Chapter 106 Entering An County

Ada and his companions traveled for seven consecutive days, covering a distance of almost five hundred miles from Zhennanguan to Anjun, changing three carriages in the middle.

Before arriving at the county town of Anjun, Shi Wu saw from the window of the carriage that the fields along the road were lined with rows of mature cotton, which looked like a sea of ​​white. Many people were picking and working in the fields. It looked like

Qin will have another bumper harvest of cotton this year.

Shi Wu looked at the people working hard in the fields and asked Ah Si: "Uncle Fourth, are everyone growing cotton here?"

Ah Si replied: "Anjun is a large county in the Qin State. It has a dense population and the land is particularly suitable for growing cotton. Cotton that grows annually in other places can grow twice a year here. With this advantage, Anjun became a

Qin State deserves to be the hometown of cotton."

Shi Wu nodded and sighed: "Sure enough, we have to make good use of our advantages."

It was noon, and the sun was shining brightly. Ah Si and the others got off the carriage at Anjun Post Station. After paying the fare, Ah Si suggested staying at an inn in the city for one night to have a good rest, and then go up to Luoxia Peak tomorrow.

Ah Da and Shi Wu had no objection to this. After all, Ah Si was more familiar with this place, and Ah Si was leading the whole journey. At this time, Ah Si's appearance had not changed, and many women would stop and watch as they walked along the road, and even some

He will also follow them secretly.

There was only Yu Jin in Ah Si's heart, and he took all the glances calmly. Shi Wuke was different. He really felt that his fourth uncle shouldn't be a Wuyougu killer, and it shouldn't be too easy to choose a consort.

Later, he thought that Yu Jin was a princess, and if Ah Si married Yu Jin, he would really be a consort. Thinking of this, Shi Wu burst into laughter alone. Ah Si looked at Shi Wu and asked him where he was.

What are you laughing at? Shi Wu repeatedly waved his hands and said it was nothing, he just remembered some interesting things. Seeing Shi Wu's teasing expression, Ah Si knew that he definitely didn't mean anything good, so he stopped asking.

Ah Si walked all the way through the streets and led Ah Da and the others to an inn called Anyuan. This inn was considered to be a mid-range one in Anjun City, and it was not located in the lively main street. Ah Si didn’t want to go too far.

Swagger, and secondly, I also wanted Ah Da and the others to have a good rest.

The waiter at the Anyuan Inn was a fair and chubby young man. When he saw the handsome Ah Si and the others coming in, he quickly greeted them and said, "Are the three guests working in the hotel or staying in the hotel?"

Ah Si said: "We want to have lunch here first, and then you can help us open two connected upper rooms."

After hearing this, the waiter in the shop said diligently: "Okay, you guys go inside first."

With that said, the waiter went ahead to clean the tables and stools for them. When Ah Si and the three of them sat down, the waiter asked: "What would the three guests want to eat? The chef in our restaurant is best at northern cuisine. What kind of ginseng?"

Steam pot chicken, braised pork vermicelli, three delicacies, big bones with secret sauce, etc. are all one of a kind.”

Shi Wu was afraid of the food served at the Jinguo Inn at that time, so he asked: "Is the ginseng steam pot chicken in your inn hot enough?"

Seeing that Shi Wu was still a connoisseur of food at a young age, the waiter said: "Don't worry, young master, our ginseng steam pot chicken is sold more than ten times a day, so we start to cook it on a low heat before noon."

It’s simmered, and the heat is guaranteed to be enough. Now that the winter solstice has passed, drink one or two bowls of that chicken soup. It’s really delicious, nourishing and invigorating.”

When Shi Wu heard this, he said: "Then I want to eat ginseng steam pot chicken."

Ah Si said to the waiter: "Please have one of the four things you just mentioned, and three bowls of rice by the way."

Upon hearing this, the waiter said happily: "Okay, sir, would you like some wine? We have Anjun's special rice flower rice wine, which is a kind of sweet rice wine."

Ah Si asked Ah Dao: "Uncle, do you want to drink?"

Ah Da shook his head and said, "I never drink."

Shi Wu knew what he looked like after drinking, so he quickly refused: "Fourth uncle, don't look at me. I get drunk as soon as I drink, and I am also wasting good wine."

Ah Si had no choice but to say: "Forget it, just help us pour a pot of tea."

The waiter responded and went to the counter to tell the shopkeeper that after the three guests had finished eating, they wanted two more rooms. The shopkeeper smiled and said he understood, and then let the waiter get busy.

Shi Wu put his hands on the table and didn't know what he was thinking about. It wasn't until the waiter came over with three bowls of rice and ground delicacies that he picked up his chopsticks and started eating. Soon after, the waiter cooked pork stewed vermicelli and big bones with secret sauce.

It was served.

Shi Wu picked up a large soybean paste bone without being too hot and started to nibble on it. He felt that the only difference between the soybean paste bone here and the one made by his father was the sauce. The one here was equally delicious and the meat was firm when biting into it.

, it becomes crispy and delicious after chewing.

Ah Si and Ah Da are not as picky as Shi Wu. They eat slowly and deliciously.

When they were halfway through eating, the waiter brought the ginseng steam-pot chicken. Shi Wu first helped Ah Da fill a bowl of it and let it sit there, and then served himself a bowl.

When Ah Si saw it, he complained: "Ah Nuan, why don't you help Fourth Uncle fill a bowl?"

Shi Wu originally wanted to help Ah Si with the soup, but when he saw the woman at the door watching Ah Si come in, he immediately changed his mind and said: "Fourth Uncle, you only need to shout, and there will be plenty of people to help you with the soup."

Ah Si felt dizzy when he saw the women at the door, so he had to lower his head and eat his food by himself.

When the waiter saw a number of women suddenly arriving at his inn, and it seemed they were not here for dinner, he stepped forward and asked, "Who are you?"

A beautiful woman with a silk scarf in her hand said: "Let's go, don't disturb us from watching the pretty boy."

When the waiter wanted to ask more questions, the four girls who came with the beautiful woman all spoke out and drove the waiter away.

The shopkeeper saw that they were the daughters of several nearby families and were considered acquaintances, so he asked the waiter to go with them. Anyway, there were not many customers now, so it was okay to sit there for a while.

Ah Da picked up a piece of chicken and asked, "Ah Si, you haven't thought about changing your appearance or anything like that? How can Yu Jin feel at ease with you like this?"

Ah Si said helplessly: "This is what Yujin asked for. She said that in addition to doing tasks, she wants me to be like this now."

Shi Wu chewed the sauce bone in his hand and said, "Aunt Yujin is really big-hearted."

"That's because she has confidence in me." Ah Si snorted at Shi Wu.

Shi Wu didn't care about this, and carefully chewed on the big bone with soy sauce in his hand. As he ate it, he discovered that he liked the big bone with soy sauce here more.

Just when Ah Da and the others were almost finished eating, Ah Si helped himself to a bowl of soup, and after spreading it in the bowl, he began to taste it slowly.

The pretty girl holding the silk scarf seemed to be encouraged by the girls next to her. She stepped forward and said, "Sir, this little girl is being polite."

Ah Si put down the bowl in his hand and asked, "Is something wrong?"

The woman looked at Ah Si lovingly and said, "Is the young master getting married?"

Ah Si was stunned when he heard this. He had always appeared with an ugly face in the past, and would never have been in a situation like this. He replied: "Although we are not married, we have fallen in love with someone."

When the beautiful woman heard this, her eyes turned red and she covered her face with a silk scarf. When the other women saw the woman leaving crying, they also caught up to comfort her.

Shi Wu couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said: "Fourth uncle, you are really hurting people with your face. It's awesome!"

A Dadu glanced at Shi Wu and said, "Eat your food."

Shi Wu said oh and looked at Ah Si with a smile, and then continued to eat all the food in the bowl.

After lunch, Ah Da paid the bill with the money he and Ah Si earned when they were attendants, which was the one hundred taels that Yu Jin gave her on the winter solstice. Speaking of which, Yu Jin's handiwork was unprecedented. She only used one hundred taels.

With only two silver coins, two innate warriors were recruited as followers. Anyone who said this would give Yu Jin a thumbs up.

In the room, Shi Wu asked the waiter for some pen and ink, and started writing a diary on the empty pages of his father's recipe book. However, Shi Wu's diary was very special. He wrote from now forward, and only then did he write down the hope.

That part of the desert. The descriptions about the Scorpion Fairy Old Woman and the Red Fire King Scorpion are particularly exaggerated, because they won in the end, so the skills of the Red Fire King Scorpion and the Scorpion Fairy Old Woman are whatever they are. It can make them appear even more powerful anyway.

Ah Da gently wiped the moonlight in the guqin box. Now he calmed down and thought about it. The owner of the guqin shop really didn't lie to them. After closing the guqin box, he was really invulnerable to water and fire. At that time, he was so sneaky in the Dongjiang River.

The water didn't even soak in for a long time. He looked at Yiyue and thought of Ah Jiu again. He was thinking about where she was now and whether she was living well. He had told Lao Xu that if something happened to him, he would save the money to buy his life.

Just give it all to Ah Jiu. If Ah Jiu gets his life money, it will be enough for her to leave the valley and change her identity to start a new life. But Ah Da asked Ah Si if he had ever seen a contact person named Lao Xu, but Ah Si said

I had never heard of it, let alone seen it. This made Ada even more worried.

Ah Si was lying alone in the room. He raised the black jade hairpin in his hand very high, as if he was looking at Yu Jin. Next to him was a century-old ginseng that Xu Shan had given him at that time. When he went back this time, he only needed to

You can save enough money to buy your life by taking on one or two tasks. He didn't tell Yujin what wish he made on the night of Xinghui night. In fact, he wanted to tell her in person when his wish came true after he came out of the valley.

The three of them rested in the room in the afternoon and did not go out again. Ah Si was afraid that his current appearance would cause unnecessary trouble, so even dinner was eaten in the room with Ah Da and the others. Maybe it was because he was too full at noon.

They had a very light dinner. After eating, Ah Si told Ah Da that to enter Wuyou Valley now, you need to pass through a temple called Leiyan Temple on Luoxia Peak. The abbot there is similar to the gatekeeper of Wuyou Valley. Only by getting his

After confirmation, the door of the valley entrance can be opened. Otherwise, if you want to enter Wuyou Valley, you can only climb over the cliff next to it.

Ah Da was puzzled: "Wuyou Valley used to be where the natural chasm was, and we were not afraid of being attacked by any decent people. Why should we build a Leiyan Temple now and send people to guard the gate there?"

Ah Si said: "I don't know. I also passed there when I first entered the valley. Every time I went there, I would say hello to the abbot, Master Lei Jue, but he didn't seem to see me and just opened the door for me.

I jumped down and never said a word to me."

Shi Wu didn't hear anything about their incompetence. He only heard the words "jump down." He asked curiously: "Fourth uncle, where are you jumping to?"

Ah Si said naturally: "Jump off the back cliff of Luoxia Peak."

Shi Wu was shocked and said, "Didn't you say that Luoxia Peak is more than a thousand feet tall?"

Ah Si said: "Yes, there are many mountains around Luoxia Peak, and it is the tallest among them. When you go up there, you can still see the rays of light in the sky surrounding it, as if it is falling on the mountain peak, so it is named Luoxia Peak."

Shi Wu became even more confused now: "Then how did you survive if you jumped?"

Only then did Ah Si realize that Ah Da had never told Shi Wu about the way to enter Wuyou Valley. He smiled and said, "It's okay. Fourth uncle will hold you and dance together. I guarantee it will be an eye-opener for you."

Shi Wu fearfully moved away from Ah Si and said, "I still trust my uncle Ah. If you accidentally let go, I won't have to go in and find a doctor."

Ah Si smiled evilly and said, "You have a good idea. If you fall to pieces, Doctor Gu will be more interested in treating you."
