Seeing that these two hungry ghosts had returned to the world for a limited time, the second brother, who felt a sense of mission, quickly got up, rushed to the back kitchen, brought a pot of honey water prepared, rushed over, and opened the door When Menren left, he did not forget to tell the master cook, who was huddled next to the stove and taking a nap, to prepare four dishes and one soup.
The honey water, which is not sweet at all, is warm and goes into the mouth very smoothly, then passes through the throat, and finally poured into the stomach, quenching the annoying thirst and bringing about a sigh.
Xie Jingsong drank three cups in a row, leaned back comfortably on the chair, and listened to the second brother's words: "I have prepared four dishes and one soup for you two. They are all the specialty of the master chef in the store. What do you two think?"
She turned her gaze to Zhang Yunqing's face and listened to what the human-shaped wallet said.
"Okay, the price is easy to tell." When Zhang Yunqing, who was busy drinking water, saw her like this, her eldest lady's demeanor suddenly changed. She held the cup and cleared her throat and said, "Let's go ahead, we have some hungry."
Having been involved in cooking techniques for many years, the old chef's skills are particularly good, and his courage is also quite good.
The first thing that was served was pig intestines soaked in peppercorn water, stir-fried with a lot of green onions, and without even having to smell it, the heat that hit your face was filled with the aroma of strong liquor. Drill, I'm almost drunk just by smelling it.
Although no chili pepper was added due to the constraints of the times, Xie Jingsong felt very regretful, but probably the hunger would double the taste. As she crunched and bit into the greasy intestines, she closed her eyes and was so happy that she almost ascended to heaven. .
The subsequent rice, dishes and soup also maintained its star level.
While concentrating on eating, Zhang Yunqing suddenly felt the burning gaze of the person sitting across the table. She was not looking at him blatantly, but looked at him coyly, as if he was holding back a lot of bad water.
She was a little scared. She quickly swallowed the food in her mouth and took a drink of water to moisten her throat. She asked, "If you have anything to say, please tell me quickly..."
Xie Jingsong smiled shyly and encouraged: "Do you want to eat it every day in the future..."
"To cultivate immortality, one should restrain oneself and not indulge one's own desires," Zhang Yunqing rubbed the edge of the bowl and said reluctantly, "I don't want to."
"This is not considered indulgence. You don't have to live until the end to realize that cultivating immortals means destroying human desires. That won't work." I feel worried when I think, "Everything is a slow process, just don't treat yourself badly."
Cultivation of immortals can give you boundless magic power and endless lifespan, which is good, but the life of a mortal is not completely meaningless and short.
Zhang Yunqing, who was still a little confused, made a confused voice: "Well..."
"Stop, look at our master, he is such a... well," Xie Jingsong thought for a while and said politely but not too politely, "The handsome guy who likes Qingxiu... even the old people have mysteries about the broken tea leaves. Ordinary persistence, he has not completely cut off the seven emotions and six desires, right?"
This topic was still too early for Zhang Yunqing, who had just entered the path of immortality. She nodded stupidly, as if something came out of the right ear as soon as she stuffed it into her left ear.
Xie Jingsong smiled helplessly: "Forget it, let's talk about the rest later. Let's go to the merchant house to buy some necessary things later. We will find an inn to stay for one night and hire some carriages to take everything back tomorrow morning. .”
Speaking of which, in the world of cultivation, can they find a spiritual beast to sign a contract? Although it would be fun to fly with the Wind Talisman, but if she could sign a contract with a unicorn, a Pegasus or something...
Regardless of whether it exists or not, think about it first, after all, the world of magical cultivation is omnipotent!
In Xie Jingsong's eyes, Qu Yijiu's "pure cultivation" is just "hard cultivation". Necessary things for home life such as pots, pans, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, etc., only have the word "tea" in them, and they are still both fancy and weird. Some of them, so the things they went down the mountain to buy should be more than one carriage could pull.
While walking around, the night squeezed away the dusk left by the setting sun. A hook-like crescent moon hangs in the sky, casting soft moon-white light, while people on the ground respond to it with strings of hanging lanterns.
The light of the lanterns is dim and dim, but there are several hanging on each stall. Counting from the street, they are connected end to end to the last stall, which naturally creates an ambiguous and hazy atmosphere.
The night market has started.
It was the first time for Xie Jingsong, who had just arrived, to encounter an ancient night market, and it was not the first time for Zhang Yunqing, who stayed at home, to try it.
The two of them didn't say anything. They just looked at each other and immediately clicked. They immediately started walking in the crowded night market with their broken coins in their pockets.
Unlike Zhang Yunqing, who picks out beautiful jewelry everywhere, Xie Jingsong, who relies on food, is looking forward to different surprises.
...Indeed, it was, but it would be more appropriate to say it was frightening.
She's so stupid, really, she's so stupid. She had known that there should be no strict requirements on the hygiene concepts of ancient civilians, but she never expected that they would be so informal.
On top of the baked sugar cookie she queued up to buy! it turns out! have! Booger!
Ahhhhhhhhhh! ! !
Since sucrose in this era had not yet been refined, people usually ate sticky caramel. After eating, they had to stuff their hands into their mouths and swish them carefully, leaving no trace behind even between their fingernails.
And the pancakes she bought were filled with this kind of caramel. They are small round pieces pressed out of coarse flour mixed with wheat bran, and baked in a muddy stove by the stall owner.
Logically speaking, it shouldn’t be too unpalatable. Carbohydrates, sugar and baking, no matter how you think about the combination of these three ingredients, they should be at least on a par, right?
Who knew that as soon as she took her mouth, the pebbles hidden in the pancake came out and punched her teeth, causing half of her face to twitch!
Adhering to the principle of not wasting, Xie Jingsong took another bite with tears in her eyes, and tasted, well, a small piece of salty, weird-tasting food. She was confused for a moment, and she couldn't figure out what seasoning was added to it. .
Until she was so happy that she suddenly turned her head and saw the stall owner picking his nose boldly and uninhibitedly! He continued kneading the dough without washing his hands after picking it! Ahhhhhhhhhh!
There are still so many people waiting to buy his baked sugar cookies!
The frustrated Xie Jingsong leaned against Zhang Yunqing, grabbed her arm with trembling hands, and said firmly: "Go back."
"Well, let's go," Zhang Yunqing, who felt that the accessories were quite shoddy, nodded and said, "Aren't you going to eat this cake?"
Xie Jingsong, who was thinking about how to deal with it, thought for a moment: "Take it back to the inn and keep it."
"It's just a piece of sugar cake, what's there to collect..."
Xie Jingsong looked quietly at the sky.
The two of them were chatting while walking to the inn. When they turned a corner and they were there, Zhang Yunqing felt as if someone was holding the hem of her skirt. She was so frightened that goosebumps broke out all over her body and she hugged her on the spot. Xie Jingsong was about to scream.
The one who spoke before her was a hoarse male voice: "Cake! I want to eat cake! Sugar cake! Give it to me!!!!"
