Chapter 832: Can It Be Eaten
But today, a new visitor suddenly appeared in the western part of the city, where no one had set foot since the accident.
Deep in the vast wind and snow.
A group of heavily armed cavalry struggled on the snow track, and the leading knight reined in his horse in front of a glacier, stared at the low mountain group that was faintly visible in the distance ahead, and after a moment of silence, he exhaled a white breath, "We are about to reach the location of the mountain villa in the west of Wangbei City, so we are finally about to reach the end of this journey." ”
"General, shall we continue on our journey now, or should we rest and recuperate before we set off?"
"There are still about thirty or forty miles ahead, it seems that we won't be able to catch up with Wangbei City before nightfall today, so let's rest overnight in those mountain villas, and we will set off again tomorrow morning." ”
"Yes. ”
After getting closer, I found that the originally beautiful and magnificent mountain manor forest had disappeared, leaving only the ruins of the walls, and even the high red brick fence was only left with a pedestal less than half a person high and had not collapsed.
At the signal of the leading knight, one of the lieutenants dismounted, entered the nearest manor with a long knife in hand, crossed the devastated front yard, and carefully guarded through a half-collapsed house, and finally stopped beside a stout old locust tree that could only be hugged by several people.
"Captain, ...... here"
The armor soldier who followed behind him held his blade desperately, although the weather was bitterly cold, the wind and snow were still there, but his back was already soaked in cold sweat.
The lieutenant took a deep breath of cold air and was about to say something, but was startled by a cry above his head.
He looked up sharply, and through the snowflakes, he saw that in the depths of the thick and luxuriant branches, a red-eyed crow two feet tall hung upside down, turning its head to look at him as well.
The next moment, the captain with the knife involuntarily rubbed his eyes, and closed and opened them again in disbelief, but he still saw the red-eyed crows full of trees, and Qi Qi turned his head to look at him.
At least hundreds of crows stood there, statue-like and motionless, just their heads bowed, staring at them with eyes that seemed to be red with blood, as if countless small crimson lights were lit up under the gradually dimming sky.
The captain swallowed a mouthful of saliva and shivered again.
Even the first one was enough to make people's hairs stand on end, but now it is a dense group, making people feel as if they have suddenly fallen from their earthly homeland into the depths of the ghost.
Chaos, cold, evil, bloody......
"Withdraw, withdraw, withdraw, withdraw!!"
Under the gaze of these upside-down crows, the captain was panicked, already in a mess, and when he turned to flee, he staggered and slipped to the ground, and when he got up, he didn't even bother to pick up the knife, and stumbled and rushed outside.
The armor soldier who followed him was also frightened by the scene in front of him, but his reaction was half a beat slower, and when he finally came to his senses and was about to turn around and flee, he suddenly froze in place, with a crying smile on his face.
Then, he lowered his head a little and looked at his shoulder.
There was a pale palm there.
Then he heard a hoarse, muffled voice that would make him actually cry.
"So much meat, so hungry......"
................................................
It's still the villa, the courtyard.
Everything doesn't seem to be much different than before.
The only difference is that there are dozens of soldiers in armor busy here.
Half of the collapsed building was cleared, and a cauldron was set up from somewhere.
The firewood under the pot is booming, and the soup in the pot is boiling.
The lieutenant and the sergeant, who were almost frightened at first, were sweating profusely, and were stirring desperately in the soup with two short guns to prevent the pieces of meat boiling inside from sinking to the bottom and sticking to the pan.
Farther away, some soldiers were trying to feather the crows with their blades, some were finding all kinds of furniture from the collapsed houses to make fires, and some were cutting down the branches of the old locust trees to clean the courtyard.
Only the general who led the team sat there with one person, waiting for the arrival of the first pot of stew.
"King Chitose of Zhennan, this meat ...... Can it really eat?"
Gu Juan was carrying a crow in his left hand, and the palm of his right hand spit out red flames, and he quickly roasted it thoroughly, and directly tore it and ate it, and then took the wine bag handed by the armored general and drank a few sips before wiping his mouth and said, "General Shan, I heard a fox say not long ago that as long as you are hungry, you can even eat, let alone plucked bird meat?"
"It's just that the roasted meat is a little dry and hard, so I asked you to find a pot to stew...... But your wine is good, and your temperament is strong enough, and you can get on it. ”
General Shan looked at the broken bones on the ground, and said with a careful smile, "It's good that the Chitose Lord doesn't think the wine is hard to swallow, and there is still a lowly position, and I will bring it all for the Chitose Lord in a while." ”
"Go, go, go, go now, I'll wait here. ”
Gu Juan nodded without a smile, reached out and grabbed the next red-pupiled crow, picked up a war knife and shaved it familiarly, and then put it in his hand and began to barbecue.
General Shan quickly took the wine bag from the war horse, and then just saw the first batch of stewed meat coming out of the pot, so he hurriedly went over and personally brought the rice bowl and sent it to Gu Juan together with the wine bag.
Next, the two of them ate meat, drank wine in a big bowl, and occasionally poured some hot broth, which was really a rare enjoyment in this cold weather of wind and snow.
Half a catty of soju in his stomach, the single staff general who had been restrained until his hands and feet were stiff finally relaxed himself, and even patted the fart of Zhennan Wang Chitose, which was much smoother and more natural than at the beginning.
Although it is difficult for the Holy Order to leave the land of Gyeonggi now, and it is impossible to receive any decree from the Emperor in a border area like Wangbei City, General Shan is still a Chitose Lord willingly, extremely smooth, and without stagnation.
After all, the ghost in front of him appeared here without warning, unreasonably slapped the big tree hugged by several people, and shook a large group of red-eyed crows to death as a strong man who barbecued.
Not to mention anything else, just this god's elusive body and the fire control technique of the raging flames at every turn have already made their gang have no idea of resisting.
So don't say it's a few calls to Zhennan Wang Chitose, even if you let General Shan open his mouth to shout his father, for the sake of himself and the lives of his subordinates, he must have a spring breeze on his face, open his mouth with a smile, and lick until he can't lick anymore.
After eating for a while, the single general who was in charge of serving meat in a bowl for His Royal Highness King Zhennan was already numb.
He couldn't count how much meat he had eaten and how much soup he had drunk.
Twenty bowls, thirty bowls, or fifty bowls?
Doesn't he have to go to the toilet at the old man's house?
Finally, under the dull gaze of General Shan, Gu Juan drank the last mouthful of broth, put down the dishes and chopsticks and exhaled a mouthful of wine contentedly.
"Your stew skills are good, and if you are not a soldier in the future, you can open a restaurant, and this king will definitely go to support it." ”
General Shan asked cautiously, "Has Master Chitose eaten well?"
"Actually, I'm still a little hungry, but I'll get tired of eating too much of these birds, so let's do it first. ”
Gu Juan glanced at the stunned expression on the other side, and then showed a smile and said, "Don't you believe it?"
"Believe, believe! The thousand-year-old lord's golden body, Chrysostom and Yuyan, how can you not believe it?"
"The main thing is that I've been hungry for I don't know how long, and it's normal to be able to eat some. Gu Juan raised his head and stared at the night sky that had completely darkened, and sighed, "It's just a pity that the fox tail and all kinds of other ingredients that have never been seen before, but before I had time to really eat a bite, I couldn't eat it." ”
"There were a bunch of interesting people I had seen before, and some of them were interesting people I had met for the first time, and before I had time to say a few more words to them, and then get some benefits, they all disappeared strangely and inexplicably. ”
"Judge you alone, does this situation like I'm having a weird dream?"
