Chapter 113 Tibetan Mastiff

At this time, it was already more than eight o'clock in the morning, the sun was rising, the surrounding temperature was gradually rising, and the people in the county were gradually increasing.

"Litang is known as the 'city hanging in the sky', the altitude sickness here is very obvious, you must pay attention when you wait to play, it is best not to run around, otherwise once you can't breathe, the taste is not something that ordinary people can withstand."

When approaching an early shop, Shi Lei added one more sentence.

He had lived here for more than two years before, and although he was familiar with the terrain, culture, and environment, he could still feel a little astringent in his breathing when he returned here after leaving for a while.

Although the county seat of Litang is small, the whole city is very clean, whether it is on the streets, or in the shops, everywhere is neatly dotted.

Xu Zimo led the way and led Ye Qing and the others into the breakfast shop, where Li Wei had just found a place to sit down, and Kuang Zhenzhen had already hurried to the counter to order food.

"Boss, bring me a plate of these steamed buns, are there any smaller ones, or roasted ones?"

"What's the name of this black rice dumpling?"

"Ah, boss, these can't be kimchi, right? It looks weird. ”

"By the way, do you sell milk, goat's milk, or soy milk here, and soy milk is best unsweetened?"

……

She stood happily in front of the pantry and asked nearly ten questions in one go, but it didn't take long for her to come back in a gloomy voice.

"Hey, Zhenzhen, where's our breakfast?" Li Wei even had chopsticks ready, but she didn't expect her to come back empty-handed.

Kuang Zhenzhen covered her face with her hands and said shyly: "It's so embarrassing, I didn't even understand what he said." "She was pointing fingers there for a long time, and people didn't know what she wanted.

"Poof, it's really embarrassing." Li Wei laughed unceremoniously.

"Stupid, you don't know Tibetan and you're so anxious." Shi Lei looked straight and shook his head, "Let's go, I'll take you over, what do you want to eat, I'll help you translate." ”

"Damn!" Kuang Zhenzhen raised her eyes to look at him, "It turns out that you know Tibetan, why didn't you say it earlier?" ”

Shi Lei suddenly felt powerless: "Miss, if I'm not mistaken, when I just got off the bus, the sentence 'Tashi Delek' was what I said." ”

"Uh...... Is it? She was stunned for a moment, and simply pretended to be crazy and stupid, "Dead and dead, it must be the sequelae caused by altitude sickness, otherwise how can I remember that this seems to be said by Brother Xu." ”

After speaking, he buried his head and didn't dare to look at him.

Can altitude sickness cause nervous confusion? Shi Lei only felt the corners of his eyebrows twitch fiercely: This is too!

"Then what do you say, do you still want to go over now?"

"Go, of course!" When it comes to eating, she incarnates as a female fighter for another second, "People are iron, rice is steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you'll be hungry!" Besides, when we come to Litang, we should at least help the local Tibetans and stimulate the consumption level. ”

"Want to eat a meal and stimulate local consumption?"

Cold sweat rushed in front of Li Wei's forehead: "Zhenzhen, don't you plan to take down the entire store?" ”

"Can't you?"

"Okay!" Shi Lei couldn't help but laugh and cry, "But for now, it's better to fill your Five Organs Temple first." With that, he walked back to the counter with her.

I saw him fold his hands, first greeted the boss, and then said a few words in a loud voice in Tibetan, the breakfast shop owner immediately smiled, turned around and went into the kitchen to prepare, before and after less than a minute, he brought a plate of barley flour steamed buns, a pot of hot goat's milk, and a plate of tsampa.

When eating, you need to stir it evenly with butter tea, then add cheese residue to mix, and knead it into a small ball by hand, which is simple to eat and taste good.

At first, Li Wei and the others didn't dare to move because they were dirty, but later Kuang Zhenzhen was the first person to eat crabs.

Ye Qing's tsamba and goat's milk didn't move, only took a steamed bun made of barley noodles, took a bite gently, and found that the taste was fresh, the taste was good, and it was fluffy and soft, accompanied by a faint grassy sweetness, and it smelled very unique.

Xu Zimo saw that she was eating less, thinking that she was not used to the local food style, so she walked to the counter again and asked the boss to serve a bowl of gruel and a few dishes of kimchi.

"No need, Brother Xu, it's not about these meals." Ye Qing explained: "I usually eat very little breakfast, let Zhenzhen eat these." ”

"Stop, I don't dare."

Unexpectedly, Kuang Zhenzhen didn't appreciate her face, and turned around to enlighten her: "Qing'er, see clearly, this is Brother Xu's love breakfast, how can you bear to refuse?" ”

After speaking, he pretended to be sad and made Xizi hold his heart.

Ye Qing shook her head and smiled, stood up and said, "You guys eat, I'm full, it seems to be quite lively outside, I'll go out and have a look first." After speaking, he turned around and walked out of the breakfast shop.

Shi Lei looked at her back and involuntarily curled the corners of his mouth: "Brother, how do you look at it, it looks like a beauty is fierce, it's not easy to take it......"

Xu Zimo only smiled faintly, but didn't say anything.

By the time all the people at their table finished breakfast, it was almost half past eight in the morning, at this time, the crowd on the street gradually increased, listening to Shi Lei's introduction, saying that this hour was the time for the local Tibetans to catch the market, and the place of the market was set up in ****.

As soon as they heard the word "rush to the market", several girls naturally couldn't sit still, and they couldn't even take care of their luggage, so they walked directly behind the crowd in the direction of ****.

"Qing'er, come and see, the things sold here are so beautiful!"

The **** of Litang County, which is a relatively well-preserved urban area in Ganzi Prefecture, has been a famous ancient tea horse road in history since ancient times, and now it has been expanded and has been very large-scale in terms of commercial development.

In order to attract more passing tourists, the Tibetans who rushed to the market have taken great pains, some of the stalls are arranged in bright colors, and some are shouting hard, here, all kinds of colorful Hada, well-made Tibetan knife ornaments, small right placket and large left placket fur Tibetan robes can be seen everywhere, and even some corners, there are also a lot of Tibetan medicinal materials, such as saffron, Tianshan snow lotus, cordyceps, Tibetan antelope horn, etc., Ye Qing only took a cursory look, and quickly shook his head and left.

"Okay, did you say a few ladies?" Shi Lei followed behind the girls, and was wailing bitterly at this time.

He carried no less than ten large bags and small bags in his hands, carried two bags on his arms, and even his neck was not idle, full of silk scarves, stone bead necklaces, pendants, etc., and the whole person looked from afar, like a movable human-shaped shopping cart.

No way, Xu Zimo's kid is too prescient, Li Wei and Kuang Zhenzhen haven't decided to go out shopping, he first said that he has something to leave, and he can't come back until about two o'clock in the afternoon.

Walking with beauty, and it is also a four-star moon companion, encountering such a good thing, at first Shi Lei thought it was pie in the sky.

But now, he realized that he was wrong, and he was very wrong.

Since he went out of the breakfast shop, he has been dragged by Kuang Zhenzhen and others for at least four hours, and looking at a few of them, he is still completely unsatisfied, and every time he walks past a new stall, he must happily run over to sweep it.

Oh my God, when is this day going to be the end!

"Hey, why is it so lively in front?" The group was just about to turn the corner, when suddenly there was a crowd at the end of the street.

Shi Lei vaguely seemed to hear a few familiar dog barks, thought about it, and rarely took the initiative: "Let's go over and take a look." ”

In fact, before he could speak, Li Wei had already pulled Kuang Zhenzhen to the front.

When I looked closer, I found that someone was doing business, and in a few half-human-high iron cages, there were many tall dogs, some huddled in the corners and kept silent, and some walked back and forth, watching passers-by come and go in a hurry.

"What a big dog!" Kuang Zhenzhen let out a sigh.

Shi Lei shook his head and said very calmly: "This is not a dog, this is a mastiff, a Tibetan mastiff." ”

"What, these are Tibetan mastiffs?" The first time she saw this species, she felt a sense of novelty, "It looks like a lion." ”

"It's like?" Shi Lei sneered, "At best, it can only be said that it is nothing on the surface, if you see a real mastiff, it is a lion-like existence!" ”

Li Wei tilted her neck and asked, "What is a real mastiff, are these all fake?" ”

"That's not what I mean, I say real mastiffs, referring to breeds and bloodlines, these Tibetan mastiffs just look at the color, you know that they are hybrid, and purebred mastiffs are not at the same level at all. What's more, how can a good Tibetan mastiff be so easy to find, in the pastoral areas of the northern Tibetan grassland, such as Nagqu, Shigatse and surrounding cities and counties, you may still see a lot, among which the most famous varieties are 'four-eyed', 'red lion' and 'iron-clad gold', but in Litang, you want to see one or two can only enter the eye, it can be said that there are very few. ”

"What? Are there different breeds of real mastiffs? ”

Shi Lei smiled: "Of course, among the pure mastiffs, the mastiff king's bloodline is the most noble, but the mastiff king is generally elusive, and extremely spiritual, often living on the edge of the snow-capped mountains or deep in the grassland, I have lived in Tibet for ten years, and I have seen it once in total, and I only saw it from afar." ”

"I know this, I know, it seems that the 'Black Kirin' described in "Tibetan Code" is the legendary Mastiff King."

"Black Kirin?" Shi Lei shrugged his shoulders, "This name is very majestic, but if it's true or not, I don't know, if you're interested, when you get to Lhasa, I can take you to a nearby herdsman's house to see what a purebred mastiff looks like, but be bold, when the time comes, you will be scared and cry, don't turn back to me." ”

"Scared nose, huh?" Kuang Zhenzhen's eyes narrowed, revealing a "dangerous" aura, "By the way, Weiwei, we walked to this street just now, and there seem to be many stalls on the right that we haven't seen, why don't we go back and go around?" ”

"Okay, okay, I just want to buy one more turquoise, and when I get to Lhasa, I can give it to Qingqing as a gift."

Shi Lei's face suddenly stiffened with a smile: "No, aunts and grandmothers, I was wrong, can't I admit that I was wrong?" Let's not go shopping, just pity my ...... with small arms and thin legs" (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to () subscribe, reward, your support is my biggest motivation. )
