Chapter 56 Eastern Zhou Cuisine

The traversal capsule opened again, and there were dense vines and thorns outside, dense and impermeable, dark, 2500 years ago, the top of Cuiwei Mountain was still a dense primeval forest, and they fell into the depths of the dense forest, which was expected.

Liu Yanzhi took out the laser cutter and removed all the plants blocking the hatch, and it was really another world outside, with towering giant trees, deep humus, and sultry and humid air, as if he was in a subtropical jungle, and Cuiwei Mountain was actually in a temperate zone.

The team members include Liu Yanzhi, Ji Yuqian, Guan Lu, and two accompanying escorts Liu Handong and Lei Meng.

The six of them went out of the cabin one after another, their feet stepped on the humus, and it felt difficult to pull their feet, and all kinds of shrubs and vines in the jungle grew unscrupulously, and there was no way out in all directions.

"In the 79 years of fighting Vietnam, the interspersed detachment of our army took such a road, no wonder they had to be able to rush to the destination according to the predetermined plan, and the staff officers of the regiment headquarters only knew how to measure the map with a ruler, and they didn't know what the jungle looked like at all." Lei Meng sighed.

Cuiwei Mountain in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was inaccessible, completely undeveloped, and the road down the mountain was difficult to walk, but fortunately, Lei Meng took out a diesel-driven chainsaw to open the way in front, he simply used the chainsaw to cut out a channel, green plant juice splashed everywhere, the small animals were startled by the roar of the chainsaw and fled in all directions, and the birds that could not be named rushed to the sky.

In the previous crossing, this is the most difficult to go down the mountain, as the saying goes, a good start is half the success, the descent is so difficult, the journey to find Lao Tzu must not be too smooth.

In fact, he remembered that it was not so easy to fly, he could only climb up along the big tree, and met a curious monkey and a nest of chicks on the way, he stood on the top of a giant tree surrounded by four people and looked in all directions, the Huaijiang River at this time was much wider than the Huaijiang River in memory, but the route was different, in 2,500 years, the river was diverted many times before forming the final form.

Looking far away, there is a town on the edge of the Huai River, the Zhou Dynasty is still in a slave society, the population density and economic development are far less than the Song and Ming dynasties they have visited, but the habit of human civilization to choose to live on the shore of the river has never changed, the town in the distance is the most primitive version of the high-rise Omi metropolis a few years later.

Liu Yanzhi was looking for a path down the mountain with relatively sparse plants, and suddenly he felt a pair of eyes looking at him nearby, but when he looked closely, he found nothing, maybe it was nervousness, he determined the route, came down and re-chose the direction of travel, and it took a lot of effort to cross the group, and finally came to the foot of the mountain.

The bottom of the mountain is still in a primitive state, woods, meadows, swamps, but there are no crops, elk and hares can be seen faintly, and there are white cranes flying in the clouds and mist in the sky, just like a fairyland on earth.

There is no village within a radius of ten miles, and the only way to rest is to go to the town that Liu Yanzhi found, the long road can only rely on two legs to trek, and the six rights are hiking, and they don't feel tired, and they encounter many wild animals on the way, and even a lonely South China tiger, seeing that they are crowded, they are far away.

When it was dark, they finally came to Omi's predecessor, an unknown town, surrounded by the legendary well field system, and the fields were not planted with familiar rice and wheat seedlings, nor corn and sorghum, but a crop that had long been eliminated, millet.

It is said to be a town because it is larger than the village, there is a bazaar, all the houses are adobe, the roofs are covered with thatch, the shape is simple, the road is not paved with stone slabs, but there are drainage ditches dug by the roadside, the citizens find that outsiders are coming, they have stood outside the house and look at them curiously, in the same way, the travelers are also looking at the ancestors of ancient times.

The citizens were dressed in clothes made of arrowroot, and there were many barefoot and shirtless, their eyes were clear, and they were generally relatively short in height, and Lei Meng was simply a god-like existence in front of them. Seeing the richly dressed outsiders, the citizens looked admiring and recommended an elderly man to negotiate with them.

The problem is that the language of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty is completely different from the Chinese of the 21st century, and the two sides cannot communicate normally at all, even if the party is a person who has studied ancient Chinese, it is also a chicken and a duck to speak, and he can't find the doorway, but fortunately, he can write, the writing of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty has been relatively mature, but like Europe, the writing of each vassal state is different, the Omi region should belong to the Cai State, the party patriotic has studied the relevant oracle bone inscriptions, and wrote a big seal on the sand with a branch, and the elders saw it and arranged for them to drink, eat and stay.

"How did you fool people?" Liu Yanzhi asked.

"I said that we are envoys from the state of Chu, going to Luoyi to meet the king of Zhou." The party patriotically said, "White lies, for fear of scaring people, in this era, people's information is extremely closed, and there are not many people who like to lie, so what I say is true." ”

Six people entered the town, followed by a group of onlookers, and a number of dogs scurrying around excitedly, the elders invited them into the largest courtyard in the town, set up a table, sit on the ground, this year want to sit on the chair is impossible, the Han Dynasty used to kneel and sit, let alone the Zhou Dynasty.

It didn't take much effort, the food came up, the utensils were all terracotta pots, the wine glasses were also fired from clay, but there was a layer of enamel covering, more exquisite than ordinary pottery, no one had a pair of cutlery in front of them, a bamboo chopstick was more than a foot long, the spoon was wooden, and a pair of wooden forks made of animal bones were ground.

Looking at the dishes in the clay pot, each one is very suspicious, and it is impossible to see what the ingredients are, only a pot of raw cut fish fillets that have not been cooked can be seen.

The elders warmly invited them to get off the chopsticks, and the surrounding people were also enthusiastically waiting to see the reaction of the guests after eating the delicious food.

Everyone looked at each other inquiringly, and Liu Yanzhi nodded solemnly: "Not bad." ”

In addition to Guan Lu, the others also picked up the chopsticks and dipped them in the taste, the taste was very strange, sour and bitter, but it was not as unbearable as the Swedish canned herring, the party patriotic smiled, drew a few words in the sand table, praised the deliciousness, and the masses also showed a knowing smile when they saw the guests eating happily.

"It's a meat sauce made by ants." Dang Aiguo said, "The ancients had a very rich source of food, and the Zhou people especially liked to eat sauce. ”

In addition to the ant sauce, these bizarre dishes include fish roe sauce, shrimp sauce, dog meat sauce, the main food is millet soup, seasoned with coarse salt and plum juice, and of course, alcohol.

The elders repeatedly raised their glasses to drink, and the traversers were thin-skinned, so they could only hold clay cups and drink rancid rice soup cup by cup

When the wine was hot, the elder finally mentioned the matter, he took the branch to write and draw on the sand table, and with the help of babbling language, the party finally understood: "They said that there was an evil dragon in the river and wanted to ask us to surrender." ”

"It's not cost-effective to want us to work hard for one meal." Lei Meng said, "What if it's a raptor like Xiao Zhou again." ”

The party patriotism thinks about this reason, they are here to find Lao Tzu, not to fight monsters and upgrade, but looking at the elder's hopeful eyes, he can't bear to refuse, after all, the mouth of the eater is soft, so he asked the elder to draw the evil dragon.

The elder called out a young man from the crowd and gave a few orders, and the young man picked up a branch and put a few strokes on the sand table, and everyone looked at it and couldn't help but look at each other.

It was clearly a long-necked dragon living in the White Age.
