Chapter Eighty-Three: What Do We Eat?
On September 8, 47XX in the Yanhuang calendar, in order to rescue a team of martial arts apprentices who were lost in the 100,000 mountains, Wang Tong and five people came to the Guixi Autonomous Region, and the rescue process was very smooth, more than 30 martial arts personnel were all rescued, and the children waved goodbye to Wang Tong and others.
Special Soldier Gai Chengye's mobile phone received a text message, opened it and looked at it and said that it was sent by his sister Gai Lianhan, and the text message said: I can't get through to call you, my father is seriously ill, I received a text message, and I will return quickly.
Gai Chengye's smile disappeared, he frowned, and his comrade-in-arms Bai Minghui saw the word "seriously ill" from the side and said, "Old Gai, who in your family is seriously ill?"
Gai Chengye said: "No, let's continue to complete the task!"
Bai Minghui snatched the phone, opened the text message, and said, "Look at your sad face, your father is sick, please take leave to go back and have a look?"
Wang Tong asked, "Uncle, what's wrong?"
Gai Chengye said: "My sister said that he was seriously ill and asked me to go back and take a look, but we are rescuing the apprentices of the martial arts hall and can't leave." ”
Wang Daodao: "You said that your hometown is from Yulin, not far from here. We brought in helicopters, it didn't take much time to go back once, and it was not too late to carry out the mission again. ”
Gai Chengye said: "How can that be good? Because of my personal affairs, I will delay everyone's time. ”
Wang Tong said: "We are comrades-in-arms, and your family is our family." There is no hurry to save the apprentices, let them be trained with more blood and fire, maybe it will be good for their future development!" Then a message and signal were sent, and the plane at the logistics base in the western Guizhou region flew over, and several people climbed onto the plane, and soon came to Yulin, where they jumped off the plane in an open place.
The five of them got into two "taxis" and rushed to Gai Chengye's house, a U-shaped two-story building with white walls and a flat roof, a second floor of corner stairs that rose above a house, and red tiles.
Gai Lianhan heard the movement, walked out, threw herself into Gai Chengye's arms, and cried, "Brother, you are finally back." The doctor said that my father said that he had stomach cancer, and after the operation, after half a month in the hospital, there was no improvement. Dad said that it was too expensive to spend money in the hospital and that he had to go home to recuperate. Recently, I have been vomiting blood, losing my appetite, and I have lost a lot. ”
Gai Chengye wiped away his sister's tears with his hands and said, "You have also lost weight, I am not at home, I have worked hard for you! Don't cry, my face is crying, let's go in and have a look! Go and wash your face and make a cup of tea for a few brothers and sisters." ”
Gai Lianhan secretly glanced at Wang Tong and the others, turned his head and ran to the kitchen with a red face.
Wang Tong and the others walked into the second room on the right side of the hall house, and a strong smell of medicine came, and there was a white-haired old man with a yellow face and thin muscles and dull eyes lying on the old-fashioned wooden bed.
Gai Chengye said: "Dad, my comrades-in-arms and I have come to see you." ”
Gai Zheng's eyes lit up and he said, "It's good to come back! Chengye is such a big person, why are you crying, and you are not afraid of the jokes of your colleagues? Why are you all carrying weapons, are you on a mission? Come back to see what I am doing? I'm fine, I'm much better after the operation." Hurry back to your mission. Don't let me delay your business!"
Wang Tong said: "Uncle Gai, we just finished a mission, and we had a period of recuperation, and I heard that you were sick, so I stopped by to visit you." I won't be delayed!I came in a hurry, I didn't bring a gift, please forgive me. I wish you a speedy recovery!"
Gai Zheng said, "Your heart is the best gift! Chengye, this kid, doesn't know how to be polite, and he won't pour you a cup of tea!"
Gai Chengye said: "I told my sister to go and pour it." Brother Wang, Miss Qiao, Miss Gu, Minghui, go to the hall and sit down. ”
Wang Tong and the others nodded in agreement and walked out, leaving their father and son to say something considerate.
Wang Tong and the others picked up the tea bowl on the table of the Eight Immortals and said to Gai Lianhan, "Thank you, Little Sister Gai." ”
Gai Lianhan pursed her lips and smiled, walked into Gai Zheng's bedroom, and asked Gai Chengye softly: "Brother, the two sisters are very beautiful, which one is your girlfriend?"
Qiao Shuxin and Gu Wanyun, who were chatting in the hall, couldn't help but prick up their ears, and looked at each other with strange faces, sometimes they would be a little embarrassed if their hearing was too good!
Gai Chengye said: "Shhhhh ”
Gai Lianhan said: "Then you have to come on! The building near the water will get the moon first, and if you muster your strength, maybe you will be able to hold the beauty!"
Gai Chengye said: "We are too far apart, one is in the sky and the other is underground, that is impossible. They are legendary martial arts masters, and I am an ordinary soldier. ”
Gai Zheng said: "Chengye, you are not too young, you have to hurry up about marriage, otherwise you will miss the opportunity and it will be difficult to find a wife." ”
Gai Chengye said, "Okay. Dad, I'm not looking for one. ”
Gai Zheng said: "You have to hurry, it's hard to find after forty-one, they are all divorced from two marriages, you are in your thirties, you have to hurry!"
Gai Chengye said: "Okay! Dad, recuperate with peace of mind, I'll bring you a girlfriend back next year!"
Gai Zheng smiled: "If you want to talk about it, it counts! I have been waiting for this day, but I have been waiting for a long time." ”
Gai Chengye said: "I must do my best!"
Gai Zheng said: "Okay! You go and entertain your comrades, I'll lie down and rest!"
Gai Chengye walked out and said, "I'm sorry, the hospitality is not good, there are only some inferior tea leaves at home." ”
Wang Tong said: "I was also born in the countryside, and your tea is not bad in the countryside." And what is polite to your comrades-in-arms, but I have heard that you even eat caterpillars and earthworms when you survive in the wild. ”
Gai Chengye said: "Seeing that lunch time is approaching, I will take you to eat local specialties!"
Wang Daodao: "'Yulin Dog Meat' is famous all over the country, and I have long wanted to eat it, but I have never had the opportunity. But before you eat, you go and pour a bowl of warm water. ”
Gai Chengye smiled happily, brought a bowl of warm boiled water, and said, "I didn't expect Brother Wang to be a fellow traveler! Let's go to the best "come back" restaurant for dog meat!"
Wang Tong took out an evil detoxification pill and put it in a bowl, and soon the pill dissolved, turning into a bowl of cyan transparent liquid, as beautiful as jade, exuding wisps of comfortable fragrance.
Wang Tong said: "This is an elixir, maybe it will help my uncle's illness! ”
Gai Chengye said: "Thank you, Brother Wang! This is too precious! I really don't know how to repay you!"
Wang Daodao: "It's worthless to practice by yourself, go and feed your uncle to drink!"
Gai Chengye said, "Thank you, Brother Wang!" Then he went into the room to feed Gai Zheng to drink, poured some warm boiled water and shook it a few times, and then Feed Gai Zheng drank it and walked out.
Wang Daodao: "Call your little sister and aunt!"
Gai Chengye said: "My mother is doing farm work, I don't know when I will come back, just bring some food back to my parents when the time comes." Little sister, let's go out to dinner together!"
Gai Lianhan said: "I'll stay at home and take care of my father!"
Gai Zheng said: "I don't need to be taken care of, don't live up to your brother's wishes." ”
Gai Lianhan said, "Okay. Dad, I'll bring you some delicious food later. ”
A group of six people came to the "Come Back to the Restaurant", which is a roadside food stall, more than 30 tables, there are 28 tables of diners are eating, Gai Chengye found a relatively clean one to sit down, and said: "Uncle Zhong, come to a braised dog meat, a yellow stewed dog meat, a dog meat hot pot, a spicy dog meat, a sand bowl dog meat, a tea-flavored dog meat, a pot of dog miscellaneous bone soup, a green pepper back to the pot meat, a fish-flavored eggplant, a vinegared cabbage, an oyster sauce lettuce, a cold tofu shredded, a clear fried bean sprouts." ”
A middle-aged uncle wearing a chef's hat came over and said, "Xiao Gai, I haven't seen you for a long time!
Gai Chengye said, "Okay. Uncle Zhong, I'm bringing a friend to take care of your business, so I must show your best skills!"
The middle-aged uncle said: "That's certain, I will personally make it for you, I will definitely make you satisfied, and I want to come next time!
Gai Chengye said: "Uncle Zhong, you go and get busy!"
The middle-aged uncle turned around and went to the kitchen, and after a while, the waiter Xiaomei came up to set up the dishes, chopsticks, drinks, spices, and pour tea.
Qiao Shuxin said, "It's the first time I've eaten dog meat, I don't know how it tastes?"
Gai Chengye's face was full of memories, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "The dog meat is rolling three times, and the immortals can't stand steadily." It's delicious, you'll know it once you've eaten it. ”
Wang Channel: "In the Tang Dynasty medical scientist Meng Xu's "Dietary Therapy Materia Medica", it is said that 'dog meat replenishes five labors and seven injuries, benefits yang, nourishes blood and veins, thickens the stomach and intestines, and fills the essence'. Li Shizhen of the Ming Dynasty said in the "Compendium of Materia Medica" that dog meat 'can soothe the five organs, light the body, benefit qi, strengthen the kidneys, warm the waist and knees, strengthen the strength, replenish the five tuberculosis and seven wounds, and make up for the five tuberculosis and seven injuries, and the real coke'.
Modern Chinese medicine also believes that dog meat is warm, can replenish the middle and nourish the qi, warm the kidneys and help yang. Dog meat is not only delicious, but also nutritious, low in fat and cholesterol. ”
Gai Chengye said: "It's a pity that eating dog meat now will be hindered by some brainless people." As soon as they saw the eating of dog meat, countless people who claimed to be 'dog lovers' were filled with righteous indignation, violently smashed them, and blocked and obstructed them!
Modern society is running faster and faster, and people are becoming more and more distant. Some people are withdrawn by nature, afraid of loneliness, afraid of the dark. There are also some people who have been hit hard in their work and life. They have lost faith in society and humanity, and have retreated into dark corners in search of their spiritual sustenance and psychological comfort.
Dogs are well-behaved and cute, suitable for social and urban breeding, so some people regard dogs as spiritual sustenance, as their 'children', their 'companions', and some of them are even better for dogs than their own parents and parents!
Cows are also well-behaved and cute, helping humans to farm and transport, but they are not suitable for urban rearing, so people eat beef, steak, and feed dogs cow bones. ”
Bai Minghui said: "Those 'dog lovers' are unreasonable, bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, what we eat is our freedom." Why didn't they go to the Hui people and say that they would not eat beef? The current Han people are domesticated too gently, and if you don't care about it and don't want to make trouble, you will be regarded as weak by others, so when you encounter this situation, you have to beat them hard until they are afraid. ”
Wang Tong said: "Except for a small number of dogs, most dogs are parasites that live on humans. What is terrible is not that there are parasites in the body, but that they are also parasitized mentally! The more indifferent and shameless people are, the easier it is to be parasitized! The fact that so many people are bitten to death by dogs every year is proof of the indifference of people's hearts. There are so many children with blood loss, the disabled, the poor, the elderly, and the terminally ill in my country, how can I not see the love of 'dog lovers', I don't love my own kind, and I brazenly say that I have love, I feel disgusted when I look at that kind of person!"
Gu Wanyun said: "Some 'dog lovers' and 'animal protectors' have ulterior motives, the global pet market is trillions of cakes every year, the pet industry chain, more extensive than you think, there are several pet food listed companies in China, making a lot of money." If no dog (animal) bites a person, how can the rabies (other) vaccine be sold? No dog (animal) is sick? What is the use of dog medicine (poultry and veterinary medicine)? Pets have interests in food, clothing, housing, transportation, illness, and care, and 'dog lovers' and 'animal protectors' have interests behind them. ”
Uncle Zhong brought the yellow stewed dog meat and said, "That's a good point! It's just that we ordinary people are suffering, abiding by the law, doing business well, and wanting to pass on the ancestral craftsmanship." We have always had the tradition of eating dog meat in ancient times, and Fan Xu, the great general of the Han Dynasty, was born to buy dogs! Who knew that those lawless people were unreasonable and did not allow them to eat dog meat, and even maliciously hurt people. The shopkeeper in front of us, who quit the business after being injured last time. Everyone, use it lightly!"
Gai Chengye said: "Brother Wang, Miss Qiao, Miss Gu, Minghui, please!
Wang Tong put a piece of yellow stewed dog meat in his mouth, chewed it twice, and said: "It's delicious! No wonder so many people love to eat it! It's soft and greasy, fragrant, nourishing and pleasant! After taking a bite, I feel warm in my stomach, very comfortable, just like the warm sun in winter!"
