Back in the 1980s, hiking in the mountains was also a way of life

Chapter 575 Agreed plan and ambushed each other
Everyone had rice for dinner, or the rice stewed by Wang An.

In fact, in that era, the normal way to cook rice was to scoop it up in water. However, in later generations, this method is rarely seen. The main reason is that it is more troublesome to cook rice in this way.

The method is to put rice and water into a pot and boil them. When the water boils, scoop out the half-cooked rice with a strainer and put it into a sieve. Then scoop out the rice soup and put it into a basin.

Finally, boil water again and steam the rice for about ten to twenty minutes.

Of course, you don't have to steam it, in which case you just need to clean the pot and then heat it up by dry-heating it.

When heating the pot, you must control the heat well. Just make sure it is hot, and then turn off the heat immediately. Remember, turn off the heat, completely!

Finally, pour the half-cooked rice into the pot and simmer it for ten to twenty minutes.

Doing this has an additional benefit, which is that you can eat the most original and authentic "pot crunchy" food.

The "pot crackling" thing, which is called "pot crust" in other places, is actually the layer of dry rice particles under the rice that sticks to the pot.

But in Northeast China, this thing has no other name, it is just called "pot creaky". If the pot is too hot, it is called "hu creaky".

In the Northeast, there are four major noises: the creaking of shovels and pots, the chopping of saw blades, the braying of donkeys, and the howling of children.

From the ranking, we can see how powerful the noise made by the "shovel and pot squeaking" is.

Generally speaking, one must be present when making "shui laofan", otherwise, the rice will become porridge if it is overcooked.

However, these two methods of making rice have one common advantage, that is, there is rice soup to drink, and you can also use the rice soup to soak the rice.

As for stewing rice, most people cannot grasp the ratio of rice and water, and it is also difficult to control the heat. If you are not careful, the rice will be a "crunchy" pot or even a "black charcoal" pot.

The reason for this is that although Northeast China produced rice at that time, the staple food was corn.

If you eat less, you will have less experience. If the rice is burnt, you will be very sorry for the waste. Therefore, the safest way to cook is to scoop the rice into water and then steam it.

Of course, Wang An would never cook by scooping rice with water, because what Wang An fears most is trouble.

Rice is simmered at the bottom of the pot, and meat is steamed on top. The meat is the smoked bear meat.

Then mix the stewed meat into the rice, and take a bite of garlic or green onion with every bite of rice. The taste is simply incomparable!
To use the local language, there is really no cure!
Braised meat may be a specialty of Northeast China, and the method of making it is quite simple.

Cut the meat into small pieces, the smaller the better, it is best to use it as stuffing, add soybean paste and chopped green onions, and steam it directly.

If conditions permit, it would be even more perfect if you beat a few eggs and mix them in.

I can’t eat enough. I simply can’t eat enough!
The meal was finished in less than ten minutes, which was quite quick.

After dinner, everyone hid the golden eggs in the bushes where the golden rice and golden powder were, and then returned to the tent.

Comrade Big Eyes is still in a coma, and whether he can wake up depends entirely on himself.

Given the conditions in the mountains, if you get injured or have any other problems, there is really no other way except to rely on yourself.

After calculating the time, assuming the fastest round trip time is four and a half hours, if Ma Zhengshan and others come, everyone needs to be ready by 11: p.m.

After everyone discussed how to deal with Ma Zhengshan and others at night, He Liang suddenly sighed and said:

"It would have been better if we had brought some mines before we came here and buried them around here. Then we could have blown up everyone and made them behave themselves." However, as soon as He Liang finished speaking, no one in the crowd responded to his words. To be more precise, no one even looked at him.

The main thing is that in the current situation, there are no landmines, not to mention grenades. Even for 81-bar bullets, each person has less than two magazines left.

He Liang felt embarrassed when he found that no one was paying attention to him, so he shouted in dissatisfaction:
"What's wrong with you? Am I wrong?"

Sun Nian nodded and said:

"Yeah, Brother He, I think you're right. Everything you said is right. After that, let's go to sleep. Just wake us up before 11 o'clock."

As they were talking, Sun Nian and Zhang Shuya walked towards the tent where they were sleeping, while Wang An and others also lowered their heads and walked towards another tent, leaving only He Liang and the unconscious Comrade Big Eyes in this tent.

After everyone had left, He Liang finally reacted and shouted anxiously:

"Leave one of you to chat with me, I'm too sleepy if I'm alone."

Wu Dong said without turning his head:
"Wake up that guy underground and let him get up and talk to you."

It has to be said that Wu Dong's words sounded like a joke, so everyone burst into laughter.

Of course, having said that, Wu Dong would not do so, because in these mountains, everyone would take turns to keep watch at night, and two people keeping watch for two hours would be just enough.

Wu Dong and He Liang were in the same group, so Wu Dong just went to pee and then turned back to the tent.

Wu Dong and He Liang said something, but no one listened. Anyway, the person who woke Wang An up was not these two people, but the fifth brother Wang Li.

Even though the temperature was above zero at night in this season, it was still quite cold. So as soon as Wang An got out of the quilt, he was instantly frozen to death.

At this time, Wang Li suddenly said to Wang An:

"Fourth brother, the man that my eldest sister captured has a high fever now. My uncle gave him some honeysuckle and coptis chinensis soup, but it didn't seem to help."

Nowadays, if someone has a high fever, the most commonly used medicine is Chinese herbal medicine.

In extremely special cases, that is, when Chinese herbal medicine does not work, "incense paste" will be used.

Of course, if the village doctor happens to have the medicine "Aspirin", most people will give up the "incense paste" and choose to take a tablet of Aspirin.

In this day and age, the drug Analgin is simply a miracle drug that can cure almost any disease. However, this drug is generally not available for sale, so most people still use herbal medicine.

Wang An paused for a moment, then said without a trace of emotion:

"Let's leave it to fate. Anyway, we have done what we should do. Let's love each other to death."

After Wang An's rebirth, although he has changed a lot in terms of human touch, he really doesn't care about people like Big Eyes.

Speaking from the bottom of his heart, Wang An thinks it would be better if Big Eyes died, so that he could have less worries!

Where is all the mercy?
When the Wang An brothers walked out of the tent, everyone had already gathered together. According to the plan agreed upon before, everyone divided into two teams and ambushed separately.
