The natural skill of the Zulus and Burmans is the ability to make fires at any time.

While resting in the woods, they had already picked up some dry branches, which were not easy to pick up in such a rainy environment, so they ignited the hay and threw it into the dry branches, and soon a flame burned.

Yang Shubao handed the snacks such as cookies, cream cakes, milk pudding and cheese pies to Wengjiwa, who pinched a biscuit and put it in his mouth and smiled: "It's delicious." ”

The tray conducted, big guy, you and I quickly ate a large plate of dim sum with one hand.

While eating dim sum, Weng Jiwa did not forget to ask about the zebra: "Mr. Yang, how did you tame the zebra?"

Yang Shubao smiled bitterly: "It's really not me who tames, those two zebras may have a good temper, anyway, we have lived together for a long time, and they don't resist being ridden." ”

Onjiwa sighed, "How so? Our tribe also had zebras, but they weren't allowed to ride, so we ate them." ”

Yang Shubao thought for a while and said: "Then have you tried the method of selective breeding? It is very difficult to domesticate wild animals, it is impossible to become a generation, and it is generally necessary to breed them from generation to generation." ”

"What do you mean by directional breeding?" the indigenous people asked curiously.

Yang Shubao gestured and introduced: "Well, that is, you first find a group of zebras, bring them back and choose the most well-behaved and obedient ones to breed, and then choose the most well-behaved and obedient ones to be the mothers after they give birth to small zebras, and so on from generation to generation, what you get is a zebra that is willing to obey." ”

Onjiwa was surprised, "But it takes a lot of time." ”

Yang Shubao said: "Breeding animals is like this, this is a very time-consuming and energetic work, I did this, and the two zebras were selected by me as the mother." ”

A black youth asked, "Can you give them to our tribe?"

This request is very abrupt, but it is also normal, the aborigines have simple brain circuits, and they ask for what they like.

They want others to be generous to themselves, and they themselves are to be generous to others, as in Zulu families, when guests come to the door, the man usually has to entertain the guests with his wife.

Yang Shubao politely refused: "No." ”

The natives will make random demands, they will not be forced to be embarrassed, and it is normal for them to be refused, and they will not feel embarrassed.

After being rejected by Lao Yang, they smiled and began to grill fish, and now no one asked him about domesticating zebras.

Freshwater fish are basically covered with scales, and the main fish they catch are tilapia, carp and grass carp, which are only disemboweled, and do not process the scales, which are left on them for roasting, not to eat, but to isolate the flame and prevent scorching.

Each indigenous person is a good at grilling fish, and they use sticks to penetrate through the mouth of the fish, and then grill the fish one by one.

Africa does not lack ingredients but seasonings, so the indigenous people grill fish without seasonings, only salt.

Onjiva carried a bag of animal skins, and in it was a bag of salt.

In addition, the northern crown eagle tribe is also more particular, they learned to use lemons to remove the fish during their wandering, and there are wild lemons in this bag, and after taking it out, he used a knife to halve it, and then pinched out the lemon juice with his hands and squeezed it on the fish.

Wild lemon is the most sour, and the fishy smell is completely covered after being roasted on the fire, leaving only the sour taste.

The scales of the fish quickly turned black, they continued to roast, Wengjiwa was the first to bake the fish, he divided the two fish to Yang Shubao and Nicole, and then clenched his right hand into a fist and beat his chest, and then opened his hand and patted his mouth, with a simple smile on his face: "Distinguished guests, please eat." ”

"Thank you, honorable master, and may you and your tribe prosper in population and warriors. Nicole slapped her mouth with her hand and clenched her fist to thump her chest, the opposite step was done.

Yang Shubao knew that this was the custom of the local tribe, so he did the same thing.

The scales of the grilled fish are already crispy, and they will fall off with a gentle scrape with a blade.

The scales are removed, and the snow-white flesh is revealed, and the boiling heat is steaming up, accompanied by the beating bonfire next to it, which makes people quickly come to the appetite.

Yang Shubao blew the heat of the fish, he tried to take a bite, a faint fishy smell, a faint citric acid, the two flavors are above the fresh aroma of the fish and the saltiness of the salt, this grilled fish is not very delicious, but it is very appropriate.

The river behind him was flowing loudly, the sea breeze around him was blowing slowly, and the stars and moon appeared in the night sky together.

The moon stars are scarce, and today is the day of the full moon, so even at night, the sky is not very dark and dark, and the bright moonlight is sprinkled on the water, which is indifferent and cold.

Yang Shubao looked at the reflection of the floating moon at the mouth of the lake, and he suddenly had a feeling: the moon is full and the river is barred.

The natives were easily satisfied, and after eating the fragrant snacks and the delicious grilled fish, they immediately became happy, and when the scales were removed, they stood up with the grilled fish and began to dance around the campfire, and their mouths uttered a subdued song in the tribal language, and their dark faces were pure smiles.

A friendly young man beckoned to the two of them, Nicole was a South African, and she was also good at singing and dancing, she ate the grilled fish, clapped her hands, stood up and stretched her arms lightly, and danced rhythmically.

Suddenly, the blacks were even happier, and they were so happy that they were hugging Nicole like a queen, and they circled around the campfire.

As they were dancing, Onjiwa looked back at the lake and suddenly shouted, he pointed to the lake, and the others ran to the shore with cheers and waved their arms.

In the bright moonlight, the Great Santa Lucia Lake glowed with light.

At first the fluorescence was faint and sparse, but as time passed, the fluorescence began to thicken, and a pale green light shimmered on the surface of the water, like someone who had broken the jade and scattered it on the lake.

"Ghost shrimp, this is ghost shrimp!" "Nicole muttered, "they're beautiful." ”

On the way, she explained to Yang Shubao that fishing for ghost crabs requires a full moon night, because of the tide, ghost shrimp will come from the bottom of the lake to the surface of the lake on a full moon night every month, and ghost crabs that are fond of preying on ghost shrimp will also float up.

At other times, ghost shrimp and ghost crabs hide at the bottom of the lake, because shrimp usually hide in the mud at the bottom of the lake in search of algae food, and ghost crabs also burrow into the bottom of the lake to hunt, and it is difficult to catch them.

Ongjiwa and the others jumped into the canoes, and then they pulled up the small mesh to catch the shrimp.

The two black men gave their canoes to Yang Shubao and Nicole, poor old Yang was a landlubber, he looked at the dark lake and wondered: "I can't swim, what should I do if I fall?"

Nicole patted him on the shoulder and said, "I can swim, but I may not be able to drag you, so if you feel dangerous, hold the canoe and I can push it back." ”

Onjiwa turned around and said, "We can all swim, swimming is too easy, if you fall into the water, then you will learn to swim, so don't be afraid, be brave and go into the water." ”
