"Brother, why didn't you keep your promise at the beginning of the army? Now, the Tang Empire is in crisis, but you are hiding in the deep palace, doing everything inside and outside, doing everything you want, not setting up a prince, and sitting and watching the heirs fight, why? At the beginning, you didn't worry about your brother, but now, you can't even believe your own son? ”

"Son of Heaven, do you really have to be alone?"

The abbot raised his eyes and looked into the distance, muttering to himself, next to him, the senior brother stood respectfully, not even raising his eyebrows, as if all these words were like a thunderbolt on a sunny day to outsiders, and it was just an autumn wind and drizzle.

"Jianyin, for the teacher Yanmo, for the teacher to write a few letters, greetings and greetings a few old friends...... I haven't seen them for more than ten years, and I don't know what they look like now. The abbot turned around and sat down in front of the desk.

"Master, presumably they must be eager to know your news." Senior Brother Jianyin said with an amiable smile.

"Alas, there is no way, for the sake of that criminal, the old man can only pull down this old face, really, others can't ask me for face, but I gave it to that stinky boy, by the way, what about those children?"

"They are all very good, they eat well, dress warmly, and they are very serious in every class every day, during this time, the little junior brother paid a sum of money to the account of the school, saying that he was worried that when he was not there, it would not be enough to support, so he gave it in advance."

"Oh, how much did that kid give?"

"I took a total of 50,000 taels."

"So much? What is he doing with all this? The abbot was taken aback.

"The little senior brother originally took 20,000 taels to hand over the account of the academy, and wanted to take 30,000 taels to pay it to the temple, which is his filial piety to the master, but he was rejected by the disciple, so he simply put it all on the account of the academy, saying that even if there is a disaster in the future, this money must be able to save the lives of more children."

"This kid, I didn't expect to be so hearted, but also, I earned hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and I should take out tens of thousands of taels, otherwise, the old man will go to this kid another day." The abbot of the dream smiled and stroked his beard for a long time, and then jokingly said.

"If the master goes to Huayuan, even if the little junior brother takes care of the clothes and household belongings, he has to meet your needs, right?" Senior Brother Jianyin said with a smile.

"Nonsense, being a teacher is not a cheeky guy like Xuanzhen, speaking of which, although this kid has earned hundreds of thousands of taels, he cooperates with others, and he also needs a large amount of investment, and he takes out 50,000 taels at once, which shows his character and is a sincere person."

"That's natural, otherwise you wouldn't have passed on your mantle to him."

"Okay, okay, don't shoot the ass of the teacher, it's important to get down to business." The abbot couldn't help laughing out loud, and began to write a letter to his former bureaucrats who were far away in Beijing.

"Stop, stop." On this day, Duan Shaojun, who went to the riverside and took two beauties to take a trip around in autumn, and Duan Shaojun, who was about to return to Lanting, suddenly reined in his horse's head and raised his hand.

Xu Xiangjun and Gongsun Chuchu, who were also riding on the horse, obediently reined in the horse's head and looked forward curiously. I saw nothing, and there were neither pedestrians nor cars on the dirt road along the river.

"Wait a minute. Whoever you are, lend me your waist knife, no, give me a piece of the scabbard, hurry up. After Duan Shaojun turned over and jumped off the horse, he kept waving at the Xu Mansion guards on the side.

Quickly took the horizontal knife from the hand of the Xu Mansion guard who looked inexplicable, this thing is more than a meter long with a handle, well, the distance. Duan Shaojun was satisfied and let everyone stay where they were, and then walked forward for more than a dozen steps before stopping.

In front of him was a snake, a very fat, with markings on its body like a five-step snake with fallen leaves in autumn, looking at this thing, Duan Shaojun's saliva began to secrete, yes, whether it is stuffy snake soup, or stewed dragon fèng soup, or cold snake skin, or stir-fried dragon robe, and what kind of fried keel. Muma, it's a mouthful of saliva when you say it.

Of course, the five-step snake is very poisonous, and after being bitten by this thing, the chance of being rescued is much lower than that of other snakes. Therefore, even frequent hikers will generally shy away when they see this snake.

But who is Duan Shaojun? Excellent gourmet, famous game master, the best chef in the perennial team of travelers, and an expert snake catcher. Others catch snakes to sell them for money or something, but Duan Shaojun catches snakes for food.

When I was a child, I used to eat it often, and when I grew up, in the big city, I didn't have the opportunity to taste this delicacy at all, only when I went on a trip and hiked, I had the opportunity to catch one or two to try it.

Of course, it's really rare to see a five-step snake like this fat and thick. At this time when there is no wildlife protection law, I am really sorry for myself and the people of Lanting who were bitten by snakes if I don't get some wild meat to fill my stomach.

Duan Shaojun, who was dedicated to eliminating harm for the people, approached cautiously, and sure enough, the five-step snake with a short temper and fierce personality raised its head vigilantly after Duan Shaojun approached a distance of one zhang, and the red snake letter kept spitting.

Duan Shaojun cautiously lowered his body, and then slowly walked forward, the sheathed horizontal knife in his hand approached this fat and fierce five-step snake little by little, his hands should be steady, and his eyes should be steady.

"What is he doing here? Sister Xiangjun. Gongsun Su rode the horse and Xu Xiangjun side by side, looking curiously at Duan Shaojun's obscene background of bending over and arching his head, he really couldn't imagine that his usually heroic and high-spirited lover would become so obscene at this moment.

"Who knows, it's up to him, man, it's just a child who doesn't grow up." Xu Xiangjun looked at Duan Shaojun's back angrily and funny, and sighed helplessly and dotingly.

Hearing this, Gongsun Su Su couldn't help but smile, and nodded thoughtfully, Duan Shaojun is indeed too out of tune sometimes.

Just as the two women were commenting on Duan Shaojun, over there, Duan Shaojun finally let out a cheer and raised his arms high. "Aha, what did I catch?"

After the two women who were originally smiling and groaning saw clearly the thing that kept writhing around Duan Shaojun's arm, they let out a scream in unison that was enough to tear the sky.

"You, what are you asking me to say about you? Such a dangerous thing, you actually did it without saying a word, do you still have me in your eyes, and do you have Sister Su Su, have you considered your fiancée who is far away in Beijing, and have you considered your master's feelings? Xu Xiangjun had a dark face, and kept talking to Duan Shaojun.

Duan Shaojun laughed with a disgraceful face, and repeatedly assured that he had not been bitten, and he had often done this before, and he would be fine. He also explained to these two resentful beauties that these five-step snakes not only have good medicinal value, but also are extremely delicious.

As for the five-step snake, under Duan Shaojun's strong request and insistence, it was left behind, but the five-step snake that was strangled into the size of an apple by the strip of cloth on its entire head was thrown into a cloth pocket in despair, and an unlucky Xu Mansion guard cried and mourned, and carefully used the sheathed horizontal knife as a flat shoulder to pick this thing in the air, trying to keep this thing away from himself and his mount.

"This thing is poisonous, how dare you eat it?" Xu Xiangjun raised his hand to cover his forehead, looking like he was about to faint, and the grandson Su Su next to him was no better.

"You ......" Duan Shaojun looked at these two women with exaggerated expressions and movements with a dark face, and he was dissatisfied for a long time. Why can't this be eaten? Let me tell you, the more venomous the snake, the more delicious and tender its flesh is, and eating its flesh and drinking soup can also remove the damp poison from the body......"

There are many ways to make snake meat, and Duan Shaojun has mastered a lot, and he often served as a chef when he was still at home, and he was also in the team of donkey friends. Under its eloquent narration. Xu Xiangjun and Gongsun Su Su went from disdain at the beginning to half-belief at the end.

And when they heard that snake meat has the effect of whitening skin care and wrinkle removal, Xu Xiangjun and Gongsun Su Su's eyes suddenly lit up. Dear, does it really have such a beauty effect?
