Chapter 39 Black Market(1/2)
"The chicken soup is almost done, I'll bring it over."
Halfway through the meal, Xiaozui figured that the time was almost up, so he stood up and said something to a few people, and walked into the kitchen with a smile. After a while, he came out carrying the steaming casserole with a rag.
.
The smell of chicken became stronger and stronger. Lei Baoer, who had been immersed in eating, immediately raised his head and stared at the casserole in Xiao Zui's hand.
Place the casserole on the table, cover it with a rag and open the lid.
The aroma of the extremely rich chicken soup, accompanied by the rising steam, entered the mouths and noses of the people around the table.
"It smells so good!" Mi Long stared straight at the steaming casserole, just like when he first met Shangguan Jiici beside the Nantian Gate.
"Gulu gulu." Mi Long swallowed his saliva subconsciously.
"elder brother!"
"chicken soup!"
Xiao Zui used a spoon to spread the chicken fat floating on the surface of the chicken soup, and scooped out more than half a bowl of chicken soup for Wang Zhong.
If it were anyone else, he would have wished he could have pulled all the chicken fat floating on the surface of the chicken soup into his own bowl and drank it alone.
But Wang Zhong was different from others. He didn't drink the oil on the surface of the old hen soup, but only drank the clear soup underneath. He didn't even eat much of the chicken stewed in the soup.
Mi Long and Shangguan Jiici stared straight at the casserole, but neither of them took advantage of it.
Xiaozui scooped out a bowl of chicken soup, scooped out a chicken leg, and gave it to Lei Baoer.
In order to make the chicken stew softer and the chicken soup richer, Xiaozui did not stew the whole chicken directly, but cut the chicken into large pieces, stir-fried it, and then added the mushrooms to stew it together.
"Thank you, Aunt Zui!"
"You're welcome, eat quickly!" Xiao Zui said with a smile.
"Sister Shangguan, brother Milong, don't just watch, eat quickly!"
Xiaozui saw that neither of them took action, so he hurriedly greeted them.
Mi Long quickly stood up, scooped out a bowl of chicken soup full of chicken fat, mixed with two pieces of chicken, but did not eat it himself, but handed it to Shangguan Jiici next to him: "Wife, you eat first."
Shangguan Jiici turned his head to look at Mi Long, and couldn't help but smile on his face, but he did not take the bowl handed over by Mi Long and said: "You eat first, you have been on the other side for so long, and you haven't even had a few good meals."
!”
Mi Long was stunned for a moment, then his heart felt warm, and his eyes when he looked at Shangguan Jiici were full of tenderness.
But at this moment, the sound of Wang Zhong tapping the edge of the bowl with his chopsticks sounded at an inappropriate time.
"Okay, let's eat first. If anything happens, we can talk about it after we finish our meal."
After eating and drinking, Shangguan Jiici took the initiative to take over the job of washing dishes and cleaning up. Normally, Xiaozui would never let her do this alone, but today Wang Zhong finally came back, and Xiaozui was full of food.
I wanted to tell Wang Zhong, but I didn’t go to help Shangguan Jieci.
"Brother, are you going back to the military camp tonight or staying at home?"
"Go back to the military camp!" Wang Zhong pondered for a moment and then said: "We have just come back and have a lot of things to deal with. It is more convenient to live in the military camp."
Hearing Wang Zhong's words, Xiaozui's eyes couldn't help but flash a bit of disappointment.
Wang Zhong said again: "Don't worry, I will come back to see you as soon as I have time!"
"Don't slack off at home. Remember everything I teach you. After a while, I will look for connections and see if I can get you into the field hospital."
"Field hospital?" Xiaozui was stunned. This was something she had never thought of before. She had thought that Wang Zhong taught her how to identify medicines and make medicine, and that he wanted her to set up a small medical clinic and do some small business in patent medicines. She never went there at all.
Field hospitals have considered this aspect.
"After entering the field hospital, we will meet more often in the future, and we can also contribute to the cause of the Anti-Japanese War together."
"Of course, if you don't want to, just pretend I didn't say this!"
"No!" As soon as Wang Zhong finished speaking, Xiao Zui immediately said excitedly: "I do."
"I'm just worried. I'm clumsy. If I really end up in a field hospital and make a mistake at work, not only will I injure the wounded soldiers, but I might also injure you..." Xiao Zui said with some anxiety.
Wang Zhong smiled and raised his hand and rubbed her head again: "I mean, this may not be possible yet. After all, your brother is just a small battalion commander of the local army. It doesn't matter that he has no background. He wants to go to the field field."
It’s not that easy to fill the hospital with people.”
"Brother, you have made so many contributions in Myanmar. The superiors will definitely reward you this time. Maybe in a few days, you will no longer be a battalion commander, but a regiment commander!"
"I'm afraid it's not that easy."
"Huh?" Xiao Zui looked at Wang Zhong in confusion: "What's not so easy?"
"nothing!"
In the evening, Wang Zhong took the reluctant Mi Long and returned to the old shelter that served as the temporary residence of the Third Battalion.
"Yu Xiaoqing sent someone over just now and asked you to come over and ask you something."
As soon as Wang Zhong entered the shelter, a few people from Bu La and Yao Nu She Butt came up to him.
"You have something to ask me? Why do you need to invite me over?" Wang Zhong muttered to himself in confusion.
Several people shook their heads and said nonchalantly: "I don't know, but Chief Ayi and Shi La Shi La have already passed."
"When did they go?"
"A few hours ago! It wasn't dark yet."
The king nodded and said: "It must not be an important matter, otherwise, they would have gone to Chanda City to look for me."
Wang Zhong ignored it, found a corner, spread straw, sat cross-legged, and went straight into deep meditation.
After hundreds of years in the dungeon world, the true energy in Wang Zhong's body has become extremely pure and powerful. There is no longer a need for Wang Zhong to practice martial arts deliberately. When walking, sitting or lying down, the true energy in his body circulates spontaneously.
Meditation only allowed Cao Lin to relax his mind, make his spiritual platform clear, and enter a deeper sleep.
"Milong, have you found your wife and child?" As soon as Wang Zhong left, everyone's attention focused on Milong.
"That's necessary!"
"Oh! You didn't run away?"
"impossible!"
"People must have thought that he died on Nantianmen and had remarried long ago, becoming his wife and children."
The cannon fodders said something to each other, and they all started sarcastic and sarcastic towards the dragon.
Normally, Mi Long would have either responded unceremoniously or slapped him in the face, but today he changed his past behavior and didn't take the cynicism of the crowd to heart at all.
It wasn't until everyone looked at him that Mi Long waved his hands and said proudly: "You are a bunch of bastards. I have a wife now. I am too lazy to meet you. I envy you to death!"
After saying that, he walked straight to Wang Zhong who was sitting cross-legged in the corner, pulled the straw a few times, patted it, and then lay down on it with a smile on his face.
"What a bastard! His mother-in-law won't really bring his cheap son to live in Boss Wang's house, will she?"
"Of course!" Snake's butt swayed into the room: "Why else would he come back with Boss Wang so late?"
"I can smell the chicken soup smell all over his body from a long distance away."
Snake Butt is the chief cook and chief of staff of the third battalion, and he also oversees No. 7 or 8 people. He just came back from Burma, and he got a bone-cutting knife from somewhere and put it behind his butt. It's too precious.
"By the way, why haven't you, Shila, Shila, and Chief Ayi come back yet?"
"It seems true?"
"They seem to have been there for a long time, right?"
"Isn't it because he was detained by Yu Xiaoqing?"
“It’s really hard to say!”
"Boss Wang made Yu Xiaoqing suffer a lot today. If we can't protect him, Yu Xiaoqing is thinking about how to get revenge."
"I heard that Yu Xiaoqing didn't have a big idea. He chopped off the head of the battalion commander in charge of Jiang Defense with his own hands."
Everyone's eyes turned to Bu La next to them.
Bu La was so scared that everyone was looking at him. He shivered and hurriedly took a few steps back, trying to avoid everyone's gaze: "Have you all seen what I did?"
"When we pointed a gun at Yu Xiaoqing today, you were the one who shouted the loudest!"
"I shouted the loudest when I shouted. My dragon's voice was no louder than mine!"
"Lazi! You should pay more attention to yourself and don't let Yu Xiaoqing find any reason to kill you!" Yaoma Taishou, who has always been inseparable from Bu La, patted Bu La's shoulder and comforted her.
"Bless yourself!" Fanla walked to Bu La, dragging her stumped leg in a circle, and then walked over after leaving her words behind.
Next came Kang Ya, Snake Buttocks. Even Sangmen Xing, who usually didn't talk much, left the word "sorrow" behind when he walked past her.
The veterinarian only patted his shoulder. Although he didn't say anything, the meaningful look in his eyes made Bu La couldn't help but feel frightened.
Early the next morning, Zhang Lixian and He Shuguang drove Yu Xiaoqing's car to the shelter again.
"Where is your Deputy Battalion Commander Wang?"
Since the confrontation outside Zenda City that day, there has been a conflict between Zhang Lixian, the elite confidants of Master Yu, and the cannon fodder.
"The battalion commander left early in the morning."
