Chapter 69 Hot Pot and Sword

The day's events passed in a noisy manner as Fengjiang City opened up wasteland.

Even if some people are unhappy, on the bright side, they definitely don’t dare to act recklessly.

For example, Liu Hao from Liuyang County, no matter how angry he was, could only send a message to Liuyang County first, and then find someone from the Yuhe Sect.

He didn't even have the guts to retrieve the five corpses.

It’s not that he has no backbone, the main reason is that Fengjiang County is too evil, and the water is getting deeper and deeper. Even a Dragon Gate realm leader will die if he wants to, so he is a Dengtang realm?

It is absolutely wrong to say that it is absolutely wrong to plot against the county magistrate surnamed Shen at this time.

But the problem is, he really can't find a reason why he should be afraid.

Why can’t Fengjiang, such a broken place, be so easily accessible?

…

Night falls slowly.

Steam was rising inside the government office.

Everyone in the yard looked at Shen Mu with confusion, wondering what he was going to do with such a big pot.

According to their previous ideas, they originally wanted to eat Cao Zhengxiang's stir-fry today to celebrate the success of the land reclamation and recruitment of people.

And before coming back, I bought a lot of good ingredients at Caishikou, which was quite rich.

However, after coming back, Shen Mu unexpectedly said that he would prepare today's dinner. You know, this was the first time the county magistrate had cooked.

Therefore, even Cao Zhengxiang is looking forward to it.

He really wanted to see what Shen Mu's cooking skills were, but what they didn't expect was that the dinner Shen Mu prepared was different from usual.

On the big stone table in the middle of the courtyard, there is a large pot. Under the big pot, there is a stove lit by a bronze cauldron.

This looks a bit like Cao Zhengxiang's usual steps of scalding wine, except now the rich soup base is placed on top.

Cao Zhengxiang observed carefully and then looked at some side dishes prepared by Chen Mu.

He asked: "Sir, what kind of dish are you going to make today? I have been traveling around the world for decades, and I have never heard of it. It looks like stew, but is it like a steam stew pot? It looks like stir-fry, but it is soup. The bottom is so thick, you are worthy of being an adult, I can’t even cook a dish.”

Cao Zhengxiang's flattery is very accurate.

Chen Mu looked at the people around him, then smiled confidently, pointed to the things on the table and said, "Of course I want to make delicious food today. Haven't you heard of hot pot?"

"Hot pot?"

"I don't think I've heard of it."

Everyone shook their heads.

Shen Mu: "There is a saying that there is nothing that cannot be solved with a hot pot meal. If so, then two!"

"Ah? Really?" Li Tieniu looked at the table of dishes naively.

"You will know after eating it, hot pot is the most delicious in the world."

Chen Mu picked up the meat next to him and put it into the pot bit by bit to boil.

Then he called everyone to join the table and it was almost ready to eat.

He looked at Song Yizhi in the distance and smiled slightly: "This meal is my sword apprenticeship ceremony. You may want to try it later. I'm sure it will suit your taste!"

Song Yizhi's eyes flashed with light.

She looked at the yuba and lettuce that were being poured into the pot, and unconsciously swallowed the fragrant saliva.

Even if Chen Mu didn't say how delicious the hot pot was, her nose had already told her the answer.

The spicy and fragrant smell emanating from the pot of soup has filled the yard.

It seems that tomatoes are mixed in. These ingredients are mixed together, giving her a very special feeling.

Song Yizhi didn't say anything, and sat directly next to Chen Mu, already ready to use his chopsticks.

Chen Mu was excited, it seemed that he had completed the first level.

He had figured it out thoroughly. As long as Song Yizhi could eat comfortably, learning the sword would be easy.

Pointing to the dishes on the table: "Aunt Song... Master, when you eat later, dip some sesame sauce into it. The meat and vegetables will taste better when dipped in it."

Song Yizhi nodded, stretched out his chopsticks, and took a bite of the mutton according to Shen Mu's method, and then he was completely immersed in it.

Delicious! Really delicious!

She even thought that bringing this hot pot method back to the battlefield at her home would make those people more nostalgic.

"Everyone, there is a way to eat it." Shen Mu suddenly said: "This Shabu-shabu hairy tripe and yellow throat have a very interesting way to eat it, keep an eye out!"

Chen Mu picked up the chopsticks and demonstrated it himself.

He picked up a piece of tripe, rinsed it in the soup pot nine times, and then put it into his mouth with a look of enjoyment on his face.

He said enigmatically: "Shabu-shabu! It tastes best when you eat it!"

As soon as these words came out.

Li Tieniu, Gu Sanyue and Xin Fan all seemed to suddenly realize.

I quickly followed Chen Mu and learned to eat the hairy tripe in this way. The crispy feeling was very delicious and novel.

But on the other side, there was something wrong with the expressions of Cao Zhengxiang and Zhao Taiji.

They looked at Shen Mu suspiciously, always feeling like they had heard this method before.

Cao Zhengxiang gave a thumbs up and said plausibly: "Tsk tsk, can you see, you are indeed our lord. Even the food he eats is so different. The combination of eating style and life is the great way in the world!"

Paradoxical and inconsistent, yet again and again, and so on, this is the most wonderful thing in the world. You are truly worthy of being an adult, how great!"

Needless to say, Cao Zhengxiang is still quite capable.

This flattery was something that even Shen Mu couldn't say when he was drinking with him in the district.

Zhao Taiji looked at Cao Zhengxiang and laughed: "Master Cao, I should say it or not, but I admire your understanding of the world! Don't say it, I really feel the same way. Alas, I remember the past years vividly in my mind. one!"

As he spoke, Zhao Taiji became impassioned, picked up the wine bowl, and drank it all in one gulp.

"..."

Shenmu ate the fish balls in his mouth and listened to the conversation between the two people speechlessly.

To be honest, as a man, if you can't even understand what these connotative conversations are talking about, then your life is really in vain.

However, he also admired these two people for being able to communicate in secret without any boundaries.

Logically speaking, Li Tieniu's kung fu over there is not bad, but how can he hide it so deeply without saying a word?

Maybe this is an honest person.

at this time,

Li Tieniu ignored their words and kept stuffing meat into his mouth, not forgetting to pinch Gu Sanyue and Xin Fan hard.

In his opinion, the nine-simple and one-deep method is simply done by boring readers.

Just eat the food when it's cooked, why bother with all the red tape?

Furthermore, he is a happy person, and his wife Li Erniang also dislikes the feeling of hesitation and grinding.

Who does those things that are available and not available?

…

The hotpot was eaten until very late, and everyone reluctantly dispersed.

Because it's really delicious.

Cao Zhengxiang went to clean up the kitchen.

In the yard, there were only Chen Mu and Song Yizhi.

Looking at the moonlight of autumn leaves gives people a moment of tranquility.

Suddenly Song Yizhi said:

"Everyone has a sword, but everyone's sword is also different, with different looks, different abilities, different sword skills and different hearts."

"The only thing that may be coincidentally the same is the number. Some people only have natal swords, some may have two, and some may even have three. So, before doing this, you have to think about it. What do you want in your heart? How many swords are there?"

Chen Mu: "...?"

"Don't be in a hurry, think about it slowly."

"good."
