"It smells so good, can I eat it?"
Ran Xiuniang looked pitifully at the muntjac meat on the shelf, holding Huan Huan's hand tightly, with obvious greed.
Huan Huan's eyes were a little surprised, but also full of curiosity. But he couldn't stand the smell of meat, so he couldn't help but get closer to Liu Jixing. She was sitting on a stone nearby, as quiet and ethereal as a fairy. However, people who are tempted by the aroma of meat cannot restrain themselves. Even a fairy who has been demoted to the mortal world may not be able to endure hunger.
Huarui sat next to Liu Jixing and naturally saw the expressions of the two people. She has experienced more vicissitudes than these people, especially in recent times, she has experienced many twists and turns. At this time, seeing the pitiful appearance of the two people, she naturally couldn't bear it. She couldn't help but pinched Liu Jixing and whispered angrily: "You make people salivate but don't let them eat. You are so bad!" Her angry look was extremely charming. , Huan Huan's beauty is no less than hers, but she lacks the charm of her body.
"Don't be anxious! Don't be anxious!" Not only did Hua Rui not know how to exert force, Liu Jixing wouldn't care even if he exerted force. Seeing that everyone was hungry, Liu Jixing actually felt greedy himself: "Don't rush this freshly roasted meat, or you may burn it!" Liu Jixing held a standard dagger and pointed it at the thick meat of the muntjac. Wherever you go, just a few knives. When the meat is turned over, bursts of oil appear.
Seeing that everyone seemed impatient, Liu Jixing continued to sprinkle the ingredients on top and said: "Now that the fire has reduced, you can eat it right away. But before eating this muntjac meat, there is one more thing Let me give you something good to try!" He picked up a small branch and pulled out a lump of gray stuff from under the red charcoal fire.
Maybe because the charcoal fire was too strong, there were still some sparks in this mass. Because everyone didn't get too close when they were cleaning up the muntjacs just now, they didn't know what Liu Jixing was packing. But seeing the proud look on his face, I felt a bit hopeful.
Liu Jixing waved to Huanhuan and Ran Xiuniang proudly, and Ran Xiuniang pursed her lips slightly, but Huanhuan was like a gust of wind, her feet slightly touching the stone, and she rushed towards them. Because Ran Xiuniang held Huan Huan's arm, she screamed in surprise, and before her voice could finish, she was already close to Liu Jixing. Because the stamens sit on the left, they fall on the right.
But they saw Liu Jixing evacuating all the firewood from the fire to the ditch aside, and then, regardless of the muntjac that was placed on the charcoal fire, he peeled off the skin of the gray thing. Only then did everyone realize that this thing was wrapped in many layers and seemed to be wrapped in some kind of leaves. As the layers were pulled, a rich and fragrant smell gradually came out, and even Ran Xiuniang couldn't help but salivate.
"What is this! It smells so good!" Huan Huan couldn't help but praise. She seemed to have become more sensible after being with Liu Jixing every day. Although he seldom speaks, when he does speak, he seems to have his own ideas gradually. Moreover, she also regarded Liu Jixing as her own relative and would not think too much about anything. Of course, this is inseparable from Liu Jixing, because he didn't teach her anything bad.
But when the black color on the outer skin of the package was almost gone, Liu Jixing took the large bamboo bowl that was cut on a short stone and placed it in the hands of Huarui and Huanhuan. Seeing that Ran Xiuniang was pouting but at least not speaking, she placed a cut banana leaf next to the package, and finally carefully moved all the items there to the banana leaf.
When he saw Liu Jixing holding up the banana leaf, he said in a mysterious voice: "Xiu Niang, use chopsticks to open this thing, and then put it into the bamboo bowl!"
Hearing Liu Jixing's instructions, Ran Xiuniang's heart trembled slightly. Seeing him looking at her with a smile, Ran Xiuniang felt nervous for no reason. She picked up the bamboo chopsticks that Liu Jixing had just cut and carefully peeled off the last few layers of leaves. Pull away.
"Wow, what is this? It smells so good!"
Seeing the meat wrapped in leaves, although it didn't seem to be much, the mouth-watering aroma made the three women cheer.
Ran Xiuniang had long forgotten her unhappy things. She took her chopsticks and rushed into the two bamboo bowls, and said nervously: "This soup doesn't have much juice, it must taste better. You, hold it carefully, don't spill it." It’s time to pour it into the bowl!” She cheered and screamed like a child, and told Liu Jixing who was holding the banana leaves with a cheerful look on her face.
How could Liu Jixing spill it? It was because the wrapped stuff was too hot at first, but now it was no longer so hot after he opened it. However, when she saw Ran Xiuniang's nervous look, although she felt funny in her heart, she thought that she had not been happy in the past two days, so she looked at her with a smile and said nothing.
"Hmm, it smells so good! It's simply a delicacy in the world. Can you try some for me?" A sudden voice sounded, and someone quickly ran over.
Everyone looked over in astonishment and saw an old man in linen clothes, carrying a bamboo bag, emerging from nowhere. He had a gray beard and a round, red face. Without hiding the desire in his eyes, he stood in front of the four people, looking at the roasted muntjac meat on the fire for a while, and then looking at the bamboo bowls in the hands of the two people, but his mouth watered.
Although these people were a little surprised, Liu Jixing actually felt it when he approached. However, because he did not hide himself, it was only about ten miles away from the nearby places with people, so it was not surprising to see people. After coming down from Langshan, Liu Jixing was afraid of meeting some reclusive people and causing unnecessary trouble, so he chose to walk near inhabited areas.
Everyone didn't bring much dry food, but Liu Jixing didn't pay much attention. Not to mention his good cooking skills, Liu Jixing has learned bow and horse since he was a child, so hunting is not a problem. Liu Jixing was also very cunning. He chose a sixty or seventy pound muntjac to start with, and then found a place near the water source to clean up.
"Have you been here for a long time? Are you hungry?" Huan Huan looked at the old man hesitantly. She was different from Liu Jixing. Although she had been in a coma for so many years, as her body slowly recovered, her cultivation level had improved. Also in the slow reply. And because his intelligence is not that of an adult, looking at the old man's appearance, he naturally couldn't help but speak. He hesitantly handed over the bowl in his hand, but his eyes were a little reluctant.
This old man was indeed a little greedy. Seeing that several people were very young, he actually felt a little embarrassed. However, he glanced at Huan Huan thoughtfully, and said with a coquettish smile: "This is a good feeling, this stuff is so fragrant, I don't know what it is made of, let me try it!" He didn't mean to be polite at all, He really took the bowl and chopsticks from Huan Huan's hand, picked up the contents and stuffed them into his mouth.
Huarui had tasted Liu Jixing's craftsmanship. Seeing Huanhuan stunned and Ran Xiuniang frowning, she handed her bamboo bowl to Huanhuan: "Huanhuan, just eat mine!" Huanhuan was a little stunned. , glanced at the stamens, and his eyes smiled happily like crescent moons, but he did not immediately take the bowl of the stamens, but looked at Liu Jixing.
"Huanhuan, just have one portion for you, Huarui and Xiu Niang. We can get these at any time if we need to eat on the way, not to mention there are such big muntjacs today!" Liu Jixing said cheerfully.
"Yes! Qingnu, I remember meeting Mr. She and Granny She in the ancient city. The meat they smoked was so fragrant!" Thinking of the beauty at that time, Hua Rui suddenly felt her heart full of happiness!
"It's delicious, it's so delicious!" The old man with a gray beard smacked his lips and drank all the juice from the bamboo bowl. Seeing everyone looking at me, I realized that these young people obviously haven't tasted it yet. Although his face was a little red, he couldn't hold back his saliva when he saw the sizzling and oily muntjac meat roasted on the wooden rack. But he seemed to suddenly think of something, so he put down the bamboo bag on his back, sat on a stone beside him, and actually took out a wine gourd.
"How about it! Young man, you have the meat and I have the wine!" He actually had a flattering look on his face and couldn't look away from the muntjac meat.
Liu Jixing did not answer immediately, but when he saw the three women tasting the meat in the bamboo bowl with relish, he turned his head to look at the old man, and with his knife flying, he broke the muntjac that passed through in front of him in two. At the same time, he threw the half of the muntjac meat onto a clean banana leaf spread aside, and drew it into a strip about two fingers wide. Finally, he smiled at the old man and said: "There is a lot of meat today, and the old man is lucky. Please enjoy it as you like." !”
Hearing what Liu Jixing said, the old man's eyes lit up. Looking at the knife in Liu Jixing's hand, he shook his head and said, "Good knife, good technique! But this meat is even better!" He looked at him happily holding it between his hands. He picked up a rib in the middle of his waist, started to chew on it, and then praised vaguely: "It's delicious, it's delicious, it's delicious in the world!"
Liu Jixing smiled slightly and didn't care. He carefully cut the meat into three-finger strips and gave each of the three women a portion. But the old man here almost devoured it. Everyone here only had a few mouthfuls, and he had already eaten three pieces. However, a fragrance came from the wine jug he unscrewed. He also knew some etiquette and handed the greasy wine gourd to Liu Jixing's hand. Liu Jixing was a little dumbfounded.
It wasn't that Liu Jixing had a mysophobia, but when he saw that the mouth of the wine bottle was covered with the old man's saliva, he lost interest no matter how good his appetite was. The old man didn't mind at all, but he suddenly smiled secretly, and once again took out a fist-sized wine gourd from his bamboo backpack and handed it over. This time Liu Jixing was not polite and couldn't help laughing when he saw this funny old man.
Maybe it was because the taste was so delicious, because no one in this era was doing such delicious food, and Liu Jixing was always a foodie. After a while, even the most elegant stamens ate three pieces of ribs in a row, one piece was two fingers wide. Leg meat three fingers long. Among the three girls, Ran Xiuniang ate the most. The barbarians originally had this kind of barbecue, but how could it compare with Liu Jixing's preparation? (To be continued.)
