Volume 1: Luoyang in the Troubled Times Chapter 21 Hunting with Cao Cao (Finale)

When the drama was finished, Cao Cao's heart was quite weird.

Li Zhi can understand His Majesty's mind through a few words outside.

And he can also influence His Majesty through things outside the palace, in other words, does this mean that he is manipulating the king to some extent?

Thinking of this, Cao Cao looked at Li Zhi with a strange look in his eyes.

"Hit...... Hit...... Brother is good at archery! ”

At this moment, Guo Jia shouted in a fuss, and without greeting everyone, he ran to the grass on the side.

Cao Cao and the others turned their heads to look over and asked Li Zhi

"Do you know why Feng Xiao shouts?"

Li Zhi shook his head, did not speak, and looked at the bow in his hand with a somewhat complicated look.

Just now when they were talking, Li Zhi found a pheasant in the distance, so he casually drew his bow and shot it over.

Unexpectedly, after the pheasant flew up in fright, he didn't wait to fly far, and suddenly fell into the grass, thinking that he had to shoot.

Li Zhi's heart was very weird.

"Am I unintentionally planting willows in the willows? I was going to go home empty-handed. ”

"Hahaha......"

At this moment, Guo Jia carried a pheasant, rolled back and forth with laughter, and walked crookedly towards them.

Xi Zhicai asked Guo Jiadao with some curiosity

"Why is Brother Xian so happy?"

Guo Jia was still laughing, speechless, just handed the pheasant to Xi Zhicai.

Xi Zhicai was strange for a while, holding this dead pheasant, and he didn't find anything ridiculous when he turned it over, so he looked at Guo Jia with strange eyes.

At this time, Xun Yu seemed to have found something, took a look at the pheasant, and laughed.

Cao Cao handed him a puzzled look, and Xun Yu showed Cao Cao the fatal wound of the pheasant, and Cao Cao laughed after reading it.

But it turned out that the pheasant was not shot by Li Zhi, but was frightened by Li Zhi's bow and arrow, and hit the stone on the side in a panic and died.

Li Zhi also discovered the cause of the pheasant's death at this time, and threw the bow and arrow in his hand with tears and laughter, put his hands behind his back, looked at the sky with his eyes, and was speechless.

I thought to myself, "I've heard of waiting for the rabbit, what am I?" Shooting arrows and waiting for chickens? ”

Thinking of this, Li Zhiye shook his head and sneered.

"Brother's arrow method is really the best in the world, you can hunt prey without seeing blood, and it is a strange story!"

Speaking of this, Guo Jia burst into laughter again.

Li Zhi looked at Guo Jia who was laughing wildly expressionlessly.

I thought to myself, "You bear boy wait for me, tomorrow when you run, you must have three more laps, and then you will not be able to make fun of your brother." ”

Guo Jia was covered in hair when he was taken to see it, and gradually his laughter stopped and turned into embarrassing laughter.

"Hehehe... Why does my brother think so much about Jia? But what's the matter? ”

Li Zhi looked at him expressionlessly and nodded: "It's okay, it's good, the virtuous brother is very good." ”

As he spoke, he ignored him.

Hearing him say this, Guo Jia was even more uncomfortable. Through these days, he also knew Li Zhi's temper.

Li Zhi said that nothing would be a big deal, and he was afraid that he would suffer tomorrow, Guo Jia figured out the front and back with a turn of his mind.

Afraid of being punished in the future, Guo Jia immediately begged Li Zhi for mercy

"Brother, brother, it's wrong! Jia shouldn't laugh at his brother for his shortcomings. ”

"Know it's wrong?"

Li Zhi asked.

"Know, know wrong!"

"Then you are willing to be punished?"

"This ......"

"Uh-huh......?!"

"Brother, although the punishment is"

"Go and fetch a bundle of firewood in the woods, I'll be useful"

"Ah......?"

"Don't go yet!!"

"Oooh......"

While they were hunting and talking, the sun was gradually rising in the middle.

Li Zhi was also a little hungry and thirsty in his stomach.

Asking Guo Jia to fetch a bundle of firewood is to have a picnic in this wilderness.

Li Zhi hasn't had a picnic for a long time, and now he thinks about it.

It's better to meet by chance, it just so happened that he was hunting today, and he also caught a lot of prey, so he wanted to try.

So he said to Cao Cao and the others

"Have you ever been hungry or thirsty?

After a while, Feng Xiao brought firewood, how about making a good meal for you? ”

"Oh?"

Cao Cao looked at Li Zhi with a surprised face and asked curiously

"Do you still know the way of Bao Cooking?"

"A little dabbling"

At this time, Xun Yu spoke.

"Don't you know, gentleman is far away from the words of the cook?"

Hearing Xun Yu say this, Li Zhi rolled his eyes and asked him

"If you know who the gentleman Mencius was talking about when he said this?"

Xun Ruoyan frowned when he heard this, and replied

"Naturally, I know that this is what Mencius said to King Qi Xuan, and the gentleman he said is King Qi Xuan."

Li Zhi smiled and said, "That's right, the gentleman Mencius said at that time was the son of the king, and now he is the prince." ”

"This is a reminder to the king to govern the people with benevolence, not to be a foul cook."

After speaking, he ignored him, but Xun Yu was a little thoughtful after hearing his words.

"Good, the virtuous brother of the deeds is very good!"

Cao Cao heard Li Zhi explain Mencius's words, stroked his palms and laughed

"Okay, I won't wait with you anymore, I know I'm going to cook"

Cao Cao and the others saw that he was going to cook seriously, obviously he really knew how to cook, and they were also curious about Li Zhi's cooking skills.

Then Cao Cao spoke: "In this way, we will wait for the magic technique of easy teeth."

Wait for Guo Jia to carry back a bundle of dry firewood with a hum.

He asked Guo Jia to go and make the fire first, and then asked the servants who followed them to bring some butter and condiments that he had brought with him when he came.

Li Zhi first went to the creek and washed and skinned the deer that Cao Cao had hunted.

After washing and peeling, separate the deer steak from the meat.

The venison was threaded with a fresh twig, and a knife was used to make a few cuts on the venison to absorb the flavor.

Spread some condiments on the venison and finish with some butter.

As for the deer steak, first let the servants set up the pot, boil the water, and blanch it with hot water for later use.

This deer is their staple food for noon today.

As for the two chickens, Li Zhi thought about it for a while, then cleaned up one of them like venison, and then planned to grill it like venison on the fresh branch he was wearing.

The other one he wanted to eat...... It's called Flower Chicken.

So he didn't even take the chicken feathers, but after disemboweling the chicken, he took out the internal organs and stuffed some spices and salt.

Finally, after sealing it, wrap the chicken vigorously with some mud and wrap it into a ball.

Then he dug a hole in the place where Guo Jia made the fire, put the chickens in it, and finally buried the earth, and then moved the fire over.

The others were curious to see him do this.

"It's... How to eat? ”

The four of them thought so in their hearts.

However, they don't know how to cook, so they don't know if it's right to cook this way, so it's inconvenient to talk more.

Since there was no barbecue, he made a simple grill out of two three-pronged branches.

The roast meat that had been coated with condiments was placed on top and the servant was instructed to reverse it repeatedly and apply oil from time to time.

He made another fire, put some oil on the shelf, waited for the oil to boil, cut some green onions and ginger, put the condiments in it and stir-fried them, and when the condiments were fragrant, he put the blanched venison in and stir-fried.

After a while, after Li Zhi fried the venison out of the pot, the barbecue was baked, and it should be about the same time to call the flower chicken, so he also planed it out.

"Wait and get the wine from the car,"

Li Zhi saw that the meal was almost done, so he asked the servant to fetch the wine, and beckoned everyone over.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the meal is ready to eat."

Cao Cao and the others, who were watching the scenery from a distance, saw that the meal was ready, so they walked over together.

"Done? We are all looking forward to the food of the virtuous brothers. ”

"Guaranteed to your satisfaction"

Li Zhi is full of confidence.

After all, he used to be very fond of food, and he also learned from others, although he is not a chef, but for people in this era, he makes a little bit casually, that is, delicious.

After all, people in this era don't have the word for stir-frying at all.

Li Zhi took off the barbecue little by little, divided the barbecue with a knife, and took out the chicken called Hua and distributed it to everyone, said please, and enjoyed it by himself.

Seeing that he ate sweetly, several people couldn't bear it, so they also enjoyed it.

"Good!"

At this time, Cao Cao was eating delicious food and praised loudly.

"What a delicacy! The virtuous brother has a magic trick of easy teeth! ”

"Goodness"

"Great Goodness"

The rest of the people also praised the kindness one after another, and ate with their mouths full of oil.
