No matter what, the assassination of the Sheep Girl finally gave the two of them a wake-up call.
If you live in this black shop, you have to be careful at all times.
If you don't pay attention, it will become mutton buns the next day.
In this way, only three days have passed, but it feels like three years have passed.
Li Chen and Li Sao finally received good news: Dazhou's supply team has arrived.
As Shali Fei said, within a radius of three hundred miles in the sand sea, there is only this one black shop.
Even though the soldiers were riding on a tiger-like fairy boat, there was nothing they could do against the wind and sand.
Once you enter the sand sea, you will inevitably stop here to rest.
"General Cai?"
"Isn't it General Huang?"
Shali Fei glanced at the dozen or so Zhou soldiers sitting together in the middle of the hall.
Each of them held a cage of hot steamed buns and stuffed them into their mouths without caring about the image.
The general sitting above the soldiers was not much better.
He has a wide mouth and a square nose, and a powerful face. He looks no more than thirty years old, but he looks fair and fair, not like a man in the army at all.
Among these people, he is the most delicious.
Shali Fei's eyes darkened. In the past, General Huang never ate steamed buns.
"Who knows?"
It was the same waiter from yesterday, wiping the table, but his eyes were still scanning the faces of Li Chen and Li Sao.
Especially the look in Li Chen's eyes made people salivate.
"The mutton supply has been very bad these days, and we are a little bit out of stock."
"Are you really not going to pay off your debt first?"
Then he used his chin to nuzzle towards Li Chen.
"This tender one is worth two."
Li Chen was stunned for a moment and almost didn't react.
Li Sao next to her bulged her cheeks: "What do you know? The monk's flesh is firm and his teeth are springy!"
But the waiter looked at him with disdain and silently uttered a few words: "Thick-skinned."
“Not tasty.”
Li Sao was furious when she heard this and wanted to chop a piece of meat for him to taste.
When Shali Fei saw this, he quickly drove the waiter away: "It's disappointing."
"Master Li Sao, don't be angry. He doesn't understand. The taste is mainly related to the cooking techniques."
"Master Lichen is suitable for cutting raw, but you are best suited for frying."
Shali Fei quickly calmed down Li Sao's mood.
“Another basket of mutton buns~”
At this moment, the white-skinned general in the middle of the hall had already finished eating a whole basket.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect that in such a wilderness, there could be such delicious food."
"This tastes much better than the duck fat buns in Shendu~"
After saying that, he didn't forget to suck the oily flowers on his fingers.
And the top soldiers under him also quickly flattered him: "Yes, yes, if you follow General Cai, you will have meat to eat."
"The sheep from Shahai are delicious."
"Hahaha, open it up and eat~ I will take care of it, General"
"Boy, please put in a few more cages."
"Come on~"
Looking at the soldiers feasting, Shali Fei's mouth twitched.
That's it, if you are not a member of the army.
If you eat meat buns today, they will become meat buns tomorrow.
"I didn't expect that the court would change its general this year."
"In the past, General Huang was very easy to talk to as long as he used some gold, silver, spiritual stones, etc., and it was no problem to bring a few passers-by with him.
But I don’t know what General Cai’s character is like.”
While he was talking, the general named Cai suddenly shouted: "Is the camel leader here?"
Upon hearing this, Shali Fei stood up quickly and bowed to General Cai to say hello: "General, little Luo Sanshan is the one leading the camel."
But I was thinking: Fortunately, I know that crossing the sea of sand requires camels.
General Cai took the basket handed over by the waiter, picked one up while it was hot, put it in his mouth, and chewed it, and his mouth was full of oil.
"Suck, ha, suck, ha."
"You're the only one who used to...suck...ha, lead the camel for General Huang?"
Shali Fei still leaned over and said with a smile: "That's right."
"Yes, Not Bad."
His mouth was full of buns, and I didn’t know whether he meant he was a nice person or that the buns were nice.
"Hurry up and eat. After we finish eating, we'll be on our way."
On the road?
When walking in the desert, you should avoid hearing such unlucky words.
Although Shali Fei was unhappy, he still nodded in agreement with a smile.
"General Cai, there happen to be two other eminent monks who are going to the Western Regions to participate in the auspicious Dharma ceremony. Can you join us?"
"Hmm? Master?"
General Cai still sucked the meat bun in his hand, but glanced at Li Chen's table.
Seeing this, Li Chen and the other two stood up and clasped their hands together: "Amitabha."
"Please take care of me, General Cai."
Obviously General Cai didn't seem to care much.
"Oh, eminent monk?"
"Come, eminent monk, and have a bun~"
As soon as these words came out, the soldiers in the hall suddenly burst into laughter.
In their opinion, monks do not eat meat, and General Cai deliberately said this to make fun of him.
But they didn't know that the two of them came from Suicide Temple and were not afraid of eating meat, they just didn't eat human flesh.
Li Chen was not angry and just quietly took out a token from his arms, flashed it as if by accident, and then put it back into his arms.
This token is all purple and gold, with a flying eagle of incomparable stamina engraved on it, and three green cat's eyes inlaid on the top.
"Pfft~"
General Cai's eyes were wide open, and he didn't believe his own eyes.
Although it was just a glimpse, the three gems were so dazzling that it was difficult not to see them clearly.
That token was none other than the "Three-Eyed Hualing Haidongqing" spirit beast token that was rewarded by Emperor Zhou.
Moreover, there are three cat's eyes inlaid on it, and only Zhou Xungui and senior officials of the Xuanjing Division are qualified to hold them.
The monk in front of me...
Don't dare to think, don't dare to think.
"Cough cough cough~"
The buns in his hand no longer smelled good, so he raised his hand and hit the heads of the soldiers who were laughing the most happily, and hit them hard.
"Smile, smile, smile, sir!"
"Didn't you know that mages are vegetarians?!"
"Ge Lao Tzu's!"
Bang bang bang~
General Cai beat his men to a pulp, then threw the buns away and casually wiped his hands on the soldiers.
He quickly trotted up to Li Chen, nodded and bowed and said, "Master, the young general Cai Xuqin is too blind to see Mount Tai. Please forgive me, Master."
Li Chen curled his lips and didn't bother to argue with him: "Amitabha."
"You're welcome, General Cai. My brothers and I will rely on General Cai on the way."
When General Cai heard this, he immediately patted his chest and said, "Master, don't worry, even if you risk your own life, you still have to protect the two masters."
This scene surprised everyone in the store.
The waiter at the shop thought he was going to have a good show.
I secretly thought in my heart: If the general got angry, he would just kill the fair monk, because there just happened to be not enough mutton in the store.
But I didn't expect that the general suddenly changed his face 180 degrees.
So the waiter was very surprised.
Of course, what was even more surprising was Shali Fei beside him.
Originally, he thought that the situation was not good and the two monks might not be able to join the team.
Little did he expect that beating the two monks he picked up on the road would actually make the aloof General Cai nod and bow.
What are the backgrounds of these two?
