15. Secret
Wang Qilin and Xu Da left. Zhang Yuning looked at his grandfather suspiciously: "Just now, Master Xu hugged Master Wang and called him a dead ghost?"
Doctor Zhang said solemnly: "Sit quietly and meditate on your own mistakes. Don't criticize others when you talk. Don't talk too much about the affairs of the two adults. Many years from now, this may become a good story in our court."
Zhang Yuning wanted to say something else, but a man sneaked up and waved to him: "Master Ning, last night..."
Doctor Zhang looked over and Zhang Yuning said first, "You are so stupid and bold, he came to get medicine again."
Hearing this, the old man frowned: "Let him take it easy, don't take too many tonics! It's strange, what is he doing as a single man taking so many tonics?"
After saying that, he turned back, stood at the door and continued to watch the two people's retreating figures, vaguely seeing that summer...
There was once a young man who was not ashamed,
There was a young man who knew no sorrow.
Later, the boy was always shy,
From now on, the young man will never forget his sorrow.
The land area of Fulong Township is not large. There are several shops built around the two main streets that intersect the east-west and north-south streets. Juxianglou is the largest one.
The restaurant is a two-story building. After entering, Xu Dali tightened his belt in a decent manner.
He knew that Wang Qilin was born in poverty and had never been in a restaurant, so he wanted to show off in front of him.
As a result, Wang Qilin looked disappointed when he entered the restaurant: "I heard about the Juxiang Building in Fulong Township when I was at home. I thought it was very luxurious, but it turned out to be nothing more than that."
Xu Da, who was about to pretend to compete, felt that his tone was wrong and asked: "How luxurious do you think it is?"
Wang Qilin pointed to the roof and said: "At least there is a two-foot-diameter glass lamp hanging here, and there are pictures of dishes drawn by famous painters on the wall. There are two beautiful girls standing at the door. When someone comes in, they say 'Welcome', and when someone goes out
Just say 'Thank you for your patronage'. These two girls are wearing tight silk skirts with slits to the top of their thighs..."
"Where is this place you are talking about? I have no other intention, I just want to see the pictures painted by famous teachers." Xu Da yearned for it.
"dreaming."
The shopkeeper put down his account book and came out to entertain the two of them in person. Xu Dadao said: "Old rules, four methods of pig's trotters, dry steamed pork, sweet and sour big carp, and tortoise soup."
"Give me a big pig's trotter, and a big carp - forget it, I'll pick it myself."
There is a Fulong River outside Fulong Township. It is said that a carp practiced Taoism in this river, flowed eastward into the sea, jumped over the dragon gate and turned into a dragon. The name of the river and the township came from this.
No one takes this rural rumor seriously, but the Fulong River is indeed rich in golden-scaled carps and they are big and fat.
Juxianglou raises live fish. There are two pools in the backyard. One pool raises golden-scale carp, and the other pool raises grass carp, crucian carp, silver carp and other miscellaneous fish.
Several people went to the backyard and took a quick look at a fish jumping in the fish pond. It jumped out of the water and was about to jump into the carp pond.
Seeing this, Wang Qilin exclaimed: "This fish is really ambitious. Princes, generals and ministers, would you rather have the talent?"
"Who said that only carp can live in carp ponds?" Xu Dadao said: "For ten years in the east of the river and ten years in the west of the river, don't bully young people into poverty. Today it is my grass carp's turn to live in the carp pond!"
The ripples rippled, and the grass carp flicked its tail and finally jumped over the shackles of fate and jumped into the carp pond.
Xu Da pointed at it and said: "The grass carp turned into a carp, which is a good sign. Let me make it together with the biggest carp."
There was a turmoil in the carp pond. As the grass carp jumped in, more than a dozen large carp were swimming desperately in the pond and rushing towards the surface of the water, making the pond muddy.
The waiter was stunned but couldn't catch the grass carp. Xu Da took the net bag and started to do it himself. After a while of confusion at the edge of the pool, he finally succeeded.
This grass carp was alive and kicking in the pool, as graceful as a swimming dragon, but when it entered the net bag, it stopped moving. Its whole body was stiff and it looked dead.
Xu Da was very disappointed: "It's really unlucky."
He threw the grass carp back into the pool, and the grass carp floated hard on the water.
But Wang Qilin's eyes were sharp and he saw the grass carp's pelvic fins paddling slowly. It was clearly floating on the water by quietly paddling!
Backstroke grass carp?
There's something wrong with this fish!
He said to the waiter: "Please help me find an urn to put this fish in. I can use it."
Next, he carried the water urn, and Xu Da carried the wine urn and went up to the second floor.
The shopkeeper arranged the largest private room for them. There was a large round table with sixteen Taishi chairs. The east and west walls were covered with calligraphy and paintings. There were plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums in the south window. This was definitely VIP treatment.
Xu Da wondered: "What are you doing with a dead fish? Grass carp?"
Wang Qilin didn't answer and asked instead: "Why did you just say that my life is at stake?"
Speaking of this, Xu Da opened the wine jar and poured a bowl of wine first. His brows furrowed together, with a bitter look on his face: "Earlier, Shi Da sealed you as a small seal. I said you were incompetent because of your junior qualifications. Do you think that
I hate your promotion so quickly?"
"Is not it?"
"That's bullshit!" Xu Da poured another bowl of wine, "The Fulong Township Xiaoyin is a talisman. This official position is cursed. Every year in the middle of July, the ghost gate opens, and then Xiaoyin will be killed by evil spirits!"
"Is there anything else?"
Xu Da groaned: "If you don't believe me, ask the shopkeeper if the little seal in Fulong Township before Mr. Cao will be replaced by another person in July and a half?"
After a while there was a knock on the door, and the waiter opened the door and came to serve the food.
The first dish was a tofu soup. The waiter put down the soup basin and sang: "Drink the soup first before eating. There is no need to ask for a prescription. You two adults will try my Wang Taishou Babao Tofu first."
In the soup basin is finely chopped soft tofu. The snow-white tofu is as smooth as fat. It is mixed with mushrooms, melon seeds, pine nuts, diced ham and other side dishes. The soup is turbid and white like soy milk, steaming, and has a delicious taste of chicken soup hitting your nose.
Drill inside.
Wang Qilin said: "Wait a minute, do we have some of this dish?"
Xu Da said: "Yes, Bastard Soup."
"Where's the bastard?"
"Wang Taishou Babao Tofu, also known as Wangba for short."
Wang Qilin smiled bitterly and said: "Okay, second brother, I want to ask you a few words..."
"You're welcome, sir. Are you asking about this dish? Hey, sir, listen to me carefully. My eight-treasure tofu is extraordinary. The eight-treasures in it are double meat, double vegetarian, and double dried fruits. This is nothing unusual.
, the best thing is a pot of chicken soup..."
Seeing the waiter's triumphant speech, Wang Qilin shook his head and said, "I'm asking you how many small seals have been changed in Fulong Township in the past ten years?"
The waiter was startled and said, "I can't remember clearly. It seems like it changes every year?"
Xu Da gave him a "I'll tell you what" look, and quickly dug out a bowl of tofu soup and ate it.
Hiss.
Tsk tsk.
hey-hey.
After the waiter left, Wang Qilin asked: "Why don't the superiors remove Xiaoyin's seat in Fulong Township?"
Xu Da sneered: "Who told you that it was not withdrawn? In the year when it was withdrawn, no small seal died, but the big seal above it died! This Jixiang County has to have a big seal, right? The next big seal that took office was
Shi Zhoushan, the first thing he did after taking office was to reassign a small seal to take charge of Fulong Township!"
Wang Qilin asked again: "But Mr. Cao is okay, right? You have seen my ability. I can deal with the infant spirit that Mr. Cao cannot deal with. Then Mr. Cao can suppress the evil ghost..."
"First, who told you that Master Cao was like this now? Second, who told you that Master Cao suppressed the evil ghost?" Xu Da interrupted him, "Have you never seen Master Cao just come to ambush?
The method used in Longxiang, when he had two fierce gods on his back!"
"But after July and a half last year, there was only one evil spirit left on his back, and another evil spirit saved his life. The evil spirit did not return empty-handed, it was just deceived!"
At this point, Xu Da scratched his head in confusion: "There's another thing I can't figure out. Master Cao's fierce spirit is so powerful, how come it can't do anything to a few infant spirits? This thing is weird, and it may not be related to the curse."
Wang Qilin asked again: "Then what's going on with this curse?"
Xu Da slurped the mellow chicken soup and said: "I don't know what happened specifically. I only know that Xiaoyin from Fulong Township once handled a big injustice case. The ghost of the injustice turned into an evil spirit and came back every year to take revenge. Hey, it's been so long.
Why haven’t you brought me my favorite sweet and sour carp?”
He opened the door and cursed a few words, and the waiter hurriedly brought over a plate of sweet and sour fish.
Xu Da became angry when he saw it: "This is not the fish I caught, it looks wrong!"
Wang Qilin looked carefully at the fish's face and saw nothing.
But the waiter took the initiative to apologize: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
"Where is the fish I ordered? Was it robbed by some big dog?" Xu Da shouted angrily.
Chapter completed!
