth is before our eyes, it makes people shudder.
There is actually a government colluding with bandits to harm the common people.
What a trick to lure disaster to the east, what a trick to borrow a knife to kill people, let the bandits carry the blame, and hide behind and enjoy it comfortably, really, really, so courageous!
Wu Di's army was indignant about this matter, Zhou Du raised his tired eyelids slightly, yawned irrelevantly, and asked, "When can I go back?"
Wu Di still remembered Zhou Du's words that he should go to bed when it was dark, and now seeing the sleepiness on his face, he knew he was tired.No matter how angry the government is doing evil things in his heart, his head is clear, this matter is not something that a small army like him can handle, so he has to let everyone speed up to deal with it, and press this Dujiao hissing away.
On the way back, Wu Di was probably really amazed by Zhou Du's archery skills, and he always went to Zhou Du's side whenever he had nothing to do, looking for a weapon to take the broken curtain and pray.
However, Zhou Du didn't sleep for two whole nights, he really didn't have much energy to deal with him, so he lowered his eyes all the way and went back to the inn without saying a word.
Wu Di looked at Zhou Du's back as he entered the inn gracefully, and sighed slightly: "It's a pity that such a good archery skill."
Standing beside him, Gao Ren said: "Brother, all high-ranking people have their own temper, and we of low status naturally look down on them, why don't we let the general try?"
"General?" This sentence reminded Wu Di.
The general always loves talents, their army is short of such excellent archery generals, the general will be delighted when he finds out, plus the collusion between officials and bandits here, he has to report to the general, so let's explain it to the general together.
Wu Di suddenly became enlightened, and then smiled and said: "Let's go, let's go back and report to the general."
Zhou Du went back to the inn, but he didn't see Shen Xi in the room, feeling tired from not sleeping for two nights, he suddenly became more energetic, and knocked on the door of Shen Mu's room.
In order to wait for Shen Xi and the others to come back, Shen Mu also stayed up all night. When she heard the knock on the door and saw Zhou Du coming back, she knew that he was looking for Shen Xi, so she immediately said: "Xiao Xi went to Zhangfu to cook. Someone sent a message, and I won't return tonight, why don't you go to rest first?"
Zhou Du shook his head: "I'll go to Zhang Mansion to pick him up."
After finishing speaking, Zhou Du went back to his room and asked the inn clerk for hot water, washed away his tiredness, and left the inn with ease to go to the other courtyard of Zhangfu.
Set of four treasures and buckle three silk are not simple dishes. To make them is to use the knife skills to the extreme. There are so many master chefs who may not be able to learn the knife skills of a dish, let alone Shen Xi is a child of eighteen or nineteen years old.
Therefore, after Master Zhang brought Shen Xi to the kitchen, he did not leave. He placed a grand master's chair in the kitchen, and made it clear that he wanted to watch Shen Xi cook with his own eyes.
After Shen Xi entered the kitchen, he didn't care about it and looked up and down the kitchen of Zhang Mansion.
Meng Sui said that Mr. Zhang is a famous gourmet, at first Shen Xi didn't quite believe it, but when he entered the kitchen and saw the pile of kitchen utensils in the kitchen, he agreed in his heart.
His hand swept over the handles of various knives one by one, picked out the knives that were in his hand, tried them with his right hand, and after no discomfort, he held the knives and went to pick up the three-silk and four-treasure knives. The ingredients are started on the chopping board.
Confidently and calmly, he opened a mouthful on the belly of the duck with the tip of the knife, and shaved off all the flesh and bones of the duck.
Experts will know if there is one as soon as they make a move. This kind of ability to rely on craftsmanship for food can't be faked, and fake ones can't be faked. Shen Xi just picks off the whole bone of a duck with a knife, and the few people present are stunned.
Not to mention the duck nested with chicken, chicken nested with pigeons, pigeons nested with quail, and the knife skills that cut a few slices of winter bamboo shoots, ham, and chicken into two thousand pieces as thin as cotton thread.
Neither Meng Sui nor Mr. Zhang thought that Shen Xi still had this skill, and they were dumbfounded for a while, while Li Yu stared blankly at Shen Xi who was much more proficient with his right hand than his left, and began to think about it. suspicious.
Ever since Shen Xi came to Taoyuan Village, he has never seen Shen Xi use his right hand. Whether it is cooking or eating, he has always seen him using his left hand. Everyone thought he was left-handed, and no one suspected anything.
To this day, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't believe it. It turns out that Shen Xi is not a left-handed person at all, he is a normal person beyond normal.
But since he is a normal person, why does he keep using his left hand?
While watching Shenxi cooking, Li Yu was at war between man and nature.
He wanted to ask, but seeing Shen Xi immersed in the art of cooking, he didn't even dare to take a breath, let alone make a sound.
He wasn't the only one who didn't dare to take a breath, even Mr. Zhang, who was quite disdainful of Shen Xi at first, put away his contempt after seeing Shen Xi's knife skills.
Not to mention whether Shenxi can make the three-wire buckle and the four-treasure set, but the knife skills shown here have already reflected his good skills. At this age, he has such a skill, no matter how big he is.
Master Zhang realized that he looked down on people with dog eyes, and hurriedly cleared out all the irrelevant servants in the kitchen, in case they made any noise and disturbed Shen Xi.
They just stayed quietly in the kitchen for several hours, watching Shenxi process the ingredients of the two dishes with the most exquisite knife skills, it was simply amazing.
Shen Xi is also very focused when cooking. He completely immerses himself in the enjoyment of cooking. He keeps recalling the acne noodles he saw when he was young, and combined with the ingredients in the recipes he bought. Describe and engrave them one by one.
There is no mentality that there must be success or failure, just do it with the same mood as normal cooking.
After finishing, he let go of the kitchen knife he was holding tightly, let out a slight breath, and he really didn't fail.
Shen Xi was a little surprised, Song Xia went to the side to pour water for himself to drink, he had been busy for two hours as soon as he lowered his head, and now he was extremely thirsty.
People who are not left-handed are less likely to want to use their left hand once they use their right hand.
Shen Xi picked up the teacup with his right hand, and was about to bring it to his lips to feed water, when the water in the teacup began to shake slightly. At first, it was just a slight inaudible fluctuation, and then the shaking became bigger and bigger, faintly showing signs of overflowing .
Shen Xi knew that this was caused by his shaking hands. After slightly frowning, he quietly changed the teacup to his left hand. After drinking the water in the teacup, he walked towards Li Yu and said, "Little Yuer, ribbon."
Li Yu recovered from the shock, and hurriedly took out the ribbon that Shen Xi gave him to keep from his sleeve.
Shen Xi tied the ribbon back to his right hand, and then his slightly trembling right hand stabilized, but from time to time, it hurt so much that he curled up his fingertips slightly.
He covered the unbearable pain in his right hand with his sleeve, and said to Mr. Zhang, "Can I buy the black bear now?"
Master Zhang also recovered from the shock when he heard Shen Xi's voice, and immediately replied: "Buy, buy, buy!"
After speaking, he immediately handed the 300 taels of silver bills to Shen Xi.
Shen Xi happily took the money, turned back to the stove and cooked the two dishes just now, then picked up a knife in hand and went to the yard outside the kitchen to sort out the big black bear According to the various parts of the body, they are processed into dishes in turn and brought to Mr. Zhang.
The weight of this bear is not light. To make all the meat of it into dishes, Shen Xi worked all night, until dawn, he used up all the bear meat, and made nearly forty dishes in total.
Seeing a long table full of delicious food in front of him, Mr. Zhang, who is an old gourmet, was really uncomfortable. He wanted to eat, and he wanted to eat eagerly, but he also knew that with his piece, all The beauty of the dish will be spoiled.
Looking at this musui man, but he can't say anything, it's so difficult.
Shenxi also collected the money and cooked the dishes, so he didn't care whether Mr. Zhang was there to eat or watch. After a busy night, how could he have any energy at this moment? After saying goodbye to Mr. Zhang, he brought Following Li Yu and Meng Sui, they left Zhangfu.
The two of them still couldn't believe what Shen Xi had shown them.
Shen Xi patted the shoulders of the two of them, bringing them back to their senses: "Wake up, go home."
"Xiaoxi, you..." After Li Yu regained his senses, he was about to ask Shen Xi about jealousy when he heard a voice from behind, and what he wanted to ask stopped abruptly.
"Are you finished?"
It was also a coincidence that as soon as Zhou Du arrived at the Zhang Mansion, he saw them coming out of the Zhang Mansion and stepped over to speak out.
As soon as Shen Xi heard Zhou Du's voice, he turned around, and before Zhou Du came over, he took the initiative to run up to Zhou Du, hung himself on Zhou Du's body, and kissed him affectionately: "Are you back?"
Zhou Du hugged him and rubbed him back: "Yes."
"Are you okay?" Shen Xi got off Zhou Du's body after rubbing, turned up and down, back and forth, left and right, looking at Zhou Du's whole body to ensure his safety.
Zhou Du patted the top of his head lightly: "It's okay."
The scene of the two kissing stimulated Meng Sui and Li Yu. Meng Sui rubbed his eyes that were sore and swollen all night, not wanting to keep his teeth sore, and said to Zhou Du: "Well, everything is done, I will I won’t delay you going home to count the money, so I’ll go back first.”
Zhou Du nodded: "Thank you, I will treat you to dinner after we rest."
Meng Sui responded readily, "Okay."
After watching Meng Sui leave, Zhou Du brought the exhausted Shen Xi and Li Yu back to the inn.
As soon as Li Yu entered the inn, he wisely went to sleep in Shen Mu's room, and waited for him to wake up to talk about anything.
Zhou Du greeted Shen Mu and took Shen Xi back to his room.
As soon as she stepped into the room, Shen Xi threw herself on Zhou Du impatiently, untied his girdle, and took off his clothes.
Zhou Du pressed his forehead helplessly, and comforted him: "Rest first, and then... after rest, okay?"
Shen Xi pushed Zhou Du who was sticking in front of him onto the bed, raised a blushing face, and said angrily: "Your mind is full of jealousy, I just want to check your body."
As he spoke, he peeled off Zhoudu's clothes and said, "I said earlier that every inch of your body is mine and cannot be injured. I want to see if my things are still intact, if not I don't want you anymore."
Zhou Du: "..."
Zhou Du had no choice but to let him take off his clothes. After he checked every inch of his body, he pulled the quilt uncomfortably to cover his body, raised his chin and asked him, "How is it?"
Shen Xi raised his blushing face, pretended to be calm and said: "You are wise!"
The author has something to say: Zhou Du was wronged and wronged: I was not brought by you!
