Chapter 132: Secret Records of Strange Stories
Although he asked this, Lu Xiaohao didn't think it was possible.
The people of the Baijiabao caravan are extremely hostile to outsiders, but they also abide by the rules. As long as outsiders don't provoke them, they generally won't bother with them.
It’s just that Yang Song is a bit straightforward, so it’s possible that he might have an argument with the people in the caravan.
Yang Song shook his head: "No, it's... forget it, sir, just look for yourself."
Lu Xiaohao had never eaten frogs before. The frog thighs looked similar to chicken, but the feet made him stunned.
"This is?"
"frog!"
"frog?"
Lu Xiaohao frowned. What kind of chicken claws look like this?
Yang Song saw his master frowning and quickly began to explain.
"Sir, frogs are also called frogs."
"No, it's not a frog. I heard from the caravan's cook that frogs are tiger frogs. They are called frogs because their meat is more tender than chicken."
"So, it's a relative of the frog?"
After Lu Xiaohao asked, he thought to himself, no wonder he felt that this foot was inexplicably familiar, it turned out that he had encountered a frog when catching crayfish before.
Yang Song scratched his head: "Uh... maybe."
He felt that they were the same; even if they were not frogs, they were relatives of frogs.
"Sir, if you don't want to eat, I'll go get some scrambled eggs with onions."
"Eat." Lu Xiaohao: "Everyone in the caravan eats, so there is nothing we can't eat."
What Lu Xiaohao actually wanted to say was, if white peaches can be eaten, then there is nothing he can't eat.
But he knew Bai Tao's position in the Baijiabao caravan.
If Bai Tao frowned, everyone in the Baijiabao caravan would be so worried that they would lose their appetite.
"Please forgive me, sir. I will try first."
As a subordinate, he would naturally try such food first. If it doesn't work, there is no need to pollute his master's mouth.
Yang Song carefully picked up a piece of frog meat, swallowed his saliva, and was about to prepare himself mentally before putting it into his mouth when his master had already picked up a piece of frog leg and put it into his mouth.
After Lu Xiaohao spat out the small bone, he commented: "The meat is indeed tender and better than chicken. She will eat it."
At this moment, Lu Xiaohao also remembered that he vaguely heard Bai Tao say that she wanted to eat frogs two days ago, but he didn't hear it clearly at that time and thought she was talking about normal chickens.
Yang Song also put the frog meat into his mouth at this time. The taste made his eyes light up. He did not pay attention to the second half of his master's words. He just nodded and said, "Master, you are right. It is indeed delicious."
A large bowl of spicy frogs, scrambled eggs with onions, and stir-fried gourds were all eaten up by the two of them.
Holding his full stomach, Yang Song once again felt that it was a good decision to send that truckload of jadeite raw stones.
"I don't know what to eat tomorrow."
Lu Xiaohao glanced at Yang Song, chuckled and shook his head, but he now began to look forward to it.
But over the next two days, the meals started to become normal.
Wild boar meat, wild rabbit or pheasant meat, even black bears, wild wolves, etc.
Yang Song wondered: "There are quite a few talented people in this Baijiabao caravan."
It's winter now, and he's so good at hunting and never fails to catch anything. I'm afraid even experienced hunters would have to admit defeat.
Lu Xiaohao thought for a moment and said, "To set up a caravan with a village, and to have young and old travel together, it would take a lot of tricks to do it."
He had browsed through the royal records of strange stories and secrets, and some tribes in the ancient jungles had various means of survival and inheritance.
It's not surprising that the Baijiabao caravan is like this.
Only the people in Taohua Village knew that the reason why Lao Heitou and his companions could catch so many prey every time they went hunting was because of the animal attractant powder. They would find an area where wild game was active, spread some animal attractant powder, and soon some wild game would be attracted.
Sometimes when you hunt too much, you can exchange some of it for people who come to find things to exchange for supplies.
As a result, those who followed the caravan would be even more reluctant to leave.
When fleeing, one naturally rushes on the road as fast as possible, and even if one takes a rest, it won't take too long.
Therefore, when they joined other teams on the road one after another, they were extremely puzzled when they saw that the people following the Baijiabao caravan were dawdling for an hour or two throughout the day.
Only the common people who have followed the Baijiabao caravan know that there is no need to rush, and that going slower has its benefits.
After entering Qingquan County, there were large numbers of people fleeing on the official road. Even Bai Tao couldn't help but become nervous.
Soon, Bai Dashan, who had heard the news, came over.
"Auntie, Qingquan County was breached by the rebels two days ago, and many bandits took the opportunity to enter the city to burn, kill, and loot, so there are so many refugees on the road."
Bai Tao understood.
Soldiers and bandits can actually be together. By taking off their armor, they can transform into robbing bandits.
Moreover, after the rebels broke into the city, it was not impossible that many soldiers of the Jin army fled and turned to rob the rich peasants and common people.
"Tell everyone to be more cautious these days. When setting up camp at night, if anyone unfamiliar approaches, capture them immediately."
"Hey, aunt."
The people who followed the Baijiabao caravan were both grateful and terrified at this moment.
Fortunately, the time of dawdling just avoided the time of encountering the rebels, and they would not be stuck in the city because of passing through Qingquan County to enter the city for supplies.
What is frightening is that there are suddenly so many refugees on the road, and with so many people involved, it is easy for something to happen.
Everyone turned their eyes to the flag in front of them. The white words with a smiling face on them made people feel at ease for some reason.
This made those who were already confused and disoriented even more determined to follow the Baijiabao caravan.
When they set up camp at night, many people gathered around the Baijiabao caravan camp. The bonfires were bigger than ever before. Even though people were arranged to take turns to keep watch, no one dared to sleep too deeply.
This night passed peacefully.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but worries were still hanging in their hearts.
When they were rushing on the road in the morning, the little kids who usually ran from the front of the team to the back of the team stayed obediently with their families, and the atmosphere seemed quite solemn.
After lunch, when Lu Xiaohao came, Bai Tao was eating crayfish.
After picking crayfish for several days, Lu Xiaohao was sure that he would not make a mistake.
This crayfish is actually edible!
But before in Qingzhou, no one believed what the Baijiabao caravan said.
"What's the matter with you?"
That truckload of raw jade produced a lot of top-quality jade. Bai Tao picked out and sold some of them to the mall, and kept most of them.
For the sake of those jades, she had to give this man some face.
Seeing that Lu Xiaohao was staring at the crayfish in front of her, Bai Tao had no choice but to ask, "Do you want to eat it?"
The question in a childish voice brought Lu Xiaohao back to his senses from his shock.
He asked tentatively: "Is it okay?"
If Yang Song were here at this moment, he would definitely rush over to stop it.
These are little bugs that ordinary people don't eat. His master is extremely precious, so how could he eat these ugly bugs?
