The game starts with escaping from the famine and flipping the table
Chapter 485 Liangzhou Specialty Snacks
At dawn, the sky gradually turned pale, as if a huge canvas was gently unveiled, revealing the mysterious and charming colors.
At this quiet moment, a wisp of purple air slowly rises, like a flowing ribbon, floating in from the eastern sky. This purple air permeates the air, like a layer of gauze, casting a mysterious veil over the whole world. Its color is deep and rich, with a light purple tone, as if it is the auspicious air drifting out from the fairyland. Against the backdrop of the purple air, the surrounding environment becomes particularly peaceful and beautiful.
In the distance, the mountains outside Liangzhou City were looming under the cover of purple air, as if they were a group of shy fairies covering their faces with purple gauze. The trees in the mountains were also stained by the purple air, becoming more lush and full of vitality. The birds in the forest seemed to feel the auspiciousness of the purple air, singing happily, adding a bit of vitality and energy to the new day.
Purple air coming from the east not only brings good wishes to people, but also fills the whole world with hope and vitality. In this magical scene, Su Xiaoya clearly feels the power and warmth of nature.
“Is this the purple air?”
Su Xiaoya exclaimed excitedly and turned her gaze to look at Yu Shuheng.
Well!
This rich dark green!
The deep green is like an ocean of life, full of endless vitality and vigor. Its color is rich and deep, like a lush forest, exuding the breath of nature. Every trace of green is like a beating pulse, conveying the power of life.
But, the east is associated with wood, which is green!
Su Xiaoya finished her training and looked at Yu Shuheng in confusion. Was it because Yu Shuheng was an evergreen tree?
She stared at the deep green light, as if she could feel the life energy flowing in it. It was a powerful and warm force that made people feel awe. It seemed to symbolize eternal life and everlasting vitality.
Su Xiaoya was attracted by the deep green breath of life. She seemed to be in a world full of vitality, and everything around her became fresh. She could feel the breeze brushing her face, bringing fresh air; she could hear the rustling of leaves, as if telling the story of life.
This deep green breath of life made her even more curious about Yu Shuheng. Is this the vitality contained in trees?
Now, Su Xiaoya is even more curious about the art of looking at qi. She just wants to practice it to perfection as soon as possible, explore its mysteries, and understand what kind of surprises this mysterious power can bring her.
However, wouldn't Yu Shuheng's unique background and abilities be hidden from the cultivators who practiced the art of seeing qi?
How can we hide this unique deep green light?
For a moment, Su Xiaoya was extremely conflicted.
Yu Shuheng saw that Su Xiaoya was smiling brightly when she turned around. Anyone could see the brightness on Su Xiaoya's face. But why did she frown and raise her eyebrows when she looked at him, looking extremely worried?
This is, what's going on?
Yu Shuheng waited for a while, but Su Xiaoya still didn't speak. Yu Shuheng didn't want to wait any longer, so he asked directly:
"What's wrong, little girl?"
"What?"
Su Xiaoya's thoughts were interrupted and she was still a little slow to react, so she asked back subconsciously.
"I mean, what's wrong with you? Have you thought of something troublesome?"
"Oh, nothing. It's just that your whole body is filled with a strong dark green aura. Wouldn't it mean that any monk who has learned the art of aura reading can discover your origin?"
When Yu Shuheng heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then his mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a look of not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He couldn't help but feel a warm current in his heart. It turned out that Su Xiaoya was worried about him! However, this feeling of being cared for was really good.
"That's the truth. But have you forgotten my cultivation level? I'm in the Mahayana stage, the combat power ceiling of Qingyuan Star." Yu Shuheng said confidently.
Su Xiaoya suddenly became embarrassed. She blinked, scratched her head, and laughed a little embarrassedly. Oh, how could I forget such an important thing? Yu Shuheng is a powerful man in the Mahayana period. With him by my side, what is there to worry about? Isn't this the real version of worrying about nothing? Thinking of this, Su Xiaoya couldn't help but find it a little funny.
"But you are amazing. You learned it in just one night."
"That's right. Don't you see who I am?"
Su Xiaoya was instantly proud. If she had a little tail, it would have flown up to the sky long ago.
Yu Shuheng did not attack Su Xiaoya, but just brought up the serious matter first.
"By the way, how do you think Situ Haoyue will be dealt with? Should we just arrest him?"
When it comes to business, Su Xiaoya immediately becomes serious.
"Have you found out?"
"Yes! There are only three cultivators in Liangzhou City, Situ Haoyue and two other young boys who have just broken through the first stage of Qi Refining."
"Then catch him!"
"Um!""
"In that case, why not just arrest Prince Ning as well and let Patriarch Xianyu take over Liangzhou City directly."
"Well, then, let's meet with the head of the Xianyu family first. King Ning's army must be dealt with."
"That's true. It's good to liberate Liangzhou peacefully."
As the two talked, they couldn't help but come up with the modern term "peaceful liberation".
However, it is indeed worth learning from.
The two simply left Lingyun Pavilion. The consumption in Lingyun Hall was too expensive. They only stayed there for half an afternoon and one night, but they spent 2000 taels of silver, which was almost like robbery.
Even though Su Xiaoya is worth a lot of money, she doesn't want to be a sucker.
The two returned to the inn, washed up simply, and went to the inn lobby to have breakfast.
At this moment, there were not many guests in the lobby, only three or four tables sitting scattered around.
The lobby on the first floor of the inn is quite spacious, with about twenty or thirty tables.
Maybe it was still early, and there were only four tables of guests sitting there.
A father and daughter sat at a table. The father had a kind face and looked at his daughter with loving eyes. The father was wearing a blue cloth gown, which was simple but clean and tidy. His face was a little thin, and his forehead and eyes were covered with fine wrinkles, which were all traces left by the years. But the gentleness and kindness revealed in his eyes seemed to be able to embrace everything in the world.
Three muscular men were sitting at a table. They were talking loudly and laughing from time to time. All three men were strong and muscular. One of them had a face full of flesh and a hideous scar, which made people afraid. Another was bald, with a tattoo of a dragon with bared fangs and claws on his shiny head, which made him look ferocious. The last man was relatively quiet, but the tattoo on his arm and the fierce look on his face made people dare not provoke him easily.
A master and a servant were sitting at a table. The master looked gentle and refined, while the servant sat respectfully below him. The master was dressed in a moon-white gown with fluttering sleeves, like an immortal descending from the earth. He had a handsome face, sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, and a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, giving people a gentle and elegant feeling. The servant was dressed in a gray shorts, was thin, and always had a humble smile on his face.
Sitting at a table was a clerk in his thirties or forties, dressed in fancy clothes and with an arrogant look. His face was thickly powdered, pale as a zombie. His eyes were narrow and long, revealing a cunning and mean look. His lips were painted scarlet, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if he was full of disdain for everything around him, making people feel uncomfortable just by looking at him.
These four tables of people formed a unique picture, making the entire restaurant full of a sense of story.
Yu Shuheng and Su Xiaoya directly chose a table by the window and ordered a bowl of beef ramen in clear soup, Tianshui Guagua and hand-pulled mutton. These are all Liangzhou specialties, so they naturally wanted to taste them.
The first thing served was a bowl of steaming clear beef ramen. The rich beef soup base exuded an alluring aroma, like a delicacy from heaven, making people salivate.
Yu Shuheng and Su Xiaoya both like Lanzhou ramen, so after ordering the noodles, they couldn’t help but let go and “learn” from the chef so that they could make it themselves and satisfy their cravings.
The ramen chef is like an artist, he skillfully stretches and kneads the dough, each movement is full of skills and strength. In his hands, the noodles become uniform in thickness, as delicate as silver threads, and taste smooth and chewy when eaten, which is intoxicating.
Yu Shuheng and Su Xiaoya looked at the tender beef slices in the bowl. They lay quietly in the bowl, exuding a charming meaty aroma. They swallowed their saliva and started eating. They took a bite and found the meat tender and juicy with a mellow taste.
Well, it seems that something is missing.
Yu Shuheng and Su Xiaoya looked at each other and realized what was missing: coriander!
The soul of Lanzhou ramen!
Yu Shuheng called the waiter over and told him his request. The waiter was quite efficient and quickly brought over a plate of chopped green onions, a plate of chopped coriander, and a plate of bright red chili peppers.
Yu Shuheng and Su Xiaoya looked at each other, and each sprinkled some green onions, coriander and chili peppers on their own beef ramen, making the bowl of ramen even more perfect.
The fresh fragrance of chopped green onions, the unique flavor of coriander and the irresistible unique taste of chili oil blend together, making you unable to stop.
One bite, refreshing!
Two bites, so refreshing!
After three bites, it's so refreshing!
The second dish is Tianshui Guagua. This dish has a very unique taste and is famous for its fragrance, spiciness, softness and tenderness.
Its production process is also very particular: first, you need to select high-quality buckwheat flour to make the raw material called "Qiaozhenzi"; then soak it in water and process it carefully to extract the starch for later use. Next, add an appropriate amount of starch to the pot, add clean water and simmer slowly over low heat. As time goes by, a thick layer of golden and bright, delicate and soft guagua will gradually form in the pot. At this time, you need to quickly take out the guagua and put it in a basin, cover it with a lid and let it recover naturally for later use. When the guagua is completely cooled and recovered, it can be enjoyed directly.
When tasting, you can add various seasonings according to your personal taste, such as chili oil, sesame paste, mustard, soy sauce, salt, vinegar, and mashed garlic to enhance the flavor and taste, making the taste more delicious and memorable.
“Is this Tianshui Guagua?”
The customers at the table next to them saw that Yu Shuheng and Su Xiaoya were obviously also gourmets, so they immediately gave them some "science":
"Is this your first time in Liangzhou? Tianshui Guagua is known as the best food in Liangzhou."
"It is said that during the late Western Han Dynasty 5,000 years ago, the mother of King Wei Xiang, who ruled the Tianshui area, the Queen Mother of Shuoning, had a special liking for guagua. She even had to taste it every three days, otherwise she felt that something was missing from her life!"
Yu Shuheng and Su Xiaoya looked at each other. Qingyuan Star also has the Western Han Dynasty?
Five thousand years?
Does this coincide with Blue Star?
Su Xiaoya just felt that too many legends of Qingyuan Star overlapped with those of Blue Star.
Is it really just a coincidence?
Yu Shuheng was also confused. He didn't know what the historical process of this 100,000-year-old Qingyuan Star was.
The diners at the opposite table continued to popularize science:
"For this reason, Guagua has naturally become a delicacy in the imperial court and is highly favored and respected."
"However, the good times did not last long. Later, Wei Xiang was defeated in a war with others and fled to the land of Western Shu in a panic. The chef who once cooked Guagua for the royal family took the opportunity to escape from the palace and came to Tianshui City under an assumed name. He rented a shop here and continued his Guagua business. Due to his exquisite craftsmanship and authentic taste, he soon became famous and attracted many diners to patronize and support him. From then on, a new legendary story of Tianshui Guagua began..."
While the diner was talking nonstop about the dish, the waiter had already brought the third dish.
The third dish is lamb meat rolls, which are famous for their fragrant noodles, tender meat, delicious taste and rich nutrition. The lamb meat is chopped into pieces, stir-fried with clear oil, supplemented with scallion segments, garlic slices, dried peppers, ginger powder, pepper powder, salt and other condiments, and stewed with water until 80% cooked. The kneaded noodles are rolled into thin pancakes, coated with clear oil, rolled into a cylinder, cut into inch pieces, and placed on the meat. Stew until the noodles are cooked and the meat is tender.
The lamb rolls have the delicious taste of lamb and the authentic chewiness of Hexi's high-quality flour, which complement each other. It not only reflects the boldness of hand-pulled lamb, but also fully demonstrates the exquisiteness of Hexi pasta.
There were many frustrations when the mutton rolls were first invented. The initial production of mutton rolls actually began with the "slaughtering of lambs" in winter and spring every year.
Why kill the lamb?
It turns out that every year when winter turns to spring, it is the peak season for sheep to breed. At this time, thousands of cute lambs will appear on the grassland. However, due to the limited area of grassland, in order to graze more effectively and protect grassland resources, people have to slaughter some lambs in a planned and proportional manner according to the requirements of the grassland's carrying capacity of livestock to maintain the ecological balance of the grassland pasture.
This is undoubtedly a helpless move forced by reality. The lambs that are slaughtered are often smaller than rabbits, which makes people feel sorry. However, their fur has a unique use. It can be stretched and used to make exquisite lamb skins in the future. As for their tender and delicious meat, the herders cleverly use it to create a delicious dish by stewing it - mutton pad rolls.
Unexpectedly, this dish, which was originally made to suit local conditions, has become famous and has become a local delicacy. The key lies in the use of lamb. Compared with adult lamb, lamb is more tender, tastes fresh, and has no smell of mutton. This also explains why lamb must be used to cook mutton rolls to achieve the best flavor.
The two were very satisfied with this special snack. They not only tasted the unique flavor of Liangzhou cuisine, but also felt the cultural charm of this city.
Su Xiaoya's idea of traveling around Qingyuan Star became more determined. She believed that there would be more surprises and discoveries waiting for her. She believed that in this mysterious world of Qingyuan Star, there were still many unknowns waiting for her to explore.
