The Qin Dynasty opened the Hengqu Four Sentences, sweeping away all the schools of thought

“Tsk, it smells so good!!”

"what is this?"

Jing Ke's eyes were shining, his mouth was drooling, he was swallowing saliva wildly, staring at the things on the campfire, his soul seemed to be flying away.

“This is roasted pheasant.”

Su Xuan was speechless. Was it necessary to be so exaggerated?

In such a simple environment, his cooking skills can only be displayed to less than half of their potential.

Zizi!

He turned the grill back and forth, and soon the roasted pheasant began to sizzle with oil, emitting an enticing aroma, and the skin turned a golden color, which made people's appetites grow.

"Let me taste it first!" Jing Ke was drooling so much that his mouth was almost drooling all over the floor.

He got very close, and his right hand subconsciously reached out for the roasted pheasant.

Su Xuan held his face and pushed him away.

"If you call me brother, I'll give you a roasted pheasant."

He just said it casually, but he never thought that Jing Ke would really shout it out.

"Brother!" Jing Ke grabbed a roasted pheasant without hesitation and ate it with relish, not even afraid of the heat.

Su Xuan patted his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

It is hard to imagine that this guy in front of you, who is eating with grease dripping from his mouth and doesn't care about his image at all, could be a peerless swordsman with superb swordsmanship, and even a few hours ago, he was still doing chivalrous work.

After looting all the thieves' money and traveling for half a day, Su Xuan and his companions found a place outside Handan city to take a short rest. Now they were only a few dozen miles away from Handan, and they would definitely arrive before dark.

As for the Snow Girl's performance, it was three days later, so Su Xuan was not in a hurry at all.

hiss~

good to eat!

Jing Ke ate voraciously; this was the first time he had eaten something so delicious.

It is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, oily but not greasy. When you take a bite into your mouth, the gravy overflows with juice and the taste is full. The aroma of the chicken and the spicy and fresh flavor explode on your taste buds all at once, making you unable to stop eating it at all.

In just a few moments, he had eaten the entire roasted pheasant clean, even cleaning out the chicken bones.

He patted his belly, looking satisfied and still savoring the taste.

Now that he had tasted such delicious food, he suddenly felt that all his previous life had been in vain. Even the most delicious food he had ever eaten was several levels inferior to this roasted pheasant.

They are completely different, there is no comparison at all.

Su Xuan took out the wine jug, took a sip of the wine, and ate slowly.

Delicious food and good wine are one of the greatest enjoyments in life.

"My Lord, the adaptable hero Jing Ke, is this roasted pheasant delicious?" Su Xuan asked with a smile.

Jing Ke nodded quickly, giving him the greatest affirmation.

"Of course, it's no exaggeration to call it a delicacy on earth!"

"Really?" Su Xuan smiled even more happily.

Jing Ke also had a smile on his face, but it soon stopped and his expression froze.

"But now you've finished eating!"

Su Xuan tore off a large chicken leg and ate the meat and drank wine in front of Jing Ke.

"The taste of this chicken leg is really unique, soft and delicious, with fresh meat..."

Every time he took a bite, his face was full of aftertaste, and he never forgot to comment a word or two.

The expressions are as exaggerated as possible.

Jing Ke suddenly felt as if his heart was being scratched by a cat. As delicious as it was just now, it felt as uncomfortable now.

The most important thing was that the tempting aroma rushed into his nostrils uncontrollably. He swallowed wildly, staring at the roasted chicken in Su Xuan's hand, looking at him eagerly.

"Want to eat?"

Jing Ke nodded quickly.

"Have you seen my sword case?" Su Xuan pointed at the sword case on the horse's back. "Carry it for me, and this roasted pheasant will be yours."

"No problem." For Jing Ke, this was a question that did not require any thought at all. He even felt that he had made a big profit.

One and a half roasted pheasants in exchange for a boy with a sword on his back, this deal couldn't be better!

Su Xuan nodded with satisfaction.

......

Three days later.

"Have you figured it out?"

The performance was taking place at Linglong Pavilion, and Su Xuan was sitting in a tavern opposite Linglong Pavilion.

He sat by the window and could see the entire picture of Linglong Pavilion very clearly.

This is a four-storey vermilion pavilion with carved beams and painted buildings, and it is antique. Each floor is hung with lanterns. The soft light illuminates the Linglong Pavilion, and a magnificent plaque stands in the center with three large characters written in a flamboyant style. It looks extremely impressive.

There was a constant stream of people and traffic in front of Linglong Pavilion. From time to time, carriages would stop outside the door, and people of noble status dressed in gorgeous clothes would walk out of them.

"For this performance, seats have been reserved since the beginning of the month. It is said that only those who bid the first 100 are eligible to watch the dance. And it is useless to have money but not enough status."

Jing Ke recounted the story truthfully, then frowned again, "From what I heard, the lowest bid is at least fifty gold."

“We don’t have that much money.”

As he spoke, Jing Ke subconsciously touched the knife coins and cloth coins in his arms. The money he had obtained from the bandits, added together, was only five or six gold coins.

"Besides, the seat has already been reserved. Even if you offer a higher price now, it will be useless."

"Who said I was going to make an offer?"

I am a Confucian disciple, do I need to pay to go to a brothel?

Haven't you seen that Han Fei has always been a freeloader in Zilanxuan?

As Han Fei's senior brother, how could he lag behind others?

"Do you know how they got in?" Su Xuan turned his head and glanced at Jing Ke.

"The first 100 bidders have received invitations. You can go in directly by showing the invitation."

"Follow me!" Su Xuan stood up and left without any hesitation.

Jing Ke, carrying the sword case on his back, hurried to catch up.

A quarter of an hour later, Jing Ke looked at the two wealthy businessmen who were tied up and looked terrified, and his expression was hesitant.

"Isn't this not good?"

"The Master said, 'A gentleman helps others to achieve their goals, while a villain does the opposite.'"

"They both knew that we wanted to go to Linglong Pavilion and took the initiative to send us the invitation. How could we refuse them?"

"Doesn't that make them villains?"

Even if he was just talking nonsense, he could still make his point convincingly.

"But..." Jing Ke wanted to refute.

I thought to myself that it was obviously you who got the invitation by kidnapping them.

Su Xuan looked at Jing Ke speechlessly. He took the rag out of one of the nobles' mouth and said, "Tell me, do you want to be a gentleman or a villain?"

Facing Su Xuan's murderous eyes, how could he dare to say no?

"Gentleman, I want to be a gentleman. I took the initiative to invite you to come and pick it up. It was also our request to tie us up."

I have to say, this guy is really sensible and cooperative, even beyond Su Xuan's expectations.

Jing Ke was stunned and believed it to be true.

Is there really someone in this world who makes such a strange request?

He scratched his head and still couldn't figure it out.
