Dakui wandered around the city, asking more than ten people, but all shook their heads and said they didn't know. Dakui couldn't help but feel a little angry. A group of soldiers patrolling the city came face to face, and Dakui gritted his teeth and faced them.
If the Yuan soldiers in Luzhou were really enthusiastic, the team leader who led the team immediately said when he saw Dakui: "Begging for food, get out of here!"
Da Kui didn't take it seriously when he heard the words, and still stood in the middle of the road without evading. The team leader walked closer and waved to stop the team. He couldn't help but look Da Kui up and down. He saw Da Kui's hair was like tangled grass, his clothes were shabby, and his feet were bare.
Wearing a pair of straw sandals, he looked like a beggar. But Dakui's aura was not ordinary. He put his hands on his hips and looked up at the sky.
Seeing Da Kui's momentum, the captain of the Yuan soldiers couldn't help but nodded and said: "Well, maybe he is a lunatic who took the wrong medicine. Come on, beat him away with me with sticks!" As soon as the captain finished speaking, more than ten Yuan soldiers behind him
He received the order and surrounded him. Without waiting for them to take action, Dakui immediately raised his leg and gave the corps commander a side kick. Before the corps commander could react, the hat on his head had been kicked off.
Two soldiers came to attack with spears. Da Kui turned around and dodged the spears, and hit the two Yuan soldiers on the chests with both fists. The two Yuan soldiers fell down as if they were hit by a giant hammer.
When the corps commander saw that someone dared to embarrass the soldiers in broad daylight, he couldn't help but became furious. He drew his sword and slashed at Da Kui's back.
Although Dakui turned his back to the corps leader, he was facing the shadow of his face. In other words, Dakui was facing his own shadow. When the corps commander attacked, his shadow was already seen by Da Kui. Da Kui took a step forward and suddenly stepped forward.
He hit him backwards, but he just managed to dodge the captain's waist knife and crash into his arms. Dakui grabbed the captain's right arm holding the knife with both hands, bent down and twisted his body, and gave him a "over-the-back throw".
There was a muffled sound, and the captain of the Yuan soldiers was thrown to the ground. Da Kui snatched his long knife and put it on the captain's neck: "Don't move, uncle, I'm in a bad mood today, don't force it."
I'm going to kill you!"
The Wu Commander shouted repeatedly: "Don't move!" More than ten Yuan soldiers around him were waiting to step forward, but when they heard this, they all stopped in their tracks.
Then Dakui said slowly and softly: "I am the cousin of Mr. Zhu Shouren, a fellow governor of Luzhou. I have not seen each other for many years and I am here to visit relatives. Are you taking me with you or should I take your head?"
The team leader hurriedly said: "I will take you there, I will take you there!" Da Kui laughed, stretched out his hand to pull the team leader up, and returned the single sword in his hand to him, saying: "Oh, misunderstanding
Bro, hahahaha."
The corps commander took the single sword and put it back into its scabbard in a fog, only to hear Dakui say: "I can't survive in my hometown, so I came here to visit my relatives. My cousin is an official of the imperial court, and I know some martial arts. I guess my cousin can use it."
To have someone like me, hehehehe.”
When the captain heard this, he couldn't help but put out his thumb: "The strong man is good at his skills, I admire him in admiration!"
Dakui patted the corps leader on the shoulder and said, "Brother, please take me to see my cousin. I'm sorry for offending you so much today!" As he said this, he picked up the fan hat that he had kicked off and handed it back to the corps leader.
The corps commander took the hat and put it on, but he waved his hands and said: "Where is it? It is a small blessing to meet heroes like the strong man! Please come to the strong man~." Then he led the way: "The strong man doesn't know something. Today's Zhu Shouren Zhu
Your Excellency, I have not been acquainted with Luzhou for a long time, but now you are the master of Luzhou’s defense. Perhaps I haven’t seen you for many years.”
Dakui asked as he walked: "Looking at my brother's appearance, his accent is Han Chinese."
The Wu Chief walked in front of him and said: "Yes, this Luzhou is a troubled place. The Yuan people asked the Han military camp to guard this place. The officers and soldiers in this city are all Han." Dakui nodded and looked back.
Taking a look at the dozen or so soldiers who were following behind him, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, why are they descendants of China bothering to meet each other with swords and guns?
Dakui followed the corps commander and walked two streets to the Luzhou garrison mansion. The corps commander pointed towards the red lacquer gate and said, "This is the garrison mansion. You can go on your own."
Dakui walked to the door and looked up at the majestic garrison mansion. He couldn't help but praise: "Oh, my cousin has made a fortune!" Then he turned around and said: "Don't leave either, follow me in and drink tea together before leaving.
Bar!"
Upon hearing this, the captain waved his hands and said: "You strong man, please don't joke. I am too humble and dare not climb high, so I took my leave." After saying this, he led a group of soldiers and walked westward.
Dakui raised his voice from behind: "Brother, I'll meet you for a drink when I have time."
The corps commander turned back and waved his hand and replied: "Thank you for your kindness, strong man. See you later!" After saying that, he gradually left with his subordinates.
Seeing that they had gone far, Da Kui turned around and walked towards the Tai Street of the Defense Mansion. At this moment, the red lacquer door of the Defense Mansion opened. A servant in Tsing Yi came out of the gate carrying a red lacquer food box and saw Da Kui.
I couldn't help but frown.
Dakui accompanied Xiao as he walked closer and said, "Excuse me, Lord Guard, is he at home?"
The servant covered his nose with his hand, as if Da Kui smelled bad and asked in a low voice: "Who are you?"
Hearing this, Dakui straightened his clothes and said seriously: "I am Lord Guard's distant cousin, and I came here to visit you."
The servant sneered softly and said: "There are many people like you who climb high branches. Sir, there are distinguished guests coming today. Don't get in the way here and walk away quickly." After saying this, he carried the food box and walked down the steps.
Da Kui didn't stop him, turned around, pushed the door open and entered the garrison mansion. It turned out that no one had bolted the door after the servant went out. As the old saying goes: Beware of gentlemen, but not villains. Although you had thought that Da Kui would come in uninvited?
After entering the gate, Dakui let out smoke and watched. Facing the screen wall was a pink wall. On the wall was a painting of cranes dancing in the autumn wind. Two pebble paths went around the screen wall on the left and right. Above the head was a pergola made of green bamboo, with vines and green leaves entwining on it.
It looks similar but I don’t know what it is.
Dakui walked around the screen wall from the left, and the front was open and bright. He saw a corridor surrounded by carved beams and painted pillars, rockeries, green bamboos, birds chirping and flowers fragrant. It was a scene of wealth and wealth. The pebble roads surrounded by the screen wall converged here, twisting and winding directly into the quiet place.
at.
Da Kui didn't know how to leave for a while. Afraid of being seen if he stood for a long time, Da Kui walked straight forward along the corridor, turned a corner and walked to the door of a wing. Da Kui had also lived in a big house, and he was very fond of the wealthy family.
I know the layout quite well, so I guess I should go straight ahead, because logically speaking, I should reach the front hall further away.
The servant just now said that distinguished guests were coming to the garrison mansion, so a banquet was probably being held in the front hall, and there would probably be too many people if he left. Dakui couldn't help but stop, but he saw a moon gate not far away, and there were faint voices coming from the gate.
, Dakui immediately dodged and hid in a dense place in the bamboo forest.
Not long after, he saw two maids each carrying a tray, and on the tray were dishes. The two maids walked out of the moon gate and turned to the right. Da Kui knew that what he expected was right, so he walked towards
We should have reached the front hall if we walked forward.
Since the two maids came out of the moon door, there should be the kitchen not far from the door. Thinking of Dakui, she couldn't help but feel a growl in her stomach. She was really hungry after walking for a day. She walked in without hesitation.
Moon Gate, walk straight along the path, and soon you will see several houses.
Smoke was rising from the chimney of the house, and Dakui could smell the aroma of the food from a long distance away.
Dakui walked quietly to the door, then looked in through the open door. It was indeed the kitchen. There were two pots and stoves in the front, and two servants were busy unloading the pits for each pot.
Add fire to the stove. There is another person who should be the chef, holding a spatula and stirring something in the pot in front of the stove. There are only three people in Nuo Da's kitchen.
The kitchen is divided into an inner and an outer room. Dakui doesn't look in, and along the right wall is a vegetable rack, which is full of seasonal vegetables. Further in, there is a row of chopping boards, on which are vegetables, knives, etc.
Dakui didn't dare to delay, and took advantage of the three people to sneak into the back room of the kitchen while they were busy. He saw that there were more than ten dishes on the table next to the chopping board in the back room, but they were all raw.
The two maids who had just met were probably serving pre-dinner side dishes, and what was placed here was the main dish. Da Kui looked around and found no hiding place. When he looked up again, he had an idea in his mind. On the beam of the room
Isn’t this a comfortable place to go?
Da Kui didn't hesitate anymore, he quickly ran forward and jumped up. He raised his feet on the wall and used some strength to move up his hands. He gently put his hands on the beam and jumped onto the beam with both arms. Folks call the thieves who break into houses and pickpocket the gentleman. Now it seems that Da Kui
It does have potential. But what Dakui stole this time was neither gold nor silver, but wine and meat.
The beams of the houses of wealthy families are naturally much thicker than those of common people, and Dakui is hiding on them. It would be difficult to detect him if he didn't look carefully. Fortunately, Dakui was lying on the beams, resting, just waiting for the dishes to be cooked. I guess this cook has some tricks up his sleeve.
, he kept ordering the servants to bring the dishes prepared on the chopping board to the pot one by one. With the sound of oil popping, the aroma of the dishes was even stronger than before. Dakui could not help but drool.
Come.
After a while, several fried dishes were brought back to the chopping board one by one. Da Kui was not in a hurry when he saw them. These dishes were all side dishes. Although they were full of fragrance, they were not the main course. This main dish must be
For good fish and good meat, Dakui really has to wait.
If you start in advance, it may not be appropriate. These vegetables are all on the plate, and you will be found if they are missing. The main course is in the pot, and the lid is covered to prevent it from getting cold, so you have to follow the main course.
Start with the dish. In this way, you can be said to be invisible. If you want to find out, you have to lift the lid.
After waiting for nearly half an hour, seven or eight dishes were cooked, and it was time for the main course. As expected, the chef came to work on the chopping board with his own hands, and a servant came over to start.
Just listen to the chef saying while cutting green onions, ginger and garlic: "This imperial concubine's chicken and these fennel pork ribs need to be cooked more carefully. Today there is a distinguished guest in the house. If you are satisfied with the food, maybe Mr. Zhu can
I still need some money."
The servant who was waiting on you smiled and said, "You are a master master. It is normal for Master Zhu to reward you for your skills."
The chef smiled proudly, and then shouted: "There's a big fire in the east stove." The servants outside hurriedly responded.
I saw the chef stuffing the prepared ingredients into the belly of the white-striped chicken one by one, and then stuffing the chicken into an earthen pot. Then he went to the porcelain basin on the side and scooped out the stock with a spoon and poured it into the earthen pot.
Then he picked up the earthen pot with both hands and went to the outside. He must have stewed the chicken. Then he saw the cook making another dish of fennel elbow and bringing it to stew.
Da Kui had also eaten imperial concubine chicken and fennel pork ribs. They were delicious, but he didn't know it was so troublesome. After waiting for another half an hour, he saw the two earthen pots brought back and placed on the chopping board.
Dakui couldn't help but chuckle to himself: "I can finally eat it. After a while, you guys will be busy serving the dishes and it will be Zhang's time to eat meat."
