The food culture of Nanxiang Town is very close to Liangdu, although there are still some regional differences, but the style is the same. Compared with the south of the Yangtze River, Liangdu's catering is very rich in the variety of ingredients, no longer stubborn to the river fresh that people use most often by the river, there are all ingredients here, and the chefs here will cook any ingredients, chicken, duck and fish, cattle, sheep, pigs and geese, only unexpected, not invisible.

It is said that Liangdu City is near the sea, the deep-sea fishing industry of Liangdu is quite developed, Nanxiang Town is the last stop of the river into the sea, although the sea can not be seen here, but because it is very close to the sea, the restaurant here also cooks the fish and shrimp caught from the deep sea, the fish is ten million times more fresh and delicious than those riverside restaurants in Fengzhou, the river fresh and seafood are compared, in the end it is still much worse in terms of freshness, Su Yan and others eat a mouth full of oil, full of praise.

Su Miao likes to eat the steamed lobster of Longcuilou the most, the method is simple, the heat is just right, the meat is fresh and tender, the taste is delicious, with the sauce made of rice wine, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce and several secret spices, it tastes very delicious, full of fragrance.

Having a hearty meal in the Longcui Building, I finally comforted the Five Organs Temple, which had dried up on the ship for more than two months, and at the same time swept away the fatigue of the journey. After eating and drinking, the group came out of the restaurant happily, just walked out of the restaurant, only to see three small houses as gorgeous and noble Nanmu carriage is steadily parked in front of the door of Longcui Building, Baoying oil wall, luxurious and elegant, so that the people from the small place of Fengzhou City are all stunned.

A tall, long-eyed young man with a long sword at his waist stepped forward. knelt down respectfully, and said aloud to the aftertaste:

"The slave greets the third master, and welcomes the third master back home!"

Along with the young man, there were also a dozen or so guards like him who knelt down and silently asked for peace. This kind of pomp and circumstance surprised outsiders, but the locals were not surprised, and there were no onlookers who stopped from afar to see such a scene. Su Miao was slightly surprised at first, and then understood that Liangdu and the surrounding area of Liangdu are the places where most of the dignitaries and nobles in Yue Liang Kingdom haunt, not to mention that it is not normal for dignitaries and nobles not to bring a few guards when they go out, and it is not safe for them to go out without a dozen bodyguards. It's a relief when you think about it. She is very calm, and she doesn't know that she is the biological son of the lord of Jiayang and Prince Rui, the son of the prince and the nephew of the emperor. There are few guards who are abnormal.

Su Xian and the others didn't think so, although they already knew the identity of Huiwei, but at that time, Huiwei lived alone in the Su family, and it was completely the feeling of a son-in-law. He himself does not have a shelf. and let them be bullied by these sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law, so in their hearts, even if they already know that the aftertaste is the son of the prince, they are not deeply touched. However, now that I arrived in Liangdu, I couldn't help but see such a pomp, and it was not until this moment that I deeply felt that this was indeed the son of the prince, and it was indeed the product of the highest class of the relatives of Emperor Yue Liang, and everyone was a little uncomfortable in their hearts. There is an indescribable sense of awkwardness, not fear. In my heart, I feel a little more strange and a little more alienated.

Aftertaste quietly reflected everyone's reactions one by one, and kept Su Miao's reaction in mind, Du Su Miao had no unusual reaction, she still had a heartless expression as usual, and was looking Qiuhua up and down curiously at the moment, and he felt a little at ease.

Su Miao looked at Qiuhua curiously, this person was probably the guard of the aftertaste or something, and he was very excited when he saw the aftertaste come back, although there was no expression on his face, but his eyes were turbulent, and the aftertaste only nodded lightly in the face of Qiuhua's excitement, and said "Get up", and then said to Su Miao that the carriage at home was coming to pick it up, and let them prepare to get on the bus, it takes five days to travel from Nanxiang Town to Liang, which is also quite far.

Su Miaoying, this time there were three carriages, the seats were very spacious and there was no need to squeeze together, so it was natural for men to sit on one and women to sit on one, this is the rule of Liangdu, Liangdu is much stricter than Fengzhou in the boundary between men and women, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will be gossiped, Lin Yan told her so, it can be seen that Liangdu people should be quite idle, because they are too idle, so they like to gossip.

Cheng Tie and they didn't know the true identity of the aftertaste until now, and the pomp in front of them surprised them very much, and they deeply wondered that the pomp and circumstance of the big families in Liangdu was really different, compared with the rich people in Liangdu, the rich people in Fengzhou were simply buns.

Su Miao naturally took a carriage with Huiwei, they didn't have to avoid suspicion, Su Xian and Lin Yan were more interested, and let the two of them sit in one, of course, there were also those who were not interested, when Su Miao boarded the carriage with the support of Huiwei, Su Chan took a step ahead and followed him to get into the car without saying a word.

Aftertaste was speechless, and the corners of his eyebrows twitched fiercely.

The five-day journey was in the mountains, and it wasn't until after entering the mountain that Su Miao knew that it was necessary to pass through Baiyang Mountain from Nanxiang Town to Liang, and the journey across the mountains was exactly five days. According to the aftertaste, five days later, you will see the Huixiang Building, and the Huixiang Building is the gate of the Liang Capital City one mile ahead.

For five days, the three carriages have been walking in the majestic Baiyang Mountain, which is lush and wooded, but fortunately, it is in the boundary of Liangdu, although Baiyang Mountain is primitive and steep, but it has been opened out of a flat and neat official road, and the road is quite smooth. Although there is no inn for people to rest on the road, there are many tea sheds opened by mountain people, because this is the main road from Nanxiang Town to Liangdu, and there are many pedestrians and vehicles on the road, especially the cars and horses doing business, which makes the mountain road that should be lonely and cold seem extraordinarily lively.

The three carriages drove longitudinally, and drove the road for four days in a row, and finally rested on the night of the fourth day, because of the sudden heavy rain at dusk that day, the heavy rain blocked the road down the mountain, and it was very dangerous to walk the mountain road in the rain.

"It's raining, and the road is blocked by rocks in front of us, and it's too unsafe to go any further, so let's delay it for a day. In front is the Big Buddha Temple, let's go over to spend the night, and wait for the rain to stop before hurrying. Aftertaste said to Su Miao.

Su Miao was not in a hurry. After hearing him say it, he agreed, and when I heard him mention the "Big Buddha Temple", I was slightly stunned and asked:

"Big Buddha Temple? But the big Buddha temple that you are talking about is made of fasting dishes in the whole country? ”

"That's right, that's it, the previous Master Huihai came from the Big Buddha Temple, although it was later vulgar. The Big Buddha Temple is a hexagram signature. The second is that the food is famous, you can go and taste it, and ask for a hexagram by the way. Aftertaste said with a smile.

Su Miao raised her eyebrows. She has no interest in hexagrams, but she can try it.

The Big Buddha Temple is on the summit of Qingluan Terrace, and the design of the temple is very interesting. There are one hundred and eight steep steps in front for good men and women to walk. At the back of the temple, there is a flat ramp lane leading to the back door of the temple. The aftertaste is obviously not a good man and a woman, he directly let the carriage drive to the back door of the temple, at this time the sky has darkened, the heavy rain is still falling, the mountains and forests are dark with a treacherous atmosphere, only the Changming lamp of the Big Buddha Temple flashes in the darkness of the five fingers of the hand, and the light is strange, so that people's hearts can get peaceful comfort in the darkness, and the anxiety is dispelled. Become serene and down-to-earth.

Qiuhua got off the bus and notified the monk in the temple, and it was very fast. The back door of the temple was wide open, and three horse-drawn carriages broke through the rain curtain and entered the temple, making a few turns in the incense-filled temple to the guest hall area of the Big Buddha Temple.

The abbot of the Big Buddha Temple had already received the news and was holding an umbrella to greet him outside the door of the guest hall at this moment. The abbot of the Big Buddha Temple, whose Dharma name is empty, looks at the age of more than 70 years old, even the eyebrows are white, the old monk is very thin, but he is in good spirits and very healthy. Dressed in a spotless robe, the abbot stood quietly in the rain, smiling kindly, and his brows were full of unfathomable dust, and the worldly masters usually gave people a sense of otherworldliness and disconnectedness.

Aftertaste had already gotten off the carriage and gave Su Miao a hand.

The abbot clasped his hands together and smiled kindly: "Amitabha, I haven't come back to the benefactor for many years. ”

Aftertaste returned the salute, and replied lightly: "Hui has been in Fengzhou, this trip is from Fengzhou back to Liangdu, I don't want to suddenly rain halfway, the mountain road in front is blocked, I take the liberty to come to avoid the rain, and I hope the master will not blame." ”

"The return to the donor is polite, the room used by the return donor has been kept, please return to the donor."

"Thank you, Master." Aftertaste politely bowed, and then followed the monk who received the guests forward.

There is an area separated by a peach forest in the guest hall area is a guest hall for the use of dignitaries and nobles in Liangdu, because the Buddhist gate is pure and pays attention to the equality of all beings, the Great Buddha Temple is very clever in the distinction of hierarchy, the guest rooms here do not have a separate courtyard, but are surrounded by a high flower fence, although the wall is not used, the flower hedge plays the role of a wall, which not only separates the hidden private space, but also does not conflict with the concept of "equality of all beings", it can be said that this design has taken a lot of thought.

Su Miao and the others followed Huiwei into a hidden area separated by a flower barrier, with three guest rooms in front of him, and two wing rooms in the east and west, after all, this time it was the light of the aftertaste, so Huiwei lived alone in his previous room, and the others were two people in a room.

Su Miao and Su Chan lived next door to the aftertaste, and simply packed their luggage, it was time to sleep, it was still raining heavily, and this time there was also a sullen thunder rolling in the sky, and the aftertaste was not at ease Su Miao, so he came over to take a look, and Su Miao asked him:

"Didn't you say that the food is famous, can you eat it now?"

Aftertaste smiled, and replied: "The food of the Big Buddha Temple is supplied in limited quantities on the fifth, fifteenth, and twenty-fifth days of each month, and you are lucky, tomorrow is the fifteenth, and you can taste it for one more day tomorrow." I just asked someone to cook some somen noodles at the temple, and the noodles here are delicious. ”

Su Miao was very disappointed when she heard that she couldn't eat the most famous food in the Big Buddha Temple today, and when she heard him say that the noodles were also delicious, she immediately became happy again, smiled brightly, paused, and asked:

"Since it's available in limited quantities, it's not something you can eat early in the morning, right?"

"It starts at noon, and it is limited to one hour, and after one hour, it will be ten days later. Tomorrow's Big Buddha Temple will be very crowded, so be prepared. Aftertaste said with a smile.

"What's delicious, it's just a gimmick, the temple is also doing business to put it bluntly, this kind of trick is just a means for the temple to do business, someone is really fooled, and the people in Liangdu are too idle!" Su Chanbian flattened her mouth and said disapprovingly, she was lying on the bed reading the picture book, Ge cloth clothes and pants, crossed her feet, in the aftertaste, it seemed very unruly, but he couldn't say anything, so he could only be helpless in his heart, when will his little sister-in-law get married, if he can't marry for the rest of his life, he will definitely not have a good life in his life.

"The dishes of the Great Buddha Temple have been spread to Toyoshu, and such a popularity must be delicious!" Su Miao bought it very much and said to her seriously.

Su Chan snorted from her nose.

Su Miao was very happy that she had been hungry for a day, so she pulled over the stool and sat under the window to eat the noodles.

This is a magical bowl of noodles boiled in water from the Baiyang Spring at the back of the temple, and the noodles are made of wheat core flour. The key to the somen is mainly in the boiling of the soup, the noodles are in the taste, the taste is in the soup, the soup is prominent, the somen of the Big Buddha Temple is naturally not contaminated with meat, the "fishy" of Buddhism refers to the living things, and the "meat" refers to the food with a strong smell, such as onions, ginger, garlic, leeks, etc., in Buddhism, the fishy is the meat dish, and the meat refers to the taste.

Because to quit meat, the somen of the Big Buddha Temple naturally can not use meat or strong flavor ingredients, so the noodle soup here has become a very distinctive feature, the somen soup base of the Big Buddha Temple is made of wolfberry, jujube, angelica, red ginseng with mushrooms, green vegetables and other ingredients after ten hours of blending and boiling boiled by the civil and military fire, when the taste of the auxiliary materials is completely released in the soup, the deep and strong mellow form the unique taste of the Big Buddha Temple, and then with the soy sauce and sesame sauce produced by the Big Buddha Temple, the true color is light, skillful and convenient, fresh and fragrant, Memorable.

With a bowl of hot noodle soup, Su Miao forgot the anxiety and annoyance brought by the continuous rain, and it was an indescribable comfort from the taste buds to the spleen and stomach.

"Delicious!" She sighed unsatisfactorily, and her eyes smiled like crescent moons.

"This temple is quite good at cooking noodles." Su Chan rarely praised it, which shows that the somen noodles here are indeed delicious.

"Do you want to eat it again, let them cook another bowl?" Aftertaste asked with a smile.

Su Chan shook her head, said "I'm full", put down the dishes and chopsticks, got up and went back to lie behind the screen.

Su Miao and Huiwei sat in the outhouse and continued to eat noodles, Su Miao tilted her head and thought for a while, and asked the question she had been more concerned about in the past two days:

"Is your father and mother also back to Liangdu, do you want to go to see your father and mother before we go to Zhuangzi?" (To be continued.) )
