Chapter Eleven What is a hero?

After being urged to practice basic skills all afternoon, Lantian didn't have time to continue telling stories to the two of them, but Gao and Lu were very content after having a dinner.

When Lu Lingqi returned to Xiaopei City, it was already past dinner time, and Mrs. Yan specially left food for her daughter.

Because Lu Bu had opened a golden mouth in front of him, no one would blame Lu Lingqi for returning home late.

"Lingqi, are you back now? Did you go to Ganjiazhuang to listen to stories again? I'll have someone heat up the food," said Yan.

"Don't bother mother, General Gao and I have already eaten at the village." Lu Lingqi replied.

"Have you eaten? Farm food should be very rough, can you eat it?" Yan asked worriedly.

"She can eat it, and I heard it tastes very good." At this time, Lu Bu opened the door and came in. Gao Shun had already reported today's situation to him.

"Father..."

"General..."

Yan took off his armor for Lu Bu. After he sat down, he looked at his embarrassed daughter and asked, "Why didn't you listen to the story today and instead taught me martial arts?"

"I thought that Lan Ziyu was too weak, so I had a good heart..." Lu Lingqi explained.

"If you want to be taught, teach well and don't lose your reputation as a father." Lu Bu warned.

Because of Lan Tian's unintentional words, this military commander who looked down upon the world developed a good impression of this junior whom he had never met before.

"I see..."

"Okay, go back to your room and have a rest. I heard that you have to catch breakfast tomorrow morning, so don't get up." Lu Bu said with a smile.

Lu Lingqi blushed at being told, "Then I'll go back to my room first. Father, mother, you guys should go to bed early..."

"General, are you too indulgent of your daughter? Although Lingqi has a heroic personality, she is still a girl's family after all. Before she got married, she frequently hung out with farm boys, which may cause gossip in the future..." Yan said worriedly after Lu Lingqi left.

Lu Bu poured a glass of wine on the small table, and then said boldly: "It's a woman's opinion. That Lan Ziyu is not a simple farm boy. It's a pity that he can't be used by me now. It won't hurt Lingqi to be friends with him."

, Besides, you have Gao Boping with you, what do you have to worry about? Huangtu Hegemony is chatting and laughing, and life is a drunken experience..."

When Yan saw that Lu Bu was making bold remarks after drinking, he did not dare to persuade him anymore.

Early the next morning, Lu Lingqi and Gao Shun arrived at Ganjiazhuang.

"Lan Ziyu and we are here, what delicious food have we prepared this morning?" Lu Lingqi shouted loudly as soon as she reached the small courtyard at the door.

Lan Ziyu was living and cooking at this time. He heard the shouting and walked out wearing a homemade apron, "Why is it so early? You haven't eaten yet?"

Lu Lingqi almost laughed when she saw this guy dressed up, "Isn't this to urge you to practice Kung Fu? Where can I find time to eat? You can also prepare one for us. We are hungry after running all the way."

Gao Shun looked around in embarrassment at this time, thinking that the lady's reason for eating and drinking seemed not enough.

"Okay, anyway, I just need two more sets of bowls and chopsticks, but you have to come in and help me." Lan Tian explained the conditions.

"Help? I can go into battle and kill the enemy, but I can't make a fire and cook." Lu Lingqi spread her hands and said.

"You can learn anything, I can teach you." Lan Tian said.

"You can't learn..." Lu Lingqi refused.

"How is it possible that I can't learn it? I can train martial arts with you with my physique, so why can't you learn to cook with me?" Lan Tian immediately retorted, thinking that my gold medal instructor Lan Ziyu can't even teach me how to cook.

You? If it weren’t for the limited ingredients and lack of recipes, I would have no problem teaching you a Manchu-Han banquet.

Lan Tian used his spear to attack his shield. Lu Lingqi didn't know how to refute. Gao Shun was speechless as he listened, thinking that Lan Ziyu was really smart and quick.

Lu Lingqi followed her into the kitchen. She originally complained that her clothes would be stained, but Lan immediately took off her apron and gave it to her.

"You are in charge of lighting the fire now. We will eat corn porridge in the morning. You have to put in the firewood slowly to prevent the fire from getting too big. Do you understand?" Lantian said while demonstrating.

"I know..." Lu Lingqi said impatiently.

Since there were two more people to eat, Lantian mixed some corn noodles and planned to make some steamed buns and steam them on the second stove. It didn't matter if he ate less, but Lu Lingqi and Gao Shun were both martial arts practitioners, so it would be a big deal if they couldn't eat enough.

I get hungry quickly.

Lantian lived in the countryside when he was young and was very familiar with the living habits of farmers. Some good life skills were also brought to this world by him.

After Ganji and his daughter went to Xiapi to enjoy the blessings, Lantian changed the kitchen to a continuous stove. The first stove cooks rice and stir-fries, the second stove steams rice and hot vegetables, and the third stove boils water and washes pots. This way, the heat energy converted from firewood can be fully utilized.

.

Lu Lingqi resisted at first, but after burning for a while she found it quite interesting. The warm firelight made her face flush. She didn't remember Lan Tian's words at all, and kept feeding the firewood into the stove.

Lantian made steamed buns from noodles very quickly, but because they were not sold out, the quality of the corn buns was not so good. When he put the steamed buns on the steamer, he realized something was wrong. Why was the flame in the second stove so strong?

The man immediately opened the lid of the pot on the stove and saw that the water in the pot had almost dried up and the corn porridge had almost turned into rice.

At this time, adding water to remedy the problem did not help. Lu Lingqi saw that the corn porridge was burned like this, and she was embarrassed and ran outside to rest. Lantian took out the dried corn porridge and added some water to prevent the bottom of the pot from burning through.

After a while, Lan Tian brought the corn porridge and steamed buns to the table, along with a plate of chopped cabbage stalks.

The steamed buns are dry and the porridge is difficult to swallow. Fortunately, there are refreshing pickled cabbage stalks. Biting into a piece immediately makes your mouth water.

"Why is this cabbage stem so crunchy? It seems to taste better than frying or boiling." Lu Lingqi picked up a piece of cabbage stem and said.

"This is made by soaking in salt water. We farmers call this 'pickled vegetable'." Lan Tian explained.

"General Gao, have you ever eaten kimchi before?" Lu Lingqi asked.

Gao Shun ate with peace of mind and shook his head decisively after hearing this. How many good meals had he had in so many years in the army? Although the food at Lantian's house was not sumptuous, it tasted really good.

After a simple breakfast, Lantian was still a little sore. In the morning, he continued to tell the two of them about The Legend of the Condor Heroes. His mouth became dry after talking about it, and he practiced basic skills under Lu Lingqi's supervision. In the evening, the two of them had dinner before returning.

Go to the city.

For the next few days, we would eat, tell stories, practice exercises, and repeat.

During this period, dealers often brought eggs, vegetables and other agricultural products, which made Lu Lingqi and Gao Shun very surprised, thinking that this blue jade was so loved by the villagers.

At noon on the fifth day, Lan Tian talked about the sword debate in Mount Huashan, the death of Genghis Khan, and the story of the Legend of the Condor Heroes came to an end.

The two listeners each had their own thoughts in their minds, and they both sat there and thought about it carefully.

Lu Lingqi was very satisfied with the ending that Guo Jing did not become the Golden Sword Consort, but chose to stay with Huang Rong.

However, Gao Shun waited for a while before saying: "Guo Jing is a man of love and righteousness. He is truly a great hero in the world..."

Seeing that both of them had realized something, Lan Tian suddenly thought of Gao Shun's final outcome and felt it was a pity, so he said more eloquently: "As Guo Jing said: A hero who is admired by the world and admired by future generations must be someone who benefits the people and cares for them.

It has nothing to do with how many people are killed..."

"Although Guo Jing's words are good, they are not applicable to the current world. The world is in chaos right now. I, a warrior, don't know how to benefit the people. I can only be loyal to my lord..." Gao Shun sighed.

"The sun, moon and stars in the sky all perform their own duties. How can there be perfect people on earth? General Gao doesn't know how to benefit the people of Li, so he can just end this troubled times with people who understand, isn't it?" Lan Tian said with a smile.

Gao Shun was silent after hearing this, wondering who could end this troubled world?
