CHAPTER THIRTY The Terrible Roast

Ascending was a secret, Jiang Xiaobai only wanted to let the deputy sect leader level subordinates know, so he smiled and did not reply.

Niu Shisan also realised that he had leaked it, and immediately covered his mouth with a face full of fear.

Huo Wa rolled his eyes at Niu Shisan, and muttered: ”Floral Arm is really stupid!”

Since he had decided to take root here, Jiang Xiaobai had made some arrangements regarding everyone's identity and work.

As for the accommodation, the three men were living in the west room. Although it was a bit cramped, it was barely enough. The only things that were missing were a few quilts.

This was easy to deal with. When Jiang Xiaobai returned to the real world, he would go and buy them.

As for Xiu Niang, they could not arrange anything for the time being, but at least the carriage was spacious enough, and there were only a few days worth of things inside.

Diet problems are easier to solve, there is a horse and a wolf here, the meat is too full.

All he needed was for Jiang Xiaobai to return to the real world and bring him a few bags of flour and rice.

Actually, Jiang Xiaobai hadn't eaten for an entire day and night, and was already hungry.

Xiu Niang saw it and immediately said: ”Master Cao, master's stomach is filled with hunger. Quickly cut some horse meat for Xiu Niang to roast for Master to eat.”

Roe Deer Cao immediately took action, he was truly worthy of being a hunter, with a sharp boning knife in his hand, he quickly peeled off the horse skin, and picked up seven to eight jin of the best meat from the ribs and gave it to Xiu Niang.

Using the wooden stick from the atom, Xiu Niang built a simple shelf and started a fire.

Niu Shisan was not idle either, he took the horses into the water and washed them by the river with a wooden stick.

After about half an hour, they finished washing themselves in the water. When Niu Shisan returned, he even brought back three big carp.

But Huo Wa was a little special. He bent over and left the moment Roe Deer Cao started to peel off the skin, disappearing without a trace very quickly.

Jiang Xiaobai began to feel very puzzled, thinking that there was no longer a need to fight wild beasts.

But soon, Jiang Xiaobai realized that Huo Wa was not going to hunt, but to guard.

Locust Tree Slope up high, allowing one to look north to Blizzard Village, and south to Cao family col, as long as there was wind or grass moving, it would not be able to escape Huo Wa's eyes.

To be able to think of all these, Jiang Xiaobai felt that Roe Deer Cao was not simple.

Xiu Niang was really not bragging, she was truly an expert in the culinary arts. She changed the knife, divided the skewers, barbecued the food with one hand, her movements was extremely clean, obviously doing this kind of thing frequently in the previous masters.

Fortunately, Roe Deer Cao had come out to hunt and brought some salt with him. Xiu Niang then found some wild leek in a nearby bush and wrapped it around the horse meat to make a smell.

With the sound of horse meat sizzling, Roe Deer Cao's and Niu Shisan's throats began to move. It was obvious that they were hungry as well.

”In the Liu County Order's house, Xiu Niang's barbeque skills are number one.” Being praised by the stars, Xiu Niang was very proud, and said: ”Every year, the Liu County Order will hold a barbecue party, and all the officials and nobles will gather together, it's very lively.”

Roe Deer Cao swallowed his saliva and said: ”Looking at your skills, you must have learned it from Liaoren?”

”Uncle Cao's eyesight is really good!” Xiu Niang turned the horse meat over and suddenly her expression dimmed. She cried out in grief: ”If it wasn't for the lamb that Xiu Niang roasted last night, I wouldn't have been treated by that demon Dujisizhong as a present and given to him!”

So there was such an incident, Jiang Xiaobai could not help but feel pity for Xiu Niang's background.

Roe Deer Cao laughed and said, ”Xiu Niang's words are wrong. If not for you being given as a gift, how would you be able to come to this Locust Tree Slope, and follow Master?”

”Now that you mention it, it's a good thing!” Xiu Niang immediately turned teary, she picked up a piece of meat that was roasted and handed it over to Jiang Xiaobai, and said: ”The meat is done, Master, please try it.”

It looked like the meat had been roasted until it was tender, with both the color and fragrance being good, Jiang Xiaobai couldn't help but feel hungry.
