Chapter 897: Fighting Beasts
In the afternoon, when the hunt was carried out, the harvest was abundant, and the prey piled on the cart was as high as a hill, and there were hundreds of them.
Yu Jingyao wiped the sweat from his forehead and ordered: "Everyone stop and rest, set up a pot to boil water, boil these prey, and fill their stomachs." ”
After working for a long time, everyone was hungry, and when they heard Yu Jingyao's order, they cheered one by one and went to prepare to boil water and boil meat.
The soldiers picked a few tender prey, skinned them, gutted them, chopped off their heads and tails, and then cut the prey into pieces of fresh meat.
On the other side, the soldiers gathered a pile of firewood, went to the river and washed the pot, filled the pot with water, and then made a fire to boil the water.
Xia Yu asked, "How are you going to eat this meat?"
The soldiers said, "Cook the meat, take it out and eat it with salt." ”
Qianyuan Kingdom did not have much food culture, and when he caught meat, he either ate it raw, or cooked it and dipped it in salt.
Xia Yu said: "If you eat like this, you can't taste anything, it's a waste." ”
"Can't you eat it?General Xia, you can taste our boiled meat," the soldier thought that this boiled meat was a rare delicacy in the world.
Xia Yu said: "Let's change the way we eat." ”
"What else do you eat?" the soldiers asked.
Xia Yu said: "Let's build a fire and roast and eat." ”
The soldiers shook their heads one after another and said, "The barbecue meat is not delicious, either it is mushy or undercooked, and it will have diarrhea after eating." ”
"You didn't master the heat, come, I'll bake it for you myself," Xia Yu rolled up his sleeves, washed his hands, and prepared to grill the skewers.
The soldiers looked at Xia Yu blankly, feeling a little incredible. Xia Yu was the champion of the Warrior Conference, and the Sanpin guards with knives took the initiative to give them ordinary soldiers a barbecue, which made them flattered.
"General Xia, you are a noble person, how can you give us a barbecue, isn't this tormenting us?"
Xia Yu said: "What kind of noble person, I am the same as you, I am a human being. Don't move, you won't roast, don't spoil the meat. ”
Xia Yu took out the dagger, cut the meat into a moderate thickness, took a branch, skewered the meat, and said: "This barbecue, one is that the ingredients should be fresh, the second is to master the heat, and the third is the seasoning, but you don't have any seasoning here." ”
One of the soldiers said, "The king's kitchen has spices there." ”
"Okay, I'll give you some points," Xia Yu went to the imperial kitchen.
The imperial chef knew Xia Yu's identity, so he didn't say a word, and took out a lot of spices and asked Xia Yu to pick them at will.
Xia Yu took back the seasoning, lit a fire, grilled meat skewers on the fire, and the soldiers gathered around the fire, looking at Xia Yu curiously. Xia Yu used Di Junxing's skills to master the heat, and sprinkled seasonings while kebabs.
(In "Water Margin", Di Junxing is an iron fan-Song Qing, who is responsible for setting up a banquet on Liangshan, and his cooking skills are the imagination skills of this book)
Xia Yu enjoyed the barbecue process very much, his eyebrows fluttered, and he hummed a little song.
"Okay, the fragrant meat skewers are ready, you can taste them," Xia Yu grabbed a handful of meat skewers and handed them to the soldiers next to him.
The soldiers were hungry when they smelled the smell of barbecue, and when they looked at the oily meat skewers, their saliva was soaking their feet.
There was the anxious soldier, who took the meat skewer and took a bite, and the roast meat was in his mouth, and the soldier's eyes widened like a ball, and the whole person was motionless and fixed there.
"What's wrong, is it delicious?" asked the soldier next to him.
The soldier chewed on the barbecue in his mouth, and tears flowed from his eyes, "It's delicious, it's delicious, it's delicious." I've never eaten anything so delicious in my life. ”
The soldiers ate one after another, and each of them had an expression of extreme enjoyment on their faces.
"Well, it's delicious, it's delicious. ”
The soldiers divided five by two, and ate the meat skewers in their hands cleanly.
Xia Yu grilled a few more skewers of meat and gave them to Yu Jingyao and Yu Deyuan's father and son. Originally, with the respect of King Qianyuan and the crown prince, they couldn't eat food outside the imperial dining room, but Yu Jingyao and Yu Deyuan didn't care, they took Xia Yu's meat skewers and ate them, and the father and son applauded again and again.
Everyone who ate the barbecue was conquered by Xia Yu's exquisite craftsmanship, and laughter and laughter rang out.
The bursts of laughter sounded as uncomfortable as a steel needle piercing the ears of the Huan family and the Yu family.
Huan Jiutian looked at Xia Yu and said to Yu Wangu: "Brother Wangu, let's just look at the kid surnamed Shi, so arrogant?"
Yu Wangu's face was gloomy and he didn't speak. every day
Huan Jiutian said again: "If we don't win back this face today, our Huan Yu family will not be able to gain a foothold in Qianyuan Country in the future." ”
Yu Wangu was silent for a long time, gritted his teeth, and said: "Let's play ruthlessly, and completely extinguish the prestige of that Xia Yu." ”
Yu Wangu walked over to Yu Jingyao, Yu Jingyao and Yu Deyuan were sitting by the fire, drinking wine and eating the kebabs sent by Xia Yu.
Yu Jingyao looked at Yu Wangu and put down the wine jar in his hand.
Yu Wangu bowed to Yu Jingyao and said, "Your Majesty, now that everyone is full of wine and food, it's a little boring to stay here, so it's better to let everyone have some fun." ”
"Lezi, what kind of fun are you looking for?" Yu Jingyao looked at Yu Wangu and thought to himself, Yu Wangu must have some bad idea.
Yu Wangu said: "Your Majesty, let's catch some fierce demon beasts, it's better to release these demon beasts and have a death fight with the warriors." ”
The so-called death match is that a man and a beast face each other, and one of the humans and beasts must die before this duel can be considered to be over.
Yu Jingyao frowned and said, "Yu Aiqing, everyone came out to hunt today, they were happy, and they were all very happy, you have to engage in some kind of deathmatch, isn't it a bit of a bad scenery?"
Yu Wangu shouted: "Your Majesty, the ancestors of our Qianyuan Kingdom have relied on their courage to establish the foundation of thousands of generations, how can our descendants lose the blood of our ancestors." ”
At this time, everyone from the Huan family and the Yu family shouted beside them: "Yes, king, let the warriors fight to the death with the demon beasts, the real warriors will not be afraid of the demon beasts." ”
Yu Jingyao looked at the Huan family and the Yu family, a little impatient, and said: "Okay, since you want to fight to the death with the demon beasts, the widow will not stop you, just go and fight." ”
Yu Wangu showed a hint of a smile and said, "Thank you." ”
Yu Jingyao handed over the matter of organizing a death match to the Huan family, and Huan Jiutian chose a vacant land, ordered the soldiers to clean up the clearing, and then dug a square trench around the clearing. The scope of this trench is the death arena.
Huan Jiutian ordered the soldiers to hold large jars one by one, open the jars, pour the viscous liquid inside into the trenches, and fill the trenches.
After the field was cleaned up, the soldiers carried an iron cage into the field, which contained a large giant spirit wolf. The giant spirit demon wolf was lying in the iron cage, squinting his eyes, as if he was asleep, but he was actually observing the situation around him.
The soldiers lowered their iron cages, opened the cage doors, and quickly fled the death arena.
As soon as the cage door was opened, the giant spirit demon wolf immediately shook his spirits, and suddenly rushed out, revealing his fierce face, and rushed towards the crowd outside the venue.
Huan Jiutian was not in a hurry, took a torch, and lit the liquid in the trench. The liquid in the trench was all specially made fire turtle oil, which was stained with sparks, and with a snort, it burst into flames, burning four walls of fire around the death arena.
Seeing the flames of the fire turtle oil, the giant spirit demon wolf showed a look of horror, stopped and took a few steps back, and was trapped in the death arena.
The Giant Spirit Demon Wolf was afraid of the flames ignited by the Fire Turtle Oil, and lit a wall of fire around the Death Arena, so that the Giant Spirit Demon Wolf would not run out of the Death Arena.
Huan Jiutian said: "This is a giant spirit demon wolf, which is equivalent to the sixfold cultivation of the Spirit Martial Realm, is there anyone willing to fight to the death with it?"
The strength of the giant spirit demon wolf, whether it is strong or not, whether it is weak or not, the guards looked at the giant spirit demon wolf surrounded by flames, and they were all a little tempted.
Winning in a deathmatch is a great honor. If they can get Yu Jingyao's favor again, the guards will change their fate, be prosperous and rich, and enjoy inexhaustible.
Many of the guards are from the grassroots, and if the grassroots want to climb up, they can only rely on strength and life to fight.
One of the guards stood up and shouted, "I'm willing to fight to the death with this giant spirit wolf!"
At the age of sixteen or seventeen, when he was young and vigorous, the guard took off his shirt, exposed his tendons, jumped into the death arena.
Surrounded by flames, the Giant Spirit Demon Wolf was restless, and suddenly, someone jumped to his side, and the Giant Spirit Demon Wolf immediately threw his anger at this person.
"Ahh
The giant spirit demon wolf roared and pounced on the guard, the guard dodged sideways, avoiding the attack of the giant spirit demon wolf, but the guard was shocked into a cold sweat, the speed of the giant spirit demon wolf was too fast.
The Djinn Demon Wolf missed the blow and turned around, staring at the guards with a fierce glint in his eyes, and let out a low roar in his throat that sounded creepy.
The guard felt that two flying swords shot out of the eyes of the giant spirit demon wolf, piercing into his heart, he subconsciously stepped back, and regretted that he shouldn't have jumped into the death arena so hastily.
Outside the death arena, everyone shouted, cheering for the guard, "Little Liuzi, kill that giant spirit wolf, kill it, kill it, kill it!~~~"
In the cheering and cheering of his comrades, Xiao Liuzi raised his courage again, roared, and pounced on the giant spirit demon wolf.
The giant spirit demon wolf opened its teeth and claws, pounced on Xiao Liuzi, and bit down on Xiao Liuzi's throat. Xiao Liuzi hurriedly dodged, and his throat was not bitten by the Giant Spirit Demon Wolf, but a piece of meat was torn off his shoulder by the Giant Spirit Demon Wolf.
Xiao Liuzi screamed, he no longer had the courage to fight with the Giant Spirit Demon Wolf, he endured the pain, turned around and ran, and the Giant Spirit Demon Wolf chased after him.
Xiao Liuzi was injured, and he couldn't run away from the giant spirit demon wolf at all, seeing that the giant spirit demon wolf was about to catch up, in a hurry, Xiao Liuzi jumped over the wall of fire and fled to the outside of the death arena.
The giant spirit demon wolf stopped, and grinned at the little six sons through the wall of fire.
