I'm a bully in troubled times

The next day, when Qi Ranming woke up, there was no one around him.The bonfire in the cave had been extinguished because it was left unattended, and only the glowing red charcoal fire was still lying in the ashes, emitting heat outward.

The morning sun shines in from the cave entrance, passes through the gaps in the bushes, casts mottled shadows on the uneven ground in the cave, and sways with the morning wind in the mountains.The sound of wind blowing leaves and vegetation came from outside the cave.

Today is a fine weather, Qi Ranming sat up and felt his physical condition, it was much better than last night.He thought to himself, maybe Jiang Yu used his internal energy to recuperate his body last night.

How deep is this person's inner strength?After such a day, when he recovers from his injuries, the two of them will have to face Nangong Chuo's army again sooner or later. At that time, what will he use to meet the enemy?

Due to the injury, Qi Ranming stayed in the cave for a long time without any activities, and his muscles became a little stiff.He tried to get up and stretch his muscles.In fact, the trauma he suffered before was not too serious, but a sword stabbed his internal organs, which was more serious, but with Jiang Yu's help, he has mostly recovered.

As soon as Qi Ranming was moving, he accidentally moved a dead tree branch next to him. He looked down, but from the corner of his eye, he found that there seemed to be words on the ground, which were drawn with a branch. Jiang Yu's handwriting: "Remember to drink medicine." , I went hunting, and I’ll cook something delicious for you when I come back.”

When Qi Ranming didn't realize it himself, a little smile appeared on his usually indifferent face, he shook his head, thinking: a son of a family, a doctor of the Yan Kingdom, if he is a general with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in his palm , Talking, but always like... a commoner, really strange.

Even though he thought so, Qi Ranming still followed what Jiang Yu said, poured out a bowl of medicinal soup from the medicine jar, raised his head and drank it, and when he put the bowl away, he found a paper bag beside the medicine jar.Qi Ranming opened it and found that it was actually pine nut candy.

Really thoughtful and considerate, Qi Ranming thought, I heard that Sui Yang Jun and his deceased childhood sweetheart had a very good relationship, I don't know how considerate Jiang Yu is to her.Even after the lady had passed away for three or four years, he had no intention of remarrying, and declined all the marriages proposed by the king of Yan and his uncle Xun Zhizheng.

After eating a piece of pine nut candy, Qi Ranming rewrapped the paper bag, put it in his arms, and walked out facing the rising sun. When the sun hit his face, he shook his eyes. Qi Ranming raised his hand to cover it, narrowed his eyes, and looked outside. I took a few glances.

Since he was brought here by the old man, he hasn't been out, and the old man brought him everything.Looking outside at this moment, I found that this place is really hidden, the entrance of the cave is downward, with a slope, and it is extremely small, only one person can barely pass through.

Outside the entrance of the cave, it is covered by lush vegetation. If you don't look here deliberately, you won't find a cave here.

Qi Ranming turned around near the entrance of the cave, not daring to go far, when he was about to go back, he heard the old man's voice with a smile: "Mingran?"

"Old man." Qi Ranming turned his head and saw that the old man was carrying a cleaned pheasant in his left hand and a large piece of unidentifiable meat in his right hand. He said with a smile, "Did he beat this?"

"Yes, fat?" The old man held up the pheasant in his left hand and showed it to Qi Ranming, "He went to hunt it early in the morning, and he killed two pheasants. Let's eat one today, and let the old woman marinate the other."

"Then what is this?" Qi Ranming asked, pointing to the flesh on the old man's right hand.

"Wild boar! Come on, go in first, I'm afraid someone will see it outside," the old man said as he walked in, "It's a big wild boar! I don't know how it was caught, we can't finish it in a while, the boy said I want to make something delicious, so I cut off a piece first, and marinated the others, saying that we will keep it for the winter."

In the winter here, it is easy to die, frozen to death, starved to death, countless.

"Ouch!" The old man suddenly stepped on a stone and sprained his foot. He was holding things in both hands and couldn't maintain his balance for a while. Qi Ranming quickly helped him.

"Let me carry it." Qi Ranming took the things from the old man's hand.

"Are you much better?" The old man felt Qi Ranming's pulse, "It's more effective than drinking a few big pots of herbal medicine. I can go to the ground and hold things."

Qi Ranming smiled: "It's much better, but it's still a while before he recovers."

The two entered the cave together. Although the old man was not young, he was 60 years old, but he had good eyesight. When adding firewood again, he saw the words Jiang Yu left behind at a glance.The old man glanced at those words, and when he heard Qi Ranming's approaching footsteps, he said with a smile: "Ming Ran, your friend, you are very attentive to you."

"Well," Qi Ranming said, "he is very good."

When Jiang Yu appeared in the cave, Qi Ranming was actually very surprised, or rather shocked.After all, as the commander-in-chief of the first army, it is not a wise thing to go out of the city at this moment for a general whose life or death is unknown.He has seen a lot of things about abandoning his car to save his handsome man. Even if Jiang Yu abandons him, it is just a repetition of old scenes.

Moreover, Jiang Yu also said "worried" to him, was he worried about him?

Qi Ranming didn't know how many times he had gone through a situation that was more dangerous than the present one, escaped from death countless times, and survived from the dead, so he didn't feel that there was anything wrong now.He hadn't experienced this feeling of being worried for a long time.

"This child is mysterious and mysterious. He said that he wanted to make something delicious. Just a little game from the mountain. If he cooks it like that, what flowers can he make?" The old man muttered to himself, seemingly disapproving , but the tone was full of smiles and anticipation.

Qi Ranming noticed that it didn't take long for the old man to address Jiang Yu from the gentleman to the child.

"Actually, I'm curious about what he will do." Qi Ranming said what the old man hadn't said.He was really curious that the pampered Lord Sui Yang, even if he was out on an expedition and had no food or clothing, he would not be able to make a living by himself. It is impossible that there are no servants around him.

"Yes, yes." The old man added firewood, took a deep breath, bent down, and blew on the charcoal fire. The dry leaves were immediately ignited, and the fire blazed up. After the handful of leaves were burned, The fire was small, but the dry wood had been lit.

"Old man, what about the others? Since we finished hunting, why didn't we come with you?" Qi Ranming asked.

"He," said the old man, "said he was going to find some spices, so let me come first."

Jiang Yu's search for spices was not smooth, but he still managed to find some spices like mountain pepper.And the lotus leaf for beggar's chicken is naturally not available, so I found another kind of big leaf to replace it.

Both of them looked at the strange blades of grass in Jiang Yu's hands in amazement.

Since coming to this world, this was the first time that Jiang Yu had tossed and tossed in the mountains just for one bite to eat.

"These are all..." Qi Ranming asked tentatively.

Jiang Yu put down all the things in his hand, straightened his waist, rubbed his forehead, wiped off his sweat, and said with a long sigh of relief, "I'll use it later!"

The old man hesitated and said, "All of these...can be eaten?"

Jiang Yu: "This is not for eating, this, this, this is a spice."

Qi Ranming pointed to a bloodstain on Jiang Yu's forehead: "Did someone beat you?"

"Huh?" Jiang Yu raised his hand to touch it, feeling a little tingling, and waved his hand, "I was scratched by a branch when I climbed the tree."

Qi Ranming smiled, and wanted to tease Jiang Yu with a few words, "The majestic Suiyang Lord...", but he was afraid of revealing Jiang Yu's identity.Although the old man didn't mean to betray them, but he could hide it if he could.

Jiang Yu didn't care too much, sat down and took out a few fruits from his bosom, threw two to Qi Ranming and a few to the old man, took one and gnawed on it, sat down on the spot, and said vaguely: "Although it's not I know what it is, but it should be edible, not poisonous, and quite sweet, eat it."

The fruit Jiang Yu picked looked like apples. The history of apple cultivation dates back to the Western Han Dynasty. At that time, they were not called apples, but Nai.Today is roughly equivalent to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and it is not uncommon for apples to exist.

Qi Ranming and the old man looked at each other. The old man had lived in the mountains for so long, so he had seen this fruit, but he was not the first person to eat crabs, and he never thought he could eat it.Seeing that Jiang Yu started to eat without any scruples, he lowered his head and sniffed it, then cut it open with a knife to see the flesh, it should not be poisonous, so he followed suit.

After resting for a while, Jiang Yu started to make her own beggar's chicken. She smashed the bones of the chicken legs with the back of a knife, and put spices such as Jiang Yu brought back and from the old man's house in it. Put a layer of spices on it, apply mud, wrap it with leaves, and bury it in the soil.

When roasting the beggar chicken, Jiang Yu sliced ​​wild boar into slices, spread spices on it, peeled a few bamboo sticks, put them on a skewer, and roasted them on the fire.

When Jiang Yu was doing all this, Qi Ranming and the old man looked at his skillful techniques with amazed and curious eyes.This kind of practice is unheard of for them. Although the chicken wrapped in mud and buried in the soil seems a bit difficult to eat, but this does not hinder their expectations.

Especially when the fire roasts the wild boar until it becomes oily and exudes a strong meaty aroma.

"Take it." Jiang Yu felt that roasting alone was too slow and tiring, so he stuffed a few skewers into Qi Ranming's and the old man's hands. It's burnt."

The two obeyed obediently.

"Where did you learn this?" Qi Ranming couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, and asked while watching.

Jiang Yu smiled and said, "Want to know?"

Qi Ranming's eyebrows twitched, and his eyes fell back to the meat on the bamboo stick: "If it's not convenient for you to tell, that's fine, I'll just ask."

Jiang Yu: "I said I made it myself, do you believe me?"

Qi Ranming turned to look at him.

Jiang Yu: "...Well, actually, I learned it from one of my subordinates, and it's their specialty."

"Where is it?" the old man asked, "I still came up with such a coup, it's a little troublesome, but it smells really good!"

Jiang Yu was silent for a while: "It's the area near the Di people in the north."

For some reason, Jiang Yu felt that Qi Ranming's eyes were half a smile, as if he didn't really believe what he said.

In order to cover up, Jiang Yu lowered his head and sniffed the meat on the bamboo skewer in his hand. It was roasted until it was browned and brown, and the oil was shiny, and the smell of spices must have gone in.It looks like it should be cooked.

Jiang Yu handed the skewer of meat to Qi Ranming: "It should be cooked, would you like to try it?"
