Chapter 9: Kacuri
"Good young master. After saying that, he trotted to get the dishes and chopsticks.
The stone in Tang Jing's heart was finally put down a little, he was willing to take a look, just afraid that he would yell directly, the monster will return my young master, otherwise I will fight with you.
He didn't pretend to be stupid, but directly told himself that he didn't know what to do, but he would be skeptical and watching.
Tang Jing was most afraid that Tang Yuan would smile and say that he was a rice ball, and at that time he would sleep and dare not close his eyes, for fear that he would suddenly come with a kitchen knife...... At that time, whether to kill people or let him go, both choices are not what he wants.
You can't kill people and kill people, and you can't do it.
Let him go, I don't know how much trouble it will bring in the future.
Now he is willing to look at it, and it is best to choose to change and accept nature.
It's not that Tang Jing's words are useful, but Tang Yuan feels hopeless about his previous life, and now that there is an opportunity to change, he also wants to try, that's all.
Tang Jing took the pottery bowl handed by Tang Yuan, scooped up a few pieces of tempting fish meat, filled it with white soup, and handed it to Tang Yuan.
Tang Yuan took a deep breath of the aroma of the fish soup, and when he took a sip of the white soup, tears flowed uncontrollably, which was better than any soup he had ever drunk.
Fresh, incomparably fresh, only a little very slight fishy smell, the fishy smell does not destroy the taste of the fish soup but retains the unique taste of this fish, under the background of wild perilla and mushrooms, the flavor is even more three!
Tang Jing also packed a bowl of soup and was just about to drink it, when a hand stretched out next to him, and Tang Jing habitually handed it over.
A few seconds later, his sister was wrong! Tang Yuan took the soup for less than a minute.
Turning his head, an old man in a shabby blue robe, medium build, messy hair, haggard face and stubble, was drinking a bowl of fish soup.
Seeing Tang Jing looking at him, the old man grinned at Tang Jing.
When did this product get in, it was so natural, and there was no sense of disobedience.
The dumplings over there are also inexplicable, when there are many people, when they come.
“...... Tang Yuan brought me another bowl. ”
"Okay young master. Tang Yuan went to get the bowl while drinking.
The old man, taking a sip of the soup, closed his eyes, and looked intoxicated. After opening his eyes, he pinched a relatively large fish bone, a piece of white and tender fish meat was drawn into his mouth, chewed it lightly a few times, moved his throat and the fish went down to his stomach, and he spit out a mouthful of fish fragrance with satisfaction, "The fish soup is delicious, the fish meat is also smooth and tender, and the food can be eaten out of the season, and the old man is the first time to meet it, which is amazing, little brother." ”
Tang Jing took the bowl handed over by the rice balls, filled a full bowl, Meimei drank a few sips, and she was also satisfied, hearing the old man's words, she smiled slightly, "The seasoning is limited, just grind the coarse salt, grind it into powder, evenly spread it on the fish, and then puree the ginger and mix it with water, evenly coat the fish body, and marinate for twenty minutes to remove the fish." Fresh spring shiso and mushrooms are added to the soup, which adds flavor to the soup and meat. The material is simple, but it is better to be authentic. ”
"Awesome little brother, old man, I have never drunk such a delicious fish soup, can I have another bowl?" the old man said with sincerity on his face, he really had never drunk such a delicious soup, and Hengduan Xizhou has never been particular about eating.
"Of course you can, there are a lot of them, and the fish is big enough for a few people to eat, so you can eat and drink as much as you like. ”
Ten minutes later, on the grass in front of the thatched hut, three male pregnant women were lying on the ground, occasionally burping, caressing their round bellies.
"Thank you, little brother. Luck is really good, I stayed in the Red Refining Forest for more than a year, Ru Mao drank blood, and I was able to drink such a delicious fish soup when I first came out, and my life was really full of surprises. The old man sighed.
Tang Yuan was taken aback, he had stayed in the Red Refining Forest where demonic beasts were rampant for more than a year, even the outermost circle was the territory of first- to third-order demonic beasts, and a person could not survive without some strength. The further you go into the Red Refining Forest, the more dangerous it becomes, I heard that there are eighth-order demonic beasts entrenched in the most core area, eighth-order demonic beasts! That is the existence that the Dharma Emperor has to avoid. Seeing the robe on the old man's body, he knew in his heart that the sign of the cyan robe magician, as long as he didn't go to the core area, there was no problem in surviving.
"My brother is serious, it's just a few mouthfuls of fish soup, and it's not a valuable thing, it's fate when you meet it. ”
"Little brother is right, my name is Kakuri, and I am a teacher in the Academy of Magic, what do you call the little brother?"
"My name is Tang Jing, and this is my housekeeper Tang Yuan. We wandered around because of something, and it didn't take long for us to get here. ”
"Little brother is from Middle-earth?" Kacuri asked, somewhat uncertain.
"Yes, the ancestral land is in Middle-earth, because of some things, the ancestor wandered for hundreds of years before he arrived in your continent. ”
"The little brother has great perseverance in his ancestors! The mysterious Middle-earth Divine Prefecture has never been anywhere, which is a big regret for me. Kakuri said with a look of yearning.
"It's not bad to traverse Xizhou, my brother can crisscross in the Red Refining Forest, and killing demonic beasts and collecting elixirs is also a happy life. ”
"Also, there will always be some regrets in life. Kacuri was a little embarrassed, and it seemed that he had not been to Middle-earth, which was a big regret for him.
The more the two talked, the more they fell in love, and the more they talked, the more they became involved.
Tang Yuan went to Rem City again to buy the quilts and others. Also according to Tang Jing's request, let the blacksmith make a few fish hooks out of fine iron. The blacksmith scratched his ears and cheeks for a long time, if it weren't for the blacksmith's excellent spirit, he would have blasted out the rice balls, the difficulty coefficient was high, and he couldn't make money, not for the reputation of the store, who would have eaten him? I went to the magic store to buy a few 4-meter-long silks, which were extremely strong, and it was said that hundreds of catties of boulders could be lifted. I also bought a piece of steel mesh 60 cm long and 30 cm wide.
Tang Jing saw that Tang Yuan bought the hook and fishing line, and decided to go fishing, but dinner had not yet landed, so she wanted to ask Tang Yuan to buy some food and come back, but the taste of those foods in her memory really made Tang Jing not interested.
The so-called direction of development is so magical, many things in this world are much more developed than the earth, but some things are also too far behind, and the direction of follow-up is related to people's habits.
The simplest comparison, some countries in the West are stronger than the East, but the gap in food is even greater, the global network is so developed, so many years later, Westerners still nibble on bread, eat hot dogs, boil potatoes, and bake steaks...... It is so small compared to the ever-changing and vast food culture of the East. Is it because Westerners are not smart? Of course, it's not just because of habit, as long as they don't want to change Tang Jing dare to be sure, maybe they will still be like that in a hundred or thousand years.
In this world, the pursuit of personal force is the theme, and people are satisfied with the status quo in terms of things outside the body and enjoyment, and there is no intention to deepen the discussion. This is the interesting thing about the direction of evolution, only when many people study it, improve it from generation to generation, and experience the baptism of time and precipitate a culture will it slowly reach its peak.
Tang Jing shook his head and shook off the sudden question in his head, and asked the old brother who was also outside the wandering objects beside him, "Brother, I'm going to go fishing, if you have something, just deal with it." ”
The tangled expression on his face flashed, and finally added: "If you have time to play more, I will invite my brother to drink fish soup." ”
Kacuri came back to his senses, just saw Tang Jing's expression change, and smiled freely: "I just solved a big matter, there's nothing wrong with relaxing." ”
Kacuri looked at the sparkling river, "Fishing, it seems to be fun, let me try it too?"
Tang Jing hesitated, but nodded in response.
Skillfully tie the fish hook with silk, the silk is about the same thickness as the No. 4 ordinary fishing line, this thickness Tang Jing does not dare to catch with his hands, if he encounters a monster fish, his hands will be pulled off.
"Tang Yuan, is there a bamboo forest nearby, I need two bamboos about three meters long, the kind that is about the size of two fingers, and has good toughness. ”
Kacuri heard Tang Jing's words, and directly took out two of them from the space ring that met Tang Jing's requirements, "Little brother, how about taking a look at these two?"
The bamboo is emerald green, delicate, there are no branches and leaves, it is very magical, I tried it with my hand in my hand, and the degree of solidity and toughness is very unscientific. Tang Jing smiled dumbly, there are many things here that cannot be understood with the knowledge of the earth, and he is actually struggling with whether it is scientific or not.
"Bamboo like my brother, it's not suitable for fishing, it's too wasteful. Tang Jing said a little entangled, feeling that it was a waste at the same time, but also wanting to use it, it must be very cool to use.
Not only is it wasteful, it is simply extremely extravagant. If such a bamboo is sold, it is enough for Tang Jing and Tangyuan to eat ordinary fish for ten years.
Kacuri glanced at Tang Jing, "You don't plan to cut it, and you don't plan to cut it, what's the waste, just loosen the thread when you're done." ”
Tang Jing's old face flushed, he was really stupid, he was still trapped in the logical thinking of the earth, a bamboo on the earth was made into a fishing rod, then it may be a fishing rod for a lifetime, a bamboo is just no one will be missing, few people will make it into a fishing rod and then use it to do other things.
Tang Jing quickly tied the silk, hung up the white worms that Tang Yuan gave, and threw them into the river, he didn't make a fish float, with his current perception and eyesight, he didn't need it, and he didn't have the conditions.
Hand the fishing rod to Kakuri next to him, "Brother play first, I'll deal with that." ”
Kacuri took the fishing rod, after all, since he was sensible, he saw that everyone used magic to fish, and suddenly changed his hand to fish, which felt very fresh.
At this moment, the tip of the fishing rod in Kacuri's hand jerked up and down.
"Brother, lift the rod, you can lift it up or left and right, but don't let the fish straighten the line and rod. Tang Jing hurriedly reminded him.
Although Tang Jing is a rookie fisherman, he also understands one thing, there can be no tug-of-war, and a tug-of-war tangent basically can't run.
Kacuri threw it up directly, and a big fish with white light about seven catties flew out of the water, kept flicking its tail in the air, and then fell to the grass behind him.
Kakuri was shocked, his face was full of surprise, it seemed to be very interesting, he didn't need more trouble-free magic, but he fished by hand, Middle-earth is Middle-earth is so mysterious, obviously a magic, can catch dozens or hundreds of fish, but he has to fish by hand.
Tang Jing froze directly, how could anyone fish like this, he didn't take the fish with him, he just threw it back with brute force, if he was on the earth, who would dare to play like this if there was no mine at home. Seven catties of fish, so it is strange that the rod does not explode, and the fishing line can't hurt. Kakuri relied entirely on brute force, rod quality, line quality, and no technique.
Seeing that Kakuri's face was full of excitement, Tang Jing swallowed back the contempt in his mouth, it was better not to disturb the interest of others.
Kacuri always felt that fishing was not so simple, and couldn't help asking, "Is there anything special about the little brother?"
