Chapter 257: Five Meat and Three Disgusts (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
"Brother Lin, is this the capital, it's so beautiful!"
Through the car glass, the head of the Sanqian Xiaodao has changed into a set of clothes worn by ordinary children, a handsome little face is attached to the glass, looking at the traffic outside, the two eyes are a little insufficient!
The chief of the mountain heavy road sitting on the side is a posture of looking at the nose, nose and mouth, and mouth and heart, with lowered eyes, sitting there steadily!
This time, as the guardian of the three main road chiefs, the mountain heavy road chief followed him to the capital.
Lin Mu stretched out his hand and touched Sanqian's head, and said with a smile, "I'm hungry, how about taking you to eat roast duck later?" ”
When Sanqian heard the word roast duck, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he took his eyes back from the outside of the car, looking at Lin Mu, his head clicked quickly!
There was also a person sitting in the car, it was the assistant director sent by the CCTV program team to contact the two, and when he heard this, he asked with some hesitation, "Mr. Lin, can their Taoist priests eat meat?" ”
Hearing this, Lin Mu couldn't help but show a smile!
Yamazhong Daoist looked up at the assistant director helplessly, and said with a serious face, "This layman, we can't help but eat together except during the Jiao Festival!" ”
When the assistant director heard this, he also nodded with a smile on his face!
Although Taoism is a local sect in China, in the minds of the common people, it is not as deeply rooted in the hearts of the people as a foreign sect!
And the precept that monks can't eat meat seems to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people!
Lin Mu smiled slightly and said, "Director Zhang, in fact, our Taoism has never been forbidden to eat meat, even if it is Buddhism, only our Han Buddhism does not allow eating meat, and monks in other countries do not have this rule!" ”
Deputy Director Zhang's eyes widened, and he said with a look of surprise, "Ah, is it only Buddhism in our country that does not allow eating meat, I thought that monks all over the world were like this!" ”
Lin Mu shook his head and said, "Director Zhang, you can imagine that when Buddhism was in its earliest days, it didn't have its current status, and Buddhists only had two things on weekdays, begging for food and hearing the Dharma. ”
"Every morning, everybody, including the Buddha, went from the countryside to the towns with bowls to beg for food, and they did this all morning, and it was stipulated that whether they had food or not, they should rush back to the settlement by noon, and then everyone would divide the food equally!"
"In the afternoon, everyone has to follow the Buddha to learn the Dharma, and there is no time to go out and beg for food, so there is a Buddhist saying that you don't eat at noon!"
Director Zhang's face also showed a sudden expression, and even the mountain chief couldn't help but look at Lin Mu!
Sanqian stared at his big eyes and looked at Lin Mu with curiosity, he was also very surprised that Lin Mu could know so much Buddhist knowledge!
Lin Mu said with a smile, "Think about it, in such a difficult situation, the food and clothing of Buddhists are a big problem, and it is even more impossible to pick fat and thin for food. ”
"There is another point that many people are easy to confuse now, that is, the word 'meat'."
"Meaty?"
Director Zhang scratched his head a little dazedly and said, "Doesn't meat mean meat?" ”
Hearing this, Lin Mu, Shanzhong, and Sanqian all shook their heads at the same time.
Sanqian said seriously, "This layman, meat is two words, one is meat, the other is fishy, meat refers to vegetables with a pungent smell, and fishy refers to chicken, duck and fish." ”
"Our Taoists have five meat and three disgusting sayings from ancient times to the present, leek, garlic, Yuntai, coriander, and shallots are five meats, and three disgusting refers to the three kinds of meat that Taoism taboos, namely geese, dogs, and mullets!"
Seeing that Sanqian said that the head was the way, Lin Mu bowed his head slightly and said, "That's right, and these five meat and three disgusts are particularly clear in our famous book "Journey to the West", Director Zhang, guess what it is?" ”
Director Zhang was stunned for a moment, five meat and three disgusted, "Journey to the West"?
This Director Zhang is also a talented and agile person, his eyes rolled, he slapped his thigh, and said, "It shouldn't be Zhu Bajie!" ”
Lin Mu laughed and said, "That's right, it's the origin of the name of Zhu Bajie, these five meat and three disgusts are actually the taboo of 'fasting' that our ancient Confucians and Taoists have always admired!" ”
Director Zhang asked curiously, "Then what is the reason for this taboo?" ”
Lin Mu looked at Sanqian, and at this time, Sanqian scratched his head with an embarrassed face and said, "Master said it, but I forgot, hehe!" ”
Yamashige on the side also showed a smile!
Lin Mu said with a smile, "The so-called five meats, such as the onions, ginger and garlic that we often eat now, because these things have a strong taste, for the ancients, this kind of vegetables with a strange taste are all born of the unhealthy qi of heaven and earth, which will harm people's internal organs, so don't eat five meats!" ”
"Actually, I think it's because there was no good way to clean the mouth back then, so this kind of vegetable that can make people's mouths smell very repulsive to the nobles at that time, after all, when you talk to others, your mouth smells weird, which affects your identity too much!"
"Just like now, many people must pay attention to oral hygiene before attending formal occasions, eat a garlic before getting married, and they won't be able to get married!"
Lin Mu's words caused everyone to laugh, and even Shan Chong, who had always been quiet, couldn't help but upturn the corners of his mouth slightly!
"There are also the so-called three hates, referring to geese, dogs, mullets, wild geese in ancient times as an indispensable gift in the six ceremonies of marriage, representing love, because the wild goose has only one partner in his life, no matter where the other half goes, they must be inseparable, and one party suffers miserably, then the other party will definitely die of depression and will not live alone, so the wild goose can not eat!"
"Dogs, as the most loyal animals, Taoism is also forbidden to eat, as well as mullet, because the mullet is blind after giving birth, and the young fish have a heart, swim into the mother's mouth, and satisfy the mother's hunger, so the mullet is a representative of 'filial piety' and cannot be eaten!"
"In the Zhengyi, there is another kind of animal meat that cannot be eaten, Sanqian, do you know?"
Lin Mu looked at San Qian, who was looking at him with adoring eyes!
Hearing Lin Mu's question, Sanqian said confidently, "Of course I know, in our Zhengyi, the ancestor Zhang Tianshi once stipulated the 'four don't eat', in addition to the three just now, there is one more cow!" ”
Lin Mu touched Sangan's head, Sanqian suddenly showed a comfortable expression, and the corner of Shanzhong's mouth twitched slightly, his uncle hates others touching his head the most on weekdays, and he can't even be in charge, this Lin Mu is really an exception!
Director Zhang said abruptly, "I know this, because the mounts of the Sanqing in "Romance of the Gods" are all cows, so Taoists don't eat beef, right?" ”
When Sanqian heard this, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, what is "Romance of the Gods"?
The head of the mountain heavy road twitched slightly, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, okay, this is to read myths and stories as history!
Lin Mu smiled slightly and said, "Well, what Director Zhang said is reasonable, but this is only one of the reasons, and the other reason is that the cattle have worked hard all their lives, conscientious, and do not want to return, so they can't eat it!" ”
"And these four, the dog represents loyalty, the mullet represents filial piety, the wild goose represents the festival, and the cow represents righteousness, which is also a manifestation of the loyalty and filial piety of the Chinese nation!"
After hearing this, Sanqian couldn't help but slap Lin Mu, and even a trace of respect flashed in Shanzhong's eyes when he looked at Lin Mu!
……
Quanjude!
The roast duck in the capital is divided into two kinds, one is Quanjude, and the other is the cheap shop!
Quanjude is a roast duck in the oven, and the cheap shop is a roast duck in the oven, which one is more delicious, then it is naturally a matter of opinion!
As for Lin Mu, he has eaten both Quanjude and Cheap Fang, but for the roast duck in the oven, Lin Mu still feels unblessed.
When he came to the box that had been booked in advance, Lin Muqian gave in, but he was still pushed to the main position by Director Zhang, and Sanqian sat beside him with an excited face.
The manager of Quanjude also knew who the people in this box were for a long time, so the speed of serving the food was fast!
Less than ten minutes after sitting down, the table was already full of dishes, and a chef walked in with a roast duck, which was to be noodles for duck!
Sanqian stretched his neck and looked at the knife in his master's hand curiously, Lin Mu said with a smile, "If you want to see it, go over and see it!" ”
Saying that, Lin Mu took Sangan's hand and came to the master of the duck!
This master is in his fifties, wearing a mask, and he can't see his appearance, but his hands are very stable!
Being watched by everyone, the master didn't care at all, picked up a piece of duck's knife, pressed the duck with one hand, and the knife in his right hand gently rotated, and a piece of duck meat the size of a lilac leaf with belt meat fell on the plate on the side!
"Good knife work!"
Shan Chong's eyes lit up on the side, he didn't expect this master of the duck to have such a skilled knife work!
Hearing the praise, the manager standing on the side said solemnly, "Mr. Lin, distinguished guests, this Master Xue is our master of Quanjude, since he was more than ten years old, he has been specializing in slicing duck meat, for more than 30 years, this kung fu is already perfect!" ”
Lin Mu was also shocked, he didn't see that this master had been making ducks for more than 30 years, no wonder Lin Mu was dazzled by this knife worker!
[Cooking - Xue Family Knife Work - One Hundred and Eight Chops (Grandmaster Level)]
A colorful attribute ball emerged from this Master Xue's body, and after Lin Mu quickly absorbed it, he found that a set of knife techniques specially used to slice ducks appeared in his mind!
This time, Lin Mu looked at Master Xue's knife work again, and he could see the mystery!
As if it was a cow, in the eyes of Master Xue and Lin Mu, this duck seemed to have been divided into one hundred and eight pieces, and Master Xue just cut out the one hundred and eight pieces!
Without him, only the hand is familiar!
Soon, the roast duck was sliced into one hundred and eight slices, each slice with the belt meat, evenly placed on a plate, and served on the table!
"Come on, come on, everyone's moving fast!"
Director Zhang stretched out his hand and stretched out!
Lin Mu very skillfully rolled a roll of duck meat, put cucumber strips in it, did not put shredded green onions, and handed it to Sanqian next to him.
San Qian squinted his eyes and said, "Thank you, Brother Lin!" ”
Then, Sanqian opened his small mouth and ate this roll of duck meat in one bite.
"It's delicious!"
Sanqian swore that he had never eaten such a delicious thing in his life!
Shan Zhong on the side also rolled a duck roll with his own hands, and ate it slowly, although he didn't speak, but watching him roll another one quickly, it means that the taste is still good!
After seeing everyone start eating, the manager also said goodbye and left!
Lin Mu also rolled one by himself, and after taking a bite, he couldn't help but look at Director Zhang and said, "When I came to eat last time, it didn't taste so good!" ”
Director Zhang showed a meaningful expression and said, "That must be when Mr. Lin hasn't become famous yet, right?" ”
Lin Mu nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, the last time I came to eat, it was when I was in school." ”
Director Zhang said softly, "It's human nature to watch people put dishes on the plate, if you hadn't come today, this master with more than 30 years of knife work would not have been invited!" ”
Lin Mu also nodded, there are some things that can be seen through and not said.
"Sanqian, come, try this fish-flavored shrimp ball!"
Lin Mu sandwiched a quick fish-flavored shrimp ball and put it in the bowl of Sanqian, this kind of sweet and sour thing, children like to eat the most!
Sanqian ate a mouth full of oil, and when he picked up the kuaizi, the fish-flavored shrimp balls in the bowl disappeared in his mouth!
"Wow, it's delicious!"
Sanqian immediately liked this dish.
Lin Mu was chatting with Director Zhang, and felt that his arm was being pulled, and when he looked back, Sanqian said with an embarrassed face, "Brother Lin, can you have another roast duck?" ”
Lin Mu was stunned and glanced at the roast duck plate on the table, it was already clean!
I've only eaten two rolls, why are they gone!
The head of the mountain heavy road who was sitting on the side showed a trace of unnaturalness on his face!
Most of the roast duck has already entered his stomach!
Lin Mu laughed and said, "Are you still afraid of a big-bellied man who opens a restaurant, you can eat as much as you want today, as long as you don't hold on!" ”
Director Zhang also hurriedly called the waiter and asked him to add another roast duck!
After a while, the manager walked in with Master Xue again!
Seeing that Master Xue was about to use the knife, Lin Mu's eyes flashed, he stood up with a smile, and said, "Master Xue, why don't I try this roast duck!" ”
The knife in Master Xue's hand paused slightly, and he frowned slightly and looked at Lin Mu who came over!
The manager on the side also showed a hint of embarrassment, this Master Xue is the treasure of Quanjude's town store, and he usually doesn't come out to slice ducks at all!
"Well-Mr. Lin, this is not good, the duck fat is coaxing, and it doesn't look good on you, you just sit there and watch our Master Xue serve you!"
The manager hurriedly said with a smiling face!
Lin Mu rolled up his sleeves and said with a smile, "It's okay, I just watched Master Xue's knife work just now, and I also have a little itchy hands, what's the matter, don't you Quanjude still let customers slice ducks by themselves?" ”
The manager can't help but slander in his heart, isn't this nonsense, whose restaurant can you see to let you go to the back kitchen to fry a dish yourself, of course, the work of this duck is for us to come in person, the duck from the customer's piece, the taste must not be compared with the well-trained master on his side, the taste is not good, this is not a smashing signboard!
However, seeing Lin Mu's unyielding appearance, the manager could only look at Master Xue with a wry smile!
Master Xue naturally also knows Lin Mu, a star who is now popular with half the sky!
Originally, I still liked Lin Mu a lot, and I thought that after Lin Mu finished eating, I would ask for an autograph and go back to surprise my little granddaughter, but at this moment, Master Xue's senses for Lin Mu became bad!
"Okay, but if the duck meat doesn't taste good, you can't say it's our problem!"
Master Xue said very strongly!
The manager on the side could only play a round and say, "Mr. Lin just try it, after all, this is also a delicate physical work, let's not be tired after eating, right?" ”
Lin Mu put on disposable gloves and picked up Master Xue's knife, his wrist shook slightly, the knife turned around in the palm of his hand as if it was alive, and Sanqian couldn't help but applaud!
The manager was frightened by this scene, and he knew the sharpness of this knife, if it cut Lin Mu's hand, the consequences would ......
The manager felt a little weak in his legs!
"Master Xue, please give me some advice!"
Lin Mu smiled slightly, the knife in his hand appeared on the duck meat, and in a flash of white light, a piece of duck meat the size of a lilac leaf appeared on the plate next to him!
Let's try it soon, everyone. 】
For a while, everyone in the entire room looked at Lin Mu with a shocked expression!
