Chapter 1193 Food

Nanyun, located in the southwestern border of China, is a border area since ancient times.

As early as the Tang Dynasty, Luo Feng, the King of Nanzhao, sent an envoy to Chang'an to pay homage to the King of Tang. When he met in the court, the King of Tang asked: "Where are you?"

The envoy pointed out from a distance and said, "The clouds are under the south."

Therefore, in the minds of the court, "Nanyun" became synonymous with the southwestern border of the motherland.

As the border of the motherland, Nagyun is adjacent to many countries, including Vietnam, Myanmar, and Laos. The border line within the province is more than 4,000 kilometers, and there are 25 border counties that junction with the Three Kingdoms.

This time, Zhang Kun is going to visit conveniently, Maguan County.

Maguan County is one of the counties under Wenshan Prefecture. It is a relatively poor county that integrates borders, ethnic groups, poverty and mountainous areas.

However, none of these are the most important. The most important thing is that Maguan County is the closest county to Vietnam, and the straight line distance from the border is even less than fifty kilometers.

Moreover, there are a large number of minefields in Maguan County from the middle of the border, one of which is part of the planned mission in the mine-sweeping mission participated by Thunderstorm, which is where Zhang Kun will eventually go.

Zhang Kun set out from Nanhu and took a bus to Kunming, the capital of Nanyun Province, and then immediately turned to Maguan.

However, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon when the car arrived in Kunming, and when it arrived in Maguan, night fell.

At this point, and so late, the night was dark again. Even if you were in a hurry, it would be inconvenient to do something. So Zhang Kun found a hotel and stayed in first.

The next day, early in the morning.

As soon as the sky shone brightly, Zhang Kun woke up from his deep sleep.

However, before Zhang Kun opened his eyes, a trace of noise came from outside.

Zhang Kun opened his eyes and sat up, stretched his waist wide, then lifted the quilt, walked to the window, opened the curtains, and opened the window, and suddenly there was a large area of ​​noise coming to his face.

Below the window is a busy street, with various stalls on both sides of the road, and shouting sounds are constantly coming to ears.

On the road, there were many pedestrians, and occasionally a few motorcycles were interspersed. The sound of dripping sounds kept warning the pedestrians ahead to give way.

Zhang Kun glanced at the cell phone at the bedside. It was only six o'clock now, but the entire Maguan County was already active.

He took a deep breath of the fresh morning air, and then Zhang Kun washed up and dressed in the noise that seemed to be full of vitality, picked up his travel bag and went downstairs to check out.

Walking out of the hotel, standing at the door and looking at the pedestrians in front of him, suddenly, Zhang Kun's nose moved, and a stream of ethereal fragrance came to his nose on the main road.

Zhang Kun sniffed, then looked around for a while.

The stalls are mostly food-based in the morning, some sell various fresh vegetables, some of them also have ingredients such as beef and sheep, but more of them are breakfast shops.

Most of the fragrances Zhang Kun smelled came from those breakfast shops.

Because after advancing to the unity of man and nature, Zhang Kun's sense of smell has also been greatly improved, so he can smell far more and farther than ordinary people.

Zhang Kun's nose swayed for a while, and then quickly identified the taste that had been completely mixed together. Most of the buns, fried dough sticks, porridge and rice noodles were used to breakfasts, but there were a few flavors in it, but it seemed like Zhang Kun had never smelled it before.

This made Zhang Kun, who has always regarded himself as a foodie, unable to bear it.

If you haven't smelled it, it means you haven't eaten it.

And you must try something you haven't eaten before.

You should know that Zhang Kun’s biggest wish in his life was to eat food all over the world. In the past, whenever Zhang Kun went to a new place, his first thing was always to look for local specialty foods.

Specialty breakfast, street food, traditional local food, etc.

Although Zhang Kun’s main purpose this time was to help the thunderstorm fulfill his unfulfilled wish, as the saying goes, people are iron rice and steel, and they don’t eat for a meal and are hungry.

This matter needs to be done, but you have to eat it.

Besides, sharpening the knife will not delay the chopping of wood. Only when you are full can you have the energy to work. I guess it has been waiting for the thunderstorm for so long, so I don’t have to worry about this moment.

Thinking of this, Zhang Kun glanced at the thunderstorm that was silently following, then greeted him, and walked towards the direction where the fragrances that had never smelled had come.

Following the fragrance, Zhang Kun first found a barbecue stall. The barbecue stalls sold not the common beef kebabs, but grilled fish.

The fish pieces that are separated from left and right are divided into two halves, folded together from the head to tail, sandwiched in the middle with two pieces of bamboo, tied with a few green grass, and then baked on charcoal fire.

Standing in front of the barbecue stall, a very tempting fragrance rushed towards Zhang Kun.

The fish is tilapia, which Zhang Kun can recognize at a glance.

But this fragrance is definitely not just the aroma of tilapia barbecue.

Zhang Kun shook his nose violently, but he still couldn't tell the specific source of the fragrance. He could only confirm that it was indeed from the grilled fish in front of him.

Zhang Kun couldn't understand it, but fortunately, Zhang Kun was also a person who was shameless to ask. If he couldn't understand it, he would ask. Moreover, he didn't need to ask others, just ask Lei Yu. He was a local. Although he was not from Maguan County, he was at least in Wenshan Prefecture.

Zhang Kun took the Bluetooth headphones in his exit pocket and asked, "Thunder Rain, do you know why this grilled fish is so fragrant?"

After hearing Zhang Kun’s question, Lei Yu, who had been silently following Zhang Kun, turned his head and looked at it, and then casually said: “This is lemongrass grilled fish, a Dai delicacy….”

Before Lei Yu could finish his words, Zhang Kun's eyes directly focused on the green grass tied to the grilled fish.

So that's it, lemongrass.

I originally thought I was just tied up a few green grass and fixed the fish pieces, but now it seems that the source of the fragrance is probably these lemongrass.

Fish are good fish, and grass is naturally good grass. Even if it is just based on this fragrance, it will make people have a big appetite. However, the problem is that Zhang Kun doesn’t like eating fish.

Looking at the fragrant fish on the barbecue rack, Zhang Kun's mouth moved, but in the end he didn't buy a piece to taste the taste.

Let’s take a look at other delicacies first. If you are not full at that time, you can come back and try the taste of this grilled fish.

There are many kinds of specialty foods in each place, and a person’s belly is limited, so you must have a choice of food and drink and give priority to tasting your favorite things.

Temporarily giving up the fragrant grilled fish, Zhang Kun continued to walk down, and soon came to a breakfast shop again.

This shop is relatively simple. There is no charcoal fume. There is only a pot of prepared seasonings on a table. Then there is a small wooden box next to it, with straw covered with straw, and some piglets that have not yet opened their eyes curled up together.

There were two people sitting on the table and chairs in this shop. They each had a basin of seasonings and a white plate with more than a dozen small piglets in small wooden boxes on it.

A diner picked up chopsticks and picked up a little piglet from the plate. The piglet squeaked and let out a painful cry.

Then the diner put the piglet in the sauce plate, and the piglet squeaked again. Finally, the diner put the piglet covered with sauce into his mouth, and it was...

Thunder rain next to him saw Zhang Kun standing still, and explained again: "This is..."

However, as soon as Lei Yu opened his mouth, Zhang Kun turned around and continued to walk forward without saying a word.

What this is? Maybe Zhang Kun really didn't understand at the beginning, but when he saw the eating process of diners, Zhang Kun would not know.

Even for the ignorant Zhang Kun, the name of Sanzhi, has heard that it is one of the top ten banned dishes in China.

It is said that this dish is very nourishing, but it takes great courage to really eat it. Anyway, Zhang Kun definitely dares to eat it, and he doesn't even want to hear that name.

Continue down, and then come to a fried shop. The shop sells not fried foods such as fried dough sticks, but a pot of white meat strips. The white meat strips are placed in the oil pan, and a tempting smell of meat comes to your face.

"This is called bamboo worms in our place." Lei Yu explained in a timely manner.

However, Zhang Kun took a look and turned around and left.

This is the first time Zhang Kun has heard of the name bamboo insect, but in Zhang Kun’s hometown, this thing is usually a single word.

And when Zhang Kun thought of that word, he really had no desire to eat.

Keep going.

The green body kept twisting, with burrs.

“This is a fried caterpillar.”

“This is fried crickets.”

"This is……."

More than ten minutes later, Zhang Kun finally finished walking the entire street and stopped. He turned his head blankly to look at the thunder rain and said with a sad look on his face.

"Don't you order normal specialty food?"
