I open an inn in the realm of comprehension

The city of Canghe County is surrounded by mountains and rivers, occupying a high place. Because it rarely communicates with the outside world, the city maintains the style of an ancient capital, with white walls and black tiles, and high eaves. Changjing's aesthetics are completely different.

The folk customs here are also open.

Seeing that the gate of the city was wide open, the imperial army used cavalry to clear the way, the infantry was on the side, and the rear was a neat and solemn military appearance, and even the steps seemed to be measured by a ruler. The villagers gathered around the sides of the street curiously, looking up.

Although the cold armor of the soldiers showed a fierce murderous look, and their faces were also very fierce, making the people in the city hold their breath unconsciously and speechless, but they all thought in unison in their hearts:

——This imperial army seems to be different from what they have heard before!

Not only does he not show the slightest greed for life, fear of death, loose and disorderly appearance, but he never loots after entering the city, unlike the armies of other forces in the troubled times, who support war with war. Harvesting local farmland as military rations, forcing young and strong recruits to supplement soldiers, etc...

Xiao Minglou's army brought their own food and grass, and when they passed by the farmland, no one would pull out even a single piece of grass.

This is also thanks to the several battles with the Heavenly Demon Army along the way, the magician Zang Li rationed the army with a lot of food and grass, probably because both the Gu insects and the living people had to be consumed, and the food and grass were brought more than the average team.

After all, a clear-headed living person can still dig weeds and hunt game to fill food, but an unconscious Gu cannot.

Therefore, it is very easy to grab these food and grass, the target is too big, and the Gu people don't know how to form troops, they only know how to attack and don't pay attention to defense, once they break through the defense line, they can put on their horses and run away.

It's not that the Heavenly Demon Army never thought of snatching food and grass back from Xiao Minglou, but once they entered the mountain, Li Mo, a chipmunk monster, was exploring the way in the mountains. Successfully led the team to escape the pursuers.

After coming down a few times, it was the Heavenly Demon Army who were ambushed by Xiao Minglou's troops after getting lost in the mountains. As time passed, Xueyan didn't dare to send too many troops to pursue them.

In order to prevent the meat bun from beating the dog, once gone, there will be no turning back.

Therefore, the villagers in several villages behind the city were a little worried at first, for fear that the imperial army stationed outside the farmland would ruin their farmland, but after a few days, they buried their own dry food and even meat for cooking. The scent will also float across the river bank to the farmhouse, making the villagers salivate.

"What's the smell? It smells so good..." The villager who put down his hoe sniffed violently.

Everyone thought that the team's soldiers had good craftsmanship, but they didn't expect that the spices that made the broth exude such a strong fragrance were prepared by their generals themselves!

"Don't rob, don't rob, what's the hurry!" Xiao Minglou stood in front of the cauldron, frowning at the soldiers who put on a look of hungry wolves, "Anyone who jumps in line and scrambles will be dealt with by military law!"

The soldiers immediately became more honest, but they were all looking forward to it.The villagers could smell the fragrant broth from a long distance, let alone them, bathed in the thick aroma, many people's jaws were full of tears.

"As for..." Xiao Minglou handed the spoon to the gang leader, and pulled Qi Chang, who had been silent by the side, out, "I just sprinkled the extra spices in." The weather is hot, if those spices are not eaten anymore It's about to break.

No matter how much he and Qi Chang could eat, it was only two people's food, so it's better to take it out to add some flavor to the soldiers.

It's just that they didn't expect that as soon as the broth came out of the pot, the soldiers' eyes would glow green as if they hadn't eaten meat in March.

... They also have meat every day on weekdays, and there is no shortage of meat for them. Why are they all showing the expression of a hungry wolf.

Xiao Minglou's opponents have always been generous, these soldiers not only have noodle soup every now and then, but also sugar water from time to time.Compared with other troops who mixed wheat bran into dry rations, made noodle cakes and steamed buns mixed with stones, and the soup tasted the same as pot water, this gang of imperial troops already had a very good meal.

Qi Chang's expression was serious, but his tone was filled with a smile: "It's the sauce made by the lord. You were cooking just now, and you have been in the scent for a long time, so it's hard to detect it. In fact, the umami of the broth is already fragrant. Even The subordinates almost couldn't hold it anymore."

"Ah Chou, when did you learn how Xiao Wang flatters you?" Xiao Minglou looked at him in surprise, it was hard to imagine that the slightly exaggerated compliment just now, which didn't even write a draft, would come from Qi Chang. out of the mouth.

Just say don't hang out with Wang Junnas all the time, let's see what the honest Chou has become!

Xiao Minglou was in a complicated mood.

The corners of Qi Chang's mouth curled up slightly, he held Xiao Minglou's hand, put it to his lips, and kissed lightly: "It's not flattery, it's telling the truth. The young master is naturally talented, he can learn everything quickly, and he studied under the teacher of Changjingcheng." Chef, the sauce prepared is naturally delicious. Just add a little to the ordinary broth, and the taste will be enhanced immediately. The soldiers are all born in poverty, so how can they have the opportunity to go to the famous restaurant in Changjing City? normal."

What's more, this jar of sauce was specially made by Xiao Minglou for him. In Qi Chang's view, this is the most delicious delicacy in the world.

"...It's really becoming more and more good at talking." Xiao Minglou was coaxed into a happy mood, but he still wanted to put on an impatient look to cover up the corners of his mouth that had already turned up.

The two of them put on light robes and changed from their martial attire. Even though they were dressed like ordinary people, their auras were very different.

One person is gentle and noble, like the bright moon, and the other person has a resolute outline, hidden fierceness, and unparalleled sharp eyes. Even if they are good-looking, ordinary people would not dare to approach them.

The main reason is that with Qi Chang around, all those who wanted to get close to Xiao Minglou died down.

The two of them went to the city this time to visit Mr. He, and firstly to express their gratitude to Mr. He. If he hadn't been there that day, the city gates of Canghe County would not have been opened wide for them.The second is to repair the bridge.

Even though what they want to cross is just a branch of the Cang River, in fact, this branch river is very wide, and in addition, it is between the canyons, the water flow is fast, and the Chung Bridge has been built for hundreds of years. Herbalists and hunters know how to use it, and even these veterans feel swayed when crossing the bridge, let alone a large army.

So it is imperative to build bridges.

But repairing a bridge is not simply a matter of felling wood and reinforcing it. It must be inspected by a special person and compared with the drawings, and it cannot be repaired blindly.

All of these must be approved by the city stewards, after all, only they have the blueprints for the bridge construction in Canghe County.

However, Mr. He's attitude towards them has always been good. Whether it's because he really thinks that they are young and promising, or because of He Zhong's face, this trip will not be a problem.

So Xiao Minglou was not in a hurry to go to He's mansion, after entering the city, he first walked around the lively market.

It wasn't just the two of them, Xiao Minglou's eyes were sharp, and he also recognized a few tough soldiers in coarse linen clothes from the bustling crowd.

The army ordered to be stationed outside the field, but there was no restriction on the actions of the soldiers. Apart from drills, the respective generals could arrange for their soldiers to rest properly. I think these men who came out to hang out were the ones who just happened to be resting.

Xiao Minglou raised an index finger towards Qi Chang, put it on his lips, and hissed him lightly, telling him to keep quiet, he didn't want to be surrounded by his subordinates after being alone after so much difficulty.

Qi Chang understood, nodded to him cautiously, and pulled him around the corner, so that no one else could see them.

Hiding behind the large banner signboard of the restaurant, Xiao Minglou carefully poked his head out to look out. Although his behavior was a bit sneaky, he couldn't stand the attention of others, no matter how sneaky he was, he looked pleasing to the eye.

If it wasn't for the fact that there were people around, Qi Chang really wanted to go up and kiss her.

Xiao Minglou didn't know what he was thinking, so he pulled him and motioned for him to come over and look: "Look!"

It's also very interesting to say that even if the soldiers are wearing coarse clothes, they are as conspicuous as Xiao Minglou and the others, and the people in the city can know their identities at a glance.At the beginning, the common people shunned the soldiers, did not dare to provoke them, and did not trust them, but gradually, they found that the imperial army was not as brutal and overbearing as imagined, and the common people also let go of their vigilance.

Not only did he start talking to the soldiers, but he also showed enthusiasm.

Thus, the scene that Xiao Minglou and the others saw appeared in front of them.

Several military men came to the hawker to buy meat buns, threw down a few pieces of silver, picked up a basket of buns and walked away. The hawker counted and found that there were too many. , too much! I haven’t asked you for any money yet!”

"You don't need to give it. Our general said that the common people should be properly compensated. The buns you make are delicious. If we buy them all, others won't be able to eat them."

There was a smile on Jun Han's scarred face, which looked indescribably scary, but the peddler was not afraid at all, and jumped up angrily and patted him on the shoulder - there was no way, Jun Han was too tall to jump up Can't shoot.

"You're offended by saying that!" the peddler said unhappily, "I don't sell the buns I make to anyone. I will never overcharge or undercharge. Are you trying to smash my brand?"

The soldiers looked at each other, and finally accepted the hawker's change. The hawker left satisfied, and said that if he likes his buns, he is welcome to come back next time.

The soldiers all laughed, and the ordinary people on the side looked very happy.

The crowd dispersed, but the city was still lively.

If other forces see it, I'm afraid they can't believe it. The soldiers and the people here can get along so well.

Xiao Minglou's face was full of relief, Qi Chang was about to say that the general taught him well, but he was afraid that Xiao Minglou would feel that he was flattering, so after thinking about it, he simply took advantage of the fact that there were few people and no one noticed, and moved closer to Xiao Minglou , kissed him deeply.

"Well……"

Xiao Minglou slightly opened his eyes wide, his black pupils reflected Qi Chang's resolute and deep face, the tenderness in Qi Chang's eyes seemed to seep into his own eyes, making his vision hazy for a while unconsciously.

After a lingering and deep kiss, Xiao Minglou couldn't stand still. If he hadn't followed suit, and his breath had gradually lengthened, most people probably wouldn't be able to hold on.

Xiao Minglou's complexion was rosy, but he couldn't help complaining in his heart, why Ah Chou's false fire was still so strong, why did Junior Brother Duan's medicine have no effect at all, he couldn't have lied to himself again, could he? !

Duan Youxue, who was far away in the camp, sneezed violently, rubbed his nose and said in surprise, "Could it be that brother is thinking about me?"

The little white fox glanced at him, and brushed his fluffy tail across his ankles: "Have you made the antidote? Maybe they are complaining in their hearts that you are not good at medicine..."

Duan Youxue: "..."

Is it your father?

The author has something to say: Old Fox King: This king is already here, huh.
