259 Killing fish

"Run!"

Zhao Xinghua shouted at Ding Baoli, who was standing not far away.

Because this pile of aquatic feed covered with waterproof canvas is more than two meters high and more than ten meters long, what happened on the riverside side cannot be seen from the location where Ding Baoli is located.

"Boss, have they found out?"

Ding Baoli was still righteous, and he didn't turn around and run away immediately, but took two steps forward, answered Zhao Xinghua's left arm that was running on tiptoe, and helped him to run towards the center of the street together.

After running out of another twenty or thirty meters, Zhao Xinghua glanced back in a panic, and found that the big fish that came ashore didn't seem to have paid attention to his side, and he should have retreated into the river with one blow.

"Bang!" With a bang, the pile of fish feed suddenly seemed to be hit by a huge force of something, and the bags containing the feed flew out in all directions, and some woven bags were cracked and burst open on the spot, and the smelly fish bait instantly filled the air above the dock and fell everywhere.

The two of them looked through the collapsed pile, there was no longer only one mandarin fish, but more than a dozen large and small lying on their stomachs, because the dust in the air there was the largest density, Zhao Xinghua couldn't see whether the subordinates of King Chu Nan were still alive, but the probability of being able to escape from the fish mouth with all their beards was almost impossible.

The members of the transport team, who were waiting for the results of the mission, were also stunned by this scene, and everyone stood up and looked at the river.

In the area with the largest concentration of fish feed dust, large fish several meters long are constantly slapping on their sides on the dock, and they do not rush back into the water after jumping to the shore, but keep devouring bags of synthetic feed with their mouths open, like hungry hellish hungry ghosts.

Everyone stared at the scene in front of them, wondering why the fish had come to shore, and it was still in broad daylight.

"Leave those big fish behind, add 10% of the work to each team, and leave a third of the fish meat as a reward!"

Eventually, the clerk in charge of the assignment stood on the wooden table in front of the warehouse door and shouted excitedly, breaking the temporary silence here.

"Good~!"

The crowd not far away let out cheers, now meat food is almost impossible to appear in the meals of the low-level laborers in these sunken lake bases, post-apocalyptic creatures have more or less evolved ability, and it is very difficult to catch them without artificial breeding. Human beings are omnivores, many nutrients in the body need to be supplemented by digesting meat food, and the human body can only synthesize 12 kinds of 20 amino acids in normal circumstances, and the rest need to be supplemented by nutrients in food.

Of course, it is possible to survive without eating meat for a long time, but relatively speaking, there will be a lot of functional decline, especially in terms of physical fitness. As an aside, the Central Plains people and the nomads outside the Guanwai were at a disadvantage for a long time in the battle, and it was also the result of a physical competition between the nomads and the cultivators. As a group of people who have been engaged in manual labor for a long time, the craving for meat is also an urgent need that comes from physiological instinct.

It is not the first time they have encountered a situation of a large fish coming ashore, and under normal circumstances, only occasionally one or two will jump to the shore, and each time except for the first few unlucky people who are devoured, the casualties caused are not serious. In the case of a large number of people, their record of killing big fish is almost always the norm.

Today's freshwater fish are not able to adapt to being out of the water for too long, and still need to rely on gills for breathing, and they have no limbs, so they can only writhe around on land with the power of their bodies, and as long as they hold on for a while, they will be slaughtered. There are now as many as two hundred people gathered here, and it should not be a problem to defeat them.

Everyone present shouted and rushed towards the dock stacks with all kinds of weapons in their hands.

Pickaxes, sickles, flat poles, and kitchen knives are frantically beckoning to the mandarin fish covered with prismatic scales in people's hands, and more than a dozen big fish are still only devouring bags of feed at first, and then they are surrounded by a group of humans who are like enchanted for a while, and they are covered with scaly wounds all over their bodies, and some big fish try to escape back into the Han River behind them, and they are covered by the canvas pulled by the humans around them.

The human side also paid a great price for casualties, although these mandarin fish are not as perverted and huge as the yellow eels encountered by Zhao Xinghua and Ding Baoli, but each one weighs three or four hundred catties, full of barb-like sharp teeth, and those who are bitten are cut off on the spot, and some are crushed to death on the spot and knocked off by the mandarin fish after bouncing and pressing under their bodies.

The most terrifying thing is the fin spines on the back of the mandarin fish. Before the apocalypse, there are 12 dorsal fin spines, 3 anal fin spines and 2 pelvic fin spines on the back of the mandarin fish, all of which are distributed with venom glands. The venom glands in the bodies of these evolved mandarin fish have also been strengthened, and many of them have been cut by the spikes on the back and abdomen of the big fish, and immediately fall to the ground and curl up and convulse, letting out a loud wail......

Zhao Xinghua and Ding Baoli did not join the battle circle, but just surrounded the periphery and shouted care, and there were many people like them who cheated and played tricks, so they were not very noticeable.

Of course, each captain of the squad rushed to the front and played a decisive role as the main vanguard of the battle. Zhang Guangcheng's hammer had already shattered the skulls of the two big fish, and the other squad leaders also worked together to kill several other mandarin fish, and the battle only lasted for ten minutes. Humans quickly and overwhelmingly dealt with the big fish that washed ashore, except for the first few that jumped back into the river in the confusion, leaving eight huge mandarin fish carcasses on the dock that were still shaking without failing nerves.

In the face of such an achievement, all the human beings, including Zhao Xinghua, cheered with joy, and they could finally feast on delicious fish and meat.

Zhang Zhihe's "Peach Blossom Flowing Water Mandarin Fish Fat" in the Tang Dynasty, as well as the Qing Dynasty poet Wu Wen's "Ten Thousand Peach Blossom Half-foot Fish" are all describing the delicacy of mandarin fish, which is the fourth month of the lunar calendar, which is also the golden period for mandarin fish growth, and the meat quality and taste are the best time of the year.

Squad leader Zhang Guangcheng wiped his sweat while high-fiveing each other with several subordinates, and when he saw that the two were still standing there and did not step forward, he shouted at the two of them very dissatisfied:

"Don't fucking stand stupidly, push a cart over, and you two will be served after someone else has eaten enough, and you'll be lazy and slippery on the first day, what a fucking bastard!"

Zhao Xinghua didn't care, and pulled Ding Baoli to walk in the direction of the convoy. Just now, he was standing on the periphery of the crowd and observing the situation in the field all the time, and he saw that one of the five people who had stolen the aquatic feed was not killed by the big fish, but was standing outside the crowd and had been whispering to an officer what was going on.

This time, there was a platoon of guards in charge of security who came out with the convoy, led by a young lieutenant officer, and the guy who escaped from the fish mouth whispered to this officer. In the battle with the big fish just now, it was also the lieutenant officer who prevented the soldiers of the guard platoon from joining the battle, and only watched from the sidelines with guns, otherwise a few mandarin fish would not have caused more than thirty casualties.

When Zhao Xinghua and Ding Baoli pushed a trolley back to the dock, several big fish on the field had been chopped into several large pieces by knives and axes.

No one noticed that a small dry canal at the edge of the pier was already filled with blood from the bodies of large fish, and together with the aquatic compound feed spilled on the ground, it was flowing into the raging Han River below, and an even greater crisis was coming.
