Chapter 118 Food in Bonsai (Part 2)
The villagers of Kaoshan Village were very happy when they saw the monosodium glutamate falling from the sky.
“Oh my god, Grandpa Mountain God has given us another treasure.”
“Shen Xiang, what is this for? It sounds amazing.”
“I don’t know, but I can be sure that the thing given by Grandpa Mountain God must be an extraordinary treasure.”
“Nonsense, you don’t have to say it, the name of this thing is extraordinary. !”
“Looking at this name, it’s definitely not the saliva of a god.”
“Asshole, you just came back and don’t know the situation. Don’t talk nonsense. , which made Grandpa Mountain God displeased!"
"That's right, why don't you apologize to Grandpa Mountain God and ask for forgiveness?"
"That's right, I meant it literally. From what I’ve read, Grandpa Shan Shen shouldn’t be so stingy.”
"You bastard, you are so angry with me. Grandpa Mountain God is above me. I, the rebellious son, made a mistake with my words. It was really unintentional. I had no intention of offending Grandpa Mountain God. I also beg Grandpa Mountain God to atone for my sins."
Xu Bo'anpo I glanced at the people with interest and found that the person asking for atonement was an old man in the village who had been in the village these days.
The person who was unwilling to kneel down and confess was a man in his thirties. He was thin and not dressed like the rest of the village, who mainly wore round-neck coarse linen. Instead, he was wearing a shabby suit. robe.
Although the robe has been patched a lot, there are still a few holes in it. Coupled with the man's aloof expression, he looks really poor.
Xu Bo'an curiously asked Li Qingshi about this man and said, "Li Qingshi, who is the new man in a long gown?"
Li Qingshi was still busy on the mountain. The final work of the temple's repair was completed. Hearing this, he hurriedly replied: "As for Grandpa Mountain God, that is my cousin who has not yet entered the fifth server. His name is Li Qingjiang. He was originally studying in the school of Qingmu Mansion and his grades were pretty good.< br>
What is regrettable is that I have failed in exams for more than ten years. This does not mean that I am not good at school, but that every time I take an exam, I am either sick and delayed, or I am disgusted by other things.
Later. It seems that he was stimulated and injured his body in anger, and he can no longer continue his studies. I heard that he returned to the county school to be a tutor a few years ago, which was a job that could support his family.
I just talked to him yesterday. The aunts came back to visit relatives together. But he was not in good health, so he was not asked to come up to do these physical tasks."
Li Qingshi thought that Grandpa Shanshen wanted to blame his cousin for not coming to help repair Shanshen. Temple, so he immediately recounted his cousin's pitiful and tragic experience, and said a few good words for his cousin, hoping that Grandpa Mountain God would not blame him.
Xu Bo'an nodded slightly. He had no intention of getting to know this person, but everyone was in awe of Xu Bo'an. The sudden appearance of an alien would inevitably attract Xu Bo'an's attention.
When I heard Li Qingshi's introduction at this time, I realized that this guy was also a poor unlucky guy, and Xu Bo'an was even more embarrassed to be familiar with him.
When Xu Bo'an was in school, there were situations in the class where students were good at studying on weekdays, but when it came to exams, they failed repeatedly due to reasons such as nervousness, and the exams were complicated.
But it is unheard of and unheard of for this dear friend to be delayed due to problems right after taking the exam.
At this moment, many people have gathered around the stove, looking at the MSG on the chopping board, and talking about it.
What Xu Bo'an sees as a mere grain of MSG is only one or two millimeters square, but in the eyes of little people in the bonsai world, it is as big as a kumquat.
Therefore, these people can see clearly. There is no problem that there are too many people watching and the distance is too far to see the real thing.
“Hey, this thing is quite similar to ice cubes.”
“Yes, to be precise, it is somewhat similar to the ice cube sweets sold in the supermarket. . ”
“Hey, you haven’t seen it before. The fairy salt given by Grandpa Mountain God also looks like this.”
"Could it be that this is another kind of salt?"
"You can throw it away. I haven't heard Grandpa Shan Shen say that this thing is called Shenxiang. It must be very different."
"Whether it's ice cube sweets that look similar, or the salt from the fairy world that Grandpa God gave me, they are all seasonings. Could it be that this divine fragrance is also seasoning."
Xu Bo'an listened. At this point, I paid close attention.
Oh, this guy who can guess pretty well is actually that Li Qingjiang again. This guy has a pretty good mind, but seems to be a bit unlucky.
What Xu Boan didn't expect was that Li Qingjiang's statement was quickly rejected by the villagers.
The first person to deny it was Li Laosan, who was quite famous in the village.
"No, no, no, how could it be a seasoning? With such a noble name, it must be a medicinal material!"
"It makes sense, I think Third Master is right. Yes.”
“Yes, listen, Shen Xiang, just by its name, is a magical medicine that can bring the dead back to life.”
"I think the name is very similar to a spice, but for some reason, there is no fragrance. Do you need some way to stimulate its fragrance? Why don't you try heating it?"
"Don't be blind. I'm wondering, is there a possibility that this is a treasure that can be invulnerable to all poisons if eaten?"
"If you say so, I also think this thing is a magical weapon to ward off evil spirits. You haven't heard that black dog blood, rooster blood, etc. can ward off evil spirits. From this point of view, it is more convincing that the incense of divine saliva can ward off evil spirits. The chef was puzzled and studied more and more crookedly.
I feel a little regretful about the name "Shen Xiang" I decided on after much thought.
At first, I was just doing it for the sake of being high-ranking, but who knew that it would lead to such a ridiculous thing.
Xu Bo'an thought helplessly, don't let them guess any more. If they continue to guess, it will definitely become more and more outrageous.
Xu Bo'an immediately told Li Laosan alone: "Putting this in the food can enhance the aroma and taste, but it should be noted that the dosage must be controlled and put in a little at a time. It is more prudent. Do not use more than one mountain yellow wild fruit at a time. You can try it a few times to get familiar with it."
Hearing Xu Boan's words, Li Laosan was obviously stunned, and then looked at it subconsciously. Towards Li Qingjiang.
Unexpectedly, this guy guessed it right. Listening to the meaning of Grandpa Mountain God’s words, this thing is really a seasoning.
Seeing that the guys were still playing the guessing game enthusiastically, Li Laosan raised his hand and pressed it, saying: "Guys, stop guessing. Grandpa Mountain God told me that this thing is really seasoning."
As soon as Li Laosan's words came out, everyone in the venue fell silent, and they all turned their attention to Li Qingjiang.
Li Qingjiang has attracted the most attention over the years because of his bad luck and misfortune. He has already developed a very introverted character. At this time, when he saw everyone looking over him, he suddenly felt embarrassed and a little embarrassed. He was making small movements, and the unnatural and embarrassed expression on his face was clearly visible.
Li Laosan repeated what Xu Boan had just said in detail to the chefs on the side, and asked everyone to try to scrape off some MSG with a knife and add it to the soup pot beside him.
When it comes to fresh food testing, soup is naturally the most efficient.
Soon, Li Laosan stirred the soup a few times, carefully scooped out half a spoonful of soup, and poured it into the bowl.
Li Laosan took a bite and then handed it to the other chefs to taste in turn.
At the end, the bowl returned to Li Laosan's hand.
Li Laosan thought for a while, scooped up some more, and handed it to Li Qingjiang who was standing not far away.
“Qingjiang, come and try it too!”
"Ah! Oh, thank you, Third Grandpa."
Li Qingjiang picked up the bowl and drank it all in one gulp, then smacked his lips with a serious look on his face.
After tasting the soup, the expressions of several chefs were surprisingly consistent, and they were all incredibly excited.
“Oh my god, it’s really delicious!”
“I’ve never had such a delicious soup.”
“This is comparable to The taste of my stir-fried mountain mushrooms is not much different. I can’t imagine how it would taste if I added more.” “More, please!”
“Qingjiang. , what do you think of the taste?”
Li Laosan took the initiative to ask Li Qingjiang his opinion.
Li Qingjiang hesitated for a moment and said: "I suggest you don't add any more. The taste is already comparable to the freshness of delicacies from the mountains and seas. Third Master, you didn't say it just now. Grandpa Mountain God said that this thing is not easy. Add more. But since it’s a taste test, it doesn’t hurt to compare and see the more appropriate amount.”
Li Laosan nodded and said: "It makes sense, then add a little more and try it."
After that, Li Laosan took off a little more MSG and added it to the soup.
In an instant, a fresh fragrance wafted up, causing the onlookers to twitch their nostrils. Even Xu Boan outside the bonsai could not help but sniff.
Hey guys, does it smell so strong?
Everyone in the bonsai was also amazed.
“It smells so fragrant.”
“It’s worthy of being eaten by gods. It’s incredible.”
Li Laosan scooped out half a spoonful of soup again. , as soon as he took a taste, his brows wrinkled.
Then they were passed on in turn.
Soon, Li Qingjiang also had a taste.
This time, everyone's expressions were no longer as surprised as before, but more of a look of surprise.
"This...doesn't it taste a little weird?"
"It smells good, but it tastes a little unsatisfactory."
"It's a pity. I’ve already eaten this pot of soup. Let’s add some water.”
“If you want it, add some water.”
Seeing that Li Laosan reached for it. A jar was about to be filled with water, and Xu Bo'an hurriedly stopped him: "Wait a moment!"
Just now, Xu Bo'an suddenly discovered that after smelling this stuff in his nose, his lower abdomen felt as if it was... A warm fire seemed to rise.
Then, the body actually had a very primitive impulse.
Good guy? What kind of soup is this? It can actually have such an effect!
Li Laosan was startled by Xu Boan's sudden words. His hands shook and the jar shook, and he almost fell. Fortunately, he was helped by the chef on the side.
This actually gave Xu Boan some warning and accumulated some experience.
Old people and young people are really different. Next time you choose a private chat partner, you should pay attention to it, so as not to scare the elderly into falling ill.
"Grandpa Mountain God, what instructions do you have, please give me your orders!"
Xu Bo'an continued: "What is in this pot of soup?"
Li The third child came together one by one and said four or five things.
“Back to the Mountain God Grandpa, I just put in some earthworms, mountain yellows, wild cunts, cliff fairy grass, oh, and a small amount of mountain mushrooms. Basically, they are all saved over the past few years. There are nothing rare about the wild vegetable stalks and wild fruits.”
Xu Boan blinked, feeling a little dazed.
Except Shanlihuang, whom Xu Boan has seen, Xu Boan has never heard of any of the others. Shangu is somewhat easy to guess, but Xu Boan is not sure.
Remembering that when he discovered Shanlihuang before, he also discovered it accidentally under the name of wild fruits and seasonings, Xu Boan asked again: "In addition to these things, what else was put in, such as seasonings? "
Li Laosan smiled bitterly and said: "No, there is nothing. Except for the incense you just gave me, it's just some salt and water. It's still the mountain gifted by Grandpa Mountain God. There is not much sweet water left in the temple, but fortunately it rained before, so there is not so much water now.”
Salt, sweet water?
Hey guys, these two things definitely don’t have that kind of special effect.
From this perspective, it’s just the other wild vegetables and fruits.
Xu Boan had no choice but to change his approach and ordered: "Okay, prepare some of the raw materials for this soup for me, and give me a bowl of this soup."
< br>"Okay Grandpa Mountain God, I'll go prepare it right now, there are still some left!"
Xu Bo'an's words in Kaoshan Village were God's will, and soon, a bag of dried vegetables and other things were A bowl made of bamboo tube came into Xu Boan's hands.
After Xu Boan took out the cloth bag and bamboo tube, he put them on the table and thought about getting bigger. Soon, the two things became bigger at a speed visible to the naked eye.
First came the arm-thick bamboo bowl. Xu Boyan picked it up, blew the hot air gently, took a sip and tasted it.
Hey guys, it really works.
What the hell is this, why is it so magical.
Xu Boan suddenly understood the strange and surprised expressions of those people just now.
Gangqing is a little embarrassed, right?
Who has ever thought of making a random wild vegetable soup and actually made it into a tonic soup!
This makes people have to study it carefully.
Xu Boan opened the coarse cloth bundle and found several kinds of shriveled wild vegetables mixed together.
Xu Boan can't even tell which is which.
Good guys, the villagers in Kaoshan Village are simple and honest, and they are far less knowledgeable than the professionals in Dongjiang No. 2 Construction.
In the past, I just asked for random ants, and they could carefully serve you and come up with tricks.
It seems that sometimes it is important to know how to do things.
But Xu Bo'an didn't pay much attention to it. He didn't know these things anyway, and there wasn't much difference between them together and apart.
Xu Bo'an thought for a while, turned on the picture recognition function of his mobile phone and tried these dried wild vegetables.
Nothing was found, either it was impossible to identify, or the things recognized by the intelligence were vastly different from what these wild vegetables looked like.
It seems that there is really no other way!
It would be great if there was a reliable doctor by my side.
Thinking of this, Xu Boan's dissatisfaction with the company's infirmary deepened.
Just as he was thinking about finding someone to replace him earlier, Xu Boan's phone rang.
"Hello, hello!"
"Hello, this is the Second Hospital of Dongjiang City. Your physical examination report is out. Please come and get it as soon as possible."
"Okay, I'll go there in the afternoon." Xu Bo'an responded casually.
The person on the phone seemed to hesitate for a moment before saying, "Okay...well, I suggest you come with your family."
