Chapter 196 Fate is wonderful
Although Jicheng has no city gates, registration is required to enter the registration place is on the main road into the city. Several people wearing strange blue and white costumes are standing next to a small booth on the side of the road, registering passers-by.
If you meet a familiar caravan, pass by it faster; if you meet an unfamiliar caravan, ask a few more questions.
Travelers like Feng Qingquan were allowed to pass after simply registering their name, background and purpose of their visit to Jicheng.
Before leaving, he reminded me, "Watch your dog carefully, don't bite anyone!"
Hu Wanqing was furious when she heard this. What do you mean by a dog? I am a green fox, okay?
She wanted to whimper and make excuses, but Feng Qingquan covered her mouth. It would be better to have less trouble when entering the city.
As for Ma Ye, he is indeed an old man, with dull eyes, just like a real old horse. No one could have imagined that such a skinny horse pulling a cart could be a monster!
By pretending to be deaf and dumb, Master Ma saved Feng Qingquan countless times.
After passing the registration office, you have officially arrived in Jicheng.
The roads in Jicheng are all black, and there are red square brick buildings on the streets. On the exposed exterior walls, gray mud sticks the red bricks together, which looks ugly.
Some of the walls were even painted white with a few large characters on them, including slogans like "Don't litter", "Have more children and plant more trees", and "Build roads first to have a better life".
"Ah? Is this Jicheng? Why does it look so ugly?" Hu Wanqing couldn't help but say as she looked at the ugly red brick houses along the way.
A few years ago, Yangzhou was ravaged by the Sacred Heart Church, and people were terrified of the place. One day, Yangzhou suddenly changed.
The land became rich in resources, with endless food and various special delicacies, such as snow-like salt, fruit in glass bottles, and canned meat.
It became strange and produced all kinds of strange things, such as soap, mirrors, cement, shovels, matches, etc.
Yangzhou has become the most unique place among the nine provinces, and many people who have been to Yangzhou are full of praise for it.
That's how Hu Wanqing and Feng Qingquan were attracted. But when they arrived, they were disappointed to see such an ugly house.
Compared with the luxurious houses with flying eaves and carvings, these red brick houses are really ugly!
"What a nice smell!" Hu Wanqing suddenly smelled a fragrance.
That was the smell of food.
"Master Ma, let's go eat something!" Feng Qingquan also smelled the fragrance, it was really fragrant!
"Okay! Let's see if there is any good wine. Also, you are not allowed to eat in my car!" The skinny horse turned its head and changed direction.
"Of course we know! Don't eat in the car!" Feng Qingquan said.
I don’t know whether you are the old horse that has become a monster, or the carriage that has become a monster!
Feng Qingquan was complaining in his heart when he saw the skinny horse following the fragrance and coming to a street. To his surprise, the whole street was full of food and drinks!
From fried tofu, barbecue stalls, steamed buns and wontons, grilled squid, and... Yangzhou specialty grilled cold noodles.
"Grilled cold noodles! This is Yangzhou's specialty grilled cold noodles! Sir, let's eat this!" Hu Wanqing stretched out a paw and pointed to a huge sign.
The sign seemed to be made of iron sheet, with the words "Authentic Yangzhou Grilled Cold Noodles" painted on it!
Feng Qingquan had no objection. Didn't they come to Yangzhou to eat Yangzhou's specialties?
In Jingzhou, they also ate Yangzhou grilled cold noodles. This time when they came to Yangzhou, why not try Yangzhou grilled cold noodles and what is the difference between them?
"Master Ma, would you like to eat grilled cold noodles?" Feng Qingquan asked the skinny horse pulling the cart.
"Grandpa won't eat what that little brat and girl eat. Grandpa smells wine! Give grandpa a few pounds!" The skinny horse raised his head and looked into the distance. There were several shops emitting the smell of wine.
"Then wait a moment, Master Ma. We'll go over there after we buy some cold noodles," Feng Qingquan said.
"Hurry up, hurry up, don't waste time." The skinny horse urged.
Feng Qingquan got off the carriage, came to the cold noodles stand, and said, "Two servings of cold noodles, please."
"Large or small portion? Do you want chili peppers? Do you want meat skewers?" the stall owner said as he worked on the iron plate in front of him. The orange cold noodles were cut into squares and spread on the hot iron plate. As they softened with a little bit of oil, they were beaten with eggs and turned over.
Brush it with secret sauce and sprinkle with seasonal vegetables such as coriander and green onions.
Wow, it smells so good!
"Two large portions, both with meat, one with chili!" Feng Qingquan said.
He doesn't eat spicy food, but Hu Wanqing likes spicy food.
God knows why a fox likes spicy food.
"Please wait a moment, sir!" The stall owner took a shovel and cut the rolled cold noodles into small pieces. He put them in a half-cut bamboo tube, inserted two bamboo sticks, and handed it to the person waiting next to him.
Feng Qingquan waited for a few minutes, and the two portions he ordered were finally ready. After paying a few coins, he got on the carriage and walked towards the tavern in front.
"It smells so good, so good!" Hu Wanqing looked at the two servings of cold noodles in Feng Qingquan's hand and said to Feng Qingquan.
"Don't eat in the carriage!" The skinny horse pulled the carriage and transmitted the message.
"Ahem... let's go to the tavern in front and eat!" Feng Qingquan gave Hu Wanqing a helpless look.
Hu Wanqing had no choice. A great monster like Ma Ye naturally had very good teeth. He could kill a fox with just two bites, just like she could bite off a Yangzhou lollipop.
Crunchy.
Fortunately, the wine shop was not far away, and the wine was also shochu, with a high alcohol content. The skinny horse drank more than ten kilograms in one breath, and he smacked his lips and said, "Hey~ This wine is not bad!"
There are all kinds of strange things in the world, and the fact that a horse could drink did not surprise the waiter.
He had also seen a strong man drink more than ten kilograms of alcohol by himself, which was outrageous.
As for a person eating grilled cold noodles, it is also very normal to feed grilled cold noodles to his dog. He has even seen a person bring a dog to eat crispy dog.
Anything can happen in Jicheng, Yangzhou.
Because this is the charm of Yoshi City.
Hu Wanqing and Feng Qingquan were sitting at a small table outside the tavern eating grilled cold noodles. She felt that grilled cold noodles were indeed a specialty of Yangzhou. They were salty, soft, fragrant, sweet and spicy, with several unique complex flavors mixed together. They were very delicious.
I just don't understand why this thing is called grilled cold noodles when it's neither cold nor grilled?
She was sucking her tongue because of the spiciness when she suddenly heard someone shout, "Xiao Fang?"
What Xiao Fang and Xiao Yuan? She doesn’t know any Xiao Fang!
All she has eyes for is grilled cold noodles!
"Fate, it's indescribable! Xiao Fang! I never thought that we would meet again by chance in the martial arts world!"
Hu Wanqing was lying on a stool eating cold noodles when she suddenly saw a figure in front of her.
She looked up and saw a figure that looked familiar!
Yeah!
He is not dead yet!
"Ahem... don't be anxious. Wait until I finish eating the cold noodles and then I'll let you pout a few times!"
My son particularly likes grilled cold noodles and eats them often.
