After adding some seasoning to the soup, Zhou Ran certainly didn't want to taste it again. He suddenly found an excuse and slipped back to the front of the inn, where they were dining.
Zhou Ran, who had a guilty conscience, felt very happy when he thought about the fate of the woman in black veil. He even began to hum a little tune without realizing it.
I glanced and saw a figure. Wasn't it the girl named Qi Miaoge
As soon as he saw Qi Miaoge, Zhou Ran immediately became carried away. He jumped over and picked up a baby beside Qi Miaoge. Regardless of whether the baby was willing or not, he placed the baby across his legs and crowded around Qi Miaoge.
"Hey, isn't this Brother Zhou? He just got beaten up, but why is he still so happy? Does brother like this tune?" The movement beside him made Qi Miaoge turn his head. He saw Zhou Ran with a happy face and couldn't help but start to sarcastically comment.
For some reason, when Zhou Ran was courting her, Qi Miaoge turned a deaf ear to him, but she was still a little excited in her heart.
This was the first time in her life that a strange man had been so attentive to her. It was interesting, but also a little satiated.
But when she saw this guy showing his courtesy to other ladies, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. Now, seeing Zhou Ran squeezing next to her with a happy look on his face, she couldn't help but want to make fun of him.
It didn't matter that she sarcastically said that. Zhou Ran didn't care at all. What he cared about was this charming Qi Miaoge who actually took the initiative to talk to him.
Overwhelmed, Zhou Ran ignored the baby in his arms and pushed the other person down on the bench again, not paying any attention to the other person at all. His big eyes were fanned by the palm-leaf fan, and he had a pouty look as if he was about to cry.
He suddenly widened his rat-shit eyes, looked at Qi Miaoge in disbelief, and exclaimed: "Madam, madam, are you talking to me? Wow, wow, madam, are you moved by my romantic and suave demeanor? I, no, I am really moved!"
"After growing up, I finally have a girl who takes the initiative to talk to me, Xiao Zhou. I'm so happy!" Zhou Ran's face was also very red, and the fat on his face was shaking uncontrollably. It was obvious that he was really excited.
At this time, the previous argument had just died down and everyone had just returned to their seats, but they heard Zhou Ran yelling as if nothing had happened, which made everyone speechless. Even Shu He couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hand, he really had a headache.
As expected, he is still the same person who forgets the pain once the wound has healed. He is not afraid that you, as the elders, will clean up the mess. The more you clean up the mess, the more excited he becomes.
As soon as she saw that she had attracted everyone's attention, Zhou Ran was completely unaware of it as she was thick-skinned and didn't feel it at all; but Qi Miaoge could not resist it. Her cheeks flushed in an instant and she felt embarrassed and ashamed. The shy blush was so red that it made countless men get horny.
Seeing the other person's look, Zhou Ran became even more obsessed. Now not only were his eyes wide open, but his mouth was also wide open, almost enough to fit a child's fist in.
His appearance made Qi Miaoge feel even more ashamed and angry. He suddenly turned his head and ignored this bastard anymore.
At this time, the meal that Zhu Li ordered was finally ready. As the meal was served on the table like water, everyone started to eat immediately.
The woman in black veil in the middle position kept looking at Zhu Li vaguely, with a thoughtful look in her eyes, as if she was thinking about something.
The innkeeper was a very honest man. Not only did he serve soup to the two female guests, he also specially sent a small bowl of soup to Zhou Ran's table. Obviously, he had not forgotten Zhou Ran's request.
Zhou Ran, who was obsessed with Qi Miaoge's beauty, as if possessed by a ghost, handed the small bowl of soup to Qi Miaoge with both hands.
For some reason, perhaps because the soup was really fragrant, or perhaps because she was really thirsty, or perhaps because this small bowl of soup was the only precious item in everyone's meal, Qi Miaoge took it without hesitation and drank it all in one breath.
After Qi Miaoge finished drinking, Zhou Ran suddenly remembered that he had added some ingredients to the soup. He wanted to scream, but was afraid that the two girls nearby would hear him. So he turned his head away with a strange look on his face and ate his meal obediently, not even daring to look at Qi Miaoge's pretty face.
After lunch, everyone just rested for a while, and Zhu Li set off first.
It took nearly a month to get from Shuozhou to Hanzhong; after arriving in Wenshan, he still had to choose a place. If he wanted to get all these things done before Grain in Ear, time was indeed a bit tight, so he had better hurry up. Thinking of this, how could he dare to be negligent.
As soon as Zhu Li left, the others immediately followed.
Zhou Ran was of course no exception, not only did he follow happily, but before leaving, he glanced strangely towards the middle, looking at the two women who were still leisurely enjoying their soup, with an indescribable cleverness in his eyes.
Not until Zhu Li and the others disappeared into the town did the woman in black veil and the woman in white slowly finish their lunch.
The woman in black veil took out a handkerchief, lifted her mask, wiped her seductive mouth, and then said to the woman in white: "You go back first, I have something to do."
"Ah!" Obviously, the black-veiled woman's proposal was very hasty, which made the white-clothed woman look stunned and exclaimed, and then hurriedly asked: "Is the matter that the palace master wants to do related to the group of people just now?"
"Yes." The woman in black veil said calmly, "Do you know the red horse just now?"
"Red horse? Are you talking about the extraordinary and handsome horse that the ugly young man rode?"
"Yes, it is the red horse. It is a rare and precious horse, the Red Hare Rouge Beast!"
"Red Hare? Red Hare! Could it be the Red Hare horse that has the reputation of 'Lü Bu among men, Red Hare among horses'?" The white-clothed woman's eyes were wide open with an expression of disbelief.
The name of Red Hare has been passed down through the ages, and she couldn't help but be surprised.
"Hmph." The woman in black veil rolled her eyes at her in reproach, as if she was complaining that she was making a fuss out of nothing. She then continued, "It's the Red Hare you mentioned. Do you know how many Red Hare horses there are in the world today?"
The woman in white frowned slightly when she heard this, and replied thoughtfully, "I only know that General Zhu Li from Huaihua, who guards the northern border, seems to have a Red Hare. As for whether other people have one, I don't know."
"Hehe, old man?"
"What's wrong, Palace Master?" The black-veiled woman's light laughter made the white-clothed woman embarrassed, but she didn't know what she did wrong, so she could only ask with a puzzled look on her face.
"You are right. In the whole world today, Zhu Li is the only one who has a Red Hare Rouge Beast. Apart from her, I have never heard of a second Red Hare being born."
"Since Red Hare appears here, Zhu Li must be nearby. You just saw that young man. Do you think he looks like an old man?" asked the woman in black veil with a smile.
Zhu Li's reputation was so great that many people who had never seen him, even young people, would involuntarily add the word "old man" before his name as a sign of respect when his name was mentioned. This was very funny to the woman in black veil.
Not only had she seen Zhu Li's true face, she had also plotted against him. How could she not know Zhu Li's real age? He was no more than eighteen or nineteen years old at most. This young man who joined the army at the age of thirteen, in this late Tang Dynasty, indeed shone with unparalleled brilliance, and his name spread far and wide, and his reputation shook the world.
"Ah, Palace Master, Palace Master, are you saying that the extremely ugly young man, he, he, he is General Zhu Li?" The woman in white had a look of disbelief on her face.
She could not believe that the hero in her heart, the man who held up the northern border single-handedly, could be a young man, and such an ugly one at that.
Hearing this, the woman in black veil said solemnly, "Yes, that young man is most likely Zhu Li himself. The Red Hare is a sacred horse that cannot be ridden unless it refuses to recognize its master. Once it recognizes its master, it is very difficult for others to ride it. But that young man can ride it at will. Is this normal?"
The words of her own palace master made the woman in white unable to let go for a long time. She could not connect the hero from the northern border with the ugly young man no matter what.
The tangle in her heart made her silent for a long time, and then she came to her senses and changed the subject: "What the palace lady did, could it be related to the general? But why did the general come to our Shu land instead of staying in the northern border?"
The woman in black veil also wanted to know the answer to the question asked by the woman in white. However, no matter what, since Zhu Li had left Shuozhou, she would not miss this opportunity.
Not long ago, she worked hard and brought together the Khitan, Xi people, Liu Rengong and Li Quanzhong to attack the northern border in a coordinated manner. However, under that situation, they were unable to kill Zhu Li. It can be seen that as long as the opponent is in the army, it is indeed not easy to kill him.
Now, the other party actually ran to Shu without saying a word, so don't blame her for being rude.
In several states in the northern border, people only knew Zhu Li but not the Tang Dynasty. In her opinion, such a person, no matter how heroic he was, must be eliminated.
Just when she was feeling full of confidence and planning to follow quietly and wait for an opportunity to assassinate Zhu Li, the woman in white next to her suddenly screamed, which caught her attention.
Looking up, I saw a woman in white with a constipated look on her face. She kept saying, "Palace Master, Palace Master, I can't do it anymore. I need to go to the toilet. I think I have diarrhea. Palace Master has something to do, so I'll leave first. Ye'er will go back to the palace by herself."
Before she finished speaking, the girl couldn't wait and ran straight to the toilet behind the inn.
The woman in black veil gave the other person a strange look, secretly complaining in her heart, "Girl, you were greedy and ate random food, now you have a stomachache, you really deserve this lesson."
But there is a saying that goes, don’t talk about others behind their back, or you will suffer retribution.
Before she could finish her complaints, she suddenly stretched out her bare hands and covered her lower abdomen. A long-lasting feeling of soreness and distension suddenly rushed up from her lower abdomen and suddenly went to the top of her head. Her stomach felt like it was churning, and she almost couldn't control herself. Obviously, she was afraid that she had an upset stomach.
After realizing this, the woman in black veil ran to the back of the inn without saying a word, closely following the woman in white.
But no matter how hard she tried, she was still a step too late. She could only watch the woman in white sneak into the toilet in a puff of smoke. After a while, there was a sudden sound of gunfire and the woman in white's happy moaning.
