Chapter 8 Yak hot pot barley wine

Lao Street, is the only street in the town of Bingzhongluo, many good restaurants are also on both sides of this street, Gao Chao thought that this van would not take a few minutes to carry them to the place, but unexpectedly, the three of them sat in the car and swayed for about 20 minutes, but did not see the van has the meaning of stopping.

Gao Chao was a little nervous at the moment, he saw that Lao Lai had been sitting in the co-pilot and chatting with the Kangzang driver in Tibetan, but he couldn't even understand a word, I don't know what they were talking about, the fat man was really heartless, he had fallen asleep on the seat at the moment, Gao Chao looked at the darkening sky outside the window, and couldn't help but be more worried, and said in his heart Could it be that this Kangzang driver and Lao Lai are in a gang, are they going to pull themselves and the fat man to some remote place to bleed directly, kill people and goods.

Gao Chao thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to act rashly, but his right hand had already touched the hilt of the knife on his waist, and the seven-inch-long dagger had always been pinned to the waistband of his trousers.

Just when Gao Chao was so nervous, the van suddenly stopped, and then Lao Lai turned around and said, "Two masters, let's get to the place!" ”

Gao Chao was still very alert, so he looked out the car window, but when he saw the black rumbling around, where there was any hot pot restaurant, he couldn't help but feel that things were not good, it seemed that he was really put in a position by the center.

Thinking so in his heart, Gao Chao went to push the fat man, wanting him to prepare to fight to the death, but who knew that at this time the old man had already gotten out of the car and opened the door behind them, and the fat man happened to wake up at this time, and when he saw that the car had stopped, he got out of the cat's waist.

Gao Chao saw that the fat man had gotten out of the car, and couldn't help but worry about him, and said that it was so dark outside the car that if he was really attacked suddenly, he couldn't guard against it at all, so he quickly got out of the car and wanted to pull out the dagger on his waist.

It was too late, it was fast, but in the interval between Gao Chao's efforts, his hand was pressed down.

Gao Chao was immediately taken aback, and when he looked up, he saw that the person holding his right hand was Lao Lai.

The old man smiled at Gao Chao at this moment and said: "Don't be excited, this young master, you look ahead, the hotel is inside, don't look at this place is a bit remote, but it can be lively inside, many people are specially running here." ”

Speaking from the heart, Gao Chao never imagined that this old man had such strength in his hands, because he felt that the force of pulling out the knife just now was not small, and he was actually held down by one of Lao Lai's hands, and he also felt that there seemed to be a lot of calluses on the palm of Lao Lai's hands, pressing on the back of his hand, like a dry old bark, hard and rough.

But at this stalemate, Lao Lai loosened the strength of his hand, and suddenly let go of Gao Chao's hand, and then he turned around and patted the fat man on the shoulder, and said: "Fat man, come, I'll help you with your luggage, let's go to the hotel." ”

At the moment, Gao Chao couldn't help but be surprised again, and said that this old man really had a way of handling things, so he couldn't help but be really impressed by him, thinking that he was probably more than just a shovel of the ground.

The fat man has been looking into the distance since he got out of the car just now, and he didn't see the contest between Gao Chao and Lai Zhongzhong at all, so at this moment, Lao Lai and the fat man were already talking and laughing and walking forward.

And Gao Chao took the backpack from the car and put it on his shoulder at this moment, looked at their backs and thought about it again, and couldn't help but feel a little helpless, saying that maybe he was too nervous just now, and even wanted to draw a knife to defend himself, now it seems that he may have really misunderstood Lao Lai, thinking of this, Gao Chao had no choice but to keep silent and walk in the direction of Lao Lai and the fat man.

It turns out that there is a small road in front of the convenient, the path can not go to the car, only pedestrians, not far from the end of the path, there is really a yard, there are some lights in the yard, and there are a few small wooden houses, it seems that there is the Ximudu yak hot pot restaurant that Lao Lai said.

As soon as he entered the gate of the courtyard, Gao Chao could already smell the aroma of yak meat, and the smell of spicy hot pot was still permeating the air at the same time.

As soon as I saw that Lao Lai was a frequent visitor here, I saw that he had just stopped in this courtyard, and a Kang-Tibetan woman ran out of the wooden house, the woman was thirty or forty years old, slender and average-looking, and when she saw Lao Lai, she said something in Tibetan, and Lao Lai also responded in Tibetan, so the woman nodded, turned around and led the three of them through a wooden house in the front yard, and walked towards the back yard.

The backyard was much smaller than the frontyard, and there were only two wooden houses, one not next to each other, but one on the left and one on the left, and the woman led them to one of them, opened the door and lit the lamp, and they found that the wooden house in the backyard was obviously different from the one in the front yard.

This wooden house is decorated very chic, the walls are decorated with colorful reliefs, carved with the eight treasures of Tibetan Buddhism, from left to right are the treasure umbrella, goldfish, treasure vase, wonderful lotus, white snail, plate length, victory building, golden wheel, these eight treasures symbolize auspiciousness, carved on the wooden wall, both pleasing to the eye, and add a plain elegance, it is really unique, beautiful, the four walls of the wooden house are still so, the roof is not ordinary, but see that the roof is also painted with auspicious clouds and quadrangular grids, the lattice is full of auspicious colored flowers, rare birds and beasts, Its colors are gorgeous, lifelike, and vivid.

At this time, as soon as Gao Chao and the fat man entered this wooden house, they were already stunned at the door, and the old man hurriedly told the two of them to sit down quickly, and they reacted at this time, and suddenly felt that the performance just now was a little embarrassing, so they quickly laughed at themselves and praised this Tibetan hotel is really good, but I didn't expect that even a private room was decorated like the Potala Palace, which was really breathtaking.

The old man smiled and said that this is nothing, the Tibetan family is generally this style, he is in Bingzhongluo's home, I am afraid that it is many times stronger than this, and even said that even the door frame of his house is covered with gold edges, and the fat man saw that the old boy was blowing again, and this blow may have to be sprayed for dozens of minutes, so he quickly interrupted Lao Lai's words, and asked him to order food and eat quickly, and he was going to faint with hunger.

Under the urging of the fat man, this old man let people go to the hot pot charcoal basin, without a moment of effort, a pot of fragrant spicy yak hot pot has been prepared properly, when the water in the pot is opened, the bright red yak tender meat into the pot, the instant meat fragrance overflowing to the face, at this moment the fat man Zhao has already coveted, his eyes are straight looking at the yak meat in the hot pot, but his throat has been swallowing saliva, at this time the proprietress entered the house again, but in her arms holding a big jar, at this time Lao Lai smiled and said, No matter how fragrant the yak meat here is, you can't eat it, but no matter how strong the barley wine here is, you can't stop drinking it.

Sure enough, when Lao Lai slapped the mud seal at the mouth of the jar with one palm, suddenly there was a smell of wine wafting out, when the smell entered the nostrils, it could make people suddenly recall the flowing cloud stream in the mountains, the green field flowers on the side of the road, as if just smelling it, it can already be said to be a kind of enjoyment, in fact, this kind of barley wine in Tibetan areas is superb is not that he has not drunk, but it has such a mellow taste of barley wine, he is really the first time to encounter.

At this time, Lao Lai had already filled two glasses of barley wine for Gao Chao and the fat man, and then the three of them served the cups together, and drank them all after a few polite words at will.

Food and wine are in front of him, ordinary people are drunk with immortals, and now even if Lao Lai tells Gao Chao and the fat man that this pot of yak meat and that jar of barley wine are poisonous, I am afraid that they will not be able to stop the two of them.

At this moment, the three of them were like hungry tigers and hungry wolves, and the pot full of yak meat came to a whirlwind, and the jar full of barley wine was washed away, and everything on the table was swept away by them, and after just half an hour, the three of them were already lazily reclining on their chairs, eating and drinking.

Now that the wine has been drunk and the meat has been eaten, it is time to get down to business.

In fact, how much alcohol the fat man has, Gao Chao naturally knows very well, like such a jar of barley wine, Gao Chao feels that even if the fat man is contracted by himself, it should not be a problem, just when the three of them were drinking, he had already made a look at the fat man, so they each kept an eye on it, so when they were fighting just now, the two of them were basically drinking alone with Lao Lai.

However, Gao Chao didn't expect that this old man was not only an old fritter old man, but he was also an old drunkard with very poor self-control, he was very greedy when he drank, before and after, although this old man drank a lot of alcohol, but he drank a lot more than the two of them, so at this moment, I saw that this old man had a blurred eyes, a smile, and a self-absorbed look, thinking that this old boy must have drunk a lot.

So Gao Chao waved his hand at the fat man, and the fat man nodded and took out the bronze drum from Gao Chao's huge backpack.

The old man was already nine points drunk in his eyes, but when he saw the bronze drum in the fat man's hand at this moment, he seemed to suddenly get excited, and said vaguely: "Two young masters, this ...... This bronze drum, I just ...... Just left. ”

As he spoke, he burped and turned redder, and then he closed his eyes, drooped his head to the side, and fell asleep.

Gao Chao saw him like this, and couldn't help but secretly scream in his heart, saying that he and the fat man were a little too strong just now, as if he had really poured this old boy up, and he originally planned to just get him drunk, and then let him spit out some truths after drinking, to see how much he knew about this copper drum, but at this moment, it seems that this old man has been drunk unconscious, how can this be good.

Seeing this, the fat man also shook his head and said, "Damn, I thought the Central Committee comrades were so awesome, didn't he say that he only stayed here for more than ten years for this barley wine?" It's good now, half a jar is poured into this egg thing, it seems that our business can't be discussed, poor bronze drum, you are really miserable, there was a wronged boss who wanted to redeem you for a lot of money, and now it seems that you can only continue to press the bottom of the box! ”

Gao Chao saw the fat man talking nonsense to the bronze drum, and said that it seemed that his wine strength had also come up, and now only he was still a little sober, so he wanted to try to wake up Lao Lai again, but no matter how he called him, he just couldn't wake up with his head drooping, and finally he was so angry that Gao Chao slapped him twice in the face, and he just snorted twice, and couldn't even open his eyelids.

At this time, the fat man saw that Gao Chao couldn't wake him up, so he said to Gao Chao: "Lao Gao, if you really can't do it, just wait for tomorrow, anyway, Lao Lai has taken a fancy to the things in our hands, are you still afraid that he will not be able to escape?" ”

Gao Chao shook his head and said to the fat man: "That's not the case at all, I'm not worried about this now, I'm worried about ......"

Gao Chao said this, but he couldn't even say it anymore, because he always felt that there was something wrong with this old man, but he couldn't figure out where the problem was for a while, so he got stuck in the middle of the conversation.

The fat man saw that Gao Chao's eyes were stunned, so he dangled his palm in front of his eyes and said, "Hey, Lao Gao, you kid is also drunk?" Why do you see that your eyes are straight? ”

At this moment, the fat man's big hand was shaking in front of Gao Chao's eyes, but Gao Chao thought of something, so he quickly took Lao Lai's right hand and put it in front of him to observe it carefully.

When the fat man saw him like this, he asked at a loss, "Old Gao, what are you doing here?" Do you still like this mouthful and are still interested in our central comrade? Looks like I'm really going to get to know you again! ”

Gao Chao helplessly scolded the fat man: "What the hell are you talking about? I noticed that there were a lot of calluses on the palm of this old man's hand, so I thought I would take a closer look. ”

When the fat man heard him say this, he suddenly became serious, and quickly leaned over and carefully looked at Lao Lai's right hand.

I saw that the old man's palms were wide and thick, full of calluses, and his fingers were also very thick and powerful, especially the index finger and middle finger, which were long and thick, like two small rolling pins, and at the ends of the fingers and knuckles, they were even more calloused, presumably he often used these two fingers.

Seeing this, the fat man suddenly stretched out his hand, snatched Lao Lai's right hand from Gao Chao's hand, and put it in front of him to observe it seriously.

Gao Chao saw that the fat man seemed to have found something, so he whispered on the side: "Fat man, how is it, what do you see?" ”

The fat man frowned and nodded at Gao Chao, his face was originally a little ruddy because of drinking, but at this time, somehow, it had become a little pale.

I saw that he carefully put down Lao Lai's right hand, and then whispered to Gao Chao: "Lao Gao, it seems that you are right, this grandson is indeed not an ordinary person......
