Shen Tang never thought that he would end up in such a social demise.
Being stared at by several pairs of eyes.
There was silence on both sides.
Fortunately, she was thick-skinned enough to wave and greet as if nothing had happened, then approached with a smile: "What are you guys eating?"
"Of course it's a pig." Qi Shan calmly put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands, took out a handkerchief and slowly wiped the grease from the corners of his mouth. Under Shen Tang's slightly heartbroken gaze, he deliberately emphasized (finished the knife), "The pigs raised by Mr. Shen are quite tasty."
Hearing this, Shen Tang turned his gaze to the half roasted pig on the grill, which was sizzling from time to time. Its color was like amber and real gold, shiny and full of meat fragrance. The skin was crispy but not greasy, making people salivate.
At this time, Shen Tang's stomach began to rebel again.
Looking at the roasted pig that looked and smelled good, and must have tasted good too, Shen Tang couldn't help but feel hungry and swallowed his saliva - the pig was so cute, how could he not eat it
It not only needs to be roasted, but also stewed, fried and simmered, with more spices and sesame oil brushed on, striving to achieve the ultimate level of "crispy skin, tender meat, crispy bones and rich flavor"!
In this way, the pig's flesh will not be wasted.
In an instant, hundreds of words of food reviews flashed through my mind.
Gu Chi, who was sitting around the campfire, almost lost his concentration.
He laughed for no reason, causing Kang Shi to look at him in surprise and confusion - what's so funny about this
Kang Shi didn’t understand, Kang Shi didn’t comprehend.
Shen Tang asked shamelessly: "Is there anything left for me?"
Qishan: “…”
Hearing Shen Xiaolangjun wailing "My pig", I thought he would be angry, aggrieved or holding back, but his face was full of "I want to eat too, give me a share". Qi Shanxin shook his head and pointed to the pot simmering on a low fire: "Over there."
Chu Yao stewed pig's trotters for Shen Tang.
The soup is thick and white, and if you smell it carefully you can smell the aroma of medicine.
However, these herbs did not destroy the rich flavor of the broth itself, but made it more delicious and smooth. The meat had been stewed for who knows how long. It melted in the mouth with a light bite. Although it was fatty, it was not greasy at all. Shen Tang drank two bowls in one breath.
She said: "Wuhui's skills are getting better and better."
After drinking the soup and chewing two pieces of pig's trotters, the strong feeling of hunger was slightly relieved. Shen Tang looked at the roasted pig with a bit of greed, and the aroma of the meat became more and more rich. She didn't need to say anything, just holding the big bowl and looking at it eagerly, people could understand what she was thinking.
Who could refuse that
Zhai Le couldn't refuse.
So he made a decision that went against Mr. Chu Yao's.
He gave away half of the roasted pork ribs he was given.
Zhai Huan: “…”
Seeing Shen Tang and Zhai Le eating with their mouths full of oil, he secretly held his forehead - Mr. Shen had just recovered from a serious injury, so his diet should be lighter, but his cousin was "righteous". However, this was not a big deal. Although the physique of a scholar was not as good as that of a warrior, his recovery speed was much faster than that of an ordinary person, and he was very durable.
Zhai Le didn't even spare the bones.
Relying on his good teeth, he chewed the thinner bones directly into pieces.
Taste the inside and then spit it out.
He said, "I heard that Brother Shen is fighting Gong Xichou again today? Tell me, why is he still haunting us... We'll have to fight him next time we meet... But we can't beat him, it's really annoying."
Shen Tang doesn't care about his image at all.
Unlike other people who used knives to slice meat and chewed it slowly, she grabbed it with her hands and ate it with big mouthfuls, stuffing one side of her cheek. After chewing it for more than ten times and swallowing it, she said, "Otherwise, why is it called the big boss guarding the gate?"
It's too easy to be rejected, which damages the quality.
Zhai Le didn't understand what "Guarding the Persian Pass" meant.
Brother Shen really knows a lot. Last time, he mentioned "Guiding Enpixi". He thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure out which clan's naming style it was. He followed the principle of asking if he didn't understand: "What is 'Guarding the Pass Persia'? What does Gongxi Chou mean?"
Shen Tang said: "No, it's a stumbling block on the road of life!"
Zhai Le pondered the meaning.
It's really vivid and appropriate.
Gong Xichou is the stumbling block in his life.
Although he never said it before, he has always been confident in his own strength and talent. He also believes that when he enters the golden age for becoming a martial artist, his talent will be developed to the maximum extent, and he will definitely become one of the strongest martial artists in the world!
He is destined to reach the top!
As a result, he was kicked several times by Gong Xichou on the way.
If it weren't for Brother Shen's repeated rescues, his body would have been cold several times; if it weren't for his good mentality, he might have been "demonically blocked" and could never break through himself again when he met Gong Xichou, a strong man who was so powerful that he couldn't even challenge him...
but-
Zhai Le muttered: "I will kill this tiger sooner or later!"
Shen Tang smiled and patted his shoulder with his elbow.
"Xiaofang has great ambitions!"
Zhai Le said: "Alas, we have to be more optimistic."
He could neither avoid the obstacles nor go back, because there was only one way to become stronger - no matter whether it was the obstacle Gong Xichou or other strong people he would meet in the future, all he could do was to knock them down and walk on their corpses.
Of course, it is also possible to become a stepping stone yourself.
This is the way the world is.
Zhai Le smiled and held out his hand: "Brother Shen, do you have any more wine?"
Shen Tang said: "Alcohol is prohibited in the army."
Zhai Le said, "Hey, you don't restrict me."
He is not from the military either.
It’s not too late to follow the rules for marching and fighting later.
Shen Tang had no choice but to smile and make him a jar of wine.
Zhai Le drank heavily while eating meat, occasionally joking with Shen Tang. From the atmosphere between the two, there was no trace of the solemnity after the war. When Chu Yao came back after handling the matter, the pork on the grill had been shared by everyone, leaving only a large piece.
Well, Shen Tang specially saved it for him.
She casually asked, "What happened to Yuanliang's hand?"
When Qi Shan heard this, his movements froze.
She added: "You look unwell, are you injured?"
Qi Shan didn't say anything, but just exchanged glances with Chu Yao and the others. Shen Tang noticed that there was something fishy going on between them, so he followed his intuition and asked.
At the same time, it feels a bit strange.
Why is it strange
Because there were only so many people in her camp, and there were still the same number of people before she fell into coma and after she woke up, it can be seen that in the fierce battle during the day, Qi Shan and others were just slacking off, so there were no casualties.
Then, "Qishan was injured" doesn't make sense.
Could it be that someone took advantage of his coma to bully Qi Shan
Yuanliang didn't want to embarrass himself, so he kept it a secret
Shen Tang carefully observed the changes in the expressions of several people, even Lin Feng, but could not see any clues. After thinking for a while, she put down the food - eating would ruin the atmosphere when talking about serious matters - wiped the corners of her mouth and hands with a handkerchief, pursed her lips, and looked serious.
"Tell me what you are hiding from me?"
Who dares to bully her? Even if the person who did this was Gong Xichou, Shen Tang would jump up and smash his head!
Several people remained silent.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Zhai Huan pulled his cousin away.
Seeing them leave, Shen Tang's expression became stern and more majestic.
He whispered, "Don't tell me?"
Shen Tang couldn't hold it anymore.
Could it be that I really guessed wrong
Wasn't Qishan being bullied or was he accidentally cutting his hand with a knife
Because the wound is too big, so the qi and blood are deficient
"So boring!" Shen Tang was about to put more pressure on her. He had a bit of displeasure on his brows and curled his lips lazily. He threw the dirty handkerchief into the fire, flicked the ashes off the corner of his clothes, and was about to get up, saying, "Who do you think I am?"
"Wait!" Qi Shan said.
Shen Tang paused, remaining silent.
"What's up?"
Qishan said: "Please move, my lord."
Shen Tang: "Come with me."
I was puzzled.
Could it be that the person who injured Qi Shan was someone important? A big shot who had a say in the Alliance Army? Otherwise, why would Yuan Liang and Wu Hui look so serious? Thinking of this, Shen Tang also became serious.
Always ready to fight and get back your dignity.
Gu Chi: “…”
After the two left, he finally couldn't hold back his laughter.
To be honest, he used to hate his own way of being a scholar.
Only after getting to know Shen Lang did I realize its magical uses.
Kang Shi wondered: "What are you laughing at again?"
He felt that Gu Chi was a little weird. He always smiled for no reason when no one was around, and he had no idea what he was thinking.
I'm very curious.
Chu Yao also looked over.
Gu Chi Ren smiled and said, "I just think that the 'evil plotter' Qi Yuanliang has finally gotten what he deserved, hahahaha, he was completely controlled by his lord who is a generation younger than him. These two people can talk at cross purposes, I don't want to laugh, but I really can't help it."
As a scholar of literature, he is a professional and will not easily show his emotions, unless he really can't help it...
Chu Yao: “???”
Kang Shi: “???”
Gu Chi laughed and said, "Shen Lang has always believed that Qi Yuanliang was oppressed by someone in the alliance army. He was afraid to reveal his injuries because of the power... He was afraid of causing trouble for her, so he lied... Hahaha, Qi Yuanliang was actually deceived!"
Chu Yao: “…”
To be honest, he was also deceived just now.
Kang Shi: “…”
As a new member, he was completely confused.
at the same time-
Shen Tang and the other person walked out of the camp one after the other, but did not go far. They only stopped when they reached a secluded place.
He asked, “Can you tell me?”
Qishan said: "Yes."
He was ready to confess.
This was a decision he made after careful consideration.
In the past, Qi Shan had kept things from Shen Tang because he was still "Young Master Shen" and had no ambitions. Qi Shan didn't know if Shen Tang could fulfill his wishes, so keeping it a secret was not a big deal. But now that things have become a foregone conclusion, continuing to keep it a secret would be a taboo.
No matter how big or small Shen Tang's power is, she is the "Lord", and even a well-intentioned concealment is not allowed to exist.
If you cheat once, there will be a second and a third time.
This kind of loophole cannot be opened randomly.
"My Lord..."
Shen Tang's hands trembled.
She really wasn't used to this title.
But I still endured and listened to him continue.
"My lord, you should be very clear about the way of the good scholar, right?"
Shen Tang was puzzled and replied: "It is clear. You said so."
What does this have to do with the way of scholars who pray for good
Could it be that the way of the literati has backfired
Shen Tang turned his back to Qi Shan, feeling anxious.
"This way of the scholar is not to completely constrain the master. If the master betrays you, you will kill him, but if the master betrays you, you will 'protect him'—" Shen Tang was shocked when he heard this, and turned his head to look at him, Qi Shan did not avoid his gaze, "Shan, will be your second life! Until the moment when the master no longer trusts you!"
"Second life..."
It sounds different from Wuhui's "one corpse, two lives".
She looked at her own hands, then at Qishan's hands.
A bold and absurd idea came to my mind.
Could it be—
Shen Tang opened his mouth and asked: "Can it be cut off?"
Qi Shan was stunned: "What?"
"I mean - can you break it?"
"I don't need you to share my injuries!" Shen Tang thought about the injuries he had suffered after traveling through time, and his head suddenly began to ache. My goodness, when did Qi Shan start? "What I said may be a bit hypocritical at the moment, but Yuanliang, my life is not more valuable than yours, and I don't need you to take my place!"
Shen Tang was really angry when he said this.
Even she found herself a little funny—she was the one who benefited, she was the one wearing a resurrection armor with no worries about her life, why was she angry? But she was angry!
She turned a blind eye to Qi Shan and Chu Yao's previous concealment and fanning the flames, and even welcomed it.
Yes, she would love to see it happen!
Even though Shen Tang hypnotized herself more than once, her personality was that of a homebody. She would sit instead of standing, lie down instead of sitting. She shouldn't be so excited at the sight of blood, she shouldn't be so skillful in a fight, and she shouldn't just rush in with a sword. But her body's reactions wouldn't lie.
What does it mean to be second to none and above ten thousand people
Even if Qi Shan and Chu Yao were not there, she, Shen Tang, would not be depressed and live in inferiority to others. There can only be the sky above her head, not other people!
So, she won't be angry.
But this time I was really angry!
"You should have told me! You shouldn't have kept it from me! You shouldn't have done this!" The reaction was unexpectedly large, "Qi Yuanliang, disconnect it!"
Qishan said, "No, I can't do it. I can't do it."
Shen Tang was so angry that he jumped up and down.
"Goodness cannot completely control the way of the scribes."
Shen Tang almost lost control.
This reason—
It’s really not Qi Yuanliang’s fault.
Qi Shan added calmly, "Besides, there's nothing wrong with this. Being hurt means trust is always there. Is this a high price to pay for someone you trust? Youli, trust is something you can't see or touch, but it's in my palm right now."
He spread out his tightly wrapped palms.
The tone was calm yet powerful.
“It’s right here.”
Shen Tang: “…”
Ever since she knew that Qishan's way of writing was to "kill the master", she suspected that Qishan was eager to be "trusted", but she didn't expect him to be so radical and stubborn. She admitted that she had hit a wall and could not shake Qishan's logic, and even felt that there was some truth in it.
Tired...
"How can you control the Way of the Scribes?"
Shen Tang still didn't give up.
Chu Wuhui's death was enough, and with the addition of Qi Yuanliang who was an enhanced version of her... My goodness, if anything happened to her, there would be three deaths? Shen Tang felt that he could not bear it.
Qishan said: "This is not easy."
"If you believe in yourself, you can definitely control it completely. If you also believe in me, turn it off and open it whenever you want. I can perform a self-stabbing performance right here..."
Shen Tang wanted to point his finger to the sky and swear. His tone at this moment sounded like an irresponsible scumbag deceiving a young girl who was inexperienced in the world.
Qi·Young girl who is not very experienced in the world·Shan: "…"
His eyes clearly showed that this was going to be difficult.
Shen Tang held his forehead with his hand.
I'm really having a headache right now.
But she didn't expect that there would be something even more troubling waiting for her, because a person who absolutely shouldn't be in this secluded place appeared. Shen Tang stretched out his hand to stop Qi Shan behind him.
"Gongxichou?"
