Li Shimin

Chapter 596 Chili!

And Li Xuan felt relieved.

As long as there are traces of local aboriginal activities around, he is at ease.

Because if you want to find things like sweet potatoes, corn, and potatoes, you can only find them from these local aborigines.

At night, everyone returned to the big ship to sleep.

Everyone got up early the next day.

At the same time, Li Xuan sent another hundred scouts to search outside.

After coming out of the Japanese kingdom, he sent a blueprint of the pictures of sweet potatoes, corn, and potatoes to each ship, so that all soldiers and crew members had to look at them carefully every five days.

After such a long time, each of these soldiers and crew members can draw the appearance of sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn with their eyes closed, and even recite the growth environment and conditions of these three objects.

In the evening, the soldiers who had been sent out returned again.

Another river of gold was found.

At the same time, a team of scouts found clues to a town.

The natives of the surrounding villages, there will always be a few people, carrying some things, heading in one direction.

In the evening, I will return again.

So, Li Xuan ordered that only 1000 soldiers were left on board, and then he took another more than [-] soldiers, armed with enough arrows, bombs, and some salt, and started to move in the direction the scout team said. .

Finally, after walking for half a day, they saw the first village.

There are only a dozen or so houses here and there.

These houses were built with tree branches and hay that Tang had never seen before.

"My lord, do we want to wipe out these villages?"

Standing behind a hill, Li Xuan, Xue Rengui and the others stared at the village for a long time with clairvoyance.

Because he didn't know what Li Xuan meant, Xue Rengui asked tentatively.

"Need not!"

Li Xuan said quickly.

He had already seen that the surrounding soldiers, following Xue Rengui's words, had already started to take out their bows and arrows, with a murderous look on their faces.

"I'm just here to find the sweet potatoes, not to kill."

"Come on, I'll go into the village and have a look!"

"Into the village?"

Xue Rengui, Cheng Chusi and others were startled.

"I seem to have found something good!"

Li Xuan said with a happy face.

"good stuff?"

Hearing this, Xue Rengui, Cheng Chusi and the others on the side also had joyful faces.

"go!"

Li Xuan didn't answer, but stood up directly and walked towards the village.

Behind him, Xue Rengui quickly brought a group of personal guards to protect Li Xuan.

Before walking a few steps, the natives in that village also spotted the army.

Suddenly, with a face full of horror, he began to shout around.

Soon, the aborigines of the entire village gathered in the village, looking at the huge army coming from a distance, with despair on their faces.

More than 1000 soldiers in full armor, armed with horse lances or long knives, were a natural disaster for this small village with less than a hundred people including children.

By the time Li Xuan and the others reached the village, there were already some timid natives paralyzed on the ground in fright.

After a while, an old man tremblingly walked in front of Li Xuan.

Looking at these troops whose skin and appearance were different from theirs, the old man suddenly widened, his eyes even more desperate.

Immediately, with a plop, he knelt down in front of Li Xuan.

A lot of chatter.

Everyone didn't understand, but seeing the pleading expression on the old man's face, Li Xuan could guess that the old man must be begging for mercy.

In this regard, Li Xuan chuckled lightly, making the old man's expression slightly relaxed.

Immediately, he walked towards a hut beside him.

Under everyone's surprised eyes, he took down a bunch of red plants with his hands.

Red body, pointed horns, green stem.

"Master, what is this?"

Cheng Chusi, who had been following behind him, asked curiously.

"It should be chili!"

With a chuckle, Li Xuan gently grabbed the next one, wiped it with his hand, put it in his mouth, and took a bite.

"hiss……"

Immediately, Li Xuan felt a hot smell spread all over his body, and his forehead was faintly sweating.

He couldn't help but be overjoyed. After so many years, he finally had a mouthful of pure spicy taste.

Immediately, he quickly took out the kettle and drank a few mouthfuls of water.

However, there was still a breath.

"Master?"

"Your Majesty?"

On the side, Cheng Chusi, Xue Rengui and others all looked nervous.

"I'm fine, this chili is delicious, do you want to try it?"

Li Xuan said with a smile all over his face.

"Master, let me have a taste!"

A trace of curiosity flashed in Cheng Chusi's eyes, and he stretched out his hand, ready to pick the bunch of peppers in Li Xuan's hand.

Li Xuan quickly withdrew his hands, and said angrily, "This chili is so precious, how can it be wasted, eat this!"

Saying that, he bit off a small chili pepper and handed it to Cheng Chusi.

"This chili tastes much hotter than cornel, so bite less!"

"Master, don't worry, it's just chili, I like spicy food the most!"

Cheng Chusi looked indifferent.

However, when he opened his mouth, he was still a little scrupulous and didn't bite too much.

Li Xuan, on the other hand, looked at Cheng Chusi expectantly, the little bastard actually bit so much in one bite!

Cheng Chusi just chewed it twice, his eyes widened, and he spat.

At the same time, he quickly took out the water bottle on his body and filled it with his big mouth.

"Hiss...Master...hiss...why is this pepper so hot...hiss..."

After speaking, Cheng Chusi took another big gulp into his mouth.

This time, it was already full of shouts.

Seeing this, Li Chengqian, Xue Rengui and others couldn't help gloating.

At the same time, looking at the bunch of peppers in Li Xuan's hand, he was a little curious but also a little apprehensive.

Around, those natives were all smiling.

"Who told you, you bastard, to bite so much in one bite!"

Li Xuan sneered, then turned to look at Li Chengqian and the others.

"When you eat this kind of chili for the first time, you can only take a small bite at most. Whoever wants to taste it, come and get the chili."

Li Chengqian, Li Baoding and the others took the chili pepper and carefully took a small bite, not as big as a fingernail.

But even so, it is also a hot straight inhalation.

"Come here, bring a small bottle of refined salt!"

Li Xuan raised his head again and shouted.

"Yes!"

Soon, one of the guards held a glass bottle smaller than a fist, which was full of fine salt.

Immediately, all the natives looked at the bottle in shock.

They had never seen such a beautiful little bottle.

After Li Xuan took the small bottle of salt, he walked to the side of the old man.

Then, in front of the old man whose eyes were already glued to the glass bottle, he slowly unscrewed the glass bottle.

Stretch out your index finger, lightly dip some salt, put it in your mouth and taste it.

Then, he stretched out the bottle of salt in front of the old man, motioning the old man to learn from him.

Seeing this, the old man didn't dare to refuse, carefully imitating Li Xuan's movements, dipped some salt, and just put it in his mouth.

Suddenly, there was an exclamation.

Immediately, with an excited expression, he kowtowed to Li Xuan and murmured.

Similarly, the group of natives behind them were all excited, and their eyes were fixed on the bottle of refined salt in Li Xuan's hand.

Li Xuan chuckled, and then slowly screwed on the bottle cap!
Then, he handed the glass bottle to the old man, and pointed to the glass bottle, then to the bunch of peppers in his hand, and the peppers hanging on the surrounding huts.
