After saying goodbye to everyone, Zhao Kai, Huang Rong, and Mu Nianci rode horses and sang together, feeling very at ease. As they got along with each other these days, a subtle tacit understanding was finally formed between the three of them, and Huang Rong also
Just like before, he was always competing with Mu Nianci.
On this day, when we arrived at the border of Taining Army in Qingfu on the east-west road of Beijing, it was close to the Dragon Boat Festival, and the weather was already quite hot. The three of them galloped for a long time, and a red sun shone directly above their heads. Huang Rong and Mu Nianci's foreheads and
My back was covered in sweat. The dust on the road was flying, making my face greasy and uncomfortable.
While walking, I suddenly heard the sound of gurgling water behind a row of big trees. The weather was sultry at this time, so it would be a great thing to have a stream to cool off. I saw Huang Rong speeding towards the stream.
Shouted with joy.
Zhao Kai looked at Huang Rong's joy, shook his head with a smile, and said to Mu Nianci beside him: "Let's follow him too." Mu Nianci nodded with a smile, and followed on horseback.
Zhao Kai rushed over and took a look. It turned out to be a deep stream with a clear bottom. The bottom of the stream was green, white, red, and purple small round pebbles. There were weeping willows on both sides of the stream. The branches were brushing the water, and there were countless fish swimming in the stream.
.
At this time, Huang Rong had already taken off her coat, jumped into the water with a plop.
Seeing that Huang Rong was having fun, Zhao Kai dismounted his horse and approached the stream. He saw Huang Rong raising her hands high and grabbing a herring that was about a foot long. The fish's tail was moving wildly and it was struggling desperately.
Huang Rong shouted crisply: "Catch it." Then she threw the fish directly onto the shore.
Zhao Kai knew that the fish was slippery and difficult to catch, so he wrapped it in cloth and threw it aside.
Huang Rong was obviously very happy playing in the water. She clapped her hands and laughed, shouting: "Brother Zhao, come down and swim."
Zhao Kai saw Huang Rong having fun in the water and didn't want to spoil the fun, so he took off his coat and jumped into the stream with a splash.
"Sister Mu, come down and play too." Huang Rong shouted while looking at Mu Nianci who was hesitating on the shore.
Mu Nianci's face turned red. After hesitating for a moment, he shook his head slightly and said, "I won't go down. Just have fun."
"Sister Mu, go and give me my coat, and I'll get something." Huang Rong said with a smile.
Mu Nianci had no doubt that she had it, so she went to get Huang Rong's coat and give it to her. However, Zhao Kai already knew that Huang Rong might have some bad intentions. As expected, the moment Mu Nianci arrived at the stream,
Huang Rong pulled on her feet. Mu Nianci lost her balance and fell into the water. In a panic, she immediately took a few sips of water.
Huang Rong smiled and helped Mu Nianci up, and said with a smile: "Haha, sister Mu doesn't have to be so outgoing, just come and play together." The three of them played until the sun went down and then returned home having fun.
During the journey of the three of them, this kind of thing happened from time to time, and the relationship between the three of them became increasingly close and harmonious. However, there would always be some surprising things happening in these ordinary years.
The three of them were playing in the water. It was already approaching night, and their stomachs began to growl.
Zhao Kai found some orange branches and lit a fire. Huang Rong and Mu Nianci took out their clothes from the package and changed each other. Mu Nianci dried the wet clothes on the fire, while Huang Rong went out to find ingredients.
After a while, Huang Rong came back, and she got a big rooster from nowhere. Zhao Kai originally loved cooking and wanted to cook, but now that Huang Rong was by his side, he was naturally happy and free.
I saw Huang Rong cut open the belly of the rooster with a knife, washed and peeled the internal organs, but did not pluck out the hair. She wrapped the outside of the chicken with water and a ball of mud, lit a fire and roasted it. After roasting for a while, a sweet fragrance came out of the mud.
When the wet mud is completely dry, peel off the dry mud, and the chicken feathers will fall off with the mud. The chicken will be white and tender, with a strong aroma.
Zhao Kai took a look and saw that it was a beggar's chicken, and thought that he was really in luck.
Huang Rong was about to tear the chicken apart when someone behind her suddenly said: "Tear it into four parts and give me the chicken butt."
Zhao Kai and the three of them were all shocked. Someone was covering them from behind, but they were unaware of it. The three of them hurriedly turned around, only to see that the person speaking was a middle-aged beggar. This man had a rectangular face, a slight beard under his chin, thick hands and big feet, and
The clothes were patched here and there, but they were clean. He held a green bamboo stick in his hand, as bright as jade, and carried a big gourd of vermilion paint on his back. His face looked like he was salivating.
He looked anxious, as if if he didn't give him the chicken butt, he would reach out and snatch it away. It was none other than Northern Beggar Hong Qigong.
Zhao Kai and Huang Rong had not yet answered, but Mu Nianci shouted happily: "Senior, it's you."
The beggar turned to look at Mu Nianci and said with the same smile: "So it's you, a little girl. You've been living a good life lately. So I will definitely get a share of the chicken today."
Mu Nianci smiled and nodded.
It turns out that the Hongqi Highway passed by the residence of Mu Nianci and his daughter, and they ate Mu Nianci's food for three days and taught Mu Nianci martial arts for three days, and the two became friends.
Hong Qigong saw that there were still acquaintances there, so he was even more welcome. I saw him sitting opposite Zhao Kai and the others with a golden sword. He took the gourd on his back and pulled out the stopper. The aroma of wine overflowed for a while. He grunted
After a few sips, he handed the gourd to Zhao Kai and said, "Baby, drink it."
Zhao Kai was speechless. He reached out to take the gourd and drank a few sips of it, praising: "It is indeed a good wine."
At this time, Hong Qigong raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Kai again, and said with a smile: "You are not shy about your style, good boy, I like it." After saying that, he took a few more gulps.
Huang Rong saw that the beggar in front of her had only four fingers on her right hand holding the gourd, and one of her index fingers was missing. She felt a shiver in her heart. She had already guessed the identity of the beggar. When she saw the beggar looking at the fat chicken in his hand, his throat tightened.
Moving and swallowing, Huang Rong secretly laughed in her heart. She tore off half of the chicken and gave it to him with the chicken butt as expected.
Hong Qigong was overjoyed. He took the half of the chicken between his hands and ate it cleanly. While eating, he couldn't help but praise: "Wonderful, wonderful. Even my ancestor Hua couldn't manage such a great thing."
The beggar chicken.”
Huang Rong smiled slightly and handed him the remaining half of the chicken. Hong Qigong said deliberately: "How come? You two babies haven't eaten it yourself." He was polite, but he had already reached out to take it. In a moment,
There were only a few chicken bones left. He patted his belly and shouted: "Belly, belly, you rarely eat such delicious chicken, right?"
After hearing Hong Qigong's words, Zhao Kai and the three of them burst into laughter.
Huang Rong chuckled and said: "The little girl occasionally burns a beggar chicken and gets it into the belly of the beggar ancestor. It's a great honor."
Hong Qigong laughed loudly and said, "You are a very well-behaved little girl." He took out a few golden darts from his arms and said, "I saw a few people fighting yesterday, and one of them was very rich.
The dart was actually shining with gold. The old beggar took the dart and brought it over to him. The inside of this golden dart is made of scrap copper and iron, and the outside of the dart supports the scene, but it is plated with real gold. Baby, you can play with it.
, when you don’t have money to use it, you can exchange it for seven or eight pieces of silver." After saying that, he handed it to Zhao Kai.
Zhao Kai shook his head and said, "We treat you as a friend. Please treat your friend to something to eat. You cannot accept gifts."
Just kidding, this is a perfect opportunity to learn the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. How could these shabby Zhao Kai take a fancy to it?
