Naturally, the yamen also saw Li Xiuzhu meditating, so he was not surprised when he heard this.
"My lord has been here for an hour."
Li Xiuzhu nodded, not surprised.
Beiming's magical skill is carried by oneself. The thicker one's own internal energy is, the faster it can absorb and refine internal energy.
"Let's go, take me to see the next one. Remember, death row prisoners should be the most vicious ones."
"Yes, sir!"
The second one was an old man. He didn't even look at Li Xiuzhu.
But there was an old man, who was a little embarrassed. He seemed to have noticed Li Xiuzhu's concerns, and the Yameni on the side said: "Sir, don't think he is an old man, he is only a third-rate master, but he killed 118 people in Zuojiazhuang.
.”
Hiss, is it so cruel? Then he has no worries.
"Very good, you go out first, I will find you later."
"Yes, sir!"
Li Xiuzhu came in, and the old man finally took a look at Li Xiuzhu.
"Are you going to execute me? That's fine. I didn't want to live for a long time, but I didn't expect that I wouldn't dare to do anything to myself when I died."
The old man seemed to have not smiled for a long time, and he no longer knew how to laugh, so his smile was particularly ugly.
Is there a story?
Li Xiuzhu was silent for a while but decided to ask first.
"Just now the office said that you killed 118 people in Zuojiazhuang. Are you innocent?"
When the old man heard this, he looked at Li Xiuzhu strangely and nodded.
"There are 53 old, weak, women and children. They are considered innocent, but not entirely innocent."
"Although they didn't kill my Yao Yao, they also bullied my Yao Yao. I have no choice. I would rather kill a bunch of them by mistake than let one go."
"The only thing that makes me feel wrong is that I killed Sister-in-law Wang and her family."
"They are the only ones who are kind to my Yao Yao. I thought about it, Yao Yao is alone down there and no one cares."
"I can only ask them to take care of me again."
"In the next life, I will repay them by being a cow or a horse."
Li Xiuzhu was silent and had hidden secrets, but he really deserved to die.
Poor people are also hateful!
Li Xiuzhu stepped forward and put his hand on the old man.
A steady stream of internal energy came from the old man, and it was actually more than three times more powerful than the first strong man.
When Li Xiuzhu was sucking the old man's internal energy, the old man looked at Li Xiuzhu in surprise, and then pretended that Li Xiuzhu didn't exist, as if the person being sucked was not him.
This time, Li Xiuzhu did not give the old man a dumb pill, but left a poisonous pill.
"If you want to die, just eat it."
Hearing this, the old man took a look and said with a wry smile: "If I had the courage to die, I would have done it long ago. If you are pitiful, you'd better help me."
Li Xiuzhu was silent for a moment and then said: "If you are not dead in three days, I will take you on your way."
"Thanks!"
After leaving the cell door, Li Xiuzhu sat down cross-legged again.
Although Li Xiuzhu absorbed three times the internal energy this time, the time it took was only two-thirds of the first time.
After absorbing the old man's inner strength, he had a feeling that he was now at a third-rate level.
It's just that the internal strength he practices is different from others, and he can't judge his own internal strength level based on internal induction.
This is the same as innate power. What you practice at the beginning is innate internal strength, but the amount is accumulated bit by bit. You can't define this range by realm.
On this day, Li Xiuzhu was in the cell until three o'clock in the afternoon, absorbing the internal energy of 18 third-rate warriors.
At the end of the day, Li Xiuzhu absorbed and refined a person's inner energy for only one cup of tea.
This cup of tea is mainly for refining, and the internal energy will be absorbed in just a few breaths.
Li Xiuzhu didn't stop until he felt that the internal strength of a third-rate warrior was of little use to him.
When Li Xiuzhu went out, Li Biyao was still waiting.
The moment he saw Li Xiuzhu appear, Li Biyao's eyes were a little resentful.
"Even if you are obsessed with martial arts, you still have to eat. Look at what time it is."
"I don't care. If there are no delicious chicken wings today, I won't come tomorrow."
Hearing this, Li Xiuzhu asked curiously: "Do you like sweets?"
Although yesterday's roast duck was salty, it still tasted sweet on the outside.
Li Biyao looked at Li Xiuzhu and asked, "Which girl do you think can refuse sweets?"
Well, that's true.
Unfortunately, beef ribs are not suitable for sweet and sour pork ribs, otherwise sweet and sour pork ribs would be a good choice.
But red wine braised beef is also a good choice.
The Western Regions have opened up, and wine has flowed into the Great Zhou Dynasty.
"Can we get wine?"
Li Biyao's eyes lit up, is this a new dish?
"How much?"
"Two pots? No, let's have five pots."
There are so many foodies in the family, and if there is not enough food, who can eat it? Even this is not enough for him.
It's just that wine is expensive and he can't ask for much.
Let's think about two other dishes. There are 1, 2, 3... 6,... 6 mouths at home, plus 7 of us, not counting the father-in-law and mother-in-law. It's really difficult to handle.
Li Biyao nodded, not much!
"You go back and prepare first, and I'll go back to the palace to get it."
"good!"
After a simple division of labor, the two parted ways, and Li Xiuzhu started pickling when he returned home.
Prepare onions, carrots and celery first.
We can't marinate the beef at the moment, and the red wine isn't here, but we can prepare some other seasonings first.
For example, get some honey and pears, as well as cloves and fresh nepeta.
Because the marinating time cannot be up to standard, pears and honey contain enzyme protease that can break down protein, which can marinate the meat to the greatest extent and lock in moisture, making the beef soft and tender.
Cloves and nepeta can replace thyme to remove fishy smell and improve fragrance.
Remove the roots of the mushroom and divide into four pieces.
All that's left is a mouthful of broth.
We have stock at home, and my husband likes to drink chicken soup.
Chicken soup was also the main meal at this time, so in large households, everyone would basically have a pot of old soup on the fire.
Li Xiuzhu was almost done, and Li Biyao also came.
Li Xiuzhu wanted more red wine, so she directly asked someone to bring a wooden barrel filled with red wine.
Although the bucket is not big, it is more than enough to hold twenty pots.
The wine jugs at this time were not very big either, with one jug worth eighty taels of wine.
Seeing this, Li Xiuzhu breathed a sigh of relief, so he didn't prepare anything else.
It's a pity that there is no butter, but it's not a big problem.
He happened to find a jug of milk from nowhere today.
Do the separation.
"You sit down first, and I'll marinate the meat first."
"Curinated meat?"
Although Li Biyao rarely goes into the kitchen, this is the first time he knows the word bacon.
In this day and age, whoever eats meat still pickles it, and basically stews it directly.
"Um!"
Li Xiuzhu didn't explain, but marinated the beef first.
Then Li Xiuzhu read the wordless book, learned how to separate butter, and then began to manually churn milk.
"Master Li, what are you doing? Is it okay to stir the milk like this? It's all mushy."
"What's going on here? At least I need some tea. Why don't you help me stir it up?"
