Chapter 220 Thirteen Wonders of the Old Capital City
Today's capital base is more lively than before Bai Tang left, and exchanges of a competitive nature have officially begun.The base has set up ten arenas in the square at the entrance of the Forbidden City. Each stage has its own light effects, which are as cool as magic skills. The competition between ancient warriors is also very exciting. Although Qinggong has been lost today, it is still He has a light body technique that allows him to jump two to three meters high from the ground.Bai Tang watched with gusto, and she even saw many acquaintances, such as Tang Minglang, a descendant of the Tang clan who had been defeated by her and later fought with her from the Demon City back to Province S.

"Baitang!"

Baitang turned around and said with a smile: "I saw Tang Minglang just now, and wondered why you guys didn't come. In the end, you came out by yourself."

The people who called her were Yuan Mingyi and Tian Yanran. They and Tang Minglang were both representatives of the S province base.

"Why are you also in the capital?" Yuan Mingyi and the two were very happy to see Baitang. Ever since Baitang sent her child to the Dongshan School, they haven't been there for a long time, and they haven't seen her in the D city base.They thought Baitang had an accident.

"I spend most of my time at the capital base!" Baitang turned to Tian Yanran, "Have you seen your cousin?"

Tian Yanran said: "I see, but my cousin is responsible for the security work during the exchange meeting, and has no time to entertain us. He said that he will give us a farewell party when we leave."

It is not suitable to expose the existence of cultivation, so Tian Yuan and other people who have cultivated truth are assigned to be responsible for the order and safety of the exchange meeting, and they are not allowed to participate in the exchange meeting competition. Yi Qian and Yang Kang also assigned tasks.

"Your brother's status in the base is not low, and he is also responsible for many things."

"I understand!" Tian Yanran said, "When are you going back to City D? Come to Dongshan School when the time comes? Those children miss you very much!"

Bai Tang smiled: "Maybe they miss the candied haws I brought them!"

Tian Yanran and Yuan Mingyi also laughed: "It's not because you have the ability to find candied haws in the last days!"

Baitang: "Do you want to eat candied haws? I'll take you to eat them! There is a snack bar in the capital base that makes pretty good candied haws, although the raw material is not hawthorn, but the fruit of some kind of mutated plant. Besides candied haws, they also have They sell pretzels, Taishi cakes, white sachima, jujube flower crisps and pea yellow, the authentic eight major items in the capital. You can take some back when you leave, and it’s also a face-saving gift as a special product.”

Yuan Mingyi sighed: "When the end of the world just came, how could I expect to eat such authentic Beijing cakes!"

Tian Yanran nodded deeply in agreement: "The days are getting better and better, thanks to the weapons and antidotes developed by the research institute, we have more guarantees to survive in the last days, and we don't have to face death at any time like before."

Yuan Mingyi's eyes lit up: "There is also a mecha! Such a tall thing suddenly appeared, making my eyes red. I really want to open it once! Unfortunately, we are not ZF people, so we are not qualified!"

In order not to expose "Baitang's deal with aliens", ZF pushed every new product on the research institute.In the eyes of the people, the Institute is now a high-end and life-saving existence!

Yuan Mingyi and Tian Yanran had finished their match today, when they heard Baitang's treat, they unceremoniously followed Baitang out of the crowd.There was only a burst of cheers, the winner in the arena was already divided, Tang Minglang defeated his opponent, he jumped off the ring with one plucking green onions from the dry land, and jumped down with two jumps, standing beside the three of them.

"Where are you going? Don't call me!"

On the way back from Shanghai to S Province, Tang Minglang supported each other several times in life and death. The revolutionary friendship between Tang Minglang and the three of them was incomparably deep. The little bit of jealousy in the early years has long since dissipated, and now the relationship is very strong.

"I didn't call you, didn't you also follow?" Yuan Mingyi rolled his eyes, "Hurry up and drive, don't get in the way, Baitang is going to take us to eat authentic Beijing snacks!"

The shop Bai Tang found was called "Ji Xiang Zhai". The shop owners were all from the old capital for more than three generations, and they relied on this handicraft to make a living.Before the end of the world, the rich and varied delicacies in the modern society overwhelmed the traditional delicacies, and the family kept a small shop less than five square meters to barely maintain the family's life.After the end of the world, everyone has experienced the suffering of food shortage, and even a steamed bun is delicious, let alone these traditional delicacies that are already delicious.The food in Jixiangzhai is delicious and cheap. The shop owner can support his family without going out of the base to hunt zombies by relying on the handicrafts handed down from his family.

Jixiangzhai sells the thirteen specialties of the old capital: bean noodle cake, aiwowo, candied fruit, ginger shredded fork, candied ear, noodle tea, Sanzi Mahua, Sachima, coke ring, sugar fire, pea yellow, bean curd Stuffed biscuits, butter fried cakes, but due to material limitations, several of them could not be made, and now only sell Aiwowo, Tanger, Niancha, Sanzi Twist, Sachima, Sugar Fire, Pea Yellow and Bean Stuffed Biscuits A few.Baitang ordered two dishes for each dish, and specially ordered strings of candied haws for each of the three people, wanting to see how embarrassing it would be for three adults to eat candied haws.But in this last days, food is very expensive, it doesn’t matter if there is something delicious, children or adults eat it, they all pick up the candied haws openly, take a big bite, and after a few bites, only one is left Bamboo sticks.

Among these snacks, Baitang's favorites are Aiwowo, noodle tea and sugar fire.Aiwowo is washed and soaked with glutinous rice, then steamed in a cage, kneaded evenly after cooling, squeezed into small doses, pressed into a round skin, wrapped with peach kernels, sesame seeds, melon seeds, green plums, golden cakes, and white sugar. nest food.In the book "Township Proverb Jie Yu" written by Li Guangting of the Qing Dynasty, it was mentioned that an emperor liked to eat this kind of nest. When he wanted to eat or wanted to eat it, he ordered: "Royal AI nest." People can't and dare not say the word "Yu", so the word "Yu" is omitted and it is called "Aiwowo".Aiwowo has a long history. During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, Liu Ruoyu, the internal supervisor, said in "Zhuo Zhongzhi": "Using glutinous rice with sesame seeds as a cold cake, and filling it with balls is called Aiwowo, which is the ancient 'buluojia'."

Tang Huo Shao is a sesame seed cake with added sugar, while noodle tea is made of millet noodles, sesame paste, sesame oil, peppercorns, and salt.Noodle tea is usually sold in the afternoon among Beijing snacks.There is a poem that says: "Dried ginger and sesame paste must always be added to hot noodle tea when you wake up from a dream in the afternoon."Noodle tea is very similar to the special snack oil tea in S Province. Pour an appropriate amount of millet noodles into the pot, mix it with cold water to make a batter, boil it on the fire and keep stirring. The noodle tea is already very viscous and easy to pour. When you come out, you can turn off the fire.Then pour a layer of sesame paste on the noodle tea in a small bowl, and then sprinkle some pepper and salt on the sesame paste, so that a bowl of old Beijing-style snacks - noodle tea is ready.

Tang Minglang drank the noodle tea but missed the camellia even more: "It's a pity that the S province base doesn't sell camellia!"

"Don't you live in your Tangjiabao? When did you go to the S province base?" Baitang asked while pinching an aiwowo.

"Now that all the sects have been born, how can we, the Tang family, be surprised? If they hadn't been born, not only would the resources of well-qualified apprentices be robbed by other sects, but their status and reputation would also be left behind by the sect that came out first. ." Tang Minglang pointed at Yuan Mingyi, "Their Dongshan sect came out earlier than our Tangjiapu!"

Yuan Mingyi smiled and said, "It's not that we want to be the first, but Master Chu's request."

It is well known that Chu Wenchong works for the ZF, and he will definitely consider both aspects at the same time.

"With Uncle Chu's relationship, our Dongshan faction quickly established a foothold in the base." Although there are few people in the Dongshan faction, all of them are elites, not to mention high-powered and all of them are supernatural beings. Do your best to win them over.Especially after seeing that they have adopted so many children, the leaders of the base have a better impression of the Dongshan faction.What is a child?In the last days, it is a burden, but it is also hope.The Dongshan faction is not afraid of cumbersomeness and keeps hope for human beings. This quality is worthy of people's respect.

"Baitang, don't you have a follower? Why didn't you see it?" Yuan Mingyi knew about Karen's existence from Tian Yuan, and was very curious about such a person.

Baitang pouted: "I'm in a relationship."

Tian Yanran was puzzled: "Isn't he your boyfriend?"

Bai Tang glared: "Don't listen to your cousin's nonsense, Karen and I are just companions. Now that a woman is chasing him, I don't want to ruin his marriage."

Yuan Mingyi: "Although you speak righteously, why do I feel that your tone is a bit sour!"

"You have a problem with your ears!" Baitang said with a blank expression, "He and I are people from two worlds, and it is absolutely impossible for us to be a couple."

Perhaps she had fantasized about being with Karen, like Oscar and Andre in The Rose of Versailles.Unfortunately, Karen's reaction told her that she was dreaming.The plots in novels can only appear in novels, and she is not the money that everyone loves. If she saves the handsome guy, the handsome guy will fall in love with her.For so long, she has tried carefully, but the results are always unsatisfactory. "If you don't want to, I will rest." She Baitang has her own pride, she doesn't have to have this man (although she has only seen such a man for so many years), she has cheats and cultivation, and her life span has already broken through Beyond the limitations of mortals, he can travel through several worlds. If he sincerely seeks, he will surely find a better man than him!Hmph, why hang on a tree with such good conditions?
"Are you really a couple?" Yuan Mingyi still had doubts.

Baitang became impatient: "It's up to me to say as much as you want, no, no!"

Yuan Mingyi smiled sheepishly, and changed the subject: "No, it's not. By the way, I heard that you also mentioned an apprentice, and you even have a grandson. I heard that he is very powerful. When will you introduce him to us?"

"They're on a mission now, come to my house for dinner tonight, and I'll introduce them to you!" The topic changed, and Bai Tang's mood improved a bit.
