244. Sashimi
Feng Lingzi tore at the corner of his clothes, wrapped the handle of the dagger vigorously, and then tried it.
Finally, he thanked the bones in the coffin.
My eyes were fixed on the Jiaozhu, and the old black and the old witch checked the coffin again, and then turned their eyes back to the Jiaozhu after making sure that there was no secret door.
"This thing should be the same as what we saw before, but where is it used?"
I asked.
All of us began to remember the Jiaozhu we had seen earlier.
I always feel like I've seen such a picture somewhere, but I can't confirm it.
"I think it's supposed to be the same as the ones I've seen before."
The old witch said something like nonsense.
It was useless to think about it, so I reached for Jiaozhu.
It can be seen that this thing is also very important to the deceased, even if it has turned into a pile of dry bones, it still took some effort to take the Jiaozhu from his hand.
The round beads are also of excellent color, and if you take them out, they will be priceless.
I'm a half-ass, but I know that the age of only a few things is not comparable to ordinary tombs, and any one of them is the existence of a treasure in the town.
"Restore the coffin."
Lao Hei and Feng Lingzi nodded, and then covered the coffin, the purpose of our trip is no longer to rob the tomb, so this can be regarded as accumulating some yin virtue for ourselves.
There is no way out here, we take the Jiaozhu and turn back, ready to go into the water to see, find a place to put this Jiaozhu, maybe we can go out.
The spiraling tunnel is really difficult to walk.
The main reason is that we haven't eaten for a long time, and our equipment and supplies have been taken away by the people of the Wu Clan, and it is indeed a little uncomfortable to not eat or drink for a few hours.
"I can't walk anymore, take a break."
The old witch was the first to protest.
I nodded, this journey is indeed too tiring, and there is no food or drink, and it is also hard for everyone.
Rest in place.
We leaned against the rammed earth, and there was a little more way to the pontoon bridge we came in.
I rested for a while, ready to go up and have a look.
When Mi Ye saw that I was moving, she also stood up.
"Brother, I'm with you."
I hesitated and nodded, and the two of us walked towards the entrance of the cave.
Before we reached the entrance of the cave, I heard the sound of rushing water.
Mi Ye and I glanced at each other, then took out a short knife, protected Mi Ye behind him, and walked cautiously towards the entrance of the cave.
Because of our eyes, these dull areas don't affect very much.
The water was dark, and it seemed like the lake was already starting to freeze.
I was a little happy because I could see what the black stuff was.
"Brother."
Because of the excitement, my body trembled a little, and Mi Ye thought that it was too dangerous in front of me and subconsciously shouted.
I pointed ahead.
Mi Ye also saw that thing clearly, it was actually a big fish, although I didn't know what it was.
We can't take care of the hunger so much, and now that the food is ready, hurry up and go outside. Standing on the pontoon, watching the fish breathe through the water, they smiled.
"Brother, it's really a fish."
Mi Ye is rarely a little excited.
I swallowed, and was ready to get started.
Mi Ye took my hand.
"What's wrong?"
I'm a little puzzled.
Mi Ye pointed to the leaking teeth of the fish, and I was so frightened that I quickly retracted my outstretched hand.
The sharp teeth were still glowing green, and although I didn't know if it was poisonous or not, my reason quickly overcame my hunger just by looking at those teeth.
"Let's call Feng Lingzi and them first."
I think it's more reliable to call someone who knows how to do it, maybe these fish are the same as puffer fish, as long as the technique is good, they can still be eaten.
Mi Ye nodded and walked towards the entrance of the cave.
After a while, the temptation of food made the three of them quickly appear on the pontoon.
"Wow~ There's something to eat."
Feng Lingzi looked excited.
"But I wonder if I can eat it?"
There is a shortage of medicine in this place, and if we are poisoned, we can only wait to die, and we don't even have a coffin.
"Whatever, catch it up and study it first."
Feng Lingzi was ready to do it, but instead of using his hands like I did, he used his newfound dagger as a harpoon to spear fish.
That is, there are a lot of fish in the water, otherwise I really don't know if I can catch fish in this way.
Just when I was skeptical, Feng Lingzi had already managed to catch a fish.
With only two flashlights, we watched as Feng Lingzi dissected the innocent fish.
The fish that was already a little frozen didn't struggle so much now, and Feng Lingzi seemed to think that the fish's head was too ugly and a bit of an eyesore, so he cut off its head and threw it aside without saying a word.
The smell of blood soon stirred up the fish, and the pool, which had already been somewhat frozen, actually melted away.
Removing the internal organs, Feng Lingzi shows off his superb knife and chef skills.
The crystal clear fish meat made us swallow our saliva one after another.
If it is served with wasabi and soy sauce, it should have the same texture as sashimi.
Feng Lingzi picked up a slice, looked at it carefully, then glanced at us, fed the fillet to his mouth, and then tasted it under our gaze.
The picture was unbearable, and I swallowed my saliva and waited expectantly for Feng Lingzi to say the result.
"Hmm~ sweet and delicious."
Feng Lingzi deliberately dragged out the word um, and then slowly said the result we had been waiting for.
The old witch was the first to feed herself a piece.
Squinting your eyes, it's definitely enjoying it.
I didn't say much to pick up a slice, and it was delicious, and the melt-in-your-mouth meat didn't know how many streets away from the fish I had eaten before.
Feng Lingzi grabbed a few more, and took a dagger and quickly gave us fish fillets.
I don't know how much the dagger got on it, but we can't care about it now.
As a few people sat on the pontoon and burped, about an hour after we first fed the fillet, I burped contentedly as I looked at the fish heads all over the floor.
"Boy, bring Jiaozhu."
Feng Lingzi was really not defeated by the food, and he was still thinking about how to get out.
This makes me a little embarrassed.
Hurriedly took out the Jiaozhu and handed it to Feng Lingzi.
He looked at it, and then jumped down the pool with a thud, and the fish went crazy.
I looked at the school of fish stirring on the surface of the water, and I was actually confused.
"Brother."
Mi Ye patted me.
"Feng Lingzi~"
I shouted.
But he was gone.
I was about to jump, but I was stopped by Lao Hei and Mi Ye.
"Let go of me."
I yelled, but they didn't let me go.
The old witch glanced at the waterhole.
Pick up the fish heads and bones on the bridge, and start throwing them at the other side of Feng Lingzi's down.
The fish were quickly attracted by the smell of their own blood, and swam towards the heads and bones, and began to scramble for food, not at all minding that these were their kind.
