Dafeng Night Watchman

Chapter 502: Chapter 502 Eating Crabs



"Boss, shopkeeper..."

The waiter looked at the back of the green-clothed guest, his face pale.

Even if he saw a ghost, he would not show such a horrified expression, because he had never seen a ghost before, but today, he saw a madman who swallowed half a pound of arsenic in one gulp.

"Quick, go and ask the doctor of the Golden Needle Hall..."

The shopkeeper screamed, and he was speechless immediately, saying: "No, catch him and make him vomit!"

The two ran out of the shop, looking left and right, and found that the green-clothed guest had disappeared in the long flow of people.

Buzuiju, one of the best restaurants in Yongzhou City.

For dining in, the average consumption per person is half a penny of silver. For private rooms, the average consumption per person is two pennies of silver. If you stay in the hotel, the best wing room costs three pennies of silver per night.

Mu Nanzhi and Xu Qian'an walked slowly for a long time, asked for directions several times along the way, and finally arrived outside the restaurant.

The waiter at the door saw the two people approaching the restaurant, and immediately came forward with understanding, nodding and bowing:

"Dear guests, do you want to stop by or stay at the hotel?"

"Stay at the hotel!"

Xu Qiyan handed the reins to the waiter, took off the water bag, poured out the white water mixed with arsenic, and gently rubbed it on the saddle..

During the process, his palms turned blue-black. After rubbing, he raised his hand, and the flesh and blood in the palms returned to normal.

The ability of the poisonous insect, combined with the surrounding environment and materials, can create special toxins.

Xu Qiyan used arsenic to create a chronic poison and smeared it on the saddle. As long as someone dared to ride the mare, the toxin solidified on the saddle would slowly evaporate with the body temperature, penetrate the pants and penetrate the skin, and then penetrate the blood vessels from the skin.

At most, he would die in a quarter of an hour, and even the gods could not save him.

The waiter had limited knowledge and could not see through the mystery. He was only at a loss for a moment, and then he saw the guest in blue throwing a piece of silver and said:

"My horse needs to be fed with concentrated feed. Beans, wheat, corn, salt, eggs, honey, these things are indispensable. I will come to check later. If you dare to cut corners, I will peel your skin."

Xu Baipiao was full of murderous and violent aura, and when he frowned, he was very oppressive.

The waiter held the heavy silver, surprised and scared, and said: "Don't worry, don't worry, I will take good care of your beloved horse."

Immediately led the horse to the backyard.

"If you go out, you must have the spirit of the world. Pretending to be gentle, respectful, frugal and modest outside? It will only make people think you are a fat sheep? Everyone will come to slaughter you."

Xu Qian'an smiled and explained to the most beautiful woman in Dafeng.

The underworld and the imperial court are different worlds. In the capital, one should be low- key in life and high-profile in work. Relationships and qualifications are important everywhere.

But the underworld is different. The underworld is full of good and bad people, and young people are full of vigor. Sometimes there are swords and sabers, so you have to show your fierceness and violence, which can avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.

After entering the lobby of the restaurant, Xu Qian'an took Mu Nanzhi to the counter. Along the way, he heard diners not far away talking:

"I heard that someone found a big tomb in the barren mountains thirty miles south of the city. More than a dozen people went in and never came out again."

"I heard that people from the Gongsun family also sent people to the tomb, but all of them died inside. Now it is said that there are rare treasures inside, otherwise, how could it be so dangerous."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"It must be a rumor deliberately spread by the Gongsun family, wanting to let the Jianghu people be the vanguard."

"Not really, the more dangerous the tomb, the more treasures there are. If there are only a few crooked burial objects, who would spend so much effort to set up a mechanism?"

"That makes sense."

"The Gongsun family has recently been recruiting heroes in Yongzhou City, preferably capable and righteous people who are proficient in Fengshui mechanisms. Unfortunately, I am just a warrior with limited strength, otherwise I would also go and get involved."

Mu Nanzhi's face changed slightly when he heard it.

Xu Qian'an frowned.

The underground palace outside Yongzhou City was discovered? Well, the fight between Shenshu and the ancient corpse made a lot of noise, and the mountain range collapsed to a certain extent. It was normal for curious people to explore afterwards.....

With Shenshu's status, the ancient corpse should not have escaped in just half a year. I hope it

has not escaped, otherwise my trip to Yongzhou will be in vain.......

While thinking, he walked to the counter and said, "Open two good rooms, next to each

other."

Mu Nanzhi next to him hurriedly said, "No, not two, one is enough..."

Her voice became smaller and smaller, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.

She was scared....Xu Qian'an glanced at the princess. He was not happy about sleeping with the most beautiful woman in Dafeng, but frowned.

First of all, the side effects of love Gu will make the host always have the urge to reproduce, and Xu Qian'an was afraid that he could not control himself.

Secondly, the side effect of the dark Gu is that the host likes to go to dark and damp places, and must have two hours of private space every day without being discovered.

The princess's spiritual essence can only be "picked" when she reaches the peak of the third grade. If the side effects of the Gu worm cannot be satisfied, it will affect the development of the Seven Deadly Gu, and thus affect my cultivation......

Xu Qi'an sighed in his heart: Sure enough, women will only affect my sword-drawing speed!

So he asked the shopkeeper for a good wing room that cost as much as one or two silvers. The shopkeeper took the silver, and his warm and attentive attitude doubled, and he personally led the two guests upstairs.

The room is at the end of the corridor, and you can see the lively scene of the main road when you open the window. Mu Nanzhi likes it very much, but Xu Qi'an just thinks it's noisy.

It is worthy of being one of the most expensive restaurants in Yongzhou City, and it is worthy

of being a wing room that supports the face of the restaurant. The desk is made of Huanghuali wood, and the four treasures of the study are placed on the table.

Mu Nanzhi entered the room and looked around, examining it, and said:

"All the paintings are famous paintings, but they are all fakes, and none of them are

authentic."

Among them, there is an authentic "Jiulu Burning Incense Record", which is in the Zhenbei

Palace and hung in her study.

"This Duan inkstone is good."

She walked to the desk again and played with a blue and white Duan inkstone. The blue and white patterns on the inkstone were like ink smudges. Mu Nanzhi said regretfully:

"The texture is fine, but not smooth enough. It is top-grade, but not the best." No matter how smooth it is, is it as smooth as you...Xu Qian'an complained in his heart.

She commented on the furnishings in the room, pens, inkstones, antique calligraphy and paintings, furniture, etc. one by one.

The shopkeeper was stunned and called him an expert: "The girl is really an expert." The slight contempt in his heart was put away immediately. This plain-looking couple should be from a noble family. They can't have such taste and vision without luxury.

Xu Qiyan, who had been listening to the whole thing, pulled the shopkeeper to the table and said with a smile: "Please talk to me for a while."

"You're welcome." The shopkeeper's attitude became very good.

Xu Qiyan asked: "Just now I heard someone in the hall say that a big tomb was found in the deep mountains in the south?"

The shopkeeper nodded and said: "There is such a thing, but I don't know whether it is true or not. It is said that many people died. The mountain is now occupied by the Gongsun family." Xu Qiyan took a sip of tea and pondered: "Gongsun family? Shopkeeper, are there any respectable underworld forces in Yongzhou City?"

Although he had been to Yongzhou once, he was not very clear about the situation of the local

gangs.

In the eyes of the night watchman, only big forces like Jianzhou Wulin League can be regarded

as worthy, and the rest are garbage.

Of course, this does not mean that the gangs in the underworld are not strong, but the night watchman is affiliated with the court after all, and has a natural sense of superiority over the gangs in the underworld.

The shopkeeper opened his mouth and did not need to ponder:

"Near Yongzhou City, the most powerful are Gongsun Villa, 18 miles to the north, and

Longshen Fort, 20 miles to the east, Wanlong River. The gangs attached to these two big

forces are......

"As for the counties under Yongzhou, I don't know."

Yongzhou is one of the thirteen continents of Dafeng. Yongzhou City has dozens of counties

and states under its jurisdiction. How many gangs there are can only be known after statistics

by the government.

Big forces like Longshen Fort and Gongsun Family usually do not have their headquarters in the city, and the government will not allow it.

Mu Nanzhi frowned and said, "Does the Yongzhou government not care about the tomb?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Why should it care? This is not a flood or locust plague, so the government is too lazy to care. As for the dead, they are all people from the underworld,

not ordinary people. Even if they are ordinary people, if you don't report it to the government, the government will not bother to care, right?

"Besides, the Gongsun family has some friendship with the governor of Yongzhou, so they can "enclose" that piece of mountain."

"What the shopkeeper said makes sense."

The two men smiled at each other.

Xu Qian'an learned from the shopkeeper that in this season, lake crabs are fat, and Yangbai

Lake outside the city is a holy place for eating crabs near Yongzhou City.

Before this time, the rich families, eunuchs, and heroes in the underworld in the city will rent

boats to cruise the lake and enjoy the fat lake crabs.

Mu Nanzhi's eyes lit up when he heard it. After chatting for a few words, the shopkeeper reluctantly said goodbye.

Xu Qianan closed the door, turned around and walked behind the screen, moved the bathtub

aside, took out the fragments of the Earth Book, and poured out a vat. The silt in the vat was shallow, the water was slightly turbid, and a dark golden lotus root lay at the bottom of the vat.

Half of the body was exposed in the silt, and the other half was hidden under the silt.

He traveled the rivers and lakes with the princess for two purposes:

First, travel all the way to Jianzhou and hand over the lotus root to the old man of the Wulin

League to fulfill his promise.

But the lotus root was not yet ripe, so he simply took the person and the lotus root with him. I

think when he traveled to Jianzhou, the nine-color lotus root should be ripe.

Second, he wanted to try to find some highly toxic plants and give them to the flower god to

cultivate in order to strengthen the poisonous Gu.

In this case, Mu Nanzhi must be brought with him.

"Huh..."

Xu Qianan exhaled. With the current strength of the power Gu, it was still a bit difficult to lift a

large water tank, and he still had to eat more.

Fortunately, I left Beijing, otherwise there would be three more foodies at home, and my aunt

would cry out of heartache... He complained in his heart, sitting beside the rosewood desk, thinking about what he would do next.

"Dragon Qi is scattered everywhere, and there is no such thing as radar. If you want to find the host of dragon Qi, there are only two ways: one, a strong intelligence network. The host of dragon Qi will not be abnormal in the short term, but after a long time, it will immediately

show its edge. It will not remain unknown forever. "Second, relying on the aggregation effect of dragon Qi and luck, maybe I don't need to look

for it deliberately, I can encounter it when I travel to a certain place. As long as the host of

dragon Qi is no more than 100 meters away from me, I can sense it through the earth book. I am equivalent to a small radar with a range of only 100 meters. "There is no news about the remains of Shenshu for now, but the Nine-tailed Sky Fox must

have clues. I just need to wait for her to come to me. The most important thing now is to collect the materials for the soul-summoning bell."

Among the materials for the soul-summoning bell, two of them are the nails and venom of a thousand-year-old corpse. Xu Qian'an happened to know an ancient corpse, so he chose Yongzhou City as his first stop.

"As long as the seal of Shenshu is not weakened, I will be sure that the ancient corpse will not

discover my true state. Well, I have to work harder in cultivation. Among the seven abilities of

the Seven Deadly Gu, the poisonous Gu is the easiest to cultivate. As long as there is an endless supply of highly toxic things, it can grow immediately.

"The second is the strength Gu. As long as you keep eating and keep tempering your body, it

can also grow rapidly. Although my cultivation is sealed, my body is a third-grade body. I can ignore the tempering stage and just start eating directly.

"The Heavenly Gu is the foundation of the Seven Deadly Gu. It has developed to a very high

level and does not need to be taken care of for the time being. As long as the Dark Gu is

"hidden" for two hours a day, it can grow steadily. Perhaps it still lacks fighting... I haven't tried this, I can try it when I have the chance.

"The Corpse Gu needs to devour corpse qi. Cultivating the Corpse Gu is also one of the

purposes of this trip to Yongzhou. The Love Gu and the Heart Gu will be suppressed for the time being and not cultivated.

"I don't want to travel the world and become a flower thief. And there is a Dafeng's most

beautiful woman by my side. If I don't suppress the Love Gu, one day it will go off accidentally.

"The Heart Gu is the same. Although I ride a mare, I can't really ride it."

It was still early, and there was still some time before lunch. Xu Qian'an sat at the table,

sipping arsenic mixed with water like wine.

The clean-loving princess poured herself a basin of water, washed herself, and then sat in

front of the dressing table. She combed herself into a beautiful woman's bun, put on lipstick and blush, and her temperament made her look a little better.

From mediocre to presentable.

"I'll sleep on the bed at night, and you sleep on the floor."

The princess, who was sitting in front of the dressing table, saw that he just glanced at her

lightly, and then looked away without any reluctance, and her eyebrows were immediately raised.

"You can also sleep on the bed and I'll sleep on you."

Xu Qiyan said unhappily.

The princess "tutted", as if she had long been accustomed to his nonsense and didn't take it

seriously.

She stood up and walked behind the screen, put her hand into the water tank, and fiddled with the water out of boredom.

The water was filled with spiritual energy.

Near noon, Xu Qiyan took the water tank back to the fragments of the Earth Book, and through

the relationship of Buzuiju, he booked a table on the ship. At this point, if it was a single

person, let alone booking a table on the ship, there would be no boats. Fortunately, as a large restaurant, Buzuiju has channels and relationships to meet the guests'

needs for crabs. Ask.

Yangbai Lake, the water is shimmering, and there are patches of willow trees planted by the lake, with bare branches and no green.

In late autumn, the lake breeze blows, mixed with chill.

A ship with "Wangji Fish Shop" hanging on it floats in the lake. Mu Nanzhi, wearing a fox fur

coat, sits at a table by the window. There is a small clay stove on the table, warming rice wine,

which warms both the wine and the person. A few side dishes, twenty plump river crabs.

"The vinegar tastes good, but it's a pity that there is too little sauce, well, but this highlights

the plumpness of the river crabs."

Xu Qian'an bit the chewy crab roe in his mouth and nodded contentedly.

In his recipe, lake crabs can be ranked in the top ten. Of course, crabs are also divided into

types. Female crabs cannot be ranked in the top ten, only male crabs can be ranked. "Crab roe and crab roe are two completely different things. In comparison, the compressed

crab roe is more fragrant and delicious, and the crab roe is inferior after all, so I don't like to

eat female crabs, but I have no resistance to male crabs..."

Xu Qian'an picked up the wine pot on the small mud stove and poured a glass of warm wine

for the princess.

"Eating crabs can also be eaten to show respect and inferiority?"

Mu Nanzhi rolled her eyes at him, took a sip of the wine, her face flushed, her body warm, she

looked out of the lake, and suddenly whispered: "Look, is that the boat of the Gongsun family?"

Xu Qian'an turned his head and looked out the window. Sure enough, he saw a two-story large

ship breaking through the waves, hanging the "Gongsun" flag.
