Chapter 45: In order not to stain the top of the head green
January 27, 2018
The life of Salted Fish always feels like time flies, as if in a blink of an eye, it has come to the end of January.
Time flies, and the group has fully tasted all kinds of delicacies in Shencheng, including sandstone barbecue, herb soup, flower and fruit soup, etc., all of them are full of praise for these different flavors of food, and deeply regret that Shencheng's food culture has not spread all over the world.
From a cultural point of view, Shencheng cuisine has a long history and a very deep cultural heritage. Many of the foods that people like to see today can be traced back to fifteen hundred years ago, when humans and spirits in the vicinity of Shencheng were racially merged. The spirits brought their unique eating habits and ingredients to Shencheng, greatly expanding the recipes of the people of Shencheng.
Although in the beginning, most of these indigenous delicacies were based on strange tastes, and human beings may not be able to adapt to them, but with the integration of cultures for more than a thousand years, many special delicacies have been put on the table of ordinary people. Tracing the cultural origins behind it makes people enjoy spiritual sublimation while refreshing their taste buds.
It's a pity that so far, such a distinctive food culture has only spread around Shencheng, far less than the statewide chain like Jinyucheng and Liantiancheng, with branches and leaves all over the world.
In this regard, Wang Jiu felt the most regretful.
Many of these foods tasted in Shencheng are even better than those of the Kyushu era.
This is actually very rare, because generally speaking, the development of food culture must be accompanied by the overall prosperity of civilization - there are enough rich food to waste in this society, and enough idlers have the time to think about their appetites, which can promote the progress of food culture.
And today's Xiangzhou Continent, although Heqinghai Yan is peaceful in the world, when it comes to the overall development of civilization, there is still a considerable gap between it and the Kyushu era when the immortal cultivators went to heaven and earth. In that era when the sky collapsed was not uncommon, the great monks moved mountains and reclaimed the sea at every turn, calling for wind and rain. Mortals don't need to pray for any good weather at all, just ask the passing monks to help sort out the weather.
At that time, if the monks were interested in the appetite, they also studied the taste and cooking methods of genius earth treasures, and there were few mortal things on the table, and any ingredient must have at least a spiritual word prefix in front of it before it could be entered. Among them, the most exquisite, such as the characters at the level of the Lord of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, are not ancient, rare, primitive and other things that are not eaten. Although Wang Jiu really doesn't think that there is really any mystery in the ancient fritters, rare fried liver, and primitive pasted cakes......
As the Outer Heaven Divine Sword that saved the world back then, Wang Jiu followed the Nine Immortal Venerables to eat all over the Xiangzhou Continent - although the material conditions of the Kyushu Continent deteriorated sharply after the invasion of the demons, the material supply of the high-level has always been guaranteed. But in Wang Jiu's opinion, those exquisite delicacies are actually not as interesting as these street foods in Shencheng.
Because the former is striving for excellence in the category of human diet, the latter breaks through the mold and is refreshing directly in the framework. Many of the so-called common sense taboos of human diet do not exist for spirits, and the cultural fruits bred under such a foundation are truly delicious.
"So, I suggest going to the food stalls in Nancheng Baijiafang tonight to explore the store......"
Before Wang Jiu's proposal was finished, it was unanimously rejected by his companions.
"You're enough! Didn't you eat enough yesterday and the day before yesterday!? It's not that you can only eat one or two at a time, every time you go, you take us with you and order all the dishes on the menu! I'm afraid that others won't see that we are foodies! Now that I've tasted every dish almost twice, what's there to discover!? ”
Wang Jiu explained seriously: "Haven't you noticed, in the food stalls of Baijiafang, the chefs in charge of each stall often change. Different chefs have different preferences for cooking, and the same dish will also have subtle differences in taste, such as yesterday's ......"
"It's just such a little deviation, you can eat it even if you lose it! I think the most is the difference between the waiter spitting a few mouthfuls of saliva inside! Shen Qingming was really convinced by his white sword, "Every day except to eat is to eat, what are you doing here!?" ”
Wang Jiu asked very strangely: "Didn't you say that there was an authentic barbecue here, so I came with you?" Or what do you think I'm here for? Did you help resolve the grievances between the two families? ”
“…… No way! Shen Qingming really felt like her faith was shattered.
Come to think of it, this is how a certain group of cultists who desperately want to prove that they have foreign blood, and hate to be born as a mongrel, finally find out that they are the mainstream bloodline through and through......
However, having lived with this sword spirit for so long, Shen Qingming also knew that it was basically an impossible task to persuade him to change his mind by words alone, no matter how hard she tried, the topic would definitely turn to her IQ in the end. This kind of lifelong black history is still rare, so it is logical to turn the target to other people.
"What do you say?"
Li Wanqing and others, these days are also living a fairy life, idling around in Shencheng all day long, eating, drinking, buying, buying, buying, like a local tyrant who has become rich by demolition. At this time, after listening to Shen Qingming's question, each of them had their own answers.
Li Chaolu understated: "I heard that the light restaurant in the west of the city has excellent wine and food, and the signature Lingyan wine has a miraculous effect on beauty, I want to try it." ”
Li Wanqing sighed, glanced at her thoughtfully, and then responded to Shen Qingming: "I made an appointment with Shen Ying to have tea together." ”
“…… Hey, why did you two hook up?! ”
Li Wanqing said strangely: "It was she who teased me at the earliest, so we will have more clues about her, you are so forgetful......"
Wang Jiu turned his gaze and said, "Even my memory is useless......
Shen Qingming really can't wait to slap a brick on his head, why do you want to ask such a question!? Can you think about it when you talk in the future?!
But on the other hand, this day is too tired, you have to be cautious when talking to your relatives, like a government spokesperson, believe it or not, I believe it anyway, this day really doesn't want to live!
In anger, Shen Qingming turned his gaze to Li Xinyu again.
To be honest, for this fat man, the girl really doesn't plan to waste any lips and tongues, just let him fend for himself in Shencheng, but after all, there is a family member, so let's just ask.
"Xinyu, what about you?"
Li Xinyu immediately smiled happily: "I'm ......"
"Oh needless to say, I'll know when I see your smiling face."
“……”
Since the teammates around him have been proven useless, Shen Qingming had no choice but to give up the struggle, and followed Wang Jiu to the food stall to taste the special food of Baijiafang for the third time, and comforted himself in his heart, at least much happier than the days of radish and cabbage.
Just thinking about it, Wang Jiu opened his mouth and said: "Speaking of which, if you don't like Baijiafang, I can make a ...... by myself."
"I can't hear you!"
——
Baijiafang in Chengnan District is a famous and prosperous food area in Shencheng, gathering hundreds of popular foods that are popular among the people of Shencheng. There are few high-end luxury meals that last for hours at a time, and most of the stalls are set up on the street, where the smell of barbecue, stir-frying and shabu-shabu is mixed together, creating a rich local food atmosphere.
When Wang Jiu arrived here with his mount, it was the time when the people were buzzing and the business was at its most prosperous, and the main road running through the north and south had been filled with benches and tables by vendors on both sides, leaving only a path in the middle that could barely allow two people to walk side by side, and there was no room for cars and horses. Diners who come here, regardless of their status, can only walk through it.
Wang Jiu stood in front of the smoky and slightly greasy archway of Baijiafang, and smelled the rich and pungent smell of oil smoke in the air, so his heart perked: "The taste of the five whole pots and the fragrant sauce elbow is different from yesterday, and today is really the right one." ”
Shen Qingming is really convinced by this sense of smell that is better than a bear, this tabula rasa stupid sword has been awakened since May to the present, and for most of the year, he has worked hard to collect all kinds of materials to rebuild the sword world, but now he doesn't see any ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, but this nose is becoming more and more sensitive, there are hundreds of stalls, thousands of tables, and nearly 10,000 dishes on this street, and the taste of dishes is mixed together, he can actually tell which dish is different from yesterday!
No wonder he was able to categorically conclude that Shen Jinghai was a man, obviously smelling hormones......
When Shen Qingming was thinking nonsense, Wang Jiu was already leading his mount and shuttling on the main road with dense crowds, although his pace was not fast, but it was smooth, and the tables and crowded crowds placed on the street did not hinder his progress at all, and soon he took his mount to a stall he liked yesterday.
It's just that before he could sit down under the greeting of the boss, he suddenly found that far away, about a block or two away from Baijiafang, on a secluded street corner, an acquaintance flashed.
That person is tall, curvaceous, and has a delicate and bright appearance, which is Li Chaolu, who said before that he was going to taste beauty wine.
It's strange, did the light restaurant in the west of the city open a branch here?
After some exquisite analysis, Wang Jiu felt that the wine with pork knuckle was also an excellent pairing, so he pulled Shen Qingming to Li Chaolu's direction first, preparing to buy the wine first.
"Eh, what's wrong?"
"Discover Li Chaolu." Wang Jiu briefly explained his train of thought, and saw that Shen Qingming's eyes were also shining, and he seemed to be full of interest.
"Oh, you're also interested in a combination of fine wine and pork knuckle?"
Shen Qingming glanced at him: "I'm interested in Li Chaolu's gossip!" ”
"What gossip?"
"Hmph, what kind of beauty wine to buy is good, but secretly ran to a secluded street corner around Baijiafang, there must be something wrong here!"
"Maybe it's the light restaurant that has opened a branch here."
Shen Qingming said: "Maybe Li Chaolu met a new boyfriend here!" Okay, don't talk nonsense, even if it's for the hat on your head, we must go and catch the traitor as soon as possible! Let's go! ”
