59 years after its opening, people are still in Nanluoguxiang.

After putting the stag weighing more than 200 pounds into the space, Chen Feng began to return along the original route.

When we were one-third of the way there, the sky suddenly darkened. I looked at the sky for a whole day and saw a black cloud that had occupied the sky without me noticing when.

"It won't rain, right?"

Feeling the temperature drop, he suspected it was going to snow.

I raised my wrist and looked at my watch. It was already past 12 o'clock.

I found a cave nearby and picked up some dry firewood to prepare lunch.

The venison was not touched, but the legendary "cooking of crane" began.

Just like before, we first picked the fattest one, a "big fat guy" weighing almost nine kilograms. After processing the feathers, internal organs, head, etc., we smeared and stuffed it with seasonings, then wrapped it in lotus leaves and coated it with a layer of yellow mud.

The reason why we use the beggar's chicken method is that it can preserve the deliciousness of the meat to the greatest extent.

According to Sha Zhu, white crane meat is the best.

When Chen Feng and Lai Fu started eating, hail and snow began to fall from the sky. Countless white dots fell from the sky, hitting the leaves and grass, making them crackle.

"I forgot to bring an umbrella. I'll buy one next time."

Chen Feng ate a crane leg leisurely, admiring the scenery of snow in Yanshan Mountain.

He left one third to Lai Fu and sealed the rest in space.

Meat tastes best when it is cooked for the first time. The taste will deteriorate when it is heated a second time. One important reason for this is that the moisture in the meat is lost, causing the meat to become tough.

Sealing can effectively avoid this situation.

After waiting for an hour, the wind and snow outside did not decrease but increased instead.

Chen Feng held Lai Fu in his arms, and snowflakes fell from the sky.

He could actually open the space door and place it above his head, but he didn't.

Because he was not going into the mountains to look for prey, the deer were already in his grasp, so he deliberately slowed down his pace. By the time he got down the mountain, it was already past five in the afternoon.

He took out his bicycle and rushed towards the city. When the road came into the countryside, he stuffed the unfortunate old deer into a sack and tied it to the crossbar of the bicycle.

When we returned to the city gate, we found that Wu Yulong and his team were still "dedicatedly" sweeping the snow.

Considering that he was already off work, he went straight back to the compound.

"Grandpa, big brother is back, big brother is back!"

Seeing Chen Feng approaching on his bicycle, Chen Hao and Chen Li, who were guarding the door, cheered continuously.

Chen Feng stopped the car at the door.

"Why are you standing at the door? It's snowing heavily. Aren't you afraid of the cold?"

Chen Feng lifted the front of the car, Chen Hao took the initiative to push the rear of the car, and Chen Li shouted "Come on" on the side.

"Brother, we are afraid that you will spend the night in the mountains."

He pushed the bicycle over the threshold and into the yard. Several people came out of the room and he found that Niu Gengshen, Ye Jin and Director Wang were all there.

"Finally you're back. You have no idea how worried your mother was. If you hadn't come back, I would have had to mobilize the people to go up the mountain to look for you."

Director Wang explained why she was there.

"I've already told you women like to fantasize. Chen Feng is bold and careful, so nothing will happen for sure." Ye Jin said confidently.

His family lives in the Changbai Mountain area, and he grew up in the mountains. He firmly believes that nothing will happen to Chen Feng.

On the contrary, Zhou Qing was not that confident.

The old man came over and brushed the snow off his head and shoulders.

Chen Jianjun silently picked up the bag, but found that he couldn't hold it.

"Old Ye, give Jianjun a hand." Niu Gengshen said to Ye Jin with a smile.

"What are you doing?" Ye Jin asked with a sidelong glance, "You are also a little girl, standing aside and cheering for us?"

"I'm a scholar and I don't have any strength." Niu Gengshen said shamelessly as he spread out his hands.

"Ugh!" Ye Jin pretended to be ready to rip out the black tiger's heart.

Niu Gengshen dodged quickly.

"No, I'll do it myself." Chen Feng said with a smile.

Chen Hao held the cart, Chen Jianjun held the sack, and Chen Feng untied the rope, and they carried the sack to the main room together.

"Grandma, bring some clean buckets and basins."

Chen Hao pushed his bicycle into the kitchen, then ran to the main room. He and Chen Li squatted on the ground on either side, watching Chen Feng drag the buck out of the bag.

"deer!"

Niu Gengshen, Ye Jin, Director Wang, the old man, and Chen Jianjun couldn't help but exclaim together, especially Niu Gengshen, whose eyes were wide open.

Deer are not wild boars.

This kind of wild animal generally lives in the deepest part of Yanshan Mountain, unlike wild boars which are found everywhere.

But this thing is also a really good thing, and has always been very popular among the powerful and wealthy in Beijing.

Director Wang, the old man, and Chen Jianjun couldn't help but frown.

Only Chen Hao and Chen Li didn't understand anything and curiously reached out to touch the deer antlers.

"Yes, when I went into the mountains to look for prey, I happened to come across this old deer that had been separated from the herd. If it hadn't taken me so long to find it, I would have returned in the afternoon."

Director Wang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's good that you didn't go into the deep mountains. You are still young and don't know the dangers of deep mountains. Don't go into the deep forest alone."

Chen Feng nodded.

"I know that once the mountain road is gone, we can't move forward."

"Uncle Niu, Uncle Ye, venison is very nutritious. It can nourish the blood of the elderly and strengthen the bones of children. I can only sell you a quarter of it. I will give the rest of the meat to grandpa, grandma, and my younger brothers and sisters."

"Ah, a quarter is too little."

Niu Gengshen still wants to get more.

The old lady came in with a clean wooden bucket and basin, and was stunned when she saw the deer antlers.

"Did you encounter a sika deer?"

"Ah."

Xiao Shenfeng began to work along the small cut, and Chen Feng peeled the skin skillfully.

"I'm going to kill the deer, you guys get out."

"Brother, let me take a look, I'm not afraid." Chen Hao pleaded.

"I'm not afraid of a big pot!" Chen Li also said.

"Go out even if you're not afraid." The old lady forcibly took her second grandson and little granddaughter to the kitchen to prevent them from seeing such a bloody scene.

Niu Gengshen winked at Ye Jin, but Ye Jin smiled and said nothing.

If it were him, he wouldn't sell even a pound of meat, let alone a quarter.

This stag weighs more than 200 pounds, but it is not enough to be shared among the families.

There is no way around it. Eating deer has always been advocated in Chinese culture.

A pure yang fairy beast!

What a fame!

Starting from Hua Tuo, famous doctors of all dynasties have recommended eating deer.

The promotion of famous doctors has raised the status of venison in food culture, making it no less important than abalone from aquatic animals and ginseng from plants.

During the Shang, Zhou, Qin and Han dynasties, the numerous deer herds in the Central Plains had been eaten up by the powerful and wealthy in successive dynasties, and this animal was only found in the deep mountains and forests of Yanshan and the Northeast.

In order to fight the Huns and make money, Emperor Wu of Han killed the cute white deer raised in the Emperor's Garden, took the deer skin and made "white deer coins".

As for the venison, Lao Liu could only eat it with tears in his eyes.

(A square foot of white deer hide, with a woven edge, can be used to offer a jade disc, and can be replaced by one catty of gold. According to the Han Dynasty law, a square foot of deer hide is worth one catty of gold.)

Then he processed the internal organs and handed them over to the old man.

"Compendium of Materia Medica" records that deer antler, deer horn, deer antler glue, deer antler frost, deer blood, deer brain, deer tail, deer kidney, deer tendon, deer fat, deer meat, deer head meat, deer bones, deer teeth, deer marrow, etc. can all be used as medicine. They have extremely high medicinal value and health care effects, and can prevent and treat many diseases.

“A deer’s body is full of treasures” is not an exaggeration!
