Chapter 72
There is no direct horse-drawn carriage from Wuling City to Luoyuan Village, so they have to transit in Qingjiang City.Qin Zheng simply rented a horse and galloped along the road.The wind was blowing violently, and the scenery around her was retreating rapidly. Qin Zheng was a little lost on the bumpy horseback.

"Xiao'er——" the dismounted horse suddenly raised its hooves and neighed. She came back to her senses and saw a carriage approaching at high speed in front of her.

"What a handsome riding skill!" Someone in the car praised loudly.

Qin Zheng smiled, slowed down the speed of the horse, and began to walk slowly.It is the cool weather in early autumn, and the leaves of the trees on both sides of the road have begun to turn yellow slightly. When the wind blows, a few leaves occasionally fall down, and the horseshoes trample and crush them into mud.

Taking off the water bag around his waist and taking a few sips of water, Qin Zheng wiped the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand, feeling that such a leisurely ride on a horse is very pleasant, if it was not so leisurely in the past, even after today, I don’t know if it will be tomorrow live.Qin Zheng sighed and forced herself not to think about those days anymore. It's best to forget them all. Anyway, I can't go back. The most important thing is to start living well again.

After walking for another distance, gradually, I heard the faint sound of roaring water coming from ahead. Qin Zheng thought about it, and rode his horse to follow the sound of water to find it. It rushed down from the mountain, hitting the rocks all the way, like thunder, and reflected the echo in the valley, the sound shook the sky and the earth.

This is the waterfall Diewu Feixu said in the book of thousands of miles last time that she wanted to see the waterfall, right?It is indeed spectacular.As he got closer, the splash of water hit his face, and his face was cold and wet.Probe again to see, a pool of deep blue water, as moist as oil.Qin Zheng couldn't help but got off the horse, tied the horse, walked to the edge of the deep pool, scooped up a handful of water and took a sip. It was cold, sweet and refreshing, so he took off the water bag around his waist and poured it into the water. Take out the residual water inside and fill a bag full of water from the pool.

Qin Zheng played in the water for a long time, and then he caught fish from the pool and grilled it.I don't know if it's because of the freezing cold of the pool, but the fish here are not big, but the meat is extremely tender and delicious. Qin Zheng ate several of them by himself, not to mention how much the gluttonous crystal beetle ate. !
Play enough, eat enough, drink enough.It was past noon when Qin Zheng arrived at Qingjiang City, but did not stay in the city. He just inquired about the direction and rode to Luoyuan Village. The surrounding scenery could not be seen clearly, only the lights in the village were like fireflies.

Knocking on the door of a villager, Qin Zheng smiled and asked people where Sister Luo lived.

"Oh, you are looking for Liu Luoshi, right? She lives next door to me." The villagers were having dinner, and the old woman who came out to open the door was still holding bamboo chopsticks.

Qin Zheng thanked her, and then went to knock on Liu Luoshi's door, only to hear a loud voice from inside: "The door is open, come in."

Pushing the door open, Qin Zheng saw a woman sitting at the table peeling beans by the bright light in the room. At this moment, her face turned around, and she could see how similar her eyebrows and eyes were to Mrs. Luo's. very similar.

"What do you want from me?" Seeing that the person who came in was someone he didn't know, Liu Luo frowned slightly.

"I have a letter from your sister who asked me to bring it to you." Qin Zheng took out the letter and handed it over.

"My sister?" Liu Luoshi wiped his hands on the apron, took the letter suspiciously, opened it by the light, and after a while, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and said to Qin Zheng, "Don't laugh at me, We haven't seen each other for ten years."

Qin Zheng nodded, seeing that he didn't want to stay for a long time, so he wanted to leave.

"Wait, my sister mentioned you in the letter, saying that your culinary skills are not bad, let me give you some pointers. Besides, I have nothing to repay you for sending letters from all the way. I'll teach you some cooking skills in return." Liu Luoshi hurriedly stopped Qin Zheng who had already turned around.

"Mention of me?" Qin Zheng was stunned.That day she clearly saw Mrs. Luo picked out a letter from a pile of letters that seemed to have been written long ago and asked her to send it. How could she mention herself?
"Yes, I mentioned you." Liu Luoshi had returned to normal at this time, and she seemed to be a little colder than Mrs. Luo.She first looked Qin Zheng up and down, and then said: "Although I want to teach you, I don't know what your current cooking skills are. How about it, I was going to cook dinner, and now you can cook whatever you want." Give me a taste of two dishes."

Cooking is not a problem for Qin Zheng now, she agreed casually, rolled up her sleeves and turned into the kitchen, made three dishes and one soup out of the existing vegetables and meat from the kitchen.

"This beef is not cut properly." Liu Luoshi just picked up a chopstick of shredded beef and tasted it, then shook his head and said, "Cut the beef horizontally, cut the pig obliquely, and cut the chicken vertically. There is something wrong with your cutting method."

She said, went to pick up another chopsticks of multicolored shredded radish, she didn't eat it, she just put it in front of her eyes and put it down, said: "Look at the cut lengths of radishes are different, how can it taste good?"

Liu Luoshi was also not interested in tasting dishes, so he just said to Qin Zheng lightly: "Hasn't my sister taught you knife skills? How can a chef improve his cooking skills if he can't even cut vegetables well?"

Qin Zheng shook her head when she heard the words. Mrs. Luo did not teach her knife skills, but she didn't understand the relationship between poorly cut vegetables and the taste. At most, it was just ugly and did not affect eating.

Seeing her puzzled look, Liu Luoshi explained: "If the meat is cut in the wrong way, it will be too old for cooking, and this plate of multicolored shredded radishes, if you cut them in different lengths and thicknesses, the heat will be different when frying." , The taste is different depending on the depth of salt. Cooking is not difficult, but the basics must be learned well. Knife skills are the first step. I don’t think I have anything to teach you, so I will teach you knife skills.”

"Okay." Qin Zheng nodded.

Liu Luoshi said again: "It just so happens that my husband has been away on business for a few days and has not returned, so I will stay with you for a few days. I will get up early tomorrow morning to teach you knife skills, and I will leave after I have practiced. Now I am going to redo some dishes. You are running around." It's been a hard day, so wash up and go to bed early after eating." After she finished speaking, she poured a cup of tea for Qin Zheng, and went out of the kitchen by herself.

After a while, there was a mouth-watering aroma from the kitchen. Qin Zheng had already digested the fish he ate for lunch, and now he felt unbearably hungry.After waiting for a while, Liu Luoshi brought out three dishes and one soup. The dishes were exactly the same as what she made, but the appearance was different, much prettier than what she made before.Taste it again, the taste is even more delicious, and only then do we know that knife skills are really important.
