Pingwa rushed over with a smile after a while, "Master, Master Xi'er wants you to come over!" ”

Li Zhi put his arm around his shoulders and immediately went, and several ladies were sitting among the women, and the movement there was no less than that of the row where Fu Chen was.

Pang Ti stood barefoot on the stool, screaming continuously.

Seeing Li Zhi's arrival, she stuck out her tongue, danced with both hands and smiled:

"Brother Zhengwen, you have to prepare some for us with those little cloth bags, the ladies don't have any silver with them, and Mrs. Helier is almost about to throw the hairpin out of her head!"

Li Zhile said: "You have silver on you!" ”

Pang Xi patted the purse-shaped Qiankun bag hanging on his waist, "There is really no silver, but there is a lot of gold!" ”

Qingqi said on the side, "We have all the money on hand, I did have some before, and I spent it all a few days ago, thousands of taels!" ”

Some time ago, Qingqi was responsible for purchasing trinkets, and it should have been the silver in the bags of several sisters.

Moreover, the expenses of the female guests were also paid by her, and Li Zhi forgot to fill them up.

He smiled and said, "Let's go, I'er, come with me to buy and change cloth bags." Before leaving, I didn't forget to throw some loose silver taels on the table.

Pang Qi was still barefoot, but she was too lazy to wear it, and opened her hand to ask Li Zhi to carry her over.

Li Zhi turned around happily, carried Pang Xi behind him, and found his old club again in the sound of driving and driving.

When the two turned back, the man who played the steel fork had already picked up the reward on the ground and walked down, replaced by two Tianzhu flute dancers.

In front of each of them were two feet wide in a basket of cobras, in which a king cobra danced.

The venomous king cobra dances to the tune of the wooden flute, a traditional performance in which the hijab dancers are adorned with distinctive amber earrings and bead chains, a sign of the antiquity and nobility of their status.

Since ancient times, the Tianzhu people have always been in awe of the snake dancers, who are revered as "yogis" or saints in Hindu mythology.

Tianzhu Sect is to worship the snake god, the main god Shiva has a snake god who accompanies and protects him, and the snake dancer wraps his head with bright red cloth, which is also a classic image.

The wooden flute of the snake dancer is also very particular, and there is actually a watch inlaid on it, which is processed and synthesized by himself at first glance.

At this time, the two old men were teasing the cobra, showing a painful expression as if they had been bitten by a snake, and the cobra was because they could see the pattern of glasses on their backs, and the round pattern of glasses was a sign of poison.

Unlike previous performances, the audience at this moment held their breath and occasionally let out exclamatory sounds.

Even the cultivators present did not dare to touch it directly with their hands in the face of this highly venomous snake, while the snake dancer directly stuffed the entire palm into the snake's mouth, which naturally attracted bursts of exclamations.

You must know that the cobra at the scene did not have its fangs extracted, and it will quickly kill if bitten.

Its most classic feature is that it spreads from head to neck when it feels threatened or ready to attack, and at this moment the palm of the snake dancer is facing this state.

Mrs. Hassan, presumably having seen such performances before, whispered:

"The venomous snake of the average street performer has no fangs in its mouth, I don't know that

How did the two of them do it, you see, he pulled out his hand to show the mark on the back of his hand that had been bitten by the fangs! ”

Qingqi and the other women all covered their mouths with their hands, as if they were afraid that their screams would cause the poisonous snake to overreact.

Li Zhi was smiling secretly in his heart, his divine sense could be probed, and it was true that the cobra's fangs still existed, but it was obviously paralyzed by some kind of drug.

Just like a cultivator's ban, the venom has been covered by a layer that makes the cobra still have the ability to bite, but not enough to harm the skin.

Playing the wooden flute and dancing the snake is a traditional folk skill in Tianzhu, which is extremely popular, and because it often performs on the big stage, it earns a lot of money, and it has also become a wealthy class there.

In Tianzhu, only wandering artists who rely on singing and dancing belong to the people living at the bottom of the society, but the flute and snake dance are highly respected and have always been among the high-consumption class.

At this moment, the snake dancers are already blowing the wooden flute, so that the cobras and poisonous snakes in their baskets can move and dance to the music.

Mrs. Hassan was still explaining in a whisper:

"In fact, cobras can't hear sounds within the range of human hearing, that is, they can't actually hear the instrument played by the snake dancer, and they make a corresponding swing posture by sensing the shaking of the instrument, and this rhythmic dance is a visual trick!"

"Oh my God, isn't that a lie!" Pang Qi was surprised.

Hassan laughed:

"It can't be said that Tianzhu is as magical as the popular magic show in Europe, but once the reason is exposed, it often makes people cry out, but no one thinks they are deceiving! It's the same with the flute and snake dance, it's just a trick, even if you know it's fake, watch it live, and feel the same excitement! ”

Afifa nodded and agreed: "There are dangers in it, and it takes skill to domesticate them, and it is also an ancient inheritance!" ”

Li Zhi already understood the strangeness of it, so he didn't have much interest in watching it, but he still showed a curious look on his face.

Because he knew that what Mrs. Hassan was talking about was already a secret of the industry, and it was not appropriate to tell the secret that others had used to survive.

Therefore, Li Zhi knew how to understand others very well, and threw away a few pieces of silver in his hand.

These people, who have lived by snake dances for generations, are undoubtedly the ones who know the nature of snakes best, not only about their poison, but also about their hearing.

Only in this way did they dare to live by teasing those poisons in public.

They used the ancient spell-like wooden flute to lure the poisonous snake in the basket to dance to the music, and also attracted people from the streets and alleys to gather around and witness the dangerous game of the man and snake teasing each other.

So who knows what these snake dancers think of these special actors in their baskets?

According to Li Zhi's guess, his mood must be complex and multifaceted:

Out of professional traditions, forced by their own livelihoods, and because of their long-term glances at each other and their understanding of their living habits, they may really have some love or respect for these poisons that are actually waiting for an opportunity to bite people.

This little sympathy has a necessary premise, that is, the family must first have enough skills to first cut open its fangs and remove the deadly poison glands, or some other corresponding method.

Therefore, Li Zhi did not despise them because he had spied on the secrets, these people could

It is not easy to depict the cooperation between poisonous snakes and people in a relatively plump and complete way.

After this performance, it came to an end for the time being, because the roast whole lamb and roasted beef were served.

As a result, some people are very prosperous in wine, because the height of Xifeng wine that has not yet opened the altar is put up, and the mellow fragrance is immediately scattered when the mud is opened, and the unique tail is long and long, especially the high rollers in the wine know the extraordinary.

Although there are similar high-grade liquors on the market, Xifeng Liquor, which is formulated by Li Zhi, integrates the advantages of clear fragrance and strong aroma, and the aroma and taste, head and tail are the same, and it is a pioneering compound aroma type Daqu liquor.

Distilled spirits with compound aromas, fermented by new cellar mud, belong to a new winemaking process, and for a while, those counterfeiters can not imitate the mellow and fullness in it.

In particular, guests who are far away from the Muslim environment of their hometowns usually do not have the opportunity to come into contact with this kind of high-grade liquor, even if the status of the four princes is respected, due to the restrictions of religious beliefs, they do not have such opportunities.

On the contrary, Nasir and Irma, as soon as the wine developed by Li Zhi appeared, they took the opportunity to save a batch, so that they could have a drink when no one was around, so as to relieve the addiction of alcoholics.

Because of this, they saw the glint in Mahdi's eyes, and they all smiled in understanding, even though they were currently in a foreign country, and the topic of drinking with each other was never openly discussed.

Even if the liquor is placed on the table, whoever wants to drink it will pour it by himself, and the relevant taboos in religion are still in awe.

But the excuse of following the local customs perfectly solves the embarrassment in everyone's hearts, and they also have an explanation of Allah in their hearts, because the wine culture is relatively positive in the eyes of the Tang people, and proper drinking can play a positive role in the body, which is an inherent cognition since the emergence of alcohol.

Even alcohol is almost omnipotent in the eyes of traditional Chinese medicine, and this benign stimulating effect can have a certain good effect on the blood of the whole body, which everyone can experience.

Therefore, in the humanistic environment of the Tang Dynasty, it is a psychological responsibility that the people of the Western Regions can fully accept.

In the reality of the Tang Dynasty, the Arab world did not implement the ban on alcohol as thoroughly as in later generations, at least alcoholic beverages such as ordinary wine would appear on the table as usual.

Obviously, the high-grade Xifeng wine is far more professional than the kind of fruit wine made by the Arabs themselves.

At present, the high-grade Xifeng wine is still a luxury drink, and like those top-quality fruit wines, the attendants of the inn did not provide it to those artists in large quantities.

Li Zhi deliberately found his old club for this reason, and sent enough alcohol to the artists as well, and he didn't feel distressed about this thing in countless storage rings.

His unintentional act of kindness was actually seen by many well-intentioned people.

Especially those family members and the cultivators of Luofu Mountain have been deeply shocked by his murderous behavior, and tonight, I saw this person's heartfelt and intimate arrangements for artists with low status, and the shock I felt was even more obvious.

At some point, Ibn came to him under the hand of Afifa, and let Li Zhi happily hold it in his arms, then turned his finger to the barbecue place, and asked him to take it to ask for his favorite beef ribs.

Unlike roasted whole lamb, beef ribs that are flipped over and roasted separately and sprinkled with a rich cumin aroma have always been Ibn favorites.

Before, Li Zhi had quietly picked him up, and what was in front of the grill was what he was in charge of.
