Chapter 394: Spicy Snails
Add two spoons of oil to the pot, heat until smoking, add dried chili, pepper, garlic foam, anise, bean paste and other seasonings, after the incense, pour in half a basin of washed snails, stir-fry over high heat. Later, pour in rice wine to remove the smell and fragrance, because the snail meat is cold, and pouring rice wine has the effect of driving away the cold.
When the fragrance is stir-fried, pour water and add salt, and the water is just over the snails. After the heat is boiling, change to low heat and simmer. After a while, the unique fragrance of snails permeated the room.
Chu Yingtai was watching in the kitchen, first, he was afraid that Zheng Xinyan would do something in the food, and secondly, he wanted to see how hard this thing was cooking. Li Qingyun was accompanying his wife in the living room, smelling the fragrance, and suddenly came to his senses, and deliberately ran into the kitchen to take a few looks.
While slowly simmering snails, Zheng Xinyan kept keeping his hands on his hands, and he was busy with other special Sichuan dishes. Steamed chicken, mapo tofu, husband and wife lung slices, fish-flavored shredded pork, boiled fish, shredded beef, spicy cucumber strips, red oil kimchi and a sour and spicy soup......
Li Qingyun didn't see the demeanor of this product when he cast the spell, but he could see that this product was born to be a good cook. With his skills, it seems that he is more powerful than Li Xiaochu, and his ancestral skills are not trivial, and they can catch up with them by not countrymen who can catch up with them after a few years of random groping.
Li Qingyun pinched his chin and thought for a long time, and a malicious smile began to appear on his face.
"Brother Li, this spicy snail is almost ready, I want to add some ancestral soup packets, I wonder if you would like to taste it? This thing is fragrant, but it is not suitable for pregnant women and children. Zheng Xinyan almost finished the other dishes, and then took out a white gauze bag the size of a walnut from the sundries bag he carried with him.
Before Li Qingyun could speak, Chu Yingtai smiled first: "Don't let it go." Lest everyone misunderstand. ”
"It's really just an ancestral material package for flavoring, the main ingredient is a big cigarette shell, plus thirteen kinds of special spices, stewed soup and boiled meat with a little bit, it's just a fairy-like taste. As long as pregnant women and children don't eat it, we adults eat a little, and it doesn't hurt. Zheng Xinyan saw that some people objected, it was a pity, and he raised the material package in his hand and explained aggrievedly.
Li Qingyun knew about it. In fact, it was originally a type of traditional Chinese medicine. Also known as poppy, corn husk, it has the effect of astringent lungs, astringent intestines and pain. It is often used for long-term cough, long-term diarrhea, prolapse of the anus, abdominal pain and other symptoms. However, some small restaurants will also add some when boiling soup, which has the effect of enhancing freshness and flavor. Its shell produces a special fragrance. Eating for a long time can be addictive. But when consumed in small amounts, it is harmless to humans.
"Hehe, very unfortunate. There are pregnant women here, and there are also children, so don't let them go today. If you want to eat, we can continue to cook it in the afternoon, and there is a water tank outside. Li Qingyun didn't want to take risks, for fear that Zheng Xinyan would do something in the material.
Zheng Xinyan was disappointed, so he had to hope for the next time. After the spicy snails are cooked, other dishes are also served very quickly, and the strong fragrance spreads indoors. Yang Yunu, who has not had a good appetite recently, also sat down at the table early, waiting for Master Zheng's meal. Two children held knives, forks and chopsticks, urging them to hurry up and serve the food.
The spicy snails are served directly in a small basin, and the red pepper and green pickled pepper are very conspicuous inside, and as for the other ingredients, they have been stewed and unclear. As soon as he smelled this fragrance, Li Qingyun couldn't help drooling, took one with his hand, didn't use a toothpick, and put it directly in his mouth to suck, the spicy and slightly numb snail meat had already entered his mouth, spit out the scales on his mouth, and chewed it carefully, which was beautiful.
I couldn't stop eating this time, Li Qingyun couldn't care about anything else, shouted that it was delicious, poured a glass of old wine, ate a few snail meat and drank a sip of old wine, how beautiful it was, and even the idea of revenge against Zheng Xinyan was a little lighter. However, since the goods fell into his hands, he must have fallen a few layers of skin, and he will never give up if he does not squeeze his strength out in the afternoon.
Chu Yingtai and Zheng Xinyan smelled the aroma of wine, and they had already pulled chairs and sat on the table, without Li Qingyun's politeness, they poured the wine themselves. Chu Yingtai had already drunk the space storage wine, and Zheng Xinyan couldn't help but be overjoyed when he drank the food containing a faint aura for the first time, and after a few sips, he was secretly frightened.
Because he thought, if there are materials containing aura in the daily diet, then what kind of background should there be to produce such a character? The sect he belongs to belongs to the middle and upper class in the rivers and lakes, and he has not seen several ingredients containing aura in the sect for more than ten years, and even when the head of the sect is in retreat and cultivation, he uses half a ginseng that he bought temporarily, and the year is less than 100 years.
Compared with Li Qingyun, the head is not even as good as a beggar. If you look at other people, not to mention selling 100-year-old ginseng and 100-year-old yellow essence for money, the food and drink at home actually have a faint aura. Radish for cooking, Chinese cabbage for kimchi...... There is a faint aura in it, and if you say it, can other spiritual cultivators live?
Therefore, Zheng Xinyan was so worried about this meal, even if it was delicious, he couldn't get the excitement he deserved. On the contrary, the two children were so excited that they shouted and said that today's food was delicious, much better than the food cooked by Li Xiaochu.
The same ingredient, of course, the better the craftsmanship, the better the taste. Li Qingyun's craftsmanship, which is a halfway monk, is generally good, but it can't be savored. And Li Xiaochu and his father belong to the wild road, most of them are found out by themselves, and they don't have much heritage and inheritance. Compared with Zheng Xinyan, an ancestral craft that has been passed down for I don't know how many generations, it is naturally incomparable.
After eating, the two children ran back, and it was estimated that it would be time to go to school in a while. And Li Qingyun had already asked people to prepare a few roosters and throw them at the gate, so that the gold and copper coins could be watched, just in case.
Zheng Xinyan knew that he couldn't hide, and he didn't talk nonsense, he just said that he didn't let others disturb him when he was doing it. He also said that the rooster was useless, it was used to deceive ordinary people and increase the atmosphere of terror. True spirituality, with the use of temporary magic weapons, can arrange formations and control the vitality around them.
Li Qingyun and Chu Yingtai found him a quiet place, let him sit quietly for a while, and let him heal or collect his mind, as long as he gets things done.
Yang Yunu could also sense Zheng Xinyan's spiritual identity, and when he saw them mysteriously gathered together, he quietly followed. Li Qingyun saw that she was interested, and he didn't hide it from her, so he told her what happened in the morning.
When Yang Yunu heard this, he was immediately furious and said: "Xu Jingshou next door is really not a thing, we don't have anything to do with them." They actually asked the spirituals to harm us. No wonder I felt that the vitality around me was in turmoil, it turned out that someone had set up a formation to disrupt the vitality of our farm. ”
"Don't be angry, don't be angry. No, our grandfather has caught this goods and left it to me. Not to mention anything else, it is impossible to save Xu Jingshou from tasting the consequences. He sought spiritual repair to destroy the foundations of our farm, and we did the same, turning his barren mountain into a barren land. Li Qingyun held his wife's hand and told her to discourage.
Yang Yunu was pregnant with a child. Temper is rising. Hearing this, he nodded: "That's how it should be done! The tiger is not powerful, are we sick cats? First destroy their farm feng shui, and then find someone to beat them away!"
Zheng Xinyan got up from the ground and just heard Yang Yunu's murderous words. I secretly wiped a cold sweat in my heart. secretly scolded Xu Jingshou and Lu Chenggong. You two ordinary people, what kind of masters are you messing with. Lao Tzu didn't ask clearly beforehand, so he fell into trouble. Ask yourselves, O you.
"Ahem...... That brother and sister, I will do my best in feng shui. In fact, you are also from the rivers and lakes, and you should have heard the rumors of changing wind and water, and we can only choose formations and means based on the local environment. Your two farm locations are just connected by the leylines, so you can cast spells. If it's farther away, I can't do it. Zheng Xinyan explained nervously, for fear that they would ask for something that they couldn't do.
"Don't mention anything to me, we are ordinary people and have never been in the rivers and lakes. Besides, we didn't ask for much, just let you kill the farm next door. Yang Yunu was still angry, and said angrily.
Zheng Xinyan almost cried, my aunt, you are a master of dark energy at such a young age, the cultivation of the second realm of martial arts cultivation is proper, this kind of cultivation wants to say that he is not a Jianghu person, so how many people in this Jianghu dare to say that he is a Jianghu person?
Li Qingyun had to support his wife, and immediately said: "Mr. Zheng, you should hurry up and cast a spell, don't mess with my wife, I really discounted your arms and legs, and I can't say anything." When the time comes, I'm afraid that you will even delay the sale of the elixir. ”
Chu Yingtai smiled beside him: "It's just right to be disabled, when I do business, I hate others to rob me the most." Brother Li, you are too merciful, what rules do you talk about when you treat prisoners? I will buy the elixir you promised him. ”
Li Qingyun smiled and waved his hand, staring at Zheng Xinyan with an inquiring gaze, as if he was telling him that his choice would determine his fate.
Having said that, how dare Zheng Xinyan play tricks again, he immediately took out more than a dozen small jade pieces from the sundries bag on his waist, which were engraved with overturned textures, and there was a faint aura emanating.
"I only have so many array weapons in my treasure bag, and they are all used in this formation, so as to make it difficult for the barren mountains next door to survive. Zheng Xinyan gritted his teeth and began to fight.
Holding the jade piece in his left hand, pinching the mantra with his right hand, stepping on the Tiangang step, and chanting words in his mouth. Suddenly, the surrounding vitality began to tremble slightly, centered on his footsteps, diverging towards the surroundings, forming a strange aura, and several small whirlwinds swirled with his steps.
Li Qingyun protected his wife and took more than ten steps back. It was the first time he saw someone performing a spell, his eyes were full of curiosity, and at the same time, he let go of his six senses and carefully observed the changes in the vitality around him.
Chu Yingtai also closed his eyes slightly, using the unique means of spiritual cultivation to perceive the changes in the vitality around him.
Zheng Xinyan stomped his feet suddenly, and pointed to the barren mountain next door, and the gathered Yuan Qi had a way to vent, turning into an invisible wave of qi and attacking the barren mountain. At the same time, he shot out three pieces of jade with his other hand, nailing them into different directions under his feet. The power was so great that the jade piece instantly sank into the earth and stone, making a strange buzzing sound.
In an instant, the wave of qi had already enveloped the barren mountain next door, booming twice, like thunder, and the surrounding vitality was in chaos. Zheng Xinyan shot five more jade pieces to suppress the phenomenon of vitality riot caused by the forced change of feng shui, and the drastic spell method made him sweat all over his body, as if he had just come out of the water.
Fortunately, after forcibly suppressing the vitality of the riot. Li Qingyun felt a fresh breeze on his face, and the few spiritual energy and vitality of the barren mountains flowed back to his farm along the channel where Zheng Xinyan performed the spell. With Li Qingyun's six senses, he could feel the subtle changes in the aura, although it was not much, but it was enough to make the farm next door deserted.
Zheng Xinyan punched out two more jade pieces, submerged them under his feet, and finally accepted the spell, sat on the ground with his ass so tired, gasped for breath, and hummed: "Fortunately, this formation has been completed, and within three days, it will be difficult to find even a green leaf on the farm next door." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a trace of blood overflowed from the corner of Zheng Xinyan's mouth, he rubbed his head in pain, and wailed: "This is the backlash of forcible spelling, the stronger the spell, the more powerful the backlash." I just used a bluffing temporary formation next door, but the long-term formation used here, and if the magic weapon used is not destroyed, this formation will always be effective.
