The heavy rain on the first day washed away Wanghaitai.

On both sides of the stone steps, there are several clusters of fresh trees. I wonder if it is because they were washed by the rain yesterday. Under the clear sky at this moment, even the leaves are showing their new greenness.

The unknown light green is spreading quietly all over the mountains and plains, like a faint watercolor smearing on the horizon.

At this moment, Duan Fei was bending down to throw the long cloth that Feng Po had thrown towards him, and it was hardening section by section.

After the entire piece of cloth was hardened, Duan Fei stopped his hand. The hardened piece of cloth fell to the ground with a sound, and it maintained its original shape after a long time.

Duan Fei smiled happily, took his luck again, and shouted "Conquer!"

The cloth suddenly softened and was about to fall to the ground. Duan Fei raised his leg and kicked a section of the soft cloth into the air. He then flew under the cloth and turned over in a series. The wind lifted the whole linen cloth and floated it.

toward the air.

Zhuo Zhan ran over and supported Duan Fei's back with both hands and jumped up. With luck in his palms when facing the flying long cloth, the long cloth instantly froze into steps one by one, extending step by step into the sky.

"Duan Fei!" Zhuo Zhan turned around and shouted, and the two of them quickly ran to the top of the ice steps one after the other. When they reached the top, they looked at each other and jumped down.

Zhuo Zhan turned around and shouted: "Dispose!" The ice stage state was instantly released, and Changbu returned to its original state.

Zhuo Zhan reached out and grabbed a corner of the long cloth and turned it over with force. By luck again, the long cloth was frozen again.

This time, a winding slide was frozen under their feet. The two of them stood on it and slid down, having a great time.

Feng Po, who was looking relaxed, smiled as he watched the two brothers enjoying themselves during practice.

Although I was used to watching them play this kind of joyful game, I still found it incredible to find a new way of playing. He turned sideways and said to Uncle Xun who was pouring tea: "These two little guys are interesting, they are both rare.

Jade!"

Uncle Xun nodded: "Hahaha, I have been in Yang Mansion for so many years, and I have seen generals and apprentices. I know how much you like them. But it is really rare. In just a few days, 'disintegration' has come to them."

It’s just like a daily meal.”

Xun then pointed to the distance: "That Duan Fei, after only a few days of practice, his martial arts has improved to such an extent that he can master the hardening skill, and maintaining the time and hand-off form are no longer a problem.

And that Zhuo Zhan can already change the frozen shape at will, and the interval between state changes is also very short. I remember that it took General Feng two years to master it to this extent."

"They are different, which is why I am willing to spend half a day every day to teach them. These two people will become people who shock the world in the future. I am not exaggerating at all when I say this."

Feng Po took the tea handed to him by Xun Bo, took a sip, and looked at the two brothers practicing martial arts not far away with admiration.

"Yes, that Duan Fei is really good. He has a handsome appearance and a good frame. His skills and reaction speed can compete with those of the active Nanshan feudal generals."

Uncle Xun squinted his eyes, stroked his beard, and praised Duan Fei with a smile. If he had a daughter of the right age, he would want to go to matchmaking for her right away.

"Duan Fei is very powerful, but I think Zhuo Zhan is more terrifying than him." Feng Po said seriously, "Although Zhuo Zhan's skills are not as good as Duan Fei's, but..." Feng Po paused.

"You are talking about his amazing witchcraft power," Xun Bo continued.

"It's not all..." Feng Po frowned and shook his head, "There is also that wise mind and calm mood, and maybe, the hidden pattern in his heart... you have all those things that I came over to talk about this morning.

Did you hear it?"

Xun Bo raised his head and laughed: "Haha, I could clearly hear the third princess's shouting from under the balcony. But I really didn't expect that the prisoner we had used so many torture instruments and still couldn't understand would be tortured by that kid Zhuo Zhan.

It took only a few words to find out. Not to mention the identity of the blond-faced man, who had his head cut off. How could he find out his identity so easily?"

"Hey... when they asked me to open the door of the case library yesterday, I didn't pay much attention. I didn't expect them to find out. I have seen countless people, but I have never seen such a person." Xun Bo sighed.

"Now I understand my original intention of keeping them, but our Yangfu pond is small, how can we trap such a dragon." Feng Po said with emotion.

"Oh, by the way, the 'Prisoner's Dilemma' I mentioned, you can tell Hei Yao to add it to the regulations of the Torture Department. There is also the renovation of the docket library. You should supervise it personally and do what I said.

."

"The old man has his orders."

Xun Bo slightly bent over and bowed, but when he stood up, he saw Chi Huan, dressed in fiery red, running happily towards him. However, she did not come to Feng Po to say hello, but ran straight to Zhuo Zhan and Duan Fei.

"Haha, this girl, when she has new friends, she forgets about you and me." Feng Po shook his head helplessly.

"Brother Fengpo, who are you talking about? I am not such a heartless person."

Just as he was talking, Chi was already walking towards Zhuo Zhan and Duan Fei.

Chi walked to the tea table, poured three cups of tea, turned around and handed it to Zhuo Zhan and Duan Fei, and drank the cup himself.

"Brother Fengpo, I said you are too serious and don't even give you a day off?"

"Well, it's my fault. Who was jealous in the first place and said I was partial? Practicing martial arts requires perseverance. Perseverance every day is different from fishing for three days and drying nets for two days. What's more, I

They are only trapped for half a day, don't they have plenty of time in the afternoon and evening?" Feng Po said to himself tactfully.

"I kindly want to give them a break... Hey! How about this? How about we have a big meal today, so we can celebrate Zhuo Zhan's outstanding performance yesterday, okay?"

Chi screamed suddenly, and although Zhuo Zhan was used to her occasional startles, he was still startled.

"Then let's have a barbecue and go."

Duan Fei has been feeling very depressed these past few days. There is no internet or mobile phone here. He has been practicing hard all day long. He really wants to relax and unwind.

"Zhuangzi is going crazy with joy knowing this. If he doesn't take a break, he will almost turn into a bitter melon. His training intensity is much greater than the two of us."

"Okay, all the restaurants have barbecue grills and so on. I'll ask Aunt Jiang to tell Xi Niang that we'll start eating in the afternoon! Let's just sit here on the sea view terrace. The view here is wide and the scenery is good."

Chi turned his face, shook Feng Po's arm and said coquettishly: "Brother Feng Po, how about we come together, just for this day..."

"Okay, okay, I'll obey you. If I don't obey you, can you let me go, haha... But we agreed that after all this trouble, we will clean up this holy land of my practice."

Feng Po looked at Chi with a doting look on his face. He had no younger siblings, but he regarded Chi Shu's younger sister as his own, and his level of indulgence was simply outrageous.

"Moreover, since Zhuangzi is here, let's have Amber come too. There are so many people and there's so much fun, and there's Duan Yue and Sister Xueyan, haha, I feel happy just thinking about it!" Red Eyebrow said with a cheerful smile.

"Okay, okay, okay." Feng Po agreed repeatedly, nodding his head like a chicken pecking at rice.

"We're going to play poker together tonight. Brother Feng Po, you don't even know how fun that game in China is!" Chi seemed to have planned it in advance and had arranged the evening's program.

"We won't play poker today, there are more fun things, right, Uncle Xun?" Zhuo Zhan said mysteriously, and winked at Uncle Xun.

Xun Bo understood and immediately nodded in agreement.

It turns out that last night, when Uncle Xun went to Zhuo Zhan to discuss the size of the bamboo slips, Duan Fei and Zhuangzi were also there. He was forced to beg Zhuangzi to make two sets of mahjong. He estimated that the craftsmen in the treasury would be able to do it this afternoon.

"By the way, Uncle Xun, I would also like to trouble you to ask someone to make hundreds of bamboo sticks for us to use for barbecue." Duan Fei said.

"There is an oven, why do you need bamboo skewers?" Chi asked confused.

"You don't understand this. Meat skewered on bamboo skewers is particularly fragrant when grilled. In our hometown, this way of eating is called 'skewering'." Zhuo Zhan explained quickly.

"Really, it's super delicious, just enjoy it!" Duan Fei said mysteriously.

Throughout noon, no one among the excited group took a lunch break.

The preparations for the barbecue party were quite tedious. Everyone participated. Even Amber, who had no intention of having fun, was sent to chop bamboo sticks.

Chi was so excited that he had to personally ask about everything, for fear of missing something.

**********

The Wanghai Terrace, which had been pristine and solemn in the morning, was now filled with white smoke. With the barbecue grill set up, the original fairyland was gone, and it turned into a picnic sanctuary.

Nanshan's oven is very unique, with the four corners tilted upward. This design not only prevents oil juice from dripping along the oven when cooking meat, but also creates a natural air vent, allowing the meat to cook faster.

Zhuangzi, a foodie and potential cook apprentice, was shirtless, with a towel tied around his neck. He was waving the cattail leaf fan in his hand with one hand, and was flipping the meat skewers on the charcoal fire with interest with the other hand, humming in his mouth.

The Cantonese version of the theme song of "Country Love".

A row of densely spread meat skewers makes a "sizzling" sound under the high temperature. The hot oil slowly slides down the fat and thin pieces of meat, and drips onto the red-hot charcoal and sizzles.

A wisp of green smoke.

Then brush it with bean paste and sprinkle with freshly ground Sichuan peppercorns and sesame seeds. The ecstatic spice flavor is entwined with the aroma of meat, which can arouse gluttons in a second.

After the first batch of meat skewers was grilled, Zhuangzi distributed the skewers to everyone one by one, keeping a small handful for himself and eating the whole one.

As soon as the meat is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, the smooth and tender meat, and the aroma of charred barbecue captures the taste buds, and the rich aroma of meat rushes straight to the forehead.

"It's delicious! But it would be even better if there were chili powder and cumin powder. It's a pity that you don't have it here..."

Zhuangzi stuffed his mouth full of meat, and while chewing, he talked to Amber about the wonderful uses of chili powder and cumin powder.

The first wave of meat skewers had just been wiped out, and the second wave of wings, eggs, offal, and vegetable skewers filled the stove.

Everyone had not been so relaxed for a long time. Everyone was inspired by the joyful atmosphere of the barbecue. Even Duan Yue and Jiang Xueyan, who had always been light-eating, couldn't help but eat several skewers of meat.

Feng Po was used to being busy all day long, so he was so excited to have such a lively party unexpectedly. He directly moved the jar of Suxin wine in front of him, scooped the wine into a big bowl, and took a sip of wine and a mouthful of meat. He was so happy.

Everyone was eating and making noise like this until the sun went down, then the "battlefield" was cleared, but not long after, a new "battlefield" of mahjong was set up in the back hall.

**********

There happened to be two sets of mahjong placed on two tables side by side. Amber was also invited to join in, while Xun Bo was served with various teas and fruits inside and outside.

Zhuo Zhan, Chi, Feng Po and Jiang Xueyan are at the table.

Duan Fei, Duan Yue, Zhuangzi, and Amber are at the table.

Zhuangzi finished explaining the rules of mahjong with great enthusiasm, and everyone hurriedly built the Great Wall, pushed tiles, stacked tiles, and competed endlessly.

The newly made bamboo mahjong exudes the green and wet smell of moso bamboo, and the carvings on it still have some rough edges, but no one cares about these anymore. Everyone is immersed in the exquisiteness and fun of mahjong.

At the mahjong table at this time, there are no distinctions between superiors and subordinates, men and women, high and low, and even skills most of the time have to give way to luck. Everyone is playing the game carefully with infatuating greed and caution, enjoying the alluring charm of mahjong.
