Chapter 125 Street Market
Yuli, also known as "Lop Nur", is named after "Lop Nur", which means "a lake with rich water and grass".
There is a saying that see Anxi for Huaxia roast sheep, and Yuli for Anxi roast sheep.
The roasted whole lamb in Yuli, Bazhou, Anxi is really the best of the best.
"Why is Yuli known as the best roasted sheep in Anxi? Because there are large areas of licorice, apocynum, ephedra and cistanche growing in Yuli County, which become the main forage grass for sheep, so the Lop Nur mutton is tender and delicious, without smell, and nutritious. The value is comparable to that of Tarim venison. The men in Yuli are basically barbecue chefs, and they are skilled in their skills. They select the top-grade Luobu lamb in Yuli and use a special formula to roast it in an alkaline soil pit, which has a unique flavor.”
Yu Yue heard people talking about it in Urumqi, so he asked the little guy and Jiang Rou if they wanted to eat.
Jiang Rouzi is easy-going and can say anything.
When the little guy heard that there was something delicious, he answered crisply: "Go!"
So, the car detoured 400 kilometers to the south.
Yuli is a small county, and it was still dark when we arrived, but there was no one on the street, and all the shops were closed, like an empty city.
Yu Yue and his party just felt strange.
I heard that it is rich in mineral resources and tourism resources. It is known as the "back garden" of Korla, and the 218 line runs through the whole area. There are not a few tourists and gourmets who come here every year. It stands to reason that it shouldn't be so deserted.
However, in this way, let alone eating sheep, I am afraid there is not even a place to rest.
Seeing that the little guy was about to cry with hunger, Jiang Rou took out yogurt snacks to comfort her.
But the little guy was only waiting to eat the sheep, and she pushed the other things away with her little hands when they were fed to her mouth.
Yu Yue can only drive the car forward to see if there are roast sheep restaurants nearby, whether it is authentic or not is another matter, at least give the little guy an explanation.
I don't know how far I drove, it was dark, and there was nothing along the way.
It is really desolate with no front and no village and no shop behind.
Suddenly, there was a gust of wind, and it was unknown whether it was dust or something, filling the sky and the earth in an instant.
The headlights could not reach five meters.
With such a poor view, even Yu Yue dared not drive again, after all, he was not the only one in the car, so he quickly pulled over and turned on the double flashing lights.
Sandstorms come and go quickly.
Vision returned to normal.
Although the vision at night was not good, it was even worse just now, and it was really scary.
As soon as the wind and sand passed, lights appeared ahead.
And there was a lot of people.
The lights illuminated the black.
Human voices made the night lively.
The front seems to be a market town, a bustling night market.
However……
The little guy stopped whining.
The black cat pricked up its ears and tail.
Even Jiang Rou felt something was wrong.
She asked with a little hair in her heart: "I remember that there was nothing in front of me just now, right?"
Yu Yue's face showed a hint of amusement: "It wasn't there just now, but now it is. Go, go in and have a look, anyway, there is nothing left and right."
Jiang Rou: "..."
...
When the strange wind and sand suddenly blew up, a man and a woman were walking on the road, and they happened to meet each other.
The man immediately hugged the woman and covered their heads with windbreakers.
The wind and sand passed, and the men and women separated. The woman blushed and said to the person in front of her, "Senior Brother Feng, thank you."
Brother Feng's face was stern, and he replied lightly: "Young sister He is welcome."
Junior Sister He suddenly said in shock: "Look, senior brother, there seems to be a small town over there... I don't remember it just now, why did it grow out of thin air?"
Senior Brother Feng turned his head to look, nodded, still indifferent: "The master said that there is something wrong here, and told you and me to come and investigate. Now it seems that there is something strange. Come on, let's go in."
Junior Sister He seemed a little timid: "Is there any danger in there?"
Brother Feng said: "A strange place must be a dangerous place. But the teacher told me that the Martial Dao Conference will be held soon, and martial artists from all over the world will gather in Anxi. Since my party is the host, it has the responsibility of guarding it. Don't let it happen because of some small disturbances." It has affected the reputation of the faction and made people laugh at it for nothing."
Junior Sister He nodded obediently.
The two walked into the small town one after the other.
The town is indeed not big, there is only one street.
Although there is only one street market, it is brightly lit like daytime, and the restaurants all over the street are full of diners. People are bustling with each other, greeting, trading, and chatting with each other. It seems to be a bit more lively than a big city.
The man and woman were walking on the crowded street, hearing the yelling of the shopkeepers, the talking and laughing of the customers, and smelling the aroma of food in their noses. They felt that this was an ordinary town, but it was extra lively, and there seemed to be nothing special about it. .
Junior Sister He looked around and said as she walked, "Brother, there doesn't seem to be anything weird here."
Brother Feng said: "If the weirdness is clearly visible, then it is not weird. Is it necessary for the master to send us to investigate?"
Junior Sister He stuck out her tongue, not daring to say any more.
However, from the street to the end of the street, nothing was found.
Junior Sister He couldn't help but said: "Brother, I'm hungry, can I find a restaurant for something to eat?"
Brother Feng reproached, "Isn't it not long after eating, why are you hungry again?"
After finishing speaking, I also felt that my stomach was empty, as if I hadn't eaten after eating, especially the smell of meat that filled the street, it was simply mesmerizing.
Seeing the woman's pitiful appearance, Senior Brother Feng took advantage of the opportunity to find a step down: "Well, finding a shop to rest and ask people is also a way to find clues."
Junior Sister He cheered, but was shut up by Senior Brother Feng.
So, the two started looking for a place to eat and rest.
Unexpectedly, this market is so lively that even several shops are full.
I finally found a restaurant with a seat, but I had to share a table with others.
What can I do, I have to agree.
After some coordination from the shopkeeper, the two brothers and sisters were seated.
There is also a man and a woman at the same table, and there is also a child and a black cat.
The black cat hid under the table and frightened Junior Sister He when it moved its nest.
The woman opposite apologized to her. She just wanted to say that it was okay, but found that her brother's eyes were wrong. She stared and looked at him again and again, and she seemed to be moved, so she couldn't help "humming" coldly.
There is only one dish on the menu, which is roast lamb.
Junior Sister He frowned while holding the menu, and asked the waiter, "Is there nothing else here but roast lamb?"
The curly-haired, high-nosed, brown-eyed waiter replied: "There are whole sheep, half sheep, and one-third sheep. Our roast sheep tastes good. It's no problem for two people to eat half."
Junior Sister He wanted to ask Senior Brother for advice, but Senior Brother Feng was absent-minded and ignored her at all.
She said angrily: "Roast a whole lamb!"
The waiter asked: "Can the whole lamb be eaten?"
Junior Sister He said: "If you can't finish eating, you can't eat anything, right?"
The group at the same table seemed to have just arrived, and the food hadn't been served yet.
"Aren't you a local?" After waiting for a while, Senior Brother Feng asked.
