About 30 miles to the east of Changning County, there is a low mountain of about 100 zhang, this mountain is strange, the shape is like a vulture standing still, so it is called Vulture Mountain. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoBecause the mountain road is narrow and overgrown, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so it is often occupied by bandits.

A few days ago, a group of about 300 bandits went up to the Condor Mountain, and the leader called himself the Condor, burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of evil. The guards stationed around the army encircled and suppressed it many times, but they couldn't help it.

"Boss, when will we be able to open, it looks like the New Year is coming to an end, and the big guy also wants to have a good year. In the stockade at the top of the vulture hill, a man with a face and a somewhat bent back asked the vulture.

"Camel, fuck you, you are in a hurry, can you be in a hurry about this? Now the officers and soldiers are encircling and suppressing everywhere, if you dare to jump out, you will be the first to be stabbed. Wait, there will always be mountains that can't survive before us. The vulture drank the liquor from the bowl, and felt so warm that he untied his clothes a little, and then scolded the man.

"Hehe, I'm not worried about food, I went to the county seat last time ......" The camel smiled with a smile on his face, and opened his mouth to say, but he was only halfway through speaking, and immediately realized something, so he quickly shut up.

Last time, so many elite brothers were lost in the county, but there was a scar in the leader's heart, where did he dare to mention it again.

"Hmph, wait, in a few days, we'll have a big ticket. Although he stopped in time, the vulture's face became cold, and the two narrow eyes seemed to be the eyes of a poisonous snake. A cold light flickered.

......

Because the New Year is approaching, the county town is gradually becoming lively, and the whole city seems to be exuding the aroma of food. Some children, running around on the street, bumping into pedestrians, others are not angry, this is not to celebrate the New Year, the picture is a fun.

Fang Hong and A Gui didn't know much about buying New Year's goods or anything, but fortunately, with Zhao's shopkeeper here, they sent a few guys to send the New Year's goods early.

As for Fang Juncai, this old boy wants to sit in the position of the shopkeeper, and runs around with the shopkeeper Zhao all day long, people treat him as a master, and it is not easy to command him to do this and that, so he has to give him a little easy work to kill time.

"Hey, hey. Fang Hong was directing those guys to put away the New Year's goods, but he heard a babbling sound from the door, and when he looked up, he saw that the girl was holding a wooden plate, and she was struggling to cross the threshold at this time.

"Nannan, why are you here?" Fang Hong hurriedly stepped forward to support her, this child is not good at walking, it is really embarrassing for her to cross such a high threshold with a plate.

"My mother made jujube flowers, let me give some to my brother. Nan Nan lifted the plate in her hand and sent it to Fang Hong.

During the Chinese New Year here, almost every family has to steam jujube flowers, that is, the dough is kneaded into the shape of flowers, and then decorated with pitted dried jujubes, and put them in a steamer to steam.

The steamed jujube dough is soft and elastic, and the dried jujube is stimulated by the steam, and one by one it also swells, and it is sweet and chewy in the mouth, which is the best delicacy.

Many people will steam a lot of jujube flowers at one time, and they eat them almost every day in those days of the New Year. Some people like to put it back in the pot and steam it again, and the taste changes little to the point. And some people like to cook and eat in the pot, dripping a little sesame oil, which also has a different taste.

This jujube flower is obviously just out of the pot, and it is still steaming, and there is a sweet fragrance coming to the nose when it smells. The dough is kneaded into a three-petaled flower, and each petal is inlaid with a red date, which is very attractive to look at.

Fang Hong was not polite, even when he grabbed a jujube flower and threw it into his mouth. Take a bite, the dough rolls in the mouth, bite hard, the red dates are bitten together with the dough, hot, sweet, wheat, these feelings are intertwined, eat in the mouth of the warm baking, sweet silky, very appetizing.

He ate several in a row, and threw another one to Agui, Agui was not polite, and immediately stood aside and chewed it, and after a while, the jujube flowers sent were eaten by the two.

Huang Wang's kung fu in making jujube flowers is still quite skillful, and the dough is beaten very strongly. Fang Hong was eating on the side, while Nan Nan was playing with Huang Pizi on the side. Huang Pizi lay on the ground impatiently, if Fang Hong hadn't given it an incense, it would have run away a long time ago.

Just kidding, there are so many dead and injured humans under its hands, how can it tolerate the teasing of a human child.

"Nannan, come here" After a while, Fang Hong beckoned to Nannan. Nan Nan let go of the yellow skin's ears, and then ran over with a jump.

Among the New Year's goods sent by Fang Hong from Zhao's shopkeeper, he casually opened a paper bag, which was wrapped with a piece of bacon and tied with a red rope. This piece of bacon is about more than a catty, and it is marinated beautifully, the meat is tight, and there are circles of texture.

"Come, bring this cured meat back, you invite me to eat jujube flowers, the cured meat is a return gift, this is called a gift exchange. Fang Hong grabbed the rope and slipped it into Nannan's hand.

Nan Nan didn't understand Fang Hong's words a little, but she still held the meat in her arms. Smelling a trace of the aroma of meat, she was reluctant to let go, it was rare to eat some meat at home, let alone this kind of cured meat.

These days, salt is more expensive than meat, and who is willing to use salt to marinate meat. She's grown so big that she hasn't eaten cured meat a few times.

"Go ahead, take the meat home. Fang Hong patted Nannan's little head, and Nannan jumped up and ran home. Their family didn't eat meat during the Chinese New Year this time, but now that they have meat to eat, they are so happy.

"Ah Gui, won't my dad come back for the New Year?" After sending the girl away, Fang Hong turned around and asked Ah Gui. He hadn't seen his dad for months, and he was really a little unaccustomed to it.

"The master's business in Fucheng is not finished yet, and he may not be able to come back, besides, this road is also quite chaotic, let's wait until it is more stable. Agui stood aside and replied.

"Also, I heard that there are bandits in various places, and this New Year's Day will not make people live in peace. Fang Hong felt that it was reasonable, it was rumored that there were more than a dozen nests of bandits near this Qian City, which made people panic, if Dad rushed back at this time, I was afraid that it would not be safe.

"Okay, let's not talk about that, let's continue to practice. Fang Hong asked people to move all the New Year's goods to the hall and vacate the yard. Anyway, this idle is also idle, and practicing the knife every day can also increase a little self-protection ability.

His ghost-headed knife was almost successfully tempered, and he really wanted to test the power of this knife. (To be continued.) )
