Chapter 1535: Not entering the tiger’s den (a meow curled up into a ball with squinting eyes)
Facts have proved that Shang Xiuxun really loves to eat. She spent a day writing a booklet, which not only listed the delicacies of each place, but also specified which restaurant and which chef made which dish. Authentic and delicious. It was even more detailed than those food guides, and Duanmu Huai was very satisfied after reading it.
After having this food diary, Duanmu Huai no longer needs to wander around like a headless fly. He only needs to follow the tips above.
Shang Xiuxun also told Duanmu Huai that in normal times, these chefs would not move around in their own places. But now the war is in chaos, and these chefs cannot escape from it. Especially those famous chefs are more likely to be captured by the rebel leaders to cook.
But Duanmu Huai doesn't care, as long as he makes sure that the person is there, it doesn't matter whether the other party does it for him or not.
Even if those rebel leaders capture each other, Duanmu Huai believes that as long as he comes to his door and expresses his desire to have a meal with the chef, these rebel leaders will not refuse.
If he dared to refuse, that would be another matter.
Duanmu Huai and Shang Xiuxun thought about it and decided to go to Luoyang first. Because it is more prosperous, and important cities like Luoyang Chang'an are more stable than other places, and there are more famous chefs and restaurants.
After demarcating the route, Duanmu Huai planned to say goodbye and leave, but Shang Xiuxun hesitated slightly and finally spoke.
"I heard that your Excellency is proficient in the art of Qi Huang, and he once cured the three heroes Yu Daiyan who had been disabled for several years in Bei Wulin. Is this possible?"
"That's right."
Duanmuhuai had already begun to think about the menu after going to Luoyang, so he replied casually.
"To be honest, the ranch actually took in a distinguished guest a few days ago, but her situation is very special..."
Shang Xiuxun said while looking at Duanmuhuai and others.
"So you want me to go take a look? What's going on?"
"I don't know the specific situation."
Shang Xiuxun shook his head, and then began to explain in detail to Duan Muhuai.
As the largest force in this area, Pegasus Ranch naturally has to protect the surrounding villages, so it often conflicts with those horse thieves. The cause of the incident was that the ranch received a request for help from a nearby village, saying that it had been attacked by horse thieves. Therefore, the ranch hurriedly sent people to rescue, but they arrived a step too late. The entire village had been burned and looted by the horse thieves. The patrol team was so angry that they followed the traces and chased it. The two sides fought a fierce battle. In the end, the patrol team defeated the horse thieves and recaptured it. They found the food and property they had stolen—and a girl in a yellow shirt.
At that time, the patrol thought she was a survivor captured by horse thieves, so they brought her back. But then, something strange happened.
The girl in yellow shirt has been unconscious.
At first, everyone thought she had been hit, but later they began to wonder if someone had tapped her acupuncture points. However, neither Shang Xiuxun nor the elders at the ranch could unlock her acupuncture points. Instead, they His inner strength was completely exhausted, and he even almost went crazy.
The weirder thing is yet to come - most people cannot go without eating or drinking, but the girl has been in a coma for several days, without drinking any water or touching any rice. However, her appearance was still bright and beautiful, and she didn't look haggard at all.
Not only that, the girl was extremely beautiful... Although she was not as good as Wang Yuyan and Xiao Longnu, she was still stunningly beautiful. Almost all the men on the ranch couldn't walk away when they saw her, and many of them even hesitated. I put down my work to see her, as if I was fascinated. In the end, Shang Xiuxun had to order the girl to be locked up in the side yard, and men were strictly prohibited from entering.
In fact, there are rumors in the ranch that the girl is not a human at all, but an incarnation of a monster. Otherwise, how could an ordinary person go without food or water for several days and still look like Sleeping Beauty? Shang Xiuxun couldn't do anything about it, because the other party's breathing was long and melodious, and it looked like she was asleep at first glance, but he couldn't wake her up no matter what...
Before doing this, Shang Xiuxun didn't believe in the legends about gods, ghosts and monsters, but after seeing Wang Yuyan and Xiao Longnu's skills of wielding thunder and sword with his own eyes, um... maybe he still believed it?
If the girl in yellow is really a monster, I can't handle it myself, so I'd better let these immortals handle it.
"Oh?"
After listening to Shang Xiuxun's description, Duanmu Huai suddenly became energetic.
"Is there such a thing? Come on, take me to see you. I'm a professional at dealing with vixens."
Duanmu Huai is very confident that he can divide the yin and yang once, determine the world with two, and destroy the spirit with the third. No matter what kind of foxy monster he is, he can only surrender obediently in front of his Ruyi Golden Cudgel.
This is much better than his disciple Sun Wukong.
Shang Xiuxun spent a day with Duanmu Huai, and almost figured out his temperament. He knew that this immortal god of killing didn't care much about etiquette, nor did he care about worldly opinions. So she didn't say much, and soon led Duanmu Huai and others to the room where the woman was placed in the side yard.
"This is it."
Shang Xiuxun opened the door, walked to the bed, then opened the curtain and took a look inside. "She is still sleeping, and it is already the tenth day. To be honest, I am a little doubtful. This time the four major bandits attacked the Pegasus Ranch, and their offensive was far greater than before. Maybe they came here just for this girl. But no matter what No matter how much I check, I can't find out her details, and looking at her dress, she doesn't look like an ordinary villager..."
After listening to Shang Xiuxun's explanation, Duanmu Huai stepped forward and carefully looked at the girl in front of him.
Her eyes were closed tightly, as if she was falling into a deep sleep, and her body with beautiful curves rose and fell with her breathing, as if she was simply falling into a deep sleep. Her hair is jet black and her skin is like snow, with a crystal clear and elastic texture. In terms of temperament, she is different from Wang Yuyan and Xiao Longnu. The latter two are representatives of people who like silence and dislike movement. However, although the girl in front of her is sleeping, just by looking at her elf-like facial features and temperament, you can tell I imagine she should be the playful and active type.
But Duanmuhuai already knew who she was.
Haha, if you haven't run away yet, then don't even think about running away.
Thinking of this, Duanmuhuai reached out his hand, grabbed the girl, and then lifted her up from the bed without caring about the differences between men and women. Even though she was held by Duanmu Huai's big hand, the girl still had no intention of waking up, just like a doll.
"I took her away."
Duanmuhuai grabbed the girl, said something to Shang Xiuxun, and then turned around and left. Facing Duanmuhuai's unreasonable tactics, Shang Xiuxun was also stunned. However, when she walked out of the room, Duanmuhuai and the two women had already disappeared.
After leaving Pegasus Ranch, Duanmuhuai opened the mage's mansion and led the two of them inside. And they were also very curious about the girl caught in Duanmu Huai's hand. As for whether Duanmu Huai was interested in her, the two women were not worried. After all, they and Duanmu Huai had seen many beauties along the way. Well, except for Wang Yuyan and Xiao Longnu, Duanmu Huai doesn't seem to be particularly interested in other beauties. Now he brings this mysterious girl in yellow back...
"Sir, is she really a vixen?"
Wang Yuyan asked curiously, while Duanmu Huai chuckled.
"Can you tell if you touch it? Maybe you can touch a furry paw."
"Huh? Really?"
Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, Wang Yuyan was stunned for a moment, but cautiously reached out and touched the little hand of the girl in yellow shirt.
"Does it feel no different from my hand?"
"But how come she hasn't woken up?"
Xiao Longnu was obviously more concerned about another issue.
"Even if a certain kind of internal power may have such an effect, it is impossible to not eat or drink for ten days and still be full of energy. And I just checked that her body is extremely empty, and she does not look like someone who has practiced martial arts at all. Is it really What monster is causing trouble?
"I'll tell you when she wakes up."
Duanmuhuai laughed and then returned to the bedroom.
"I'm going to get rid of the demon. You guys go back and rest. You'll be fine tomorrow morning."
Although the two of them were also curious about what Duanmu Huai was going to do, since Duanmu Huai didn't take them with him, they didn't pay much attention and went straight back to their room to rest.
Duanmuhuai entered the bedroom and threw the girl in yellow clothes up like an object.
Then there were only a few soft "tearing" sounds, and the yellow cedar wrapped around his body turned into pieces. Duanmuhuai also put his hands on his hips, raised his gun, and sneered at the figure who was still lying on the bed like a doll without any movement. .
"It's so interesting, so interesting."
As he spoke, Duanmu Huai stretched out his hand and once again grabbed the motionless body like a doll. He pressed the two-foot-long red spear against the middle door, intending to abandon the foreplay and go straight to the center!
At this moment, the girl suddenly opened her eyes, and swung her two small snow-white hands forward with infinite power, directly hitting Duanmu Huai's chest.
This blow was so unexpected, and the tyrannical internal force was enough to make a master-level expert vomit blood and die. The force contained in it could even crack gold and stone. However, the body of Duanmu Huai who was hit did not move. On the contrary, he stared at the girl in front of him, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't get the tiger's cubs, right? I gave you a chance, but you didn't run away."
At this moment, a trace of panic finally appeared on the girl's face. She flashed her body and wanted to distance herself from Duanmuhuai, turning around and running away. However, just as her figure flashed, Duanmu Huai opened her right hand towards her, and then the girl suddenly felt a strong suction emerging from behind her, and then her eyes blurred, and when she came back to consciousness , she had been grabbed by Duanmu Huai's head and pushed to the ground.
"But I have to tell you something now, little one."
Duanmu Huai came close to the girl's ear, as if a ferocious tiger opened its bloody mouth.
"Most of the time, the little sheep that enter the tiger's den will be eaten by the tiger. Don't you want tiger cubs? I have plenty here! You're welcome, take them all!"
