Datang First Chef

Chapter 101

It was by chance that Tang Xuanzang joined the southbound team.

Since Zhenguan returned to Beijing in 19 years, his life has been extremely fulfilling. When he retreats, he translates scriptures in the Chang'an temple, and when he advances, he sweeps away demons from all directions, and restores the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty to the Qingming Dynasty.In addition, he often accepts invitations from other monks to preach Buddhism in other temples. There are many believers, and there are an endless stream of people who come to listen to his lectures.

Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie were also in a panic, often staying in Chang'an City with nothing to do. Tang Xuanzang couldn't see their leisurely behavior, so he ordered them to follow and punish the monsters that caused harm to the world. After a long time, no monsters dared to go out and make trouble.

Tang Xuanzang: It is very good to combine work with rest.

Don't think that the master has a handsome face of abstinence, but he really has a heart to save all sentient beings. Seeing that there are many believers in the Tang Dynasty, Sanskrit sounds can be heard everywhere, and the people live in peace, he also wants to feel relieved and plunge into Buddhism. .How did he know that the wandering monk who had made friends with him came back from the south and lamented that the wild land was far from the inland. Set up camp there and do harm to one side.

Xuanzang raised his eyebrows when he heard this, his expression didn't change much, but his voice became cold, from a pool of clear spring water to a three-foot-frozen stream.

"They all fled to Annan?"

"No wonder I haven't heard of any evildoers recently."

The monk was beside him, feeling a little cold, he couldn't help turning his head to look at Xuanzang, not sure if it was the cold wind blowing, or the murderous intent, he thought about it: "Since we have fled to Annan, we can't restrain them."

Master Xuanzang's voice came from behind: "That's not necessarily true."

Monk: "..."

"The mage means..."

Tang Xuanzang smiled and said nothing.

Isn't it just going to Annan thousands of miles to hunt down?

If you can go to Tianzhu, is Annan still far away?

……

After hearing the reason for Master Xuanzang's trip from Sun Wukong, Mo Wenyuan looked at him with eyes full of admiration. He used to respect Master Xuanzang a lot, let alone now, he knew what he was sighing just by looking at his eyes.

Mo Wenyuan: Master Xuanzang is a real man!

Master Xuanzang invited him to join, and the sage Li Zhi would not disagree, so he agreed immediately. Therefore, the staffing of the envoy team is very fascinating.

But what Mo Wenyuan didn't expect was that before he left, he saw someone he knew and joined the team.

A tall and strong man with bronzed skin greeted him. His physique was like a Greek sculpture. He was fit and full of strength. When his forearm was bent, he could even see long strips of muscle. Shennong said: "Mo Dalang, long time no see." .”

Mo Wenyuan was also very surprised to see this person, he said: "Brother Lianshan, why are you here?" In the daily address of the Tang Dynasty, he was more used to calling others "so-and-so Lang", but this person is different, when he first met Then he said, "Just call him Lianshan", and said that Lian was not his surname.

Datang is a country with mixed ethnic groups. If you go far, there are even black-skinned Kunlun slaves here. Mo Wenyuan thought that Lianshan was a minority, so he called him by his full name according to his meaning.

He remembered that Lianshan and Huikong should study the usage of dandelion glue together, hey, I haven't seen each other for a few months and I don't know how far their research has progressed.

After thinking about it, Mo Wenyuan's thoughts began to diverge, and he immediately shook his head to get those weird thoughts out of his mind.

Shennong answered Mo Wenyuan's last question: "I only have a little understanding of Luban's techniques. What I really study is farming. I have studied for many years in order to find high-yield grains. Now I heard that Champa has the rice that I dream of. I'm going."

Mo Wenyuan nodded and accepted his statement, but he was also thinking in his heart: I really don't know what kind of status Shen Nong is, and the royal mission can add it if he wants to.

But he just thought about it and didn't say anything.

Sun Wukong, who knew everything, stood aside, rubbed his chin with his fingers, and pulled the hair on his chin from time to time: "This is the first time I have seen such a team." Shi, it's amazing.

……

It was a long journey from Chang'an to Annan, and Mo Wenyuan and others were not merchants who could leave at any time. The Emperor's family relied on them, so it was natural that they had to plan carefully before going on the road.

Li Sanniang, who was far away in Liangzhou City, rushed back quickly, just to see off her son. The so-called "the thread in the hands of a loving mother and the clothes on the wandering son" is something that mothers have.

Li Sanniang's clothing making skills are not very good, and after years of traveling from place to place, she doesn't have much time to help her son make clothes, so her skills are unfamiliar. At this time, she is checking the goods in the inventory, and sees what she needs to give to her son. Take something with you.

Mo Wenyuan followed her. He was tall and handsome, but he looked like a child in front of the beautiful A Niang.Li Sanniang looked around with her beautiful eyes, and saw that she and her son were the only ones, so she lowered her voice and said, "You -- what happened to that?"

Before Mo Wenyuan could respond, he asked, "What's the matter?"

Li Sanniang said: "It's about the person you like."

Mo Wenyuan said: "Ah, he, he came to Chang'an with me."

Li Sanniang's eyes widened, and she came to Chang'an. Could it be different from what he thought, not a fairy in the sky, but a woman in the world?

Or is it that the fairies in the sky also descended with him?

No matter which one she is not optimistic about, according to the former, the emotions of young men and women are very hot, like a raging flame, as long as a little spark is given, it can set off a raging fire, but as long as there are no weeds on the grassland, it will be burned clean , the fire will naturally go out.

Seeing her son alone, she was very worried. Could it be that something happened to her sweetheart and she lost contact with her?The worst thing is that the beloved girl has married into a wife.

As for the latter, in the future, will she be held accountable by the Queen Mother like the Cowherd?

Seeing Li Sanniang's expression, Mo Wenyuan felt as if his heart was beating a drum, but he didn't dare to speak, or he really didn't know what to say, so he stumbled for a long time and said, "No, we haven't..."

Sanniang's eyes burst into a frightening light: "Then she?"

Mo Wenyuan's voice became quieter, he was very confused, like a lost traveler on the vast white sea, he could only see the boats in front of him, there were no islands in front of him, and he couldn't see the direction, and he couldn't figure out the clarity in his mind He could only follow Li Sanniang's words and answer truthfully or falsely: "Live near us."

Not only is it nearby, the sheep are leisurely basking in the sun in their backyard.

Most women, especially older women, have a hobby of being a matchmaker, and Li Sanniang is no exception, not to mention that this is not a matchmaking, but a lifelong event for her son.

Maybe it's not a lifelong event, but Mo Wenyuan has lived for more than twenty years, and as far as she knows, it's the first time she likes a woman.Li Sanniang thought, she originally thought that her son would spend his whole life with ingredients.

"Then can I go and see her?" Li Sanniang was rather anxious.

Mo Wenyuan said: "Look, Moyue is not very good." After thinking about it, he gave a hint, "He and A Niang think differently, and ordinary people may not be able to accept it."

He's going to be with the sheep!

None of them are human!

Li Sanniang's expression remained the same, she was still very steady, but countless thoughts crossed her mind, can't she accept it?There is nothing unacceptable about the status of a fairy. Is it a bad person or a lack of appearance?

Don't look at Mo Wenyuan as a gentle gentleman, but he still looks good and likes people who appreciate beauty. Of course, this is human nature, and there is nothing to blame.

Mo Wenyuan made up his mind and said: "When I come back from Zhancheng, I will bring him to you, A Niang."

After returning from Champa, wouldn't it be one or two years later, the world is changing and things are unpredictable, who knows that the girl will still be there in one or two years?You must know that it is not easy for a woman to survive in this world, and it is very possible to marry someone else during the waiting period.And the fairy in the sky, is she really willing to stay in the world for two years?

She had a lot of questions, but she kept them all hidden in her stomach and didn't say them out. She just nodded and said, "Aniang is waiting for you to come back."

……

Mo Wenyuan had Li Sanniang, and Big Black Sheep had Guanyin Bodhisattva, and at some point, the Bodhisattva became his father, and he would come to this person to discuss any troubles and problems that bothered him.

No, it's not so much a negotiation as a unilateral indoctrination. Occasionally, when being pierced by the magic sound, Guanyin Bodhisattva would think of a dish that Mo Wenyuan told him, called "stuffed duck".

Ducks generally don’t like to eat after more than 30 days. Only by artificially stuffing feed into their mouths can they grow bigger and fatter. No matter how much the ducks don’t want to eat or how they struggle, it’s of no use.

Bodhisattva: I feel like that duck.

Monk Huiyuan lay on his back on a hard bed. There were no summer reptiles in the clean room. The only thing that would disturb the monks’ sleep was the sultry wind. He cast a spell slightly, and the heat and cold were unclear, and the coolness surged around his body.

The sound of cicadas and frogs came from afar from the ridge of the field, and the soft moonlight slanted down on the bedside. It should be a beautiful night, quiet and comfortable, so that gods who don't need sleep can fully enjoy the rest. hapiness.

Until the moment when the big black sheep jumped in from the window, the tranquility of the room was broken.

"BAA Baa baa!"

"BAA Baa baa!"

The cry of the sheep was not whiny at all, it sounded like the drumbeat before the battle to the Bodhisattva, which made him anxious, and his words made the Bodhisattva even more sad.

Bodhisattva Bodhisattva!I suddenly discovered a big thing!

The sheep turned into a human form, walked up to the Bodhisattva, and squeezed out two skeins of cotton in his ears, which were in vain. They all knew that there were only two tangles of cotton, how to prevent the sound from pouring into the Bodhisattva's ears?

If he has the heart, even if the sheep speak at the gate of Daxingshan Temple, the Bodhisattva can hear it.

The cotton balls were pulled out, and Guanyin Bodhisattva could no longer pretend to be dead. He looked at the big black sheep with a cold eyebrow: his eyebrows were raised a little high, his eyes were slightly squinted, and his skin was reflected by the moonlight. He has become iron white, and the appearance of the incarnation of wisdom in the world is not very gentle and kind. He deliberately made this expression, and he even looks a bit mean.

Being mean has no effect on the sheep, he is still chattering, he can say whatever he wants, he can shield the face of the Bodhisattva, not to mention that there is a flame burning in his heart at this time, and his words are very posterity The smell of the Gatling machine gun, each word came out of the mouth flying up and down, and the Bodhisattva had no time to listen.

"I've been thinking about it for several days. In a few days, Mo Xiaoyuan and I will go on the road to the south. There are many people on the road and Master Xuanzang is there. We must be quiet, but my body is as hard as iron. In the past few days, it has returned to its original state, standing upright every day, seeing that the relationship between me and Xiaoyuan has been fixed, I really want to do the things in the book..."

Guanyin Bodhisattva couldn't bear it anymore, he interrupted the big black sheep: "Do you still care about Master Xuanzang?"

Taotie said: "Of course I care."

"He is a Buddhist. Mo Xiaoyuan has a lot of yearning for Master Xuanzang. I have been walking in the human world for many years, so of course I know if I can use this matter to be rude to him." Master Xuanzang is a master and a monk, let alone seeing him With the appearance of abstinence, the big black sheep felt that talking about sex in front of him was quite blasphemous.

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva's eyes were full of anger. He pointed to the sheep's nose and said, "You already know how to be considerate of Master Xuanzang, why don't you know how to be considerate of me!"

After the Bodhisattva had a fight with Sun Wukong last time, he regained the feeling of the bloody battle in the past. He was not compassionate. Dissatisfaction with harassing the Buddhist family.

"I'm also a monk, why did you tell me about this?" Discriminatory treatment? !

Taotie tilted his head and looked cute. The Bodhisattva asked aggrievedly, and he answered aggrievedly: "But you are different from Master Xuanzang, you are a monk who has become a monk halfway through!"

Guanyin:? ? ?

Do bodhisattvas who become monks halfway have no human rights?

The two confronted each other for a long time, and finally the Bodhisattva was defeated by the big black sheep and declared defeat. He collapsed on the bed, as if he had lost all energy, and said weakly: "How are you going to solve it?"

Taotie "Hey hey hey hey hey hey", he let out a series of low laughter, even though his voice was crisp and clear, Bodhisattva felt goose bumps all over his body when he heard it, he thought to himself: It's obviously a young man's voice, but he laughs like this , Such discord, hey, I don't know how he did it.

"If you can do it, of course you have to do the Longyang thing..."

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva half-opened his eyes, and there was a deep sense of helplessness in his eyes. He said, "Why don't you just talk to Mo Dalang directly." He pulled out the memory of his walking in the world from the depths of his mind, hey However, when he was a member of Cihangdao, he was pure-hearted and ascetic. Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, he would one day help people solve this scourge.

"The young man is so restless. If you tell him directly, maybe you won't refuse."

Taotie said: "Really?" He was skeptical, but the light in his eyes became brighter.

Guanyin Bodhisattva said: "It is true."

Taotie said: "Then how should I speak?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva: "Ah, why don't you find the book of Longyang and share it with him?"

Taotie said, "Thank you Bodhisattva." He paused and said, "Bodhisattva, you really understand."

Sure enough, it is not a decent fairy.

Guanyin:? ? ?

Who do you think did it? !

……

In the early morning of the next day, the sheep got up early, turned into a human form, and said to Mo Wenyuan: "Xiaoyuan Xiaoyuan, I have something to do today, I have to go out."

Mo Wenyuan was shocked when he heard the words. The two had known each other for many years, and the sheep had never left him in the morning. Things were abnormal, and he showed a worried look on his face: "What's the big deal?"

"No, nothing serious." Taotie is also a person who is not good at lying or making excuses. Seeing the anxious look on his brows, he showed timidity and stammered, but then he adjusted and said, "I'm just going out. Find something, don't worry."

After Mo Wenyuan heard it, he was suspicious: "Okay, go early and return early." He said, "Can I have breakfast before I go?"

"Eat, eat, eat, breakfast must be eaten."

As long as Mo Wenyuan is around, breakfast is very rich. He enjoys the leisure time of making various small snacks every morning. Whether it is making noodles or serving dishes, it can give him a sense of spiritual satisfaction.

What he made today was quicksand bags.Liushabao is a traditional famous dish in Guangdong. It is not only very common in Cantonese teahouses, but also can be bought at roadside steamed bun stalls. There are few sweet people who do not like Liushabao, especially milk yellow Liusha. Bao, sells very well, no matter what method is used to make it, it will not taste bad.

The noodles outside the buns are freshly kneaded, and the shop makes steamed buns every day. There is never a shortage of these, and Mo Wenyuan is also proficient in making them.

The most critical thing is where is the quicksand filling.The round, golden egg yolks were steamed on the pot, looking like bright little suns from a distance, exuding heat.

The egg yolks were put into the urn, and milk, sugar, etc. were added sequentially. Considering the taste of the sheep, Mo Wenyuan also added the chestnut puree of his own secret, and stirred it evenly with other fillings.

Chestnuts are inherently sweet, and they are very soft when bitten into the mouth. Whether they are mixed with goat’s milk or eaten with nothing to do, they are delicious. The fragrance is mellow and rich, and sweet——

The stuffing that has been stirred is wrapped into the dough, the tip of the bun is pointed, and the lower half is rolled away. When the steamer is opened, white smoke with a light noodle fragrance spreads around.

Taotie couldn't wait to take a quicksand bag.

The hand feeling of the bag is very good, the skin is full of elasticity and toughness, poking a finger, a small hole is sunken, and when the fingertip is removed, the small hole disappears again.

He opened his mouth so much that he could even see the small red throat. Most of the buns were gone in one bite, and the yellow stuffing flowed out at a slow speed as if he hadn't reacted. The next material was cleaned up.

The egg was mixed with sugar, it was solid and sweet, and there was an egg yolk flavor that he didn't know how to describe, like the core of a honey water cake, sweet and delicious.

The rustling taste captured his tongue in a very short time. The milky aroma of milk has been integrated into the egg yolk. The most wonderful thing is the invisible chestnut powder. It tastes sweet and warm, not bitter at all, and has a gentle taste. Softened the other fillings.

He devoured a basket of steamed stuffed buns, and ran out with the remaining big black sheep in one hand, eating as he walked. Mo Wenyuan watched from behind and laughed dumbfoundedly: "Like a child."

He couldn't help being curious, what was it that made the sheep so anxious?

……

The big black sheep is very smart and has a good memory. He doesn't often show his intelligence because he doesn't need to ask him to do so when he is with Mo Wenyuan.

As long as you eat delicious food every day, look for ingredients, and occasionally go for a stroll in the fields, your life will be beautiful.

Right now, the matter is very important, so his little brain is fully activated. He went to the bookstore with Mo Wenyuan before. I went to the largest and most comprehensive store.

Hey, if you want to come to that place, there are all books of knowledge, and there will be many books about Longyang.

The big black sheep was born noble, and after entering the door, the shopkeepers were all surprised, they all thought he was a prince, aristocrat, and high-ranking official.

If not, which family can raise such a handsome man with radiant eyes.

"What book do you want, Mr. Xiaolang?" The shopkeeper greeted kindly.

The big black sheep's eyes rolled around, Long Yang's book was not the right way, and the store would definitely not show it on the bright side, he said: "Can the shopkeeper take a step to speak?"

The shopkeeper's ears leaned closer, and the sheep's mouth moved to speak. The former smiled and said: "Of course there are, Xiao Lang, come with me." , I don't know who is cheaper.

The bookshelf is huge, and there are many compartments. Taotie walked with the shopkeeper, only to find that the internal roads are complicated, the corridors are full of twists and turns, and there is no way to find the way if you walk by yourself.

They rounded a corner and entered the innermost hut.

Only after Yang entered the gate did he realize that this place is unique. From the outside, it seems that there is only one pavilion, which is a very large area in the world.

"Your Majesty, take your time." The shopkeeper stretched out his hand and said, "Longyang, Jinlan, Yin-Yang Harmonization, and Secret Techniques in the room are displayed in order. If anyone likes them, tell me."

The eyes of the big black sheep are all wide open. He used to buy books with Mo Wenyuan. Where would there be such a pomp? The Longyang books in other places are probably packed in boxes, and there are only a few. How can it be like this bookshop? The collection is rich and the shelves are full of books.

"A good store, a good store!" He praised without reservation, "The abundance of books in the store is the number one in Chang'an City."

The shopkeeper said modestly, "It's a big deal."

Taotie was indulging in the ocean of knowledge, reading one by one, and finally selected a dozen books, and prepared to take them back to share with Mo Wenyuan.

Under the leadership of the shopkeeper, he opened the curtain and was about to leave, but unexpectedly, he met another guest outside the door, who was face to face with him, staring wide-eyed.

"Pig Wuneng?!"

"Glutton?!"

……

Zhu Bajie has been in a panic recently.

You said that the study of scriptures in the Western Paradise is over, and he should be able to go to heaven, and he can go to Gao Laozhuang no matter how bad he is.But whoever asked the stall to be a strict master would not allow it, and the old pig could only stay in the capital aggrieved.

Seeing that he was about to set foot on the southbound road again, and he didn't even have a comfortable life, he was a bit worthless, and wanted to have a final refreshment.

The gentle, pink and rouge are untouchable, the master has a good nose, and he knows it when he smells it. He can only find some pediatric substitutes, such as erotic pictures.

After inquiring for a long time, Zhu Bajie finally found out that a certain bookstore had a large collection of books, and he sneaked here early in the morning, so he didn't know that he had customers first.

Looking at Taotie for a long time, he smiled like a fellow Taoist and said, "You too?" Are you watching men and women for entertainment?

Who knew that Taotie would not buy it, raised his chin after hearing his words, and said condescendingly: "Who is with you!"

He is a mature glutton, and he is about to make a big splash with Mo Xiaoyuan in Fu Rong's tent. He is different from this shy pig who can only read picture books!

Zhu Bajie:? ? ?

They are all here to buy pornographic books, who is nobler than the other!
