At nearly twelve o'clock, Li Xiao drove to Jiuquan.
Li Xiao, who had done her homework long ago, drove directly to the hotel she had booked.
Mo Jie and Tuanzi next to them were extremely sleepy, and Li Xiao almost pulled them forward one by one.
This hotel named [Mars Hotel] is very avant-garde in appearance: it looks like a rocket.
And it happens to be surrounded by a cratered wasteland. If you throw away the surrounding facilities, it would look like you are really on Mars at first glance.
Li Xiao was exhausted after driving for almost a day. Li Xiao, who was greedy for convenience, asked the front desk to add an extra bed to his room and went straight to the room that was opened.
After getting on the elevator, Li Xiao was particularly satisfied when she saw the unique "rocket liftoff" 4D surround special effects in the elevator.
Press the floor button, and a flame will "ignite" directly under your feet. As the floor rises, the surrounding environment changes from blue sky and white clouds to outer space, which looks very interesting.
Li Xiao, who was in a hurry to go back to the room to rest, didn't pay too much attention. He took the people back to the room and washed up in a hurry, then fell down on the bed and closed his eyes.
······
When Mo Jie opened his eyes, he almost thought he slept through the night.
The memory of last night was fragmented after Brother Li brought him to the room and he couldn't help but fall asleep.
Mo Jie wanted to rub his eyes, but he felt a hairy hand on his face.
He sat up and realized that it was Chi Chi sleeping on his face that made him unable to see clearly.
"Are you awake?"
Li Xiao's voice came from the side.
Mo Jie responded and fumbled for his glasses. After putting them on, he almost couldn't recognize where he was.
The surrounding walls were black, with a faint flickering light in them. Directly opposite him was a tall floor-to-ceiling window, and outside was a scene of yellow sand in the sky.
Is this in outer space? The surrounding environment is so fake that it seems real.
"Am I awake, or have I traveled through time?" Mo Jie murmured to himself and wanted to close his eyes, but was tempted by the increasingly obvious sweet smell on his nose and stared straight in the direction of Li Xiao.
The wonderful smell came from the pot of milk in Li Xiao's hand.
Attracted by the fragrance, Jiujiu had already jumped directly in front of Li Xiao and started today's "leg climbing" activity, with an impatient look on his face.
"Brother Li, this is too exaggerated!" Mo Jie could hardly help drooling, "Where did you learn this secret recipe? Is this the secret to keeping in shape every day?"
Mo Jie's series of questions made Li Xiao dumbfounded. He put the basin of milk in front of Jiu Jiu and carried it to the dining table, watching it take a big gulp. He pointed at Jiu Jiu: "This is the breakfast prepared for Jiu Jiu.
It’s just a few ordinary milk powders mixed together in proportion and then mixed with some spices that are edible for other animals.”
Li Xiao, who has long been accustomed to the taste of breast milk, doesn't know what Mo Jie is craving for. He is such a big man and it is impossible that he has not yet weaned...
"If Brother Li doesn't mind, can I have a drink too?" Mo Jie became much more energetic, with the same look in his eyes as when Tuanzi was begging for food.
"There is another thing in the kitchen. It is not good to drink milk on an empty stomach. There are a few leftover biscuits beside it, but they are also made for Jiujiu to eat." Looking at Mo Jie walking straight towards the "small animal food", Li
Xiao was shocked.
There are still people rushing to eat the food of small animals these days. Is it because of the previous incident that Mo Jie turned on some strange switch?
Li Xiao, who didn't dare to think deeply, asked Mo Jie to have breakfast, and was relieved after receiving his timely reply.
It seems like it was just a momentary curiosity.
Li Xiao comforted himself in his heart.
After walking out of the room with their stuffed dumplings in their arms, Li Xiao and Mo Jie walked through a corridor that resembled the internal structure of a space station in a science fiction movie and entered the elevator.
Different from the previous one, the surrounding effect this time was that the rocket fell off piece by piece when it returned, and the last remaining escape capsule broke through the atmosphere and fell to the ground.
Mojie clicked his tongue in surprise as the elevator felt a slight tremor as it slid.
"It would be even better if the vibrations were stronger!" Mo Jie commented, still not satisfied, "But after all, it is an elevator, so it is good to have such special effects all around. It would be unsafe if the motion is too strong."
"Brother Li, what should we have for breakfast?" Mo Jie followed Li Xiao outside and was startled by the gusts of wind blowing on the street.
Jiuquan is much emptier than Zhangye, and the area around the hotel is still semi-wasteland, and there is a lot of sand and dust in the wind.
"I heard before that there is a food in Jiuquan that looks like camellia oleifera and spicy spicy soup. Let's go and try it." Li Xiao opened the live broadcast room, said hello to the audience, and headed towards the market next to it.
"According to previous experience, amazing food often appears in the market." Li Xiao tightened the clothes on Tuanzi and led Mo Jie to a crowded place.
This is the time when uncles and aunts are keen to go out to buy "fresh" vegetables. Many elderly people who get up early will go out to look for food without cooking breakfast at home, so it is always a good idea to go directly to the store with the most people.
As a rule, locals tend to go to the market more often, and most of the traps that need to be stepped on have been stepped on by locals. Most of the time, the locals' "food map" will not go wrong in the big waves.
This market is much smaller than the market in Ganzhou, and there are many small stalls selling vegetables on the roadside. Compared with the food court-like decoration of the Ganzhou market, this market is much simpler.
"Is Jiuquan not special?" Li Xiao was uninterested as he looked at the ordinary noodles and the like.
"It is said that the most distinctive features of Jiuquan are rockets and gasoline." Mo Jie replied half-jokingly.
The two of them walked almost to the end of the market, and Li Xiao found a breakfast shop with a large number of people.
【Miaojia Paste Pot】
The tables are decorated in the same simple style as the breakfast shop next to it. They use ordinary wooden tables from food stalls, and the chairs are also very common red plastic stools. What is noteworthy is that the seats are almost full of customers.
"This store is very unusual judging from the number of customers inside." Li Xiao led Mo Jie inside.
As soon as he entered the door, Li Xiao was hit by the oncoming heater.
There is a strong smell of pepper in the air, which makes people's noses start to itch.
"Boss, let's order some chicken soup batter." Li Xiao saw this name on the menu at a glance, and his instinct told him that this kind of food tastes good.
"Me too." Mo Jie followed Li Xiao and added to the boss, sitting down opposite him, "The smell in this store is too over the top.
Paste pot, as a special snack in Jiuquan, its biggest feature is the "paste".
To make chicken soup paste pot, you need to use chicken leg meat to make a portion of stock two hours in advance: wash the chicken leg and deodorize it, add water, pepper and ginger to the pot, bring to a boil over high heat, then turn down to low heat and simmer for two hours.
During this period, start preparing the side dishes: add flour and water and mix into a batter; change the cold skin and gluten that have been soaked in advance; cut the thousand-sheet tofu into thin slices; break the twist into small pieces.
Take out the stewed chicken legs and tear them into small shreds. Strain the soup into the pot and add the side dishes and shredded chicken. Add the batter and stir until it becomes thick. Add salt, black and white pepper, and soy sauce to adjust the color.
Keep stirring over medium-low heat until the soup becomes thick and mushy, and the chicken shreds are completely shredded. Pour in the twists and mix evenly, and it's ready to serve.
While Li Xiao was still introducing the breakfast he ordered to the audience, the landlady over there brought two steaming bowls of chicken soup and paste to the table.
After seeing the "small portion" of kneading fish roe before, and seeing today's large bowl of chicken soup paste pot that could not be lifted with one hand, Li Xiao even felt that she accepted it well.
"It's quite a bargain with this price and such a portion." Li Xiao took out the spoon next to him and started to stir it in the bowl, observing the contents.
A bowl of chicken soup paste pot only costs six yuan. Although there is no meat, it is full of ingredients and tastes very good.
"It's very strong, a bit strong and spicy." Before he could finish his words, Jiu Jiu sneezed in Li Xiao's arms.
For the sake of Chiujiu's breathing, Li Xiao casually took out a mask and put it on before continuing his comments.
"Try the soup first."
Li Xiao scooped out a ladle of thick soup. The chicken shreds on top were clearly defined, and there were a few chicken shreds hanging down the side of the spoon. The rich aroma of the chicken soup was mixed with the spicy and bright pepper flavor.
"The first feeling when entering the mouth is that the whole tongue is almost on fire." Li Xiao took a gentle breath of cold air.
“It’s full of chicken soup flavor, and the shredded chicken has a wonderful texture that melts in your mouth.”
"The chicken has been completely cooked when making the soup, so you don't need your teeth to eat it. You can just sip it and eat it."
"After just one mouthful of soup, my stomach immediately warmed up." The stomach that had been protesting for food all morning was completely soothed.
Li Xiao scooped up the side dishes inside with a spoon and commented while eating: "The texture of the twist is very soft and crispy, and in addition to the taste of pepper, it also has its own fried aroma."
"The gluten absorbs a lot of soup juice, which makes it hot to the mouth when eaten. The texture is chewy and chewy."
"The cold skin tastes very smooth, and the thick soup on top enriches its taste a lot."
After eating, Li Xiao's speed became slower and slower.
"It's so hot." Li Xiao murmured. While saying it was hot, he couldn't help but continue eating. In the end, he simply adopted the posture of eating steamed buns: he started scratching the spoon along the edge of the bowl, bit by bit.
The paste pot beside the bowl was brought to his mouth.
After eating most of the bowl, Li Xiao felt completely comfortable.
"It's so refreshing." Li Xiao began to sweat on his forehead as he ate, "It's spicy and refreshing."
“It’s so comfortable to have a bowl of this when you wake up in the morning.”
"It looks very similar to Hu spicy soup, but the taste is completely different. It's not the same type at all."
“A very good chicken soup pot, a score of 85 is well deserved!”
Li Xiao couldn't help but ate the entire bowl of paste pot, and then burped as if belatedly.

"Ahhh, it turned out to be a sticky pot! I didn't expect that the anchor turned over the sticky pot on the first day he came to Jiuquan. I am a Jiuquan person who is completely satisfied."
"What a childhood memory! What I often did when I was a kid was to have a big bowl of paste pot before going to school and eat it while walking. When I got to school, I would be full and warm. It was really a rare delicacy!"
"According to the anchor, most of the paste pot is made of pepper, right? Can something with so much pepper be delicious?"
"The appearance of this paste pot looks quite ordinary. Is it really as delicious as the anchor said? I don't believe it."
"The host can just come to such a breakfast restaurant and praise a snack to the sky? Isn't this a bit outrageous?"
"Are you new here? Don't you know our anchor's "Food Radar" title? Ask us fans where we have stepped on the bad news when we checked in?"
"I'm here to prove it. I tried the street skewers where the anchor ate before. I wasn't as brave as the anchor, but I felt the anchor's despair at that time. It's really spicy to the point of despair!"
"Take me one, I also had the same style of hand-caught mutton as the anchor. The mutton in that store is really delicious! I don't regret going there at all!"
"Before, I went to a restaurant that the anchor said was terrible, thinking that he might have accepted the opponent's advertisement, but it turned out that I was just asking for trouble - it was exactly as the anchor commented at the time, it was hard to eat.
.”
······
After eating a bowl of fresh and hot paste, Li Xiao, who was full and drunk, yawned uncontrollably.
"There doesn't seem to be anything worth seeing around here." It's really easy to get tired after driving for a long time, especially after eating a full meal, the digestive system starts to work and the brain cells can't take care of it. Li Xiao feels that he is too lazy to think.
"My uncle told me that arrangements can be made today or tomorrow for me to go in and study." Mo Jie, who was sitting opposite, was still struggling with the paste pot - he was so hot that tears came to his eyes and he still persevered.
Put it into your mouth one bite at a time.
"Are you ready to leave today?" Li Xiao asked.
"I want to eat more delicious food with Brother Li." Mo Jie said bluntly: "I can eat meat with Brother Li! This is verified by your fans, Brother Li!"
"Why are you starting to be infected by those fans?" Li Xiao couldn't laugh or cry, "I really want to see what the place where the rocket launches looks like."
