In Sun Simiao's igloo, after Luo Zhang brought a bunch of system ingredients, the old poisoner went crazy. Although his food was not bad these days, he only had the same food over and over again. He wanted to go out to catch some game, but where could he go in this world of ice and snow? beat?
If it weren't for the hot pot invented by Luo Zhang that made the old poison feel so fresh and he ate it from time to time, he might not be able to bear it anymore and would go to Luo Zhang.
Luo Zhang did not roast the ingredients he brought today. Instead, he washed the duck and cut it into pieces, and cut the potatoes into pieces. Luo Zhang was going to make a roasted duck with potatoes for the two old guys today. This dish appeared for the first time in the Tang Dynasty. After all, although potatoes were used as military rations, when it came to making good use of potatoes and doing them well, no one in the entire Tang Dynasty could compare with Luo Zhang.
As for the oysters, they didn’t bake them either. Instead, they made a basket, put minced garlic on top of the oysters, and added seasonings. The only thing missing was the vermicelli. Unfortunately, Datang didn’t have this stuff, but it wasn’t bad either. What we eat is oysters, and the vermicelli is just for decoration. Nothing else, just steam them.
For the last eggplant, Luo Zhang made fish-flavored eggplant. It tasted sour, spicy and fragrant. Before they even ate it, the index fingers of Lao Duwu and Sun Simiao were moved.
After all the dishes were cooked, Luo Zhang went to the kitchen and made a large pot of white rice in case of emergency.
The three of them sat around the table, poured Erguotou and raised their glasses.
"Boy, your roasted duck is really delicious. These potatoes are also delicious. They are soft and glutinous and have enough flavor. I really can't tell. You also have a good way of cooking. What else do you think you don't know? "?" The old poisonous man praised while eating.
"Don't look at whose grandson he is. How can he not know many things?" Sun Simiao defeated himself without hesitation.
"You old guy, why don't you show some respect? Did you teach Luo Zhanghui? What does it have to do with you?" The old poison sneered.
"Then I don't care. He is my grandson. He will have something to do with me, right?" Sun Simiao said forcefully.
The old poisonous guy rolled his eyes and ignored him, and just kept eating. Luo Zhang felt a little funny watching the two old guys bickering, but he found it very interesting. Even though the two bickered so fiercely on weekdays, Luo Zhang knew Their relationship is actually very good. No matter who is in trouble, the other will try his best to help. He also wants to have such a life-and-death friendship, but such a life-and-death friendship is not something that can be achieved just by thinking about it.
The two old guys were smiling happily after eating the same meal, and the old poisoner no longer picked on Luo Zhang. Before they finished eating, a guard outside the door shouted into the igloo: "Master Luo, Master Li is calling you. Come over there and say you found what you were looking for!”
After Luo Zhang heard this, his chopsticks fell to the ground. He didn't bother to pick them up. He got up and walked out.
"Boy, what's wrong? What happened?" Old Poison asked hurriedly.
Luo Zhang turned back to look at Sun Simiao and Lao Duwu. Seeing the worried look on their faces, he hurriedly said apologetically: "Grandpa, Master Du, it's nothing. I'm just too happy. Anyway, it's a happy event, a big happy event. You guys will do it later." Just know it!”
After saying that, Luo Zhang walked out and followed the soldiers to the door of Li Ji's igloo. He saw a basket placed in front of the door. There were irregular "black stones" the size of a fist in the basket.
Seeing these "black stones" Luo Zhang walked over with a smile, picked up one and looked at it, his eyes were full of little stars.
Originally, Luo Zhang thought it would take a day or two to find it, but he didn't expect to find it before the meal was over. In other words, the coal was near their camp, which had to be said to be great news. .
At this time, Li Ji, Cheng Yaojin and others also walked out of the igloo, looking at Luo Zhang smiling so happily, with strange expressions on their faces.
Li Ji was the first to ask: "Luo Zhang, we have found what you want. Do you think it is this "black stone"?"
Luo Zhang nodded hurriedly and said: "Yes, that's it. This is not called "black stone" but coal. By the way, where were these coals found?"
"This thing is called coal? Why haven't I heard of it before? What is the use of this thing?" Cheng Yaojin asked.
"This coal was found at the foot of a hill ten miles northwest of the camp. There is a lot of this coal at the foot of the mountain. The soldiers who went to explore picked up some and came back!" Li Ji replied.
Luo Zhang nodded, glanced at Cheng Yaojin and said: "Coal has existed since ancient times, but many people don't know about it. I also saw it in an ancient book. I didn't expect it to be found here. This is really a blessing from God." The Tang Dynasty!"
"God bless the Tang Dynasty? Please tell me what is the use of this thing?" Cheng Yaojin asked.
"What's the use? Hahaha, you'll know in a moment!" Luo Zhang said as he picked up the basket and walked towards the igloo.
Everyone followed him into the igloo. As soon as they entered the house, they saw Luo Zhang throwing the so-called coal in the basket into the bonfire in the center.
"Luo Zhang, why did you throw this thing in? This stone cannot be eaten or used. Will it change anything if it is burned in the fire?" Yuchi Jingde blinked and asked in confusion.
"Hahaha, you will know it in a while, there is no use telling you now!" Luo Zhang laughed.
When everyone saw what Luo Zhang said, they didn't ask any more questions. Instead, they stared at the bonfire in the center, and most importantly, at the coals being burned in the fire.
On the other hand, Luo Zhang didn't stare. After adding some coal, he clapped his hands, ran to the table and sat down, and went to make tea for himself and rest.
Before he finished drinking the cup of tea, Luo Zhang heard Cheng Yaojin exclaim loudly.
"Look, look, the "black stone" is burning!"
"Really, what is this and why can it burn?" Yuchi Jingde also spoke up.
Li Ji thought more than everyone else. He looked at the coal on the ground and then at Luo Zhang, who was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, and seemed to have thought of something: "Luo Zhang, you mean these things can be used as firewood? "
Luo Zhang glanced at Li Ji in surprise. A smart person is indeed a smart person. He thought of the answer before he said anything.
Nodding towards Li Ji, Luo Zhang smiled and said: "Yes, this thing called coal is a thing that can be burned. It can completely replace the firewood we use now. With it, we don't have to worry about insufficient firewood at all. , let alone worry about how long the wind and snow will blow, we only need to wait for the wind and snow to stop. At that time, we will organize our troops and horses, go straight to the Huanglong Turkic King's City, and capture the Turkic King, and everything will be done!"
Luo Zhang's words made everyone's eyes light up, and their eyes lit up when they looked at the burning coals in the fire!
