C92 The Tongue Warfare of Limestone Cooking

Hua Shanliyuan's house was a typical Japanese courtyard. The curving stream, exquisite corridor, gravel, broken wood and moss were the essential elements of the Japanese courtyard. There was no lack of exquisite in the small and exquisite, but there was also Japanese's extreme pursuit of perfect details.

Xiao Letian strolled in birch elder's courtyard, stopping from time to time to pay attention to the beautiful scenery in front of him. Whenever this happened, Hua Shanliyuan would always quietly stand by his side, afraid of disturbing Xiao Letian's contemplation.

"I'm sorry, I didn't see much of the Japanese-styled courtyard, please forgive me for being a little absent-minded …"

"No, no. If Mr. Xiao likes this house, I'm willing to offer it up with my two hands …" birch elder said respectfully.

Xiao Letian smiled and did not reply him. He walked in front of him with large strides, enjoying the treatment that people from the Subordinate States would receive. It was a pity that this treatment would not last for many years.

Although Xiao Letian was not the Official of Daqing, but Xiao Letian's reputation had definitely reached the level that it could move the capital. This kind of scholar in Japan could already be called Unparalleled National Scholars.

This was a very high honor, a prestige that even Celestial Emperor respected. Furthermore, due to the influence that Chinese civilization had had on Japan's culture for thousands of years, Xiao Letian, as a commoner, was able to gain the respect of the masses.

Xiao Le Tian was only accompanied by Shi Da Kai and Xiang Shao Long, while Shan Shi Yuan was only accompanied by Shan Ben Qing and Zhu Zhong Jing, the two important ministers. The six people of them had prepared a meal made of Huashan chestnut and it actually used the Japan's sixty characters. This was already considered one of the highest quality dishes in the Japan at that time.

Monarch's crabs produced by the Hokkaido only took the fresh meat from the legs of the crabs, while the tiger-spotted prawns harvested from the deep sea were made into a heavenly woman Luo, which was even more delicious when paired with plum wine. Not to mention those exquisite and picturesque stingers, this meal basically included all the essence of the Japanese cuisine.

This was a banquet that had nothing to do with eating. Everyone was accumulating their emotions as they chatted, as everyone knew that the battle would be very intense soon. No one dared to be negligent, and even Shan Benqing, who was the most greedy, only sipped from his sake.

After the dishes changed four or five times, and after drinking quite a few different kinds of wines unique to Japan, birch elder, who had been courteous for a long time, finally changed the topic to proper business.

"I have already read Mr. Xiao's《 Journey to the West》 many times, now this book is widely spread in Japan, in the process of studying in the West, there are very few scholars from the East that can explain the culture of the West so thoroughly. Right now, us scholars from the Japan have already treated《 Journey to the West》 as the first classic of the West, if mister is interested in visiting the Japan, I think he will receive a higher level of reception …"

"Ah?" Is birch elder's words true? Do you want me to go to Japan as a guest? I always thought that right now, I am stepping on the land of Japan? Isn't this Japan … " Xiao Letian's sarcasm and ridicule made the three Liu steelers in the room lose face. Shan Benqing coldly snorted and slapped the sake cup onto the wood.

Hua Shanliyuan Qiang endured his embarrassment and joked around. Since this was the glume, it naturally belonged to the glume King, and we, Japanese, were only Guest here. Perhaps, the appearance of the Army here is a misunderstanding to Mr. Xiao, here I want to clarify, these Army were all invited here by the glume King, we are here as a guest army to protect the glume … "

"Hahaha, protection?" Xiao Letian laughed arrogantly, "That's right, it's protection. We have protected you for two hundred and fifty years already, when your ancestor brought the three thousand Army s to the glume, who would like to invite you? Two-thirds of the Naga Harbor's taxes are in your pockets, of course you guys have to protect them well … "

"Now that I'm here, don't you guys feel that I'm not safe and want to protect me? Otherwise, why would the group of Japanese Rangers from the morning come to find me? Ah, birch elder, I don't know where you got your confidence from. Do you really think you're a wise general? Do you really think that my 'Journey to the West' was written with my bottom? "

Speaking of which, Xiao Letian pointed at his own head and sneered, "What is inside this place is not tofu. Do you really think that being smart can get away with it in front of me?" "I guess it's better to skip the pleasantries …"

Xiao Letian's sarcasm caused Hua Shanliyuan's face to turn red and white. In the morning, E Balang and the others' actions were as Xiao Letian had guessed. Hua Shanliyuan had only planned out a single move, but he didn't expect Xiao Letian to see through it in an instant.

In the end, it was Japanese's unique thick-skinned attitude that worked. Hua Shan only needed the time for a cup of sake to drink before his mood returned to normal. He stood up and extended his hand to invite Wu Tie to walk towards posterior hall. "The alcohol is a little strong, can I invite Mr. Xiao to enjoy that Tyrant Night Scene together?"

Since Hua Shanliyuan was being placed in glume by the Shimadzu, Family Head's expectations for him was not just a simple martial general, but an outstanding statesman. To statesman, face was a very useless thing, Xiao Letian's mockery could make Shan Benqing angry, but it was of no use to birch elder.

In the Birchhill mansion, there was a pavilion in the backyard, which was wide and very high, and it was the best place to view the entire landscape. In Xiao Letian's eyes, the Naga Harbor was as beautiful as a fairyland.

The candlelight shining from the buildings were woven into a hazy, beautiful scene within the Na Ba Cheng. This was a epoch without electricity, the glaring incandescent lights had yet to appear, the light from the candles caused the human eyes to be extremely relaxed and at ease. The candle light outlined the outline of the Naga Harbor, and even the sail Merchant ships in the distant seaport could faintly be seen.

"Mr. Xiao, right in front of you is the Shouli City. That is the capital of the glume King. "How is it? Isn't it a bit unexpected?" In the direction birch elder pointed, Xiao Letian saw the outline of a Castle.

"Mr. Xiao, the glume Kingdom is already very weak. As a weak island nation, it's very difficult for them to maintain the dignity a Country has. They have too few resources …"

"All things in the world exist relatively. To Daqing, Japan is a small place but to glume, it is a huge place. In your《 Journey to the West》 you have mentioned the law of the jungle more than once, that the weak will be conquered by the strong, isn't that what you have always been advocating? "

Hua Shanliyuan gradually found the feeling of negotiating. He politely said to Xiao Letian, "Of course I know that all the previous glume Kings have bowed down before the Mainland. In fact, not only the glume, our Japan Kingdom is also very humble towards China. But it does not prove anything. In these two hundred and fifty years of history, can I ask if there was a single soldier that managed to enter the glume? "

Speaking up to here, Xiao Letian became silent. He was very depressed, he realized that the moment Japanese started to look at The law of the jungle directly, his sophistry suddenly lost its use of force.

That's right, the glume Kingdom is weak. In this epoch that doesn't have the United Nations, the weak end up being conquered by others. You think that Japanese conquering the glume is very immoral, so where is your military strength? Why did the two generations of Mainland civilization not send a single soldier?

Hua Shanliyuan respectfully bowed towards Xiao Letian at 90 degrees, "You are Unparalleled National Scholars, I am just an ignorant martial general, please enlighten me." A land that the China does not want, why can't we, the Japan, take it? Could it be that we should give up on the glume just because of a few words of morals from the mouths of the Confucian Scholars? "

At this point, Xiao Letian no longer had any reason to quibble. Opening the window to speak was actually the best choice. Xiao Letian didn't answer birch elder's question. Instead, he went straight to the main topic at hand, "Today's probing is over, there's still half hillside on the wharf. I've already displayed my power, what do you think?"

birch elder nodded. "Very powerful. Every single one of your people, Soldiers, is abnormally powerful. We are ashamed of ourselves …" "But it's too little, the numbers are too little. If there really is a conflict, none of you are my match …"

"Oh!" You seem very confident. " Hearing Xiao Letian's rhetorical question, Hua Shanliyuan nodded his head, "Yes, I am very confident in our Army and also very confident in our Navy. Even if you have dozens of USA Speargun, you are still not a match for the three thousand elite soldiers in my hands.

"Ahahaha …" Xiao Letian suddenly laughed out wildly, "No wonder people say that Japanese is a genius in tactics, but a fool in strategy. It is indeed true, your eyes can only see this little Naga Harbor …"

Xiao Letian suddenly reached out his hand to pat Hua Shanliyuan's shoulder, while this Japanese subconsciously shrunk his shoulder.

"If I want to deal with you, I have plenty of ways. You don't even have the chance to fight back. You kept saying that you are representing the Japan Country, did you really think you are representing the Japan Country? "Remember your identity, you are only representing your Shimadzu, an ordinary name …"

"You want to play a game of stealth? You're f * cking dreaming … You can deceive the Mu Clan if you steal the control of the glume Kingdom, but you cannot deceive me. How much wealth did your Shimadzu earn in these two hundred years? Do you need me to send a letter to the Dechuan's Family Supervisor? "

Hua Shanliyuan's face turned pale at that moment. His waist was still bent 90 degrees, but his face had already lifted up. He didn't think that the following words would make Hua Shanliyuan even more frightened.

"Samoan, Changzhou vassal, are they plotting against the military alliance? As for the Tuzofan and the Fat Forsaken, do you want to join in as well? Your Majesty, your shouts have become so tasteless. Do you want to try out your military adventures? Where's your Samoan's Du Ji? What was he planning to do after marrying into the Dechuan? use a beauty as a aconite? "

At this moment, Xiao Letian was like Ali, the boxing king of the boxing ring. He was stepping in a butterfly stance, with his left hook, right hook, and straight punch … The fight was dazzling, a clan elder of a small Shimadzu, was originally not the most talented person in Japan, how could he endure this?

"Nani?" Nani... How did you know? Are you a human or a ghost … "

Xiao Letian gave a magnificent last strike: "You idiot, last year, the bombardment of Xiaguan by the Joint fleet of Britain, France, America and the He Dynasty only subsided a few months ago, did you forget? Now that the Dechuan's Mu Clan is hating you people, you actually dare talk nonsense in front of me! "Eight …"

Along with Xiao Letian's angry curse, Hua Shanliyuan's legs softened and he kneeled on the wooden floor. The sweat on his forehead dripped down.

Xiao Letian rolled his eyes at him and turned to leave. "stonecrop, Dragon Lord, let's go back and sleep. This group of idiots isn't worth our time …"

"Mr. Xiao..." What exactly do you want? " At this moment, Hua Shanliyuan gathered up his courage and asked loudly.

Xiao Letian did not look at him, and only gazed at the lights of the Tyrant Port in the distance. At noon the day after tomorrow, I will arrange a meal of Chinese cuisine at Cherry Blossom to repay your meal. At that time, you will know what I want … " With that, he left the courtyard with Wing King and Dragon Lord in large strides.
