"God above, I really don't know when this 'devil's breath' came to the fish basket, the most beautiful lady, please believe me."

"And beautiful ladies are always away from bad luck, ma'am. Trust me, God will bless you with forgiveness and beauty. ”

The fish vendor faced a chubby, fifty-year-old woman anxiously and flatteringly apologized, and casually took a small blue-gray thing out of the fish basket, and threw it at Li Weiyang's feet.

Li Weiyang, who was startled, looked fixedly, and a small thing the size of a palm, eight legs, covered with blue-gray carapace, was holding two big pincers and gesturing with him...

"Uncle Lu, Uncle Lu, take a look at what this is?"

Li Weiyang cautiously raised the little cyan monster with teeth and claws, and excitedly raised it in front of Lu Dahai's eyes, suppressing a trace of imperceptible excitement in his words.

"Huh? Ha ha! It's a crab, good guy, it's not small, throw it in the pot, throw it in the pot. Lu Dahai snatched the crab in Li Weiyang's hand and threw it into the boiling belt soup, while explaining it to Li Weiyang.

"Xiao Weiyang, we're lucky, do you know, this is the freshest delicacy in the world. You are too young, we have been running around in the desert Gobi in the past few years, and it is not strange that we have never seen crabs. Don't be afraid, don't look at this thing ugly, the taste is indeed delicious, you little thing is blessed, you don't have to gnaw on cowhide this meal, hahaha"

Lu Dahai was excited because of this delicious food that fell from the sky, Li Weiyang pretended not to know what the crab was, and said, "Is it so scary that it will be delicious?!" "Oh?! "Ahh "Really?! ".

The crab was cooked when it entered the water, and Lu Dahai saw that the rampant king's cyan back shell had turned red, and regardless of the boiling water, he took the crab out of the pot. When the crab shell is opened, the strange fragrance is fragrant, and the snow-white crab paste in the stomach is about to burst out.

Well, it's a male crab.

Lu Dahai carefully removed all the crab paste and stuffed it into Li Weiyang's mouth.

He broke off the crab's two big pincers, and with a slight pinch of his fingers, the shell of the crab claws cracked into several pieces, and the thick snow-white crab claw meat was exposed, and he handed it to Li Weiyang, "Weiyang, try it while it's hot."

Looking at the sweetness of Li Weiyang's eating, Lu Dahai smiled and broke the crab body into three or four pieces, and after simply removing the crab gills, he threw them into his mouth one by one, and chewed the crab meat and crab shells together.

Two hungry men wiped out the half-pounded crab almost instantly. The two stomachs that had absorbed the delicious taste were not only not satisfied, but the hunger that could have been barely endured could no longer be suppressed.

"Uncle Lu, this fish cart is from the Jiankun River, and the crabs must come from there, I, I still want to eat!"

"If you want to eat, you can leave!"

。。。

Driven by hunger, the two of them rushed to the Jiankun River in a blink of an eye, only to see that the Jiankun River was two or three hundred meters wide, the water quality was clear, and the flow rate was slow. From afar, it looks like a white ribbon lying softly on a vast meadow, with the occasional reed raft or two of the local endemic in the sparkling waves weaving across the river.

Although Lu Dahai is a big hero and a good man who is not afraid of heaven and earth, he only has a mysterious fear of lakes and rivers, simply put, he is a little afraid of water. So even when the two of them were hungry with their chests against their backs, and even when the cowhide belts were boiled and eaten, they didn't think of foraging for food by the Jiankun River.

When I came down to the river, I didn't forget to tell Li Weiyang, "Weiyang, let's try our luck here, just catch two crabs by the water, don't enter the water, water and fire are ruthless, remember to remember!" ”

"Understood!"

In fact, if you think about it carefully, it seems that the two of them have never seen anyone eat crabs in these countries that they have traveled all the way west from the border of Seris, and the locals generally regard crabs as a large insect.

Especially when you enter the Kugit grassland, although there are many ethnic groups and different customs, they all have no good impression of crabs. Extreme points will also put names such as "devil's breath", "water spider", "eight-legged water bug" and so on on the crab's head, and the discrimination and prejudice against me are overflowing.

Thanks to the lack of knowledge of the locals, they have always been respectful of crabs, so the crabs here are not only not afraid to run when they see people, but also take Liang Jingru to give them courage, and when they meet people on a narrow road, they know that they are standing there holding two big tongs to demonstrate.

Lu Dahai led Li Weiyang to look carefully in the reeds by the river for a while, and easily caught three or four, and luckily found a nest of waterfowl eggs, and the two didn't have time to return to the town, so they caught fire by the river, found a big slate and enjoyed a meal of slate crab and roasted eggs.

Foodies are the best friends of foodies, and after soothing and filling their empty bellies, they also nourish the minds stagnant by hunger, and the two of them blow the breeze from the river, and they come up with a way to make money here.

The next day, the two came to the market and used a silver coin hidden in Li Weiyang's hair to buy two large clay pots, a small bag of flour, a few pairs of pottery bowls, wooden spoons and salt and other common local spices.

Immediately, he found a safe place to hide these large bags and small wraps. The two of them took a clay pot and killed directly to the Jiankun River, and the next thing was to catch crabs, cook and dig meat, catch crabs, cook and dig meat. From noon to night, I was busy for most of the day and finally filled this large clay pot.

The next day, a small food stall appeared in the East Gate Market in Acomo.

The stall owner was a stout, dark-faced, dark-haired Seris man with a little boy who looked like a father and son.

Two small fires were lit in front of the unremarkable stalls, each with a large clay pot, which gurgled and boiled something, emitting a strange aroma that the Akomo had never been exposed to.

When someone passed by the stall, the little boy would call out to him: "Look and see, lucky people, this is from afar, you have never seen it, Seris's delicious 'Tears of the Pearl Goddess', two copper coins (two hundred copper coins are equivalent to one silver dirkhan coin) a bowl, two copper coins a bowl, two copper coins you can't buy at a loss, two copper coins you can't buy a loss." For the first three days, the first bowl is free to taste! Only for the first three days! ”

Although the words shouted by the Seris kid were strange, it still made people understand that it should be a kind of food for their Seris.

It's human nature to be curious, and this is from the far-flung and legendary land of honey and milk—Seris!

And the name, you listen, 'Tears of the Pearl Goddess', how beautiful and fascinating, and in a short time there was a large crowd of people around the stall. After a short wait-and-see experience, someone finally couldn't stand the aroma in the clay pot, and heard that they could taste a bowl for free, so they began to try it.

"Kid, is it really the first bowl that doesn't cost money?"

"Of course, everyone can prove it."

"What about the second bowl?"

"Haha, only the first bowl is free, and after that, two copper coins. The gods are above, and that's fair. So, do you want to give it a try? ”

"Okay, give Uncle a bowl."

A small man with a goatee took the 'Tears of the Pearl Goddess' handed over by Li Weiyang, and saw that the viscous milky white soup in the bowl was soaked in some small balls of pearl-sized noodles, with some small white shredded meat distributed in wisps, and some minced shallots that can be seen everywhere on the Gobi (yes, the officials did not guess wrong, it is the soulmate of the barbecue in the northern stalls - the gnocchi soup, or the luxurious upgraded version with a large amount of crab meat).

"It smells so good." The little goatee gently scooped a small spoonful with a spoon and blew it into his mouth.

"Hmm~~~mia, mia, mia".

After a pause, another big spoonful was immediately added.

"Hmm~~~mia, mia, mia".

Spoonful after spoonful, the frequency is getting higher and higher, and the small pottery bowl is at the bottom in a blink of an eye.

The onlookers all stared at the little goatee, eagerly observing his reaction, but this guy didn't seem to see everyone's anxious eyes, squinted his slender eyes, turned around and squeezed out of the crowd, and just staggered away.

“？？？”

The onlookers were confused, what is the situation?

Finally, a second or third person joined the tasting team.

"Ahh It's delicious! ”

"yes, yes, I've never seen it before."

The effect of tasting is obvious, in front of my great Chinese food, Acomo's group of otherworldly buns is simply powerless, you and I will sweep away the luxurious gnocchi soup of thirty or forty catties in two large clay pots in less than half a day.

In the evening, the two of them returned to the abandoned small mud house where they lived, and excitedly took out the money bag that was still empty when they went out in the morning. The two of them looked at the money bag as if they were staring at their own precious child, and when it was confirmed that the money bag was visibly fat, the two 'old fathers' were relieved.

poured out the copper coins in the bag, and the two of them didn't dare to light the light, so they counted them by the faint moonlight.

"One, two、。。。。。。 One hundred and thirty-five, one hundred and thirty-six. ”

"So much? Uncle Lu comes, I'll count it again... Yes, there are really one hundred and thirty-six, Uncle Lu, it seems that we don't have to go hungry for the time being. ”

"Hehe, yes."

"In this way, Uncle Lu, although no one has noticed that we use crabs as the main ingredient, it will inevitably be discovered after a long time of one or two months, which will be too unfavorable for us to gain a foothold here. Let's be careful, catch crabs at night, and try to come up with something new before we find out. ”

"Okay, little clever ghost, listen to you!"
