8. Ingredients
When Meng Po almost filled the entire container, Qianlong's corpse had completely dried up, and it was no longer the hideous appearance just now, just the pale after death. Even some of the black smoke that was still wafting in the air dissipated, leaving only some messy tables and chairs, and skinny corpses.
Lao Qi sighed heavily, and he didn't know whether he had let go of his burden or had a heavier responsibility. Now, he is left alone, and the wives and children of those brothers have to rely on him to support him, and he still has a long way to go.
Looking at the other three in this room, Ku Ding, Meng Po, and Ning Meng, Lao Qi's eyes were a little trance-like, Lao Qi only knew Ku Ding's name now, and the other two should belong to Ku Ding's subordinates, not to mention Ning Mon, who stood at the door and refused to come in, Ku Ding and Meng Po, the two of them just looked at the first glance, which made people have a sense of frustration, the dragon and phoenix in the world, probably nothing more than that.
Rejoice.
At this moment, Lao Qi's mind flashed such a thought, maybe Ku Ding is a better tree, a big tree that can let him live, and can enjoy the shade and shade.
Inexplicably, Lao Qi glanced at the big tree in the yard through the window, and the shadows were swaying faintly, covering the bright moon.
"The body will be left with me for one night, and tomorrow at noon will come and bring it back, so that it can be buried alive."
Ku Ding looked at Qianlong's shriveled corpse and said to Lao Qi, his chest clothes were still open, they were scratched by Qianlong's corpse when he was transformed, and there were originally some scars, but at this time they were already intact.
Lao Qi didn't care about these details, his mind was very messy now, and when he saw Ku Ding say this, he didn't think much about it, nodded and asked.
"So I'll go back now?"
"Well, let's prepare for it in the next few days, pick a day to set off, and go to the tomb of the grandson who sold fish, since you signed the deed, the things promised to you will naturally be done, go."
Lao Qi nodded, glanced at his brother's corpse, and walked out under Ning Meng's guidance, looking at his back by the light, it was also very lonely.
It wasn't until Ning Meng sent people away and came back that he saw that Ku Ding was already carrying a kitchen knife, gesturing to Qianlong's corpse, and Meng Po next to him was holding the big jar of containers to explain to Ku Ding.
"The black gluttonous insect is not an ordinary Gu, it does not grow by polyculture and devouring each other, it needs to be fed with essence blood in the extreme yin land, with the group as the structure, similar to ants or bees, there are millions of them in this altar, but there should be one male and one female two adults, if it is according to what you said, it has been linear, then it has been raised for more than a hundred years, even if it is killed by you, its insect corpse is also a rare yin source tonic."
Ku Ding nodded again and again when Meng Po said, and he was very greedy when he looked like that.
"Well, in this way, a worm corpse can catch up with a hundred years of wild ginseng, I saw that the worm was in the throat, and if the punch went down, the worm would definitely die near the throat, but the neck was a little difficult to start, and I promised Lao Qi to leave the whole corpse...... Forget it, after I dig it out, you can make up for it when the time comes, so that you don't show any traces. ”
Ning Meng heard the two of them say this, and she was also a little sluggish, but when she saw that there was such a big jar of insects in Meng Po's hand, and there were millions of them, she was still agitated from time to time when she looked at that jar of black water, and her scalp was numb in an instant. After thinking about it, he still stepped aside, he still had some resistance to the insects.
However, Ku Ding's mouth is not picky, he not only wants to catch the two adults, he has already agreed with Meng Po, and the black liquid in the jar will also be divided into half and made fried noodles. Of course, not noodles, but flour noodles.
Usually fried noodles are fried with hot oil and fried raw flour until golden brown, mixed with sugar or mixed with water to make a paste is delicious, and a bowl in the morning is much more nutritious than fried dough sticks. And this kind of black gluttonous insect is definitely more delicate than flour, the heat is well controlled, and the fishy smell is removed, which is not only delicious, but also very replenishing, and is definitely a nourishing snack for yin.
As for why there is still half left, it is, of course, to be raised.
"The black gluttonous insects are extinct in other places, there should only be some old tombs, maybe there may be some Confucian families in southern Xinjiang, we are also lucky."
Meng Po's original words, although the two adults died, and most of the ones in the jar actually died, as long as these insects can be raised, an adult can be cultivated in about a few years, and with the adults, everything is easy to say.
Ku Ding is more interested in the two adults, if they are really a hundred years old, then they can't swallow them in one bite, they have to think of a way to completely squeeze out their deliciousness.
As soon as the kitchen knife was pressed, Ku Ding cut the neck of Qianlong's corpse vertically, he was not like other cooks, there were a bunch of knives, one each for deboning and peeling, and he used a civil and military kitchen knife to solve all problems.
The neck should be regarded as one of the most complex areas of the human head, cartilage tissue, muscles and all kinds of small skeletons are already gathered together, at this time Qianlong has been shriveled skin and bones, almost lost the water of the whole body, or do a lot of destruction, to find two hair-like insect corpses, it is still very difficult.
Ku Ding's white hands flew up and down, the kitchen knife in his hand was used by him with some miraculous skills, and the shriveled flesh was pulled away by him layer by layer, he didn't have to avoid blood vessels and the like, after all, there was no blood, and soon the bones were seen.
Eventually, Ku Ding found two black wires at the back of the Adam's apple, clinging to the throat, and peeled them off perfectly.
The two black wires are exactly nine inches long, and one of them is twice as thick as the other, although this comparison seems to be meaningless, after all, no matter how thick it is, it is the root hair wash, but Meng Po said that the thick is the female worm, which is naturally more nutritious.
The two "strands of hair" are carefully put away, and after the two good things are ready, they are ready to find the ingredients.
The next thing is to restore the neck of Qianlong, who has been "disassembled", it depends on Meng Po's means. She took a small brown vial, opened it and looked transparent, but inside were some small insects, but they were completely transparent, and ordinary people were invisible.
It's not Cu Ding's concern in the future, he is going to make fried noodles now, and it's better to make the ingredients when they are always fresh.
This time, Ku Ding didn't use meat oil, but took a small jar from the basement under the black shop, the jar was pitch black, very tightly sealed, and there were some unclear ornaments on the tank, which seemed to preserve something good.
Ning Meng was originally not interested in using insects for snacks, but after seeing Ku Ding take out this jar, he was a little hesitant.
"Ah...... Sir, are you sure you want to do this with this? Isn't it too wasteful? ”
"Anyway, after so long, this mermaid oil is very fishy."
