On the official road, the morning breeze blew and light snow drifted randomly.
A maroon horse appeared in the mist, its hooves cutting through the night. The man on the horse carried a Fanyang felt hat on his back, his rock-like chin showed a beard, and there was a navy blue forehead band on his head.
, there is a large green mark on his face, and the palm holding the reins is thick and hard.
Behind him, more than a dozen knights followed, it was Li Yu and his party. Pan Jinlian couldn't ride a horse, so behind Li Yu, she hugged his waist tightly. The Jade Lion of Zhaoye let go and ran wildly, and the two of them bumped up and down on the horse.
After walking for a long time, they left Kaifeng Mansion and saw a valley. Yang Zhi waved his hand and said: "Headmaster, seeing that it is getting late, why not rest here for the night."
"good."
Li Jun's men began to set up the tent. These salt sellers were all accustomed to living in the wild. They worked together and the tent was set up in a short time.
Li Jun took out a small copper pot from his arms and threw it to Yang Zhi, "Take a sip to get rid of the cold!"
Yang Zhi raised his head and drank a few sips, and a line of fire suddenly burned straight down his throat. It was so strong that his throat seemed to be burned. He gasped: "Good wine!"
After wiping his mouth and throwing it to Shi Qian, Shi Qian followed suit and took a sip. His throat hurt because of the spicy taste, so he jumped up and said, "What kind of wine is this?"
"Hahahaha." Li Jun's men all laughed.
With this unlucky guy in mind, Huang Xin took a small sip. It was still very spicy, and his whole body felt hot after drinking it.
"What a strong drink."
Li Jun smiled and said, "We learned this from the barbarians who fished and hunted in the snow in the northern grasslands. Their method of brewing wine is very different from ours."
After saying that, he looked at Yang Zhi and said with a smile: "You took a big gulp of my wine and you were the first one who didn't scream out. You have a good capacity for drinking!"
Yang Zhi just chuckled and did not answer. He stood up and looked around cautiously.
Li Yu joked: "Yang Zhi, don't read it. We are not escorting any birthday plans this time. We are not afraid even if thieves come."
Yang Zhi laughed, turned his hat over, and said loudly: "The Sa family was bitten by a snake once, and feared the well rope for ten years."
There is a large river in the valley, which is completely frozen at this time, and the ice is still covered with thick snowflakes.
Tong Wei and Tong Meng walked to the frozen water, broke open a hole, and soon caught a lot of fat fish. Tong Wei pulled out a dagger from his calf, divided the fish by two, and gutted the fish.
I took it out and washed it in the hole in the ice.
Li Yu sat on a piece of wood, holding Jin Lian's hands to warm her, and instructing Shi Qian to find some pieces of wood to light a fire.
When Shi Qian lit the fire, Xiao Jinlian smiled and rummaged through her luggage for a while and took out a large paper bag filled with cooked food such as sesame cakes, sauced meat, and braised chicken.
Li Jun cut a few small wooden sticks, stuck the fish on it, and grilled it on the bonfire. Xiao Jinlian rummaged through the bag again and took out Sichuan peppercorns, salt, star anise powder...
Everyone was stunned. Li Yu smiled sheepishly and said, "When you go out, you have to be well prepared. Otherwise, if you don't eat well, you won't have the strength to travel."
"As expected of the headmaster, he only thinks about Zhou Dao." Li Jun said with a smile.
"If you have a pot, you can stew a pot of fish soup. The best one in cold weather." Li Yu was still not satisfied and said in a low voice.
Jin Lian next to her quickly remembered it and planned to buy a small pot to take with her next time she went to the county town.
Li Yu saw the third brother Ji Lao and said, "Do you want some too?"
"No, we are fasting recently," said Short Bei.
"Eating vegetarian food?" Li Yu said with a smile: "When I was in Jingyanggang, I never saw you having this habit."
Shortback scratched his head and said with a smile: "To tell you the truth, we found a cultivation method at the bottom of the cave, and you have to eat fast to practice it."
The only three monsters actually ate food. Everyone present was a little surprised, but they didn't think much about it.
A group of people were eating and drinking when suddenly, a strange sound came from the ice cave dug by Tong Wei.
Li Yu immediately made a fireball and hit it to the river. He saw a hand stretching out from the small hole.
The hand was pale and slender, with a ring on its finger. It was grabbed in the air and then pressed onto the ice.
With a bang, a figure jumped out of the ice cave that was only as big as the mouth of a bowl.
Yang Zhi's hand was already on the handle of the knife, Li Jun also stood up, and the two of them stood at the front.
Shi Qian, Huang Xin and others also put down their food and came forward. Li Yu stretched out his hand and pulled Xiao Jinlian behind him.
The three demons of Jingyanggang were hiding behind Pan Jinlian, raising their legs and stretching their heads to look outside.
I saw a woman crawling out of the water. She was wearing coarse clothes, with several parts exposed and covered with scars, but she didn't care.
It seems that she was thrown into the water and flowed along the river from under the ice. She was able to survive even though she was alive, which shows how tenacious her vitality is. If Tong Wei hadn't punched a hole in the ice, she would still have survived.
I don’t know how long it will be floating down there. It’s such a cold day that ordinary people would freeze to death in just a few minutes if they were thrown in there.
The woman shook her head and seemed to be more awake. She squeezed her pale fingers a few times and moved them away before looking towards Li Yu and the others. The woman's beautiful eyes were black and white, but her gaze was as sharp as a knife, with a murderous determination.
Shi Qian and others immediately fell silent after she glanced at them with such vigor.
This woman has neither a watery oval face nor a round oval face. She has prominent cheekbones and a high nose bridge. She has a heroic spirit that is contrary to the softness of women in the Central Plains. There is still a hint of feminine femininity in her masculinity, making her beautiful and unique.
Look at those half-exposed calves, which are straight and slender. Standing up, they are probably a head taller than Li Yu.
She looked around, her eyes lingering on Yang Zhi for a moment longer, then she suddenly sniffed hard and said with a smile: "It's a good wine, can you give me a sip or two?"
After emerging from such cold water, there were still several wounds on his body, and he asked for a drink as soon as he opened his mouth. Everyone present looked at each other in shock.
Li Jun felt like he was facing a formidable enemy, so he took off a wine bottle from his waist and threw it from a distance.
The girl tossed her wet hair back, pulled out the stopper, raised her head and put the wine bottle on her mouth, half a palm away, the wine flowed down, and she drank it in one breath.
After finishing the drink, the woman's face turned a little red and she stared straight at the grilled fish. Her meaning was self-evident.
Li Jun said without thinking, "Miss, please do it."
He has traveled extensively and has seen a lot. This woman's power is so amazing that no one present is likely to be a match for her.
Fortunately, she didn't show any malice. If the wine and meat could be used to get rid of the problem, she certainly didn't want to cause trouble.
Li Yu thought carefully and was extra cautious. He had just brought down the Daxiangguo Temple, and he was afraid that this girl was here to take revenge.
The woman put her long legs on the ground, squatted on the ground, picked up two wooden sticks, and ate them one by one.
Her movements of eating fish were smooth and flowing, and after a while, only two fish skeletons were left.
Wiping her mouth with lingering thoughts, the woman smiled and said: "Thank you for the hospitality. I am penniless and don't know anything else. If you need to kill someone in the future, just let me know."
After saying that, she patted her butt and was about to leave. Li Yu quickly asked: "I haven't asked the girl her name yet. How can I contact you if I want to kill someone in the future?"
The woman was obviously trying to be polite, but she didn't expect anyone to actually ask. She looked weird and turned around and said, "Lu Lingqi, please get in touch...just let it go."
Li Yu took a deep breath, no wonder he was so handsome.
