Chapter 101: The Great Indian Adventure (Eating Hot Pot at the Padmanaba Swamy Temple)

If it weren't for the repeated confirmation from Teddy, Wu Liang really couldn't associate the pile of rotten stones in front of him with the magnificent temple in the data. Damn it! The head of the government army who is responsible for looting the property has Japanese blood in his body! The three-light policy is so skillful, so you are not afraid to go back and eat guns because of the destruction of cultural monuments?

According to the materials prepared by the professor, the main body of the Padmanaba Swamy Temple is a seven-storey pyramid-like structure surrounded by elaborate stone carvings, several of the main statues are covered with gold leaf, and the statues of the gods enshrined in the main hall are made of gold throughout. In addition to the main building, there are many ornate buildings for Brahmins, as well as some of the remains of ancient buildings that are even older.

After the government army group of guys blew it up, they didn't like it, and set off a fire that completely burned down all the wooden buildings, and now all that appeared in front of Wu Liang was a dilapidated garbage dump that had been blown into ruins, not to mention a temple, not even a decent house left.

That's not good! Not to mention the treasure hunt, even the main body of the temple has become a dumping ground for construction waste, and you want to find the buried gold from such a large pile of garbage? The amount of work is too much.

"Teddy? Where is the main entrance of the Padmanaba Swami Temple? Wu Liang, who was a little numb, asked with a dull face.

Lucy turned her head and said in surprise, "Temple? Is this the temple? ”

"Ahh This is the Padmanaba Swamy Temple, a treasure that Kerala was once proud of---- but I don't know exactly where the main entrance of the temple is, so let's take a closer look! ”

Get! Even the guide is numb, and this group of Yaga of the government army is really not enough to succeed and more than to lose!

"Let's stop for now! It's going to get dark soon, so find a place to camp first, and then do the rest of the work tomorrow. By the way, be safe, God knows what's going to happen under the ruins, and if there's an unexploded bomb or something, it's going to be dead. Wu Liang stopped Teddy, who wanted to get out of the car to find his way, and Michael, who was excited to film the tragic scene in front of him.

The original desire to spend the night in a private house was in vain, not to mention the house, and even two complete walls were not found, and there was no way to spend the night in the field again, which was really a headache.

While searching the campsite, Wu Liang found an unexpected surprise---- a small group of black goats.

How can goats still exist in the rainforest? It may have been free-range by the residents near the original temple! After all, no one can say what happened two years ago.

Raise the M4 and knock down one of them, and finally you can eat a bite of fresh mutton, it's not easy! The work of bloodletting and skin cleaning was completed on the spot, and a small pit was dug to bury the foul blood and the whole set of head and hooves to prevent the smell of blood from attracting predators with a keen sense of smell. Wrap the lamb in a sheepskin to meet Teddy and them.

The rain in the jungle always came without any warning, and before they could find a campsite, a sudden heavy rain gave Wu Liang and a few people who had just arrived at the temple a dismount. didn't give the four of them much time to prepare, and the bean-sized raindrops quickly became a line, "Wow! Suddenly, the rain poured down from the sky as if the sky had fallen, and the water droplets splashed on the ground to form a layer of rain and mist, and soon the surroundings were white and cloudy.

"Michael! Michael! Drive the car to the high ground! Wu Liang shouted hoarsely in the torrential rain while desperately waving to the two people in the car behind.

I don't know if Michael saw the gesture clearly or heard Wu Liang's voice, the two tuktuk cars turned on their headlights and climbed a gentle slope with difficulty and surrounded by tall trees. The car Wu Liang was sitting in was a little better, at least there was a thin compartment to shelter from the wind and rain, and the one Michael and Lucy were riding in was much more miserable, but in just a short distance of more than 100 meters, the two people who only had a canvas as a roof were poured into soup.

Fortunately, there are a lot of materials stored in the storage space, and canvas is indispensable. Wu Liang took out a large canvas large enough to wrap two tuktuk cars under the pretense of rummaging in the carriage, and used the two fully loaded trolleys as fixes, and the four of them quickly built a simple small shed that could block the rain in three directions.

"Ahh Lucy, a beautiful white reporter dressed very coolly, was drenched in the heavy raindrops carried by the wind and began to sneeze.

"Get in the car and get it! Beware of colds! Wu Liang took out a set of dry clothes and handed it over, as for the big black Michael? Sorry, he couldn't wear Wu Liang's clothes, so he could only take off his wet clothes and stand aside with a clean blanket and a little embarrassment.

Black clouds came with the wind, and a dull thunder flashed from the sky, roaring! It looks like it's going to rain for a while.

A small platform was piled up on the ground with an army-green wooden box filled with canned food, and the folding tent general was set up on it, although it was a little panicked, it was better than sticking directly into the muddy ground, and the small tent looked full after squeezing four people.

Under Wu Liang's command, everyone sat in a corner, vacated a small space in the middle, took out a mini alcohol stove from their backpacks, and boiled water. After that, Wu Liang got out and took the mutton that was rolled in the skin from the car, took out the dagger, and sliced the mutton neatly. Although the deboning link is omitted, under the superb knife work, the small size of the shredded meat is not wasted, and the whole little goat weighing more than a dozen catties soon becomes a pile of mutton slices with uniform thickness.

I found a clean plastic bag and packed seven or eight catties of mutton slices, and the remaining meat and mutton bones were not wasted and thrown directly into the space. By the way, he conjured four sets of chopsticks and a small bottle of pre-filled hot pot dipping sauce from the space, and as soon as he turned around, he entered the tent.

"Hey! Everyone, long waiting! Let's take a handle first, the water is boiling? After entering the tent, Wu Liang divided the dishes and chopsticks in his hand to the three of them, and after sitting down, he gently lifted the lid of the pot.

The small flame of the alcohol stove was quite powerful, and a large pot of water was boiled so quickly, and Wu Liang directly put the base and mutton into it.

Teddy Lucy and Michael stared at the two chopsticks in their hands a little confused: "Boss! How do I use this thing? "Yes! Wu, what are you doing with two bamboo sticks for us? ”

"Dizzy!" Forget that this will be the 80s, and Chinese food has not yet become popular all over the world. "I forgot you wouldn't use it! Give you forks to deal with! ”

"Today let's have a traditional Chinese meal [hot pot]! OK! The water is boiling, the meat is almost cooked, I'll clip it for you! First poured some dipping sauce into each person's bowl, and Wu Liang added a bowl of mutton slices to each person: "Come on!" Let's try it with the spices! ”
