Chapter 20: How Long Is It Going to Take?
"Whoa!"
With a splash of water splashing high, Xia Sheng's head suddenly emerged from the lake, he grabbed a big fish about three inches long with one hand, put it on the wooden boat with the other hand, twisted his waist slightly, and swept back to the boat, picked up a towel and wiped his wet hair.
The boat was borrowed from nearby fishermen, and towels and clean clothes were prepared before going out.
As for this huge fish, weighing thirty catties, it was captured by Xia Sheng with his bare hands underwater before!
I have been accompanying Ye Xiao'e to the lake for a while, and the legendary lake god has not been seen, but everyone has been hungry, although Xia Hong has prepared dry food for everyone beforehand, but since he has come to this Giethoorn Lake, it is a pity not to taste the most prestigious silver carp.
It's a pity that no one present knows the art of fishing, so Xia Sheng simply jumped off the water, and with brute force, he really caught a fish!
This amazing move naturally caused Ye Xiao'e's eyes to shine, and she couldn't help but praise: "Brother Ah Sheng is really good!"
Xia Sheng smiled, and before he could answer, the water on the side muttered softly: "Isn't it just catching a fish, what's the big deal......
Hearing this, the rammer in charge of rowing immediately explained in a daze: "Miss Shui'er, don't underestimate Xia Gongzi's hand, look at this big fish, it must weigh at least thirty pounds, maybe you don't feel anything on the shore, but underwater, the strength of this big fish must be very terrifying, with a flick of the tail, no matter how firmly you catch, you will be freed!"
"And we people are more resistant underwater, and the visibility is also very low, far less light than the fish, and it is not easy to catch it by surprise!"
Shui Er glared at Tam Dali angrily, and said: "How can it be as difficult as you say, if you really want to fish, Dali, you will directly slash into the lake with a knife, and no matter how big the fish is, it will be killed by the fish, and when the time comes, it will float into the water, and we will not take it?"
Tam Dali finally felt that he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly lowered his head with a wry smile, rowed the boat intently, and said again and again: "What Miss Shui'er said is, what she said, hahahaha......"
Xia Sheng just came out of the water, he couldn't say how comfortable he was, and he didn't bother to argue with Shui'er, he just smiled and said, "Brother Dali, come to the shore, let you taste my craftsmanship today." ”
As soon as she heard that she was eating, Shui Er finally stopped making a sound, but stared intently at the big silver carp that was still bouncing, and secretly swallowed her saliva.
After a short time, the wooden boat stopped firmly on the shore, and Xia Sheng came to the lake with the fish and began to pack up.
To this day, Xia Sheng still does not have a sword in his hand, or rather, there is still no sword qualified to be held in his hand.
Therefore, whether it is scraping fish scales or cutting the belly of a fish, Xia Sheng directly uses sword qi to complete it.
But in the eyes of others, it is undoubtedly a much more extravagant practice.
Ye Xiao'e squatted aside, just quietly watching Xia Sheng clean up the silver carp, as if she was a little stupid for a while, and the water called in her ear several times before she finally came back to her senses.
"Huh, what's wrong?"
"Miss, what's so nice about killing fish, let's go play in the water!"
Ye Xiao'e couldn't resist the water, so she could only smile bitterly and was pulled away by the other party, and at the same time, the ramming force of the boat also came over.
Holding salt, chili peppers and other seasonings in your hands.
However, before he could get closer, he stopped suddenly, and the whole person was stunned in place, and the expression on his face was as if he had seen a ghost.
Only tigers and leopards can know the horror of mammoths.
And for a little fox who has just stepped into the jungle, there is no difference between a wild wolf and a mammoth.
So it is the same feeling of watching Xia Sheng cut the fish and ramming the strength, but it is completely different from Ye Xiao'e and Shui'er!
What he watched was not how Xia Sheng flew with one palm and how he scraped the fish scales clean, but looked at the sword intent that Xia Sheng involuntarily generated outside his body, and how Xia Sheng used his sword qi like an arm!
Aside from the realm, Xia Sheng's understanding and control of the way of the sword alone already has the demeanor of a grandmaster in the eyes of Tam Dali!
For a time, there was a sense of self-shame and humility in Tamp Dali's heart for no reason.
You know, he's a dignified sword!
If this is preached, who will believe it?
At this time, he didn't know that as early as a few days ago, a kendo powerhouse whose strength and realm were almost the same as his own had also had such an idea.
The Qin family is enshrined, and Kang Wuwei.
Compared with Kang Wuwei's cunning and cunning, his personality is obviously much simpler, and after a short shock, he trotted to Xia Sheng's side, looking at Xia Sheng's palm in a daze.
At this moment, Xia Sheng was scooping up the lake water and preparing to clean the blood foam on the fish, and was startled by the ramming of Dali's behavior, and asked at the moment: "Dali, what's wrong?"
At this time, in Tam Dali's eyes, there was not the slightest hint of stupidity, but the edge was full, he raised his head, stared at Xia Sheng's eyes carefully, and grabbed his wrist.
"Dare to ask Mr. Xia, who is the teacher?"
Xia Sheng was slightly stunned, he didn't expect this ramming force to ask so directly, he couldn't help but show a wry smile, and replied: "The family master once instructed me not to reveal his old man's name to others before I reached the Martial Emperor realm. ”
A trace of regret flashed in Tam Dali's eyes, and then he let go of Xia Sheng's wrist, scratched his head, and said with a smile: "I see, but I was abrupt, abrupt, hahahaha......"
Xia Sheng shook his head understandingly: "It's not in the way, if it's nothing else, why don't you help me make a fire, and when I finish cleaning up this silver carp, I can grill it and eat it." ”
"Okay. Tam replied vigorously, and immediately turned his head to find Chai He.
Looking at his figure gradually drifting away, Xia Sheng couldn't help but sigh lightly: "This guy is too easy to deceive, maybe it is this simple temperament that made him step by step to the realm of the Martial Emperor, the world is unpredictable, the word chance, who can say clearly?"
Such a small episode was not taken to Xia Sheng's heart, he quickly packed up the silver carp in his hand, and carefully smeared all kinds of spices on it, and not long after it was put on the fire, it was full of aroma.
Ye Xiao'e and Shui'er, who were playing in the water not far away, also ran back smelling the smell of meat, Shui'er stared at the fragrant fish in a daze, and finally affirmed Xia Sheng.
"I didn't expect you to be useless in other places, but you inherited Uncle Xia's good cooking skills!"
After a while, the fragrant and tender fish meat was grilled, and the four of them sat down around the bonfire, and Shui Er was the first to reach out and tear a piece of fish down, but he was not afraid of being hot, and sent it into his mouth like swallowing dates.
I have to say that the heat of Xia Sheng is still well controlled, the fish is grilled on the outside and tender on the inside, and the taste is very delicious, which suddenly makes the water involuntarily let out an exclamation.
"It's delicious! It's delicious!
With curiosity in her eyes, Ye Xiao'e took a piece of fish meat from Xia Sheng's hand, took a bite lightly, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she praised again and again: "Brother Ah Sheng is really good at craftsmanship!"
Then, there was no more talk, because everyone was only concerned about eating fish, and even Shui Er, who had always had to taunt Xia Sheng for a few words about everything, was intoxicated by the temptation of food, and he really couldn't spare time.
This grilled fish meal was eaten for most of the hour, seeing that the sky was getting dark, the water breeze was slightly cool, and it was time to take advantage of the joy, the water was lying on the grass, rubbing the round little belly, and watching the sunset on the horizon with satisfaction to hide the last glimmer of light.
"It's just a pity, at the end of the day, I didn't see what the legendary lake god looked like......"
Before the words fell, a gust of wind and waves suddenly rose high in the middle of the lake, and a black shadow broke out of the water from under the water, with a faint golden light on its body, like a god descending from the sky, overlooking all living beings!
Shui Er looked up at the huge black shadow hovering in mid-air, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva fiercely: "If you roast this big water snake and eat it, I don't know how long it will take......
"Well, where did the water snake come from? Ahhh......h
