Chapter 40 Infighting (1)

Others continued to talk about the Chen family.

"I heard that Mr. Chen's Cangmang Sword was given to his granddaughter Chen Wan. It seems that the Chen family wants to put their future and destiny on her."

"If Mr. Chen really gets rid of the Tianxing warrior, then the Chen family will not only save face, but also become stronger." Li Xiaoman put down the wine glass in his hand.

"That's not necessarily the case." Mr. Liu said.

Everyone looked at him and asked why.

Master Liu finished chewing the food in his mouth, took another sip of wine, and then said slowly: "Zhao Wuji, the eldest son of the Zhao family, has returned. He has been studying abroad for two or three years. It is said that he is good at bow and arrow. His

The master gave him a famous bow in the world, 'Chuanyang'; I also heard that he also possesses the Eagle Eye Technique. According to reliable information, he has begun to prepare to hunt down the Tianxing warriors, nominally to help the Chen family.

, but who of us knows his true thoughts, and this time he witnessed the decline of the Chen family with his own eyes. In addition, the Zhao family is ranked second in Qingzhou Prefecture, and in some places it is even more powerful than the Chen family.

strength.

"It seems that we should find my aunt quickly." Li Xiaoman thought.

After the banquet, Li Xiaoman asked his servants to clean up and walked into the study. He also told Wang Wu that no one should enter the study without his order.

He is still worried about his aunt Xu Jia. If Old Man Chen really finds his aunt, he will be in big trouble.

Wang Wu originally wanted to ask what happened to the young master, but he still did not ask. He just felt that the young master had undergone tremendous changes. Two days ago, he was just a person who was called an abandoned young man by outsiders, but with his great strength

Defeated the Chen family army and became the strongest abandoned young man.

When it comes to changing fortunes, it is a truth that a tiger father has no dog son.

Wang Wu felt that he was really lucky. If he was still following Chen Qing who was kept in the dark, he really didn't know what to do at this time. He suddenly felt that this kid was a bit pitiful.

This is not the first time that his aunt Xu Jia has caused trouble. Li Xiaoman feels that after his aunt has left safely, he should come to him, but he has not seen her yet. Will something happen? This is what Li Xiaoman is most worried about.

.If my aunt wants to leave the confines of Qingcheng Town, it will be even more dangerous, because the Chen family has already set up obstacles at various major intersections, and there are many human star warriors waiting for each obstacle. The best way for my aunt is to find someone.

A safe place to rest and recuperate. There are currently only two safest places, one is Jianhe Villa and the other is Qingcheng Mountain.

However, in Li Xiaoman's eyes, Jianhe Villa is the best place for her aunt to rest.

That's because there are still many uncertainties about Qingcheng Mountain.

It is said that there are magical beasts living in the deep mountains. Magical beasts are no better than ordinary birds and beasts. They are the pets of the demons. Because they are with the demons all the time, they are also stained with a lot of magic. Some of them absorb the spiritual energy of the world.

, some will also absorb the true energy of monks, especially the Heavenly Star Warriors, and possess powerful magic, sometimes even more powerful than the Sixth Level of True Qi Human Star Warriors. Some monsters can also cultivate human bodies and become the servant stars of the demon clan.

It is comparable to human star warriors at level 8 of Qi, which is why many junior warriors are unwilling to go deeper into Qingcheng Mountain.

Li Xiaoman felt bored, so he picked up a book and read. After about a long time, Xiao Taohong knocked on the door and asked if she wanted tea and midnight snacks. Li Xiaoman said, come in.

After Xiao Taohong put away her things, she left.

Li Xiaoman looked at the pastry in front of him and thought it looked very good. He took a piece and ate it, and immediately felt refreshed.

The Sui, Tang and Five Dynasties had a rich variety of pasta, and there were many varieties of cakes alone. There were boiled cakes, steamed cakes (also known as Longshanglao Wan), soup cakes (also known as Tangzhonglao Wan), scorpion cakes, Ahante cakes, and Fandang cakes.

Pancakes, sesame pancakes, double-mixed square pancakes, spring pancakes, five-color pancakes with 荍 characters, Wufu pancakes, ball pancakes, etc. Among them, spring pancakes are round pancakes that are steamed or baked with wheat flour wrapped in vegetables and meat.

It is a custom in the Sui and Tang Dynasties to eat spring pancakes on the first day of spring. Volume 5 of "Yue Ling Guangyi" says: "People in the Tang Dynasty ate spring pancakes with lettuce on the first day of spring. They also used thin pots of vegetables and meat wrapped in them." The preparation method of "Five Color Pancakes" with the character "荍"

It is a "carved wooden lotus, made by pressing lotus roots and animal shapes". The cake is printed with beautiful patterns, which is the same as the method of using molds to make snacks today. "Five Fortune Cake" is also a cake similar to snacks. There are five kinds of cakes in it.

A variety of different fillings, which reflects the high level of cake-making at that time. This type of pastry is today's biscuits and other foods.

There are many varieties of pastry foods developed from the making of cakes since the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Such as: Su (cheese), Douji (bean paste), Zanru (rice cake), Xian (糍团), Xun (thin sugar), cake cake

(cakes stuffed with cheese), etc. In addition, there were many varieties of noodles and dough foods in the Sui and Tang Dynasties: such as: cold pottery (cold noodles over water), soup cakes (soup noodles), mutton noodles, chicken soup noodles, vegetarian noodles

wait.

Today's soup noodles have been popular as early as the Tang Dynasty, and stuffed cakes such as moon cakes were also modified from the original cakes.

"It smells so good!" A voice came from the window, echoing loudly in the silent room.

Li Xiaoman raised his head and saw a figure floating in from the window.

Although Li Xiaoman already knew who the visitor was, the sudden appearance still startled him, but before he could shout out, the other party burst into laughter.

This laughter is all too familiar.

"My eldest nephew, why don't you call me aunt when you have delicious food?"

Xu Jia walked out of the shadows in the corner. With her beautiful face and noble temperament, she was Xu Jia, the star warrior who was being hunted throughout the city.

"Auntie, where have you been? I've been waiting for you for a long time." Li Xiaoman said excitedly.

Xu Jia walked to the coffee table, picked up a few pieces of pastry, stuffed it into her mouth and ate it. She didn't look like a girl at all. She lost all her ladylike demeanor. She swallowed the whole piece of pastry in one gulp and uttered:

"Oh my God, I'm starving to death. It's so delicious!"

"..."

"Is there any more? My eldest nephew?" Xu Jia asked, looking at the empty plate.

"Yes... yes." Li Xiaoman quickly went out and asked Xiao Taohong to bring some more plates of cakes.

Xiao Taohong felt puzzled: The young master usually doesn't eat that much, what happened today? How many plates of cakes did he need?"

But Xiao Taohong didn't dare to ask any more questions, so she had to go down and serve it.

Xu Jia ate the pastries that were brought later, and drank a sip of water after every bite.

Looking at Xu Jia's devouring appearance, Li Xiaoman became worried. Isn't it just a pastry? Why did he eat it in such a hurry?

Pick up a piece and eat it yourself.

The two of them gathered around the coffee table and ate the delicious pastries.

"It's a pity that there is no wine for such delicious food." After Xu Jia finished eating a piece of pastry, he glanced at Li Xiaoman with unfinished thoughts.

"I said, aunt, you are injured now, why should you drink?" Li Xiaoman asked.

"My eldest nephew, you don't understand this, don't you?" Xu Jia said disdainfully, "My injury will heal quickly if I have wine!"

"Okay, aunt, I really admire you." After Li Xiaoman finished speaking, he stood up and ordered Xiao Taohong to get the wine. Now Xiao Taohong couldn't bear it anymore and asked: "Master, what's wrong with your injury?"

What happened?"

"It's okay, hurry up and get the wine."

After drinking and eating, Xu Jia did not intend to explain his injury, so he walked to a training chair and sat down cross-legged, holding his breath and practicing.

Since his aunt didn't want to explain, Li Xiaoman didn't want to ask, so he went aside and continued to study the "Weapons Manual".

Gradually, Li Xiaoman fell asleep unconsciously.

I don’t know how long it took, but Li Xiaoman woke up and opened his eyes to find that his aunt was still practicing.

In fact, with my aunt's "Sky Profound Sword Power", not many Tianxing warriors can defeat her.

To sum up, my aunt must have been besieged by a group of Tianxing warriors, or she was attacked by someone whose skill was much higher than hers.

At this time, Xu Jia was immersed in the state of recovering her skills. Her breasts wrapped in white plain clothes had a deep groove that looked very sexy. The sides were plump and fair. People couldn't help but want to peel off the clothes and take a look at the plumpness.

after all.

"Have you seen enough?"

Women are naturally very sensitive to breasts, especially the very large ones, and no one can escape their awareness at any glance.

Xu Jia slowly opened her eyes.

"Aunt, I..." Li Xiaoman was about to defend, but was stopped by Xu Jia.

"Aunt, are you injured?" His eyes quickly moved to a wound on Xu Jia's hand.

"It's okay, it's just a minor injury." Xu Jia replied.

"Auntie, you'd better rest quickly. It's very safe here. I will send someone to keep watch all night." Li Xiaoman said.

"Alas." Xu Jia sighed, "I'm sorry to bother you, nephew."

"What did my aunt say? If my family doesn't help, who will I help?"

At this time, Zhao Mansion.

Zhao Wuji was meeting with Shen Lang, the eldest son of the Shen family, in the study.

"Brother Lang, it's so late, what's wrong?" Zhao Wuji asked.

"My father is going to Jianhe Villa tonight." Shen Lang replied.

"Oh." Zhao Wuji was not surprised. At this time, when the Chen family lost power, everyone would look for a stronger backer. This is: when water flows down, people move up.

"Brother, why don't you ask me?" Shen Lang was a little surprised when faced with Zhao Wuji's super calmness.

"As the saying goes: Water flows to lower places and people move to higher places. This is a normal thing." Zhao Wuji replied.

"Huh." Shen Lang snorted.

"Brother Shen seems to have a sense of injustice?"

"What's wrong with me?" Shen Lang suddenly laughed, "I think it's you, Brother Zhao, who is worried."

"Oh? What can I have on my mind?" Zhao Wuji asked pretending to be surprised.

"You're still pretending, brother Zhao, you!" Shen Lang didn't answer.

"Brother Shen, why don't you come and listen?"

"You really want me to say that? Are you not angry?"

"But it doesn't matter."

"Everyone in Qingzhou Prefecture knows that among so many aristocratic families, the Chen family has always been in the first place. Then it was your Zhao family's turn. Now that the Chen family has lost power, it is your Zhao family who should be in the first place. So.

..."Shen Lang is still trying to be mysterious.

"So what?"

"Brother Zhao, are you still standing still?" (To be continued)
