Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 1905 Lamb Hotpot
The car slowly slowed down, and the surrounding scene changed from the bustling city to the suburbs.

The car drove east, out of the city, and then came to the foot of a mountain.

Here is the famous Purple Mountain.

In the co-pilot seat, Xiaobo explained the battle that took place here that year.

Telling the shame of that year.

Now that the revolution has succeeded, we can wait for the country to be safe.

Following the guidance of the car in front, Yang Xiaotao and his team ran for a distance and soon stopped in front of the foot of the mountain.

Yang Xiaotao looked through the window. It was pitch black outside and from time to time he could hear the sound of trees being blown by the wind.

Can't see the scene in the distance.

But Xiaowei on my chest was very happy.

Xiaowei's joyful voice came into my mind.

"Master, there are so many big trees outside."

“There are so many old trees.”

Xiaowei smiled, as if she couldn't wait to fly out and play.

"Wait, don't fly around."

Yang Xiaotao was not aware of what was going on here, "You can go and play after we reach the destination."

"咻咻~~~"

"I'm going to sleep here~~swoosh~~~"

Soon the car in front suddenly stopped, and Yang Xiaotao saw the young driver get out of the car and walk two steps forward.

Looking over there, Yang Xiaotao saw a big gate standing not far away, as if it was halfway up a mountain, leaning against the mountain and blending in seamlessly.

At the entrance of the academy, two sentries stood upright in the sentry box, their postures as unshakable as a sculpture.

Their eyes are alert and determined. Even if they see vehicles in the yard and the people getting off are acquaintances, they still check and register carefully. With this seriousness, they guard the silence and safety here.

Soon, the young man finished explaining the situation, and a sentry came to the front of the car.

"Comrade, please show me some proof."

The sentry's voice was cold and his face was serious.

Yang Xiaotao quickly handed over the certificate, and the sentry shone a flashlight on it to carefully check it, then Chen Chonghan's, and then the driver's.

After everyone had been checked, the sentry walked back to his original position and opened the door.

The car drove in slowly.

The college was quiet and solemn.

The moonlight was like silver, falling on the neatly arranged trees along the roadside. The leaves swayed gently in the breeze, making a rustling sound.

On the training ground in the distance, several groups of street lamps cast bright halos of light. Occasionally, students returning late would pass by in a hurry, and the sound of their footsteps seemed particularly clear in the quiet night.

The car was driving on the main road of the college. On both sides of the road, rows of blue brick buildings exuded a historical atmosphere. The window lattices reflected the hazy moonlight, looking quaint and solemn.

The light that occasionally shines through a room is the result of the on-duty personnel waiting or the diligence of the students working overtime.

'Study hard and defend the country.'

"Strive to build a modern and powerful national defense force."

Yang Xiaotao looked at the slogans on the wall as he passed by and read them softly.

Feeling in this kind of atmosphere, every word above gave him a sense of mission.

It was as if the blood in the body was awakened the moment it entered here.

squeak~
The car in front stopped again, and then Instructor Gao got out of the car and waved to everyone.

Yang Xiaotao knew he had arrived at his destination and got off the car carrying two cans of tea.

Hao Pingchuan and Xiaobo followed behind, looking at Yang Xiaotao with burning eyes.

Unfortunately, Yang Xiaotao no longer has the final say now.

Instructor Gao looked at everyone and then said to Yang Xiaotao, "Comrade Yang, the old dean is upstairs, please follow me."

After saying that, he looked at the others and said to the young man beside him, "Xiao Wu, take a few comrades to the yard next to you to rest."

"Yes!"

Several people felt disappointed after hearing this, but being able to come here and feel the atmosphere here gave them some comfort in their disappointment.

Yang Xiaotao nodded, then greeted Wang Hao and the others, and then followed Instructor Gao inside.

This is a stand-alone apartment.

After entering here, you can see guards standing on duty on both sides, and there are several mysterious auras around.

"This is where the old dean lives and where he works."

"A lot of valuable information is here, so don't wander around."

Instructor Gao warned as he walked.

There's no need to hide it, just say it directly.

Yang Xiaotao naturally understood what this meant, and he would not cause trouble.

The two walked into the door. The lights were on in the room and an electric fan was blowing.

After coming in, the two paused at the door for a moment, looking around, searching for the real owner.

Yang Xiaotao saw that the room was tidy and there wasn't too much clutter.

There was also a stack of newspapers on the table and a hand-held magnifying glass next to it.

On the side of the room, there is a map, a very large one that takes up the entire wall.

On the opposite side is a row of bookshelves filled with various books.

"Instructor Gao."

Just as Yang Xiaotao was looking at the books on the bookshelf, a crisp voice came from the side. The two looked and saw a short, well-proportioned young man walking out and greeting them with a smile.

"Secretary Guo, is the chief not here?"

Instructor Gao greeted him, and Secretary Guo smiled and said, "The commander is preparing dinner."

"You don't know, this time I did it myself, I cut the lamb by hand."

Secretary Guo said, then looked at Yang Xiaotao, "This must be Comrade Yang Xiaotao."

"welcome."

Secretary Guo extended his hand, and Yang Xiaotao quickly shook it. "Hello, Secretary Guo, I am Yang Xiaotao."

"I came in a hurry. Here are two cans of tea for the leader to try." Secretary Guo took it with a smile and put it aside.

At this time, a figure walked out from the side and said, "I heard your voices in the kitchen."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Xiaotao saw an old man wearing glasses walking out.

The old man was still wearing an apron, wiping water droplets off on it as he walked. His peaceful face as he spoke made him feel the spring breeze, and when he got closer and saw the occasional gleam in his eyes, he was reminded that he was an iron-blooded god of war.

"Chief!"

Instructor Gao started to shout.

Yang Xiaotao stepped forward quickly, his expression respectful, "Commander!"

The old man nodded to Instructor Gao first, then looked at Yang Xiaotao with a smile, and then nodded, "Not bad, you are in good spirits!"

"Come here, sit anywhere!"

The old man walked over and asked Secretary Guo to pour water and serve tea.

Yang Xiaotao smiled immediately, then sat aside.

The old man took off his apron, and Secretary Guo took it and went into the kitchen to continue working.

The three of them sat aside, Yang Xiaotao sat on the right hand side of the old man, and the old man picked up the brewed teapot and poured it for the two of them.

Then he saw two cans of tea on the table beside him. He opened one can and immediately smelled a fragrance. He then asked curiously, "Did you bring this?"

"It's rare to find such good tea."

Yang Xiaotao nodded immediately, then thought of something and quickly explained, "Commander, I am just offering this to you."

"Oh? How do you borrow it? Tell me about it."

Yang Xiaotao nodded and immediately explained, "Commander, we are here to attend the seminar of the Aviation College in Jinling."

"It's the helicopter seized in Shanghai. Let's study it."

"Well, since I helped solve the design of the suspense system, Vice President Cheng gave me these two cans of tea to thank me."

"I drink tea like water, and I thought of coming to your place, so I'll give it to you. Isn't this just like offering flowers to Buddha?"

After Yang Xiaotao finished speaking, the old man nodded.

"Since you're from Xiao Cheng, I won't be polite."

"You're welcome, you're welcome."

"By the way, why are you guys here so late? Come over at dinner time."

The old man asked in a friendly manner, just like chatting about family matters.

Senior Instructor at the side heard this and explained, "Commander, this time when we went to the Aviation Academy, Comrade Yang Xiaotao had already left. We later caught up with him and came back."

“And there were some minor incidents along the way.”

As Instructor Gao explained what happened, the old man's face became more serious. He then looked at Yang Xiaotao and said, "We can't be careless about safety."

"Revolutionary construction requires a useful body. Only with good health can we better build the revolution."

Yang Xiaotao nodded and said, "Don't worry, I believe that our comrades will not let go of those who are reversing history."

"Haha, good point."

While the two were talking, Secretary Guo had already prepared the food and came over to invite the three to take a seat.

"Come on, let's talk while we eat at the table."

The old man stood up and greeted them, and Yang Xiaotao and Instructor Gao hurried forward to follow.

When we arrived at the restaurant, a copper stove hot pot was burning in the room.

Maybe it was because we were halfway up the mountain, the wind outside the house was quite strong and the temperature inside the house was not high.

The hot pot was steaming, but you didn't feel hot sitting around it.

The old man sat down at the main seat, and then Instructor Gao and Secretary Guo sat beside him skillfully, holding spoons, plates and some dipping sauces in their hands, and it seemed that they had often accompanied the old man for meals.

Yang Xiaotao sat opposite the old man. He also had some hot pot sauces on hand, but they were all soy sauce, chili oil and the like. As for sesame sauce, beef sauce and the like, they were not seen here.

If we go to Sijiu City, Yang Xiaotao will be able to get everyone together.

"This hot pot dipping sauce is not much compared to the ones in Sijiu City, so you can just make do with what you have here."

As the old man spoke, Yang Xiaotao immediately smiled and said, "There are many ways to eat hot pot. There are light types, spicy types, mushroom types, and bone soup types, so the corresponding dipping sauces are also different. Ours is the light type, which is very good and you won't get tired of it even if you eat it a lot."

The three of them were listening to Yang Xiaotao's words. Secretary Guo showed a surprised expression, "I always thought that hot pot was just a pot. Putting the same things in it and then taking them out to eat was all hot pot. I didn't expect that after hearing you say this today, there are so many interesting things to chew on."

The old man asked casually, "What flavor do you like?"

Yang Xiaotao picked up the water cup and took a sip of water to moisten his throat. "Commander, I like to eat meat."

"As long as it's meat, any flavor is fine."

The old man laughed and shook his head, "You, this is not according to taste, this is according to the recipe."

Yang Xiaotao smiled and said, "I'm really hungry. I just had two mouthfuls of porridge in the morning and didn't have lunch. Then I thought about going to my comrade's house for a good meal. Now it's fine. Let's go straight to the hot pot. It's really, really good."

Instructor Gao had already set out the plates and chopsticks, preparing to cook the mutton hotpot. When he heard Yang Xiaotao say this, he asked, "The Aviation College provides meals, right?"

"Meals are provided, but I'm busy with work and don't have time to eat."

As he was talking, Yang Xiaotao had already picked up a piece of mutton and put it in the pot. The mutton was cut very thinly. After ten seconds, the meat had turned gray. He waited for a while before taking it out and putting it in the bowl. "I want to finish the task earlier this time so that I can go to Chaoyang as soon as possible."

"So I didn't eat, just finished the work and left."

After saying that, the meat had already entered his mouth.

"Then was the blueprint you designed successful?"

The old man asked with great interest.

"no problem."

“I have confidence in my design.”

Yang Xiaotao said this affirmatively, and the old man nodded with relief.

"I've asked you to come this time, but I'm afraid you won't be able to go to your comrade's house."

"It's okay. My colleague heard about this and came along. He said he can go home to his wife and kids anytime, but coming here is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

The three of them smiled knowingly after hearing this.

"You must be hungry. Eat more."

As the old man spoke, he handed over the mutton plate in front of him, and Secretary Guo passed it to Yang Xiaotao.

Yang Xiaotao was not polite. Since people were here, they had to eat.

Only when you are full can you do things better.
