Episode 13: Upgraded Seafood Feast!
One seashell, one anchovy, two eels, seven horseshoe snails........ By the freshwater stream not far from the shelter, looking at the prey placed in front of him, Cheng Fei had a satisfied smile on his face, there was no doubt that he had a good mouth today, and a sumptuous seafood feast was beckoning to him.
Among the prey, the conch does not need to be cleaned, but the two eels need to be disemboweled and cleaned internally, this kind of fish is slippery, and for a rookie like Cheng Fei, it took a lot of effort to take care of it. In the end, he set out to deal with the sea shell, and, now that he had recognized it as a pearl oyster, he still had some other expectations in his heart:
"I don't know, can you bloom pearls?"
Although, nowadays, the pearl farming industry is very developed, and pearls are no longer a rare thing, of course, this is for ordinary pearls. There are exceptions to everything, and if he can produce the best pearls, just like the six golden pearls he had accidentally obtained earlier, they are also rare treasures, and they are worth as much.
The closed force of the live seashell is extremely strong, and it is generally not easy to open, but Cheng Fei now has more strength, so he quickly used a firewood knife to pry the shell open.
"There really are pearls!"
Looking at the little pearls wrapped in the mussel meat, Cheng Fei's face was full of surprise, and at that moment, he hurriedly took out a few pearls hidden in the mussel meat one by one.
Eleven, among these seashells, there are eleven pearls!
Crystal clear white pearls, although not as rich and gorgeous as gold pearls, but have a unique elegance, in color and texture, can be regarded as the best grade. However, it is a pity that among the eleven pearls, eight of them are small beads with a diameter of less than ten millimeters, and the remaining three, although they are all more than fifteen millimeters in diameter, the largest of them is not round enough.
The value of a pearl is not only in size, color, texture, but also in roundness.
However, pearls, whether natural or artificially cultivated, have too much uncontrollability in the process of growth, so this itself is a helpless thing.
Fortunately, Cheng Fei is not an insatiable person, and being able to get these pearls is an unexpected harvest in itself. So, after a little sigh, he put away the pearls and washed the mussels. After all, pearls are good, but they don't starve, and in comparison, mussels that are still large are more attractive to him!
Back at his residence, Cheng Fei put the two eels on the grill, cooked the mussel meat in soup, the horseshoe snail was the simplest, just put it directly by the fire, but the anchovy snail, because he was afraid of the shell, he was afraid of being burned by the fire, so he first wrapped it with banana leaves before putting it into the fire.
Soon, the smell of meat was overflowing all around, which made Cheng Fei's saliva flow. Fortunately, the anxious wait did not last long, the eels on the grill gradually turned brown, the mussel broth began to boil, and the charcoal-grilled conch in the fire also made a "sizzling" sound.
"It's time to go!"
After working hard for most of the day, it was finally time to enjoy the results, Cheng Fei, who had been hungry for a long time, hurriedly took a grilled eel and started to move.
The fish is tender, the soup is delicious, and the snail meat is chewy, and today is the sixteenth day that Cheng Fei has come to this desert island, but this is the second time he has eaten in the real sense, and he has to say that the feeling of stuffing his mouth with meat is very satisfying.
After eating and drinking, Cheng Fei patted his slightly swollen belly with satisfaction, first cleaned and put away the anchovy snails that were ready to be taken away, and then walked in the nearby woods.
As the saying goes, walk a hundred steps after a meal and live to ninety-nine. In the past, when he was at home, he was used to the fast-paced life in the city, and even if he knew these truths, he rarely did it, but now that he is trapped on this lonely desert island, he has leisurely and taken a walk, which is a good choice to pass the time.
"Boom la la ........."
In the direction of the waterhole, there was another sound, no need to look, Cheng Fei also knew that it must have been made by the giant crocodile again, but unfortunately, now he has not fully mastered the power after the transformation, otherwise, he would have wanted to hunt this big guy, after all, such a big piece of meat is enough for him to eat until the mission returns.
However, he just thought about it, that giant crocodile was six or seven meters long, it looked very fierce, and it definitely belonged to the kind of existence that stood at the top of the food chain in nature, even if he was now reborn, fighting with such a behemoth still has a lot of danger. Therefore, unless it is a last resort, he will definitely not fight the idea of that giant crocodile.
The noise in the direction of the waterhole gradually subsided, and it was clear that the giant crocodile had fallen asleep.
Cheng Fei also returned to his residence to rest, and he had no dreams all night, and the next morning, he got up early in the morning and practiced boxing on the beach near his residence.
This set of Baguazhang from the world of suffering is very profound and mysterious, after all, this is the number one superior exercise method that can be ranked in the world of high martial arts, and if you change others, you don't want to get started, but Cheng Fei is different, he who directly got the inheritance, he easily crossed the threshold, plus the body of a quasi-martial artist after transformation, he can be called talented, although it is only two or three days, but it has allowed him to master some Ming Jin.
The so-called Ming Jin is to know your own strength, through exercise, you can mobilize your body, control your bones, twist the strength of your abdomen, waist and legs into a single force, and burst out all your strength.
It can be said that the strength of the martial artist at the level of Ming Jin lies largely in the strength of the martial artist himself, if the potential is limited, even if the Ming Jin is successful, it may not be much stronger than ordinary people;
Today's Cheng Fei belongs to the latter!
The primary martial artist enhancement liquid from the starry sky world made his body transform, and he had thousands of kilograms of strength in every move, as long as he could master this power proficiently, he could have good combat power.
Stepping on the Nine Palaces and holding the gossip, Cheng Fei practiced more than ten times in one breath before he stopped, opened his mouth slightly, and spit out a white air current, which was one or two feet long, and after a while, it gradually dissipated.
I have to say that practicing martial arts is really a good way to master strength, Cheng Fei only feels that every time he cultivates, there is a lot of gain, and the surge of strength in his body is more and more able to control it freely, between the surging qi and blood, the whole body is warm, not only does he feel tired, but his spirit is becoming more and more vigorous.
Taking advantage of the surging blood and energy, he immediately picked up the wooden spear and practiced a burst of stabbing and projection, which is the basic skill of hunting, he must improve his proficiency as soon as possible, not 100 percent, at least more than 60 percent of the hit rate, can be regarded as barely passing.
After the training, he went straight to the coral reef sea, and in a short time, he harvested more than a dozen large conchs, although only one of them was a phoenix snail, and the size was not as huge as the one yesterday, and the rest were horseshoe snails, but for Cheng Fei, who just wanted to eat meat, this was not a problem.
Of course, these conches are not enough to provide Cheng Fei with sufficient energy, but they are enough to maintain basic survival needs. This means that he can put aside his food concerns today and do what he wants to do. And what he wants to do most now is nothing more than to complete the second side quest and get another mysterious treasure chest!
So, for the rest of the day, he decided to go deep into the island's mountains and forests to hunt.
He vividly remembers that he had spotted a wild boar while exploring the island's forests. At that time, he was just a simple rookie adventurer, not to mention that meat was powerless, and he was not much stronger, so he didn't dare to fight that guy's idea, but now it's different.
After the drug has completed his transformation, Cheng Fei has long been different, although he still doesn't dare to provoke the six- or seven-meter-long giant crocodile, but a small wild boar has long been out of his eyes.
"It's been a long time since I've eaten pure wild boar, and tonight, buddy is going to eat roast pig!"
Now that he had an idea in his heart, no matter how difficult it was to contain it, Cheng Fei immediately took action, and after hastily eating a few charcoal-grilled conchs, he took a firewood knife, a wooden spear and a pot of fresh water and embarked on a hunting trip in the mountains and forests...........
