Only a few people under Wang Junlin knew that Wang Junlin had gone to the northwest.
But after Wang Junlin arrived at Tianshui County, he stopped, as if he had forgotten the agreement he had made with the Spring and Autumn Envoy.
Having stayed in Tianshui County for three days, Wang Junlin naturally would not be bored in the house all the time, nor could he travel around.
With Wang Junlin's status, he naturally would not come alone to make an appointment with the Spring and Autumn Envoy. However, since he came to the northwest secretly, he could not openly bring an army with him.
However, at least Shen Guoer and her elite spies from the Military Intelligence Agency, Zhang Tiangang and his elite special forces experts, and the top experts from the martial arts guild managed by Zhongyao and Chunqiu Nu for Nie Xiaoyu. These three forces have to mobilize personnel either overtly or covertly. Follow the king to come, listen to his orders, and serve him.
In later generations, although Wang Junlin later went to work as a mercenary, he grew up in northwest China when he was a child. He liked to eat barbecue since he was a child, and it was the most authentic northwest mutton skewers.
So, to be honest, since arriving in the Sui Dynasty, Wang Junlin has long wanted to have a barbecue, especially a kebab.
I used to be busy with various things and had no time, plus I was short of various materials, especially seasonings. However, in the past few years, I have found some or found some substitutes.
Tianshui County happened to be able to find the most tender mutton, so when Shen Guoer found Parthian fennel, which is later known as "cumin", Wang Junlin immediately had a set of utensils made and circled around Tianshui Lake. On a piece of land, there was an open-air barbecue party.
Except for Wang Junlin, everyone else was full of curiosity and doubts, but when Wang Junlin lit a charcoal smokeless fire in a special stove, put the mutton on the washed red willow branches, roasted it on the white charcoal fire for a while, and waited for the heat Almost, after evenly spreading the seasoning mixed with cumin, a strange fragrance that no one had ever smelled suddenly wafted from the edge of Tianshui Lake.
This fragrance spread to everyone's nostrils, and everyone immediately made a sound of surprise, and their eyes lit up one by one.
There were not many people attending the barbecue party with Wang Junlin, only four of them, namely Shen Guoer, Zhang Tiangang, Chong Yao and Chunqiu Nu.
As for the others, they are naturally hidden in the dark.
When Wang Junlin personally grilled a handful of mutton skewers and ate the meat first, showing an intoxicated look, Shen Guoer and others were stunned. They had never seen their prince show such a look.
Seeing this, the others naturally became more and more curious. They took the barbecue handed over by Wang Junlin and started eating it. Their voices of exclamation and joy suddenly came and went, their eyes became brighter and brighter, and they ate the barbecue faster and faster.
When Wang Junlin came to this era, the first outdoor barbecue party had begun.
Of course it can't just be mutton, but also all kinds of fresh fish, various birds and animals that will be illegal to eat in later generations, and some seasonal vegetables.
Wang Junlin ate through the dishes and patted his belly with satisfaction. In the end, his expression was full of deep regret and he murmured to himself: "What a pity, there is only cumin powder and no chili pepper."
"Can we form a fleet later and go to America in advance to get chili peppers and tobacco?" Wang Junlin said alone in words that others could not understand.
The seasonings used today, in addition to cumin powder, also include ginger, garlic and wild dogwood. These two things also have some spiciness and can make the barbecue a little spicier, but they are still far behind the pepper flavor and not flavorful enough. ah!
Seeing the smoke rising from the shore of Tianshui Lake, and the laughter and laughter on a picturesque lawn on the north shore, Shen Guoer, known as the "Iron Girl" in Fanyang County, was no different from an ordinary girl at this time, her little mouth was full of greasy, There are also black and gray spots on the small face, which looks like a small tabby cat.
But the two old guys, Zhong Yao and Chun Qiu Nu, were quick to move, their hands and mouths never stopped, and they almost started fighting over the meat skewers.
Zhang Tiangang's mouth was also full. He stared at the carp that Shen Guoer was roasting on the stove without blinking, and drool started to flow from the corners of his mouth.
How can you eat barbecue without good wine? In addition to eating meat, everyone also drinks a lot of wine, and everyone seems to have a good drinking capacity. Every time they eat a skewer of meat, they have to take a big sip of wine.
At a certain moment, Wang Junlin ate a mouthful of meat and was about to drink when his body suddenly shook. Then he slowly drank the wine and then slowly turned around.
Then, Wang Junlin saw two thin figures looking at the Tianshui Lake with their backs on their backs under a big willow tree a hundred steps away.
Almost at the moment Wang Junlin turned his head, one of them suddenly turned around, and his eyes happened to collide with Wang Junlin's.
Suddenly, Wang Junlin couldn't help but feel shocked. In a daze, he felt like two knives were stabbing his eyes.
But this feeling disappeared in a flash. When Wang Junlin's expression returned to normal, the two people had already walked towards him.
Although these two people are both thin and small, they are a man and a woman. The man is the Spring and Autumn Messenger, but Wang Junlin feels that he has never seen this face of the Spring and Autumn Messenger. His face is indifferent and stiff without any expression, but Wang Junlin When I saw these eyes, I was extremely sure that this person was the Messenger of Spring and Autumn.
But the woman was something that surprised Wang Junlin. She was Chen Danying's junior sister and Li Zongfeng's apprentice Su Meier.
After not seeing each other for several years, Wang Junlin found that Su Meier seemed to have not changed much at first glance, but upon closer inspection, he found that this girl was becoming more and more charming.
That's right, it can only be described with the word 'charming', and this kind of charm is not the attraction that beautiful women have to men under normal circumstances, but the kind of charm similar to that of Yuehu, the leader of Tianmei Sect, Wang Junlin even felt a feeling similar to that of the Moon Fox in him.
Shen Guo'er, Zhang Tiangang, Chong Yao and Chun Qiu Nu naturally discovered the appearance of the Spring and Autumn Messenger and Su Mei'er. They all looked as solemn as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Wang Junlin clasped his fists at the Spring and Autumn Messenger and performed the courtesy of a junior: "Senior, I am here to welcome you, but I will welcome you from afar."
A strange light flashed in the Spring and Autumn Envoy's eyes, he looked at Wang Junlin, nodded, and said nothing.
However, Su Meier smiled softly and saluted Wang Junlin and said, "Meier, meet my brother-in-law." The smile was beautiful and the voice was sweet, so sweet that Zhang Tiangang, who was not far away, felt as if he was in a trance.
However, Wang Junlin seemed not to be affected by anything. He nodded with a smile and said, "We haven't seen you for a few years, but Meier has become even more beautiful."
Su Meier cutely stuck out her tongue at Wang Junlin without saying anything, giving people an extremely pure feeling.
Wang Junlin suddenly smiled with emotion, waved his hand and asked Shen Guo'er to bring a low table and a few futons. He asked the Spring and Autumn Messenger and Su Mei'er to sit opposite him calmly, while he sat on the other side, with Shen Guo'er acting as The maid brought the barbecue and wine one by one.
"What is this, with such a strange fragrance?" The Spring and Autumn Messenger's eyes were always on Wang Junlin. His eyes were as sharp as lightning, but also extremely deep. He glanced at the barbecue indifferently and said this first sentence.
Wang Junlin smiled and handed over two skewers of mutton. Shen Guoer had already poured the wine. Wang Junlin invited the Spring and Autumn Messenger and Su Meier to taste the delicious food.
The Spring and Autumn Messenger shook his head, obviously having no intention of eating or drinking.
Wang Junlin picked up the barbecue and ate a piece of meat himself, a smile that was difficult for others to detect flashed deep in his eyes.
"Brother-in-law, I want to eat that skewer of meat on your hand!" Su Meier suddenly slid up from her position, and like an elf, came behind Wang Junlin, and lay on Wang Junlin's chest without any hesitation. Shoulders.
Wang Junlin's expression remained unchanged, while Shen Guoer next to him was so angry that murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Su Meier, however, always acted as if no one was there. She took the roast meat from Wang Junlin's hand with her little hands and said, "The meat in my brother-in-law's hands must be the most delicious."
"This is lamb meat, which is relatively fresh and tender, but mutton is always difficult to digest, especially for women. Eating too much mutton is not good." Wang Junlin said while picking up another skewer of meat and eating by himself. Got up.
If one didn't know about Wang Junlin's relationship with the other party, the movements, expressions and demeanor of him and Su Meier at this moment would be very similar to a younger sister acting coquettishly towards her brother.
