Chapter 20 Moonlight Night (Part )

We can reach Xianxian Gorge tomorrow.

I don’t know if I might have to travel for a long time tomorrow. The whole team had a lot of time to rest today, and everyone started to rest just after the afternoon.

It was as if nothing happened at Lao Mei's house. Mrs. Mei continued to take her eldest daughter-in-law out to dig wild vegetables.

Mei Shitou and Mei Erhu also left the camp to "cut firewood".

Only Mei Qian and Jiang were left in the camp, so the mother and daughter had nothing to do.

Because of the incident between the Mei family and the Han family a few days ago, people still came to inquire about it. Jiang seemed to be gentle, but she was flawless when talking to people.

Since he didn't intend to drag others into trouble, when someone asked about this matter, Jiang's answer would naturally be different from the previous two days.

It's just that Mei Qian asked Jiang to be more ambiguous in her answer. She didn't want anyone to grasp the situation, and she also didn't want others to know about their family's continued dealings with the Han family.

Mei Qian just listened to Jiang's words in dealing with people and started cooking today's dinner.

Mei Qian plans to bake some pies tonight using wild vegetables, mushrooms, and the dried Lulu beast meat that she got in exchange that day.

Taking out half a piece of Lulu beast's jerky, Mei Qian looked at it carefully. This Lulu beast's jerky was lighter in color and softer than the horse meat jerky that Mei Qian and her family processed themselves.

It is said to be dried meat, but it is only dried on the surface, and it is still very soft when poked inside.

Mei Qian was also surprised when she saw this. She cut off a small piece of meat and gently twisted it with her hands, and found that the meat could be easily squeezed into puree.

This otherworldly jerky is simply outrageous, the meat is so tender that it looks ridiculous!
Mei Qian even smelled it and didn't smell any special fishy smell. While rubbing it with her fingertips, Mei Qian was pleasantly surprised to find that the meat looked lean, but in fact it contained quite a lot of oil!
Initially, Mei Qian didn't think there was anything wrong with this discovery, but when her pie was completely baked, she discovered that some of the thin edges of the pie, which was browned on both sides, were directly soaked with oil and water!

When the shiny cake appeared in everyone's eyes, before Mei Qian could react, she had already screamed:
"Oh my God! Where did you get so much oil?"

Mei Qian also didn't expect that the pie was really sizzling and oily. She was obsessed with opening the pot. At that moment, the aroma of dough and the fresh aroma of wild vegetables and mushrooms soaked in oil attracted the whole family. come over.

And then--

Ugh!

Faced with the soul torture of her breast, Mei Qian also wanted to know where this piece of meat came from so much oil!

Their family had no gas at all when they fled!
"Ah, there is a piece of fat in that Xirong man's baggage..."''

Mei Qian suddenly had a brainstorm and decided to throw all the impossibility to Xirong Bing.

She said sheepishly, "I found a piece of fat that day and put it in my grain bag. I originally wanted to keep it for everyone to eat on the way."

As soon as she said this, she looked at Mrs. Mei, and then explained: "I originally wanted to say something about that thing, but there were too many things going on along the way, and the thing was covered tightly with flour. I didn't see it, so I forgot about it. I just forgot about it today." Discover……"

"How much oil does it cost? You girl can just eat it in one meal?"

Mrs. Mei didn't pursue what Mei Qian had concealed, but look at this cake, it's so shiny! Wouldn't this shallow girl throw all the fat into it? !
Because her expression was too vivid, Mei Qian could only acquiesce.

"You loser thing..."

"Milk, now the only way to live up to this fat and water is to eat it all!"

As soon as Mei Qian finished speaking, Mrs. Mei, who was about to criticize Mei Qian, swallowed hard.

Mei Qian saw it clearly and immediately smiled with a bit of flattery: "Isn't this the case that everyone has to work hard again tonight? I think I still want to have a good meal."

After Mei Qian finished speaking, she glanced sideways at Mr. Han.

Sure enough, her aunt immediately beamed and said, "Yes, Mom, after a good meal, everyone will be strong enough to work!"

Everyone who had been nervous since hearing Mei Qian's plan last night was now completely dazzled by this super rich meal.

#Mai Xiang Mushroom Vegetable Oil Cake - one bite is satisfying, full of meaty flavor, not greasy~#
At this time, Mei Qian secretly uploaded the cake into the system and ignored it.

The family also started their feast before tonight's event. Mei Qian's cooking skills were brought to a whole new level tonight thanks to the addition of Nalulu beast meat (you).

After eating and drinking, the sun had completely sunk into the horizon. Mei Qian picked up a Xirong soldier's scimitar and once again confirmed with Mei Erhu and the others the details of their "cutting firewood" during the day.

After confirming, Mei Shitou was a little worried. He looked at Mei Qian and asked: "Second sister, are you sure you want to go together tonight? You are so small..."

The original person was only eleven years old, with thin arms and legs, and a small stature. Mei Shitou was really worried when he saw Mei Qian like this.

"You and dad can't leave the sight of the Han family, it's up to me to take care of this.

Although I am small, I am flexible and can dodge quickly. Maybe I will be able to escape better than you in the final step. "Mei Qian asked Mei Shitou to relax. After that, Jiang on the side also looked at Mei Qian with a worried expression.

Mei Qian smiled at her and said, "We can relax after tonight."

After speaking, Mei Qian looked up again at the crescent moon hanging on the branches. She hoped that the moon tonight would be even more powerful.

···
When Mei Qian left, she deliberately took a detour and left from behind the Chen family's residence to avoid being noticed by the Han family who had been wandering around the Chen family's residence for some time.

Mei Qian wrapped Xirong's scimitar in bark and carefully sneaked through the woods.

The chirping of cicadas and frogs kept passing by her ears, and under the dim light of the first quarter moon, Mei Qian roughly identified the direction and walked towards the princess' residence.

At this time, she kept in mind what Mei Erhu observed in the evening:

"There are patrolling soldiers about half a mile away from the princess's residence, which is about the edge of the outer woods. Once a stranger approaches their patrol area, if they are discovered, they will be stopped and driven away."

"There are several teams patrolling. You can't tell, but every other stick of incense will appear in the area where they have appeared before."

"Those patrolling soldiers are basically armed with long guns."

Mei Qian gradually stopped as she looked at the area not far away where she could vaguely see the light of fire. In the darkness, Mei Qian could clearly hear her own heartbeat.

She turned her head and carefully identified her current location.

At this time, she was not between the Chen family and the princess' residence.

Mei Qian looked up at the dense woods above her head, and tried to change the direction of her movement.

Immediately afterwards, Mei Qian peeled off the bark from the Xirong scimitar and walked towards the outermost part of the forest.

Take one step, stop two steps.

Mei Qian held her breath and carefully identified the movement in the air. A thick and powerful step came from Mei Qian's left side.

Immediately afterwards, there was a faint sound of shouting and cursing from the distance on her right side, which seemed to indicate that Mei Erhu had started.

Mei Qian raised her head and looked at Xinyue. In the darkness, the light reflected from the scimitar was quite dazzling.

"Who is there!"

A scolding sound came from behind Mei Qian's left side as Mei Qian exposed the scimitar to the moonlight.

Mei Qian gritted her teeth, shook her head twice more, and finally heard what she wanted to hear: "It's a scimitar! It's a scimitar from Xirong!".

The next second, Mei Qian immediately ran into the depths of the dense forest with her scimitar in her arms, followed closely by the sounds of footsteps and shouts!

"stop!"

"Chase!"

Mei Qian took long strides and ran in the direction of Mei Erhu. Until the battle shouts in front gradually became clearer, Mei Qian opened her mouth and shouted "Mei Erhu" in a rough voice. Xirong dialect learned from others.

After shouting, Mei Qian directly threw the scimitar in her hand, turned at a right angle and rolled into the bushes on the side.

Although Mei Qian was prepared to be bumped and scratched by small branches and stones, when it did fall on her body, the pain was so severe that Mei Qian could only cover her mouth tightly with her hands to prevent herself from shouting.

"Ah! They have help!"

"Run!"

"Who are you?!"

"Why are you running? We have more people! Kill them!"

A messy conversation came from not far away. When Mei Qian heard these words, she immediately laughed out loud!

Really right!
Just when Mei Qian was excited, an inexplicable danger came from behind her. Mei Qian ran out without looking back, but a big hand stretched out and grabbed the back of her neck...
