Crossing 70: Fish in the Pond Have Good News

Jiang Yu picked up a long, non-toxic worm, picked some pine mushrooms and put them in the basket, then continued forward.

She walked quickly and had already reached the mountainside. The occasional chirping of insects and birds, accompanied by the rustling of leaves, made the mountain seem even quieter.

Jiang Yu dug out a piece of immortal grass from a pile of weeds and carefully put it away in the space.

From afar, there was a sound of something jumping and landing. Jiang Yu's eyes lit up. He put away the basket and rushed out in an instant.

A group of silly roe deer are jumping towards this side.

Jiang Yu picked up a small stone and threw it hard at the target.

The little guy at the end of the team fell down.

When the other silly roe deer heard the sound of falling to the ground, they actually stopped and looked back foolishly.

The ginger fish took a step forward, and the silly roe deer took a few steps back as if frightened. But the ginger fish did not move, and they could not help but approach curiously.

It is truly a blessing from God that this animal has not been eaten to the point of extinction.

Jiang Yu stopped teasing these silly little animals. He patted the nearest one's butt out of curiosity. After watching it scurry away, he walked forward, picked up the silly roe deer that he had knocked out, and went down the mountain.

During the time she was in the mountains, Fu Biao and Chen Jinghan caught two rabbits, while Xue Li and Xiong Lijin picked some wild vegetables and prepared to cook some soup to relieve the greasiness.

"That's amazing. We actually have to eat wild vegetables to relieve our greasiness? What kind of conditions are these?" Xue Li chattered while washing the vegetables.

Xiong Lijin took out the small ceramic pot he had carried with him and washed it.

When Jiang Yu walked near the mountain stream, he happened to meet Fu Biao carrying a rabbit out.

"Fuck! Silly roe deer?" Fu Biao exclaimed, and hurriedly ran towards Jiang Yu, "Sister, you are awesome! You are so lucky to have met a silly roe deer!"

Xue Li had sharp ears, and he ran over when he heard the sound, "What? What did you catch? Let me see~"

"Silly roe deer! Hey, we're in for a treat today!" Chen Jinghan was also very happy, although the rabbit in his hand was again defeated by Jiang Yu's silly roe deer, but it didn't matter. He always lost to Jiang Yu anyway, he was used to it.

Chef Wu Aiqing is sharpening his knife.

"Be careful with the skin." Jiang Yu warned as he handed the roe deer over. "By the way, it's not dead yet. They are all deer. Is its blood a good thing?"

"Of course it is! I'll get some blood tofu and cook it into the soup." Wu Aiqing took out another pottery jar, picked up the roe deer and went to work by the river.

Several male comrades quickly followed.

Xue Li took out a few soft dates from the basket beside him and said, "These are the few remaining fruits. Let's eat them between the two of us and not give them to them."

Jiang Yu didn't answer, "Wait for me to wash my hands."

Xue Li followed with the soft dates, and the two of them walked to the river to wash their hands, and then squatted there to share the soft dates.

The sweet and soft fruit releases refreshing juice in your mouth, quenching your thirst and whetting your appetite.

The roe deer are big and Wu Aiqing can't finish them all in one go, so he starts a new roast and roasts the part that he is going to take back.

"It's roasted and dry. When we want to eat it at home, we can cut some into stew. It's just right for us to add some oil and water during the busy farming season." Wu Aiqing also picked up pine branches and waited to smoke them at the last minute.

It is very likely that you will overeat from this meal.

Pheasant and deer blood soup is sprinkled with wild vegetables before serving to enhance the flavor and reduce greasiness. Rabbit and roe deer legs are roasted, smeared with five-spice salt to enhance the flavor, and can be eaten directly with your hands.

"My God, who would have thought that I went to the countryside to enjoy myself? Eating meat from time to time and eating until I was full. I couldn't even dream of it!" Fu Biao sighed after swallowing the roe deer meat in his mouth.

Although they had a good family background, their parents were both cadres, and the food at home was pretty good, but supplies were limited in those days, and eating meat every meal was a dream. Chen Jinghan's father had the highest position, but the monthly supply of meat was limited, and the only time they could enjoy chicken and fish was during the Chinese New Year.

Of course, if you have money and channels, you can definitely enjoy life, but most people don’t dare to go too far.

"On the Ginger Fish Train, they said you can hit roe deer with a stick and scoop fish with a ladle. Legend has it that there are water bubbles here with so many fish that you can't scoop them all out. I don't know if I'll have the chance to see them once." Xue Li sighed happily while drinking pheasant soup.

It’s about time. In a few years, when the Animal Protection Law is introduced, these wild animals will become treasures. Who would dare to hunt and kill small animals indiscriminately?

Xiong Lijin has also heard about this. "But I heard it from the uncles in the village. The last time a bubble appeared was three years ago in the mountains of N City. We haven't seen one here for a long time. Many young people think that the older generation is bragging. I don't know if we will have this luck again."

Jiang Yu bit the rabbit leg, and suddenly heard the sound of gurgling water in her ears, but the river was right in front of her, why was there a sound of water behind her? She stood up and ran towards the place where the sound of water came from.

"Jiang Yu? Jiang Yu, what are you doing?" Xue Li also stood up and shouted at her.

The others looked at each other and stood up to look around.

Jiang Yu pinched the rabbit's leg and looked at the puddle in front of him. It was still sinking and getting bigger, and the sound of water was getting heavier. "Fu Biao! Quickly send the roe deer back to the educated youth point. Chen Jinghan, go to the village to find Uncle Zhuang. A puddle has appeared."

Xue Li is so good at talking, she wouldn't believe it if she wasn't the heroine! Jiang Yu smacked his lips.

"Water bubbles?" several people said in unison.

"Is there really a bubble?" Fu Biao was startled and ran to the pool. He saw the clear water, which was glittering with silver light, and there were many fish in it. His mouth was so big that an egg could fit in it.

"Don't waste time, take the roe deer back and hide it, and bring some more containers to hold the fish." Jiang Yu patted him on the shoulder, finished the rabbit leg in a few bites, rubbed the bones with his toes, and began to prepare to catch the fish.

Chen Jinghan quickly took a backpack and together with Wu Aiqing, wrapped the roe deer that needed to be smoked in large leaves, covered them with wild vegetables, and stuffed them into Fu Biao's hands. "Hurry up, you go back from the end of the village, I'll go to the fields at the head of the village to call for help, hurry up."

Xue Li cleared out the other backpacks and pulled them all to the edge of the pond.

Jiang Yu pulled the thin vines from a nearby tree to make a simple fishing net.

Wu Aiqing and Xiong Lijin cleaned up the battlefield together. They had to clean up all the traces of the barbecue, otherwise when the villagers came and saw it, some of them might gossip and talk nonsense.

After Jiang Yu had finished making the net, he called Xue Li over to help.

Two people cast the net from the edge and scooped it up.

"Oh my god! It's worthy of being the legendary water bubble fish... Hey hey hey, it's too heavy." Xue Li was stunned. He could easily fill a net bag with just one scoop. It felt like a dream.

Jiang Yu exerted force on his waist and abdomen, and with a flick of his arms, he directly flipped all the fish in the net onto the grass next to him. "Wu Aiqing, come and give me a hand. Xue Li and Xiong Lijin will pick up the fish. Let's get more fish in, so that we can get more when the village distributes the fish."

"Here we come." After finishing the work over there, the two male comrades hurried over to help.

Not long after, "Where is the water bubble?" In the distance, many people rushed down from Yaoer Mountain, and the excited voice of the team leader Zhuang Shouren could be heard from far away.
