Chapter 262: Watch Auntie Dig Sand Worms
Hearing the villagers say this, Xia Xia's goosebumps came out, and the sandworms that looked so terrible could actually be eaten. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
But thinking about it, I think it's normal, if it's delicious, Xia Xia will eat it too, no matter if it looks beautiful or not.
Suddenly, Xia Xia saw her aunt pull out a small sandworm from the sand, and put it in the bucket very easily.
Seeing that the sandworms in the bucket gradually increased, the aunt showed a satisfied expression on her face, these sandworms can be sold in the evening, and then you can get money.
Xia Xia asked suspiciously, "Auntie, how did you know that there were sandworms in the sand?"
Xia Xia saw her aunt digging here, very skillful, and she could dig out a sandworm in a while, although Xia Xia didn't dare to catch these sandworms, but she felt very interesting when she saw her aunt digging here.
Auntie glanced at Xia Xia and saw Xia Xia's puzzled eyes, plus she has been busy here for so long, it is not bad to have someone to chat with.
The aunt pointed to the sand and said, "The sandworm will burrow into the sandworm road, you see this is the sandworm road." ”
Hearing her aunt say this, Xia Xia bent down and looked carefully at the sand underground. Sure enough, I found a small passage in the sand, but if I didn't look closely, I really couldn't see it.
"I saw it, and then?" Xia Xia touched the sandworm road with her hand, and felt amazing, these sandworm roads were like roads built by humans.
Generally speaking, inexperienced people can't see the sand worm road, because it can sometimes be confused with the burrow of sand crabs.
But for the villagers who grew up here, it is still very easy to find the sandworm road, after all, they rely on this for food.
I saw the aunt pick up the hoe on the side and keep beating it on the sand, making a banging sound, similar to the sound of knocking on the belly after a full meal.
Xia Xia looked at her aunt suspiciously, not knowing what the principle of knocking on the sand like this was. But Xia Xia didn't make a sound, but quietly watched her aunt's operation.
She knew that there must be a reason why her aunt knocked on the sand like this, otherwise she wouldn't be so bored as to knock on the ground.
The aunt also saw Xia Xia's doubts, and patiently explained: "The reason for knocking on the sand is to make the sandworms hear the sound, and the sandworms will be frightened when they hear the sound." ”
"Is it that the sandworm will run out after being frightened?" Xia Xia didn't even dare to blink her eyes, staring straight at the sand, if the sandworm climbed up, she could help her aunt catch it.
may be due to watching the sandworms for a long time, Xia Xia suddenly felt that these sandworms were not scary, and it should be the sandworms that should be afraid.
Auntie shook her head, if the sandworms could escape, then they could catch a lot of sandworms, but unfortunately the sandworms would not escape.
The aunt slapped the sand and explained to Xia Xia. "The sandworm will not run out, it will only panic, in order to escape, the sandworm will desperately drill into the sand, and the sandworm will splash out of the water column in the process of drilling in the sand. ”
Auntie also understands Xia Xia very well, after all, Xia Xia is here for the first time, and she doesn't know much about sandworms, so it's normal to not know.
Thinking back to the first time she dug sandworms, she felt green, at that time she didn't understand anything, and kept asking others for advice, and finally today she can know how to dig sandworms proficiently.
"I see, I thought so. Xia Xia nodded, thinking about it carefully, she knew that there was danger, she must have wanted to hide, how could she throw herself into the net?
Xia Xia stared at the ground, watching her aunt slap the sand, but she didn't see any water splashing out.
Xia Xia was a little anxious, but seeing the confident look on her aunt's face, Xia Xia relaxed a little. Aunties are not in a hurry, why should she be in a hurry?
"Looks like there are no sandworms here, let's go over here. After slapping for a while, the aunt did not hesitate at all, and moved directly to the other side to continue to slap the sand.
In her experience, there were no sandworms left in the sand just now, and she had to move them, otherwise she wouldn't be able to dig them.
She skillfully picked up the little hoe and slapped it on the ground, a sound that was not loud for them, but enough for the sandworms to make them feel scared.
Seeing her aunt walking aside, Xia Xia stood up, walked to her aunt and squatted down, carefully watching her aunt's operation.
Suddenly, Xia Xia admired the aunt in front of her a little, she only squatted here for a while and felt that her legs were a little numb, and she wanted to sit down, but unfortunately the sand here was wet, and if she sat down, her pants would definitely be wet.
Xia Xia didn't bring her clothes out today, so she couldn't get her clothes wet, or she would have to go back to the hotel to change her clothes. The hotel is also quite far from here, and Xia Xia doesn't want to be so troublesome.
But when I saw my aunt's expression, I didn't seem to feel the numbness in my legs at all, maybe I was used to it.
Suddenly, Xia Xia saw a column of water spraying out of the sand, Xia Xia suddenly became excited, pointed to the water column and said excitedly: "Look, there is a column of water." ”
I saw my aunt grab the hoe, dig hard into the sand, and then stretched out her hand to grab the sandworm, the whole process was just a few seconds, Xia Xia was stunned.
Before she could see how her aunt caught the sandworm, the sandworm had already arrived in her aunt's hands, and it was really a familiar hand, if it was the first time she caught it, she might not have caught it.
Xia Xia couldn't help but praise: "Auntie, you are too powerful." There was applause all of a sudden, and seeing that the sandworm was caught by her aunt, Xia Xia was very satisfied.
Auntie put the sandworm in the bucket, and she was a little embarrassed to hear Xia Xia say this, but she still had a smile on her face.
"But Auntie, I still don't understand it, but can you explain?" Xia Xia looked at her aunt very suspiciously, hoping that Auntie could answer her doubts, otherwise she wouldn't have the heart to play for a while.
The aunt said: "Actually, it is to judge the whereabouts of the sandworm according to the situation of the water column, and then dig hard, just to cut off its escape path, so that it can't escape, and then catch the sandworm." ”
Hearing her aunt say this, Xia Xia finally understood that catching sandworms was divided into several steps, and if there was one less step, it would be difficult to catch sandworms.
Xia Xia glanced at the sandworms on the plate, she just saw that her aunt dug it so easily, and thought it was very simple, but in practice, it would feel very complicated.
Xia Xia asked suspiciously, "How much can the sandworms in Auntie's bucket be sold?"
"About two hundred. Auntie looked at the sandworms in the bucket, there should be more than two catties, the sandworms in this season are very fat, and they may be sold at a good price.
"That's okay. Xia Xia was surprised, she didn't expect the sandworms to be sold so expensive, and suddenly she felt that it was worth it for her aunt to squat here and dig sandworms.
