Chapter 20 Silver Pomfret?

"No, just eat this." Zhong Xuyao puffed up his face with some dissatisfaction, "You can't get it." What about the coolies who say yes, and what do I say I say? ”

Nick's face flushed, "I'll do it right away." ”

Nick's long nails run over the belly of the fish and begin to expertly gut the fish.

Although they don't eat much fish, they have been handling the carcasses of wild beasts for many years, and they are not ordinarily strong in this area.

At Zhong Xuyao's suggestion, Nick removed the gills of the Flat Water Beast, and the black clothes on the flesh were also removed. However, the scales were not removed.

Zhong Xuyao found a wooden stick and inserted it into the mouth of the flatwater beast. Put it inside a fire.

"Xiaoxiao, you really want to eat the Flat Water Beast." Bernie twitched, a little disgusted.

"Well, try it. Anyway, as long as it's not poisonous, you can eat it. Zhong Xuyao looked at the flat water beast in the fire, and couldn't help drooling a little.

She'd been eating broth for a long time, and it was time for a change of taste.

Time passed little by little, and the surrounding stoves were extinguished one by one. This time, they themselves were just learning how to make blood tofu, not stockpiling, plus the hairy fruit recommended by Barron later, so they didn't plan to make much, more, just to taste the taste.

Soon, only the one where Zhong Xuyao was left in the fire. At the signal of the witch elder, the others left first. There are only Yi Xiu, Nick, Fenal, Bernie, and Bout, who are more familiar to Zhong Xuyao.

An enticing scent came from the fire. This made Zhong Xuyao, who had not been able to eat for several days, couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

Bernie sniffled, "Tiny, is this really a Flatwater Beast?" It smells so good. ”

She really didn't understand why such a stinky flat water beast would be so fragrant after roasting, and the best five-flowered beast didn't have such a big contrast.

"Well, it's a pity, there is no seasoning, so I can only make do with hairy fruit." Zhong Xuyao took out the stick that had been inserted on the Flat Water Beast and took it out.

Nearly a meter long fish, she is not ordinarily difficult to hold.

Standing on the side, Nick suddenly became nervous, he grabbed the wooden stick and smiled, "Xiaoxiao, I'll take it." ”

Seeing that he took the initiative, Zhong Xuyao naturally did not refuse, but this fish was too heavy. Put it on a stick again, and it will be more difficult to pick it up.

"Xiaoxiao, how do you eat this?" Bernie curiously looked up and down the fish in Nick's hand.

Because the scales were not scraped off when they were put into the fire, the whole fish is now black. It looks like there is no appetite at all.

Zhong Xuyao stretched out his hand, intending to take off the scales.

A steely hand clasped her wrist. Zhong Xuyao's brows furrowed slightly, and he glared at the other party angrily, "What are you doing?" ”

Yi Xiu was a little helpless in his heart, because of the blood, Zhong Xuyao was still angry with him, but he was also a little annoyed, at the beginning, if he could ask the reason for the matter, it wouldn't be like this: "The flat water beast is still very hot, your hands are easy to burn, what to do, you tell me, I'll get it." ”

Zhong Xuyao pouted speechlessly, since she came here, she has almost become a waste, everything is taken care of by others, like before, she can also use her small strength to explain, now she doesn't have to do anything that can be done casually, she always feels too much.

"Xiaoxiao, you just listen to them. You just have to use your clever mind and direct them to do things. Bernie smiled and took Zhong Xuyao's hand.

"Besides, my coolies have a few days left." Nick

"Okay." Zhong Xuyao could only temporarily put aside his insistence: "You peel off the fish scales." Forehead...... It's the outermost shell. ”

Yi Xiu gently pinched a piece of fish scales, and with a pull of his hand, the pieces of fish scales were ripped off with the skin of the fish.

Zhong Xuyao took out the peeled hair fruit and smeared it on the fish's body. Add saltiness to the fish.

"Xiaoxiao, do you call this thing a fish?" Bernie asked, drooling.

"Well, in our place, the water is usually called fish, and this one is very similar to our silver pomfret." Zhong Xuyao

"Silver pomfret?" A question mark flashed in Bernie's eyes, "Then let's call it that too." ”

"You have your own way of choosing your name, you don't need to change it, otherwise, others won't understand." Zhong Xuyao suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, how could this Bernie feel like she was a brainless fan.

"It's called a flat-water fish. So that they understand. "Bernie

Zhong Xuyao smiled, and while he was talking, he had already wiped the fish before and after.

Because it has just been taken out of the fire, the heat on the fish quickly absorbs the juice of the hairy fruit.

Zhong Xuyao took out chopsticks and sandwiched a piece of fish meat, and as the meat separated, thin fish bones appeared in front of her eyes.

There are not many spines in the flatwater beast, and the fish meat that is two fingers wide is only three thin thorns.

She carefully pulled out a few fish bones, carefully confirmed that they were not there, and then slowly ate them.

Zhong Xuyao couldn't help but squint his eyes comfortably, and finally changed his taste.

Seeing Zhong Xuyao's expression of enjoyment, Bernie couldn't help it, "Boutbut, I want it too." ”

Bout's face showed a look of embarrassment, "I'll grab another one." ”

After all, this fish is Zhong Xuyao's thing, she didn't say it, and he was naturally embarrassed to take the initiative.

"Just eat, what else to catch. You don't think that I can eat such a big one. Zhong Xuyao was a little speechless. Why are they so out of sight now?

Seeing that Zhong Xuyao agreed, Bout tore a small piece off the fish, he followed Zhong Xuyao's example, pulled out the fish bones, and after careful confirmation, he put the fish meat into Bernie's mouth.

The soft flesh of the fish made Bernie's eyes light up. On weekdays, the meat they eat is too hard. As a result, they can only eat fruits and other things. However, in the winter, when there is no fruit, they can only eat meat. It is not uncommon for people to have stomach aches because they can't digest meat.

Now that they have this fish, they have something new to eat in the winter.

"Xiaoxiao, you are really our lucky star." The adoration in Bernie's eyes deepened.

"You have to be careful of fish bones, you will be in trouble if you get stuck." Zhong Xuyao reminded. After all, this is a primitive society, and it is really stuck by fish bones, but there is no hospital to take it out.

"Well, don't worry, Bout's eyes aren't for fun. No fish bone could escape his eyes. Bernie said with some pride.

"It's remarkable." Zhong Xuyao exclaimed.

Bout never stopped, removing the flesh, picking out the bones, and feeding them to Bernie.

Zhong Xuyao also smeared the juice of the hairy fruit on the fish meat from time to time. Good to add some flavor.

Until both of them are full, there are still two-thirds of the fish left.

In line with the principle of not wasting it, the four orcs present ate the rest of the fish and meat.

After tasting the first bite of fish, they understood why Zhong Xuyao and Bernie liked it so much. The taste of the Flatwater Beast is indeed good.
