Turn a beast into a god

Fengjingyuan is not too big, but you have to see where it is.

Not to mention being in the affluent Liz City, even the city lord's mansion of Wanfeng City in the Jialuo Empire is about the same size as this scenery garden, which is enough to show that the Benlei Chamber of Commerce is rich and powerful, even if it is a foreign country, it can still extend its influence. , as long as money can work, it is not difficult.

These days, Qiaobang and his party lived happily in this bamboo building. After a period of running-in, everyone understood each other's temperament and formed a small group, like Hu Jiameng would be with Qiu Wuhui, and compete with each other. Occasionally, he would walk out of the bamboo forest and look up at the stars in the night sky for several days, pointing at the two moons in the sky, talking and laughing, Ren Ziyu and Lei Tao often hang out together, Lei Tao wants to protect Qiao Bang from too far away, so Ren Ziyu mentions Bringing a spear to Lei Tao's side to help, it was very harmonious.

And the strangest thing is Yu Yifei and Shu Yuhan. Everyone saw Yu Yifei's resolute attitude before, but now it is Yu Yifei who is by Shu Yuhan's side, and they both knelt down and counted on the ground All kinds of spiritual plants that grow out are grown by Shu Yuhan's release of spiritual power. Because the mind-shattering bamboo forest is strong in exclusivity, in order to ensure that the spiritual plants have sufficient nutrients, they are deliberately planted at a location far away from the bamboo forest. A well-organized earth pit was opened up to be used as a pond. Unfortunately, it is not running water. The pond can only rely on precipitation to replenish new water, but it is enough to irrigate the spiritual plants.

Everyone tacitly did not bother Yu Yifei and Shu Yuhan. Everyone subconsciously believed that this was the scene after the long-lost mother and child met. He experienced the long-lost warmth in alchemy. It seems that the shortcomings in the growth process are also made up at this moment. Others can see him smiling, but in fact he is much happier than he appears.

If you want to say who is the most unhappy, it must be Li Ruitao. He is struggling to find someone to talk to when he stays in this scenery garden. The best person to talk to is Hu Jiameng. Lei Tao is a boring gourd, and he can't chat deeply, Ren Ziyu...

Forget it, don't deal with him...

If it wasn't for his mission, Li Ruitao wouldn't have stayed with Ren Ziyu for an extra minute!
The only ones left are Lu Xulei, who is constantly absorbing the spiritual energy of the world, and Ni Rui, who is squatting on the ground to sense the spirit insects. It is conceivable how boring Li Ruitao is. box, reminding everyone that it was noon.

The person who came this time was an old man with gray temples and wrinkled face. His cultivation had reached the level of a spiritual being. He might have a decent life in the Jialuo Empire. He could be a guard or sentry post. But in the Loulan Dynasty, the spirit warriors and spirit warriors could only serve as handymen in the main city, and they would face the risk of being laid off at any time.

"My lords, this is the food that shopkeeper Li ordered the villain to send. Please use it slowly." The old man presented the heavy food box with both hands. It is very true, this is definitely not a callus formed by fighting or holding soldiers all year round, so I can't help feeling a little soft in my heart.

"Thank you, I trouble you to come here to deliver the food." After all, Li Ruitao is kind-hearted, not as indifferent as Lu Xulei, although the food has passed the inspection of Yu Yifei and Shu Yuhan and there is no problem, but for safety Considering that everyone didn't eat it, Hu Jiameng just let Hu Jiameng release the space turbulence to sweep away the food, stirred it with the tableware, pretended to have tasted it, and let the handyman take it back.

Everyone agrees with such a cautious approach. It is natural to be cautious when going out, not to mention Tang Yingying and Tang Yun, Qiao Bang and his party do not fully trust them, and they are vigilantly observing the movement around them every day.

After all, the most valuable thing in the Loulan Dynasty is not Jinyang coins, but sincerity.

"My lord, you are joking. It is my honor to be able to serve you. Shopkeeper Li also ordered the villain to convey that the important matters entrusted by your lords have been done. Please wait patiently. Shopkeeper Li will come here to let you know when he is done with trivial matters. "The old man responded indifferently, with his head lowered, and he did not look directly into Li Ruitao's eyes.

"Thank shopkeeper Li for me, we will wait here for her arrival." This sentence was not said by Li Ruitao, but by Lu Xulei through voice transmission from the depths of the bamboo forest, and Li Ruitao heard it clearly.

"The villain will not bother you." The old man bowed and saluted, then stepped back a dozen steps, turned around, straightened his back and left the scenery garden.

Seeing the handyman leave, Li Ruitao held up the food box, thinking inwardly that it was a pity, but reason overcame his appetite, and sent the hot meals to Hu Jiameng, who would dispose of the food.

After being reminded by Li Ruitao, everyone stopped what they were doing and went back to the bamboo building to pack their bags. The packing was soon completed. After they settled the dry food in the bamboo building, they all went out together, but they saw Tang Yingying already in the bamboo grove. In the open space, one after another quickly jumped down. Lu Xulei came to Tang Yingying first, and the rest of them were separated by a distance and did not approach.

"I didn't expect that the scenery garden would change a lot. It's really a lot of ingenuity!" Tang Yingying showed a smile, gentle and friendly, which made people feel good. The light lines at the corners of her eyes relaxed with blinking, and there was a gentleness between her eyebrows and eyes. Today's charm is different from what I have seen before. The clothes are lighter and more casual, and the waist and waist are attractive.

"Where is Hall Master Li, we vulgar people are messing around here, and it's Wanji if you don't get bored. If you don't like it, I'll let my friend restore this place to its original state now." Lu Xulei didn't know if Tang Yingying's words had any deep meaning , Use retreat as advance to find the next step for yourself.

"The benefactor is joking, why would I complain? I'm too late to be happy. I thought that there was something missing in this landscape garden with bamboo forests, but I didn't expect it to have a brand new look in just five days. It really surprised me. It's impressive." Tang Yingying covered her mouth and chuckled, but she was secretly startled, the scenery garden in front of her was more than a little change, and it was extremely destructive. She had tried to plant many spiritual plants before but failed. She has a deep understanding of poisonous flowers and weeds, and she failed to plant some spiritual plants that are apparently non-toxic but will form mixed toxins together, but now she sees that a nursery centered on bamboo forests has formed , and a lot of flower buds grew, which made Tang Yingying guess at once that there might not only be planters in this group of people, but also insect masters.

How did the president meet such a group of capable people?
"Leader Li is open-minded, I respect you!" Lu Xulei clasped his hands in praise, and this kind of politeness still has to be given.

"Miss Zhesha, all benefactors must have heard that I have come here today. I have traveled many places these days, and finally found a suitable ship. I am currently transporting high-quality refined salt to Jinyang City. It does not belong to The foundation of any party is relatively clean. It is the cargo ship of the Sun family and Sun Zeyu. The inspection along the way will definitely not be strict. As long as the benefactors do not move around and don't show their heads, there is no problem in arriving at Jinyang City safely." Tang Yingying patted it lightly. He touched his chest a few times, his face was full of excitement, but at the end of the words, there was a sense of complaint.

"It's been really hard for Hall Master Li these days. I'll give you as much as you need." Lu Xulei replied softly, it would be best if he could make this happen. This group of Jialuo people made a lot of troubles on the way to the Loulan Dynasty. This is obviously extremely inefficient. Instead of rushing and causing trouble, it is better to take a ride with the wind. One thing is worse than one thing, even if you are in danger and on the river Lu Xulei was not worried at all. The abundant water source could provide him with inexhaustible ice element aura, so it could be said that he took advantage of the convenient location.

"How can I ask for the benefactor's money? It's a little girl's honor to be able to do things for the benefactor. I just hope that I can have a few good words from President Yu Hao." Tang Yingying was terrified, and waved her hands repeatedly to refuse.

"Leader Li has worked so hard. The old man and his companions have already kept this friendship in their hearts. These days, they also send food and drinks here. People are not hard stones, so how can you be ruthless? If I meet Yu Hao in the future, I will definitely say more." It's a good word, but I'm asking you for the boat trip, so please let Hall Master Li tell me the truth." Lu Xulei spoke impeccably, staring at Tang Yingying with burning eyes, his awe-inspiring aura is beyond doubt.

"Since this is the case, the little girl will not hide it. It took [-] Jinyang coins to clear up the front and back. When the time comes, when the benefactors board the cargo ship of the Sun family, you will have to pay eight Jinyang coins per person. Originally It is necessary to pay ten pieces per person, and I also told him that you are my regular customers, so I lowered it according to the situation..." Tang Yingying was embarrassed, and he was talking, her voice became unrecognizable in the end, obviously she didn't know herself Will such arranging collide with this group of Jia Luo Ling warriors who should not be underestimated.

"Thanks to Hall Master Li for waiting for me. This is your hard-earned money. Please accept it. I wonder when I will be able to board the cargo ship of the Sun family?" Although Lu Xulei had expected it, he did not expect it. For such a large amount, fortunately, I prepared two money bags of fifty Jinyang coins and one hundred Jinyang coins in advance, and immediately took out the money bag containing one hundred Jinyang coins from the space storage artifact, and handed it to In front of Tang Yingying.

"You can do it tomorrow morning, and the cargo ship will leave at noon. It will take two days and one night to reach Jinyang City. During this period, you will have to work hard for all the benefactors." Tang Yingying just felt the weight of the purse with her palm and knew that it was definitely more than that. There are [-] Jinyang coins, and he is secretly happy in his heart but keeps his face on the bright side. He didn't expect the Jialuo people to be so straightforward. Sure enough, dealing with the Jialuo people is straightforward, not as hypocritical as the Loulan people.

"Then Mr. Li will arrange two carriages tomorrow. I won't act rashly later. We are good to each other, what do you think?" Lu Xulei glanced playfully at Tang Yingying, who raised her eyebrows, obviously making her happy. Easy to do.

"Little girl will prepare the carriage and do everything properly so that the benefactor will not be disappointed." Tang Yingying rubbed the back of her hand lightly and agreed happily.

"I'm sorry!" Lu Xulei cupped his hands and bowed with a full gesture.

Naturally, Tang Yingying knew that Lu Xulei had issued an order to evict the guest, so she immediately stated that she still had things to do, so she picked up her purse and left.

In this way, time passed quickly, and the night passed in a blink of an eye. Qiao Bang and his party did not relax their vigilance. They arranged a shift vigil last night.

The handyman arranged by Tang Yingying had already appeared in Fengfengyuan early, and everyone followed the handyman to the backyard corridor of Fengfengyuan, only to realize that there was a world behind, which was actually a rather obscure path, presumably used for escape Use it, it's not common to use it.

At the end, the handyman took out more than a dozen keys and opened the steel door. Two ordinary but extra spacious carriages were parked at the door of the backyard. What he could see was a dirt road, which looked like a vegetable garden. Tang Yingying stooped out from the carriage compartment, obviously waiting for a long time.

Lu Xulei and Tang Yingying chatted for a few words, and the two sides exchanged words along the lines of the conversation. When Lu Xulei and his party got into the carriage, Tang Yingying watched the group of Jia Luoling warriors gradually go away, her eyes were unprecedentedly dignified, thoughtful As she watched, her gaze gradually became dull, and she became more and more sure that this group of people might be the group of Galo people that the Hehuan Sect was looking for. The rumor leaked out.

With this thought in mind, Tang Yingying tapped her toes to the ground, jumped up, and jumped on the roof tiles, relying on her light body style without making too much noise, like a vigorous cat spirit beast.

She was most worried about her sister Tang Yin's bad deeds. She had a beautiful skin but failed to develop a wise mind. Tang Yun was the one who could mess things up the most in Leiyin Building. She must not be allowed to be stupid again.

Qiao Bang and his party on the carriage naturally didn't know about these things, and they had no time to take care of them. The carriage was pulled by the serpentine gale horse and ran at full speed, and soon left the city of Liz. It took about an hour to reach the distance. At the nearest ferry, the sun is shining brightly at the moment, and the sun shines on the dark backs of every porter who is busy carrying goods at the ferry. All of them are dark and vicissitudes, and they are struggling to lift the goods back and forth, with sweat dripping from their cheeks , looks very laborious.

Colter's system reminded that this group of people were just ordinary people, and the person next to them who scolded them for doing things was a spiritual master named Sun Jianwei, who seemed difficult to get along with.

"Be quick! I didn't give you a meal in the morning or something? Dare to be lazy under my nose? Hold on tight, you can't afford it if you fall. I have no interest in your wife and children. What compensation do you have?" Why don't you pay attention to me?" Sun Jianwei was not polite when he sprayed dung on his mouth. Even the arrogant Ren Ziyu looked at him with contempt. What kind of skill is Lingwu to bully ordinary people? It's the worst thing to see. A bully.

Sun Jianwei reprimanded him cursingly. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a group of people getting off the carriage. He lost interest only when he saw that the carriage was inconspicuous. ignore.

Hu Jiameng stepped forward and looked around, knowing that it would be safest to say hello by himself. None of the soldiers accompanying him had a good temper, so he had to come out by himself.Thinking of this, he turned his head and glanced at Lu Xulei, and walked forward after getting his nod.

"Brother, do you know which ship belongs to Sun Zeyu, the young master of the Sun family?" Hu Jiameng smiled from the corner of his eyes, took out a Jinyang coin from his pocket, and handed it to Sun Jianwei cryptically.

"What are you looking for with Sun Zeyu?" Sun Jianwei didn't take the coin immediately, but looked at Hu Jiameng approaching suddenly with vigilance, and asked loudly, but looking at Hu Jiameng who was full of smiles, his tone couldn't be tougher. .

Reach out and don't hit the smiling face!

"It's like this. We are all regular customers of Leiyin Building. We want to take the cargo ship of Young Master Sun's house to Jinyang City to meet relatives. Isn't this the shopkeeper Li who set up a bridge? We just come here. I wonder if it can be convenient. What about it?" Hu Jiameng lowered his voice and said eloquently, he had already seen the clue that the person in front of him might be closely related to the Sun family.

"So it's you, eight gold yang coins per person, did the woman surnamed Li tell you all?" Sun Jianwei looked at Hu Jiameng and then glanced at Qiaobang and his party gathered behind him, his tone softened a lot, and he raised his head He pointed to the cargo ship behind with his chin.

"I know, I know, shopkeeper Li told us that you are Sun Zeyu. I don't know noble people with my eyes. I hope I will forgive you if I offend you." Hu Jiameng was very humble, wanting to find out more about the truth of the person in front of him.

"What nonsense are you talking about? My young master is nineteen years old, and I'm in charge, don't talk nonsense!" Sun Jianwei looked around to confirm that there were no other factions of the Sun family present, and then replied with a frown, almost with disgust written on his face .

"Hey, I saw your ruddy complexion and extraordinary appearance, and I thought you were Sun Zeyu, blame me, blame me, I was rude." Hu Jiameng laughed, put on a silly look, and rubbed his hands.

"Okay, you pay the money and get on the boat, someone will tell you how to get on the boat, be honest with me when you get on the boat, if you make trouble, I will drive you off the boat." Hu Jiameng praised Sun Jianwei rather For the sake of benefit, his face was not so blue, he raised his eyebrows and waved his hands, signaling Hu Jiameng to be quick.

"Thank you, big brother! I hope that big brother will be more tolerant on the boat. It's not easy to come out to make a living, isn't it?" Hu Jiameng thanked again and again, and took out four Jinyang coins to make up five. The Jinyang coin went into Sun Jianwei's hands, and after finishing these, he turned and walked back to meet Qiao Bang and his party.

Looking at Hu Jiameng who turned and walked away, Sun Jianwei glanced at the Jinyang coin in his palm, secretly thinking that this Hu Jiameng is for business, he was very happy, the coin in his hand had been secretly poked into his backpack, turned around and continued to scold The porter was quicker in his hands and feet, and acted responsibly.

Qiaobang and his party did not suspect him, stepped across the suspension bridge to board the cargo ship one after another, stepped into the innermost side of the cargo ship under the guidance of the porter, and rested in the space where the cargo was placed. Afraid of making too many mistakes, they did not Talk to the porters who come and go, so as not to ask about the accent, which is in vain.

It's not very dirty here, it's just a little bit old, the dampness hits, the fishy smell is constantly coming from the cabin promenade, in addition to the tangy salty smell, the sides of the ship are covered with There was a fishing net, and there was a low-footed square table less than an adult’s knee height in the innermost part, but it was full of vegetables and fruits. Looking around, I couldn’t see a chair to sit down. It was Hu Jiameng who first Noticing it, he took out a large pile of homemade wooden benches from his space storage artifact, and let everyone sit down.

Watching the porters laboriously carrying them silently, everyone felt that sitting in the cargo hold was a little awkward, but they were not willing to act rashly. If they violated any taboos, they might be kicked off the cargo ship, and they would look for another cargo ship to accommodate them. It was not an easy task, I could only resist the pressure, let the porters watch sideways and still stand still, listening to the heavy panting of the porters, walking back and forth with brisk steps, Qiao Bang was moved by the scene, Recalling the various experiences of the previous life, before each high-rise building was built, it was carried by these hard-working people, and it could only be built brick by brick. It is not pity. Qiao Bang just admired these painstaking efforts from the bottom of his heart. dry people.

What is on the shoulders is not necessarily goods, but it may also be the life pressure of a large family.

Until the porters stopped going back and forth to the cabin, Qiao Bang knew that the cargo ship was about to leave, and Sun Jianwei also came to the warehouse to check the goods in a fake manner, and stopped by to see Hu Jiameng.Contrary to the domineering attitude at the ferry just now, Sun Jianwei spoke softly to the people in the cargo hold and behaved very kindly, which surprised everyone.

It’s just that everyone doesn’t know that wearing a space storage artifact in the Loulan Dynasty itself is a symbol of confidence in one’s identity. Usually, it is the children of aristocratic families who will openly reveal the space storage artifact. In the Loulan Dynasty, this is a a means of deterrence.As soon as Sun Jianwei came in, he saw that everyone was wearing space storage artifacts on their fingers, all of which meant that the people on board were all spirit warriors. Sun Jianwei, who wanted to be pretentious, swallowed his stomach immediately, and finished with a few unnutritious words then left.

Not long after, the cargo ship left the ferry, the river was turbulent, the hull was undulating, and the swaying from side to side was not too severe, but it was naive to want to practice in such an environment. Everyone could only use the spiritual power of their feet to make their feet tight. Sticking to the deck, sticking to the hull as much as possible, and slightly raising the arms to resist, this is the only way to stabilize the figure and not to sway with the waves.

The Sun family’s cargo ship is considered a large ship, with four oars on each side of the ship, and eight curly paddles on each of the eight oars, the material of which cannot be seen clearly when submerged in the water. There are also two high and low sails on the board. It is tied with extremely strong hemp rope. From the cargo hold, you can nod your head and watch the boatman climb up the sail pole along the hemp rope and observe the changes of the river.

And Sun Jianwei was also strange, he didn't show his spiritual strength, but climbed up the mast along the rope ladder, boarded the observation tower and scanned around the mast several times before giving up.

The speed of the boat became faster and faster, and it was not until the branch of the tributary that the speed suddenly slowed down. It was already dusk, and the river water was illuminated by the setting sun and turned golden. , even the wind became stronger, and the ship shook more and more.

Just when everyone was curious, there was a sudden knock on the door, and Hu Jiameng ran to open the door first. It was a dark-skinned strong man who brought food. Colt was prompted by the system and learned that it was a spirit warrior who had cultivated in the spirit realm. Hu Jiameng Thanking the strong man again and again, he took the cabin door and opened the wooden cover to see that it was cooked with fish and shrimp. The pungent smell made people cover their mouth and nose. Each took out dry food and water to replenish their strength.

After a short wait, the boatman knocked on the door of the cargo hold to remind Qiaobang and others to come out to get some air.Everyone thanked them one after another, followed the boatman onto the deck, and saw a beautiful scenery in front of them. The vast water area was covered with mountains, and there were stretches of mountain peaks on both sides of the river. beautiful outside.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing where this place was, but seeing the boatmen disembarking along the boat ladder and setting up a bonfire on the river bank, it was not a dangerous place.

Qiao Bang vaguely remembered that Jing Yue mentioned in his lectures that the main rivers running through the north and south of the Loulan Dynasty were three rivers and five rivers. The Gesalar River, the Gerilang River, the Gandan River and the Gombala River.The prosperity of the city of Liz benefits from the confluence of the Kurumos River, the Gerilang River and the Gesaral River on the Izlis Plain, and the irrigation water source is sufficient and suitable for living.

Right now, the cargo ship is on the Kurumos River, on its way from southeast to northwest. If it takes half a day, it should have arrived at the Alghistan Plateau. If Qiao Bang guessed correctly, this is the eastern suburb of Alarid City. The upper reaches of the floodplain plain in front of us is the Kujiang Weir. The water conservancy project built by Li Xiang and Li Bing's father and son made the rushing water flow smoother, making the middle reaches of the Kurumos River less prone to floods, and creating a better environment for the downstream Iraqi people. The Zilis Plain provides a good growing environment, which contributed to the Izzy Province becoming the main food supply base of the Loulan Dynasty. It also accumulated nearly [-]% of the permanent population of the empire due to the objective factor of being livable. An important source, and because the north of the Yizlis Plain is the Alghistan Plateau, the east is the vast saline-alkali land and the desert that stretches for thousands of miles, forming a strategic position that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, which also makes this place compared with For other provincial capitals, prosperity and stability should be achieved.

The delta in front of me is formed by the confluence of the Kurumos River and the Sera River. There is no vegetation attached to the soft sandy soil, and the river bank is covered with reeds and grasses. The mountains and rivers benefit the southern fields, and the flowing water is like thousands of wealth. With the mountains and the world, the mountains and rivers are half divided here. This place can be said to be the luck of the Loulan Dynasty. If the Kujiangyan had not been built for hundreds of years, the Loulan Dynasty would have faced the most severe crisis. Severe food shortages and turmoil in the world will only happen in a moment.

Sun Jianwei slowly walked out from the deck of the cargo ship. He seemed to have dozed off, rubbed his sleepy eyes, saw Qiao Bang and his party standing on the deck blankly, moistened his throat, and said.

"Aren't you coming down to eat? I just caught a lot of river fish, share some with you, and you can roast and eat yourself?" Sun Jianwei said lightly, taking this opportunity to observe Qiao Bang and his party carefully.

"Then it's disrespectful." Hu Jiameng smiled all over his face and bowed his fists slightly to thank him.

"Second, give them eight fish and get some big ones!" Sun Jianwei said loudly, tapped the deck with his toes, leaped over the mast of the ship, and jumped down to the river beach. avoid arousing suspicion.

Qiao Bang and the others looked at each other for a few seconds, jumped off the cargo ship, and chatted with the boatman. The eight river fish were as long as half Qiao Bang's height. Hu Jiameng smiled and thanked Li Ruitao and asked Li Ruitao to help the boatman. A small cluster of flames ignited from the palm of his hand, Li Ruitao threw them out precisely, the flames landed on the firewood, and instantly ignited.

Sun Jianwei observed Li Ruitao's every move coldly, without saying anything.

Hu Jiameng took out the iron shelf from the space storage artifact, spread out a piece of yellowed square cloth on the river beach, skillfully cut open the fish maw to take out the internal organs, and handed it to Ren Ziyu to scrape off the fish scales, Lu Xulei took the initiative to clean it The work of the fish body, and Qiu Wuhui was even more extraordinary, he even carried a cutting board and kitchen knife with him, yelling loudly for Lu Xulei to bring the fish, and cut the fish into various raw Fish meat, there are chunks and strips, the knife skills are very good, it scared Li Ruitao and Yu Yifei who were surrounded by it, for fear that the kitchen knife would leave Qiu Wuhui's palm and fly in front of him. Done.

Hu Jiameng is also fully prepared. God knows why there are so many seasonings in his space storage artifact, such as cumin, sugar cube, honey, pepper, sesame oil, and sorghum wine. When he took them out one by one, he was shocked. Lu Xulei and others also surprised the boatmen not far away. The river beach is full of dozens of seasonings in porcelain bottles and clay pots. It's hard not to notice this side.

"Okay, let's take a look at my barbecue skills!" Hu Jiameng shouted excitedly. Fortunately, he still remembered that he was in the Loulan Dynasty. They were strung together with twigs and placed on the iron frame in a staggered manner. With a light wave of the palm of the hand, the spiritual power of the fire element turned into a ball of flame and shot out from the palm, roasting the iron frame until it was red.

In the blink of an eye, the meat skewers have turned golden, and the fat seeped and dripped on the grill, making a "bibo bibo" roasting sound in the flames, but Hu Jiameng grabbed the oil brush and swipe the fish sticks After two strokes, the golden oil foam soaked the fish meat, and the meat fragrance wafted away, but there was no fishy smell at all.

Hu Jiameng skillfully flipped the fish sticks on the iron frame, and at the same time sprinkled the seasonings he mixed evenly on the fish sticks. His movements were as skillful as the masters who set up stalls on the street. If Qiao Bang didn't know that Hu Songtao was Hu Jiameng His father thought that Hu Jiameng came from the Pao Ding family.

The sky gradually darkened, and night soon fell. Two crescent moons were looming in the sky, and the sight gradually became dim. Except for the dazzling light from a few bonfires on the river beach, the river water also appeared extremely turbid under the dark night.

In less than a while, Hu Jiameng finished grilling the fish strips, and the aroma attracted a crowd of boatmen to gather around. I have to say that Hu Jiameng’s craftsmanship is really good. The fish skin is fragrant with pepper, and the crispy fish skin and firm meat fit together. At the same time, the fish is tender and compact, with moderate fat and thinness. These are not compliments, but the comments made by a salivating boatman when he took the grilled fish from Hu Jiameng.

"Little brother, what are you doing? Why don't you come to our Sun's house? There are not many cooks like you who can cook delicious food. You report the number, and I will talk to the steward. You will live in Haosheng on our cargo ship." , Delicious and delicious!" The boatman was not satisfied, licked his oily lips, patted Hu Jiameng's shoulder, almost took the meat skewer in Hu Jiameng's hand, and said carelessly.

"Oh, no need to hey, I went to Jinyang City to join relatives. His family opened a restaurant, and I went to save the situation. It turned out that the cook quit." Hu Jiameng was talking nonsense, but his hands kept moving. , Just now the fish meat was in contact with the flames for a while, the meat quality may be a little bit burnt, but I am not annoyed, I plan to give this skewer of grilled fish to Ren Ziyu, who told him not to deal with himself at ordinary times!

"Hey! It's a pity. If you are a big guy on our cargo ship, you will have a happier life. It's a pity that you will not be able to enjoy your craft in the future." The boatman said regretfully, feeling melancholy.

"Don't, you cut up the processed fish and bring it here. I'll bake it for you to eat. As the saying goes, meeting is fate. Since we have known each other for a while, let's have a good time together!" It's a good time to work hard to benefit other companions and make this voyage more comfortable.

"Little brother, I take your words seriously. I'll let the other brothers bring the fish!" The boatman continued the conversation in disbelief. He didn't expect Hu Jiameng to express his opinion so readily.

"Go, go, it doesn't take much effort to grill these fish." Hu Jiameng smiled slightly, raised her head and replied, then continued to work hard, focusing on the meat skewers in her hands. Mental power consumption is really nothing, it should be regarded as concentration training.

"Okay, okay, it's a happy character, throw me my temper!" The boatman laughed loudly, striding back, and after a while, he brought a large group of people around. Hu Jiameng looked up and was startled. A dozen or so boatmen brought more than 20 river fish over, some of them were processed and some were not. They stared at him eagerly, and Hu Jiameng suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

However, the quality of the boatman was not bad, there was no scrambling, and none of Qiaobang’s people urged him to stand by quietly, helping Hu Jiameng cut meat into skewers. This scene reminded Qiaobang of the spirit beast garden. That night, Kevin Yu and himself described how delicious roast chicken was.

All of this was seen by Sun Jianwei, but he didn't say anything to interfere. Delivery is a boring job, and it's good to make the boatman happy and relax.

Hu Jiameng listened to the buzzing discussions around. It turned out that the taste of the boatman's grilled fish was almost the same. He just rubbed some salt on the surface of the fish and grilled it. The taste was naturally not as good as Hu Jiameng's sufficient seasoning.But Hu Jiameng knew in his heart that the taste of this grilled fish was not only because of the seasoning, but mainly because of the delicious meat. In late spring and early summer, river fish are not very old, and the tender meat quality is the key to delicious grilled fish factor.

Listening to the boatman talking about his travel experience, Qiaobang and his party did not say a word, but listened with pricked ears, and heard some unknown history.

It turns out that some fishermen lived on the floodplain of the river, and their life was very inconvenient. Fishermen had to rely on light boats to get from one end of the river to the other. Swing away, it takes a lot of effort to reach the destination.

For the convenience of life, the fishermen saved more than [-] miles of walking across the river. With the joint efforts of [-] fishermen, a solid pontoon bridge was built on the turbulent water, which was firmly fixed by hemp rope, which greatly facilitated the local people. the lives of the people.

But the good times didn't last long. Baiyangzong inspected the provinces and found a pontoon bridge here. He immediately reprimanded and questioned all the fishermen on the grounds of building a pontoon bridge privately, and charged them with unwarranted charges. Zong's people not only demolished the pontoon bridge, but also destroyed the houses built by fishermen. It has been seven or eight years.

No one knows how big a crime these [-] fishermen committed, nor whose cake was touched. A group of fishermen who were not well-to-do survived along the banks of the river, but now they have been beaten back to their original shape, and never turned back. Don't let the wind and waves come.

When Qiaobang and his party heard this, they felt that there was an unknown fire in their hearts, but they kept their faces on the surface, and continued to listen patiently to the boatman telling the rumors on the Kurumos River. Qiaobang felt like crows in the world. Hei, whether it is the Jialuo royal family or the Loulan royal family, the Luo family or the Li family, once they reach the peak of power, they can judge at will regardless of the lives of the people in the sky. Human life is like duckweed in water, and a gust of wind and waves can extinguish the bottom.

The kinder the heart, the more suffering there will be, and the more correct the actions, the more tiring the life will be.

His thoughts drifted away, and Qiao Bang could no longer listen to the complaints and complaints of the boatmen. These complaints were nothing more than the appearance of struggling to survive in an unfair world. It's that the bitterness in the hearts of thousands of people cannot be poured out, but they have been heard over and over again by themselves.

The aroma of grilled fish filled the air, the night was completely shrouded, and the outline of the cargo ship was reflected by the bonfire, as if it was bordered with a circle of fiery red.The noise of the boatman broke the silence of this piece of heaven and earth, and the bonfire swayed with the river wind, splashing on the gravel and crackling.

Seven or eight years of hard work can erase the traces of a large group of fishermen living here.

Qiao Bang realizes that this does not seem to be an isolated case, but just a microcosm of the era of the Loulan Dynasty.

It is a situation that cannot be changed by myself and a dozen people.

The more tired I feel in my heart, the more clearly I understand that if the desire hidden in everyone's heart cannot be awakened, it is impossible to stimulate the true knowledge of the nation.

In the Loulan Dynasty, Qiao Bang recalled the various experiences of the Jialuo Empire, and felt that although the cultures and customs of the two countries were different, the injustice was deeply rooted and difficult to eradicate.

Looking at the group of boatmen who were grabbing and chewing the meat skewers, he felt more and more that they were a group of hard-working people who were enjoying themselves while suffering.

"What are you thinking about?" A sudden voice sounded, Qiao Bang raised his head and saw Qiu Wuhui coming to him holding two meat skewers, squatting down, speaking fluent Loulan language, looking at him curiously, his eyes illuminated by the firelight The child exudes twinkling fluorescence, which is very beautiful.

"No...it's nothing..." Qiaobang's knowledge of Loulan was really limited, so he could only reply stutteringly.

"Come on, the freshly baked fish fillet has no thorns, so eat it with confidence!" Qiu Wuhui joked with a smile, and shook a skewer in front of her, smiling lightly.

"Yeah... um... delicious!" His thoughts were interrupted, but Qiao Bang thanked Qiu Wuhui, only she could see that she was preoccupied, maybe she shouldn't think too much.

These are not things I should consider at this stage...

It should be, and I can only comfort myself like this...

The two crescent moons in the dark night sky became more and more clear, but the incomplete moon seemed to fill Qiao Bang's empty heart.

At this moment, he missed the experience of that night in the spirit beast garden, and the days of being so happy around the bonfire with no distracting thoughts.

Can I eradicate the evil in this world one by one?
