Chapter 1 The Eight Immortals of Taihu Lake
With Weibo, many things are easy to do.
Chen Er previewed the next live broadcast on Weibo in advance.
But that's only half the story.
"See you at half past six tomorrow morning, Taihu Lake."
Chen Er typed this line in the airport's waiting room and sent it out.
Then I turned off my phone and boarded the plane to JS.
When I arrived at the edge of Taihu Lake, I stayed in a hotel room that had been booked, and then stood in front of the big floor-to-ceiling window and stretched out.
The location of this hotel is good, just on the edge of Taihu Lake.
Standing on the balcony, you can see most of the scenery of Taihu Lake.
The afternoon sun has a slightly reddish orange tinge, warm and not dazzling.
From time to time, a cool breeze with water vapor blows on the surface of the lake, gently blowing on the face or pouring into the collar, which makes people can't help but feel a sense of comfort and happiness from the heart.
Chen Er stood on the balcony and watched the scenery until the sun was crumbling and the lake was reflected in the fiery red color of the sunset.
He turned back into the house and took out what he had brought with him.
Cutting props, cutting boards, dishes, plates, chopsticks, spoons.
There is also a small iron pot and spatula.
Most of these things cannot be carried with you and need to be checked in.
It can be seen how troublesome it is to go out as a cook.
But there is no way, and to make delicious food, you must find first-class ingredients.
He could only follow him here.
Chen Er thought to himself why the system couldn't provide something like storage.
Chen Er had a good night's rest, set the alarm clock, and got up at six o'clock the next day, began to wash, and prepared the package for going out.
May can be regarded as summer, according to the literary and artistic saying, April and May are the time when the grass grows and the warbler flies in the south of the Yangtze River.
At this time, the sky in the Jiangnan area was very early, and it was already bright at six o'clock.
Chen Er walked out of the hotel with his backpack on his back and came to the edge of Taihu Lake.
Most of the tourists at this moment have not yet gotten up.
It was very quiet, and the sun had not yet risen.
Only the lush grass and wildflowers blooming quietly on the roadside.
Occasionally, a few birds flutter their wings and fly over the treetops, making a "rustling" sound.
A few leaves will fall from the branches.
Chen Er picked up a leaf that had fallen on his shoulder, and then turned on the live broadcast.
"Long time no see, do you miss the anchor?"
Chen Er greeted everyone.
Because I have been doing live broadcasts for a while, I have formed a fixed fan base, so even if the live broadcast started relatively early today, the number of fans who came to watch the live broadcast is still quite large.
Before the live broadcast was opened, nearly 100,000 people were online.
Riding a snail to run to the well-off: "Chen Laoshi, we think you can't eat chopsticks." ”
Everyone expressed their curiosity about this trip to Taihu Lake.
Watermelon is not an east melon: "Why did Chen Laoshi come to Taihu Lake?" Catching crabs or swimming naked? ”
Qingtian: "I said it on behalf of the majority of female fans, we said that we want to see the anchor swim naked!" ”
Eat a pound: "I'm going to call the police!" ”
Chen Er looked disgusted, "The anchor is a person with a bottom line, and he insists on selling his art and not selling his body." ”
"The anchor came to Taihu Lake this time to find an ingredient with excellent flavor! You can guess. ”
After that, he walked around the lake.
The surface of Taihu Lake is covered with a large thin mist, as light as a thin veil and like smoke.
Occasionally, a piece of reeds or lush aquatic plants at the water's edge is exposed, and there are small fishing boats half-hidden in the aquatic plants.
Chen Er's mood unconsciously became relaxed and soft.
"It's said that Jiangnan is good, and I really understand it at this moment."
"At this time, Taihu Lake is like a veiled lotus picking girl, hazy and graceful, gentle and beautiful."
There is a tiger in his heart: "Why does Chen Laoshi always like to describe the scenery as a beautiful girl!" Did I find anything ......?"
Eat a pound: "Funny, funny, Hatchy smile jpg."
Chen Er stretched out his hand and pointed to the surface of the lake, and the camera turned very considerately.
The scenery of Taihu Lake is suddenly in full view.
The thin smoke on the surface of the lake is light, and the aquatic plants and reeds on the lake's edge are covered under the thin smoke, which looks hazy and shy.
Everyone couldn't help but marvel at the beauty of Taihu Lake.
The farther Chen Er walked, the fewer and fewer traces of pedestrians walked by.
He walked to a lotus bush and stopped.
A golden semicircle had already appeared at the edge of the lake, and the sun was about to rise.
Chen Er took out a bamboo kettle hanging from his backpack.
Then stand on the edge of the lake and start collecting the dew on the lotus leaves.
May is not yet the time when the lotus flowers are in full bloom, and most of the lotus flowers have a small bud, or no bud at all.
The lotus leaves are growing very well, a large patch, and the color is as green as new jade.
The crystal clear dew drops are lying on the lotus leaves, round and very cute.
As soon as Chen Er reached out and touched the lotus leaf, the dew all slid tremblingly into the middle of the lotus leaf, converging into a puddle of water.
He leaned over the bamboo tube in his hand and carefully filled the water on the lotus leaf.
Fans outside the screen saw that he was busy for a long time, and only then did he collect less than half a cylinder of water.
I couldn't help but mutter, don't you want to take the dew to make tea?
Chen Er replied without raising his head, "Dew is the freshest, in addition to cooking tea, it can also be used to make food." It can increase the freshness of the ingredients. ”
"The best way to collect dew is when the sun is about to rise. At that time, the dew was the cleanest. ”
By the time he had collected a full tube of dew, the sun had just risen over the lake.
He covered the bamboo tube and rehung it on his backpack.
Looking at the round of Jin Ri rising on the surface of the lake, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The surface of the lake was illuminated by the golden sunlight, and it was suddenly dyed golden.
The lake is sparkling with the breeze and reflects the golden sunlight, making it even more dazzling, as if it had been carved into gold and precious stones.
It's very different from the gentle appearance just now, but it's still beautiful and moving.
"It's no wonder that since ancient times, literati have loved Jiangnan, looking at this scenery, within one day, several changes."
Chen Er exclaimed.
Then he continued to walk on, seemingly farther and farther.
Everyone couldn't hold back and asked.
"What kind of ingredients are Chen Laoshi looking for?"
"Chen Lao is wet and said quickly! We can't guess anyway! ”
"Chen Lao Shi said quickly, we allow you to pretend to be forced!"
Chen Er stopped by the lake, looked at the camera and said, "Have you heard of the Eight Immortals of Taihu Lake?" ”
Fans outside the screen were stunned, and several people who reacted quickly quickly opened the webpage and were about to search.
Chen Er didn't hurry to explain.
"The Eight Immortals of Taihu Lake Water refer to the eight edible plants that grow in the water of Taihu Lake: Lotus Root, Lotus Root, Rhizome, Mushroom, Water Chestnut, Water Cressy, Red Ling, and Ulva."
"Today, the anchor came to Taihu Lake to find one of these immortals, Ulva cabbage."
"The name of this dish is Uvengalus soup, which comes from the Western Jin Dynasty."
