When the morning star appeared in the night sky, the messengers in red, who had recovered their energy after a night of repair, began to pack their bags. After offering a stick of incense to the cemetery where monk Daoming and the victims were buried, they
Under the leadership of Qin Shaoyou and Qin Qiaoer, they mounted their war horses, held torches to light up the road, and continued to set off in the direction of Qingtang Guard.
Last night, the red-clad messengers had a great time eating hot pot.
The demon wolf meat that Mr. Gunshan brought back was not enough for them, and they were all eaten up in a short time.
In particular, several pieces of wolf kidneys were fought over by many people, and there was almost no fight.
This also made Su Jianqing, Su Tingyu and Qin Qiaoer wonder why so many people like to eat something with such a strong smell?
Brother Cui didn't feel comfortable either. He immediately led people into the mountains and found several tiger monsters and mountain spirits that had harmed people. After examining their crimes, he brought them to justice, tied them back, washed them, cut them into slices and boiled them.
Only then did everyone feel satisfied and happy to eat.
Qin Shaoyou did not join in the fun with them, but he also ate the Blood Moon Tofu cooked in the hot pot, as well as two new dishes, Qunyin Gathering and Sha Lei.
The blood moon tofu is smooth and tender in the mouth, salty and delicious, spicy with a hint of coldness, and not fishy at all. It is so delicious that Qin Shaoyou wishes he could imitate Hou Yi and shoot down the blood moon hanging in the night sky.
As for the two new dishes, Qunyin Hui Cui and Sha Lei, the former is crispy with a hint of coldness, and when paired with the hot pot's Blood Moon Tofu, it tastes authentic.
The latter is even more surprising. Among the sweetness, there is actually a slight tingling sensation, as if there are countless small electric currents dancing in the mouth.
This reminded Qin Shaoyou of the popping candies he had eaten in his previous life.
However, the taste of Shalei is obviously richer and more delicious than popping candy, and the numbing stimulation on the tongue and mouth is also more enjoyable.
I heard that the popping candy in my previous life was used in special moves by people in certain special industries. I wonder what it would be like if Sha Lei were used like that?
Of course, Qin Shaoyou was just curious in his heart. He was not Zhu Xiucai, but he was reluctant to waste Sha Lei. After all, the effect of this dish really surprised him.
After eating the evil thunder, Qin Shaoyou activated the vomiting method to absorb the effect of this dish, adding a trace of thunder and lightning power to his blood.
Although the thunder and lightning is still very weak, after some practice, Qin Shaoyou found that the thunder and lightning can be controlled and he can choose to hide it in the body or activate it with his blood.
At the same time, Qin Shaoyou also discovered that thunder and lightning not only had the effect of defeating enemies and suppressing evil, but could also paralyze enemies.
This immediately made him think that if at the critical moment of fighting the enemy, he could take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness and release thunder and lightning to paralyze the enemy. Even if it could only paralyze the enemy for a short moment, it would be fatal and change the situation of the battle!
After eating the Gathering of Qunyin, Qin Shaoyou also mastered the method of leaving the body.
Just because he was a beginner, he couldn't let his soul go too far, and he needed more practice.
For this reason, Qin Shaoyou went to Cui Youxian specifically to ask for advice. He praised Senior Brother Cui very highly in his words, which made Senior Brother Cui very happy. He didn't even need Qin Shaoyou to ask, so he proudly taught the Jade Emperor Temple's Soul Cultivation Secret Technique.
, told Qin Shaoyou everything.
This night, Qin Shaoyou's harvest was the biggest besides Monk Ma.
Of course, the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch served three new dishes in a row, and he was full of food and drink. He was extremely satisfied, and even had a smile in his eyes.
Everyone is happy except He Crab who is not very happy.
After Qin Shaoyou made Qunyin Gathering and Sha Lei and cooked the Blood Moon Tofu, it originally wanted to wait for Qin Shaoyou to pack a portion for Bai Qingjiang Shuibo so that he could run errands and deliver it.
However, Qin Shaoyou considered that Xinglong Mansion was too far away from the Baiqing River, and the mountain they were on had no river. If River Crab wanted to deliver food, he would have to climb down the mountain first and find a river.
But in the deep mountains shrouded in night, there may be some kind of evil spirits hiding there.
Although the river crab is big, its fighting power is not very good. If it is in the water, it can still use its water properties and the aura left on it by the Baiqing River Shuibo to gain the power of a fox and a tiger.
But on land, once you encounter evil spirits, it will probably end up delivering food to people.
After comprehensive consideration, Qin Shaoyou did not ask He Crab to deliver food, nor did he prepare new dishes for Shui Bo of Baiqing River. He planned to visit Shui Bo Temple on the bank of Baiqing River in person after returning and deliver new dishes.
Although He Xie accepted Qin Shaoyou's arrangement, he seemed a little unhappy.
Seeing this scene, Qin Shaoyou didn't say anything, but Zhu Xiucai had a lot of doubts. Did Gu say that the little crab wanted to steal food on the way to deliver the food?
As a result, He Crab heard what he said, and he immediately waved his pliers angrily, asking 'Shishi' to clean up the house.
Unfortunately, its abilities were far inferior to Zhu Xiucai's, and Zhu Xiucai used his blood energy to directly lock it up, giving it a good scolding.
The red-clothed envoys who gathered around the Yuanyang Pot cheered when they saw this. They gave Zhu Xiucai all kinds of bad ideas and asked him to teach the river crabs a lesson, while they quickly fished out the meat in the pot to eat.
When Zhu Xiucai returned from training the crabs, he found that most of the meat in the pot had been taken out by the grandsons, leaving only some scraps for him. Only then did he realize that he had fallen into the trap. He was so angry that he only scolded the grandsons for eating the food.
Then he was dealt with by the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch, and he was wrestling with his left foot and right foot...
After another day of driving, Qin Shaoyou and the others left Xinglong Mansion and entered the jurisdiction of Qingtang Guard.
The order here is slightly more orderly than that of Xinglong Mansion.
It's not because there are so many ghosts and evil spirits here that there are fewer rogues and bandits, but because the border troops of Qingtang Guard are patrolling, the evil spirits and evil spirits and rogue bandits don't dare to act as arrogantly as they did in Xinglong Mansion, so they hide in the dark.
Move quietly.
At first glance, it seems that this place is orderly, but in fact, it is full of undercurrents, and the level of danger is no less than that of Xinglong Mansion.
After Qin Shaoyou and Qin Qiaoer entered the jurisdiction of Qingtang Guard, they encountered several groups of patrols from the border army.
When these frontier troops saw them from a distance, they dispersed their formation, drew their bows and arrows, assumed a fighting posture, and asked them about their identities.
Even after they took out their badges and announced their identity as the Red Envoys, these border troops did not relax their vigilance. On the contrary, Qin Shaoyou was keenly aware of the hostility shown by these people, even because they were the Red Envoys.
A few more points were added.
"It seems that the people here in Qingtangwei are not very welcoming to our arrival."
Qin Shaoyou squinted his eyes, looked at the border troops who were eyeing them, and whispered.
Qin Qiaoer had expected this and was not surprised at all. He chuckled and said, "They thought they had withstood the alien invasion on the front line, but we didn't help. Instead, we came to investigate them while they were killing the enemy in blood.
His comrades, even arresting them, it’s strange that they welcome us!”
After a pause, Qin Qiaoer lowered his voice and reminded everyone in the team: "Don't think that you can relax your vigilance when you arrive at Qingtang Guard! We are probably more dangerous here than elsewhere. Because we have to guard against more than just
There are enemies and there are our own people..."
