This year's monsters are super fierce [75]

Did Meng Zhi run away from marriage?Was there another person who eloped with her?Just by guessing, it is impossible to guess the specific answer.

Zhan Zhao sorted out all feasible routes from Xuanzhou to Xingwang Town.It not only invited people from the government office to inquire about the accommodation records of Tutu Foot Store two or three years ago, but also sent inquiry posts to organizations in the Jianghu that specialize in inquiring about gossip to collect any relevant information.

After all, there are few people in the world who have tracked down his whereabouts for several months like Bu Zhen.

Even if it was Bu Zhen, who didn't know the exact location, many traces of him were found along the way.When Feng Huang arrived in Jiangnan, according to the complete tattoo, he should be able to catch someone.

Therefore, someone should know about Meng Zhi's whereabouts.

"Miss, there are nine No. 40. Yang Langjun said that he knows about the old affairs of the Meng family, so he wants to ask the lady to play a piano."

Autumn Equinox said and handed the envelope to Qin Ning, "Now, Mr. Yan and Liu Lang have gone to the bookstore. Do you want me to ask that person to change the name and come back?"

Since three years ago, Qin Ning and Wangqinlou's mother have changed the contract, reducing the number of guests they receive.

Except for the fixed performances every ten days or two days, I basically don't go out to play the piano, and I don't go to listen to the piano if I don't like it.Strange guests who intend to invite her to play the piano must write something on the letter paper, even if it is a sentence that moves her.

Very few people would make Qin Ning break the rules.

However, this time, in order to find out what happened to Meng Zhi half a year before her death, Qin Ning said that she would meet anyone who brought clues.

It was inevitable that some people fished in troubled waters, and the ugly words came first, and anyone who falsified would be put on the blacklist in the future, and she would never be able to play the piano for them.

Never underestimate the power of fans.Even though there is no such thing as star-chasing in this era, those who are good at playing the piano are moved by the news, wishing to hold a stack of old news from the Meng family in an instant.

If listening to Qin Ning's song is not attractive enough, then once the news is verified, Liu San will write a song for you?What about short ghost stories tailor-made for you by Mr. Weird?

The ill-spoken picture book of strange tales was spread to Jiangnan, where book fans specially nicknamed her "Master Weird", and many people's New Year's wish is to go to Bianjing to listen to an opera.

He doesn't care much about address.

During this period of time, Zhan Zhao went to find out whether it was related to Meng Zhi according to the news reported by the township hotels below, and she stayed at the Wangqin Building to help fuel the fire, hoping that the clues would come to the door as soon as possible.

At the end of February and the beginning of March, Xuanzhou City was almost boiling over the news.

[-]% are fans who come after hearing the news, and [-]% are speculators sniffing out business opportunities.They themselves are not interested in Song and Song Zhiguai, but they can resell the opportunity to individual people at a high price.

Now it is to find out about the situation of the old people related to the Meng family, and it is not a crime, so it is not necessary to act quickly.

Valuable clues were long in coming, though.Just like the 48 guests Qin Ning met, they all really came with old news and things from the Meng family.

The Meng family used to be a wealthy family in Xuanzhou. When the family was ruined, they sold their properties. All the objects brought to Wangqinlou were from this source, but it was of no help to investigate the changes in Meng Zhi.

Qin Ning glanced at the sky.It was almost dusk, Yan Buzhou and Liu Yong probably would not go back upstairs for dinner.She opened the envelope first, and there were no love poems or funny words in it, but a scribbled and altered piano score.

The visiting Yang Langjun is a qin fanatic. This is the score he made himself. I hope Qin Ning can give me some pointers.

These days, he went through many twists and turns to get an old item of Mengzhi. He always longed to meet the qin master in his heart before leaving Xuanzhou tomorrow.

"Please come in Yang Langjun."

Qin Ning has stopped reporting and hopes that someone can tell exactly what happened to Meng Zhi. Right now, she is just inviting someone into the house for a piece of music score.

Yang Langjun didn't expect to see Qin Ning immediately, and hurriedly put the long box he was holding on the table.

He scratched his head with a silly smile, and explained everything in one go without any tricks.

"Miss Qin, the person who sold this thing to me assures that it is Meng Zhi's purple bamboo hole flute. I don't know much about flute research, but I can tell that it's a good flute. It doesn't matter whether it's true or not, it doesn't matter if you buy it." Fortunately, I bought this as a gift for you, just ask Miss Qin to play a piece of my score.

Four years ago, I had the honor to listen to Miss Qin's piano.At that time, I thought that if I could compose a song for you in this life and listen to you play it, I would die without regret.I've been working on this for years. "

It's a pity that it took four years of revisions to come up with a score that can be called barely.

Qin Ning couldn't say such shocking words even holding the sheet music.She had some vague impressions of Yang Langjun, he seemed to be a rich young man from Hangzhou, who had said back then that he would come to her again with the music score.

"Yang Langjun has a heart. However, don't say that you can die without regrets. You are still young, and there are thousands of beautiful scenery in front of you. It would be a pity to stop at this score."

Everything the goddess says is right, and everything the goddess plays sounds good.

Yang Langjun nodded vigorously, he was ready to listen attentively.

In the twilight, Qin Ning rarely played a piano piece whose score was yet to be improved.Outside the small courtyard, people occasionally pass by and hear this song, but they don't feel that it is not perfect.

The sound of the piano is moving, and superb fingering skills are important, but more importantly, there is emotion.After reaching a certain level, the most important thing is whether you can give the piano with emotion.

As soon as this song came out, it showed the enthusiasm and original intention of young people chasing their dreams.

There is bitterness and joy, even if you never get the affirmation of others, you still put all your eggs in one basket and are not afraid of failing.

Yang Langjun left with a smirk, for him the lingering sound will linger for many years.Before leaving, he blushed and said, "I want to listen to Miss Qin's piano for the rest of my life", but he rushed out of Wangqin Building without daring to hear the answer.

Qin Ning shook her head with a smile, not paying attention to the words that seemed to be a promise.How many spring flowers and autumn moons she has seen, she also understands the fickleness of people's hearts.

Without the piano, how many people really can't live?Just like this purple bamboo flute is a rare and excellent product, but it can only fall into the hands of rich and noble people.When the family is ruined, it is not about to be sold out.

This purple bamboo hole flute is engraved with the word "Yu Li" in gold.

The flute seller told Yang Langjun that 'Yuli' was Meng Zhi's watchword.The Meng family used to be rich with wine making, and Yuli was both fine wine and fairy liquid, so this was in line with Meng Zhi's identity and background.

It is said that Zizhu Dongxiao was sold by Meng's father to pay off the debt, and later was redeemed by Ge's family, who gave it back to Meng Zhi as a betrothal gift.When the Ge family and the Meng family had accidents one after another, this hole flute was lost in the market again.

The story is well written, but it is difficult to tell the truth from the falsehood.Whether Dong Xiao is Meng Zhi's old thing, I am afraid that only she can give a positive answer.

Qin Ning was measuring the flute in her hand, the workmanship of this thing was so exquisite that people who love music couldn't help but want to try it.Even though she is not as good at playing wind instruments as she is at plucking plucked instruments, she is eager to give it a try right now.

This idea came quickly and fiercely, the hole flute seemed to be radiant and attracted the holder to play fairy music, but people ignored the slightly hot phoenix tail feathers in the paper bag on his chest.

24 On a moonlit night at the bridge, where can the jade man teach me how to play the flute?

The sound of the flute scattered into the wind, lingering on the side of the small courtyard of the Wangqin Tower.

Amidst the faint sorrow and joy, a yellowish memory appeared before Qin Ning's eyes.

In the bamboo grove behind Mengjia Winery, a seven-year-old girl learning to play flute for the first time can't get in tune no matter how she plays.

When the girl was upset, walking with her head down, she bumped into the boy from the wine shop who came to fetch water from the bamboo forest, and knocked the eight-year-old boy onto his back and fell to the ground.

That year, there was a breeze in the bamboo forest.Girls wear fine clothes and brocade clothes, and boys wear coarse cloth bunts.

Unexpectedly, the young master couldn't bear to apologize, but the young man dared to say something to mock someone, and his voice was ugly.

When I was younger, I didn't care so much about the difference in status.Some seemingly impossible friendships are formed unconsciously.

Some people think that this kind of friendship is the simplest and does not change due to changes in family background.

When the winery changed hands, the girl became impoverished from rich clothes and fine food, and her mother died of overwork to pay off her debts.

In front of her dead mother's grave, the girl did not see those old friends of Yan Yan, only the boy brought most of her savings and told her to hide them for emergencies.

Later, the bold father became extremely gloomy, and the gentle elder brother rarely smiled.

On a certain spring day, the girl glanced enviously at the girls passing by the door. They were wearing new clothes and carrying food baskets, chatting, laughing and going out for an outing.

There was only one glance, and the girl's father looked straight at her.One day before the girl's 11th birthday, she was severely whipped by her father, and she will never forget his father's mean and vicious words.

'Want to have a good time, huh?Then marry to the Ge family.You should be thankful for the marriage contract you made, otherwise, what high branches can you climb in this life? !

If you want money but don't have money, and you don't want appearance, any big family will want you.Useless things are not worth much when they grow up like this and sell them in the building. '

At that moment, the girl clearly realized that the father who used to praise her daughter was dead.The whip wounds all over the back were treated by the aunt next door who couldn't see it.

On the day when it was agreed to meet in the bamboo forest, the boy heard what the girl had suffered.

He vowed that if her fiancé is not a good man, even if he becomes an enemy of the world in the future, he will definitely take her away.

Swear to Tiancheng, the wind in the bamboo forest will not stop.

When the wind was blowing, the girl played a flute, or she was not talented, and the song was still out of tune.

Five years later, the girl's fiancé died of a disgraceful disease.Who would have thought that her father would want her to marry and be a widow, just so that the two families could help each other by becoming in-laws.

The boy sneaked over the wall, and he wanted to fulfill his oath, and he must not let the girl ruin the happiness of the rest of her life.

The two fled desperately, taking all the family wealth they could carry, and set out from Xuanzhou to the south in a secretive way.

Thinking of going to the south of the Lingnan, the south is not the business scope of the fiancé's family, so they can find a small village with a different name to live in.Let go of the past and spend the rest of your life in peace.

Unexpectedly, something happened suddenly.

On the small road beside Xingwang Town, the boy said that he had a stomachache and wanted to go to the woods to solve it, but he was never seen again.

The girl in the carriage became more impatient as she waited, and ran into the woods with a lantern and gradually lost her way.

When she heard the sound of footsteps in the forest and saw a row of flames flickering, it was her fiancé's brother and a group of thugs who came.

'Want to ask who gave the news?It's your adulterer Xiang Zheng.Xiang Zheng noticed that I was leading a team to hunt him down, and he sent me a letter, hoping to exchange you for our Ge family to let him go.

It was a beautiful idea, he should have escaped in a carriage at this moment.It doesn't matter to let him run first, anyway, the most important thing is to catch you, the eloped bitch/talent first! '

'I don't believe it, you caught him and beat him up, right? '

The girl shook her head almost crazily, firmly disbelieving that the boy would betray her, but she was thrown a letter in the face.The not-so-proper words in the letter were written in the boy's handwriting, and it said that he would abandon her and enjoy a good life alone.

At the end of the letter, it said, "I don't want to run away anymore. It's not like fleeing with a celestial beauty, fleeing to a barbaric place like Lingnan, what's the point of facing a faceless girl all day long.

If it is Miss Qin Ning, the great beauty of Xuanzhou, then the young one will still fight.This meeting only asks the Ge family to show their hands high, and the younger one will help you capture Meng Zhi, let the younger one go. "

In a trance, Qin Ning watched the changes in the story. At this moment, she seemed to be there, in the dark grove, and a foot ahead was the girl with tears streaming down her face and almost despair.

"Don't—" Qin Ning didn't finish her voice before watching helplessly as the girl took out the golden hairpin from her sleeve and stabbed it into her own heart, the blood instantly covered the clothes.

The golden hairpin fell into the grass, but the girl slowly turned her head to look at Qin Ning.

"When there were great changes at home, it was Xiang Zheng who was by my side; when my father and brother were completely changed, it was Xiang Zheng who was by my side; when I knew the disgusting things about Ge Wu, it was Xiang Zheng who was by my side.

When I had no choice, whether to marry into the Ge family and be a widow, or not to flee far away, it was Xiang Zheng who came to me and said that he would keep his promise.I don't understand why he betrayed me. Is it because I look ordinary and I don't deserve that sentence.

Miss Qin, how much I want to be you for a day, to feel the difference in the life of a beauty?Just one day, go ask Xiang Zheng, if as long as I am no longer ordinary, he will not change? "

Meng Zhi looked at Qin Ning expectantly, "Miss Qin, are you willing?"

Qin Ning had shed two lines of tears at some point. Meng Zhi's past was too sad, and Meng Zhi's eyes were so sincere that she almost nodded.

At this moment, Qin Ning felt a burning sensation in her chest, and a smell like burnt feathers spread out.

Now there is no small bamboo forest in the dark, it is clearly in the Wangqin Building.

At some point, Meng Zhi had already appeared in a green wedding dress.She was holding the hole flute in her hand, only a flute away from Qin Ning.

As long as Qin Ning said she was willing, Meng Zhi could naturally possess her body.

It's too late, it's too soon.

'Kang——' The window was slammed open from the outside.

Yan Buzhou raised his hand and threw a few talismans at Meng Zhi's location.She heard Xiao's voice a few blocks away, it was definitely not right, and when the sound came out, it suddenly became ghostly.Immediately, he used the few flying talismans and rushed to the small courtyard of Wangqinlou.

Right now, Yan Buzhou didn't give Qin Ning a chance to speak at all, and tightly covered her flowers with both hands.Using skillful strength while turning sideways, she brought Qin Ning half a foot away.

Almost at the same time, only Dongxiao let out a sharp ghostly howl.

If it wasn't blocked by the power of the virtual mirror, this sudden eruption of ghostly spirit could make people deaf forcibly.

Meng Zhi was thrown upright by the talisman paper, and howled in rage in pain.

She really wanted to use this to deafen the incoming people and take the opportunity to escape, but she didn't expect to urge the attached hole flute to float towards the window. As soon as half of the flute flew out, the second half was caught by a strong force.

Before Meng Zhi urged her to break free with all her strength, she suddenly felt a rush of gangster energy, almost sealing her entire ghost body.

"Why! Why! None of you men are sympathetic! I just want to live the life of Miss Yiqin. I want to know what the life of a beautiful woman is like? Will I not be disgusted by others or betrayed by others? .That's all."

Yan Buzhou looked at Meng Zhi expressionlessly.Needless to ask, from the word betrayal, one can probably guess that Meng Zhi's elopement partner betrayed her.

"There's a lot of nonsense, why should I believe you. Meng Zhi, no matter what happened to you, did the eight Ge family members have any grudges against you? They died in the fire. Not to mention, the fire burned 21 people , 15 of them suffered severe burns and died of illness in less than half a year.

"They are fellows of the Ge family, so they deserve to suffer!"

Seeing Meng Zhi's poor words and reticence, her originally sad face turned grim. "Just as I am the Meng family, I am destined to pay off the debts for the Meng family. I cannot escape the marriage contract, and I will never recover if I am revenged by the Ge family. Why should I sympathize with them."

Then there is nothing to say.

Yan Buzhou directly activated the power of Xu Jing, and her first question was whether Meng Zhi had a third avatar.

Although Meng Zhi was extremely unwilling to answer, the power of the virtual mirror directly controlled her thoughts and gave an answer that could not be faked.

A nobile hairpin and a hole flute, those are the two things Meng Zhi cares most about.What she longed for but never got, she had to put her soul on it after death.

Nobile has endless hatred, and Dongxiao has endless resentment.Meng Zhi's obsession is to know how Xiang Zheng is doing after escaping from the Ge family.If he lived well, I really wanted to kill him alive.

Yan Buzhou lowered her eyes slightly, she received a letter from Zhan Zhao, saying that there was a small group of bandits in Cangyu Mountain.

The head of the family is probably Meng Zhi's old story, Xiang Zheng. Two years ago, the head of the Zheng family took a pile of treasures to the mountain, recruited soldiers and bought horses to build a cottage, and specifically intercepted and killed merchants passing by.

"As far as Xiang Zheng is concerned, I will deal with it fairly."

Yan Buzhou was a disguised promise, but she didn't directly probe, but asked Meng Zhi's second question. "Tell me, where is Bu Zhen?"

Meng Zhi looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, all the strength was mobilized in the laughter, she was not incapable of hurting people and escaped, but she was able to commit suicide here.

"Hahaha, without Bu Zhen, I would not be able to take revenge. He helped me, and the grace of rebuilding is hard to repay in this life. Remember, I am different from them, even if I am a ghost, I will never betray my benefactor!"

As soon as the words were spoken, Dongxiao burst open, and it was so broken that it could no longer be put together again.

Yan Buzhou immediately stretched out his hand to grab it, but it was a step too late, he couldn't grab anything, only the Yin Qi drifted away.

Inside the house, there was silence for a while.

Qin Ning finally stabilized her emotions, wiped away her tears and didn't look at the fragments of the flute anymore, but went to Yan Buzhou's side and said worriedly, "Master Yan, are your ears alright with that loud noise just now?"

Yan Buzhou also raised his head, and she smiled and asked Shang Qin Ning, who looked like she was taking care of the flower messenger, "Could it be that I look like a self-sacrificing person?"

Qin Ning didn't even want to nod her head heavily, but she just shook her head resolutely without saying a word.

"I'm not that stupid. Only after making sure you won't hurt yourself will you help others."

Yan Buzhou waved his hand and walked towards the door as he said, leaving no concern for Qin Ning.She didn't dare to recruit more peach blossoms, to avoid things that might be promised by others for saving her life.

"Let's have someone clean up the ground, just treat it like normal garbage. It's all right here."

is it?

Qin Ning didn't believe this answer, but shook her head with a smile.

Meng Zhi was wrong about one point, she must be favored if she is not a beautiful woman.

Qin Ning knows that what people are most afraid of is losing themselves.Just like she was tempted by Dongxiao just now, she almost pushed herself into a dangerous situation.Fortunately, she will not be confused by the momentary gratitude, and put the feelings of the rest of her life into it.

Midnight, Cangyu Mountain.

In the past two years, a group of bandits brought up by Xiang Dao Scar has been entrenched here.Because of the wrong judgment of the terrain in the previous two encirclement campaigns by the government, he was allowed to escape.

This group of bandits held high-quality weapons especially at the beginning of the war, and later intercepted and killed some caravans, and even had constant money to arm the cottage.

In the night, the people in the cottage didn't notice a figure looting from the roof, it was because they had clearly felt the topography of the whole cottage inside and out.

Zhan Zhao took advantage of the darkness to cover his figure, and recorded the defense distribution of the cottage in detail one by one.

At the foot of the mountain, the army to encircle and suppress the bandits had assembled again, and he did not expect that after investigating Meng Zhi's past, he would find out about the Shanzhai.

I searched all the way from Xuanzhou to Xingwang Town, and finally found out that there was a couple of teenagers and girls staying overnight two and a half years ago.The girl's appearance was the same as Meng Zhi's, and after checking the boy's whereabouts, Xiang Zheng's trace was lost near Xingwang Town.

Unexpectedly, after expanding the scope of the search, it was discovered that a group of rich bandits had arrived in Cangyu Mountain half a year ago.The leading brother is nicknamed Xiang Dao Scar, and his real name is Xiang Zheng.

This time, Zhan Zhao cooperated with the army, and he was in charge of investigating the armed situation of the bandits in Qingshan Village, which must have made the third encirclement and suppression a success in one fell swoop.

Stepping on the spot went well.According to the map obtained by stepping on the site, the experience of two more failures was summed up, and the third time the army went up the mountain to quietly outflank was also very smooth.

When someone shouted in the cottage, it was too late for these bandits.

The encirclement and suppression soldiers broke into the entrances and exits on the three sides, and the encirclement and suppression army was almost invincible. They attacked the most important defensive points of the cottage one by one.

Xiang Zheng was still hugging left and right on the bed, and he heard the sound of golden swords outside, and suddenly realized that he had successfully avoided the siege twice before, but this time he was knocked on the door calmly.

He jumped up to get the weapon, when the window of the room was kicked open from the outside.

The next moment, a long sword was directly across the side of Xiang Zheng's neck.

Blood was dripping from the tip of the sword, it might not be Xiang Zheng's blood, but if he moved randomly, it would be difficult to say.

Zhan Zhao only asked Xiang Zheng a question first, "You stole Meng Zhi's dowry just to create such a fake village that murders people and robs money?"

Before the siege, Zhan Zhao had checked Xiang Zheng's past.

Knowing that Xiang Zheng used to be a clerk in Meng's winery, he and Meng Zhi probably knew each other when they were young.It is not difficult to explain why Meng Zhi ran away with him at great risk.

As a result, Meng Zhi was arrested and returned to Ge's house to die, but Xiang Zheng spent two years in wine/chi/meat/lin.

Xiang Zheng froze and didn't dare to move, he was afraid that the sword on his neck would shake.At that moment, he looked at the unfamiliar Zhan Zhao, and realized that someone would check Mengzhi and find out about him.

It must be that the encirclement and suppression army joined hands with the masters who wielded swords like lightning in front of them, and the stronghold was clearly discovered, so it was breached tonight.

"It turned out to be the bad luck brought by that ugly monster!" Xiang Zheng spat angrily, only to feel that the sword on his neck was sticking closer to the skin, and he simply broke the jar.

"I'm telling the truth. Meng Zhi's looks are very ordinary. Peony is a ghostly genius, she's not worth my life, I don't want to be hunted down by the Ge family!

Stealing her dowry, I just want to live a happy life.In the past two years, all the Ge family members died unexpectedly, and the life in this cottage is as happy as the gods. "

At this moment, the encirclement and suppression soldiers opened the door and entered, and handcuffed Xiang Zheng with an iron lock.

Zhan Zhao looked at Xiang Zheng who was taken away, and asked lightly, "Xiang Zheng, don't you regret it? We met when we were young, and after the Meng family changed, the only person Meng Zhi can trust is you, right? If you do this, you How can you bear to kill a person who believes in you?"

Xiang Zheng's footsteps paused, as if he felt remorse for a moment, but he only shook his head.

"When I was young, I didn't see the world, so I thought I could be a hero. Later, I realized that the life of a coolie is really hard.

When such a large amount of money is put in front of me, it doesn't make sense. I choose Mengzhi over money.If you choose her, you will live in peace and incognito.I don't want that, I would rather be happy for a short time for two or three years.As for conscience and love, can that be controlled? "

The staggering sound of the chains got farther and farther away.

Zhan Zhao watched Xiang Zheng being escorted down the mountain, and the stronghold was destroyed overnight, so he put the sword back into the scabbard.

Looking at the mountains and the moon in the sky, I am afraid that the moon on the fifteenth day can't tell clearly. How many people in the world do not forget their original intentions and start well and end well?

"Oh, Mr. Zhan. Everyone else has gone down the mountain, why are you the last one?"

Lu Hao ran over panting, and walked around Zhan Zhao back and forth, without giving Zhan Zhao a moment to think about it.

"Hurry up, go to the carriage with me. I have to make sure that your left shoulder does not have a recurrence of the old injury. Before going out, I told Master Yan that I will take good care of you after leaving the military order. Don't make things difficult for me, can you?"

"Success, it must be done." Zhan Zhao nodded helplessly.Before he set off, he promised to pay attention to the injury, as long as he did what he said, he would be able to lift the ban later and no longer have a comprehensive taboo.

On the first day of April, Xuanzhou City is as lively as ever.

Except for a few people, no one knew what disputes had happened between the Ge and Meng families.At most, people would sigh that Xiang Zheng, who used to be a clerk in Meng's family, turned into a bandit.

Yesterday, Xiang Zheng was sentenced to death.A few days ago, Miss Qin Ning offered a bounty for the old affairs of the Meng family, and people all imagined that it was probably to investigate the bandits.

If the cottage is taken over by one pot, then everything will return to normal.

Inn courtyard.

Yan Buzhou didn't continue to live in Wangqin Building, after Meng Zhi passed away, she stayed in the inn and waited for Zhan Zhao to return to Xuanzhou.

Now, she was sitting at the desk, looking out the window in a daze.The ink dripped onto the paper without knowing it, because the new "Ghost Story of the Golden Hairpin" has a difficult ending.

From Ding Niangzi to Meng Zhi, faced with the orders of their elders and the words of the matchmaker, they would die if they didn't escape, and they would die if they escaped.Indisputable, being stepped on by relatives to rise to power.Those who dare to fight, but it is difficult to prevent the old people's hearts from waiting for leisure.

The world is so difficult, should the stories in my pen end in a comedy?

"Since you can't decide, don't think too much about it for now."

Zhan Zhao came behind Yan Buzhou, took the pen from her hand and put it aside.Not letting Yan Buzhou continue to struggle with this, he pulled her up. "Let's go, let's go to a good place together, so that you can completely forget about these troubles."

"Ah?" Yan Buzhou was pulled up in doubt, and was pulled out of the inn, "What a good place? Why didn't you say hello in advance?"

"Do I have to say hello in advance? What if I want to surprise you? Don't worry, I won't sell you out."

Zhan Zhaozhi made a promise to get on the carriage in a hurry, which made Lu Hao walk towards the west gate, and they rushed out of the city before dusk.

surprise?What surprise can make people forget all their troubles?

He didn't know what to say, so he watched the carriage leave the city, turned from the official road into a country road, and finally stopped in front of a farmhouse.

The door was ajar, and there was a burst of fragrance from inside.

In an instant, Yan Buzhou's eyes widened.She hadn't smelled this long-lost aroma of beef soup since she came to Song Dynasty.

If Bianjing wants to eat sheep, it will cost a lot of money, at least spend money and eat lamb.

Beef, however, is different.The imperial court strictly forbids the slaughter of cattle, and if found, they may be imprisoned, because cattle are used to plow the land.As for cattle that do not cultivate land, there is no such herd breeding these days.

Therefore, I want to eat beef, and I want to eat healthy beef.It is impossible for the cow to get old, sick and die, so we have to wait for the cow to have an accident.

For example, when Geng Tian accidentally crashed into the road and died, the cattle themselves were healthy, so they had to be registered with the county government so that they could eat beef once in a while.

"Zhao Zhao, how did you find it?" Yan Buzhou looked at Zhan Zhao excitedly. "You know I, Xiao, have wanted beef for a long time?"

This surprise came too suddenly, but he couldn't be more satisfied if he couldn't say it properly.

The ancients never bullied her. There is no problem that cannot be solved by a meal of food. If there is any problem, eat a few more meals.

Zhan Zhao also laughed, it was rare to see Yan Buzhou so happy. "I remember everything you said. Including the phrase 'There are sheep but no cattle, it is a pity.' In the past half a month, Captain Sun and I went to suppress the bandits. His cattle accidentally hit a tree and died early this morning. Let's invite everyone to pack a meal. I have the cheek to bring you to eat."

It's really everyone eating together.

There were already seven or eight people sitting at the round table, and Liu Yong and Qin Ning, who was dressed in men's clothes, had also arrived earlier.Captain Sun is Qin Ning's fan, and Liu Yong brought along delicious food, similar to how Yan Buzhou was brought by Zhan Zhao.

Captain Sun laughed when he saw that everyone was here, "Open your stomach to eat today! One cow, ten people may not be able to finish it. I made a few beef stir-fry dishes, and some slices of beef are ready to be boiled in the pot. What are you doing? Remember, there are fast hands, but there are no slow hands!"

There are ten people at a table, not all of them are familiar with each other.

However, Captain Sun was very good at stirring up the atmosphere. After drinking three glasses of light wine and two cups of light wine, everyone let go of their restraint, and no one kept their chopsticks into the pot humbly.

The fire was simmering in the pot, and the soup was steaming hot.

Eat it with white radish, galangal, and green vegetables in the pot, and you don’t feel that eating meat will make you feel tired. Instead, it brings out the tenderness and juiciness of fresh beef.

At this moment, the diners' noses, lips and teeth were filled with fresh and sweet aromas.

Zhan Zhao put down the chopsticks in his hand at the right time, because he remembered the doctor's order not to eat too much for now.

As soon as he turned around, he found that Yan Buzhou was completely immersed in the world of beef.That satisfied expression was [-]% similar to that of when he was full of grilled chicken in the middle of the year, and he didn't even care about the sauce on the tip of his nose.

Zhan Zhao stared at the piece of sauce for a long time, and then looked around again. Amidst the mist and heat, everyone was eating hard.He finally called out in a low voice, "Ayan..."

"Huh?" Yan Buzhou subconsciously turned his head, why didn't he say the words, Zhan Zhao took this opportunity to touch the tip of her nose with a handkerchief.With a single swipe, the sauce was wiped off.

Zhan Zhao smiled and shook the handkerchief, the brown on the white was particularly obvious. "Little greedy cat, the corner of the mouth is still there. Wipe it now, or wait a while?"

Before he could say anything, Liu Yong, who was passing by, seemed to hear someone talking and raised his head.

Yan Buzhou saw an afterimage passing by, and there was an extra handkerchief in his hand, and Zhan Zhao had already picked up the chopsticks again, and went to pick up vegetables as if nothing had happened.

Who said it was a dumb cat!
