Liu Hanyan made the bed, Long Chen put away the things, and the minions knocked on the door outside.
"Hero, the master invites you to come down for dinner."
It gets dark very early here, it's already completely dark outside, and it's time for dinner.
Liu Hanyan said: "Brother, we still have dry food."
She didn't want to eat food from bandits because she was always worried that something would go wrong.
Long Chen said with a smile: "It's okay, let's go down and have a look. It's my first time to come to the bandit's stronghold, so I want to see the excitement."
Long Chen took Liu Hanyan to the lobby on the first floor. Clay stoves were placed in the middle, burning blazing charcoal fires, and some burned firewood directly.
Several deer were disemboweled and a large pot of deer blood was poured into them.
Drinks were placed on the floor, and a group of people scooped them out with bowls, making loud fist-pumping noises.
In this vast snowfield, it is rare to see such a lively dining scene.
When Long Chen came down, Xiong Xiongzi and a group of brothers immediately came to greet him.
"My hero, we have killed a few deer specially for you. Please take a seat."
Long Chen sat at the front, Liu Hanyan took the second seat, accompanied by Blind Bear, and Black Donkey was roasting venison diligently.
"This is an antlered deer unique to the snowfield. The meat is fresh and tender, and it will warm your body after eating it."
Blind Xiong said with a smile.
Long Chen looked at the little minions below and felt a little strange.
Bandits should be aggressive, but this group of people doesn't have much aggression, and they look strange.
"Are these people recruited by you?"
Blind Xiong immediately laughed and said, "Others say we are mountain bandits, but in fact we are mountain households here."
Liu Hanyan didn't understand what Shanhu was, so she asked: "What is Shanhu?"
Blind Xiong immediately replied: "They are people who hunt from the mountains, transport them back to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and sell them, and make a living from this."
Liu Hanyan asked strangely: "Don't you make a living by robbing? Do you still hunt? Doesn't that make you a hunter?"
Blind Xiong smiled helplessly and said: "Xia Xia, you have also seen that, where do people usually come to this place? We really rely on robbery, and we have starved to death long ago."
"We hunt here in the winter and put the animal skins here to dry; in the summer we go to the beach to fish and sell dried fish and fish oil."
"Some of the brothers in the village are barbarians, some are from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and some are from Nanliang and Xixia. Some of them came across the sea from Fuluo Kingdom."
"Anyway, they are all people who have no property in their hometown and come to this vast sea of snow to make a living."
To put it this way, they are all pitiful people.
Liu Hanyan asked in confusion: "Then why did you become bandits?"
Blind Xiong kicked Hei Donkey in the face and cursed: "It's not because they think that you, the hero, are rich, and that the heroine is beautiful, have their own evil ideas."
"As for the Snow Mountain Sect, they are like the government here. They want to tax us, but we are unwilling to pay, so we have become bandits."
"Just like what happened this time, when we were hunting, we encountered two groups of people fighting to the death and picked up two Holy Blood Tokens."
"We know they want this thing, and we wanted to use it to deduct taxes, so as not to call us bandits and chase us all the time."
"Who knew that the Snow Mountain Sect was so shameless that they wanted the Holy Blood Order and money. Of course we refused, so we started fighting."
"Our cultivation level is low. Fortunately, you take action, otherwise we will be killed by Leng Wuwu."
Long Chen finally understood.
"When was your right hand injured?"
Long Chen saw that Xiong Xiong's right hand was trembling slightly.
Blind Bear said in surprise: "You can see this? It was scratched by a bear. For several years, they called me Blind Bear. That's why."
Long Chen said: "Take off your coat, Yanzi, and go get my golden needle."
Liu Hanyan knew that Long Chen was going to give Xiong Xiazi acupuncture, so she immediately went back to her room to get her things.
Blind Xiong took off his coat, Long Chen pinched it, and the golden needle penetrated the acupuncture point. Blind Xiong was so painful that he broke into a cold sweat.
"Swallow it!"
Long Chen took a pill, and Xiong Xiongzi swallowed it in one gulp without hesitation.
The golden needle was pulled out, Xiong Xiong moved his arm, and it was cured.
"The hero has great medical skills!"
Blind Xiong exclaimed.
The black donkey squatting on the ground and grilling meat said: "Master, my left leg and knee have been hurting, can you help me take a look?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "Do you want to take off your pants?"
Hei Lu glanced at Liu Hanyan and said awkwardly: "Isn't this appropriate?"
Liu Hanyan stood up to avoid it, and Long Chen asked Hei Donkey to take off his pants. Hei Donkey's knees were black and swollen, and it looked like he had been injured for a long time.
Long Chen gave him a needle to bleed, and applied some medicine.
At this time, many people in the village came running over.
These people have been here for a long time and have no doctors to treat their illnesses. They use herbal medicine based on their own experience. Many of them are sick.
Long Chen was busy for a long time before finishing the acupuncture.
"Call Yanzi down to eat."
Long Chen took the golden needle and the minion immediately went to call for help.
Liu Hanyan came down and asked, "Is everything okay?"
Blind Xiong bowed gratefully: "Thank you so much, hero, you are truly our benefactor."
Long Chen smiled and said: "Don't call me a hero or a hero, call me Xu Zhi."
Blind Xiong chuckled and said, "Brother Xu, try this venison, it's very delicious."
Long Chen picked up two skewers of venison and tasted them. They tasted really good.
"Nvxia, you should try it too."
Liu Hanyan ate two skewers and nodded: "It's delicious."
The black donkey smiled and said: "We don't know anything else but barbecue."
Blind Xiong poured another bowl of deer blood for Long Chen and said, "It's cold here. Drink the deer blood to warm yourself up."
Long Chen glanced at the deer blood hesitantly and thought to himself: This deer blood won't explode if you drink it.
Seeing Long Chen's hesitation, Xiong Xiongzi thought that Long Chen suspected that deer blood was poisonous, so he immediately drank a bowl of it himself.
"Brother Xu still can't trust me."
Blind Xiong smiled awkwardly.
Long Chen smiled and said: "That's not what I meant."
Black Donkey immediately poured a bowl. Long Chen had no choice but to drink it. He just couldn't believe it.
But if you drink, tonight
After receiving the deer blood, Long Chen drank it all in one gulp.
"That's right!"
Blind Xiong was very happy and stood up and shouted: "Come on, brothers, give me a bowl of it!"
The people below raised their glasses and toasted together. Long Chen didn't want to drink the sour wine, so he substituted deer blood for the wine and drank another bowl.
After a lively dinner in the evening, Long Chen asked them to boil two buckets of hot water.
Long Chen took a good bath, and Liu Hanyan also took a comfortable bath.
After Liu Hanyan finished washing, Long Chen entered the room and Liu Hanyan lay down.
Long Chen was slightly surprised that Liu Hanyan did not separate the quilts, and the two quilts were covered together.
Liu Hanyan lay with her head in, and Long Chen took off his coat and lay down.
After blowing out the lamp, Long Chen slowly closed his eyes
The deer blood started to take effect, and Long Chen couldn't sleep no matter what.
No matter how much I chant sutras in my mind, my body just can't calm down.
You idiot, you can't drink something as hot as deer blood, so you drank two bowls of it.
Long Chen felt like he was going crazy.
Liu Hanyan's body fragrance was particularly clear. Long Chen could hear Liu Hanyan's slight breathing, and the alluring body temperature came through. Long Chen's hand slowly stretched out.
The smooth silk pajamas felt good to the touch, and the skin under the clothes was even softer. Long Chen took a deep breath of air-conditioning, trying to make a final struggle to calm down.
But it was too restless after all.
"Junior sister, I'm sorry!"
Long Chen turned around and hugged Liu Hanyan.
In fact, Liu Hanyan hadn't slept the whole time. He had been waiting for Long Chen to hold him to sleep like he did last night.
After waiting for a long time, Long Chen still didn't make a move.
Liu Hanyan felt very disappointed and kept thinking wildly in her heart: He didn't hug me last night just because it was too cold. He really didn't have any feelings for me. It was my own fault. I shouldn't sleep with him anymore. It was so embarrassing.
How will I meet people in the future?
Just when Liu Hanyan was thinking wildly, Long Chen suddenly turned around and hugged her tightly.
Liu Hanyan was overjoyed, but she immediately realized something was wrong. Long Chen was too violent.
