Chapter 67: Huang Goya
"You're Uncle Stone's child? My name is Ah Yang. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info "The child who took the lead spoke.
Tang Ge said: "You can call me Little Stone." ”
Ah Yang nodded and said to Tang Ge: "Let's go fishing, let's go together." Don't worry, Ah Liang also goes over there often, and there will be no danger. ”
Hearing Ah Yang's clear explanation, Tang Ge couldn't help but nodded, and secretly said that this kid is really smart, and when he grows up in the future, he is estimated to be a man of the hour in the wasteland.
A group of people began to set off in a fight, taking care of Ah Liang's speed, they didn't walk fast. Tang Ge always thought that Ah Liang would be bullied by the children, but now he knows that this is not the case, there are children who are naughty and tease Ah Liang, and it seems that bullying him will not happen. This tribe is not big, and everyone can only survive if they hug tightly, so Ah Liang's treatment in the tribe is much better than Tang Ge originally thought.
At the foot of the mountain is a small river, but there are several large pools. The waterhole has a steep slope on one side and a shallow shoal on the other. Fishing sits on the top of the slope, and the bamboo pole sticks out to a depth of one or two meters in the water. It may have rained upstream, and the river was muddy.
sat down one by one, and Tang Ge also loaded the earthworms for Ah Liang. Ah Liangfei asked Tang Ge to fish, and he watched from the side. Tang Ge does have itchy hands, and he has been in this world for almost half a year, except for the time when Da Shi took him to see the black Jiao, he has never fished at any other time. You must know that in his previous life, he was a fishing enthusiast, and he had to drive out to find a place to have a good time, or he couldn't sleep well.
Tang Ge was not polite, took the bamboo pole and began to prepare the line group. Ah Liang's fishing rod is dried bamboo, about three meters, and the line is animal tendon line, which is much more elaborate than other children's fishing lines or hemp rope or animal skins. The hook is a bone hook, and the shape is very unrestrained. Tang Ge estimated that this hook was not a fish of one or twenty catties, and it was difficult to swallow it in his mouth. It just so happened that he had the fish hook he brought when he went out in his waist, so he picked a small one and changed it. I used two ends to cut off the hollow bones in the middle to make a macaroni pendant, and there was no floating, so I could only tighten the fishing line and watch the rod slightly.
As soon as the fishing group got out of the water, Tang Ge was also very excited. The feeling of being lost for a long time, it is said that he grew up playing with bamboo poles in the pond in the river when he was a child, but he didn't expect to come to another world and experience it again.
It didn't take long for fish to take the bait one after another, and they were all big yellow catlets. This fish has black flowers on a yellow background and a snow-white belly. There is a long spine on the dorsal fin and a long spine on each of the two fins on the abdomen. The spines are slightly poisonous, if they are stabbed, they will be hot and painful, because when they are caught, this kind of fish will keep shaking the fish bones up and down, and it will make a "squeak" sound, so Tang Ge's hometown also calls this fish Goya, and the south is called Yellow Wax Ding, and there are also called Ang Thorn Fish, Yellow Bone Fish.
The mouth of the goya fish is large and looks very much like that of a catfish. If the fish bones are removed, the pattern on the body is lighter, and it will be exactly the same as a catfish. This kind of fish generally doesn't grow big, and the largest one Tang Ge has caught in his previous life is just over seven taels. But the smallest ones caught in this river are six or seven taels, and the big ones are estimated to be one catty, round, fat, and look very fond of people.
In addition to the spines on the body, there are patterns, and there is a fin on the back, the rest of the fish is the same as the catfish, and there are no scales on the body, and there are no small spines, this kind of fish meat is very delicate, and the taste is very good, whether it is fried, fried, stewed, boiled, it is a rare delicacy.
With the catch, a few little kids can't be idle. The one who collects firewood, the life of making a fire, and the one who is responsible for selecting fish. Choose this kind of fish without a knife, pull the mouth of the fish and tear it, and all the internal organs will be exposed. Remove the gills and pick out the little intestines in the stomach, and the whole fish will be cleaned up, which is simple and fast.
As long as the fish is wrapped in hemp leaves, tied up and burned in the fire, you can make a very delicious grilled fish. When wrapping hemp leaves, Tang Ge found that these children even had salt with them, Tang Ge knew that this tribe was definitely not rich enough to give salt to the children to cause trouble, these dead bear children dared to steal salt out to grill fish, and they might not face what kind of domestic violence they would face when they went back. Tang Ge handed over the fine salt in his waist and motioned for this. A group of little children were also shocked by Tang Ge's local tyrant behavior, and there was more awe in their eyes when they looked at Tang Ge.
After a while, the hemp leaf grilled fish was ready, Ah Yang first picked two of the best hemp leaf buns that he had mastered and sent them to Tang Ge and Ah Liang, Tang Ge was not polite, the bamboo pole was inserted into the ground, and the hemp leaf buns began to feast. As soon as the hemp leaf bag was opened, the aroma suddenly came to the face. Under the golden skin of the fish is a smooth and tender fish as white as snow, which makes people drool when it looks like it. The delicate aroma of the fish and leaves is mixed together, making it more fragrant and tender. It's easy to eat, but it's absolutely top-notch and has a lot of fun.
You must know that in Tang Ge's previous life, the price of this rhubarb cathoin is not cheap, in some places these things are sold more expensive than live shrimp, and the taste of rhubarb cathoin is also worthy of its price. Now it's just a simple hemp leaf wrap and burn it in the fire, but it doesn't taste fishy or greasy, and it is full of fragrance. The meat is fatty and tender, but chewy. The taste is much stronger than that of crucian carp, carp, grass carp, and even worse than the taste of prawns.
Fresh fish is delicious, but not full. Although he hadn't had breakfast for a long time, Tang Ge still ate five or six of them. Ah Liang is quite big, but his appetite is not very good, so he stopped eating two of them.
After eating the fish and then fishing, it can be regarded as a ghost, Tang Ge knows that the muddy water after the rain is the golden time to fish Goya, but this one after another, the other fish can't even see a shadow, this situation is also rare.
The other children went swimming after filling their bellies, and Ah Liang said that he had bad hands and feet and couldn't go into the water, and Tang was also very happy.
I'm tired of playing, and it's time for Ah Liang to take a nap. Tang Ge and he rushed home with a string of fish. Tang Ge cleaned up the fish and soaked it in the water, so that it would not deteriorate easily, and when he looked back after being busy, Ah Liang had fallen asleep beautifully. Even in his sleep, Ah Liang had a handsome smile on his face. Tang Ge couldn't help but sigh that fate was unfair, if only Ah Liang was smarter. Even a little bit is fine.
In the afternoon, the big stone they returned. They didn't go far this time, they just gathered the traps around the tribe and checked for traps or something. A few people didn't hunt much prey, but Mao Lizi picked up a big bag.
A pheasant in the prey pile attracted Tang Ge's attention, this pheasant's tail feathers were super long, Tang Ge pulled off the tail feathers, compared them, and estimated that one had to be more than one meter. Tang Ge had an idea, and thought about using his tail feathers to make a purple and gold crown for Ah Liang, just like Sun Wukong's phoenix wings purple gold crown in the play.
Do what you want, check out a few tail feathers of similar length, Tang Ge found a bamboo pipe, desperately opened the joints in it, and put the tail feathers in. When I return to the tribe, I will make a purple and gold crown with copper, add these two young tails, and find some gems to decorate it, it must be very beautiful. When the time comes, I will get one for myself, and the effect will be so majestic. Thinking about it, Tang Ge was a little excited.
When he went to bed that night, Tang Ge suddenly remembered a very important question, that is, Uncle Tong was obviously younger than Da Shi, how could he give birth to such a big son? asked Da Shi, but Da Shi smiled and didn't answer, which made Tang Ge very confused.
In the blink of an eye, two days have passed, and it is time to separate. Ah Liang's legs and feet are not good, so the old Tongshu family of three stopped when they sent the big stone father and son outside the tribe.
Over there, Da Shi and Lao Tongshu said goodbye, here, Ah Liang took Tang Ge's hand, crying so much, he didn't let go of his hand alive or dead, and said that he shouldn't be separated from his younger brother.
Tang Ge's eyes were also wet, after two days of getting along, Tang Ge had completely accepted this stupid brother who was bent on protecting himself, and now that it was time to separate, he was also very sad. After repeatedly promising that if he had the opportunity to come to see Ah Liang, Tang Ge, who was afraid that he couldn't help but cry, set off first.
After climbing the opposite mountain beam, Tang Ge looked back and saw that Ah Liang was still standing in place and waving his hand to himself. Tang Ge clasped his hands around his mouth and shouted at Ah Liang: "Brother Liang, you have to be good." I'll definitely be coming back to see you! Take care!! ”
Ah Liang's hands waved more urgently. Tang Ge's tears finally couldn't help but gush out, and he yelled: "Brother Liang! I'm leaving!!! Then he set off on the road without looking back.
Parting is always sad, and Tang Ge is still in a heavy mood after driving for a long time.
"Isn't the relationship between Uncle Tong's tribe and our tribe very good?" Tang Ge asked.
Big Stone replied, "Very well, indeed." In the early years, in order to let the fat witch treat her injuries, your ninth aunt almost lived in our tribe. ”
Tang Ge continued to ask: "As a chief, does his clansmen have to obey whatever Uncle Tong says?" ”
Da Shi said: "That's not necessarily, if it's an outrageous decision, the clansmen can completely disobey him." ”
Tang Ge said: "Is it possible to merge the Beishan tribe into our tribe?" In this way, their living conditions can be greatly improved. Tang Ge finally said what he really thought.
Da Shi glanced at Tang Ge deeply, and said slowly: "It's difficult. You must know that although your Uncle Tong's tribe is not big, they have totems. Each tribe has different totems, so the beliefs are also different. Tribes with their own beliefs will always remain loyal to their totems unless they are destroyed. Merging into someone else's tribe requires believing in someone else's totem, so it's almost impossible. ”
Tang Ge said: "But our tribe doesn't have totems. So there is no conflict with their beliefs. Besides, even if the two tribes merge together, they can still keep their totems and beliefs, and no one will force them to change or anything. ”
Dashi shook his head, still stubbornly saying, "This matter is too difficult to do, almost impossible. ”
Tang Ge sighed and stopped arguing with the big stone. Just hurrying with his head down.
"I want to have a coming-of-age ceremony." Tang Ge, who was hurrying, said coldly.
"No! It's too early. The startled Big Stone said.
Tang Ge said: "I need an identity, an adult identity, so the coming-of-age ceremony must be held." ”
Da Shi carefully distinguished with Tang Ge: "No, you are still too young to be old." And when you're in the tribe, the people listen to you. You want an identity that is nothing more than dealing with people outside the tribe, you are not old enough, and others will not recognize it if you have an identity. ”
Tang Ge was silent again.
Although the rite of passage is different for each tribe, the age requirements are also different. But in general, it is necessary to ensure that the children's age is over thirteen or fourteen, Tang Ge is only nine years old now, and he is simply a little child. If the coming-of-age ceremony is held, the people of other tribes will not only not recognize his identity, but will laugh at him.
