Chapter 170 Encounter

Xiao Ran's deepest memory is Yangzhou cuisine. Presumably, the taste of the Tang Dynasty should not be far different. Eating in Yangzhou and playing in Suzhou and Hangzhou fully illustrates the variety of delicious food in Yangzhou. Xiao Ran couldn't help ordering a three-head banquet in Qiongyi Building near the lake. The three-headed banquet is steaming three famous traditional dishes in Yangzhou by folding silver carp head, stewing lion's head, and roasting whole pig hair.

The lion's head is not greasy, the silver carp's head tastes mellow, and the pork head is fragrant, all of which have strong local characteristics. The dish is a good dish, and employment is a good flower sculpture. The flower carving wine is soft, and the wine color is orange and yellow. It has been sweet and mellow for a long time, and it is most suitable with the light taste of Yangzhou cuisine.

"What a delicious wine, it's really mouth-watering." A shabby little beggar held a bamboo stick and sniffed hard. Generally speaking, it is impossible for a beggar to come in such a rich restaurant as Qiongyi Building. I don't know how this little beggar came in. At first, when he heard that Xiao Ran didn't hear anything wrong, he glanced at the little screaming face before smiling. Isn't Liu Xiaolai, a master of the hungry beggar gang at the Longteng Festival? Why did he come to Yangzhou again?

"Brother Liu, I just served wine and vegetables. If you don't mind coming here for a few glasses of light wine.

"Where can we not meet in life? I didn't expect to meet Mr. Xiao again. It's not easy for the little screamer to escape. With that, he poured a large bowl of flower carvings and drank it, and said with a touch of his sleeve, "Good wine."

Xiao Ran said, "Brother Liu is free and careless. I also want to join the beggar gang."

Liu Xiaolai smiled and said, "The beggar gang doesn't want Brother Xiao to be so leisurely. There are a lot of things to deal with. I'm busy. Why isn't Brother Xiao with Miss Xia? I'm still waiting for a glass of wedding wine one day.

"How can it be so simple? The eight characters haven't been skimmed yet."

Seeing that Liu Xiaolai looked absent-minded and looked left and right, Xiao Ran doubted, "Is Brother Liu looking for something?"

"Little begling, you don't have to look for it. I didn't expect you to hide here." Liu Xiaolai hasn't spoken yet, and someone has already answered first. A man and a woman came. The man was dressed in dark yellow and black patterns, and the woman was holding a long sword and a white skirt. The two actually jumped up directly from the window on the second floor. Liu Xiaolai's mind changed quickly: if he is the opponent of this man and a woman, he is sure if he adds Xiao Ran. However, I don't know Xiao Ran well, but only face to face a few times. It's not necessarily necessary to help.

"You are really haunted. You chased all the way from Yuhang to Yangzhou, which is really smarter than a dog's nose."

"The teeth are sharp, let's see if I have pulled out your teeth one by one." The man said fiercely, and at the same time, he glanced at Xiao Ran on the seat a lot, thinking about whether this person was the helper of the little screaming flower.

The woman in white said secretly, "This hall has a handle in the hand of that little flower. Don't be careless. For the sake of the long-term, it's better to kill than let go.

Fighting in the world will inevitably affect innocent people. Some timid people are afraid of not being able to avoid it. They have long run downstairs and look good at the play in their clothes. Xiao Ran picked up the vegetables and ate them slowly. He picked up the wine glass and took a bite of the flower carving: "Brother Liu, when did you hate the people of the Perak Hall in the south of the Yangtze River? Even the one from Baihua Tower came to the door." Liu Xiong looked at Xiong Anran with some doubts as to why he knew the identity of the person. I was also ordered by my teacher to talk about the Thunderbolt Hall, but I didn't expect to scare the snake and hunt them down.

"I heard that the disciples of Baihualou will embroider a peony on their sleeves, but wear white-rimmed shoes. I don't know if it's the disciple of Meilan Juzhu. Although the Thunderbolt beacon bomb is powerful, the pungent smell of sulfur is indeed too strong, destroying the fragrance of the carved wine. What a delicate observation, this is the idea that flashed in the minds of the three people at the same time. Knowing that he was still not afraid of his identity also made the two hesitate a little.

"It's just the level in the middle of the day after tomorrow, and I dare to play tricks here." The man scolded angrily and didn't see how he moved. Four or five thumb-sized black beads shot at the two of them, and the long sword in his hand followed.

"Humph, good come!" Xiong Anran snorted coldly and vowed the power of "chasing the soul". Four copper guns had a large number of Thunderbolt flares, and their wrists were half arced outward, and a silver-white dark weapon drew an arc around the sword and attacked the woman. The woman was shocked and waved her arm to change the direction of the stabbed sword and lay it across her chest. The silver-white dark weapon happened to hit the body of the sword. But it didn't stop.

The woman was surprised: "Dark energy?" Dark strength is commonly referred to as internal force. After two deep strokes, the opponent could not notice it and just broke out. She didn't expect that Xiao Ran could hit it out through the method of hidden weapons. The woman suffered a secret loss, and her busy luck was really blocked. She sneered and said, "That's all."

At the end of the words, the "bang" fine steel sword broke into two pieces, and the whole person retreated a few steps in a row: "How can it be? Where did the triple strength come from?" As soon as he fought, he was interrupted by the other party. Unexpectedly, this weak scholar turned out to be a master of hidden weapons.

"Hahaha, you are so poor that you can't even afford to buy weapons, but you can replace them with inferior weapons." Liu Xiaolai sarcastically, and was also surprised by Xiao Ran's strength. Xiong Anran was curious to try in the woods. "Chasing Soul" can see that the tree trunks make a big hole in the mouth of the bowl. Today, it was only then that the original decision was correct.

The woman looked at Xiao Ran with resentment and said, "Little scream, I don't believe that you will always follow him and withdraw."

"Brother Xiao is really hidden. Remember today's love, and if there is a chance, he will definitely repay it. I hope Brother Xiao will agree to entrust something.

Xiao Ran was not in a hurry to make a promise. He had to ask what it was. If he was worried about his life, he would naturally not take this risk and asked, "Is it related to those two just now?"

"I think the two should have gone back to find someone to help. I don't know if Brother Xiao still remembers the battle in Tangjiabao a few months ago."

Xiao Ran is the person concerned. How can he not remember clearly? "Remember, does the beggar gang suspect that it has something to do with Perak Hall and Baihua Tower?"

Liu Xiaolai nodded and said, "Now it seems that even if there is no suspicion, it can't be unrelated. It's inconvenient to say something. I have a letter here. I hope Brother Xiao will be grateful to hand it over to Sun Li, the helmsman of the Luozhou Beggar Gang. If it's not really impossible to get out, you don't have to bother Brother Xiao.

Luozhou is Xiao Ran's destination. Since it is by the way, Xiao Ran is naturally happy to do this favor: "Brother Liu trusts Xiao so much, and Xiao will definitely bring the letter."

Liu Xiaolai's face was solemn and put a letter in Xiao Ran's hand: "It's hard work. Liu has something else to do. I won't delay. Say goodbye." Looking at the leeks that didn't eat much, he sighed, put down some broken silver and left.

When Qiongyilou is pluralistic, the sound of "hism" comes from his mind. Only then did Xiao Ran remember that he had not fed the Dapeng god bird and the purple golden cloud-patterned python for a few days. The precious herbs picked in the deep mountains of southern Xinjiang have long been eaten by the two beasts. Now they can only buy them at a high price in one place. The cost of hundreds of taels at a time also makes Xiao Ran painful. Fortunately, it is to cooperate with Liu's Commercial Bank again, and the source of money will not be too tight in the future. These two beasts are Xiao Ran's life-saving things, and Xiao Ran naturally dares not neglect them. After two months of getting along, the relationship has improved. Of course, Xiao Ran will not easily expose the cards. It is often unexpected to get the best effect.

After asking passers-by for a moment, Xiao Ran led his horse to a pharmacy called Baicaotang. Jiayi wood in the east, Gengxinjin in the west, Bingding fire in the south, and Renkui water in the north. The fire will burn and the water will leak. Therefore, the workshop of the Tang Dynasty is located on the east and west sides of the town.

Baicaotang is the largest medicinal material shop in Yangzhou, located in Xifang Room, but the front hall is three feet wide, and the medicinal material box is higher than one layer. There is also an endless stream of injuries. Xiong Anran glanced at random. The prices of the most common medicinal materials such as Chuanbei, Baiwei, Buddha Hand, Poryo and Cheqiancao are about 30% higher than that of small pharmacies.

"Are there any tonics such as Ganoderma lucidum, ginseng and He Shouwu? They should be better in color and longer." Xiao Ran directly took out a 1,000 taels of silver ticket and put it on the counter. The clerk had a big business and immediately led Xiao Ran to the second floor.

"The prince will drink tea, and the shopkeeper will be there later." Xiao Ran looked around at the decoration of the room, but the owner knew how to enjoy it. Even the tea for entertaining guests was Biluochun. Unfortunately, the tea ceremony that tea makers don't understand destroys the original taste. After a long time of incense, a white old man walked in from the door, and he was at the age of his armor. Walking steadily and energeticly, obviously has research on the way of health preservation.
