In an unknown valley, there is an unknown path. On this unknown path is a donkey, and next to the donkey is a young Taoist priest.

Although the names of the mountains and trails are unknown, the donkey and the Taoist have names. The donkey is called "Hey Ya", and the young Taoist is naturally Qing Ya.

Taoist Qingya has been traveling around for more than half a year since the heavy snow fell from the mountain that day.

In these six months, although his appearance and posture have not changed much, his personality and habits have changed a lot. From the previous one who only knew how to accompany the morning dew and breeze, the bright moon, and only knew how to read and practice.

The dull Taoist became much more lively and interesting.

One of the things that best proves this is his diet.

He is now obsessed with eating hot pot. The first thing he does whenever he goes somewhere is to eat hot pot. Moreover, he doesn’t like the clear soup pot bottom, but loves the red soup pot bottom. The ingredients used for boiling are also

I prefer fat intestines, yellow throat, hairy tripe, lung slices, etc., which are pure meat foods.

He liked to watch the ingredients tumbling up and down in the red and spicy soup that was as bright as blood... because Mu Qiuhuang once told him that it looked like rolling red dust.

Although this sentence was made by Mu Qiuhuang casually, Taoist Qingya felt a different flavor in it.

This is sometimes the case. The speaker may not mean it, but the listener often does. It can also be said to have the feeling of "a word that wakes up the dreamer".

…

On the day when Taoist Qingya was about to come down the mountain, he had a sparring match with his master Zhang Fuling. At that time, Taoist Qingya was using the boxing technique he had developed himself. Because his boxing technique was not perfect, Zhang Fuling asked him to come down the mountain.

.

After coming down the mountain, the first meal he had was hot pot. While eating hot pot, Mu Qiuhuang once said to him: "There is no problem in the world that cannot be solved by one hot pot. If there is, then eat another one."

"Dun..." At that time, he didn't take these words seriously. It was not until later that he bid farewell to Mu Qiuhuang and traveled alone in the world, and after eating a few hot pots, he suddenly discovered a characteristic of hot pots. The biggest one in hot pots.

The characteristic is that it does not have a fixed recipe menu. The type of pot base can be very diverse, it can be red soup, white soup, or even just an ordinary pot of water... The ingredients boiled in it can also be of various shapes.

It's hairy tripe, yellow throat, fat sheep rolls... It can also be cabbage, tofu, radish strips... Its composition is very simple. As long as there is a pot bottom and ingredients, it can be called a hot pot. Cabbage can be paired with fat

Sheep rolls and tofu can also be paired with yellow throat and hairy tripe... But no matter how you pair it, it is called hot pot. Just one pot can accommodate everything. It will never be as "unique" as other dishes. For example

, chicken can only be called chicken, and duck can only be called duck. Whether it is boiled chicken or salted chicken, whether it is roasted chicken or fried chicken...the only thing that cannot change is that it is always "chicken". The same goes for duck.

, cured duck, roast duck, roast duck... no matter how it changes, it is still "duck". However, when you try to use chicken and duck as ingredients for hot pot, it will not be called "chicken" or "chicken".

"Duck" was changed to "duck", and it started to be called "hot pot".

…

If you are an ordinary person, eating is just eating. At most, you can only taste the taste of the meal. If you are more powerful, you may infer the process, heat, etc. used by the cook to make the dish through the taste of the dish.

However, Qingya Taoist thought of the boxing technique he created through a meal. From food to martial arts, the span is so large that ordinary people cannot imagine it, or

It is said that normal people would not associate the two at all, because they are completely unrelated. Just as Taoist Qingya is not an ordinary person. Then, he associates the two, and he also

From "hot pot", I learned something similar to martial arts that can be applied to his boxing skills... This is incredible, but it really exists.

Taoist Qingya thought that his boxing technique abandoned the speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness of traditional martial arts, and gave up the opportunity to take advantage... It was a complete reversal from the mainstream of the past.
