Chapter 158 The Untold Secret

Outside Beishan County, Sanqi came out of the city and galloped all the way. The official road was lined with fields, and the green seedlings were growing well.

Passing through the fields, the official road went straight into the forest. The three riders had just run into the hilly forest area when they suddenly heard the whistle of "shh". The three of them looked back and saw Lei Zongkang standing on the hill beside him waving to them.

Hei Mudan, Duan Hu, and Wu Sanliang stopped urgently, turned and ran back down the hillside.

Hei Mudan looked up and asked, "Why did you come here?"

Before, Niu Youdao asked her to come to Beishan County to find Duan Hu and Wu Sanliang. The place where they broke up is not here, and there is still a long way to go.

There was the sound of trampling horseshoes on the hill, and Niu Youdao appeared beside Lei Zongkang on horseback, looked down at them from a height, tapped the horse's belly with his legs, and the horse rushed him down the hillside.

Lei Zongkang on the hillside turned around and left, and after a while he also rushed down on a horse.

"Master Dao!" Duan Hu and Wu Sanliang clasped their fists together, with joyful expressions on their faces when they met again.

Even though he was still a casual cultivator, unconsciously, as long as he saw Niu Youdao, he would not feel that he was still that miserable casual cultivator.

"It's been a hard journey!" Niu Youdao smiled at the two of them, then raised his chin towards Hei Mudan.

Hei Mudan immediately replied: "Master Dao, I've seen it. Apart from the lantern, the most conspicuous thing is that there is a big red flower hanging under the eaves of the inn."

Niu Youdao nodded.

Duan Hu said again: "Master Dao, on our way to Beishan, we saw that there was a post station arresting them. After asking about them, it seems that they are arresting the eyeliners hiding in the post station."

"Let's go!" Niu Youdao smiled slightly, turned the horse and went away, and several people followed.

As for what Duan Hu said, he also asked the post station to inquire about it on the road, and he asked for a small amount of money from the postman. Many post stations have arrested people.

As soon as he heard the movement, he knew that Hai Ruyue had complied.

In fact, he himself was able to contact the people in the local government at that time, but the officials below were too complicated, who knew what was going on, who knew how loyal they were to the Zhao court, who knew whether faction disputes would be mixed up in it, and was concealed.

In addition, local officials can't make too much decisions, many people dare not take responsibility, just pick up a report and report it if they don't understand it? Niu Youdao really didn't have confidence in them, and it was troublesome to report layer by layer, which wasted his time.

I don't know, without understanding, I went to Hai Ruyue to be on the safe side. Hai Ruyue must know who to contact the court to solve the problem quickly, and the facts have proved that she is right.

Walking all the way to the end of the world, several people followed Niu Youdao blindly and ran day and night.

Although it is estimated that there is no problem with the post station, to be on the safe side, I still did not stay at the post station during the rest on the way, and stayed overnight in the wilderness and forests. I would only rest at the post station when it rained, and try not to have too much contact with the people at the post station.

It was raining cats and dogs again that day, so the party went into a small inn and asked for a room to rest.

There was lightning and thunder outside, and Niu Youdao was soaking in the bathtub with the window open, lying down and watching the wind and rain outside, with a jug of dirty wine and a sword beside him, pouring a glass of slow drink from time to time.

The pot of wine was exhausted, and the temperature of the water was also gone, so I got up.

After changing his clothes, he knocked twice on the wooden wall with his hands. After a while, Hei Mudan opened the door and looked at it, then left again, called the postman to come over and carried the bathtub away, and then took the comb to help Niu Youdao comb his hair.

"It's raining outside, why don't you close the windows?" Hei Mudan asked, actually wanting to say, you don't even close the windows when you take a shower?

Then I swallowed it when I thought I could be in the open.

Sitting there with eyes closed, Niu Youdao said slowly, "Listen to the wind and rain, watch the wind and rain."

Hei Mudan was speechless, she helped him comb his hair, and then took his clothes to wash. She was used to serving this person along the way, and this person also enjoyed it as a matter of course.

Others also tacitly took it for granted, thinking that there was something between the two of them.

After being refreshed, Niu Youdao lay on the bed sideways with his clothes on, propping his head on one arm and dozing off.

Not long after, the black peony who had washed the clothes came again, knocked on the door and entered, and a bowl was placed in front of Niu Youdao.

Niu Youdao half-opened his eyes and asked, "What?"

Black Peony: "Frosting sugar."

Niu Youdao brushed his fingers slightly, and closed his eyes again, expressing his interest in not eating.

Sending frosting sugar is just an excuse, Black Peony said: "The rain stops and falls suddenly, the sky can't be fixed, why don't we just rest here today and leave tomorrow?"

Niu Youdao opened his eyes to look at the sky outside, then his eyes fell on the bowl in her hand, and he paused, "Ask the station if there is any fat."

"Fat on pigs?" Hei Mudan was suspicious, thinking she had heard it wrong.

"En!" Niu Youdao nodded.

Black Mudan: "Yes, I just asked them to butcher a pig."

Niu Youdao stood up and walked out the door, "I invite you to dinner."

"..." Black Peony was confused, invited us to dinner? Is it useful?

Afterwards, she understood what it meant, and followed Niu Youdao to the kitchen of the inn. Looking at the posture, she dared to cook by herself.

Black Peony hurriedly dissuaded: "Master Dao, how can I let you do this, just let the people in the station do it."

Niu Youdao looked at the few people who came with him, and said jokingly: "You are blessed, I will teach you some untold secrets. There are only two people in this world who know it."

Upon hearing this, several people immediately drove out the postman in the kitchen.

Niu Youdao asked them to go to the post station to ask for ginger and garlic. After Yuan Gang's investigation, he found that there were no such things in the kitchen here, but there were them in the pharmacy. They were used as medicine, not as food.

For example, when they came to the post station in the rain, the post station had prepared ginger soup.

With the sleeves rolled up and a knife in hand, the fat is picked and then sliced, the sword is so beautiful, it's a little trick to cut.

At the same time, he directs several people who make fires to light fires, those who wash vegetables to wash vegetables, and those who clean kitchen utensils to clean kitchen utensils.

As soon as the pot is red hot, the fat meat will be dried out, and it will be ignored after a few shoves with the spatula. Picked the pork belly and cut it into pieces, and processed seasonings such as ginger and garlic.

Hei Mudan and the others looked at each other in blank dismay, their movements were clean and neat, and they used the kitchen utensils in an orderly manner. They wondered if this person used to be a cook.

The fat in the pot is boiled into oil, the oil residue is taken out, the oil is placed in a bowl, and some frost sugar is pounded and poured into the remaining oil in the pot.

Hei Mudan and the others were speechless, what are they doing? Mixing sugar and oil like this is disgusting, can this be eaten?

The spatula was stirring in the pot. After the sugar was boiled in the oil, Niu Youdao poured a pot of meat into it, stir-fried it for color, and then added ginger and garlic to stew.

Soon, a strange fragrance wafted from the kitchen, a fragrance that everyone had never smelled before, and it whetted the appetite.

When the noses of several people were inflamed, they all looked dignified, a little convinced that it was an untold secret, and Hei Mudan said to Lei Zongkang: "Look at it, don't let anyone come close."

The implication is not to let people steal away.

After a pot of oily braised pork came out of the pan, I fried a piece of fish, and fried a few green vegetables in the kitchen with the meat, all of which were lard. There was no other way, there was no other oil available.

While doing it, Niu Youdao pointed out to Hei Mudan and taught her how to do it.

After finishing, Niu Youdao walked away like throwing his hands away from the shopkeeper.

"This is a way of making money, clean it up and don't leave any traces!" Hei Mudan told Duan Hu in a low voice, afraid of being followed by others, she took the food away with the others.

In the inn lobby, a group of people had already smelled the tempting fragrance, and looked curiously at the things brought out by them.

The next step is naturally to watch this group of people feasting and drinking, and Hei Mudan and the others couldn't stop eating.

Niu Youdao tasted it a little bit. To him, the taste was only passable, and he hadn't got the seasoning right. He and Yuan Gang definitely wouldn't make such nonsense when dealing with their own mouths.

But to Hei Mudan and others, it seemed to be a peerless delicacy. Their eyes lit up when they ate it, and they almost swallowed their tongues. Not to mention the meat dishes, I never thought that green vegetables could be so delicious.

The people in the station have been looking at it, wondering, is it so delicious? But it's really delicious!

The postmaster secretly asked the cook, "Can you see how it was made?"

The cook shook his head: "I don't know, I just know how many herbs they put in it."

The postmaster was speechless, it doesn't matter if you don't taste it, how can you take medicine indiscriminately!

The tableware on the table was all emptied, and Duan Hu and the others rubbed their stomachs, looking like they hadn't wasted their lives and were still full of ideas.

Hei Mudan smiled shyly, feeling embarrassed for the way she ate just now, but it was really delicious!

Wu Sanliang, who was rubbing his belly, couldn't help reminding, "Master Dao, not far to the east is Beizhou in South Korea."

It is not without reason to remind you that this journey north seems to be going to South Korea, but if you really want to go to South Korea, Beizhou, which originally belonged to Yan State in the east, is now the territory of South Korea.

Niu Youdao smiled lightly, "We'll know when the time comes." After saying that, he got up and left.

It is not without reason that Ning goes far away. It is said that the current Shang Qingzong is on the territory of Shao Dengyun in Beizhou. One thing is worse than one thing. Try to avoid meeting with people from Shang Qingzong.

Hei Mudan turned around and reprimanded Wu Sanliang: "If you have something to eat, you can't keep your mouth shut?"

Wu Sanliang was stunned: "Did I say something wrong?"

Black Peony: "Why are you talking about Beizhou?"

Wu Sanliang was surprised: "What's wrong with mentioning Beizhou?"

Hei Mudan lowered his voice and said: "You don't know the identity of the Daoist now. Have you never heard of the rumor that the head of the Shangqing Sect is now in Beizhou. If the rumor is true, aren't you exposing his scars?"

The so-called rumors were released by the Song family, saying that Tang Yi married Niu Youdao and swindled Niu Youdao's head.

Wu Sanliang was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly apologized in a low voice: "Slip of word, slip of the tongue."

The next day the rain cleared, and the group set off again. Niu Youdao, who got on his horse, was a little dumbfounded. He saw that Lei Zongkang carried a scapegoat, Wu Sanliang carried a sack, and Duan Hu who followed quickly took something like a ladle and stuffed it into Wu Sanliang's opened sack.

Is this going to move people's kitchen? Niu Youdao frowned and said, "What are you doing?"

Hei Mudan who ran out later threw a bag of things into Wu Sanliang's sack, and said hehe: "Take it, it's useful on the road."

"..." Niu Youdao rolled his eyes, these guys were really not too tired, they were really speechless, so they rushed out first.

Several people chased after them on horseback, but along the way, Wu Sanliang's sack kept ringing, and Niu Youdao had a toothache.
