Chapter Seventy-Seven: Do It Yourself
Looking at the black and mushy pheasant roasted in his hand, Ximenqing was very helpless, it seemed that he was going to be hungry tonight. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info casually touched his waist, but he was shocked, and the wine gourd was gone! Ximen Qing thought for a while, and then remembered that he handed the wine gourd to Mu Hongyi during the day.
It is estimated that Brother Mu would have thrown it away a long time ago. Ximenqing sighed: "This meat is not eaten, and the wine is gone, it is really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and the boat was late and encountered a head wind." ”
Li Kui was very hungry, approached Ximenqing, and said: "It's not my iron cow's style to be hungry like this, it's better for me to catch another one and let Pang Meizi help us roast it!"
After listening to Li Kui's suggestion, Ximen Qing slapped his forehead and thought: Yes, why do you only care about your face and compete with a pheasant? Your face can't be eaten as food! No matter what you and Tie Niu said, they also saved Pang Qiuxia's life, and gave her the scar-removing magic medicine 'Bingqing Shengjisan', and it was not a matter of a sentence to let her help barbecue~
In the end, Ximenqing made a high-sounding excuse for not knowing how to barbecue and cooking: Didn't Mencius say that "a gentleman cooks far away"!
In Mencius, "Liang Hui Wang Zhangzhu I" says: "A gentleman can not bear to see the life of a beast and cannot bear to see its death; when he hears its voice, he cannot bear to eat its flesh." It is a gentleman who cooks far away. It means: When a gentleman sees an animal ready to be slaughtered, he sees it alive and cannot bear to see it die, and when he hears its cry before he dies, he cannot bear to eat its flesh. So gentlemen stay away from the kitchen!
It's not about a gentleman not working in the kitchen at all.
"Don't bother! I've come up with a way to barbecue the meat after much thought. Ximenqing interrupted Li Kui's thoughts and assured him: "This time it will definitely work!"
Ximenqing deliberately said this sentence loudly, his voice was very loud, echoing in the mill, and his purpose was to let Mu Hongyi and the three of them hear it.
What kind of person is Ximenqing? He is a man who wants to save face! Although he is willing to let Pang Qiuxia barbecue for him, how can he say it to his face? He said this precisely because he wanted to get away with it.
"Okay, I'll believe you again. Li Kui replied, and stood up, ready to go outside to find some game.
At this moment, Mu Hongyi threw over the branch that left most of the rabbit meat in his hand. Ximen Qing sat facing Mu Hongyi and them, he was overjoyed when he saw it, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to catch it, and gave Mu Hongyi a thumbs up, and thanked: "Brother Mu still feels sorry for our pair of difficult brothers." ”
Ximen Qing sat in the direction of Mu Hongyi, of course, because he could see the two beauties when he looked up. At this angle, he happened to see one side of Mu Lanzhi's cheek (the side without the birthmark). Because she often wears a scarf on weekdays, her face has always been slightly pale, but at this time, under the light of the fire, it also looks ruddy. In her dark eyes, two small flames were reflected.
Mu Hongyi bowed slightly, did not answer, and continued to turn around and chat with Mu Lanzhi and Pang Qiuxia.
Li Kui saw it, and took advantage of Ximenqing's inattention, so he directly grabbed the rabbit meat and ate it in a big gulp.
I don't know how Li Kui practiced kung fu in his hands, his hand came very suddenly, and even Ximenqing didn't see the movement clearly, and the rabbit meat fell into his hands. Ximenqing smiled bitterly: Yes, my brother might as well be a friend who has met a few times!
Li Kui ate sweetly, chewed heavily, and made a "rattling" sound from time to time, but he even chewed the bones one by one and swallowed them into his stomach.
Ximenqing covered his eyes speechlessly, thinking: 'I don't know him!' and then stood up, carrying the roasted pheasant, wanting to leave the mill and go to the woods to be quiet and quiet~
"Hey, Brother Simon, give me your pheasant. It was Mu Lanzhi who spoke, although when they first met, they had no good impression of Ximenqing, but after a long period of contact, they couldn't tell how they felt about him, especially when they saw him fighting to get injured and repel the masked warriors today......
Now seeing that he had not eaten and was about to step out of the mill in a gloomy manner, Mu Lanzhi's heartstrings fluctuated slightly, so he stopped him. She didn't notice that her address to Ximen Qing had been changed to 'Brother Ximen'~
If Mu Lanzhi knew that Ximen Qing left because she didn't want to see Li Kui eating, I don't know if she would think that she was worried about him and did something more.
Ximen Qing was stunned, although Mu Lanzhi's tone was still cold, but the words still revealed the kindness that a girl should have.
And then. ”
agreed, and Ximen Qing gently threw the pheasant to Mu Lanzhi. He did not approach their campfire, but turned away from the mill.
Taking the pheasant, Mu Lanzhi pulled out the dagger tied to her leg and carefully removed the roasted chicken. The charred skin is only the outside, and the inside of the pheasant is still intact. She also learned to cook at home, so this knife skill is still remarkable. After the culling was clean, she put the pheasant back on the fire and slowly flipped the grill.
Although this is the first time to roast a pheasant, Mu Lanzhi Bingxue is smart, she has seen Pang Qiuxia's demonstration just now, and she is guiding by the side, so Mu Lanzhi roasted it in a decent and unambiguous manner.
Her barbecue is naturally very different from Ximenqing, only to see the tongue of fire, the branches gently flipped, and after a while, a vague aroma gradually drifted away.
Not only Mu Hongyi and Pang Qiuxia, but even Li Kui, who was sitting in the distance eating rabbit meat, also watched Mu Lanzhi's every move. Under the light of the fire, her fair and delicate face slightly reflected the pink brilliance, making her delicate and elegant demeanor with a hint of coquettishness~
All of a sudden, there was a sudden silence in the mill.
After a short time, Ximenqing came back with a large ball of mud and a bundle of dry branches. The mud was the size of a watermelon, but it was noticeably heavier than a watermelon. Since it had just rained during the day, it took Ximen Qing a lot of time to collect dry branches.
Mo Hongyi, Li Kui and the others all looked at the mud in his hand with curious eyes, not knowing what this was for.
"I said, Brother Ximen, what are you doing when you come back with a ball of mud?" Li Kui couldn't bear it at first, and asked, "Aren't you faint from hunger? This mud is absolutely uneatable!"
Ximenqing glared at him angrily: "Can you eat it, we'll see in a while!"
So Ximenqing threw most of the dry branches into the fire and raised the bonfire high. Then he carefully baked the mud in the fire.
After finishing all this, Ximen Qingcai sat by the bonfire to keep warm, silently counting while admiring the beautiful figure of Mu Lanzhi on the other side.
Li Kui had already finished eating the half of the rabbit meat at this time, he wiped the oil on his mouth, stared at a pair of big eyes, and stared at the pheasant in Mu Lanzhi's hand unsatisfied, obviously not full!
