Chapter 194 [The Roast Sheep Competition?] Ask for a monthly pass
The pearl of Lukuhaizi actually looks at a foreign boy like this? Moreover, he is still a pretty boy. He is neither dark enough nor fat enough. He does not meet our Mosuo people's standards of a "beautiful man". Is this justified?
Zhou Yi, who was immersed in the dance, suddenly didn't know that many young people from the Mosuo tribe had begun to look at him with less friendly eyes. Even Liu Ke and Zhang Zhao saw something was wrong. Unfortunately, they were too far away from Zhou Yi. There was no way to notify him.
It wasn't until the song ended and the people around the bonfire dispersed that Liu Ke patted Zhou Yi on the shoulder and said, "Brother, you really are the one...it's so noisy that even the pearls of Luku Haizi stare at you. .Good guy, you are really in the limelight now..."
"That's right. Ordinarily, brother Zhou, you should be an ugly man in the eyes of the Mosuo people... It seems that I will have to practice singing and dancing more in the future, otherwise I will waste this 'beautiful man' The appearance..."
Zhang Zhao had deep feelings of sadness and felt that he had been treated unfairly.
"Why, did Dolma look at me just now?"
Zhou Yi was annoyed. When he jumped to the climax just now, he had already faintly touched something. If the music continued for a while, maybe he would be able to make a breakthrough in his leisurely heart. However, the music stopped suddenly at the critical moment, and he suddenly stopped. This subtle feeling was interrupted. As for Dolma's performance and everyone's jealousy, how could he know?
"Brother, you are so good. You can actually dance to such a high level that even the most beautiful woman in Luku Haizi looks at you. You're convinced? I'm convinced..." Liu Ke raised his thumb. He chuckled and said, "But it's no wonder. Miss Liu is not much worse than her. Brother, you have your heart, so of course you don’t care about her. Come on, come on. Drink and drink, and there will be barbecue for you later..."
The washed and skinned Tibetan blue black sheep has been placed on the grill. Eight Mosuo youths squatted beside the four fire pits, waiting for the flames to rise and the black smoke to dissipate, and the roasting of the sheep was about to begin.
The Mosuo people grill the whole lamb on skewers. In order to prevent the outer layer of lamb from being scorched during the barbecue, two people are required to serve a sheep. One person is responsible for turning the grill quickly, and the other person keeps applying vegetable oil. This way it is grilled. The sheep are extremely fragrant and fat, but they are too greasy. Foreign tourists like Zhou Yi and others will feel full after eating only a few pieces.
Seeing that the firewood in the fire pit was cooked and there was no more black smoke coming out, several Mosuo young people were about to start roasting. Suddenly Tashi walked to a fire pit and said: "Get out of the way, I will roast this sheep."
"Haha, well, we are in for a treat today." The two Mosuo young men were not dissatisfied with Tashi's rude interruption. Instead, they stepped aside with a smile.
In the Mosuo Village, which still retains the living habits of a matriarchal society, men must not only be brave, but also be able to take on the tasks that women should do in the eyes of foreigners, such as barbecue and wine... Only by doing these well He is a good man in the eyes of Mosuo people.
Tashi's barbecue skills are famous throughout Lukuzihai. Not only can he roast a whole lamb by himself, but he also uses less vegetable oil than ordinary people, and his control over the heat is even more subtle. It is said that all the girls who have eaten his barbecue are She fell in love with him without exception, but unfortunately he only wanted to pick off Zhuoma, the pearl of Lukuzihai.
"Hey, that Han brother... your Guozhuang dance is more authentic than us Mosuo people, even Tibetans, I am not as good as you; but can you barbecue? Do you dare to follow me? Compare?"
Tashi did not start barbecue immediately, but smiled and challenged Zhou Yi to compete with him in barbecue.
"Yes, Han boys, if you want to become a man, then go ahead and fight! Even if you lose to Tashi, no one will laugh at you..." The Mosuo people who were watching suddenly burst into laughter, Everyone knew that Tashi wanted to prove himself in front of Dolma. Who made Lu Kuhaizi's pearl look at this Han 'ugly boy' with such eyes just now?
Here comes the drama. Both Liu Ke and Zhang Zhao looked at Tashi with sympathy. Why does this poor kid always hit the iron plate... Competing with Brother Zhou in a barbecue, isn't this seeking death?
Zhou Yi also laughed. If he were in the city, he would definitely not accept such a challenge, but in this Mosuo village, everyone is an open-minded man. If he hides it, he will be inferior, so he He stood up without hesitation and said: "Tashi, I know you are the leader among young people, but why do you want to challenge me? There must be a reason, right?"
Tashi is a very polite person. Although he is hostile to him because of Dolma, he will not be jealous and stumbling behind his back. Instead, he challenges him openly and openly. His attitude is also very kind, which fully promotes the great unity of the nation and the importance of society. He had a harmonious spirit, so Zhou Yi had no hostility towards him and just regarded this challenge as a game.
"Because you beat me in dancing and got Dolma's favor, so I'm not convinced."
Tashi looked at him and said: "I can't beat you in dancing, but I will definitely beat you in barbecue. Of course, if you don't know how to barbecue, we can also compete with others. I, Tashi, will not take advantage of you."
"A good man, quite upright!"
Zhou Yi nodded repeatedly, feeling that this friend was really worth making: "Okay, let's compete. But don't blame me if you lose, haha..." After saying that, he stepped forward and walked over, one of the people beside the fire pit When the Mosuo young people saw him coming, they immediately smiled and moved away. Some even said, "Come on, you must beat Tashi, buddy!"
"Okay, then I'll ask my buddy to help me find some pebbles. I want fist-sized ones. A few dozen pieces will be enough."
Zhou Yi patted the Mosuo young man on the shoulder, smiled and took over the sheep that had been put on the grill. However, he did not put it on the grill in a hurry, but picked up the barbecue fork and poked the sheep. Chrysanthemum, picked up a fire chopstick next to the fire pit, burned it red in the fire, and inserted it into the place where the sheep's belly was cut open. The Mosuo people do not disembowel the sheep when they kill it, but make a slit under the sheep's heart. As soon as he pierced the half-foot-long seam with a hot chopstick, the seam was locked, just like using a sewing needle to sew a hole in the clothes.
Tashi looked puzzled. But he didn't ask him. He just lowered his head and roasted his own sheep. His technique was indeed very deft. He turned the sheep over at a leisurely pace, using his long hands and long arms to flip it. He didn't hesitate to apply oil on one side of the sheep's body, and his hands cooperated tacitly, just like the best dance. Everyone looked at him closely, even the Mosuo young people in the other two fire pits temporarily stopped their hands and watched him intently. The game with Zhou Yi.
There were a lot of pebbles in Luku Haizi, but Zhou Yi wanted them to be as big as a fist. It still took the Mosuo young man more than ten minutes to get them back. Zhou Yi took the bags of pebbles, took them out one by one, and placed them next to the fire. Go on. Then put the goat on the grill.
His method of grilling meat is completely different from that of Tashi. Tashi keeps rotating the lamb body while applying oil. The direction of rotation is always towards one side, but his method is turning left and right, and the speed of rotation in both directions. It was completely different from the time; sometimes he would lift the lamb away from the grill and just rely on the power of his arms to rotate the roasted lamb above the grill. The fifty or sixty-pound goat was like a windmill in his hands, which was very impressive. It looks good, and no vegetable oil is used.
That's it for Liu Ke and Zhang Zhao, but the Mosuo people who have been around barbecue since they were born gradually started to look straight at it.
Can meat still be grilled like this?
They have been taught the art of barbecue by their elders since they were young. They know that even barbecue skewers will be burnt if they are not basted with oil at the same time, let alone roasting a whole lamb. Some of them are masters of barbecue and have mastered the fire techniques of Zhou Yi. I admire him very much. This Han man's method of rotating the roasted lamb is very unique, which allows him to ensure that the meat will not be scorched even if he does not apply oil for a period of time. However, the problem is that when rotating the lamb in this way, sometimes the roasted lamb is lifted off the grill. , although it is guaranteed not to be burnt, but when can the whole lamb be roasted?
This young man is still too flashy. Unlike Tashi who plays steadily and has deep foundation, it seems that this game can already determine the winner.
And just when the Mosuo barbecue masters thought that Zhou Yi was going to lose, Zhou Yi actually took the sheep off the grill...
"Wow...what is he doing? Don't you know that roasting a whole goat must be done in one go? If you take it off halfway, will the flavor of the roast be lost? It seems that he is really an amateur, not Tashi at all. My opponent..."
"Hey, these people still don't know how powerful Brother Zhou is, just wait and see."
The only people who had confidence in Zhou Yi in the field were Liu Ke and Zhang Zhao. They had seen Zhou Yi's mysterious methods and knew that even if ten Tashi lined up to come up, they would lose even in their underwear. Can't keep it.
"Whoosh!"
Under countless suspicious eyes, Zhou Yi suddenly stretched out his foot and kicked up a pebble that he had placed beside the fire.
This pebble was already roasted so hot, but it was not hot enough to boil an egg. It was just the right temperature! After being kicked up by him, it flew just behind the roasted lamb's chrysanthemums. He pushed it with his palm and the pebble was cooked. The pebbles were actually stuffed into the sheep’s belly!
The Mosuo brothers were all dumbfounded. Is this acrobatics or magic? It’s amazing!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh... Zhou Yi raised the roasted sheep with one hand and kicked his feet continuously. At the same time, his palms were like wind. He actually pushed more than fifty pebbles into the sheep's belly in a few minutes.
The time to witness the miracle has arrived... At this moment, all the Mosuo brothers unconsciously remembered the squinty-eyed magician who came across the strait and stole the show at CCAV's Spring Festival Gala... .
"He stuffed heated pebbles into the lamb's belly, so that he could use the heat on the stones to roast the lamb from the inside out? With the fire pit and grill, the lamb could be cooked quickly even without oil... .. Moreover, with these pebbles in the sheep's belly, the heat from the outside can be evenly absorbed, and the sheep's fat can be forced out from the inside out. There is no need to apply oil at all. After all, no matter how good the vegetable oil is, it will destroy it. The taste of the mutton itself..."
When it comes to barbecue, Tashi is also an expert, and he immediately understood Zhou Yi's intention; but he knew it, but he couldn't learn it. Zhou Yi's magic-like technique was not something ordinary people could master.
