Dali Temple Small Dining Room

  Chapter 197 Meat Crab Pot (1)

   Throughout the Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Festival, as many as 23 young ladies came to report their disappearance. Except for two young ladies who stayed after the Lantern Festival ended and found them by themselves, the other 21 young ladies were all missing.

At this time, Liu Yuan and the others, who didn't know that Lin Fei had brought someone to take over the case, were surrounding the beauty lamp they had won and sighing: "At the final count, we only had a few sticks less than the third one, if... hey! Shengsheng lost a lot of money!"

  Liu Yuan was not the only one who sighed like this, and everyone responded one after another. If the money is brought back to the public kitchen "Ji Da Accountant", you may be able to buy back a lot of braised duck, sugar-fried chestnuts and other snacks!

  The beauty lamp, which is hard to come by on weekdays, is naturally beautiful, and the beauties on the surface of the octagonal palace lamp are lifelike, and they will be like this after looking at them for a long time.

  They don't have any "elegant" literati here, and after a while, it becomes stale. Everyone hung the beauty lamp in the lobby, and then continued to work on their own.

   While sorting out the files in their hands, while chatting, the topic involuntarily turned to the lunch of the public chef today.

"When I went outside to celebrate and came back, I saw our 'Ji Da Accountant' bringing the ingredients from Zhuangzi. Guess what it is?" said the guard who had just gone out, and squeezed towards everyone With eyes wide open, he stood up and took a few steps sideways.

   This "walking sideways" movement is really conspicuous, and people can guess it immediately at a glance, and they are immediately pleasantly surprised: "Could it be that the crab is here?"

   Counting the days, the crabs on this Zhuangzi should also come.

  The guard nodded and said happily: "I also saw Master Wen go to get the casserole today. This method is not the same as the usual steaming in previous years."

  Thinking of the crabs made by Master Wen, it is really exciting!

  Wen Mingtang, who was mentioned by the guards, sneezed, sat down, and seriously began to brush up the "crab bosses" in the basket.

   There are many ways to make crabs, such as steamed, boiled, drunk crabs in aged Huadiao, or a warm pot of crabs like her.

  These methods are all delicious! After all, crabs are very delicious in the first place, no matter how hard they are, they will not go anywhere.

   But now that we have come to Darong, since the chefs in Chang'an City can make the first few recipes, and many people have eaten them, Wen Mingtang decided to make a new style for "everyone in Dali Temple" that he has never seen before.

In this room, Wen Mingtang and others are earnestly brushing crabs and preparing to make meaty crab stew. After chatting for a while in the other room, Liu Yuan and others, who are still lamenting that "steal half a day of leisure, the more idle the more addictive", but "can't stay idle" Only then did I know that the disappearance of the young lady in Jingzhao Mansion was under the control of Dali Temple.

   Not only that, Lin Shaoqing even brought a "suspect" into Dali Temple yesterday, and now he is waiting for interrogation!

  Following Lin Fei into the prison of Dali Temple and seeing Yuan Erlang, he saw Yuan Erlang yelling "There are cockroaches" at the jailers!

  The jailers in that room were also straightforward, and one of them "swift-eyed and quick-footed" immediately caught up with the scurrying cockroach, and sent the cockroach to reincarnation!

  Looking at this action, Genjiro almost didn't faint, pointing at the jailer who moved his feet, his fingers trembling: "You...you..."

   "What are you?" the jailer said impatiently, "Aren't you afraid?" He kicked the cockroach and said impatiently, "Aren't you not afraid after death?"

   Watching this scene, Genjiro turned pale.

   At this moment, Lin Fei walked in with Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu.

   Glancing at Yuan Erlang, Liu Yuantong Bai Zhu couldn't help shaking his head: This young man with thin skin and tender meat is really interesting! Let's say he is timid, he would spend money to buy his life for my sister without hesitation, and even gouging people's eyes when he opened his mouth, it would be strange if he was timid; Cockroaches can turn pale from being frightened, which seems to have nothing to do with the word 'courageous'.

   This Yuan Erlang is really really unlikable! Lin Shaoqing has sent people to Jiangling to inquire about Yuan Erlang's past, let's see if this man has done any evil things in the past, if he has done so, he might as well "stay" in Dali Temple for a year or so alright.

  Yuan Erlang didn't know Liu Yuantong Bai Zhu's slander at this time, when he saw Lin Fei and others coming in, his pale face softened a little, and he called out: "Lin Shaoqing is here?"

  Lin Fei let out a "hmm", and looked at him calmly.

   Seeing the calm look in Yuan Erlang's eyes, he immediately became excited and began to defend himself: "Your Majesty is really wronged, I never sent anyone to take those missing little ladies abducted!"

  Lin Fei said "hmm" again, looked at him, and asked, "The Taoist priest Lin Yuanguan has confessed that you sent three women to him, and asked him to do it to save your sister's life, right?"

When Lin Fei mentioned the three words "Lin Yuanguan", Yuan Erlang's face turned pale, and when Lin Fei finished speaking, his lips trembled when he met Lin Fei's gaze , and then he stammered and said: "Lin... Lin Shaoqing is really powerful, I... I'm just worried about my sister..."

   Really a lot of nonsense! Liu Yuan looked at it, and couldn't help but interrupted him: "Who cares if you worry about your younger sister? What I'm going to ask is where did you get those three girls!"

   That's right! The pale-faced Yuan Erlang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and replied, "I bought it from Ren Yazi in the east of the city!"

   Glancing at Lin Fei, who was too lazy to speak, Liu Yuan immediately understood, stood up and asked: "Where's the tooth?"

  Yuan Erlang reported an address.

  This address is exactly the same as those women reported, and it was already empty!

  Liu Yuan frowned and looked at the relieved Yuan Erlang, and said, "What I'm going to ask is where did you find that human tooth!"

  Yuan Erlang hurriedly said: "The streets in the east of the city!"

   Is this answer any different from not saying anything?

  Liu Yuan: "..."

  Seeing that his colleagues were about to get angry, Bai Zhu who was at the side saw this, and quickly said, "What I'm going to ask is how did you know that Ren Yazi," he said, "I'm afraid there is something wrong with Ren Yazi's business!"

As soon as these words came out, Yuan Erlang's face turned pale again, and he stammered hurriedly: "I... I don't know either! After leaving Lin Yuanguan, I wanted to find Ren Yazi, because If you are not familiar with the place, you will find someone to ask the way..."

  …

  After asking Yuan Erlang, when he came out of the prison, Liu Yuan's face was very ugly.

  According to Na Yuan Erlang's confession, he really thought that the old Taoist priest was an outsider, so he wanted to spend two dollars to buy a few women to replace his sister's life.

  Being unfamiliar with the place, the group went out to inquire. Early the next morning, they went to the east of the city. After inquiring for a long time, they didn't find anyone who knew about Ren Yazi. When they were worried, a middle-aged man who had been standing by the side of the road for a long time came over and asked them if they wanted to find Ren Yazi.

"After we talked about it, the middle-aged man said he was a human tooth, so we followed him! After we went to him, we found that he was of the right age and good-looking." Yuan Erlang paused for a moment when he said this. After a pause, he hurriedly said, "This matter has nothing to do with my younger sister. She refused to stop me many times!"

Recalling what Yuan Erlang confessed just now, Liu Yuan couldn't help but sneer: "Look at this irritable and irritable villain, he really loves his sister's life! It's just that his sister's life is his life, those things bought with money The maidservant's life is not life at all!"
