Chapter 182: Returning Home (continued)
Sunny weather is usually a good mood, especially for fishermen who go out to sea in the early hours of the morning.
Because good weather means that the fish are active, they can harvest more, and if they are lucky, they may even meet rare seafood.
The sun had risen, and the seagulls were still hovering around the docks of Flying Fish Island, looking for some of the seafood that had been missed from the boats, and perhaps a full meal.
A few chirps from time to time, snatching food from each other with their companions.
A group of imps who are used to being wild on the beach, because of the holiday, are also wandering around here, looking for a boat, a boat, doing the same thing as a seagull.
They can dive into the sea with a harpoon to hunt, or they can catch big fish with a leisurely fish, but instead of searching for treasure, they are hopeful to find big fish that are likely to be missed by adults, or fish heads that have been cut off.
There may be nothing, or you may be able to find the head of the legendary white-sided dolphin fish, the smooth skin of the springy teeth, the delicate flesh under the gills, like the big flesh of the crescent of the moon, and the soft and sweet fish brain.
The excitement and joy that wells up from the depths of the heart is incomparable, and there is nothing more exciting for a child.
The head of a fish, which is comparable to half a person's head, took out the pepper leaves that took most of the time to find, and wrapped them layer by layer.
Then the fish head is rolled on the mudflat, let it stick to the thick sea mud, and finally throw it into the charcoal fire to roast at will, and by the way, nest an egg or two next to the fire, or dragon scale flower nails, large conch and other snacks with broken mouths.
In the evening, a group of people sneaked up the head of the fish like a thief from the charcoal fire, and the sea salt in the sea mud had seeped into the flesh of the fish and mixed with the fragrance of pepper leaves.
At this time, the fragrance of the white-fin guinea fish is fully stimulated, and with each layer of pepper leaves, the fragrance will be more intense, and the saliva secretion of a group of little children who look like thieves will be more vigorous.
Until the last layer of pepper leaves is removed, under the silver moonlight, the white-sided guinea fish will emit a little glow, and the steaming heat and aroma will come to the nose, which is extremely tempting.
In the end, a group of little ghosts were full of joy to eat the tender and sweet fish, which was so sweet that even when swallowing saliva, you could feel the deliciousness of the fish.
Some of the brave ones even stole a bottle or two of ale from their homes and drank and sang like adults.
Showing off how many times you have been spanked by your parents without crying, or discussing topics such as that little girl is beautiful and wants to marry her as a wife when she grows up.
In the end, under the cries of a group of little children being beaten, and the schadenfreude of some teenagers who have experienced these things, the night of Flying Fish Island can be regarded as a real come.
The next day, some of the children limped, forgetting the pain of the previous night, and began to explore and adventure the treasure again.
"Doge, did you find it?" Hoka led a group of imps to crawl out of the fish cabin, their bodies full of fishy smell, and even the tip of their noses was inadvertently stuck with a piece of fish scales.
He shouted at the other boat, and the group of children had split into two squads, so that the search would be quicker.
"No, there's nothing here, Uncle Wopu is so stingy, his boat doesn't even have small shrimp." Hoka likewise shouted.
It's a little windier today, and if it's not loud, it's very likely that the person on the other side won't be able to hear it.
"Miserly, I curse you to wet the bed every day." Hoka shouted loudly into the sky, perhaps the most vicious curse for him.
Suddenly, a figure appeared, holding Hoka's head and rubbing it vigorously, as if he would not give up until his hair was messed up.
"Is it really good that you curse your dad like this? Aren't you afraid of being beaten? ”
A familiar voice sounded, which made Hoka, who was originally full of anger, stunned for a moment, and instantly became happy, and his face was no longer angry, and his face was full of smiles.
"Ivan, you're back." Hoka turned around, looked up at Ivan and said, ignoring his chicken-coop hairstyle.
"yes, it's back, what's the matter, did Dovra promise to be your wife?" Ivan joked.
Hoka likes Dovra of the Raff family, but Dovra doesn't seem to like Hoka very much, and Ivan often teases him about this incident, which is also a funny thing.
Hearing Ivan's words, Hoka's obviously happy expression froze, and the next second, his face turned extremely red, and even hot air came out, and even his raised head was lowered.
"One day, Dovra will be my wife." Hoka said to Ivan with a flushed face.
"Hahaha, I'm waiting for that day, Hoka." Ivan smiled heartily.
"It's Ivan."
"You're back, isn't it fun to be far away!"
The other little kids were also very happy to see Ivan, and circled around him, even Dog in the distance.
"A little gift for you." Ivan said, taking out a large handful of beef jerky from the backpack behind his back and distributing it to the group of children.
It is a specialty of the Toba people, a small one, but it is very resistant to chewing, and every time you chew, you can eat the unique sweetness of beef from the jerky, as well as a little spice taste.
This kind of beef jerky, which used to be used by the Toba people to save their lives, can support the consumption of two or three sticks for a day, and now it has become a specialty and is sold to tourists who come to visit.
For people who often eat beef, the taste is not very good, but for the little children of Flying Fish Island who rely on seafood every day, it is a rare delicacy.
The beef jerky in front of them made a group of children forget how Ivan returned to Flying Fish Island, and in high spirits, they began to chew beef jerky one after another, looking very funny.
"Alright, you guys take your time to find the treasure, I'll go first. By the way, I'll let you know a little secret, your food luck is very good today, remember to share a little with me then. Ivan smiled at the group of imps.
Under the domineering perception of seeing and hearing, he already knew that Uncle Doku, who likes to play pranks, deliberately forgot a bluefin marlin in the fish cabin, which may not be as good as the legendary whitefin guinea fish, but it is also an extremely delicious fish.
In the tavern, when the little kids are looking for a big treasure, a group of fishermen have already been drinking for a long time, and the atmosphere is in full swing, and the tavern resounds with a characteristic noise.
"Yo ho ho ho, those little kids, they still want to find good fish, hmph, I don't even leave fish scales for them." Voop, who was already half-drunk, threw the oak wine glass on the table and boasted arrogantly to the other fishermen.
"Click, Wolp, you've done a great job." The other fishermen grinned and gave a thumbs up to.
"Uh" Doku burped and sneered, "Hehe, I left them a big fish, look at your little ghost, don't make trouble at night." ”
"Bastard Doku, beat him." The other fishermen laughed and cursed, and some even grabbed the salt-and-pepper octopus on their plates and threw it over.
But unfortunately, it didn't hit him, but was eaten by Doku in a mouth.
"Hey, hey, Magino, when will Ivan come back, that little bastard, he actually sent the souvenir back first, and the person hasn't come back yet, it's really unusual."
Raff's face was flushed, and even his beard was covered with a lot of wine foam, and he opened his mouth with drunken eyes, expressing his dissatisfaction.
"It's been about the past two days, and I talked to him on the phone yesterday, and it seems that I'm coming back soon." Magino, wiping the glass, smiled.
Perhaps because his brother was coming back, Magino's smile was brighter than ever.
"Babble"
At this moment, the wooden door of the tavern was opened.
"I think I hear someone talking about me."
A familiar voice sounded, and the whole noisy tavern was silenced, but the next moment.
"Ivan pour me wine!" Woop said loudly.
"I'm going to !! too"
"Give me a dozen !!"
Suddenly, the tavern became even more noisy. 11
