Chapter 1606: Is It Too Much? Is It Really Cooked?

"Chou Chou, ask Abi, where is Abi's hometown?" Ji Nanzheng said.

Chou Chou hesitated and repeated his grandfather's words, but the green snake in the cage did not respond.

Chou Chou looked at his great-grandfather, flattened his lips and said, "Abi is silent."

Ji Nanzheng expected this and said with a cold face: "Then tell it that it will eat snake soup tonight!"

Chou Chou had never eaten snake soup, so she didn't know if it was delicious, but she still told Abi honestly.

Then I saw Abi suddenly raise her upper body, hissing at the old man outside the cage, her eyes were cold and dangerous!

Chou Chou frowned when he saw this, and patted the top of the cage: "Abi can't be aggressive to Grandpa, Grandpa loves Chou Chou, Abi is aggressive to Grandpa, Chou Chou doesn't like Abi."

The little green snake seemed to be a little frustrated because his identity was revealed. He didn't want to pretend to be good friends with the little girl, so he spit out the letter and hissed at the little girl twice.

Now Chou Chou was a little angry: "Grandpa won't eat Abi, but when grandpa speaks, Abi has to listen. Grandpa is the most knowledgeable person in the family, and mother has to listen to grandpa. If Abi doesn't listen, Abi is not a good child. My brother said that children who are not good children will be eaten by monsters when they sleep at night. "

The little green snake was probably impatient with the little girl's childish talk. He turned his back and pointed the snake's tail at her. As if attacking, his upper body slowly slid down and coiled himself up into a roll.

Before Ji Nanzheng said anything, Chou Chou became angry. He jumped off the stone bench, stared at the little green snake in the cage and said, "Chou Chou doesn't like Abi anymore!"

After saying that, he stomped towards the house with shaky steps.

Ji Nanzheng raised his eyebrows when he saw this, his eyes fixed on the little green snake. Then he calmly stood up, carried the cage, and went to the kitchen.

At first, the little green snake thought very highly of himself and showed an attitude of never giving in.

But when Ji Nanzheng ordered people to start boiling water and took out a snake knife to make signs, the little green snake began to feel uneasy.

It spat at the old man: "Hiss, hiss..."

Ji Nanzheng ignored him and didn't look at the little green snake at all. He just stared at the water in the pot, waiting for the water to boil.

The little green snake neighed so hard that its mouth went dry. It squealed for a while. When it got tired, it rolled itself into a ball and stuck it against the corner of the cage, making it look like it couldn't get out.

After a while, it didn't matter whether it could get out or not, because Ji Nanzheng turned the cage upside down and slapped it directly into the hot water.

The little green snake twisted wildly and was about to free the pot in the blink of an eye.

With quick eyes and quick hands, Ji Nanzheng closed the wooden lid. The sound of "hissing" could still be heard through the lid.

Snakes don't die easily. If you cut it into two sections, it will still struggle for a while. So after about a quarter of an hour, when Ji Nanzheng opened the lid, he saw the little green snake that was already red and was dying. On the water, I have no strength to move.

Ji Nanzheng took a large colander, fished out the whole snake, put it in the cage, and looked at it through the cage.

The little green snake recovered for a long time, but it didn't show any signs of improvement. Ji Nanzheng was a little unsure, had it gone too far, was it really familiar?

While he was hesitating, the little green snake stood up and used its last breath of strength to hiss at Ji Nanzheng as if to threaten him.

Ji Nanzheng felt relieved when he saw it like this. He sat leisurely on a chair aside and hummed a tune casually.

When the little green snake was brought back and asked Chou Chou to translate, the little green snake's attitude became much better.

Chou Chou still remembered Abi scolding her great-grandpa, so she didn't like to talk to Abi, but her great-grandfather asked her to come over, and she had to listen to her great-grandfather, so she came over anyway.

But this time she asked Abi where her hometown was.

Abi said.

"Liaozhou, Puru County." After Chou Chou finished speaking, he looked at his great grandfather in confusion and asked, "Where is that?"

Liaozhou is adjacent to two rivers. It is in the upper reaches of Anjiang River and not far from the sea. Common water bandits and pirates also hang out there.

After all, Ji Nanzheng had been a court official, and he was very familiar with the geography and customs of Xianyan Kingdom.

"What's the name of its owner?"

Chou Chou asked Abi again.

This time the little green snake hesitated for a long time before speaking loudly.

"No?" When Chou Chou said it, he felt weird.

But after saying this sound, Ji Nanzheng suddenly raised his eyes: "Mula tribe?"

Chou Chou nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, this is it."

The Mula people are not from the Xianyan Kingdom, but from the Zhenyang Kingdom, which is across the sea from the Xianyan Kingdom. The Zhenyang Kingdom is an auxiliary country of the Xianyan Kingdom. They pay tribute every year and respect the Xianyan Kingdom very much.

So those water bandits are not from Xianyan country, but from foreigners?

Maybe even...a royal descendant of the True Yang Kingdom?

Ji Nanzheng fell into deep thought.

It is not unusual for a small country to surrender to another big country. However, this small country, which is not as big as the state capital of Xianyan Country, dares to send the sons and daughters of the royal family to invade other countries' territories, even to the border where barbarians are everywhere. The ambition in this plot is thought-provoking.

Ji Nanzheng asked some more questions, and the little green snake who had been tortured answered honestly without much struggle.

Ji Nanzheng went to Rong Leng and told him the whole story, and then he immediately wrote a letter to inform General Ge.

On the other side, Lou Qing and Lou Xue, who left the Ning Mansion for the second time, hid in a dim casino in the city.

The whole city is now wanted by their portraits, and it is obviously unrealistic to stay in an inn. Therefore, among prostitution, gambling and drugs, they chose the gambling house. It is full of smoke, noisy, and complicated. There are all kinds of people. It is the best place to hide.

Lou Xue was injured yesterday and has been bandaged. In a corner of the gambling house, she whispered to her senior brother Lou Qing: "Our plan failed. Our appearance was exposed. Lou An and Lou Han have lost contact. Now the other party is more cautious. Our chances of success are slim."

Lou Qing was a little angry: "It was obviously the foreigner who stole the sacred object of our country, but in the end, it was said that we had bad intentions. Xianyan people are so hateful."

"Hush." ​​Lou Xue held his senior brother's arm and shook his head at him: "Walls have ears. In short, brothers and sisters have accidents, and those who are missing are missing. Now there are only you and me left. No matter how difficult the mission is, we must complete it. This is the trust of the king in us. "

Lou Qing nodded, looked into Lou Xue's eyes again, and said: "Don't go tonight's operation, I can go by myself."

Lou Xue frowned: "There are not enough people, and if you are alone, it will be even more..."

"Axue." Lou Qing grabbed Lou Xue's hand and rubbed it with his fingertips: "You have to live. If I fail, you have to go back alive and report to the king. Because of the theft of the holy objects, political turmoil has frequently broken out in the court, and the king only has you as his daughter. "
