Section 8: Bathing and Food
Look down on kowtow bugs. Yun Ye felt that the knee bend was used to facilitate walking, not to kneel. Zhang, He, the second daughter no longer used the usual squatting ceremony, but kowtowed on the ground, whimpering in her mouth, Zhang Cheng was a little envious, and hurriedly replied for the second woman: "The adults are compassionate, they can't see the suffering, the ability to teach must be top-notch, Zhang Cheng passed on the grace of the two brothers on behalf of the two brothers." Finally dragged up the second woman, heard Zhang Cheng say this, and kowtowed again, Yun Ye's head was big, three fists and two feet drove away Zhang Cheng said to the second woman: "Some snacks, you also saw the mutton cooked just now, there is no difference from others, there are some tricks in the middle, look at it." As he spoke, he took the pine stick that had just been washed, peeled off the skin, threw it into the meat pot, covered it and continued to cook, and turned back to the two women and squeezed his eyes: "Don't tell others, this is your secret, and it is also the secret of cooking a good pot of mutton, I won't say the reason, and you won't understand it." Now teach you pancakes. "Pull out the hot noodles that have been awakened from the wooden barrel, knead them in three or two, roll them out and sprinkle them with green onions, then form a dough, and then roll them out, a green onion cake is formed, and the big stone slab baked on the fire is smeared with mutton fat, and when the green smoke rises, the dough cake is spread on it, and a stone slab is full of twenty dough cakes, and the fragrance is overflowing for a while. It's quiet. Looking back, Cheng Chumo's big bull's eye was at the back of Yun Ye's head, snorting and snorting, eager to take one and nibble on it now. He wasn't the only one, none of these bastards were working, and they all came around. Cheng Chumo? Yun Ye's face was hesitant and swallowed his saliva to rush everyone: "Work, work, Master Yun will make delicious food to treat everyone, let's work harder and get three hundred catties of salt out." The sergeants smiled and turned to work.
The sun was setting, and the sergeant, who had been tired all day, hurried to the place to eat, but saw six huge wooden barrels open in a row, and Yun Ye was standing next to the wooden barrels and stirring the brown solution in the wooden barrels with a wooden stick. Cheng Chumo held a green onion cake in his mouth and poured finely ground mineral powder into another bucket. "My lord, what is this for, could it be that my lord is also making salt?" "Make a fart salt, this is used for bathing, all of them are dirty into pigs, full of lice, fleas, you are lucky not to touch the epidemic, listen, one is counted as one, they are all soaked in the bucket, and then they can only eat by the river bathe," sergeants? If you don't take a bath and don't give you food, I think Yun Ye is used to eating, and I can't eat without taking a bath, so I don't have any opinions. How did they know that from their beards, hair, and necklines, there were some small creatures crawling around from time to time, which made people creepy to look at, and they were still eating, Yun Ye thought, can Lao Tzu eat. If these small creatures are allowed to run rampant, and there are a few infectious diseases, a large number of people will not die? In this era when there are no effective antibiotics, Yun Ye really doesn't want to die young. After communicating with Cheng Chu silently, he specially took out a wooden barrel filled with salt and used it for bathing, just disagreeing that Yun Ye could prevent the epidemic by taking a bath, for the sake of his brothers, he just messed around, anyway, it was a bath, not a killing. "Brothers, look at it, this is related to life, it is not vexatious, let alone superfluous, this middle knowledge is big, I won't explain it, this bath must be washed like this." After speaking, Yun Ye was the first to jump down in his clothes, and it was said that he was also passed on. Cheng Chumo jumped into another barrel, as a brother, let alone jumping into the barrel, he had to jump into the sea of fire. That's all I have to say. Yun Ye soaked in it for a full five minutes, held his breath, bubbled in the water, and then jumped out with a swing to give a lecture to the surrounding sergeants; "Everybody goes in, it's time to make a cup of tea, and the hair has to be soaked too, do you hear?" Yun Ye? The fellows replied weakly, obviously perfunctory, and shouted loudly; "Don't think I'm joking, three days from now, if anyone still has lice on them. Fleas, every time I find one, I will whip it, and I will never be lenient, I have asked the captain for a military order, do not make a mistake. "Regardless of them, who called me an official, they would thank me when they knew the benefits, and watched them soak in thick salt water one by one. Yun Ye ran towards the river with his legs, and the sensitive part of the salt water sting was too painful. Cheng Chumo, this bastard ran away early. …,
The scene by the river is so spectacular, 300 men wrapped in freshly cut crotch cloths squatting by the fire, holding a large bowl of green onion cakes, nibbling on mutton. No one spoke, and the ears were full of squeaks. The sound of squeaky soup. Yun Ye felt that he had seen it wrong, the three thousand cakes that the Huotou Army and the two women had been baking for most of the day disappeared like this, and Yun Ye could only eat two of these cakes, and then gnawed a piece of mutton, and his stomach was about to burst. And these guys were still full of resentment, saying that they were not full, and said with a burp and a stomach, there are too few things, and they will go hunting tomorrow, and they will definitely bring back all the sheep in Longyou. That's how lamb should be eaten. The mutton in the past was all ruined, and this bread was delicious, why couldn't my wife make such a delicious cake, so I went back and beat her.
The two women covered their faces and carried a large basket containing dandelions, ground bone skins and other wild vegetables, which help digestion and detoxification, and are the best among wild vegetables. Yun Ye took two and stuffed them in his mouth to chew, eating too much meat a day will cause gastrointestinal problems, originally tea was the best, no, so he had to eat grass. Cheng Chu silently saw that Yun Ye had eaten, of course he did it, so everyone grabbed a handful and ate it. I don't want to tell them why, just do it, so many things to ask. I didn't see Cheng Chumo leading the troops, so he went up with a fist in three or two sentences. Wangcai is good, he never asks, when he sees me eating grass, come and roll two pieces from the basket and eat. And that's it for me.
A busy day during the day didn't seem to drain the energy of these guys, staring at the moon in a daze one by two. The oldest man wiped a handful of vicissitudes of his beard, hummed a song gently, and listened for a long time to figure out the lyrics; "I am going, the willows are still there, I am returning, the rain and snow are falling." Repeating these two sentences, after many years of war and chaos, it is finally expected to be calm, and it is estimated that everyone has had enough of the chaotic life, and the rest of the war is full of longing and fear for a stable life. I don't know if my former relatives and friends are still safe. When I left, it was a good time for the willows to be green, and you held my hand and didn't let me leave. I'm back this year, but why is it snowing? Yun Ye knew that the original meaning was not explained like this, but at this moment, he really couldn't think of a more appropriate meaning for the author. For the first time, I touched the spiritual world of the Tang people. Yun Ye even thought that he was already a native of the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, how could my heart hurt so much. Fame but take it immediately, recruits will be enthusiastic about this sentence, veterans will not, the lucky ones who crawl out of the pile of dead people will never exchange their lives for these illusory things, and it is their greatest desire to see their families alive.
Yun Ye lay on the blanket on all fours basking in the moon, while Cheng Chumo was full of interest and pulled the zipper on the sleeping bag back and forth over and over again, he really couldn't figure out why this little thing was pulled, and the two rows of small teeth were closed by themselves, and they were quite strong. Yun Ye's sapper shovel has been rotated by him several times, this weird Qimen blade, can be chopped, can be dug, sawed, can also be folded up on the back, is a marching blade, steel is even better than his own hundred refining horizontal knife, the two hit each other, sparks, the shovel is okay horizontal knife but a small opening opens, Cheng Chumo's eyes almost fell out, the horizontal knife was given by his father on his fifteenth birthday, worth a thousand gold, he has always loved it like a treasure, just started to sleep and held it, with it I don't know how many treasure blades of the children of Chang'an City have been cut, A small half of Cheng Chumo's reputation for the three armies was won by this treasure knife, and now it can't even compare to a shovel, as far as Yun Ye said, this shovel is used to dig the ground at home. Thinking of this, he had the urge to bang his head against the tree. This guy has a lot of treasures, one long and one short, two daggers can be called sharpened iron like mud, the surface of the knife layer of snowflakes, such as pear blossoms blooming, the handle of the knife does not know what treasure it is, like jade not jade, there is a lotus flower growing in it, and it is not just how it grows, so the treasure he actually used to cut meat, after cutting it was washed with water casually, wiped it with a cloth and threw it into the bag. For this reason, Cheng Chumo pinched Yun Ye's neck and questioned for a long time, and only by taking away the big treasure knife could he be considered to forgive Yun Ye's ruined behavior. Cheng Chumo couldn't figure out why Yun Ye used the hard-to-find black glaze to pave small pieces one by one, and the workmanship was still very exquisite, even on the box below, the only flaw was that there were two holes on the side, and I don't know what it was for. When asked Yun Ye, he didn't say anything, but he didn't let the black glass on it be cut off. In a beautiful little box was a beautiful pearled flower, for the woman, and there was no gem growing on it, yes, it was growing, and nothing was seen wrapped in it, just like a jewel growing out of silver, and when the fire shone brightly, the jewel shone as if it had come to life. Oh my God, Cheng Chumo completely collapsed, who is this brother of his? He was full of treasures but regarded it as dirt, and the secret recipe for making salt, which was more important than his life, was casually offered, and his belongings worth 10,000 gold were checked indiscriminately. The treasure knife you fancy is given away at will, you don't drink non-wine, you don't eat non-food, you get angry when others are dirty, and the dishes and chopsticks are boiled in the pot with water before they are used. This fucking is the son of the disaster, the prince and princess are not as particular as his old man, with a pony behind him, then it is not a horse, it is Uncle Ma, not only does not work, but also has a bad temper, whoever provokes and bites whom, now the dough cake has not been fried in oil and has not been eaten, after eating the cake, he has to chew a few mouthfuls of tender grass, and the famous wine of Jincheng that Yun Ye does not drink is all fed to his old man. At night, you have to sleep in a tent, and the other horses sleep standing and it sleeps lying down. You have to ask, or you won't be sure. …,
''Brother, who is your teacher?'' Brother, you are already extraordinary, you will solve my Longyou difficulty, now the meritorious horse has been dispatched, I believe that His Majesty Xià will be rewarded heavily, to pick enough salt, this great achievement will be a certainty, you tell me, your teacher's business! ”
Yun Ye sighed, told a lie, it needs to be supported by countless lies, or not, today I will tell this lie to the end and make an end: "I was ignorant when I was young, I only remember that I grew up in the arms of my teacher, saying that I was a master and apprentice, but in fact, I am no different from father and son, and my family teacher often says that I am the evil obstacle of his life, if it weren't for my drag, I would have passed away a few years ago, and I should have been at ease." I tell him that my life is like a wanderer in the rivers and lakes, there is a fate to get together, and the fate is scattered, there is no need to pay attention to life and death, just as a journey, he and I are both travelers on the way, see different scenery, taste different lives, and now it is time to break up, there is a fate or can still meet. This sentence makes me puzzled, the teacher has passed away, and my body has been burned to ashes according to my will, how can we say that we met? ”
"Your master is an immortal?"
"The master is a qi refiner, but he hates ghosts and gods the most."
"Did your master beat you? My dad used to beat me a lot, but now he doesn't beat me anymore, and sometimes I don't even want to recognize him. ”
Cheng Chumo's childish language made Yun Ye's heart tingle for a while, he began to really believe in himself, at the age of sixteen or seventeen, he usually pretended to be a captain to show his father and his subordinates, and tried to pretend to be a qualified officer, he had already been on the battlefield twice, Yun Ye believed that he was still a little scared, although he had been eager to show himself on the battlefield since he was a child, and he had seen the cruelty of the battlefield from various film and television works, and it must be another feeling to be on the battlefield in person. It can be seen that he is very lonely, and the children of the family have to bear more responsibilities, and if they want to get it, they will inevitably lose others, which is equivalent. Yun Ye secretly swore in his heart that he would never deceive him again, and only God knew his full origins.
The two women sat quietly beside Yun Ye, in their opinion, Yun Ye was still a half-old child, although he was smart, although he was an official, but the grief in his eyes still made them motherly, and he was not qualified to comfort him, and he was closer to him so that he didn't feel too lonely.
Cheng Chumo stopped talking, he was not a man of many words, he believed in his brother, he could feel his sadness, and he was with him.
