At half past eleven o'clock in the afternoon, Yun Fei said hello to Ni Lishuang and drove to the city alone.

After going around several times, I found the Erwa Hotel that Bao Qi said in a small alley not far from Tianfu Square.

A very ordinary restaurant, which can be seen everywhere in Rongcheng. However, this ordinary restaurant that looks like it is a little old from the outside, and judging from the crowded customers, it is not as ordinary as the appearance and the name.

I reversed the car out of the alley, parked on the side of the road outside the alley, and then ran to the door of the small restaurant and looked inside.

At this time, it was a meal, and there were four small tables of eight immortals in the small store, and there was not even a single empty place.

"Isn't this thing playing me like a monkey?" There was no shadow of the four tables, and in the full hall, there was not a single waiter, and many people who had not found a place were consciously waiting in a loose formation outside, and as long as someone left, the person in front of the line would automatically fill in that position. Whether it's the people who eat inside or those who are waiting in line outside to eat, there is a strange sense of satisfaction on their faces.

The people who eat inside eat very slowly, as if they are eating some delicacies from the mountains and seas, and their faces are full of enjoyment; The people waiting outside whispered to the people in front of them, left and right. No one urged those inside who ate slowly.

Yun Fei was very curious, in this era, the people of Rongcheng would take the initiative to line up when no one maintained order, and when they talked, their voices were not loud. In the entire hall, there was only one middle-aged waitress who was in charge of ordering and serving food, and it seemed that the woman still had some problems with her legs.

There is no loud noise on the common Chinese dinner table, and there is no staggering, it seems, as if, there is no alcohol in this store!

Yun Fei thought that Bao Qi hadn't brought it yet. As a result, I saw a few middle-aged Sven men wearing suits but no ties walking towards the inside of the store without any empty space, and then passed through the wall that looked without a trace of flaws from the outside, and disappeared.

Since Bao Qi called to invite him to eat in this mysterious little shop, and did not pick him up outside the door, Yun Fei thought for three seconds and walked inside.

Walking to the wall, Yun Fei realized that the outside looked like a whole wall. It's just a porch that uses the polyline principle of light to deceive visually. Behind the entrance, there is a thick wooden staircase more than a meter wide, and people step on it, but no sound comes out.

"I thought you wouldn't come in when you saw the situation outside......" Yun Fei had just turned the entrance, and Bao Qi with a flat face appeared in front of Yun Fei.

"How did you find such a place?" The two of them greeted each other like old friends, as if Bao Qi was no longer the president of ICBC Rongcheng Branch, and Yun Fei was no longer the boss of Jiuyi Heavy Industry. The two of them are just the most ordinary old friends.

"In Rongcheng, a city full of delicious mouths, is there any place where you can't find delicious mouths?" Bao Qi took Yun Fei to the private room inside. While explaining to Yun Fei.

Rongcheng is a city of eating, drinking and merrymaking, although it has not yet reached the extent that catering accounts for a large proportion of the city's income, nor has it reached the point where you don't want to go when you come, but it is a leisurely and slow pace. Perhaps it has been the mainstream of the entire city since it was founded thousands of years ago.

At the entrance to the second floor, there sat a thin old man in his seventies with a wrinkled face, squinting and dozing. Next to the old man, there was a cane with a metallic sheen. The old man seemed to sense the presence of the two of them, and opened his cloudy eyes. Seeing Yun Fei, he was very surprised, and then continued to squint and doze off. For Bao Qi next to Yun Fei, the old man didn't even look at it.

It's all there. It's all weird.

"In ICBC, you won't get a penny of money, and it is estimated that in other banks, you can't get a loan either, not a penny." After sitting down, Bao Qi said lightly while pouring tea for Yun Fei.

"Zhilu said......" Yun Fei, whose face instantly became gloomy, thought for a while before answering Bao Qi equally lightly.

"Drink tea, not only the food here tastes good, but the tea is also good, it is estimated that in the whole of Rongcheng, there is no place that tastes better than this shop." Bao Qi picked up the teacup in his hand, which was not much bigger than his thumb, and after signaling to Yun Fei, he savored it carefully.

There was an indescribable smell in the air, not fragrant, not smelly, or just tasteless. Yun Fei picked up the teacup in front of him and took a shallow sip, only to find that although it had the color of tea, there was no taste of tea, not even the taste of boiled water.

The tasteless taste in the air, the tea is equally tasteless. The same neck, swallowed the tasteless tea that had just moistened his throat in one gulp.

Under the tea, Yun Fei's restless heart gradually became calm, as if nothing in this world had anything to do with him.

There are no worries, no sorrows, just a dull and worryless mood.

Bao Qi didn't speak, and Yun Fei didn't speak either. The two of them drank the tasteless tea one after another, but they were able to taste a lot of it, and waited for the meal to come with a calm and enjoyable face.

Yun Fei found that the private rooms on the second floor of this inconspicuous Erwa Hotel, which were separated by screens with vicissitudes of life and ancient atmosphere, were the real essence of the leisure city of Rongcheng.

After waiting for about half an hour, a pot of tea was met in the silent and indifferent two, only to see a middle-aged man about thirty years old with a towel on his shoulder, holding a tray in his hand, serving food to the two.

The meal is very simple, a plate of sour and hot shredded potatoes, a honey-glazed pork ribs, a stir-fried rape head, and a large knife back to the pot meat that best represents Sichuan cuisine, and a bowl of clear soup with two slices of cabbage in the middle and young leaves.

When Yun Fei saw these dishes, he wanted to ask Bao Qi on the other side which place he was playing, but was stopped by Bao Qi waving his hand.

Seeing Bao Qi like this, Yun Fei forcibly endured the tendency to beat him, coupled with the hunger in his stomach, he could only eat silently. As soon as a piece of meat was eaten in my mouth, I found that my tongue was so spicy that I couldn't move, and fine beads of sweat began to appear on my head in the cold winter. Seeing that Bao Qi didn't laugh at his embarrassment, Yun Fei wanted to find a cup of water to rinse his mouth, only to find that the water in the huge teapot had already been drunk by the two of them.

In desperation, I could only pick up the bowl of crystal clear cabbage soup and pour it violently, and as soon as I took a sip, I found that my mouth seemed to be full of salt. The spicy smell has not yet dissipated, and it is salty, so I can only pull the rice violently. When the taste in his mouth gradually faded, the ghost envoy stretched out his chopsticks to several other dishes. When each dish entered Yun Fei's mouth, the expression on his face began to change drastically.

There is no taste of shredded potatoes in the sour and hot potatoes, only the sour ones can no longer be sour, but they are not the taste of vinegar; Honey pork ribs also have no taste of meat, so sweet that people can't feel real, but there is no ordinary sweet to bitter taste, just very pure sweetness, sweet to people's hearts; The fried rape head is still mushy, only bitter; Although there is not the slightest shadow of chili pepper in the meat of the big knife, it is unbearably spicy......

When Yun Fei couldn't feel the taste in his mouth, he realized that the dishes on the table had bottomed out, and the big bowl of rice in front of him also didn't know when he had eaten it all. In that bowl, there was not a single rice left, as if it had been licked, and it was extremely clean.

Yun Fei put down the chopsticks in his hand and raised his head, only to find that Bao Qi was staring at him with a smile.

"Serve ......" Seeing that the two had finished speaking, and the meal was finished, Yun Fei, who was about to call the waiter to settle the bill, had just opened his mouth and was covered by Bao Qi.

"Let's go, I said, I'll invite you at noon today. If you have any questions, let's talk about it......" Bao Qi opened his wallet, put the only hundred-yuan bill in it on the table, and then pulled Yun Fei and walked outside.

The old man at the top of the stairs was still dozing, and Bao Qi walked up to the old man, bowed to the old man, and then went downstairs gently.

"Damn, is there a place like this in Rongcheng?" Bao Qi walked very fast, and only stopped to wait for Yun Fei when he walked outside the alley, and as soon as Yun Fei stepped forward, he couldn't help but burst out with a foul language.

"This shop has always existed, and ordinary people can only eat downstairs. You should be panicking, right? Ask, know everything, say everything, today I stained your light......" Sitting on Yun Fei's co-pilot seat, Bao Qi picked his teeth while picking his teeth, and said lightly, as if he was reminiscing.

"You ordered the dish at noon today, right? Sweet and sour, bitter and salty, the five flavors of life, all lived, what are you hinting at me? "A lot of questions, Yun Fei has wanted to ask for a long time, this mysterious little shop hidden under the ordinary, it's too weird.

"How's the food taste?" Bao Qi didn't answer Yun Fei's question, but asked about Yun Fei's food.

"You still ask me how ...... taste of such a meal," Yun Fei said here, and suddenly stopped. When I first started eating it, it was true that every dish didn't taste like a vegetable, and Yun Fei felt that even if it was a meal made by someone who couldn't cook, it wouldn't be worse than this.

As soon as I talked about the taste, I realized that the various flavors that had made me miserable just now had become blurry in my memory. Now, on the contrary, I am beginning to reminisce about the indescribable and inexplicable feeling of all kinds of back mixed up.

"I didn't order those dishes, they were made by the old man at the top of the stairs for you......" Bao Qi began to explain to Yun Fei some of the really attractive things in this mysterious Erwa restaurant. (To be continued......)
