The happy atmosphere still continued. Although his own Marquis could not draw his bow, it still did not prevent him from receiving a lot of compliments from his subordinates. The flattery came in like a tide, which immediately made Xiao Han, who was originally a little embarrassed, smile...
At this time, the team quickly noticed that something was different.
Except for the peasants who helped drive the cart, everyone around Xiao Han in the first half was smiling. A few half-year-old boys were crawling around in the grass, a gentleman in a green shirt was shaking his head and reciting poems, and a few sturdy old men were... , I took a sip of the wine in my skin.
Several little girls would jump up from the carriage from time to time, pointing at small animals in the distance and shouting. At this time, there would always be a dark, sturdy young man shooting an arrow, even though the arrow was more than ten meters away from the rabbits. But the young man still looked proud. He was not showing off his archery skills, but simply demonstrating that he could draw this stiff bow...
Everything is like a picture of a trip, it seems so beautiful!
But the middle and end of the team were a completely different scene.
In the middle of the motorcade, there were about a dozen people, old and young. Although the clothes they were wearing were brand new, if you look closely, you could still see that they didn't fit well. Compared with the red face of the old man in the mansion, these people's faces were faintly... With the food, there was a carriage specially equipped for them next to them, but whenever Xiao Han in front couldn't help but jump off to play, they would always jump out of the car subconsciously and walk forward.
Xiao Han sometimes glances at them, but how can he change the habits he has developed with strict rules over the years with just a few words? After saying it twice, it had no effect, so Xiao Han just let it go. Anyway, there will be plenty of time in the future. Didn't the fool and the others look like this when they entered the house?
Near the end of the motorcade, there were family members accompanying them.
They only knew that the mainstay of their family was going to a new place, and they didn't know anything else. However, when they came yesterday, the new clothes and food distributed to each household gave them some peace of mind. This is their family's small fortune...
At noon, I simply stopped to eat some dry food and drank some water. Now the people of Xiao Mansion have three meals a day. Sufficient nutrition allows the fool and Xiao Lang to grow up as fast as blowing up balloons, and poor Xiao Han Except for growing a little taller, nothing has changed. Xiao Han is so angry that every time he sees the fool showing off in front of him, he always gives him a big kick!
As evening approached, Xiao Han's convoy began to set up camp. The straight-line distance from Chang'an to Sanyuan was only about a hundred miles. It didn't take an hour for a fast horse to arrive. However, Xiao Han had too many things to carry, and rushing could not be much faster than walking, so he left. After a day, we are still nearly a third of the way to Miyuan.
There are no villages around. In fact, if there is a village, Xiao Han doesn't plan to go in and camp! With the sky as the sky and the clouds as the quilt, you can also enjoy the bright moon of the Tang Dynasty. How poetic!
If these stinky men around us were replaced by beauties, it would be incredibly beautiful...
"Master Hou, Master Hou..." A distant voice broke Xiao Han's dream.
Xiao Han woke up with a start, stood up and wiped his saliva, and the newly promoted housekeeper bowed over to greet him. He was a relative of the fat chef, his surname was Lu, he was in his thirties, but he looked as if he was forty or fifty years old.
"Lu Xiucai...poof..."
"Master Marquis, please order..."
Butler Lu didn't know why Xiao Han was so narrow-minded every time he called him Lu Xiucai, but thinking about it, how could a person from the Tang Dynasty understand a drama like Wulin Gaiden?
Xiao Han looked at the old-looking Butler Lu, and it took him a long time to separate him from the young and cowardly Lu Xiucai in his mind. He suppressed his laughter and said seriously: "Butler Lu, don't be so polite in the future. How about our family?" Not so many rules, a little more relaxed..."
It seemed that this was not the first time that Butler Lu heard Xiao Han say this. After Xiao Han finished speaking, he immediately shook his head and said: "Master Marquis, you are approachable and courteous. This is a rare virtue for a nobleman, Master Marquis! But being a servant But you can't live without rules. It should be noted that if the steel is too strong, it will break, but if it is too soft, it will be unreliable! The prince's house should have the rules of the house, so as not to cause trouble and make others laugh. Since our house has just been built, it is even more important to set up rules. It is too lax. , it will be very bad for the future, but please relax, Mr. Hou, I will slowly correct it and will not make Mr. Hou feel uncomfortable."
"Okay, whatever you want..."
Xiao Han was speechless and rolled up his sleeves to watch the fat chef cooking.
The people of the Tang Dynasty were awesome. As long as they had their own reasons, they would dare to argue with them regardless of whether they were the master or the marquis. Xiao Han had already seen the fighting power of these people. If he couldn't afford to offend me, why should I hide?
The camp of the convoy was arranged by experienced veterans. It was backed by a water source and located on a slightly higher ground. The valuable goods were unloaded from the large trucks and piled in the center of the camp. The valuable goods and the large trucks were formed into a circle. The large semicircle became a peripheral barrier.
The animals that had been tired for a day began to drink water and eat under the care of the grooms, and people also began to cook in pots. The blue smoke shot straight into the sky, accompanied by the fragrance, which whetted people's appetite.
As soon as he walked to the fat chef, the fat chef opened the lid of the pot wisely and asked Mr. Hou to see the dinner. When he was out, the food was just cooked and could not be so detailed. Xiao Han lost interest after just one glance and turned his head. Walk towards the river next to it.
The water of the Tang Dynasty river was clear, and a few small fish were swimming in and out among the aquatic plants on the shore. There were no plastic bags, no pungent smell, and no foaming industrial wastewater, which made Xiao Han feel a little agitated. Not very adaptable...
As I was thinking about the past, I suddenly saw a big fish swimming out from the aquatic plants out of the corner of my eye. It was dark, weighed three or four kilograms, and was not afraid of people. It spit out a few bubbles leisurely, and then I swam into the dark water plants and saw Xiao Han on the shore, stunned...
I don’t know what kind of fish this is, but if Xiao Han sees it, how can he let it show off its power in front of him like this? Getting it up is a must! Xiao Han believed that even if it was pufferfish, he could cook it!
Thinking of the delicious grilled fish and the fresh fish soup, Xiao Han took a big gulp of saliva, turned around immediately, and tiptoed away from the shore until he felt that the fish was no longer surprising. The son came for him and called Lao Qiu, who was in a daze aside.
Several people bent their backs and followed Xiao Han like thieves. With their bows under their arms, they came to the river and hid behind a big stone...
Sure enough, after waiting for a while, another big fish slowly swam over, seemingly even bigger than the one before!
"Lao Qiu, slow down, the things in this water are different from what we see on the ground, aim in front of it!" Xiao Han stretched out a finger and quietly directed Lao Qiu to shoot with his bow.
Lao Qiu nodded, and the bow in his hand was like a full moon. As the big fish slowly moved forward, when the fish suddenly turned around in the water, Lao Qiu narrowed his eyes, and the arrow in his hand suddenly "swish" like a shooting star chasing the moon. Got into the water!
"Hit!" Xiao Han shouted excitedly, jumped onto the stone, and looked at the river eagerly.
The originally clear water turned turbid in an instant. This was because the big fish was hit by an arrow and stirred up all the mud and sand in the ground!
The big fish was tumbling in the water, spinning around several times with a long arrow, flicking its tail, and was about to rush downstream.
"No, it's going to run away..."
When Xiao Han saw it, he was so anxious that he took off his clothes and jumped out. How dare Xiaodong and the others dare to let Xiao Han go into the water?
Xiaodong stopped in front of Xiao Han and shouted: "Master Hou, I can swim, I will catch it, don't fall!"
After shouting, he took off his clothes in a few seconds and jumped into the water with a sudden movement, making a splash! Then...he didn't come up for a long time...
"You won't be dragged away by the water ghost, right? Uh, bah bah! How can there be a water ghost in this small river?!"
Xiao Han and the idiot Lao Qiu stared at the river anxiously, but the water in this small river did not seem to be very deep. In fact, it was so relaxing and joyful not to lose anyone. In addition, the black mud in the water was now rising. There is even less trace of Xiaodong!
"No, I have to go down and take a look!"
Xiao Han was so impatient that he was about to take off his clothes and go down. As soon as he kicked off his shoes, he was hugged tightly by the idiot: "Master Hou, you can't get off, I'm going to call someone right now!"
"Scream, Xiaodong will be cold when you call someone!"
Xiao Han was so anxious that he yelled and was about to kick the idiot out. Suddenly, a head appeared on the water, but Xiao Ran came out of the river again. At this time, he grabbed the arrow with one hand. , holding something unknown in the other hand, grinning and swimming towards the shore.
"Back, back!" Xiao Han, who was hugged by Lunzi, felt his heart suddenly relax. If Lunzi hadn't hugged him, he might not be able to stand now.
"Quick, Xiaodong, caught it!"
Lao Qiu on the side didn't know how to swim, so he could only stand by the river in a hurry and stretched out his bow with all his strength. Xiaodong in the water looked at Lao Qiu and waved his hand vigorously. A wild goose feather arrow and a big fish crossed in the air. The round arc hit the river bank. The big fish that was directly penetrated by the arrow was not dead yet. It jumped around on the bank and was covered with mud.
When the fool saw it, he quickly let go of Xiao Han, ran over, hugged the fish and threw it to the grass behind. Then he quickly ran back and together with Lao Qiu, pulled Xiaodong up from the river.
Before Xiaodong came up, he was screaming in the water with a painful expression, which made Xiao Han and others really think that a water ghost was dragging him. Until Lao Qiu and Lengzi lifted him up from the water, Xiao Dong Only then did Han see that there was a big tortoise biting Xiaodong's finger, and blood was dripping from it!
Xiao Han's eyes widened, and he pointed at the tortoise that was the size of a small pot lid and shouted: "Oh my god, tortoise, hurry up, don't let it run away!"
Xiaodong screamed: "I wanted it to run away, but it didn't run away!"
"Quick, quick, get the torch!" Xiao Han then remembered that the bastard bit people and refused to let go...
The fool quickly ran out, and in the blink of an eye, he ran back again holding a torch.
"Here, torch, whoosh..."
Xiao Han snatched the torch from the fool's hand and thrust it towards the tortoise's butt. The tortoise hanging on Xiaodong's hand felt pain and immediately let go.
It fell to the ground with a "click" sound. As soon as this guy landed on the ground, his four little claws immediately pulled out quickly and rushed towards the river! Look at that speed, it's definitely not much slower than a rabbit!
"Who said turtles run slow?" Xiao Han stared in surprise, never expecting that this thing could run so fast!
However, although this thing does run very fast, if it runs away in front of such a group of people, then these people might as well get into the river and become bastards...
The fat chef who came from a long distance happened to be in front of the tortoise. He raised his leg and stepped down on the lid of the flying tortoise. Then he lifted it up from the tail with great experience and happily moved towards Xiao Han. This is coming!
"Master Hou, Master Hou, you are a bastard!"
"Fart, you are the bastard!"
"...Bah, bah, bah, Lord Marquis, forgive me, I mean I caught the bastard..."
"Nonsense, I'm not blind!" Xiao Han came over and looked at this pure, green, pollution-free thing, and was filled with joy: "Go, stew it for me!"
"Stewed?" The fat chef was stunned for a moment, but he immediately came back to his senses: "Okay, Mr. Marquis, please wait!"
In fact, at that time, tortoises were considered auspicious animals, and especially those with status would not eat tortoises. Even if they were caught, they would be placed in the garden pond and given preferential treatment. However, in poor families, they could not control so much. When you're hungry, as long as you can eat, you can't escape the fate of being cooked!
