Chapter 118: Catching the Yellow Eel

Yao Huang rubbed the corners of her forehead, she was glad that she was a human in this life. The heavens are too harsh on demon cultivators, and the encounters of the two lives make Yao Huang cherish his current identity even more. Stretching, Yao Huang got up and opened the bedroom door.

"Erya, you're finally out. Hungry? Shall I make you something to eat? Seeing Yao Huang walk out of the house, Yao Hong was overjoyed, put down the work in his hand, and went to the kitchen to cook food, no matter what time it was.

"Brother-in-law!" Yao Huang greeted Wenren Chiba who was sitting under the persimmon tree and sat down opposite him. Although there is no need to worry about the war and the threat of displaced people in the village, everyone's hearts are not completely relaxed, and after work, the rest of the time is patrolling near the formation, so as not to break into the village - the villagers do not distrust Yao Huang, but they are too cautious. The school was also affected, and Wenren Chiba changed to a half-day class every day, and his time became abundant. Practicing calligraphy, painting, reading, Wen Ren's life is more leisurely and leisurely, he also made a flute out of bamboo, and he played a song with interest, which was very comfortable. Thinking of the days of intrigue in the past, Wenren Chiba cherishes today's life very much.

"Xiaoqing and Xiaoke went to the field to dig yellow eels, and your sister will make a yellow eel banquet at noon tomorrow." Wenren Qianye said with a smile, without asking Yao Huang about his cultivation progress, but he believed that his sister-in-law must have gained a lot.

"Eel feast?" Yao Huang swallowed his saliva, and then laughed evilly, "Brother-in-law, I want more, and I will add a little brother or little sister to Xiao Ke." ”

Wenren Qianye blushed when she heard this, but she didn't expect her sister-in-law to be so thick-skinned that she laughed at her brother-in-law, and said angrily. "What nonsense is the little girl! Talk nonsense again, let your sister clean you up. ”

Yao Huang stuck out his tongue. ran to the kitchen to help Yao Hong with things. There are plenty of ingredients in the kitchen, but for fear that my sister will go hungry. Yao Hong made a simple meal, a bowl of noodle soup. The soup is made with large bones and noodles and chopped green onions, and it is fragrant and delicious. Yao Huang ate a big bowl and touched her bulging little belly, she decided to go out for a walk, eliminate her appetite and go to see how Yao Qing and them caught yellow eels.

In the spring water dissolves the field, the seedlings are green, and there are many yellow eels swimming in the paddy field. Catching yellow eels is not only a great addition to the family, but also a pleasure. There are many caves on the ridges of the rice paddies and along the ponds of the ditches. Some are yellow eel caves, some are snake caves, some are lobster caves, and country children are born with the ability to discriminate, and they know which one is the yellow eel cave. After discovering the eel cave, the first thing to determine is whether it is in the cave or not. If the water surface of the eel cave has a slight undulation, it must be inside the cave. At this time, put the earthworm on the hook and gently stretch the hole for a while. The yellow eel bites the hook. Once you feel it bite, you should not lift it up, but instead thrust the hook down so that the hook is inserted into the eel's belly. And then bring it up, it's basically nine out of ten.

When Yao Huang walked to the edge of the field, he had to see Yao Qing grabbing the yellow eel with his bare hands.

"Why did you catch it with your hands?" Yao Huang asked as he paced to his younger brother.

"Atul doesn't have a fishing rod. I lent him my fishing rod. Yao Qing and Xiao Ke Baozi were very happy to see Yao Huang coming over, and Xiao Ke directly pounced on them to express their thoughts about their aunt. was held in Yao Huang's arms.

"Atul, who?" Yao Huang felt that the name was unfamiliar. Then he asked.

"That's Atul." Yao Qing pointed to a little boy about ten years old on the side and showed Yao Huang, "He and his father and mother live in Baiyuan Village, sixty miles away, and the village is besieged by homeless people, and his father was killed by homeless people. His mother took him to the village to join Uncle Zhang. Uncle Zhang is his uncle. ”

"How did they get into the village?" Yao Huang asked.

"The village was shrouded in formation, he and his mother couldn't find the village, and his mother gave him all the food along the way, and he was so hungry that he fainted outside the village. Atul's crying alarmed the patrolmen, who led them into the village. Yao Qing said, "He just wants to catch more yellow eels this time and go back to make up for his mother's body." ”

According to the "Compendium of Materia Medica", the meat of yellow eel is sweet and warm, and has the effects of nourishing qi and blood, improving memory, nourishing brain fitness, anti-inflammatory and disinfection, removing wind and dampness, and curing deficiency. Although the people in the village do not know medical skills, they also know that the yellow eel is a good thing.

"This kid is very filial. You're doing a good job. Yao Huang praised his brother's helpful behavior and asked, "However, can you catch the yellow eel with your hands?" ”

"Look down on me, don't you?" Yao Qingniu said angrily, "My "Zixia Gong" has been practiced to the second level, and catching yellow eels is a small meaning. ”

"Oh, how many did you catch?" Yao Huang asked.

"Two."

"So little."

"My sister, if I hadn't talked to you, I would have caught a lot of them."

"Okay, I won't affect you. You catch it. Xiao Ke and I will see how you catch it. ”

"You wait, I'll catch a big yellow eel for you right away." Yao Qing snorted twice and bent down, "Don't disturb me!" ”

"Okay, we won't bother you." The two aunts and nephews covered their mouths with their hands in unison, staring at Yao Qing's next performance with wide eyes.

The yellow eel is the best at digging holes, and when it catches dangerous information, it will immediately dive deep and hide. When catching the eel, you must be quick to catch the eel, otherwise the eel will escape by burrowing into the mud. Yao Qing carefully observed the situation on the ridge, and soon found a hole the size of a thumb, and then searched again, and found another hole. Yao Qing took a breath and squatted down, the index fingers of each of his hands against a hole, and slowly poked into the mud. The mud was soft, and it didn't take much effort to dig deep into the hole. Suddenly, he felt his right index finger touch something slippery.

"Found it." Yao Qing was more careful while being happy, and the index finger of his right hand quickly slid onto the back of the yellow eel, and with a hook of the index finger, he tightened the first three inches of the yellow eel, making it unable to open its mouth to bite. Huang Eel was unwilling to be caught obediently, and twisted his body frantically, and his strength was really not ordinary. Yao Qing's hand was strong and did not let it break free.

Yao Qing strained himself, pulled his right hand out of the mud, and a half-foot-long yellow eel dangled in his hand. Yao Qing proudly showed Yao Huang and Xiao Ke his results, Yao Huang applauded meaningfully, and Xiao Baozi quickly picked up the bamboo and made it into a small basket and held it in front of Yao Qing. Yao Qing praised the little bun and threw the yellow eel into the small basket.

"It's great, my uncle is great." Little Bun looked at the yellow eel writhing in the basket and excitedly offered his worship.

"Hehe," Yao Qing couldn't help but laugh, "Xiao Ke wait, uncle will catch more and more delicious yellow eels for you to eat." (To be continued......)
