At this time, the two of them felt hungry and thirsty, and they were also covered in stinky sweat, Shi Xiu smiled: "Brother Dai, this magic technique is really wonderful, in a blink of an eye, I have arrived in Jizhou, the last time I left from here to Heze Mansion I walked for more than a month, but there is a bird hungry in this stomach, let's find a place to eat some wine and rest for the night, let's go to find Brother Yang Xiong tomorrow." ” Dai Zong naturally has no objection, people are iron rice and steel, and they are hungry and panicked if they don't eat a meal, not to mention that they just ate a few mouthfuls of pancakes and fruits in the morning, and they have already been consumed after running all day, he recited a spell lightly, and the two of them immediately stood firmly like sticks, and then he gently tore off the four armor horses on the two of them, burned them all, and put all the ashes in a small pocket and hid them.
Shi Xiu was naturally curious when he saw Dai Zong's mysterious actions, but he didn't ask, this is what he is calmer than Liu Tang, Li Kui and others, he knows when to speak by himself, when not to, and what to say and what not to say, Dai Zong is not from his side after all, it is better not to ask.
After doing all this, Dai Zong stood up, and seemed to be very satisfied with Shi Xiu's silence, and the two walked side by side towards the city.
Jizhou is also a prefecture-level town, under the leadership of Yuyang, Sanhe, Yutian three counties and twenty-one villages, although not very large but located in the center of Yanzhou, so it is also very prosperous, especially here from the thousand-year-old temple Shaolin Temple is only a few dozen miles away, more antique.
Shi Xiu had lived here for more than half a year, so he was very familiar with this place, he took Dai Zong left and right, and soon came to a small alley, only to see a row of small shops here, all kinds of meat skewers and meat steaks were grilled on the iron rack, and the smoke was swirling, and the sound of oil was bubbling, although it was not how luxurious it was, but it was extremely appetizing.
After Shi Xiu found a spacious stool and sat down, he shouted skillfully: "Xiao Er, come ten kidneys, ten pairs of chicken wings, ten Yellow River small grilled fish, fifty skewers of beef and mutton, two hind legs of sheep, in addition to a jar of Yellow River Laojiao wine, four side dishes for wine, twenty big meat steamed buns to yellow beef, buffalo meat is not delicious, Malier's is on it." ” It turned out that Shi Xiu often came here to fight tooth sacrifices when he was tired or hungry when he was living here, but at that time, he was shy in his pocket, so he could only order seven or eight skewers of meat and three or five glasses of wine to quench his hunger I have to say that Shi Xiu is really a simple teenager, a child from a poor family, and calling a skewer to eat is like a happy New Year, which makes the Jiangzhou Liangyuan Festival level adults who have eaten and played on the side can't help but laugh secretly in their hearts, but they feel that Shi Xiu is even closer.
This is also a common problem of those smart people in the officialdom, they are because of their flexible minds, as if they can see through the intricate relationships of everything in the world, and they are also impatient with the relationship between people who calculate each other, so they have to deal with the same kind of people in addition to work reasons, they usually prefer to deal with those direct or even rough people, which is why Dai Zong will have a very good relationship with Li Kui, while Yang Xiong likes to help Du Xing Shiqian and others, because he doesn't need to be vigilant everywhere when getting along with them, It doesn't take a lot of effort.
That Xiao Er did not slack off when he saw Shi Xiu's majestic appearance, and the people in the market have their own outlook on life, although they are full of flattery on their faces for those officials and rich people, but they often despise and disgust in their hearts, and many chefs also deliberately and quietly make things for officials very dirty But for these people who suffer like them, they are naturally close, you don't see that they often shout at these low-level peddlers and pawns, and they are constantly rude, but they rarely give them a shortage of pounds or dirty things, it is not easy for everyone, and naturally we must understand each other.
So soon Shi Xiu's things came up one after another, Xiao Er used a big plate to make a plate of things they wanted, and sifted down two large wine bowls, poured them full and said that the guest officer used it slowly, if there was anything needed, just tell the villain to leave, this is the lively time, the guests are full, each of them is eager to be used as two people, naturally can't care about staying at each table for too long.
Shi Xiu didn't care, waved his hand to signal him to take care of himself, picked up a roasted golden and bright leg of mutton and handed it to Dai Zongdao: "Brother, try this leg of mutton, this is a specialty of this store, it can be regarded as roasted, and I am not afraid of my brother's jokes, the younger brother only dared to order a few skewers of meat skewers to try before, this leg of mutton is five hundred wen a piece, but I never dare to touch it, the last time I ate it seems to be when Brother Yang Xiong invited a treat, hehe." ” Dai Zong also laughed when he heard this, he rarely came to this kind of street shop to eat and drink, and he didn't have a good impression of this kind of rough diet, but he couldn't bear to brush Shi Xiu's kindness, so he took the leg of mutton and took a bite, so as not to make Shi Xiu's face look bad.
In fact, he originally meant to eat and drink here at will, and then find a better hotel to live in and cook a good meal, but after taking a bite of this mutton, he felt fragrant and tender, and it slipped directly from his mouth into his throat, leaving only a fragrance.
Dai Zong was taken aback, he naturally didn't eat less mutton before, big plates, small pots, fried and stewed, but he had never tasted such a fragrant and fresh taste, he hurriedly took another bite, this time he didn't dare to swallow the dates, but chewed carefully in his mouth, slowly tasted, his expression suddenly became very enjoyable, squinting his eyes and shaking his head slightly.
Shi Xiu also felt funny when he saw Dai Zong's appearance, and diligently handed over a plate of ingredients: "Brother, you can dip this material and try it again." ” Dai Zong didn't dare to underestimate this mutton this time, according to the words, he scooped some of the yellow powder with a spoon and poured it on the leg of mutton, and then took a bite and was surprised, this seasoning is mixed with spicy, fragrant, stimulating and other feelings, with the tender and refreshing taste of the mutton, it has a different flavor, and it seems to have more refreshing than the previous empty mouth.
Dai Zong hurriedly asked, "Brother, what is this, why have I never tasted it?"
Shi Xiu said with a smile: "My brother was born in the land of fish and rice in Jiangzhou, and he is an official person, so he is naturally not familiar with our rural food, this seasoning is called cumin, which is passed down from the Persian Hu people, plus salted pepper and pepper powder together, it is the most refreshing to eat with barbecue, but brother, you are too unpleasant to eat like this, this is the real way to eat." ” The third watch, late but not absent:
