Everyone felt their eyes blurred, but when they took a closer look, they saw two arrows stuck in the neck and head of the cobra, but it was still wagging its tail with its tenacious vitality.
"good."
Everyone cheered in unison.
"Brother will win, shoot these evil things to death."
Gao Yanei covered his eyes and shouted excitedly.
This Niu Gao is so fierce. He dares to catch a cobra and put it under the bed. You need to talk to him carefully later. This is really a joke with your life!
The more Li Qi thought about it, the more horrified he became, and he whispered to a member of Group 8 beside him: "Did you know when Coach Niu caught the snake?"
The man replied: "As for the deputy commander, I know that, but he was walking in front alone at the time, so we didn't know that Coach Niu had caught so many snakes."
"Did he grab it with his hands?"
"That's not true. He caught it with a stick."
Li Qi hummed, and suddenly heard an exclamation. He turned around and saw two more long snakes running out of the sack. One had light brown markings, and the other had dark brown markings. Both of them were spitting fishy smell.
Red letter.
Li Qi's eyes flashed sharply, and he said joyfully: "The iron head is soldered on the mountain, and the brocade is made of white strips."
"Well come."
Zhao Kai shouted loudly, nocked an arrow, opened his bow, opened his fingers, and shot out the arrow like a meteor. Hearing a whooshing sound, another arrow followed him.
The poor two snakes were shot seven inches through by ruthless arrows before they could clearly see the scenery outside.
"Roar--!"
Everyone immediately shouted in unison that this game was so exciting and thrilling.
Perhaps the snake in the bag had smelled a hint of danger, but after a while, no snake came out again.
Li Qi looked anxious, come out quickly, come out quickly, my cobra blood is almost drained, please, come out quickly.
"You evil beasts, I'll see if you can get out."
Niu Gao was furious, drew three arrows and shot them directly at the sack.
Sure enough, after these three arrows went down, the remaining five snakes rushed out at the same time. The man in Gao Yanei turned pale with fright and exclaimed: "Oh my God, there are so many snakes!"
Niu Gao laughed and drew the arrow again. He aimed and shot without hesitation. Zhao Kai did not give in. The two of them fired rapidly. The arrows were like the god of death in the night, ruthlessly taking away the names of the five snakes.
Life.
The others watched with fascination. This was a hundred times more exciting than the last competition between Niu Gao and Ma Qiao. After bursts of applause, Li Qi immediately asked people to go to the front to see who had shot more people, and he used a stick by the way.
After finishing his attack, he knocked the half-dead snake to death. He stepped forward, clapped his hands and said, "Your Highness, you have such good archery skills."
Zhao Kai laughed and said: "Li Qi, please don't belittle me. I don't dare to show off in front of a marksman like you."
Niu Gao glanced at Li Qi suspiciously and said in surprise: "A sharpshooter?"
Zhao Kai raised his lips and said, "Don't you know? When your deputy commander and I went hunting, you single-handedly shot an extremely ferocious leopard to death."
Niu Gao suddenly gasped. The others also looked at each other in shock.
If Ma Qiao were here, he would probably laugh out loud. He was the only one who saw the flaw at that time.
Sweating! You still remember, I have forgotten it. Li Qideng was sweating profusely, and he said hurriedly: "Your Highness, I hope you will not mention such cruel things again, I will
I regret killing too many people and have vowed never to touch a bow or arrow again."
When Niu Gao heard this, he hurriedly said: "No, deputy commander, show us your hands!"
"Forget it, forget it, my arrows are too evil. You can't use them carelessly to avoid hurting innocent people." Li Qi said casually.
"The evil spirit is too strong?" Niu Gao couldn't understand at all.
At this time, a soldier ran over and said: "Deputy Commander, His Royal Highness King Yun shot four and a half, and Coach Niu shot three and a half."
Since they both shot the first snake at the same time, it is fair to count the soldier as one and half.
"King Yun, King Yun."
Liang Xiong took the lead in shouting, and the rest of the people followed suit. This flattery was like an earthquake.
When Zhao Kai heard the crowd cheering, he had a proud look on his face, but he humbly said: "The reason why I can win is because Coach Niu shows mercy and lets me shoot first every time."
He is not a stunning beauty, how could he let you cum first?
An extremely evil picture appeared in Li Qi's mind.
Niu Gao cupped his fists and said: "Where, where, His Highness's archery skills are amazing, Niu Gao admires him."
Li Qi stood aside and watched the two of them pretending to be bad. He felt unhappy, rolled his eyes, and walked towards the front.
"Li Qi, where are you going?" Zhao Kai asked.
Li Qi smiled and said: "I will go and save those snakes, and you will be in luck." After saying that, he asked someone to hang a clean wooden board on the pillar. First, he nailed the cobra to it, cut its belly and took out the snake's gallbladder.
Looking at the black and green snake gallbladder, Li Qi exclaimed: "Excellent!" Then he washed it and put it in a bowl of wine.
Then take out the other snake galls and put them into the wine.
"Deputy Commander, can I have a try?" Niu Gao said excitedly.
"Do you think your life is too long? Can you drink this?"
Li Qi glared at him angrily, then called for a cook to give him some instructions in his ear. After hearing this, the man nodded and ran out quickly with the snake gallbladder.
Zhao Kai asked in confusion: "What are you doing?"
Li Qi smiled and said: "Your Highness, I want to make snake gall wine. This wine is not strong enough, so I have to use the strong wine I brewed myself. When the brewing is completed, I will give it to you to drink."
In order to show off, many people in later generations drank directly from the snake gallbladder as soon as they took out the snake gallbladder. In fact, the risk factor of doing so was very high, ranging from blindness to death, because even strong alcohol could not destroy the contents of the snake gallbladder in such a short period of time.
All the parasites have been killed, and the snake gall contains toxins, so it is absolutely impossible to eat it raw. It has to be soaked for two to three months before it can be eaten.
Zhao Kai shook his head and said: "I'll forget it, you should leave it to Coach Niu and the others to drink."
Niu Gao chuckled and said, "I will never refuse if you have a drink."
"It's indispensable for you. Okay, I'll deal with these snakes first, and we'll talk about it later."
Li Qi called Chen Dazhu over and helped himself, sharpening the knife, boiling water, and disinfecting it. After making all preparations, Li Qi began to use the knife, beheading, skinning, and removing the internal organs.
The soldiers knew that their deputy commander was a famous cook, but they had never seen him cooking, so they all gathered around to watch.
Gao Yanei stood in the distance and shouted: "Li Qi, you really want to eat these things!"
Li Qi replied without looking back: "You don't have to eat it."
"Of course I won't eat it."
After washing away the blood, Li Qi asked for a prepared pheasant and stuffed the cobra directly into the chicken's belly. The chicken that was born to be eaten by snakes finally got its revenge today.
Li Qi ordered someone to boil a pot of water, put the chicken containing the snake and the other seven snakes into it, and added fresh bamboo shoots, fungus, mushrooms, and other ingredients. When the pot was covered, Li Qi let out a sigh of relief and suddenly saw people standing around him.
He was full of people and said with a wry smile: "Don't stand here, go and eat quickly, otherwise you won't have anything to eat later."
Just this pot of soup, so many people, there is no way to share it. Li Qi hopes that they will not dare to eat it and eat it all by himself. This is the first time in his life that he has got so many treasures. These snakes are really rare in future generations.
, said without any secret that his expectations for this dish were no less than those of others.
The soldiers were then ordered to leave and gathered together in twos and threes to discuss Li Qi's cooking skills.
But Niu Gao refused to leave. He seemed to really want to eat the snake meat. Hong Tianjiu, Zhao Kai, and Zhou Hua didn't leave either. They gathered around the fire and waited for the pot of snake meat.
After a while, Li Qi opened the lid of the pot, took a look inside, and said, "Okay."
As soon as he finished speaking, a spoon was stretched out.
Li Qi's face tightened, and he blocked the spoon with one hand. He turned around and saw an embarrassed look on his face. He said angrily: "What are you doing?"
Niu Gao said sarcastically: "I eat snake meat."
"Who told you you can eat it?"
"Didn't you agree?"
"I mean the soup is ready, but that doesn't mean it's ready to eat. Please wait a while."
Li Qi said and said to Chen Dazhu: "Is the gauze ready?"
"Ready."
"let's start."
After Chen Dazhu heard this, he immediately took the big pot away from the fire. On the table next to the passage, Li Qi took out the snake from the pot, put on sterilized gloves, and tore all the snake meat into strips.
After filtering the soup with gauze, push the cornstarch powder into a soup, then pour in the chrysanthemum juice, stir for a while, and then say: "Which of you wants it?"
"I (I) want."
Niu Gao and Hong Tianjiu rushed forward in a hurry.
Li Qi gave them a small bowl each, and then said to Chen Dazhu: "You should also try it. This snake meat is our chef's treasure. Do you want to learn to know it?"
Chen Dazhu nodded and said, "Yes." Then he filled a bowl for himself.
"Wow! This snake meat is so delicious. Uh-huh, I've never eaten anything so delicious in my life." Hong Tianjiu didn't even bother to use chopsticks. He grabbed the snake meat with his hands and put it into his mouth.
Stuffed, I ate it with relish.
Seeing this, Li Qi quickly took the big bowl and hid to the edge to taste it carefully. He looked like he was enjoying it and secretly rejoiced. He obediently said, "It's so delicious."
"Deputy Commander, give me another bowl." Niu Gao suddenly stretched out the bowl and said with a flattering smile.
"Brother Li, I want it too, I want it too." Hong Tianjiu also ran over, fearing that he would fall behind others.
Li Qi glared at the two of them angrily, reluctantly gave them a bowl each, and said, "Eat slowly, I don't have much left."
Fatty Zhou Hua was initially wary, but seeing how delicious they were eating, he felt that the chicken drumsticks in his hands were tasteless. He came over and said, "Brother Li, give me some to try too."
"Fat man, don't you want to eat?"
"Haha, now I have changed my mind."
Li Qi glanced at him depressedly and said, "This dish is so filling. If you are so fat, you can avoid it."
"Brother Li." Zhou Hua said coquettishly, squeezing his little eyes.
Li Qi suddenly felt goosebumps and gave him a spoonful, "Go away."
"Hey, hey, hey."
Zhou Hua took a bite, his eyes lit up, and he said ecstatically: "Wow! It's so delicious." One piece after another, his mouth never stopped opening.
Zhao Kai saw that their expressions were so exaggerated. Even Li Qi regarded the bowl of snake meat as a treasure. He became more and more curious. In the end, he couldn't help but walked over and asked: "Li Qi, is this snake meat really so?"
Is it delicious?"
Li Qi shook his head like a rattle and said, "It doesn't taste good, it doesn't taste good at all." As he spoke, he speeded up again.
Zhao Kai felt angry and funny in his heart, and said: "Do you still want me to ask you for it?"
You're stealing it! Li Qi's face stiffened, and he smiled and said: "Where, where." As he said that, he served Zhao Kai another bowl.
Zhao Kai just ate a piece and was stunned. He was shocked and said: "I didn't expect that this snake meat is so delicious. It's crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It's rich and fragrant. It's simply delicious and otherworldly!"
"Brother, is it so delicious?"
At some point, Gao Yanei's fellow suddenly appeared.
Zhao Kai was slightly startled, shook his head and said: "It's not delicious, you heard wrong." After that, he turned to Li Qi and said seriously: "Li Qi, I have something to discuss with you, let's go over there and talk.
Bar."
Li Qi didn't know what he meant, and thought to himself, it's better to share it between two people than to share it with so many people! He nodded and said with a smile: "That's fine, that's fine, please, Your Highness."
"please."
"Brother, Li Qi, you are so unloyal, I want to eat it too." Gao Yanei was not stupid at all, he saw through their plot at a glance.
Zhao Kai knew Gao Yanei's personal name, so he waved his hand and said, "Just give him a bowl."
Li Qi secretly thought, if you give him a bowl, you will never be able to get rid of him. Anyway, for the sake of Brother Qiu, I will give you a bowl, said yes, and then made a bowl for him.
This was terrible, Hong Tianjiu and the others rushed up again, hugging their legs, hugging their heads, demanding another bowl.
Li Qi wanted to spit in it, but unfortunately his mouth was covered. In desperation, he gave each of them another bowl, and then said: "That's all, I haven't even eaten it yet."
Hong Tianjiu was perfunctory, but his eyes were fixed on the bowl.
Gao Yanei stood aside with the bowl in hand. He struggled internally for a while before he mustered up the courage to eat a small piece. At first, he closed his eyes tightly, but after taking a bite, his face suddenly changed. He held the piece
My hands are shaking.
Hong Tianjiu came over and said, "Brother, if you don't like to eat, I'm willing to help."
Gao Yanei quickly protected the bowl and said angrily: "If anyone wants to steal my snake meat, I will fight him to the death."
Hong Tianjiu chuckled and said, "I'm just asking, don't be angry." As he said that, he held the bowl and started eating slowly, with reluctance in his eyes. He hoped that the snake meat in the bowl would always be there.
There are so many.
Gao Yanei hadn't even finished the bowl, and was already thinking about the next one. But when he looked around, he saw Li Qi and Zhao Kai nowhere to be seen. He was so angry that he almost smashed the bowl.
When the soldiers saw them fighting for each other, their eyes showed envy, but they also understood that they definitely did not have a share.
Li Qi and Zhao Kai hid in a dark corner. They divided the large bowl of snake meat equally and tasted it slowly.
"Li Qi, what's the name of your dish?"
"Hmm - Deputy Commander Eight Snake Soup."
Zhao Kai chuckled and said: "That's a good name." After a pause, he added: "I didn't expect that this snake looks scary, but its meat is the most delicious meat in the world."
Li Qi smiled and said: "I remember my father once told me that the most poisonous thing in the world is the most delicious thing."
"Is this the poisonous snake your father is talking about?"
Li Qi smiled and said nothing. He thought, snake meat? Compared with it, it is simply a world of difference.
After a while, the two finally finished the bowls of snake meat, burped at the same time, stood up, patted their bellies, and suddenly saw a person walking over, it was Niu Gao.
"Deputy Commander, I have finally found you." Niu Gao saw Li Qi and hurriedly walked forward.
Li Qi said angrily: "It's too late to find me. It's just an empty bowl. How about you?"
"I'm not talking about this, I just want to ask you how to make this snake meat?"
Li Qi frowned and said, "I was just about to tell you this. You are not allowed to catch snakes again without my instructions." He didn't want to lose a general like Niu Gao because of a bowl of snake meat.
Niu Gao asked anxiously: "Why is this?"
"This is an order. If I find out, you can go back to farming, do you understand?" Li Qi glared and shouted in a deep voice.
Niu Gao quickly clasped his fists and said: "I obey my orders."
Li Qi hummed with satisfaction and said: "But don't worry, I will ask someone to catch snakes in the future. If you perform well then, I will reward you."
Niu Gao looked happy, clasped his fists and said, "I am humbled by my position and am willing to do my best for the deputy commander."
