Chapter 144 Chicken blood soup?
After walking around Todaji Temple, I saw the yamen runners questioning passersby casually.
Baoyue chuckled and said, "It's been several days since the matter has passed. What's the use of asking passersby here?"
After entering the city, Baoyue knew that Shu Kuo was killed. Without planning to eliminate evil, Baoyue did not rush to leave and stayed in the city to wait for the arrival of the three sisters.
Li Luojie also said: "The murderer killed someone and had already escaped. Could it be that he still stayed in the city and was waiting to be arrested?"
"Young Master Kuo is powerful and powerful, so you have to deal with it for a few more days before you can pass it through." Li Luotang said with a narrow smile.
"That's right." Baoyue smiled in agreement.
Around Todaji Temple, there are many stalls selling food, golden pasta fried in the oil pan and fragrant sesame cakes grilled in the charcoal stove.
This caused Li Luotang to rush his index finger, but before she could speak, Baoyue asked, "Sister Li, are you hungry?"
Facing Baoyue's anticipated gaze, Li Luotang said as she wished: "Yeah, I'm hungry."
"I'll treat you to chicken blood soup." Baoyue couldn't wait in her tone.
"Okay, thank you Sister Bao." Li Luotang recognized Baoyue's character and changed her name to her.
The two hit it off and lined up at the stall selling chicken blood soup.
Li Luojie laughed in silence.
There were three small tables and nine stools, and there were quite a lot of customers. After waiting for a while, the three of them arrived at the seat and each of them ordered a bowl of chicken blood soup.
In the chicken blood soup, in addition to chicken blood, there are also chicken liver, chicken gizzards, and chicken intestines.
Baoyue seemed to cover up her greed and explained: "I heard that this chicken blood soup has medicinal effects."
"I heard that there was an emperor in the previous dynasty who was overworked and did not want to eat and did not want to eat. It was because of drinking this chicken blood soup that his appetite increased greatly, and he was strong and radiant." Li Luotang had seen allusions about chicken blood soup in his travel notes.
"It's so good, then we have to drink a few more bowls. As the saying goes, this medicine is worse than food supplements." Baoyue said immediately.
Li Luotang nodded in agreement.
"At noon, you two are not planning to have a meal?" Li Luojie reminded the two.
"It's still early until noon." The two women spoke in unison.
As soon as they finished speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled.
However, the stall owner was doing business and did a real job. After eating a bowl of chicken blood soup, the two of them were full. They could only say regretfully: "Come and eat it tomorrow."
The three of them continued shopping. In addition to selling food, use and fun stalls on both sides of the road.
There are children playing rattles, chicken feather shuttlecocks, mud dolls, birds and insects that the young master likes to play with, and the girls like to be rouge powder, embroidered handkerchiefs, silk threads, etc.
I saw a group of people ahead from afar, and I don’t know what to watch.
Li Luotang and Baoyue went there tacitly without discussing it. There were too many people, and Li Luotang raised his chin, "Brother, open the way."
Li Luojie accepted his fate and opened the way for the two women, "Give it one, let it one."
The three of them squeezed in and saw that it turned out to be a girl with long dirty hair and filial piety on her back, kneeling there.
She lowered her head and couldn't see her appearance clearly.
The thin and small one is about eight or nine years old.
There was a piece of paper in front of the girl, which read: "I went to a relative but lived in a foreign land and suffered a sudden change. My father passed away from the world and had no money to be buried. The little girl was willing to sell herself, only asking for ten taels of silver to buy a coffin to bury her father."
The handwriting is fresh and neat, it should be written by the gentleman who sold characters on the street, who pityed her and wrote it for her.
"We bought her?" Baoyue whispered.
"Okay." Li Luotang agreed.
But before the two of them came forward, they heard a frivolous voice saying, "Little girl, raise your head and let me take a look."
The girl's body shook, and the sound didn't sound like a good person at first. However, if she wanted to sell herself to bury her father, it was impossible for the buyer to see her, so she could only slowly raise her head.
The girl looks pretty, but her eyes are red and swollen, pitiful.
"Oh, this little figure looks pretty good." The slutty young man who asked her to look up just now touched his chin and said lustfully.
"Jiu Shao, you have picked up the treasure this time. This kind of rural girl must have a unique taste when playing with it." A man with a sharp mouth and a monkey cheek next to him said with a smirk.
When the girl heard this, she lowered her head in shame and anger, tears slid down her cheeks and fell on the bluestone floor.
"Damn it." Baoyue cursed and was about to be a hero.
"Wait." Li Luotang grabbed her arm, "Look at how bad he can be?"
If you don’t have time to inquire about what you do in your daily life, then decide how to deal with him based on the current situation.
But there are too many monsters and monsters in Kaifeng Prefecture.
Baoyue held back and didn't take action, but saw the young master throwing a ingot of silver in front of the girl, "Get up, go back with the young master."
The silver ingot was only about three or four taels.
Baoyue gritted her teeth and said, "It's too much."
The girl didn't go to get the money or get up. She just kept kowtowing.
Everyone understood what she meant, and they were unwilling to sell themselves to Jiuxiao.
"What? Are you thinking that you are too young?" Ji Shao glared and asked fiercely.
"Little girl, be obedient and you will benefit from serving the young master." said the sharp-mouthed monkey cheek.
The girl still didn't say anything, and kowtowed while crying. She couldn't walk with the young master.
Li Luotang and Baoyue walked out at the same time without discussing it. Baoyue went to help the girl, "Don't kowtow to such things, go with us. We will take care of your father's funeral for you."
Li Luotang picked up the silver ingot, raised it casually, and sprinkled the medicine powder on the Ji Shao and the gangsters who were talking to him.
Itchy, itchy, and itchy, so few people start to scratch it, but the more they scratch it, the more itchy it becomes, the more itchy it becomes.
Li Luotang asked with a smile: "Is it itchy? Do you want the antidote?"
Ji Shao had already scratched his face and almost glared out, "I want an antidote, I want an antidote."
"I am a person who is easy to talk to. It is not difficult to get an antidote. As long as you can pay enough money to buy medicine, I will give the antidote." Li Luotang was a little excited. He hadn't started a business for a long time.
The monkey-cheeked couple immediately took out the money they had on their bodies and held it in front of Li Luotang, "Young hero, do you think this is enough?"
"Not enough." Li Luotang looked at the strings of money and curled his lips. It was just that little, not enough for her to make medicine. "Sister Bao, let's go."
Baoyue pulled the girl and was about to leave.
"Young hero, I have money." Jia Shao quickly took out money from his arms, but it was less than one hundred taels.
"Sister, beware of the intimidation of the dog." Li Luojie walked over and whispered to remind him.
Although the skills of the three of them are not afraid of these gangsters, a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake.
Li Luotang followed her brother's words, took out a small paper bag and threw it to Ji Shao, "This is the antidote. When you go back, wash it with salt water."
Wash with salt water to relieve itching, and there is no antidote.
But Li Luotang would not say the truth.
