Chapter 978 - Difficult Feast

“What’s the situation?”

Village Chief Cui heard the movement in the village and hurriedly ran to the door of the ancestral hall to look out. After taking a look, he immediately shrank his neck and ran back, staring at the scale on Li Bai's hand eagerly and said, "Good baby, good baby!"

He narrowed his eyes, as if he was possessed by a demon.

"Hey, hey! Rub saliva!"

Li Bai kindly reminded him and stuffed the scales of the witch Qingyao back into his pocket.

Since it has been taken out of the storage ring and not in the pocket, the effect is not very different.

"Ah! Hehe, sorry, sorry!"

Cui Village Chief's soul was finally called back, and he wiped his mouth with an embarrassed look on his face.

Even the insects in the entire village were scared by the "dragon scale", and they must be treasures.

If there is such a "baby" in charge, I am afraid that the whole village will no longer be disturbed by any insects, and even save pesticides in the field, which is another big sum of money.

As he thought about it, he quickly wiped his mouth again, fearing that saliva would flow down again.

You can't think about it anymore. If you continue thinking about it, you may make mistakes.

Wealth is moving, and treasures are even more touching.

The team leader Sun Shuhui also looked outside the ancestral hall gate and walked around the yard for a few more times. He did not see a lively bug, and muttered in a low voice, "It's really nothing else."

Then he looked at Li Bai's pocket with green scales again in surprise and asked, "Is it your scale that caused it?"

The "dragon scales" not only shocked the insects in the ancestral hall, but also shocked the insects in the entire village.

A "Word Parade" is being held outside the ancestral hall. The scene is particularly terrifying and easily reminds people of the witchcraft in the mountains in the southwest.

"The effect is OK!"

Li Bai took out the green scale and threw it in his hand for a moment, stuffed it back into his pocket again.

The pressure of the big demon snake scales was not only the entire ancestral hall, but even the entire village was covered, which triggered a riot among insects in the whole village and escaped collectively.

Village Chief Cui advised himself not to have a delusion, but he couldn't help but stare at the scale.

Seeing the strange gaze of the local snake, Li Bai smiled and kindly reminded: "Captain Cui, this dragon scale is indeed a treasure, but if mortals want to get involved, they will only cause disasters and trouble for themselves. The last guy who borrowed it and did not pay it back, but it was a big trouble. Do you want to know this story?"

This is another sad story of stealing chickens but losing rice. The unlucky guy who originally wanted to possess this snake scale finally cried and shouted that he wanted to return it to his death.

"No, no!"

The head of the village head Cui, who had a strong desire to survive, quickly shook his head like a plucking drum.

As the indigenous people in the mountainous areas in the southwest, they naturally know the benefits and believe in the theory of disasters.

With just one warning, he would never dare to have any undue thoughts.

"Can you show me the scale?"

The Chinese medicine doctor Wei Jin, who had been bitten by mosquitoes, was very interested in the "dragon scale" that had just been lit out on Li Bai's hand.

In the field of traditional Chinese medicine, snakes, insects, rats and ants can be used as medicine. There are more and more medicinal materials with "dragon" in their name. He really wanted to carefully examine whether this scale, called "dragon scale", is the legendary dragon.

"OK!"

Li Bai took out the scales very generously and put them on Dr. Wei's hand.

"It's not jade, right?"

As soon as the scales were purchased, the warm and smooth texture made Wei Jin's eyes lit up.

It is completely different from the rough fish scales. Every inch of this green and transparent scale reveals extraordinaryness. A dangerous warning is faintly transmitted from the strange texture when the palms come into contact, causing the hairs on the back of his neck to stand up one by one, like a terrifying existence. Even if it is just a molt, it is definitely not something that ordinary snakes or giant anacondas can possess.

The more carefully he looked at him, the more he felt something was wrong. A green giant snake was depicted in Wei Jin's mind, staring at him tightly. He was panicked for no reason. He hurriedly threw the green scale in his hand back to Li Bai.

He patted his chest and said with lingering fear: "This thing is a bit weird!"

"What a dragon scale?"

The team leader Sun Shuhui is obviously a little pretentious.

"Only God knows!"

Traditional Chinese Medicine Wei Jin dared not make a promise, but felt that this was not an ordinary scale.

Even people can feel danger and unusual, and those sensitive insects react more intensely, which now seems not surprising.

"Just work!"

Sun Shuhui no longer said anything. At least that strange scale completely calmed the ancestral hall, and the work of the medical team could also be carried out smoothly.

Including reception staff at the provincial and county levels and Coaster drivers, plus ten medical teams, a total of thirteen people, they were busy in the front yard and central hall of the ancestral hall, and thoroughly swept every corner.

The scale Li Bai took out was indeed powerful, but he swept out two dustpans of insect corpses. The arthropods and coleopters with their teeth and claws were shocking. Fortunately, they had not started their meal yet, otherwise they would not even be able to eat supper.

Seeing the busy medical team and the village chief Cui called out more than a dozen people, with many people and great power. In a short while, the entire ancestral hall was cleaned up inside and outside, and even the stone pier was about to be polished.

He placed various medical devices, put them in the drug warehouse, hung two large steel locks, one key was given to the medical team leader Sun Shuhui, the other was given to the reception staff of the Provincial Health Department Lu Li, and the township government accountant of Baikou Township still had his own money box, and the responsibilities were very clear.

After all this, the sky was getting darker.

The afterglow of the sunset shines on the high-voltage wire tower at the top of the ridge and the signal poles of the mobile communication base station, like a layer of gold edges.

At this moment, the village was full of insect corpses, as if an extinction disaster had just happened.

The bugs that ran later were scared to death by the pressure of snake scales. Unfortunately, these little bugs didn't know that the main owner hadn't come at all. Just some breath scared them out of their courage and they couldn't survive.

The villagers of Qishuiao looked dead bugs everywhere.

Village Chief Cui personally closed the gate of the central hall and the front yard of the ancestral hall, and also hung a lock.

Although no one usually breaks into the ancestral hall for damage, there are important items from the medical team now. Be careful not to make a big mistake, so I still add a lock.

The supper was placed at the village chief's house. Because there were four more wild boars, the two large pots on the kitchen stove were obviously not enough. I borrowed several large pots from neighbors and processed the divided wild boars separately.

When the medical team and others came from the ancestral hall, the wild boar meat in the pressure cooker was almost out of the pot.

The secret to cooking wild boar meat in Qishuiao Village is to use cold water and sliver the blood, then swell it with oil, then throw it into a pressure cooker, put it in a green onion slice, ginger to kill fishy smell, mix raw dark soy sauce with fermented black beans and oyster sauce to taste, do not add salt, then pour two bottles of beer, a bottle of rice wine and water, cover it directly, and then low heat after the air rises, maintain the pressure and temperature throughout the whole process, for three hours, and the meat is soft and rotten.

If you want a better taste, it takes five hours, and you have to add water and beer in the middle, and cook from morning to night. This is the best way to (the meat fiber of the hind legs of the wild boar is thick and hard, and you can't eat it for less than three hours in the pressure cooker).

When Village Chief Cui brought the medical team back from the ancestral hall, the wild boar meat in the pressure cooker had just passed three hours.

The hard dishes on the table were basically wild boars brought by the medical team. The mountain people skillfully made a few delicious foods from the wild boars.

Fried onion with wild boar skin, use the method of refrying the pork belly. The wild boar skin is replaced with pork belly. The taste is abnormal and the bite is very chewy.

The large intestine of southern milk, rub the cut wild boar intestine with sweet potato powder, remove the lymph and fatty oil, add cooking wine and ginger pieces to cook for half an hour, cut into sections and stir-fry with garlic cloves, then stir-fry with the blended red citrus to taste, and finally use the sauce with starch powder, which is not as hard as cooking meat with pressure cookers. After the pot, the aroma and taste are not inferior to the large intestine of domestic pigs, and it is even more chewy and crisper.

The dishes prepared by Qishuiao Village include fried stream fish, cucumbers, wild vegetables, fried beans and a large pot of braised catfish, etc., and seven or eight stainless steel basins, together guarding the large pot of steaming wild boar in the center. The staple food is not rice, but steamed foreign citrus (potatoes) in baskets. Just like Western food bags, you can use it yourself.

As a poor village among poor counties, it is not easy to eat enough every day, and there is really not much good stuff to take.

In order to clean up the wild boar meat, almost half of the village's seasonings were emptied.

In normal times, the most common three meals a day is freshly picked vegetables, and even the oil is hard to put on. If you want to eat meat, you can only wait for the holidays. Poultry, livestock, such as chickens, ducks, geese, etc., raised at home is an important source of economical income for daily life.

Because over-exploitation of mountains and forests is not allowed, the only crops that can be planted are Yangyu, such as crops such as rice and corn, and there is no money to buy enough pesticides and fertilizers.

Without fertilizer, terraced fields with limited area will be planted in a few years, while planting foreign ferment requires less fertility. You can use manure and potassium-rich wood ash to supplement it, and sprinkle some chemical fertilizers and top dressing to ensure a year's harvest.

Seeing that the main dishes on the table were brought by the medical team, Cun Cui couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.

He originally wanted to kill another chicken, but the kid at home was hoping to lay a few more eggs so that he could exchange money for a set of extracurricular books he had liked for a long time. In the end, he couldn't bear to leave. He went to the stream to touch more than twenty small fish, and asked the villagers who went to pick up the medical team to go to the pond to see if they could catch a few big fish and add extra meals to the guests.

Fortunately, those wild boars were considered to have lifted the siege for Village Chief Cui, so that the table tonight would not be overwhelming.

"Everyone sits, everyone has a seat. The family's conditions are simple. Please give it a try."

Village Chief Cui greeted him warmly, and an oversized round table top was pressed on the Eight Immortals table, which could just sit down by more than ten people.
