"Are you going out today?" Hua Rongyue said, leaning on her chin and looking at the two young girls in front of her.

"There is no other way. They are all going out, so we can only follow them out," said the little girls.

After staying here for a few days, Hua Rongyue became very familiar with the girls in front of her. Of course, this was mainly due to Hua Rongyue's good-looking face.

Baicaotang is not far from the inn over there. The two sides often look at each other from a distance, and the little girls over there know that there is a clerk here who has a good temper and is very efficient in doing things.

Of course everyone likes to see handsome guys, so now the little girls come to Baicao Hall for a walk if they have nothing to do.

This reminded Hua Rongyue of the scene in Quan'an Town when the boys under her would go out to see beautiful women... exactly the same.

"If you go out, remember not to go far." Hua Rongyue said, "It's been quite dangerous here recently. People with knives and swords are often seen wandering the streets."

"We're not afraid of this." A girl laughed immediately, "We..."

Another girl next to her scolded her and she shut up.

However, it was easy to feel her carelessness from her attitude. Hua Rongyue didn't try to persuade her any more. She took a few sachets and handed them to them and said, "These are our newly made herbal sachets."

, if you like, you can take one and wear it."

"Is that okay?" A girl was stunned for a moment, took one, put it on her body, and thanked Hua Rongyue.

"But if you really want to go shopping, you'd better not leave at night." Hua Rongyue said.

"Huh? Why?"

"Because it's more dangerous here at night."

…

Hua Rongyue's words were true. Although she had just taken control of a Huo village some time ago, she had no idea how many lunatics there were secretly. And "Huo Zhuang" was just a shelter for these lunatics.

That’s all.

These people are walking around pretending to be crazy, which is really dangerous.

What's even more dangerous is that Hua Rongyue has to be wiped by them from behind.

In the afternoon, Hua Rongyue watched them go out again as expected.

This group of people did not listen to her. If they went out at this hour, they might not be able to come back after dark.

She put down what she was doing, slowly took out a small jar from her pocket, and released a small beetle from it.

After the beetle flew out, it seemed to have found its direction and flew slowly in one direction.

Hua Rongyue also followed the insect and walked forward slowly.

"Where are they going?" Hua Rongyue followed them slowly to an inaccessible place. Hua Rongyue rarely visited this place, but they could actually touch this place themselves.

She took a look at her attire and decisively took out the black hat she had prepared in advance and put it on her head.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, she gradually noticed some very noisy sounds in front of her. Hua Rongyue frowned slightly and stepped up her pace to pursue them.

"Have you encountered anything in the past few days?" the people in front whispered as they walked.

"We haven't met him yet, but yesterday the government arrested someone and gave us some news." A girl said in a low voice.

"Tell me more about it."

"The government office has been arresting people in the past few days. When the police patrolled the streets yesterday, they happened to meet a man who drank too much and went crazy in a pub." The girl said, "I thought he was just an ordinary drunkard.

As a result, that person suddenly mentioned something while they were arguing."

"He said he knew the lunatic who was the subject of recent rumors."

"Huh?" Several people nearby turned around in surprise after hearing this, "He knows that madman? How is that possible?"

Isn’t that madman a non-existent person? How could anyone have seen him?

"The people in the yamen also thought it was strange, so they took the person back and interrogated him for a long time. It turned out that the person was really not lying. He did see a very powerful lunatic in a place."

"I don't know the specifics. The government is still reviewing it. They will tell us when there is news." The girl rubbed her forehead, "But I heard that the madman seems... to be a man wearing a black hat.

"

"This is really weird." Someone nearby seemed to have heard some strange talk in the world, "How can a person appear out of thin air?"

"I don't know. But it is said that the person who was taken to the Yamen was actually very afraid of that man, because when he talked about that man, he was shaking all over."

Hua Rongyue, wearing a bamboo hat on her head, slowly followed behind, and gradually came to a lively and prosperous place.

Where is this?

The neighborhood was so lively that Hua Rongyue almost thought he was in some downtown area, but when he looked up, it was not the place, but a long, unknown snack street.

There is a big sign at the street entrance, just like the snack street where Hua Rongyue often bought breakfast in modern times. This simply gave Hua Rongyue the illusion of traveling through time again.

Oops? When did such a street open here?

As soon as Hua Rongyue got closer, she smelled the spicy smell, which was the smell of chili peppers, and there was also the sound of "sizzling" frying in her ears.

The smell of sautéed scallions and thick soup floated in the air, and the sound of chopping vegetables was particularly rhythmic in my ears. It seemed that someone was greeting the guests.

It seems good to be able to suddenly find such a snack street place after work. If there is a chance, maybe I can bring Dr. Qi and the others to have fun. After all, this place seems to be quite suitable for the young couple from Baicaotang to go on a date.

Wan Fulian and Xiao Han were the kind of people who wanted to show off their affection no matter what. Hua Rongyue felt that they had almost visited all the surrounding attractions, but they had never heard them mention such a snack street.

But having said that, is it too presumptuous for a civil servant to come to a place like this while on a business trip?

"Why is there such a long snack street here?"

The people from the yamen in front were also talking in low voices. The one named "Xiao Chong" said in a low voice: "I recently met a few obsessed people. They said they wanted to invite me to dinner. At this place, I

I brought you here."

As soon as they walked in, they saw several people standing at the door. When they saw them, they quickly waved, "This way!"

"Is it them?" asked a few people following Xiao Chong, and Xiao Chong nodded.

"You guys arrived just in time." A man who came to see Xiao Chong smiled. He looked quite simple and said to the group of people: "Let's go in quickly. I just made a table."

Food is waiting for you."

This man's name is Chen Ke. When he smiles, he has the typical farm boy look, with a kind of sincerity in his honesty.

He looked at the people brought by Xiao Chong and said in surprise: "You brought so many friends here? Then the meal I originally prepared may not be enough."

"It's okay, we won't eat and drink from you for free." Xiao Chong also smiled.

The expressions of the people following Xiao Chong were a little strange. They seemed not to have expected that they would come to such a place full of life.

The world of madmen is twisted, so their lifestyle will naturally become a little weird.

It's just that the place in front of me doesn't look strange at all, which is a strange thing in itself.

Especially this Chen Ke doesn't look like a madman, he feels too simple.

Everyone wanted to ask why, but they didn't dare to say anything for fear of disturbing Xiao Chong in front of them.

The few of them walked into this street talking and laughing. Just when Xiao Chong was about to step across the boundary of the brand, Chen Ke suddenly asked him, "Do you still remember what I told you before?"

"Huh? Remember." Xiao Chong nodded.

"Be sure to bring money with you when you eat, and don't argue with the chef when you eat something that doesn't good. Don't go to the stalls after the stall owners close their doors at night. The farther away the stall owners are, the better the food will be."

Chen Ke also nodded. He turned around and walked directly into the street without saying another word.

"Follow me to my stall." Chen Ke greeted them enthusiastically. "I sell steamed buns here. My family is poor. I have learned how to make steamed buns from my mother since I was a child."

Everyone stepped into this street one after another. As soon as they entered, the aroma almost hit their noses crazily.

Those who fry fried dough sticks, those who spread pancakes, those who grill kebabs, and those who fry meat patties.

The beetle released by Hua Rongyue was still following closely at first, but after a burst of chili pepper smell wafted over, it suddenly seemed to have lost its sense of direction and began to spin in circles.

She caught the beetle back, put it back into her jar, and then looked up at the snack street in front of her.

Seeing that there was a place selling cakes at the stall near the street entrance, Hua Rongyue smelled the sweet fragrance of the flowers and thought to herself that they were mashed flowers, mixed with noodles, and then used the most exquisite mold to press out cakes.

It looks like it was steamed.

Hua Rongyue has always had a special appetite for Jiangnan's pastries, and she felt a little itchy when she saw the pastries.

Huarong Yuexin said that since they had already lost track of him, it would be better to have something to eat before leaving.

With this idea in mind, Comrade Hua Rongyue, a "civil servant" who was supposed to be on a mission, also slipped into the snack street with brisk steps, and then quickly rushed to the place selling sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, "Mrs. boss, here you go."

I’ll get a packet of sweet-scented osmanthus cake.”

"okay."

The gentle-looking landlady held an oil paper bag in her hand and gave Hua Rongyue a full bag of pastries, which was half as much as outside. When Hua Rongyue took it, she had to hold it with both hands.

Is it so generous? Hua Rongyue felt inexplicably flattered. She took out a piece of pastry, opened a little hat, and d it a little. The pastry melted in her mouth, and the aroma of flowers filled her nose.

"How is it?" The proprietress smiled and said to Hua Rongyue, "My mother taught me this craft. You will never this kind of when you go out."

Hua Rongyue swallowed the mouthful and took another bite. The pastry still melted in the mouth, and there seemed to be some mung beans added to it, giving it a slightly rustic texture.

She admitted this. Hua Rongyue was silent for a while, nodded, and said to the proprietress, "Well, you will never find another one with a similar outside."

bitter.
