Chapter 2 Killing the Fish
There is a small cistern not far from the kitchen of the North and South Hotel, in which the fresh fish needed by the hotel are prepared, and the elderly apprentice next to the cistern is standing side by side with Shao'an, and the water in the pool is not too turbid, and you can still see the fish swimming leisurely in it more clearly.
The older apprentice turned his head to look at Shao'an, and found that Shao'an's eyes were blank at this time, looking at the live fish in the pond with an expressionless face, he was still very satisfied with Shao'an's state, at least it was his turn to perform as a senior apprentice.
"Shao'an, why don't I show you it?"
Shao An woke up from his wandering state.
"Huh? What a shame! ”
Looking at Shao'an's absent-minded look, the older apprentice couldn't help but shake his head, but the demonstration still had to be demonstrated, he picked up the fishing net placed on the edge of the pool, and then observed the movement of the live fish, and after determining the plan, he quickly lowered the net, fished, and collected the net, and the whole process was completed in one go.
"See, this is the right way to fish, I think I made so fast when I practiced this, even my senior brother was stunned, Shao'an, you still have to learn."
Shao An looked at the fish struggling in the nets and at the older apprentice who kept laughing, and he finally asked the crucial question.
"Senior brother, does this have anything to do with killing fish?"
"Uh, no," the elder apprentice's big smile came to an abrupt end.
"But it's still very powerful." Shaoan said
"Of course!" The older apprentice dragged it up again.
"In the future, if you can't get along, at least you can help someone salvage some things that fell into the water, maybe the woodcutter or something dropped an iron axe into the water, you can catch a gold axe, if you develop well, you can become a professional plumber, maybe there will be some king asking you to go to the sewers to save the princess or something" Shao'an's thinking unfolded.
"Do you want to kill the fish or not!" The older apprentices couldn't stand Shao'an's chatter.
"Kill! Definitely going to kill! But you'll have to come first. Shao'an finally got back to business.
"Keep your eyes open and look at it, in fact, killing fish is very simple." The older apprentices are starting to get proud again.
Shao An struggled to open his eyes, and a pair of wide eyes just looked straight at the older apprentice, which ruined the interest of the older apprentice.
"Shao'an! I said you did it on purpose! "The older apprentices can't stand it anymore.
"Where? I've tried hard to keep my eyes open. Shao An replied seriously.
"Forget it, don't keep your eyes open, just look like you normally."
"Say it earlier! My eyes hurt. Shaoan complained.
This time, the older apprentice finally ignored Shao'an, and he began the lesson of killing fish.
The older apprentice looked solemn, he reached out and clasped the live fish trapped in the net, then took out the net, grasped the body of the fish with both hands, adjusted the position of the head, and aimed the head at the stone by the pool. The head of the fish was smashed the stone a few times, and the live fish that was still struggling did not move.
Shao An looked at the older apprentice with admiration, and he stretched out his thumb to give the senior apprentice a high evaluation of his performance just now.
"It's so straightforward! Brother, is it dead? Shao An asked as he poked his finger at the body of the immovable live fish.
"I'm not dead, I just passed out." The older apprentice looked determined.
"So what's next?" Shaoan asked.
"Keep killing!" The older apprentice's face was full of murder.
"Senior brother, wait for me." Shaoan seemed to remember something.
"What are you doing?" The older apprentice looked dazed.
After Shao'an finished speaking, he quickly ran to the kitchen, and soon he ran back with an object.
========================================================================================================================================
Shao An returned to the older apprentice, one hand behind his back, and smiled happily at the older apprentice.
"Senior brother, what do you guess I brought?"
Just as the older apprentice was about to answer.
"You can't guess! I brought a kitchen knife! Shaoan replied with a smile.
The other hand hidden behind his back was revealed, and it was a kitchen knife that shone with a cold light in his hand, and he didn't seem to mean to hand the kitchen knife to the older apprentice immediately, and the kitchen knife was held in his hand, and he danced a knife flower in front of the old chef triumphantly.
Who knew that the older apprentice expressed deep disdain for the kitchen knife in Shao'an's hand.
"Shao'an, you're so young! Who told you that you have to use a knife to kill a fish. The older apprentice at this time looked unfathomable.
Seeing his senior brother's confident look, Shao An couldn't help but think of a possibility, could it be that the senior brother was going to make a big move? At this moment, Shao'an observed the older apprentice's every move with great concentration.
The older apprentice smiled, and he began to move, the index and middle fingers of his right hand kept moving, and finally he showed his amazing ultimate, and this ultimate, which almost made Shao'an's eyes almost pop out.
"Is that okay? Wouldn't it be too brutal? Shaoan said.
The older apprentice pretended to put his right hand in the cistern and washed it until the blood on his fingers was washed away, and he explained the series of actions to Shao'an.
"See, this is the art of killing fish, isn't it full of charm?" The older apprentice shook his head, and the sea on his forehead shook with it.
"Art? Charm? Big brother, you are exalting yourself too much. Shao An thought to himself.
Shao An summed up the techniques of the older apprentice, first smashing the fish hard, then using his index and middle fingers to directly stab the gills of the fish and cut out the gills, and finally scraping off the scales with his fingernails, the whole process was bloody and brutal, and there was no beauty at all.
"Brother Yu, you have suffered!" Shao'an observed a moment of silence.
"Shao'an's turn is you, don't learn from my method, although my method is very artistic, but with your current technique, there is still no way to achieve this, so you still use the knife to kill slowly, remember that the first step must be to smash the fish unconscious." Said the older apprentice.
"Is it my turn? Do you really want to kill? Shaoan hesitated.
"Kill! Gotta kill! But it's your turn to kill. The older apprentice replied in the words of Shao'an.
"Looks like there's no choice! Then let's kill! Shaoan gritted his teeth.
Under the shocked eyes of the older apprentice, Shao An skillfully fished out a small live fish from the pool, and then he randomly picked up a thick branch from the ground and aimed one end of the branch at the mouth of the live fish.
"Brother Yu, we have no grievances in the past and no enemies in the near future, after you go down, you must remember that the person who harmed you is my senior brother!"
With that, he closed his eyes, and the branch in his hand thrust hard, and the branch pierced through the mouth of the live fish and penetrated through the body, and the live fish shook violently and then stopped moving.
The older apprentice looked at Shao An with his mouth wide open in disbelief, he swore that he had never seen such a vicious method used by Shao An, it was so cruel that even the most important step of stuning was omitted.
Shao An reopened his eyes and looked at the live fish that had not moved.
"Senior brother, has it fainted?" Shaoan asked.
"Ahem, it looks like he's dead," the older apprentice replied.
"Is it artistic enough?" Shaoan asked again.
"It's just art! Senior brother has a future! The older apprentice gave a rare compliment.
"Senior brother, why don't you try it?" Shaoan said.
"It's not good if you don't try, it's not good to kill too much!" The older apprentice found a reason.
"I see! But I'm still not familiar with it, why don't you use the artistic technique I just used to demonstrate it tomorrow? ”
