Chapter 497: Shrimp and Field Chicken
Chapter 497 Shrimp and Field Chicken
I found an open area and walked down a small stream of water.
The water grew wider and larger, until it became a clear stream calf deep.
Li Junge pointed down the slope towards the stream, the plants in the valley were like a huge green reptile, and there was a small gap in the belly, and the water could be faintly seen.
Li Junge took the wooden spear and pointed it to everyone: "Look, that is the location of that small lake, if we choose to start from there, take this green plant down the slope, and then follow this stream to where we are now, it may take five or six days." ”
Ayin was surprised: "It's so difficult to walk?"
Li Junge said: "Difficult to walk is secondary, and the loss of sense of direction is the most terrible thing." Someone once walked out in the Amazon jungle for hours and then never found the camp again, and it was found that he had died only 100 meters from the camp, separated by a dense forest. ”
Ayin said, "It's so scary?"
Li Junge said: "Yes, so I don't go where I'm not sure, and it's almost the same when I go down here, put things here, and look for something to eat." ”
Ah Yin glanced at the water and said, "Erpi, there are a lot of shrimp in the water!"
The stream is about five meters wide and the water is clear, and if you look closely at the bottom of the water, there are indeed many shrimp with transparent black stripes swimming.
It's not small, it's as long as a ring finger.
Li Junge laughed: "Ayin, get you something funny." ”
Ayin smiled: "Fishing for shrimp?"
Li Junge said: "It's not fishing, it's a set!"
Li Junge went to the palm tree by the water's edge and peeled off a piece of brown shell, pulled out a few of the longest brown silk from it, put a small circle on the tip of the brown silk, and then threaded the other end into this small circle, which became a trap.
Cutting down a thin bamboo, Li Junge connected the brown silk sleeve with the bamboo slightly, came to the water's edge, squatted down with Ayin, and said to Ayin: "It's very simple, look at it." ”
Stretch the brown silk circle into the water, go down the current, put it under the shrimp head of a shrimp, lift the bamboo slightly to the shore and throw it, and the shrimp will be put on the brown silk circle.
Ah Yin clapped his hands happily: "Oh, it's so easy to catch, why is this shrimp so stupid?
Li Junge took out all the things in the back basket, put two banana leaves under the back basket, put the shrimp in, and said to Ayin: "If your bamboo is a little far enough away from the shrimp, it will not hide, there are often things as thick and thin as brown silk in the water, and it is never a threat to them, so they will not dodge, at most they will only float up a little bit and let the brown silk slide through the bottom, and then, there will be no more......
Ayin said: "This is amazing, it turns out that catching shrimp is so simple?"
Li Junge said with a smile: "I'm familiar with their habits, isn't it that simple? Not to mention such a big one, Xiaobai Xiaosong and they take this to catch stone loach and small shrimp by the water in summer, and they don't know how much trouble they will have every year when they are two or three centimeters long!"
Ah Yin squatted on the side of the stream and set shrimp, and said with a smile: "You were afraid that you had a lot of disasters when you were a child, right? Well, I guess Xiao Song Xiaobai will do this, and you taught them all this trick!
Now that he was arrested, Li Junge said abruptly: "Isn't this Yiduo not pressing? If you don't have this trick, you can have shrimp to eat at noon today? Hahaha, you can catch shrimp here and play, I'll walk along the stream to see!"
Descending a little further down the stream, the stream widens and joins a muddy field, turning it into a shallow swamp.
Li Junge likes this kind of place the most, and when he looks at it, sure enough, there are a lot of frogs among the aquatic plants and duckweed.
"Tian Chicken!" With such a good dish, Li Junge will certainly not let it go.
Take off your T-shirt, cut off a piece of bamboo, tie up the cuffs and neck with bamboo silk, bend two pieces of bamboo into a circle, and tie the hem of the T-shirt to the top to tie it up, which becomes a cloth pocket.
He cut a bamboo pole and took out a bamboo board with two grooves at both ends from his trouser pocket, on which was wrapped a bundle of fine hemp rope.
"Hey, hey, I knew I could use it!"
Cut off a small piece of twine, knead it into a small ball after disbanding, cut off a twine about one meter long and tie it tightly, cut a thin bamboo branch, tie the twine to the bamboo, and stretch the hemp ball in front of the frogs and shake it up and down.
Immediately, a frog pounced on its legs and stuck its tongue into its mouth.
As soon as Li Junge shook the bamboo pole, the frog flew up, and fell halfway, and Li Junge stretched out a cloth to catch it.
It didn't take long for twenty or thirty more frogs to be in the pocket.
Seeing that it was almost over, Li Junge was about to go home, but saw two bubbles emerging from the water under a clump of grass.
"Damn! seduce Lao Tzu, do you want me to rush back to cook!"
This is a mullet bubble.
The best bait for mullet fishing is a small frog.
Li Junge regretted a little that he had just said that all the little frogs had been released, and now he had to tease the little frogs again.
Three more big ones were teased, and then two small ones came up.
It's still the same line just now, but I changed to a thick bamboo pole, tied a thread at one end and a hook at the other, hung the little frog on the thick leg of the leg, and gently stretched the bamboo pole to the bubbling place just now and put the little frog there to move.
After a few clicks, I saw a splash break up the duckweed on the water, the little frog disappeared, and the hemp rope straightened.
Such shallow water can't hide seven or eight catties of big mullet, Li Junge is worried that the mullet has strong teeth and dreams a lot at night, so he directly picked up the bamboo pole and picked out the hooked mullet out of the water and threw it on the shore.
There is no difficulty at all in doing so.
Mullets can live for a long time out of the water, Li Junge was not worried, and directly used a hemp rope through the gills of the fish and tied it to the foot of a bush beside him.
The fish just threw it into the grass.
It's not over yet, mullets are generally in pairs, and if there is one, there must be another.
After checking the fishing line for any worn spots, I found another little frog to hang on.
Continue around the nest you just had**.
The fish was very fast just now, and it didn't disturb the nest, and sure enough, more than ten minutes later, another mullet was also hit.
Two mullets, each with more than two catties, are not finished at noon today.
Wrapping the hook and thread back around the bamboo board, Li Junge returned to the camp with the mullet and the frog.
Ayin was addicted to catching shrimp there, and she could be heard giggling from afar.
Li Junge looked over: "It's okay, it's okay, how can you eat so much at noon today!"
Ah Yin looked at the back basket and stuck out his tongue: "Oh, it's so much......"
After speaking, you have to stand up, but when your feet are weak, you will fall.
Li Junge hurriedly threw the mullet in his hand back, held the cloth pocket steadily with his left hand, and reached out with his right hand to hold Ayin in his arms: "What's wrong?"
Ayin smiled embarrassedly: "Unconsciously, I've been squatting for too long, and my feet are numb......"
Li Junge hurriedly helped Ah Yin to sit down on a clean stone on the shore, Ah Yin ate and smiled: "I know why your fishing friends are so addicted, it turns out that I am not much better......
Li Junge said with a smile: "Don't say this in the forum. ”
Ayin asked, "Why?"
Li Junge said: "There is a bad habit in the fishing circle, sea fishing is not as good as freshwater, Luya is not as good as Taiwan fishing, Taiwan fishing is not as traditional as the traditional one, and the shrimp is set of shrimp, if you want to say that you are fishing, they will not admit it......"
Ah Le's no: "A group of guys who don't do their jobs are embarrassed to divide factions to disss each other!"
Li Junge said solemnly: "Just kidding! We have always been serious about fishing, haven't you heard the saying that the vegetable head often hangs on his lips......?" Where's the fish I caught?"
went to the grass behind to pick up the two mullets that had been broken into a mess, Ayin smiled and praised: "Speaking of the ability to fish and touch shrimp, there is really no one in Li Jiagou except you, what is in your T-shirt?"
Li Junge stretched out the cloth pocket: "Look, Tian Ji!"
Ayin is the daughter of the Miao family who is a good dish for bamboo insects, centipedes, crawling sandworms, and has no pressure at all about this, so she only said: "Look how dirty your T-shirt is, go, hurry up and deal with it, I washed your clothes for you, fortunately I brought soap, otherwise I wouldn't be able to see it when I went back." ”
The two of them began to wash and peel the frogs by the stream, and they saw that the beards were twitching.
Fortunately, there are two mullets, and the big and small beards are very relieved, and it is a good dish at noon.
As a result, Li Junge picked up all the shrimp in the back basket into the clay pot, covered the pot, dug up a pile of moss from under the feet of the bushes, first spread a layer at the bottom of the back basket, poured some stream water, put two mullets in it, and then covered it with moss, poured some water again, and finally covered it with plantain leaves.
When he returned to the stream, he said to Ayin, "It's no problem for the two mullets to live like this for a week, and we'll keep them for the evening." ”
Looking at the two beards with a resentful face, Li Junge smiled evilly at Ayin: "You see they still dare to stare at me, I heard that whoever eats the valve of the field chicken can't pee, and I haven't tried it yet......"
Ayin patted Li Junge: "You dare!
Halfway through the cleanup, Li Junge asked Ayin to continue to take care of it and pick up firewood by himself.
The forest was very wet, and the dry firewood was not so easy to collect, so Li Junge turned around for a while before he could find enough dry firewood for a meal.
Back at the edge of the forest, Ayin had already cleaned up all the chickens in the field, strung them together with straw stalks, and was cleaning up the shrimp.
Li Junge threw down the firewood and came over to help Ayin tidy it up.
After the shrimp was cleaned up, Li Junge poured the shrimp into a plantain leaf funnel and freed up the pot.
The next step is to make a fire.
Bring a few rocks and form a fire pit the size of the bottom of a pot, and spread a little hay on the inside.
Take out a piece of ignition charcoal and put it on the hay, take the flint and use the serration on the back of the short knife to hit the ignition charcoal a few times, and a few red sparks fall on the ignition charcoal.
The spark fell on the ignition carbon and did not extinguish, Li Junge picked up the ignition carbon and blew a few breaths, the spark turned into a red spot, slowly expanded, and finally covered the entire ignition carbon.
Put the ignition charcoal back on the hay, blow a few breaths, and the hay will burn.
Li Junge is a granular warehouse of the door picking, even a small piece of ignition carbon is reluctant to waste, after lighting the fire, the ignition carbon is also clamped out, poured out with water, put the fire pond and roasted.
This way you can use it again next time.
