People from the Northeast are said to be warm-hearted, but Yan Shouyi had only met Zhao Yiyao, a female man, and this was his first time with a man from the Northeast.
Hu Chai cooked the food himself, and the fireworks gave people a sense of intimacy. Yan Shouyi even felt that his previous attitude when talking to Xu Shengnan was too pretentious.
Xu Shengnan closed the door outside, and Yan Shouyi and others had no way out.
He cupped his hands and walked towards Hu Chai, saying: "Folklore Research Association, Yan Shouyi, first meeting."
Hu Chai put down the spatula, wiped his greasy hands on his apron, then walked towards Yan Shouyi with a smile, and shook hands with Yan Shouyi warmly:
"I am the deputy helmsman of Wushen Mountain, and the chief helmsman Ji Bing is my father-in-law, as you must all know."
Yan Shouyi felt that Hu Chai was a little over-enthusiastic, but enthusiasm was not a bad thing.
Hu Chai led everyone to sit down, and then warned: "Wait a moment, my Northeastern stewed goose will be ready soon!"
After saying that, Hu Chai turned around and went to work.
"Hey, the deputy helmsman of Wushen Mountain is pretty good!" Long Feicheng discussed with a smile.
Chang Shan also clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, the donor must be a kind person who loves to give."
However, others did not express their opinions. As a veteran, the kindness of strangers is the most dangerous.
Miaoji and Dog Taoist did not accept Hu Chai's kindness at all, because Hu Chai was just a little more enthusiastic and smiled a little more, which did not necessarily mean that he was kind-hearted or a friend of the Folklore Research Society. You really have to tell a person
How his character is depends on how he handles situations.
Yan Shouyi and Lao Jin were simply cautious.
After a while, Xu Shengnan pushed open the courtyard door, holding two boxes of beer. Behind her was another person with liquor in his arms.
"Is your whole beer still white?" Hu Chai shouted at the earthen stove.
Yan Shou thought for a while: "I'll be fine if I drink beer."
Dog Taoist priests, Miao Ji and Lao Jin, who are a bit older, prefer Hebai, while Yan Shouyi, Long Feicheng and Chang Shan prefer beer.
Xu Shengnan put down his drink and left. It seemed that the meeting was more personal.
Five minutes later, Hu Chai brought the large iron basin to the table. The stewed goose in the basin was fragrant, and the juice was still bubbling with small bubbles.
Hu Chai wiped his hands, sat down next to Yan Shouyi with a smile, and said, "Hey, it's too far away to be a guest! I thought there weren't any good restaurants nearby, so I just cooked it myself. Don't dislike Ang!"
Lao Jin was the first to pick up a piece of meat. After tasting it, he said it was delicious. Only then did the others feel free to use their chopsticks.
I have to say that Hu Chai's cooking skills are really good, and everyone even wondered if this guy had worked in the kitchen before.
Hu Chai opened a few bottles of beer and greeted everyone with a toast. Everyone slowly lowered their guard and clinked glasses with Hu Chai and said some polite words.
After three rounds of drinking, Hu Chai got a little drunk. He patted Yan Shouyi on the shoulder and said:
"President Yan's name is so impressive! If the current situation wasn't so severe, I would really like to go to Rongcheng to have a drink with you!"
Yan Shouyi said modestly: "Master Hu is so complimentary."
"No, no, no! It's not an exaggeration at all!" Hu Chai shouted at the top of his voice, "I don't even look down on your reputation as the heir of the Dragon and Tiger Secret Text, but you were in Rongcheng University three months ago.
The time he started killing people really impressed me!"
Everyone's eating speed slowed down a little, and everyone was distracted listening to Hu Chai's words.
Hu Chai admires Yan Shouyi just because Yan Shouyi once went on a killing spree?
He then heard Hu Chai say: "Those bastards from famous sects, relying on their strength, have been bullying our folk sect for so many years. President Yan helped me get out of my mouth that time! Let me tell you,
All the disciples of the famous sect should die! The only regret is that you didn’t kill enough last time. I remember they killed more than 200 people, right? You should have killed them all then! Leave no one behind!"
Hu Chai's tone sounded like he was bragging, but what he said didn't sound like a joke at all.
Especially when Hu Chai was talking about killing people, his eyes were shining and his face was full of excitement, as if he wished he could be there and help Yan Shouyi kill a few more people.
Everyone suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a bit solemn.
This Hu Chai may not be as gentle as he seems on the surface.
Yan Shou put down his chopsticks and asked Hu Chai: "How much does Master Hu hate famous families?"
"Hate to the bone, and we are irreconcilable!"
Without even thinking about it, Hu Chai replied: "My father-in-law is the same, if we encounter disciples from famous sects, they will never leave alive, not even one of them!"
Ji Bing hated the famous sect, and everyone in the Taoist community knew this. This was because Ji Bing's daughter died at the hands of a disciple of the famous sect... Ji Bing's daughter was also Hu Chai's wife.
It is understandable that they both hate famous families.
"Today we met disciples of the Zhenwu Sect at the highway exit. The reinforcements from Wushen Mountain arrived to subdue them. I would like to ask Captain Hu, what happened to those people in the end?"
"Of course they will be killed!" Hu Chai laughed loudly, "What's the use of keeping their lives? Waiting for them to kill us in Wushen Mountain in the future?"
Yan Shouyi was silent for a while.
The purpose of his going north was to resolve conflicts, not to intensify them.
Hu Chai's attitude towards the famous sect made it impossible for Yan Shouyi to truly be friends with Hu Chai. Such a murderous person would eventually swing the butcher's knife at his own people.
Sure enough, this meal was not that delicious.
Yan Shouyi looked at Dog Taoist Priest and Miaoji. Their attitudes were the same as Yan Shouyi's.
So Yan Shou picked up the wine glass and said to Hu Chai: "Master Hu, the purpose of our trip is to go to Changbai Mountain to find someone. Time is tight and we can't delay for too long. I offer you this glass of wine. After this meal, we
It’s time to continue on the road.”
"Hey, don't worry!"
Hu Chai pressed down Yan Shouyi's wine glass and said mysteriously: "I just learned that President Yan has arrived, so I hurriedly prepared a big gift."
And gifts?
Yan Shouyi frowned. He was not particularly looking forward to this gift, but felt that it might be a trouble.
Hu Chai clapped his hands and shouted outside the courtyard: "Guardian Zuo, bring me in!"
Xu Shengnan pushed open the courtyard door, holding a chain in his hand. After pulling hard, seven Taoist priests wearing Taoist robes were dragged in from outside the courtyard!
The hands, feet, and necks of these Taoist priests were all locked with shackles. The shackles also had spikes that penetrated their joints, causing pain to their bones every time they took a step.
As for escaping, that is simply a pipe dream.
Everyone at the table put down their chopsticks and wine glasses and looked at the seven Taoist priests in silence.
Only Hu Chai happily filled himself up with wine and said with a smile:
"These seven Taoist priests were just captured by my men. Judging from their attire, they seem to be Taoist priests from the Maoshan sect! Taoist priests from Maoshan are not common. Since Chairman Yan is leaving, I will kill all seven of them and give them to Yan.
