Chapter 58 Fishing Village Tour
"Why?"
"Because my young lady was not at home at the time." Wanyun saw that he was curious about what happened at that time, so he kindly answered for him.
Sikong Ming looked at Youran in confusion, only to see her sitting there eating apples with a faint smile.
"My young lady has been frail and sick since she was a child, and she was fortunate to be treated by the Void Dao Chief, and the young lady was recuperating in Lingyun Peak at that time, so the young lady was not at home when the accident happened." Wanxue took Wanyun's words and said.
Sikong Mingyi was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously glanced at it leisurely. It turns out that she used to be a sick lady, huh? Looking at her lively appearance now, I guess the illness should be cured, right?
Sikong Mingyi didn't ask how her condition was? I'm afraid she'll be sad when she mentions it. He just nodded in response to the two girls who gave him the answer, and lowered his head with a faint smile, ready to pick up the book and read it for a while.
Before he could read two lines from the book, half a large mango with a sharpened knife suddenly appeared in front of him. Sikong Mingyi raised his head in astonishment, and met his eyes with a leisurely smile.
"This is for you! I sharpened the flower knife, and I don't have to worry about it being embarrassed with the easy-to-eat one. Leisurely holding the half of the mango, he said to him with a smile on his face.
Sikong Mingyi looked at her curved clear and bright eyes, hooked his lips slightly, reached out to take the mango, and whispered, "Thank you."
smiled leisurely, then lowered his head and cut the other half of the mango into flower knives, and divided it into two petals for Evening Cloud and Evening Snow. As for the breeze outside the carriage, she picked a big dragon fruit and handed it to him, so that he could eat it when he was thirsty.
After Sikong Mingyi saw that she had divided the fruit for them, he didn't go to get another mango, but held the middle part of the mango that had just been divided and ate it.
He was puzzled for a moment, he had also eaten mangoes, whether she gave them to him or he bought them himself; The middle part of all kinds of mangoes is pitted, and there is not much pulp, so why not cut the new one and eat it instead?
"Sister Youran, how do you eat a place with a core? If you don't want to cut a new one, give you and me this, and we'll eat it separately. He automatically thought that he was too lazy to cut a new one, so he handed her the piece in his hand and said.
"Huh? No need to ......" took a small bite of the mango core, and blocked the hand he handed over, "Hehe, I actually like to nibble on this part, I think this is the best place to eat the whole mango." β
"Really?" Sikong Mingyi felt funny after hearing it, I really couldn't understand if the way of thinking in her mind was different from theirs?
"Uh-huh......" Leisurely gnawed on the mango core, and didn't have time to reply to him, so he could only nod in response.
The way to the seaside fishing village was spent in the carriage drinking tea, chatting, and eating fruits.
"Young master, it's here." The carriage stopped, and the sound of the breeze came from outside the carriage.
Wanyun opened the car door and first got out of the carriage with Wanxue, followed by Sikong Mingyi, who was leisurely lined up to get off the car.
They were at the entrance of the village at this time, and the houses in this small village were a little different from those in other villages, each family was next to each other, and the rows were very regular. In front of each house, fishing nets are dried, and some sun-dried marine fish are dried.
"Uncle, may I ask, we want to buy some sea fish, where can we buy them?" Leisurely and the group walked into the fishing village, and met a gray-haired uncle on the street, Qingfeng stepped forward to inquire.
"You want to buy fish?" The uncle's eyes widened, and he looked at them with a strange expression.
"yes. Where can I buy it? Qingfeng nodded and said.
"Heyβyou better go back, there's no fish to sell here!" The uncle sighed, waved his hand at them, and said.
"Can't buy fish? Why? "Youran is very curious, this is a fishing village, close to the sea, how can there be no fish for sale?
"You're from a foreign country, aren't you? Haven't you heard about the recent events in our village? Seeing their curious looks, the uncle asked suspiciously.
"Did something happen?" Leisurely rhetorical question.
The uncle looked at them and the carriage parked not far behind them, didn't speak for a while, thought for a moment and said, "It seems that you are also coming here in a hurry, if you don't dislike it, go to the little old man's house to sit first?" I'll tell you what's going on here. β
Youran and Sikong Mingyi glanced at each other after hearing this, and then nodded towards the uncle.
Said leisurely: "Then I will bother the uncle to lead the way."
The uncle waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, and turned around and walked towards a house not far away. They followed him and looked around to find that no one in this fishing village had gone out to fish.
It's almost noon, but shouldn't there be no fish after the morning, right? Anyway, I didn't see fresh sea fish, but all I saw was dried fish that had been dried for many days.
"Old woman, be generous, come out quickly, there are guests at home!" As soon as the uncle entered the house, he yelled into the house.
"Who's coming?" Several people came out of the house, led by an elderly woman with a headscarf.
She was followed by two men and two women, who should be two young couples. Several people came out of the house after hearing the uncle's shouting, and they were all slightly stunned when they saw Youran and the others.
"Don't be stunned, old woman, go boil some water and make a pot of tea; The eldest daughter-in-law, the second daughter-in-law, you go get some food, and you can get some good food later. The uncle instructed the stunned people.
"Ah...... Yes, yes, I'll go. The old woman immediately came to her senses and hurriedly agreed.
And the two young daughters-in-law also nodded in response, and then went into the house and took two bamboo baskets and went out, probably to get vegetables!
"A few people in the house, please, the humble house is simple, don't mind a few people!" The uncle saw that his wife and daughter-in-law were already busy, so he turned around and invited a few of them into the house.
"Haven't asked your uncle's surname yet?" After Sikong Mingyi entered the room and sat down, he asked with a gentle smile on his face.
"The little old man's name is Fu Gui, and everyone in this village calls me Daddy Fu, and a few distinguished guests also call me that." Father Fu sat down opposite them and said happily.
Then he turned his head and pointed to the two young people beside him and introduced them to them: "These are my two sons, the eldest son Fu Yifang and the second son Fu Yijie, you can just call Dafang Xiaojie."
Sikong Mingyi nodded and introduced: "In the next compound surname Sikong, the name Mingyi; And this is Miss Qin. β
She smiled at them and nodded, seeing that everyone knew each other, she asked the question in her heart: "May I ask what Daddy Fu just said?"
"Hey! This is going to be half a month ago......" Father Fu sighed and slowly told them what had happened.
To put it simply, one day when the fishing village went out to sea to fish, a particularly large eight-clawed monster came up; When the people in the village were curious about what it was, a wealthy merchant who passed by happened to see it and thought it was a good thing, so he was ready to pay for it. But before he could pay, his four-year-old son, who came with him, touched the eight-clawed monster out of curiosity, but he didn't expect to be caught by the monster's claws all of a sudden, and immediately donated blood.
This frightened the rich merchant, and he immediately had the family kill the monster and untie his son's finger. But the child's wound was deep and bleeding, and it took a long time for Lang Zhong to stop the bleeding, but this is nothing, the most serious thing is that the child's finger may not be usable in the future after being diagnosed, which means that the finger is useless.
The wealthy businessman was angry for a while, so he reported to the government. After the government intervened, they sentenced the person who caught the monster to pay compensation to the rich merchant, after all, if they hadn't caught it from the sea, the rich merchant's son's finger would not have been abolished.
Originally, I thought they would be fine after the compensation, but since then, rumors have begun to spread around the neighborhood that the fishing village has angered the sea god because of too much fishing, so monsters have been sent to warn them.
"Originally, we didn't believe such rumors, but every time we went to sea to fish, we caught a lot of big and small eight-clawed monsters! What's even more frightening is that some people have also captured a kind of soft and sucking multi-legged monster...... "Daddy Fu sighed and said.
"Yes, yes, there's a small, black-water monster; We were afraid that the black water would be poisonous, and we would not even bring it back, so we threw it back into the sea. Xiaojie continued with Daddy's words.
Father Fu nodded and continued: "This back and forth fight against unknown monsters makes us have to believe that rumor. We must have offended the god of the sea, so we can't catch fish! After that, we never went to sea to fish again. β
Sikong Mingyi's brows furrowed slightly after hearing this, obviously he was also worried about that monster. And after listening to it leisurely, it was a different expression, although she didn't show any expression on the surface now, but her heart was extremely excited.
I saw that her eyes were shining brightly, and she asked with a hint of urgency: "Daddy Fu, the eight-clawed monster you said has a round shell?" And when crawling, it still crawls horizontally? Are there two particularly large clamps? β
Leisurely raised his two hands, compared a [Y(^_^)Y] action, and made a clipping between the index finger and middle finger when asking, which looked very cute!
Sikong Mingyi looked at her funny, and found that she was extremely leisurely and lively at this time. A pair of big shining eyes, shining with bright light, made her whole person full of vitality.
"Yes, yes, how did Miss Qin know?" Daddy Fu nodded in response, and at the same time wondered how she knew?
After hearing this, he grinned and replied, "Because I've seen it, the name of the eight-clawed monster you talked about is called a crab, and it can also be said to be a sea crab!" Of course, there are also river crabs, which are crustaceans and are edible. β
"Really? What is that crustacean? Except for Youran, everyone looked at Youran curiously, thinking the same as Daddy Fu's question.
"Well, the most common crustaceans are the shrimp we eat; You think that since you can eat shrimp, let alone crabs! "Leisurely try to say it so that they can understand.
After a pause, he swallowed his saliva and said, "And the crab is delicious!" β
"Really?" Sikong Mingyi, who was sitting next to her, heard her say this, and asked with both belief and uncertainty.
"Of course! Why don't I make it for you at noon? Leisurely nodded affirmatively, and then asked Daddy Fu: "Daddy, do you still have crabs here?" Is it an octal monster? β
"Yes, yes! I really had nothing to do this morning, so I went to the sea and fished out a net, and I happened to catch a few. Said generously.
Standing up with a leisurely smile, "Let's go, take me to see!" β
"Good ......"
