On the first day of September, the Mid-Mountain Grand Gathering of the Valley of the Four Winds. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Yan Tiezhang, the master of steaming, did not appear at his own stall.

This famous master chef was sitting on a pony on the banks of the Jinhui River, fishing with a hat - although this is not the day of the king salmon migration.

Yan felt old—though 150 was not too old for a panda man—and could only be said to be just past middle age.

Yan still feels old: "I have become fond of reminiscing about the past, I have lost my vitality, and I am no longer the stick boy who sweats in the field in order to catch the troublesome rabbit demon - you see, I accidentally started to reminisce again." ”

If you define yourself, Yan considers himself a chef.

This seems undoubted, after all, he was born in the Iron Palm family, and he has had a special experience in cooking since he was a child.

Well, I made a lot of excuses, and Yan had to admit that it was actually because he was lonely.

Twenty-eight years ago, in the same year that his little nephew was born, Yan lost his younger brother, younger siblings, and his lover. The praying mantis demon came so suddenly, and the momentum was so huge, that even Guo Xiong, the head of the Shadow Trace Sect, who rushed to support him at the first time, was seriously injured.

After repelling the mantis demon, Yan found that only he and his newborn nephew were left in the Iron Palm family's own vein, Drunken Wind - at that time, he was still called "Bao".

Thinking of the drunken wind at that time, Yan couldn't help but smile.

Zuifeng is definitely the most well-behaved red panda he has ever seen, never noisy, let alone bedwetting, and even speaks much earlier than other children. It's a pity that the drunken little face is always tense, maybe the original disaster had a great impact on him.

Yan didn't know what to do to make Xiao Zuifeng happy, so he chose to use the panda man's way - eating and drinking, Xiao Zuifeng was too small to drink, so Yan changed his tricks to make food.

It was a time that is really heartwarming to think about now.

The war caused Yan to lose all his savings, so he simply cultivated a piece of land at the foot of the mid-mountain and cultivated it himself.

The water from the Splendid Valley made the vegetables ripe in one day, so Yan took them to the Mid-Levels Market to sell, two baskets on a flat shoulder, drunken wind in the front, turnips in the back - well, occasionally pumpkins.

After selling the vegetables, I bought spices and came back to cook the vegetables and give them to the drunken wind.

Sometimes golden lotuses grow in the field, and at this time, Yan can buy some tiger ribs or other meat from the middle of the mountain and make a tooth sacrifice.

Therefore, eating is the language of panda people, and Xiao Drunken Wind is slowly becoming more cheerful.

As the drunken wind gradually grew up, Yan took him to start fishing and flying kites.

Yan still remembers that Zuifeng said that he likes big kites, on which can stand a big kite of panda people - the skeleton of the kite is wrapped in strong oil paper with bamboo from the fist forest.

Yan once asked Zuifeng how to fly such a big kite, and Zuifeng was whimsical: "You can go and beg the Red Spirit Heavenly God to give me a piece of her tail feather!" ”

Later, when I went to sell vegetables, Zuifeng stopped following, because Zuifeng couldn't keep up with Yan's footsteps, but he couldn't be picked in the basket.

Yan still remembers that the first time Zuifeng cooked was when he was six years old. To this day, Yan still thinks it is unbelievable that such a young child can make a serving of boiled enoki mushrooms - although there is a bit of salt in it.

Yan happily brought the dish to Aunt Li next door to share, and explained that it was made by Zuifeng, and he still remembers Aunt Li's compliment: "Your nephew is awesome and promising—he is like your son." ”

Yan swore that it was the most beautiful compliment he had ever heard.

Later, Zuifeng gradually grew into a generation of master chefs, and at the age of eighteen he became proficient in the art of steaming.

Yan remembered ten years ago, when the eighteen-year-old drunken wind resigned to him.

"Uncle, I have to go—I hope to be able to enjoy the tranquility of the mid-levels forever, so I hope to protect this tranquility with my own strength."

From the eyes of the drunken wind, Yan only saw firmness.

Zuifeng embarked on a journey with carefully prepared shrimp dumplings - leaving Yan silently praying that the shrimp dumplings could bring his good luck over the years to Zuifeng - the mantis shrimp wrapped in shrimp dumplings and the incubator containing shrimp dumplings were the golden lotus that Yan had saved for 12 years.

In the next ten years, Zuifeng fought in the south and the north, and Yan began to practice his cooking skills hard, and finally became a master of steaming and roasting in the middle of the mountain.

Drunken Wind returned to Mid-Levels and was already famous--but what made Yan happiest was that Drunken Wind's cooking skills had greatly improved.

With the support of Yan's multi-party operation and Zuifeng's own connections, "Bao's Food Project" began.

However, two years ago today, Drunken Wind finally left Pandaria.

Before you know it, the sun is setting.

Yan put away the fishing rod, carried the empty basket on his back, packed up the small horse, and slowly hummed a song and made a kite back to the middle of the mountain.

Elune hung low in the sky

Coax the blue child to sleep

They went back to the clouds

The stars followed

A cool breeze blows gently

The lights in the creek are shining

Storm Spirits Grandpa

I'm already drunk."

The song drifted into the distance, and time seemed to go back to the days when Yan took the drunken wind to catch grasshoppers in the autumn twenty-five years ago.
