Chapter 6 Delicacies of the Sea
Hai Lihong said in one breath, at this time the fishing net over there has gone down to the sea, when the fishing net went down to the sea, Hai Liqing hid in the cabin, did not dare to show his face, I have been shocked by this fishing method at this time, all say that the sea is deep, there is no bottom, but the fishing net on the boat, can actually drag the fish under the water, so I asked the apprentices what was going on, a squinted apprentice said: "You don't know, our ship is still in the Bohai Sea, the sea water here is dozens of zhang deep, Our ropes are hundreds of feet long, so we can catch fish in the sea. ”
The big boat walked for a while, the boat is powered by sails, no need to shake the oars, so except for Hai Li Hei at the helm, everyone else is on the deck, Hai Li Hong shouted to get up the net and raise the net gold ten thousand taels, and then he and a few little cubs pulled up the fishing net, almost the reins of the child's arm, were pulled up little by little, looking at their very hard look, we also followed to help, the net was indeed very heavy, we finally pulled it up, when we took off the boat, a full net of things, looking at the surging inside, You can know that there must be a lot of good things.
After pulling it up, Hai Li Hong loosened the rope and poured the contents on the deck, and I was stunned when I saw it, the contents were too rich. Fish, shells, crabs that are almost the size of a small bowl, big snails with fists, and things like pentagrams, jumping prawns, are dazzling.
I picked up a fist-sized snail and said, "Look at this snail." ”
Hai Lihong smiled and said, "Brother Yang, it's not called a snail, it's a conch." "Then while pulling and telling us about the things caught in this net, we understood as soon as we introduced it, this net is really amazing, there are conch, scallops, razor clams, crabs, prawns, shrimp steaks, sea cucumbers, real sea bream, black stone perch these delicious, and at the same time starfish, sea urchins these can not be eaten, one of the little cubs took the real sea bream and black stone perch, found a board, and then bled the live real sea bream on both sides, this fish is different from the fish in our usual water, the scales are very small, the little cub cut off the skin of the fish with a knife, Then the fish is sliced down the bones and cut into thin skins one by one.
At this time, another little cub took out soy sauce and mustard, mixed it in a small bowl, and then picked up a piece of sashimi with chopsticks, dipped it, and then gave Haili Hong, Haili Red to eat in his mouth, squinting his eyes, as if tasting delicious, I asked a little puzzled: "This fish is not cooked yet, is it delicious?" ”
Hai Lihong said: "This raw food is extremely delicious, we fish at sea, we have been eating like this for a long time, these have been learned by the Japanese, and have become their things, what is it called sashimi, apprentice, you go and get some soy sauce mustard for these brothers, and give a few brothers a taste." ”
The little cub nodded, and then got us a little soy sauce and wasabi, let me taste the sashimi, I held the chopsticks, everyone looked at me, I only took a piece of sashimi, dipped in some wasabi and soy sauce, eating this I thought to myself, it must be fishy and difficult to eat, but when I put the fish fillet in my mouth and chewed, I was immediately attracted, it was full of fresh fragrance, the fish fillet was a little sweet, sweet with spicy, and then released a fragrance, never fresh fragrance, let me feel that the fillet is alive in the mouth.
I closed my eyes and couldn't believe it was the taste of sashimi, and everyone looked at me and asked me if it was delicious, and I quickly said it was delicious. Everyone quickly ate as soon as they heard it, and they all ate it with a mouthful of fragrant, at this time, Hai Lihong washed those shells and crabs and the like with seawater, and set up a big pot on a pot table, and put all the things into the pot, without adding oil and salt, and boiled directly on the fire below, and said to us while cooking, these things, no need to add anything, so that when you cook with water, it tastes the most delicious.
At that time, the traffic was not good, and we had never seen these seafood at all, at most there were small salted fish for sale. The sea red fire is very strong, the water in the pot slowly boils, the things in it also change from cyan to red, the seafood is tempting, it is tempting in color, very bright, at this time the fresh fragrance floated up on the boat, the sea red took a big basin, directly gave us a basin, and taught us how to eat these things.
We brought it to the house, the little fox Mao Mao was already greedy, five of us, plus a fox, a beautiful meal of seafood, has been eating a round belly, this seafood and river fresh, has a different taste. After we ate it, we sat on the deck of the boat, blowing the sea breeze, after these few days of exercise, coupled with the calm waves, our seasickness feeling became lighter and lighter. On the deck, looking at the sea and sky, plus the full food just now, I feel very comfortable.
The boat went for another day, this vast sea, we could not see the land, we could not determine the direction at all, but the sea red told us that soon out of the Bohai Sea, in the afternoon, the sky was overcast, the whole sea became foggy, the big boat dragged the trawl forward, then suddenly the boat struck, a few of us almost shook down, a little cub shouted: "Oh no, we hit the stone." ”
After finishing speaking, Hai Lihong hurriedly asked people to close the net, the net was a little heavy, and we all helped pull the net, and it took a lot of effort to pull it up. Hai Lihong untied the net pocket and poured out a large pile of stones, which were about the size of a human head, and were covered with shells. Then I saw a round thing in the stone, and there were many black threads on it, and I was stunned, and then one of the little cubs touched the round thing, and then screamed, as if very frightened.
I hurriedly looked over, this look over, I also took a breath of cool air at that time, only to see that the little cub was bitten by a round thing, he held the bitten hand with one hand, and then pumped outward, directly brought out the round thing, this brought out the screams of Mao Qinglian and Luo Xihan in fright, the round thing was a human head, I saw that the head was covered with long hair, and the face was blistered and only white, and the facial features could be seen, but the facial features seemed to have been eaten by fish and shrimp, which was very scary.
The little cub screamed in fright, shook his head vigorously, and threw the man's head into the water, and then Hai Lihong said, "It's broken, it's broken, it's troublesome, our ship is going to be in trouble." ”
I said, "What's going on?" What trouble can we have? ”
Hai Lihong said: "Those of us who beg for a living at sea have a rule, that is, when fishing, we must take human bones to the shore and then bury them, because once people reach the bottom of the sea, they cannot be avenged, and they can only be accompanied by fish and shrimp at the bottom of the sea, and they will never see the light of day." So we fished up the human bones because you had a good fate, but he threw the human bones into the sea again, we first met the sea woman, and now we have offended the unjust soul in the sea, we can't go any more today, hurry up and drop anchor, wait for tomorrow to see the situation before leaving. ”
We looked at Hai Lihong's appearance, not like a joke, didn't say anything, we didn't see Hai Liqing in the past two days, this guy didn't kill me, he was very weak-hearted, he didn't dare to meet me at all, after dinner, we sat on the deck and watched the stars, talking about some interesting things, Zhong Dabiao and Tianning went back to the cabin to sleep, and the rest was just the three of us, we watched the stars at sea, the whole sky was like a cover, the moon in the sky rose and was reflected in the sea, so that there were stars in all directions.
At this time, the sea breeze was strong, the boat began to shake, and there was mist in the distance, I said to Mao Qinglian and Luo Xihan: "The wind is blowing on the sea, let's go back to the cabin?" ”
As soon as I finished speaking, I heard a faint cry in the blowing sea breeze, and I was stunned for a moment, and asked them, "Did you hear the cry?" ”
Before my words could be heard, I heard someone crying in a complaining voice, saying, "You are so cruel, you killed me and threw my body into the sea, and if you fished out my head today, why did you throw me into the sea?" Today I will make none of you live. ”
