News of the triumphant return of the city guards quickly spread throughout Anyi and even the entire Hedong County.
This expedition can be said to be huge. After all, Wei B and Wei C, uncles and nephews, are personally in command, so all forces are naturally paying a lot of attention to it.
On the day when Wei B and his party returned, many spies had already sent the information back in advance. In particular, Wei B used 2,000 troops and horses to wipe out nearly 100,000 Hu tribesmen, and hung all the corpses on high towers to warn the grassland.
A scene from the Hu tribe.
There was a spy who was proficient in the art of painting, and even drew the scene directly with pen and ink. It was really shocking. There were hundreds of towers, nearly 100,000 barbarians, and at least three to four hundred corpses hung on each tower.
, layer upon layer, connected in series, it is shocking and makes one’s hair stand on end.
All the forces that received the information were greatly shocked, and the families that had already joined the Wei family were naturally happy. However, those families or forces that had other plans, such as the Yuan family in Runan, had to re-examine their relationship with the Wei family.
"Wei Zhongdao, Wei Zhongdao, I really underestimated you back then." A newly opened restaurant in Anyi County.
Yuan Shu sat facing the street and stared condescendingly at the carriages passing slowly on the street.
Xu Chu, who was driving the bus, seemed to feel something. He raised his head and glanced this way. Perhaps he didn't feel any danger, so he kept his head down and drove the bus without paying attention.
On the other hand, the two men behind Yuan Shu were inexplicably broken into cold sweats. Xu Chu glanced at them casually, as if he was rushing toward them with a terrifying evil spirit, and his unabashed murderous intention made people shudder.
Only two days and nights had passed. Xu Chu had killed more than 300 people in one night. It could be said that the smell of blood on his body had not yet been washed away, and the killing intent in his eyes had not yet dissipated.
Not to mention Xu Chu, the city guards were slowly passing by on the street at this time. The people originally wanted to raise their arms and shout, but they were so shocked that they were speechless and could only remain silent one by one.
The watching army left.
"Iron-blooded warrior!" Looking at this scene, Yuan Shu was filled with envy. If he could have such a powerful army, his plan would have been accomplished long ago. Why would he go north to Hedong County to seek cooperation?
Yes, Yuan Shu came for the Wei family this time, or to be more precise, Wei B.
"Sir, it is indeed as stated in the intelligence. The Wei family's city guards are all very brave. If they can... Hey, look, sir." Above the long street.
Xu Chu waved the dragon-slaying knife in his hand, forcing back a man and a horse that suddenly rushed up. Zheng~
"Hahaha, Lao Xu, you can't do it." Xu Chu gritted his teeth and withstood the opponent's powerful and heavy blow, raised his head and glared, and shouted sternly: "You Zhang Yide, I almost chopped you with a knife." Zhang Fei burst out laughing.
, he cupped his fists and saluted the carriage, and shouted loudly: "Sir, Zhang Fei is back." The carriage curtain opened, and Wei B glared at Zhang Fei angrily, frowned and asked: "Where is Mr. Gongming?" At this time,
A cavalry squad rushed towards the city gate, and who else could it be if it wasn't Xu Huang?
"Master!"
"Sir." Xu Huang, Zhang Fei and others bowed respectfully with clasped fists. Wei B frowned slightly, feeling that something was different about them. He paused and looked at Xu Huang's face.
"What's the matter with the knife wounds on your face?" Xu Huang had several very obvious sword scratches from his eyebrows to his jaw. The injuries were not deep, so applying some plaster should make them fine.
Xu Huang's face turned red and he smiled bitterly and said: "If you are not good at fighting against others, you will be fooled."
"Oh?" Wei B looked at the other people with interest. Including Zhang Fei, there were more or less scars on their bodies, and their anti-stab uniforms were also in tatters, with all kinds of dents on them.
marks and scratches.
"Okay, let's go back first and don't disturb the order of the city."
"Yes." After the group left, at the restaurant, Yuan Shu Jian frowned and couldn't help but said, "Is it my imagination? Why did I see his shadow in those people just now?"
"Master?"
"No, it's okay..." Yuan Shu felt inexplicably uneasy, always feeling that he might be disappointed from this trip.
At the same time, on the other side of the long street, there was also a newly opened inn.
"Dad, is that Wei Zhongdao? He's quite good-looking, huh."
"Oh, how rare is it that someone can actually compliment you on how good-looking they are?" Also facing the street, a father and daughter, wearing bamboo hats and white gauze covering their faces, sat facing each other.
Judging from the sound of her voice, the girl should be around fourteen or fifteen years old, while the man is slightly hoarse, making it difficult to tell his true age.
"Here comes the dish, two distinguished guests. This is our signature dish, Mapo Tofu. Please try it!" The girl was startled when she heard the words and looked curiously at the Mapo Tofu that the waiter put on the table. The red-colored tofu
It exuded a tantalizing aroma that made her swallow her saliva.
Seeing this, the waiter knew that they were outsiders and it was probably their first time to eat this dish, so he enthusiastically introduced: "Would you two distinguished guests have a bowl of rice? This dish must be eaten with rice to make it delicious.
"Here." The man raised his head slightly and asked curiously: "Oh, rice, is it millet or sorghum?" The waiter chuckled and said bluntly: "It's neither, it's rice with the husks removed. How about I bring a bowl over?"
, let you two take a look?" The man nodded slightly when he heard the words.
"Thank you." The waiter came back with a bowl of rice with clear grains on the plate in his hand.
"Your honorable guest, you can try it. This bowl of rice is just a gift from our store. We don't charge you any money." The waiter greeted enthusiastically.
The father and daughter were stunned at the same time. The man asked curiously: "This rice has the husks removed, and the price is not cheap. You just give it to us to eat?" The girl also looked at the waiter with the same curiosity, but she paid more attention to her reading.
I still put my focus on the plate of mapo tofu. I can't help it. It's so fragrant that it makes people's index fingers tickle when they smell it.
The waiter smiled nonchalantly and said: "This is what our shopkeeper ordered. Every guest who takes care of our store for the first time will be given a bowl of rice. If the guests taste the delicious food, they will come back more often."
, give and take, that’s pretty much the truth.”
"Oh, this is interesting. I would like to ask if your shopkeeper is here and can I meet you?" the man chuckled.
Hearing this, the waiter bowed politely and said, "It's unfortunate. Today, the second master returns in triumph, so my shopkeeper will definitely not be able to come."
"Why is this?" the girl suddenly asked. The waiter seemed to want to show off, raised his head and said: "I don't like you two, the shopkeeper of my house is the second master's young wife, who owns an inn, a restaurant, and a pastry shop.
It's a leisure business to relieve boredom. It's okay that the second master is not here. Now that the second master is back, the shopkeeper must..." The waiter pursed his lips in the direction of the Wei Mansion with a narrow look on his face.
The father and daughter looked at each other, and the girl said excitedly: "So, your shopkeeper's surname is Hao?"
"Hey, do you know my shopkeeper?" Faced with the waiter's surprised look, the father and daughter laughed at the same time. The girl said, "Dad, I didn't expect Hao Niang to have such a good fortune. Now Brother Dadao can rest assured.
." The man chuckled, nodded and said: "Well, yes, this guy is quite affectionate and righteous." The waiter looked confused, these two people don't really know the boss lady, then he just... Oh, hurry up
