Volume 2 Luoyang Xing Chapter 172 Xiangshan Temple

After that, Xuan Xuan didn't care about everyone's surprise, and went to make knife noodles again.

The production of knife-cut noodles is also particularly chic, ordinary knife-cut noodles are nothing more than rolling the noodles into a cylindrical shape, and then holding them in the left hand, and cutting the knife in the boiling water with the right hand, and the noodles can be scooped and eaten when they float on the water.

Xuanxu's cutting is extraordinary, but I saw that he cut the dough into a lump again, put it in a plate, put it on the top of his head, and then held the knife in both hands, and the two knives danced together, only to see the saucer swaying from side to side, and the two strands of noodles flew into the water, and the end was shining with silver light, dazzling.

Everyone hadn't seen what was going on, but when they heard two soft sounds, the knife and saucer were already placed on the board, and there was no dough left in the plate. Look at the shaved noodles in the water, the size is evenly proportioned, as thin as a piece of paper, and it is making a fish leap in the boiling water, which is so unpleasant!

Everyone let out another hello, and one of the people who came with Zhao Fengtang couldn't wait for a long time, but he personally went to bring the bowl of noodles and ate heartily.

The colorful noodles that were made in the end, Xuanxu took some time.

He washed and mashed the fresh vegetables of seven colors, squeezed the juice and filtered the residue, then filled the juice in seven bowls, and cut the remaining dough into seven parts, and kneaded and soaked them in the juice.

Once the juice has evenly soaked into the dough, he uses a rolling pin and a shiny ruler-long dough cutter to start making it.

Quickly rolling the dough, overlapping rapidly, cutting rapidly, but all in an instant, Rao is many eyes stared tightly, without blinking, but saw that the side of the cut edge flew into the pot in an arc, endless, like a gorgeous rainbow.

The noodles are boiled and fished into the bowl, but they are as thin as silk threads, uniform, not eye-catching, it is really a good knife skill!

The crowd unconsciously shouted out a good word again.

After the three bowls of noodles were made, everyone had not come back to their senses for a long time, and they were all surprised that there was such a practice on that side, and they really thought that they had arrived in the fairy land of the gods.

At this point, Zhao Fengtang couldn't even say a word.

There is no doubt that today's "Autumn Wind Breaking" is destined to cause a sensation in Luoyang City. Presumably, in the future, the rich families in Luoyang City, if they have free time, will definitely come to "Autumn Wind Break" to taste a bowl of noodles, which can not only satisfy their hunger, but also watch the unique performance to fill their eyes.

"Master Lu!" Zhang Yizhi hesitated and asked, "Tomorrow Xiangshan Temple Poetry Meeting, I still won't participate!" ”

"Of course I want to participate!" Lu Xiaoxian said without hesitation, "Not only do you want to participate, but you also have to come out on top!" ”

"Why is that?" Zhang Yizhi asked puzzled.

Lu Xiaoxian said confidently: "Before entering the palace, you were also a literati, although you have today's glory because of Your Majesty's grace, but you have to let those who look down on you know that you are no worse than them!" Only by taking the lead through the poetry club can those who look down on you obediently shut up! ”

Zhang Changzong's literary talent is limited, and he is not interested in participating in the poetry meeting, but Lu Xiaoxian's words have reached his heart, he nodded and said to Zhang Yizhi: "Fifth brother, what Lu Gongzi said is right, you can set aside a head and let those who like to chew their tongues take a look, our Zhang brothers also have some real skills!" ”

"It's easy to say!" Zhang Yizhi couldn't help but smile bitterly, "There are many masters who will accompany His Majesty to participate in the poetry meeting tomorrow, who is not an expert in poetry, I am not sure to take the lead!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian pointed to his nose and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of, with me, I guarantee that you can take the lead!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian's poetic talent, Zhang Yizhi knows it, and there should be no problem with Lu Xiaoxian taking the lead. However, the people who went to Xiangshan Temple were all ministers of the imperial court, and Lu Xiaoxian was just a cloth cloth, so he was not qualified to participate at all, how could this be good!

How could Lu Xiaoxian not know Zhang Yizhi's thoughts, he smiled and said: "You will definitely have a way to let me go with you, if you really can't do it, you can go and ask Shangguan Shanggong ......"

Zhang Yizhi's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on his face.

……

White Horse Temple, in Xue Huaiyi's meditation room.

"Is there anything urgent about coming to me so late?" Xue Huaiyi glanced at Lu Xiaoxian.

"I'm going to go to the poetry meeting of Xiangshan Temple tomorrow!" Lu Xiaoxian asked expressionlessly, "Aren't you going?" ”

Xue Huaiyi shook his head: "She asked people to invite me, you know, I'm not interested in this!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian nodded in understanding.

"You want to be number one?" Xue Huaiyi said lightly.

"I'm not interested in being the first or not being the first, but I have to try to make Zhang Yizhi the first!"

"Zhang Yizhi? Why? ”

"Because I still have to rely on him!" Lu Xiaoxian did not hide it, and said bluntly, "Not only this poetry meeting, but also the battle with the Qinling Tomb in Tubo in the near future, I will also go to join in the fun." ”

Speaking of this, Lu Xiaoxian smiled slightly: "Of course, I went as the housekeeper of the Zhang Mansion, not only to let the world know that the Zhang brothers are outstanding in literature, but also the people in his mansion also have a set of military skills!" ”

"I don't understand you!" Xue Huaiyi shook his head and smiled wryly, "That's it, I'll help you copy a few poems that suit the occasion!" ”

After a while, Xue Huaiyi handed over the written poem to Lu Xiaoxian.

Lu Xiaoxian took it and looked at it a few times, put it in his arms, and smiled at Xue Huaiyi: "I'll invite you to dinner another day!" ”

When sending Lu Xiaoxian out, Xue Huaiyi said again: "The matter of Tubo will not be in a few days, I will hurry up and help you copy some books on marching and fighting and books on the geography of Taozhou." Oh, by the way, there is also the history of Tibet and the content related to the customs and military system, you will definitely use it in the future! ”

Listening to Xue Huaiyi's words, Lu Xiaoxian couldn't help but be a little moved: "Thank you!" ”

"Thanks for what!" Xue Huaiyi's face once again showed a melancholy expression, "I don't want you to lose your life in Taozhou in vain!" ”

……

The Northern Wei Dynasty moved its capital to Luoyang, excavated the Longmen Grottoes, and built the Xiangshan Temple. Without the Northern Wei Dynasty, there would be no Longmen Grottoes, no Xiangshan Temple, and there would be no scene of tourists weaving now.

Xiangshan Temple is built on the mountain, and the fun of enjoying is all in two words: "up" and "down".

The high and low courtyards make people have to go up and down. The mountain gate, the bell tower, the drum tower, the Daxiong Treasure Palace, the Tianwang Palace, the Luohan Palace, etc. are scattered, and the loop is reciprocated, one step at a time. Since it is a mountain temple, the various buildings are built along with the mountain, and they are very close to each other, and it is refreshing compared to the temple with a protrusion on the flat ground. The most strange thing is that every time you walk into a courtyard, you have to climb a high platform. And around each high platform, there is a circle of bluestone railings to protect it, and there are one or two persimmon trees on it.

Xiangshan Temple is a good place, but not anyone who wants to come can come, especially today, it is even worse, because the Great Zhou Emperor Wu Zetian led the civil and military officials to Xiangshan Temple, compared with the Ming Hall of Luoyang City, it is relaxed and leisurely, and it is very suitable for drinking and composing poetry.
