treacherous world

Mr. Zhan's decision to put the water first and then the other side caused Young Master Bai to pour the water into the pot and throw the noodles and vegetables into the pot.

"The water needs to boil!" Zhan Zhao was in a hurry, and quickly picked up the chopsticks to pick up the noodles.

"Why?" Bai Yutang grabbed his arm.

"I can't put it down!"

"You said to release the water first and then drain it." Bai Yutang's face showed that it was half full of water.

"The water has to boil first, and then put the noodles down, do you understand?" Zhan Zhao lifted the noodles out of the cold water, and when they looked like noodles, they all fell apart, and the sticky sticky leftover became sticky. With the noodles, there is also a layer of powder soup in the water.

Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang with admiration.

"Then it's not called boiled noodles, it's called hot noodles." Bai Yutang made sense.

Zhan Zhao made him annoyed, "Hero Bai, you really don't touch Yangchun water." Bai Yutang stared at him for a long time, "What kind of water is Yangchun water?"

Zhan Zhao took a deep breath, "Water in March!"

Bai Yutang stretched out his hand calmly, dipped it into the vat, "I'll show you the dip."

Zhan Zhao was annoyed, "You've grown up so big, you haven't done laundry or cooking?"

Bai Yutang was puzzled, "Why should I take Bai Fu's job?"

"If the limbs are not working, the grains will not be distinguished!"

"Which five grains are they?" Bai Yutang asked Zhan Zhao.

"Uh... this..." Zhan Zhao stroked his chin, covering himself. He could cook, but he had never planted land.

Bai Yutang slightly raised his pretty eyebrows again, as if to say - look, you don't understand either!We are all the same.

Zhan Zhao took a deep breath, and was about to argue with him again, when someone outside said, "If you two don't make a fire, you won't be able to eat until tomorrow morning."

Both Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were taken aback, then turned to look at the kitchen door, and saw the kitchen lady standing there with her hands on her hips, staring at them.

Bai Yutang immediately looked at Zhan Zhao with suspicion in his eyes, as if to say - you really can't either!

"I will!" Zhan Zhao wanted to cry, "I made you mad!"

"Everyone go out and wait." The lady in the kitchen shook her head and came in, pushing the two of them out of the kitchen, "Gentleman is far away as the cook, you two are people who are doing important things, why do you come to the kitchen, you won't call someone when you're hungry?"

"That's right." Bai Yutang nodded seriously, and discussed with the kitchen lady, "Let's eat fried noodles!"

"Okay, what do you two want to eat that the aunt won't make for you?" The aunt happily put on her apron, and quickly started to fry the noodles.

Bai Yutang stood at the door and watched.

Zhan Zhao poked him lightly, "What? Stealing a teacher?"

Bai Yutang smiled, "I can learn anything."

"That's not necessarily true." Zhan Zhao smiled and shook his head, "There's one thing you can't learn no matter what!"

Bai Yutang looked at him puzzled, "What?"

"Have a baby!"

Bai Yutang stared at Zhan Zhao for a long time, "From now on, it's all up to you..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhan Zhao's flying legs also arrived, and Bai Yutang quickly dodged.So, the lady in the kitchen was cooking inside, and the two practiced outside first.

After beating for a while, Zhan Zhao went up to the roof and sat down, waved to Bai Yutang, "No more beatings, I can't beat them anymore, I'm starving to death."

Bai Yutang stopped beating, put his hand away and sat down...

The two sat side by side on the roof of the kitchen, looking at the sky above their heads.

Zhan Zhao felt that the night breeze was cool and comfortable, so he propped his hands on the roof behind him, looking up at the stars in the sky.

Bai Yutang simply lay down and looked at the stars with his arms under his pillow.

"The stars in Kaifeng Mansion are very different from those in Xingkong Island." Bai Yutang said to himself, "Mao'er, have you ever been to Mount Tai?"

"Yeah!" Zhan Zhao also lay down, "Is it possible to pick up your heart, I really want to go again."

"Are you free to go together?" Bai Yutang turned to look at him.

Zhan Zhao also turned his face, "Okay."

Both of them turned their faces, only to realize that they were very close... Staring at each other, they could see the starlight reflected in each other's eyes.

"It's ready!"

The loud voice of the kitchen lady interrupted this period of staring at the right time.

"cough……"

The two sat up abruptly, Bai Yutang touched his forehead lightly, Zhan Zhao touched his head.

"Where is it?" The lady in the kitchen was looking around with two bowls of fried noodles, and Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao came down and took the two bowls of noodles from her.

The aunt wiped her hands and went back, muttering to herself, "Oh, it's good to be young! It's so cold and cool on the roof, and my face is still rosy."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were even more embarrassed, they held fried noodles and looked at each other, and sat at the stone table to eat noodles.

Zhan Zhao ate a few mouthfuls, looked at Bai Yutang at the side, somehow felt that the way he was eating noodles was very funny, so he couldn't help laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" Bai Yutang looked at him.

"Huh?" Zhan Zhao shook his head.

Bai Yutang patted him suddenly, "Cat."

"what?"

"Fry an egg." Bai Yutang smiled and nudged him lightly with his elbow, "It needs to be fried on one side."

"I don't know, the requirements are quite high." Zhan Zhao complained, but he stood up and went in to fry eggs for him. He opened the cabinet to see that there were no eggs, and thought that there were still several old hens, so he ran out.

Bai Yutang saw Zhan Zhao running to the chicken coop beside him, and not long after, he heard chickens flying around inside.

Bai Yutang stood up, only to see Zhan Zhao rushing out of the chicken coop, behind him were a few old hens flapping their wings and screaming.

"...Why are these hens so fierce." Zhan Zhao patted the chicken feathers on his body.

Bai Yutang walked up behind him, "There's still some on the head."

Zhan Zhao reached out to touch it for a long time, Bai Yutang reached out and took off the chicken feather, it was white and pretty.

"Touch two." Zhan Zhao smiled and showed him two eggs.

Bai Yutang followed him into the kitchen and watched him fry eggs...

"Can you do it?"

"I remember cooking for you before!"

"Is there?"

Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang with disdain, "You forget after eating?"

Bai Yutang folded his arms and shrugged, "What you say is unfounded, I'll do it again tomorrow! I'll make a proper appraisal."

Zhan Zhao squinted at him.

The gate of the yard...

Zhao Pu and Gongsun, who came back a long time ago, leaned against the courtyard gate and yawned.

Gongsun asked Zhao Pu, "When do you think they will find out that we are watching here?"

Zhao Pu shook his head, "What's this called? Oh! I only see you, and I can't see anything else."

Later, the fourth son was afraid that Zhao Pu and Gongsun would go in and disturb him, so he grabbed their clothes and dragged them out.

Zhao Pu was hungry and wanted to eat the noodles cooked by Gongsun, but the kitchen was occupied by Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang. Because of their awkward personalities, they finally had a chance to be intimate. Went to sleep on my stomach.

……

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, who were full of fried noodles, were completely sleepless, and they returned to the yard and sat in the middle of the yard.

At this time, the red plums are just withering, and when the night wind blows, the petals of the red plums will fall one by one.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang made tea and sat in the yard to enjoy the flowers.

Zhan Zhao also went to Mr. Bao's study and brought a guqin, and asked Bai Yutang to play the guqin and listen to it.

If it were someone else, Bai Yutang would naturally ignore it, but Zhan Zhao brought it naturally, and Bai Yutang took it naturally, playing a song that Zhan Zhao had never heard before, but it was very suitable for this night.

Bao Zheng and the others all came back, and just as they lay down, they heard the melodious and indifferent sound of the zither, and nodded secretly after tasting it carefully.This piano sound is not worse than Qin Ji's just now. Compared with the seductive atmosphere in Qin Ji's song, this song is more fresh and elegant, just right for falling asleep.

Bao Yan studied Wumang Fengshui before going to bed, and was having a headache because of the jerky description. Hearing the faint sound of the piano, he calmed down.

Bao Fu went to open the window to let the sound of the piano blow in together with the cool wind and falling plum petals.

"Hmm~" Bao Fu nodded, "It's really nice!"

"This piano is played well." Bao Yan also praised, "A good piano can make people completely ignore the piano skills, and just follow their will. The key is that the person who plays the piano is very calm and comfortable, and this indifference is conveyed through the sound of the piano. Such a The piano must be played for the one you love, otherwise there will be no faint joy in it."

Putting away the book, he stretched and lay down, "Go to sleep!"

Bao Fu also climbed into the small bed, and leaned against the window frame with his chin in his hands to listen.

Also doing the same thing, there were Xiao Sizi and Xiao Liang in Gongsun's room.

Pang Yu also went to open the window, "Father, who is playing the piano? Mr. Gongsun?"

"Probably not." Grand Master Pang stroked his beard, savored it carefully, shook his head and laughed twice, "Oh, it's good to be young."

"Huh?" Pang Yu was puzzled.

Pang Ji patted him on the shoulder, "Apart from Bao Heizi, the other young people in this Kaifeng Mansion are quite remarkable. You should be like them, you know?"

Pang Yu rubbed the back of his head, "We are not as upright as others, and it's not that heroes don't have kung fu and full of knowledge. Isn't it too late to learn now?"

"Who told you to learn that!" Pang Ji waved his hand, "Being a human being is all about being wonderful! You don't have to be outstanding to be wonderful." After speaking, he smiled and took a shower and rested.

Under the faint sound of Bai Yutang's piano, the entire Kaifeng Mansion gradually became quiet... Everyone fell asleep with sweet dreams.

……

I don't know if it was the effect of the sound of the piano that night, or because of the warmth of spring and the blooming of flowers, everyone woke up very energetic the next morning.

Zhao Pu took over many affairs of Bao Zheng's Jade Appreciation Conference, and asked Bao Zheng to prepare for the autumn test. After all, the most important thing is to select talents for the country.

Gongsun hasn't had a consultation for a long time, and he went to Jishitang in Kaifeng for a free consultation for a day. The fourth son and Xiao Liang still went to the palace to take care of Pang Fei and Xiangxiang's diet.

Grand Master Pang also continued to deal with his business, but Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were free in the Kaifeng mansion.

Seeing that they were free, Bao Yan came over and said he wanted to go to Shanyin Village, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang naturally nodded and promised Yu to go with him.

Bao Fu was still young and was terribly afraid of ghosts, Bao Yan was afraid that he would get sick from fright, so he left him to take care of Luo Yuan, and prepared to go out with Zhan Zhao Bai Yutang.

When he got to the door, Pang Yu stopped him. An Lehou has been busy growing mushrooms for the past two days, and he is going crazy thinking about duck necks, and he is not allowed to go shopping. Why don't you follow the three of them to Shanyin Village? .

So, the four of them rode on the road.

Leaving the city gate early, according to the blueprints drawn by some old people who are familiar with the terrain in Kaifeng, everyone went to look for the legendary deserted Shanyin Village.

Zhan Zhao rode Zao Duoduo, Bai Yutang rode Bai Yunfan, Pang Yu had a group of chubby yellow pumas, and Bao Yan was the funniest, because Mrs. Xiaobao didn't let him ride a horse, so he had to borrow a little donkey to ride. .

A small donkey was caught between the three tall horses, Bao Yan was extremely depressed, and Pang Yu laughed so hard that the horse trembled.

To go to Shanyin Village, one must turn over a large area of ​​small hills in the outskirts of Fengfeng. On both sides of the official road, there are many small mountain villages.

At noon, everyone approached Xuejiabao, the last village in Shanyang.After this is the high mountain. After crossing the mountain, you will arrive at the mountain shade side.If the legend is not added, the Shanyin side is just that small village!

This Xuejiabao is not so much a village as it is a small sect.

Although it is not as large-scale as the Jianghu sect, almost all of them practice martial arts in this village. The strong women in the village form troupes according to different types. There are three troupes in total in the village. Live by it.Only the old and the weak are left in Pingxue's castle.

Zhan Zhao and the others wanted to inquire about the situation in Shanyin Village first, so they sat down to drink tea in a small teahouse opened by Xuejiabao near the official road.

"Hey, why did you guys come to this barren mountain and wild forest? Are you buying spices?" The guy seemed to be in his early thirties, and he seemed very slippery, and he ran over to pour tea for everyone.

Zhan Zhao smiled, "Yes, I heard that spices are produced in this area, and I want to buy some."

"You have come to the right place!" The man introduced to several people familiarly, "What kind of spices do you want?"

Before coming here, Bao Yan had carefully studied the geography of this area. Indeed, because of the mountains and dense forests, the neighborhood is rich in spices, and Shanyin Village is most famous for its musk!Then he replied to the guy, "I want to buy musk."

"Uh..." The man was stunned for a moment, then his face changed color, and he said with a smile, "Well, musk is not produced here."

"How come?!" Pang Yu looked at him with his mouth curled up, "Oh, my uncle has plenty of money, and he just wants good musk."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other, Pang Yu's tone sounded like a traveling businessman, while Bao Yan was a nerd at first glance, easily arousing suspicion.

"Hehe." The clerk smiled slightly, "Our Xuejiabao produces yellow sandalwood, Liujiacun on the other side produces green leaves, and Shencun over there produces fragrant leaves. Well, the Chenjiacun farther away has a bit of musk. Why don't you go there and have a look?"

Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang, and both of them understood in their hearts - this guy was trying to lure them away from here, away from Shanyin Village.

"But." Bao Yan said, "I heard from a friend that the musk fragrance in Shanyin Village is particularly good."

As soon as Bao Yan said that, the cups in the hands of many nearby guests who were drinking tea couldn't hold them steady. They all picked up the cups in embarrassment, paid the money and left in a hurry.

The man also stammered and shook his head, "No, there is no Shanyin Village near here."

Seeing that he was dishonest, Pang Yu slapped the table, "Really?!"

"No..." The buddy sweated.

"What a boy!" Pang Yu became furious, cursing, "That kid is talking nonsense, he thought that everyone in Kaifeng Mansion didn't lie, let's go back and settle the score with him!"

Zhan Zhao was so excited, he naturally knew his plan, so he nodded, "That's not it!"

"Open...Kaifeng Mansion?" The clerk turned pale and asked Pang Yu, "What does it have to do with...Kaifeng Mansion?"

"Oh, I have a friend who is an errand in Kaifeng." Zhan Zhao said, "We asked him where the musk is the best in Kaifeng, and he said that he can buy it in Shanyin Village. He once heard from his father."

"You can't lie. I spent so much effort to run in, and even killed a horse." As he spoke, Pang Yu pointed to the donkey that Bao Yan was riding, "See, the donkey that was changed halfway! You must report him to Mr. Bao!"

"Uh..." The man hurriedly said when he heard that he was going to file a complaint with Mr. Bao, "This...he may have remembered it wrong."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Yutang suddenly asked him, "Dude, could it be you who lied to me?"

The man was taken aback for a moment, gasped and stood where he was.

Pang Yu also looked at him, "Yes, there must be Shanyin Village. If you deliberately didn't tell us, the loss will be on your head!"

"This..." The clerk was helpless, scratching his ears and cheeks for a long time, finally sighed, and said, "You guys, there is a Shanyin Village, but it's not called Shanyin Village now."

"What's that called?" Bao Yan asked him.

"It's called... Wufen Village." The man said mysteriously, and waved his hands violently, "You can't go! You mustn't go! I don't let you go for your own good! That's not where the living should go. "

"Why?" Zhan Zhao and the others pretended to be puzzled.

The guy swallowed, looked around, lowered his voice and said, "Because, that's a ghost village!"
