Chapter 376 New Year's Eve Dinner
It seems that what the guy said is right. There are really people coming from south to north. The world is really big. Once Liu Lin thought that Yanggu County and even Guihua Tower were the whole world. He is free like a king in this narrow space, but now, although his small town is much smaller than Yanggu. , but the amorous feelings presented here are indeed unprecedented.
The stone hand came out of the inn and found a clean and shady place to sit down. Although the town is in the desert, the surface is not made of soft sand. Many places are paved with stone slabs very similar to Yanggu. There is no place to lay slate, and I don't know how to make the surface. It has become very hard. If the wind in the air is still dry and annoying, the illusion that it is no longer in the desert will be stronger.
Such a leisurely time passed very quickly. Soon, the sky darkened a little, and the night was coming. Perhaps because of the New Year, there is a mixed smell of meat and gunpowder in the air, which smells mild and stimulating, just like the life of stone hands.
There are only two kinds of members of the town, one is the business people in the town, and the other is the business travelers. Perhaps because it is too dangerous and desolate to do business in the desert, these shops are only supported by men, and they do not bring their wives and children with them. Almost all business travelers are men, which can also be explained. After all, it is indeed a little troublesome to bring women on such a long road.
This brings a strange scenery to the town, where all young men, old people, women and children have disappeared in this town. Usually, you may not feel anything, but when it comes to the New Year, it will seem very strange. After all, in the New Year, men should stay still and wait for women to serve. This is the most natural welfare after a year.
The sky gradually darkened, and the stone hand found a scene that surprised him. On the east side of the sky, the red ghost shined there, coating everything in the town with a light red. Although he was extremely familiar with the reaction caused by the red ghost, he was indeed extremely shocked at this moment.
Since entering the desert, the red ghost has never appeared again, and on the edge of the desert, the stone hand has also done experiments. There is a clear dividing line whether the red ghost appears or not. In the past few days, every night, the stone hand has deliberately looked at whether the red ghost appears, but every time he sees, It is an empty eastern sky.
I didn't expect that the red ghost appeared again this time. Could it be that this town in the desert does not belong to the desert? It's ridiculous to think about this sudden reason, but it's much more reasonable to think about it carefully. The land here is hard and there is no sand on it. Although it is surrounded by desert, it can be said that this is not a desert. Just like rivers and lakes are surrounded by land, it can't be said that the water is also land.
Thinking of this, Shishou was much more at ease. He looked at the red ghost and enjoyed this strange night. The surface slowly became cold, and the cold pierced Shishou's clothes, making his back feel itchy because of the cold. He also stood up and stretched his muscles and bones vigorously. At this time, it's almost time to go to the restaurant to think about the New Year's Eve dinner. The owner of this restaurant is really good at doing business. The drinks are free, but the food is still cashier. No businessman will be stingy on New Year's Eve, and most merchants know that they need to stay awake all the time. Otherwise, if there is any problem with the goods, it will not be worth the loss, so the wine should not be consumed much.
If Guihualou dares to say which day the wine is free, the drunkards in Quanyang Valley will gather here and drink a drop of the wine cellar of Guihualou. Shishou knows the character of those alcoholics. They eat wine and hardly use any wine dishes. Need to say, Wu Song once told Shi Shou that when he was embarrassed, he once drank five catties of wine with a pair of beef, which was almost a little meat dregs and had to drink a big sip. When Wu Song told Shi Shou about this, he still used a ostentatious tone.
When thinking about these old things, Shishou has arrived at the restaurant he went to during the day. There are more than a dozen tables in the canteen here, and the people are almost full, and only a small table left in the corner is idle there. I think it's because the table is really small, and there are fewer business travelers in the desert. If you don't eat with other travel companions on New Year's Eve, you will more or less feel lonely. The large number of business groups would rather squeeze, which happens to be a stone hand.
He sat at the small table. The evening recipes are unified, and the guys said that they would not be provided with any choices during the New Year. Only a moment later, Shishou's table placed a plate of air-dried meat and a plate of meat that smells very fragrant. Looking at other people's tables, although there are a little more things, it is generally this kind of dish. Shishou misses those green dishes, but he also knows that he wants to It is really too difficult to eat those things in the desert.
At this time, Shishou really wants to talk to other people, but language has become the biggest obstacle. Although some people can be recognized in Chinese, Shishou can't understand the specific meaning at all, while others are completely Fanbang slang. As long as Shishou listens one or two sentences, he feels that he is not covered. Comfortable.
Wh or not, it's not enough to talk, talk about inner sadness, and talk about the sadness of the past. Shishou's meal was very slow, and the air-dried dried meat tasted delicious and melted in the mouth, which made Shishou reluctant to chew as usual. If so, he would feel a little violent. Only here in the desert, the dry and hot wind can dry the meat just right. This is not enough in the Central Plains. The broth is even more delicious. It has a delicious taste that can't be tasted in the Central Plains. It is thought that some unique spices in the desert have been added, but Shishou carefully searched in the soup and did not find anything similar to the Central Plains such as green onions, ginger, garlic, or Sichuan peppers. It seems that every place will choose what can be obtained nearby in cooking according to local conditions. At this moment, Shishou had a fantasy. He fantasized about taking the food here to Yanggu and let the Osmanthus Tower cook this unique desert style.
