Yan Liqiang took the bamboo basket, stood under the waterfall, tilted his head, and kept using the bamboo basket to hold the iron loach that washed down from the waterfall. The slippery iron loach that did not leave his hands was finally restrained when he encountered the bamboo basket more than three feet high, and under the bamboo basket, it was only a moment of hard work to hold more than ten iron loaches.

The tin loach kept jumping in the bamboo basket, and one by one could jump up to a foot high in the bamboo basket, but the bamboo basket in Yan Liqiang's hand was more than three feet high, no matter how those tin loaches jumped, they couldn't jump out.

It was at this time that Yan Liqiang was able to take a good look at the appearance of the iron loach that he couldn't grasp with his hands.

From the appearance, the iron loach is a bit similar to the ordinary loach, but the body is thinner, the body of the iron loach is yellow-brown, and there are thin black patterns on it, especially amazing, is the texture of the skin on the surface of the iron loach's body, like a layer of iron sheet, and a thin layer of transparent mucus, giving people the feeling of a layer of oiled metal.

Yan Liqiang had been walking around under the waterfall for more than two hours, and finally heard Li Hongtu's voice from the thatched hut not far away, "It's almost over, bring the tin loach and put it in the ......pot."

Hearing this sound, Yan Liqiang held a bamboo basket, slid from the boulder under the waterfall into the water, and then swam to the shore, without wearing clothes, and ran to Li Hongtu's thatched hut with the bamboo basket.

Li Hongtu lit a fire in his thatched house, and as soon as he entered the house, a warm smell came from the fire.

Next to the fire, there was a large stew pot, and the caliber of the stew pot was just the same size as the bamboo basket in Yan Liqiang's hand.

"Let me see, how much I have got!" Li Hongtu rubbed his hands and walked over, glanced at the bamboo basket in Yan Liqiang's hand, and immediately smiled all over his face, "Yes, yes, with two or three catties, it's enough to eat well, you put the bamboo basket upside down on this stew pot, be careful, these iron loaches are too slippery, don't let them jump out of the bamboo basket!"

"Okay!" Yan Liqiang spoke, and with a flexible flip of his hand, he buckled the bamboo basket upside down on the stew pot, and the iron loach in the bamboo basket immediately slid all into the stew pot.

"Don't move your hand yet, cover it ......for a while," Li Hongtu hurriedly reminded beside him.

"Master, what's in your stew pot, why do I smell wine!"

"What is in this stew pot is wine, first get these tin loaches drunk, and add wine, this tin loach stew is delicious, hahaha......"

After a few minutes, I felt that there was no movement in the stewpot, Yan Liqiang picked up the bamboo basket from the stewpot, and the iron loach that had just been poured into the stew pot had not moved in the stew pot one by one, Li Hongtu put the stew pot on the burning fire, and then took out a bag of seasonings that had been prepared long ago from a wooden cabinet next to him, put it into the stew pot, added water, and covered the stew pot, and then sighed with satisfaction.

"Alright, go get dressed!"

"Then I'll taste the taste of this tin loach at your place at noon today, Master!" Yan Liqiang said with a salivating face.

"Well, you have a credit ......"

Yan Liqiang laughed, ran out of the wooden house, and after two minutes, after getting dressed, he returned to the wooden house, sat on the edge of the fire, and stared at the stew pot on the shelf on the fire with Li Hongtu, "Master, did you often eat this tin loach before?"

"Nonsense, where can this thing be eaten casually!" Li Hongtu rolled his eyes and glared at Yan Liqiang, "Usually these iron loaches are in caves, and it is rare to see them in leisure, only in July every year, if you are lucky, you hear thunder, coupled with the surge of rain, they will swim out of the cave and be washed down, there are so many restaurants and restaurants in the imperial capital, you go and ask, how many restaurants and restaurants can eat this thing, by the way, what kung fu is the surname Ji teaching you these days......"

"Master Ji is teaching me the gecko wall swimming skill and the lightning thunder step, saying that if you want to learn archery, you must first master these two skills!" Yan Liqiang looked at Li Hongtu's face and replied cautiously.

"Well, that gecko surnamed Ji is good at swimming in the wall, and it will be useful in the future after learning, it seems that he has no secrets!" Li Hongtu nodded, and snorted coldly with his nose, "It's just that his sudden lightning thunder step, that is, take off his pants and fart, your current body footwork and light skills are already good, and when you master this skill I teach you in the future, your body and footwork light skills will naturally be able to go to a big level, and you will be self-contained without learning, why do you need to learn his sudden lightning and thunder steps......"

"What Master said is true!" Yan Liqiang smiled at Li Hongtu's meaning, just like coaxing a child, "Now I haven't learned Master's skills, just learn the lightning and thunder step first, anyway, the art is not pressing!"

"Well, let me ask you, has that surnamed Ji said bad things about me in front of you these days?"

"No, absolutely not, these days with Master Ji, he hasn't said anything bad about you, Master!" Yan Liqiang hurriedly shook his head, "It's just that once Master Ji said that he and Master you used to be friends!"

"I don't have a friend like him!" Li Hongtu suddenly looked angry again, but when he saw Yan Liqiang next to him, he suppressed his anger, took a deep breath, and then waved his hand impatiently, "Okay, don't mention this unappetizing thing!"

Looking at Li Hongtu's angry appearance, Yan Liqiang's heart moved, and Li Hongtu's thoughts appeared in his mind one by one like bubbles.

- Bastard, I treated you as a brother back then, but robbed my Xiaoying.

- Bastard

- Bastard

- Bastard

- Villain

- Villain

Feeling the series of resentments in Li Hongtu's head at the moment, Yan Liqiang felt sweat in his heart, so he had to laugh dryly twice, and quickly terminated the "connection".

"By the way, do you know why I want you to catch these iron loaches today?" Li Hongtu suddenly changed the subject.

"This, didn't Master say that this is a great supplement?"

"It's just one reason!" Li Hongtu shook his head, his gaze suddenly deepened, "But do you think Master let you spend a morning catching iron loaches, is it really just because Master wants to eat such a good meal?"

Yan Liqiang was slightly stunned, "Master means ......"

"Do you think you can use that spear under the waterfall to pierce the tin loach that is rushing down from the top of the waterfall?"

Yan Liqiang shook his head without thinking about it, " It is not difficult to pierce these iron loaches that fell from the waterfall, the difficult thing is to pierce, I just found that the skin of these iron loaches is hard and slippery, not to mention stabbing with the head of the spear, even if I use my hands to grab, the moment my fingers touch these iron loaches, these iron loaches naturally slide away from my fingertips, and when these iron loaches fell on my shaking spear before, they can actually jump away without injury, almost completely without force, if you want to pierce the iron loach with a spear, the difficulty, I feel like using a spear to pierce the small steel balls that fall from the waterfall with oil, almost impossible！”

"That's because you haven't been sure that the kung fu you taught you to practice at home, if you really learn that skill, even if you cover your eyes with a cloth and don't let you see with your eyes, you can also pierce the iron loach hidden in the waterfall under the waterfall, and effortlessly, when you can use that spear to pierce me a pot of iron loach under the waterfall, you will be considered a teacher, my ability, you will also learn!" Li Hongtu said solemnly to Yan Liqiang.

Yan Liqiang thought that Li Hongtu was joking with himself, but he soon found out that what Li Hongtu said was true......

In a few moments, the water in the saucepan where the fire was sleeping was boiling, and a strange fragrance wafted through the thatched hut......

After eating the tin loach with Li Hongtu, washing the dishes for Li Hongtu, brushing the pot, and when he was done, it was already noon, Yan Liqiang had just returned to his small courtyard, and he saw Xiao Lizi hurriedly running to his residence sweating profusely, "Captain Yan, Grandpa Liu has something to look for you......"

"What's the matter, so urgent!"

"There are a few officials in the imperial capital, saying that you killed someone in the city last night and want to detain you, and now you are ...... in the courtyard of Gonggong Liu."
