I have been farming since I crossed over.

When Yang Mingxi and Lu Jintang rushed back to where Lu Dashan and his group were staying, they saw from afar that Lu Dazheng was busy leading the others in processing the cooked sea fish. They saw that the plump sea fish had been neatly cut into even-sized pieces and neatly stacked aside, waiting to be put into the pot for cooking.

At this time, a sturdy man with a smile on his face walked quickly to Lu Da and said excitedly: "Brother Lu, let's put these sea fish in the pot and cook them! This thing is not easy to cook. If it is not cooked enough, the taste will be terrible!" As he said, he spat out a mouthful of saliva, as if he had already eaten the unpalatable sea fish.

Lu Da shook his head gently and replied calmly, "Don't be impatient. Wait a moment. We can cook it when the masters come back. And you see, after being treated like this, the fish is actually very easy to cook. Besides, don't you have two squads out hunting? We should wait for them to come back so we can enjoy it together."

Hearing this, the man not only did not give up the idea, but he smiled and approached Lu Da again, asking curiously: "Brother Lu, do you think this fish can really be so delicious after being processed like this? Have you eaten it before?"

Faced with the man's barrage of questions, Lu Da finally grew impatient and frowned, scolding, "Duan Xiaofeng, why are you so long-winded? I'm telling you it's delicious, so why are you asking so many questions? If you keep on talking, I'll tell your brother and have him give you a good beating!"

Duan Xiaofeng still said with a smile on his face: "Brother Lu, I actually really hope to be beaten up by my brother, but the problem is, I have no chance to see him at all! Do you know? He is still trapped in the prison in the capital! Alas, I don’t know if he can walk out of there alive!" As soon as he finished speaking, the smile on Duan Xiaofeng's face disappeared instantly, replaced by a worried look, as if he had collapsed.

After listening to Duan Xiaofeng's words, Lu Da suddenly realized a serious problem—it seemed like they hadn't received the latest news in a long time! So, he looked at Duan Xiaofeng with sympathy and slowly said, "Brother Duan, you may not be fully aware of the situation. In fact, your brother and his family have already been released from prison and are now in Qianhuang Mountain! It's just that he was on another important mission this time, so he couldn't make it here."

Upon hearing this, Duan Xiaofeng became as excited as a child. He jumped up high and cheered non-stop, "Wow, really? That's fantastic! That's great! Thank you, Brother Lu, for telling me this good news! Please tell my brother that I miss him very much! Oh, no, no, I should tell him that I'm doing well here, and my martial arts skills have improved a lot! Hehehe..."

Looking at Duan Xiaofeng's ignorant face, as if there was something missing in his head, Lu Da couldn't help but think of Lu Twelve's clever and intelligent look, who understood everything at a glance, and shook his head helplessly.

As Yang Mingxi and Lu Jintang walked onto the beach, Lu Da, with his sharp eyes, spotted them. He hurried over, smiling broadly, and said, "Miss Yang, we've already prepared the fish you requested! I'm just wondering when you'd like to start cooking it? How about we get started now?" He gestured towards the pile of fish nearby.

Yang Mingxi looked in the direction of his finger and saw a large number of sea fish. But after a moment's thought, she replied, "I think these fish still aren't enough for a full meal. How about this? You take everyone out to sea to catch some more, and we'll stay here on the beach and pick up some other kinds of seafood. Once everyone's here, we can start cooking together! After all, seafood cooks pretty fast."

Lu Da nodded repeatedly in agreement, then turned to glance at Duan Xiaofeng, his eyes saying, "Well, look at how well Miss Yang arranges things. You didn't believe me before, but now you're convinced!" He then shouted loudly, and the twenty or thirty people standing around him all rushed to the beach. Before long, they were hauling back a full haul of large, plump fish.

Yang Mingxi was happily strolling along the beach when her eyes suddenly lit up. She saw plump hairy crabs hiding beside the rocks, some crawling leisurely, others quietly hiding in their nests.

Yang Mingxi was overwhelmed with joy. She bent down, quickly picked up a hairy crab, and placed it in her hands, feeling its hard shell and powerful claws. Then, she took the second and third hairy crabs as if they were treasures, her face filled with an irrepressible smile of excitement.

As more and more hairy crabs were collected, Yang Mingxi shouted excitedly, "Lu Jintang, come here quickly! Come and help me deal with these treasures! Find a bucket or basin to put them in. I'll cook them for you tomorrow. They're so delicious!"

Lu Jintang, who was not far away, heard the shouting and shook his head helplessly. To him, this hard thing was really unappetizing. But seeing Yang Mingxi so happy, he felt embarrassed to spoil her fun, so he stood up, found a bowl to hold the food, and slowly walked towards Yang Mingxi.

After arriving next to Yang Mingxi, Lu Jintang reluctantly picked up a few hairy crabs from the ground and put them into the basin, muttering, "Ah Xi, that's enough. Is this really that delicious? I think it's very hard. I guess you can't even bite it."

Yang Mingxi looked at him disapprovingly, smiled and shook her head and said, "Oh, you don't understand. Wait until I cook it and you'll know how delicious it is! But since you don't want to eat it, it's up to you." After that, she continued to pick up the hairy crabs with her head down and concentrate on it.

After a while, Lu Jintang saw that the basin was already filled with a lot of hairy crabs, so he said, "Axi, that's enough. Stop picking them up. We can't finish all of them."

Yang Mingxi finally stopped what she was doing, looked up at Lu Jintang, nodded, and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, then you can help me take these back. Remember to soak them in fresh water." So, Lu Jintang had no choice but to pick up the basin full of hairy crabs, turned around, and slowly walked towards his residence...

Duan Xiaofeng came back from fishing and saw Yang Mingxi picking up hairy crabs. He quickly ran over and said, "Brother, don't pick these up with your hands. They'll get pinched. What are you going to do with them? I'll help you. These are useless and can't be eaten."

Yang Mingxi looked at the cute little boy and smiled, "Look, if you do this, it won't pinch your hand. I'll pick some and cook them tomorrow. They'll taste great, but they need to be soaked in fresh water overnight before they're edible. Help me pick some, and I'll give you two to try tomorrow."

After listening to this, Duan Xiaofeng frowned, stretched out his right hand and kept scratching his head, and asked with a puzzled look: "Little brother, I want to ask you something, what is fresh water? Why does this hard thing become delicious after being soaked in fresh water? We have cooked it before, but it is like chewing on a rock, it is impossible to bite it at all!"

Hearing this, Yang Mingxi was stunned and muttered to herself: Don't they even know what fresh water is? After a moment's thought, she casually responded, "Then what kind of water do you usually drink?"

Duan Xiaofeng had a strange look on his face. He stared at Yang Mingxi as if she were a monster. Then he slowly walked forward, reached out his hand and gently touched Yang Mingxi's forehead, muttering, "Hey, you don't have a fever? How can you ask such a weird question? Of course it's just drinking water!"

Seeing Duan Xiaofeng's reaction, Yang Mingxi suddenly realized that her question seemed a little inappropriate. She quickly reached out and slapped away the "claw" that Duan Xiaofeng had placed on her head, and hurriedly explained, "Oh, I mean, where do you get the water you drink from?"
