Chapter 181 The Battle of Bison Valley (7)
When Wu Yonglin appeared in front of the group of people behind the earthen wall again, the sound of killing cattle and sheep came one after another. He was worried that no one would clean up this thing, but when he saw the scene in front of him, Wu Yonglin realized that he was a little worried.
The Wei Dynasty did not lack cows, but it was not allowed to kill cows. If the Wei Dynasty did not have self-defense, it would be a serious crime. Not only would the literati and doctors drool you, but it would also cause prison disasters. The rule of "20 sticks to the spine, and one year of service" was placed there, not just as a decoration.
Therefore, the heroes of Liangshan always say "Waiter, come half a pound of beef." It is just to satisfy their mouths. The real situation is completely nonsense. For example, the high-ranking official (emperor) may not be able to eat beef several times a year.
The beef that the official family has been talking about was probably tampered with by the people below. A cow usually lasts for 40 years from birth to normal death. The official family probably has not been in power for such a long time. Those cows that die of illness and old age cannot be sent to the palace. Therefore, the high-ranking official family can only eat quietly and secretly. Once the filling is exposed, it is not something you can withstand. Those censors are worried that they have nothing to do. Doing this is like poking a hornet's nest. Those flies are constantly flying around in your ears, which can make you vomit blood.
Without a cattle killing, it does not mean that no one will not kill a cattle. Wang Butcher is one of them. The skills passed down from generation to generation and the tools that can still be used today. Due to the limited work in a year or no business comes to the door, a layer of dark red rust has already grown on a cattle ear knife, which makes his heart seem to be bleeding. When he escaped with Wu Yonglin, he reluctantly brought the things left by his ancestors. He had to find a pig to practice when he had the opportunity, otherwise he felt that he had no need to survive.
In the valley where the Westerners were escaping the pursuit of the Westerners, Zhang Hu finally found a half-dead wild boar to sharpen his knife, but this could not raise his desire at all. It just stopped his idea of committing suicide. His life was always buried in a kind of talentless butcher who had no cow killed was like a body that had been hollowed out by someone, leaving only a soulless shell.
Looking at the distinctive plateau yaks driven back by Yue Fei and others, Wang Butcher's eyes turned green. The first thing he said when he went up was: "Can these cattle be killed?"
After Yue Fei gave him an expression that he likes to do whatever he wants, Wang Butcher was excited and burst into tears. Is it just for this moment that the waiting for decades?
There are surprises everywhere in life, and there is necessity in many accidental things. Wang butcher first thanked the heaven, then the earth, and finally Wu Yonglin. Killing cattle must be rituals. In this place where everything is missing, he had to keep everything simple, but some pious rituals must be there, such as sacrifice knife. They believe that any living creature has a soul, and the cow is no exception. They simply put a basin of clear water, wash all the stains on the blade, and then wipe the blade with yellow paper, which means "temptation of ghosts and moving houses", and then burn the yellow paper to ashes. When those so-called monsters and monsters are snatching paper money, they will dance a "ghost-exorcist dance" and this ritual is officially completed. Because only in this way can the next bull soul have a place on the bull-killing knife. If this is ignored, the overflowing bull soul is likely to invade the butcher's body.
After the ceremony, the next step was to have real physical work. In front of Wang Butcher, he only saw a mountain of meat. Those things would never fool the mouth. These things were full and strong. Perhaps it was the last night of this life. Everyone's wishes were satisfied. Some people just wanted to fill their stomachs. Wang Butcher could kill a few cows quickly, and this life was full of wishes.
Killing cattle is not as particular as killing pigs. Killing pigs often requires a large pot of boiling water. After putting blood on the pigs, you have to use a spatula to remove the pig hair on it with hot water. The pig skin is used as the entrance. It tastes tasteless and it is a pity to discard it. But the ancients loved that thing. When they could not eat a meal of meat every day, only those pig skins that were not easy to chew will make them feel that the meat they had just eaten is real, which left them with a full taste of meat.
The chewyness of beef in the mouth is the reason why these people are happy. Every time they eat beef, the Wei people feel that while eating the flesh and blood of the northern nomadic peoples, they have the heroic spirit of swallowing the world and being able to fantasize to this extent. Even Wu Yonglin feels that he is inferior to him.
Cowhide is more expensive than pigskin. Cowhide can be made into cowhide armor. Although wooden armor can withstand the impact of heavy cavalry, it is not conducive to movement. Wearing those things weighing dozens of pounds is even more physically exhausting. When the opponent's second round of heavy cavalry impacts, it often makes yourself a living target. Cowhide armor is different. Wearing those things will undoubtedly give you a second life on the battlefield. It can block swords and keep the cold. Compared with those cold iron armor, cowhide armor has a hint of humanity. Now some generals of the Wei Dynasty can rarely wear this thing to fight. In the Wei Dynasty, this thing is a rare item and is often priceless.
Killing a cow does not have as many "典王无王无王" as "典王无王", which emphasizes the beauty of "典王无王无王". It emphasizes the ability to reduce the pain of the cow, but also reduce the troubles of the butcher. A half-dead cow will cause great troubles to the people around you when he gets crazy. At this time, the butcher Wang is holding a very thin lancet that has just been sacrificed, but it is very sharp and can definitely break it. Before everyone can react, the lancet inserted into the cow's neck returns to his hands again. This is the unique skill that the butcher Wang is proud of. Others may need many knives to kill a cow, and one knife is enough.
Looking at the red bull blood flowing out, Wang Butcher smiled proudly. This time, it proved again that his sword was not old. The blood flowing out fell into the wooden barrel with salt water in advance. This would be the raw material for making "blood tofu". It was difficult to kill the cow. Wang Butcher Wang didn't want to waste any treasure that fell from the yak. He has been waiting for almost tens of millions of years today.
The subsequent process was very simple. The yak that never moved was stripped of its heavy cowhide. The next task of the butcher Wang was to break the cattle tripe, take out the internal organs and let the woman beside him clean it. He cut meat and pick bones next to him, and was very busy.
Wang Butcher Wang seemed to have found his goal in life. He killed ten cows in a row. He didn't feel tired at all. He smelled the scent of beef floating in the faraway pot and the hungry eyes that had already surrounded the outside of the pot. Wang Butcher Wang's actions were more swinging.
Of course, Wu Yonglin's specialty is Wu Yonglin's specialty. Even Erbao and A-san had never made this thing, so he had to watch and learn from the side. The first blood stream was not needed. When the blood water with oil and minced meat was poured over, the older generation beat their chests and stamped their feet, and they even wanted to scoop up in the ditch and drink it.
Wu Yonglin is a very particular person. He will constantly knock out the gray and black oil foam that floated up in the second round. Seeing that those unscrupulous guys really wanted to get gutter oil, he warned loudly that if he drank those, there would be no share of these people's beef tonight, so they could do it, which would prevent a crisis of diarrhea.
