Chapter 634

A thunderbolt like idea flashed through Ye Xi's mind.

Crouch, these people of Jiuyi, can't they take the pine branches of the Loong pine and smoke the meat?!

After passing through several stone houses, and then turning around the prehistoric crocodile lizard, which remains motionless in the road like fossils, a circular building much larger than that of ordinary Jiuyi people appears in front of Ye Xi.

"Lao Yan! Lao Yan! We've brought our guests

Before the people arrived, the enthusiastic Jiuyi soldiers around were shouting at the front with their loud voices.

Lu chuckled and said to Ye Xi, "it's in front of you."

Ye Xi nodded and looked at the "old rock" residence.

There are three characteristics of this residence. One is the shape. He has never seen the people of Jiuyi pile their houses into the shape of yurts.

Second, there is no stone house within 100 meters around.

Third, there is a courtyard. At the entrance of the stone house, there are two high walls made of small white rock blocks, which together separate a large courtyard of about 100 square meters.

Unlike the rough construction of the stone house, the two walls are made of a translucent, unknown adhesive, which looks very strong.

A group of people marched to the entrance of the yard.

Standing at the entrance of the courtyard, you can see that there are many tall wooden frames in the yard, and the huge red, well-defined texture of the big hind legs are hung in the air by the thin straw rope, which is quite spectacular.

On the ground, there are rows of rectangular stoves built with stones. Inside the stove are charred black coals burning Mars. On top of the stoves are pine branches. White smoke is constantly evaporating from the pine branches, and it drifts dimly around the hind legs.

The crystal salt particles on the back leg meat are gradually melted by the smoke and heat, and all of them seep into the texture of the meat.

There is golden grease dripping down.

"Stab!"

The oil drips onto the charcoal fire, giving off a wisp of zigzag, fragrant white smoke.

Jiuyi soldiers, who were still noisy, were suddenly quiet. Their eyes were all fixed on the ham meat. They licked their lips with their tongue from time to time. Their laryngeal knots rolled up and down, and their saliva seemed to flow down.

After a long time.

"It's not a place to come! What a tormenting aroma

A soldier complained: "I don't know when my Ham will be ready. It's been a long time!"

The bareheaded soldier next to him sighed and said, "don't say that. I'm with you. My ham is still a month short, and yours is almost the same..."

"Come on, it's hard not to eat ham here. I'll go first."

"I'm gone too!"

"I'm going to stay here No, no, it's too bad. I'll go. I'll roast him 50 Jin meat first to satisfy my hunger! "

The man walked more than half at once.

Ye Xi was neither laughing nor crying.

He finally understood why there was no stone house within 100 meters around. His feelings could not bear the smell of smoked ham! Jiuyi people who love to eat can smell and see, but they can't eat it. It's hard to stay away from it!

Lu took Ye Xi through the ham array in the yard and went into the big stone house.

This yurt shaped stone house has no windows. It is different from the sunny outside. It's dark inside. The temperature difference between inside and outside is great. Once you go in, you will feel cool.

Ye Xi cast his eyes to the left.

On his left is a large rock platform.

The color of the rock platform was the same as the light in the room. All of them were black. An old soldier with one eye and skin like a dead tree was kneading fresh hind legs with salt in the dark.

From time to time, he grabbed a handful of salt crystals from the big stone bowl, sprinkled them evenly on the hind legs like snowflakes, and then rubbed them repeatedly until the salt was rubbed into the hind legs.

Ye Xi's eyes were fixed on the salt crystal in the stone bowl.

This salt crystal also seems unusual, is a good thing! It should be better than the natural rock salt in the rock salt cave they found in Xicheng.

Lu Xing rushed to the old soldier and said, "Laoyan, should my ham be ready?"

The old soldier, named Laoyan, stopped and glanced at them with his sinister one eye without saying a word.

Lu also didn't care. He patted Ye Xi on the shoulder and said, "ah Xi, don't blame him. If you beat him, you can't hear a cry of pain! Ha ha

"But, Lao Yan's ham is really delicious!"

"If you want to eat ham, you should not only give enough reward, but also bring good hind leg meat and a few catties of clear dew pine branches, otherwise you will not have to eat it! Besides, I have to wait a few months patiently, otherwise I won't have to eat! "

"Besides, everyone can only order one ham a year. Tut, if you want to eat ham, you have to wait for a year. Laoyan doesn't make money even if he has animal cores What a pity, a pity

Ye Xi said to Lu with a smile: "it's very complicated to make ham. I heard that there are five steps to make ham: salting, smoking, drying, fermentation and drying. If one step is not done well, the quality of Ham will decline. I think it's not that Lao Yan doesn't want to make more ham, but he's afraid that it will be bad. "Lao Yan's one eye looked at Ye Xi again, but he still did not speak.

Lu touched his belly and said, "salt, smoke, air, ferment and dry? Hey, it seems that ah Xi knows a lot about ham. I probably know about the salted and smoked ham, but what is fermentation for? "

Ye Xi was stunned: "er..."

He was still thinking about how to explain it. Lu had already abandoned the question and yelled impatiently to Lao Yan in a loud voice: "what am I doing when I say Laoyan? Get my ham out of here! I'm going to invite my brother-in-law to have a taste of it

After shouting, he wiped his mouth with the back of his hand.

Ye Xi:

Lao Yan glanced at Lu, dipped his salty hands into the water tank, then turned around and went into another room without saying a word.

Lu is not at ease, such as the sound behind the urge: "hurry up --!"

After a while, Lao Yan came back with a big ham three meters long, which looked more than 100 Jin. The surface of the ham was brown, covered with some white hyphae, hard.

Lu Xi took it with both hands, looked at it repeatedly, and said, "yes, this is my leg! Lao Yan, although you are older, your brain is very good! After such a long time, I still remember that this leg is mine

"Eat, eat, I can't wait!"

Then, in Ye Xi's shocked eyes, Lu held the two ends of the ham in both hands, and with a bang, broke the big bone in it, and then used brute force to tear the fiery red ham inside.

After throwing half of the ham to Ye Xi, Lu Ao gave a cry and couldn't wait to take a bite.

"Delicious!"
