Seeing Jia Fei rushing back excitedly and handing him two yellow obovate sweet fruits, Cheng Yu took them with a smile.
In fact, just now he was outside the village, using the cat demon's magical eyesight, he could see everything one by one.
And he heard clearly the conversation between Jia Fei and the theater troupe.
He raised his hand and brought the fruit in front of his nose to smell it. Well, it still had that familiar fragrance.
"Yes, this is the mango I mentioned before."
he said with a smile.
When Jia Fei heard this, he slapped his forehead and said suddenly:
"Oh yes! I remembered it, Mango!
I only remember that you gave this fruit a slightly weird name. I was confused for a moment and didn’t remember it. Mango...mango...oh! It’s really hard to pronounce, and it’s not as pleasant as the name Xianggai.”
Cheng Yu laughed and said:
"It's better, I'll call you Mango, you'll call me Xianggai, and everyone can call it their own."
"This is just right. Now, how does this mango taste? Is it the same as what you said?"
As Jia Fei spoke, he unconsciously followed Cheng Yu's lead and changed the name of the fragrant lid to mango.
Cheng Yu heard this and picked up one, carefully peeled off the skin bit by bit, and took a bite from the side.
sweet!
And there is no stringy or astringent feeling.
Cheng Yu wanted to peel the mango further, but saw the mango skin peeling off on its own.
"hey-hey!"
Jia Fei chuckled and put away his demon power while watching Cheng Yu quickly finish a mango.
"By the way, you had a good time with the kids just now, why did you come back so excited?"
Cheng Yu asked Jia Fei while moving water to clean up the flowing mango juice.
Hearing this, Jia Fei scratched his head first, then took a step towards Cheng Yu and whispered:
"I still remember that Brother Cheng used magic to make ice-cold oranges by the Longxiang River. It is the best way to cool down in the hot summer. Why don't you lend me some at this time and take them back to the children in the theater troupe to cool down?"
Cheng Yu heard this and without saying a word, he immediately summoned a large ball of pure water out of thin air, and then called out You'er from his Yuan Shen, condensing the water into a large lump of ice slag.
Jia Fei got a large piece of the cleanest lotus leaf from somewhere, and Cheng Yu placed a thin ball of ice sand inside the lotus leaf.
Seeing the cat demon holding the lotus leaves and jumping happily about to turn around and go to the village, Cheng Yu suddenly remembered that he still remembered that before coming to the capital, he had told Jia Fei that he would make a world like this for him.
Eat like never before.
He sent the message over, and the cat demon who had just jumped out a short distance turned back:
"Yes, yes! If you didn't mention it, I would have almost forgotten that you once said that you would make me a mango or something... something with ice."
"Mango ice cream, just..."
"Just what?"
Seeing Jia Fei asking, Cheng Yu thought for a moment and continued:
"It's just that we already have mangoes, and ice is even better, but there's still one thing missing."
"What?"
"Um……"
Cheng Yu thought for a while and finally found a word that Jia Fei could understand to describe what was missing:
"Milk."
"Milk... This is a bit difficult to handle. The stomachs of Kyushu people have never been used to drinking milk, so ordinary people don't have this kind of thing.
Only the barbarians in Mobei drink it on weekdays...because their stomachs are rough and can withstand it. People from Kyushu have always suffered from gastrointestinal discomfort, vomiting and diarrhea after drinking it."
When Cheng Yu heard this, he suddenly realized that the world in this part of the world had no knowledge of disinfection and other technologies. Drinking milk would indeed cause stomach upset if you were not careful.
"Hey! Brother Cheng, this mango ice of yours must have come from Mobei, right?"
Seeing Jia Fei asking a question, Cheng Yu couldn't help but laugh out loud and asked back:
"Can Mobei produce mangoes?"
"That's right, um... If we must have milk, then I will search the courtyards of the richest households in the village."
The anxious Jia Fei was about to leave immediately after saying this, but was stopped by Cheng Yu again. He used his water technique, spread his consciousness, and scanned the entire Zhuangzi before shaking his head slightly.
Seeing Cheng Yu shaking his head, Jia Fei frowned and asked:
"No? Let me just say, how can it be so easy to find milk in the hinterland of Kyushu?"
After Cheng Yu said something to wait for a while, he used the water technique again, closed his eyes and spread his consciousness wider, and the waves of invisible soul power were enough to include several Zhuangzi nearby.
The cat demon was so angry that he didn't dare to breathe. He raised his head slightly and stared closely at Cheng Yu's expression. His sword eyebrows were wrinkled tighter and tighter. He thought it was difficult to find him.
Just when Jia Fei was about to give up hope, he saw Cheng Yu's brows suddenly relaxed, and then frowned more tightly, causing the cat demon nearby to also frown in the same way.
After a few breaths, Cheng Yu slowly opened his starry eyes and looked into the distance.
"What's wrong?"
The cat demon asked carefully, but when he saw Cheng Yu let out a breath, raised his hand and pointed in the direction he was looking at, he said:
"Right over there, I detected buttermilk."
"Buttermilk? Isn't that the food of the barbarians in Mobei? That thing can replace milk, but why is Brother Cheng frowning again?"
"Besides the buttermilk, there's blood all over the place."
…
"Got it! Got it! Got it!"
"What kind of nonsense is this? These barbarians from Mobei who have suffered from the plague have finally come to our capital, Daliang. If they don't bring back some gold cakes and silver ingots, what are they doing with these troublesome people?"
"Whoosh!"
The fields on both sides of the official road are covered with thatch and reeds as tall as a person. On the roadside, there are two horses with complete saddles and bridles, grazing leisurely with their heads down.
A little further away in the field, there is a place where the thatch has been flattened into an irregular circle. There are four people standing or sitting inside, and next to it lie two crooked corpses.
The dead body was dressed in ordinary clothing but was disheveled. It had obviously been searched.
There are feather arrows stuck diagonally on each neck, and the thatch beneath him has been dyed bright red.
Four people had already searched the dead body, and one of them was shaking a few books in his arms.
"Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much!"
The person next to me grabbed a fur bag and poured the milky white liquid inside into his mouth for two mouthfuls before spitting it out.
"I said this barbarian is really weird. How can he eat such a salty and sour thing?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Here! This is Barbarian's buttermilk. Although it tastes weird, it is a good nutritional supplement."
The man opposite was tall and strong, and while speaking in a silly voice, he stretched out his big hand and snatched the bag, raised his neck, opened his mouth, and poured it in.
"Haha! Well... I haven't drunk this cheese for a long time. Although it doesn't taste good, I really miss it."
"Brother, you must have been used to drinking this stuff when you were an infantry archer instructor in the Tiger Army, but our brothers have never tasted it and we can't stand it."
"If you're not used to it, just leave it to me. What's that thing you're cuddling about?"
The big man who was called brother asked, pointing to the man holding several volumes.
When the man asked, he hurriedly and respectfully presented the few volumes in his hand and said with a flattering smile:
"Brother, please invite me. We brothers are illiterate and I don't know what is written in this book. But then again, don't they all say that the Mobei barbarians are illiterate and no better than us? Why don't these two bastards bring us
Gold and silver, why do you want to take these books on the road? And you are still wearing our clothes, could you be a spy?"
"Idiot, if the barbarian is still wearing animal skins, can he travel to the hinterland of Gyeonggi Province? Bring it!"
The big man scolded a few words, reached out to take a few volumes, flipped through them briefly, rubbed his nose, and threw them aside:
"It's not my Kyushu script, and I can't understand it. I think it's a book read by Barbarian. Look through it again, and don't miss the gold and silver."
The big man pointed at the corpse on the ground and said.
"Brother, I have rummaged through everything. Apart from these two buttermilk skins and a few books, there are only a few taels of silver and two packages of dried meat."
"Take those two horses away together and find a horse market in a remote area. You can sell them for twenty or thirty taels of silver."
The four people stood up immediately, or bent over to examine the body, or went to lead the horses.
Among them, there was one who was the thinnest and was assigned as a sentry to visit Feng.
This man found a medium-sized willow tree on the side of the road, and jumped up to the crown of the tree with a few "squeezes", his movements were clean and quick.
But after going up there, I suddenly found that the cicadas who had been shouting all the time were completely silent, and my ears were rarely clear for a while.
He originally thought that he had surprised the cicada when he climbed up the tree, but he didn't pay attention to it, nor did he notice that on the edge of the woods dozens of feet away behind him, there were two people, white and green, standing side by side on a high branch, watching with cold eyes.
This way.
"A path-cutting thief?"
Jia Fei asked.
Cheng Yu nodded lightly.
"Dare to kill people and buy goods next to the official road, you are very cruel and ruthless."
Jia Fei was gearing up as he talked.
"The moon was dark and the wind was high, and the weather was hot and dry. The two Mobei barbarians who were killed probably took the night journey to avoid the scorching heat during the day. They just didn't want to fall into the trap of these thieves just after arriving in the Gyeonggi area."
"Are two barbarians dead?"
When Jia Fei heard the word barbarian, he immediately asked.
Just because the two of them were far apart, the cat demon's eyes could see it, but Cheng Yu'er couldn't hear it.
Seeing Cheng Yu nodded slightly, she stopped moving forward.
"If the robber is a barbarian, then..."
"Ta da! Ta da! Ta da..."
Before she finished speaking, Cheng Yu heard the sound of horse hooves again.
From what he could hear, there were about four horses in total, plus the sound of two people breathing.
At this time, Jia Fei was still talking to himself and did not hear any unusual noise.
Cheng Yu looked into the distance with the help of the cat's magic eyesight. A few miles away, there was an official road running across the front.
There was a cloud of smoke and dust on the official road, and there were two people dressed up in a short game. In addition to a strong horse on their hips, each of them also led another horse behind them, galloping on the official road.
The horse's hooves strike the ground vigorously, but the man on the horse is out of breath.
After Jia Fei finished speaking, he saw Cheng Yu staring in the other direction, so he followed suit.
"Ta da! Ta da..."
Seeing two people and four horses galloping all the way, they passed through a sparse forest and were only half a mile to the left of the group of thieves.
The one who was watching the wind slipped down from the tree and ran into the reeds.
"Brother! There's someone here again!"
"Are there? How many more?"
"Two! Across the wind!"
"Across the wind again? Hey! What day is it today? Keep catching up with good deals and stock up!"
The leading man shouted low, and several thieves squeezed out of the reeds and looked in the direction of the sound of horse hooves.
"Ta da! Ta da..."
The distance between the two and the four horses was now closer, and the thieves in the dark could already clearly see each other's figures. They saw that each of them was carrying a small apricot-yellow flag behind his back, fluttering in the wind.
"Eh? That's not right, brother, it's an eagle's claw!"
A small man next to the big man reminded him quietly.
"Eagle talons? Bah! So what about the eagle talons? I have chopped them all into pieces, and there are still two eagle talons missing!"
After the leading man finished cursing, he stretched out his big hand and picked up a large bow almost as tall as a man from the ground. He also pulled out a feather arrow from the necks of the two corpses. Drops of blood followed the tapered black iron arrows.
Falling.
"Crunch!"
The leading man drew a big bow, aimed diagonally upward at the direction of the incoming person, and lowered the bow little by little as the distance between the two parties continued to shorten.
"Just now, I shot two arrows through my throat at a hundred paces. You guys, you slutty people, are still not satisfied with it. Today, I will let you have your fill!"
"Whoosh!"
As soon as the big man finished speaking, the arrow drew a parabola in the night sky.
"puff!"
The arrow struck accurately and hard, flying nearly a hundred steps away in the blink of an eye, and actually pierced the neck of the man on the first horse.
"Hey!"
The tall horse was suddenly frightened, stood upright and neighed loudly.
The man who was hit by the arrow didn't even have time to say "Ah!", so he threw his head back and fell off the horse. He covered his neck with his hands and kicked the ground desperately, unable to survive.
The man following him reacted quickly and hurriedly reined in the reins. He heard another sound of breaking through the air. His eyes blurred. He subconsciously tilted his head to avoid the fatal blow, but still "Pfft!"
There was a loud sound and it pierced into the shoulder socket, and blood started to flow immediately.
The man quickly turned over and dismounted, quickly took out a broken blade, and endured the pain to cut off the long arrow shaft on his shoulder.
Then he took the arrowhead and the remaining half of the arrow shaft, rolled to the corpse in front of him, lay down on the ground, and unpacked the corpse, while always raising his head to be on guard in case there were more arrows coming later.
After untying the baggage, he carried the baggage with his waist and got into the reeds on the roadside.
Throughout the whole process, this man was agile, calm and orderly. After being injured, he kept silent and was so forbearing that even Cheng Yu couldn't help but turn slightly sideways and turn his head to stare.
Just because it was the first time for him to see Baibu piercing his throat with his own eyes, he was also secretly frightened.
Especially looking at the distance between the two sides, and the fact that one of them was riding on a galloping horse, Cheng Yu originally thought that the big man would not be able to shoot the opponent, or would not be able to hurt the opponent's vital points, but he never expected that there was a real marksman, but in Baidu.
At a distance of one step, he hit the target with one blow.
"Hey! Brother is very skilled. Within a hundred steps tonight, four arrows hit four, without fail!"
Several thieves were shouting. They were too far away to see clearly. They all thought that the leader of the big man had killed everyone on the opposite side with two arrows, so a lot of flattery came one after another.
The leading man was so dizzy from being slapped that he handed the bow to the person closest to him, then took the single sword handed by him and strode forward.
At this time, the man with the arrow in his shoulder had hid in the grass on the roadside, and Cheng Yu couldn't see clearly even with the help of Jia Fei's magical vision.
It can only be vaguely seen that in the reed bushes that are as tall as a person, there are three soul fires that are decaying all the way.
