Chapter 98: Strange Fish

wood family.

In winter now, for the Mu clan, it is no longer shivering around the fire in a cold and drafty house, thinking about whether to eat the last bit of food at home, whether to eat today or tomorrow.

In the current winter, the Mu people are no longer afraid, but a little eager. The family sits around the burning fire pit, eats soft and sweet roasted sweet potatoes, and listens to Dad telling stories about hunting in the jungle. What a rare treat.

If it snows, wear the windproof and warm clothes designed by the priests, put on thick hats and gloves, and rush out to build snowmen and have snowball fights. Children are very forgetful, and only one warm winter will completely change them. From their impression of winter and snow, they began to like this white thing.

The most popular among the Mu people is to eat hot pot around the stove.

This seems to have become a custom of the Mu people. Both adults and children are completely in love with this novel way of eating.

Yining held his face and looked out the window, a little bored, Xiaolu took a big bottle next to him, kept changing flowers of various colors, inserted them in, and placed the bottle in the room when it was full. At the time, there were already several bottles in the house, and he was still enjoying it there.

Someone just came to report that a strange fish appeared in the river, and Mu Kun had nothing to do with him, so he went to see it.

Yi Ning is worrying about Mu Xiang.

Ever since Yi Ning went to see Mu Xiang that day, he never dared to go there again. He knew that the girl had deep obsessions, but he didn't expect her to be so scheming, and the most frightening thing was that she still had correct values. Know that the grace of saving life must be paid back, and know that you can't cause harm to others because of your emotional impulse.

She couldn't control her heart, couldn't eliminate her longing and love for Mu Kun, but she was bound by the moral values ​​that she had been taught for more than ten years, and she couldn't do anything inappropriate, so she was in great pain.

Emotion is like a flood, it can only be drained but not blocked. If there is no channel to vent, it's hard to say what Mu Xiang will be like in the end.

The key is what to do now?

Oh, so annoying!

With the sound of light footsteps, the door was pushed open, and Suo Mu came in, carrying a plate of fruit.

"The leader ordered it when he left." Suo Mu put the plate on the table, seeing that Yining was still in a daze, and was about to back out gently, when he heard Yining say suddenly:

"You said, if one thing is known to be impossible, why are there still people who just don't want to give up?"

When he was talking, his eyes were still fixed on looking out of the window, where the snowflakes were flying and the sky and the earth were white.

Suo Mu was a little puzzled, and after thinking about it, he said: "Maybe it's because of too much obsession. Some things always have a result to be at ease."

"The result..." Yining sighed, he couldn't afford the result she wanted.

Suo Mu didn't know what to say anymore, so he closed the door for him, retreated into the outer hall, and came to the side room next to the door. Mu Shan held the latest demon-killing sword made by the eagle in his hand, and he slammed it very seriously. After all, the Demon Extinguishing Sword was named by the priest himself, and there are only ten of them in total, because the two of them are the priest's personal bodyguards, and each of them got one, which made the tribe envious.

Just as he was about to tell Mu Shan that the priest didn't know what was wrong, he seemed to be in a bad mood, when he heard footsteps outside the door, Mu Shan, who was still wiping his sword just now, grabbed the hilt of the sword with his backhand and stood up immediately.

Suo Mu looked out through the small window on the side room, and it turned out that the leader had returned: "It is the leader."

Only then did Mu Shan's tense body relax, and he sat down and continued wiping his sword.

Ever since Yining was assassinated until now, the two of them felt like they were fighting for nothing.

Mu Kun came back with a strange fish in his hand.

Yining looked up curiously, and immediately recalled a movie he had seen in his previous life, and looked up at Suo Mu: "Brother Suo Mu, could you please invite Nan Jin over?"

Suo Mu nodded, put on his cloak and fur hat, and went out.

"What do you want him to do?" Mu Kun asked while taking off the little bits and pieces on his body and throwing them on the table.

Mu Kun didn't like Nan Jin from the first sight.

Shouldn't he be the only one who occupies Yining's eyes and thoughts?This Nan Jin, who looks like a good friend with Yining, what is going on?

Later, when Yining was almost assassinated, it was even more impossible to have a good face towards Nan Jin, especially after knowing that Nan Jin was Lian Wu!

The fugitives of the Heishan clan, the people around Heishan, the ones Heishan would send people thousands of miles to hunt down, this is a ticking time bomb, no one else can hide in time, but Yining pounces on it!

Compatriots from previous lives, fellow villagers are all fucking nonsense, no matter how arrogant Mu Kun is, he would never think that their Mu clan can withstand the attack of a veteran clan like the Blackstone clan.

But no matter how much he can't understand Nan Jin, now that he has come to this point, no matter what he will face in the future, he will not back down. Yining's decision is his decision; what Yining wants is what he wants to get ;What Yining wants to protect is what he wants to stand behind!

But every time Yining has contact with Nan Jin, he still feels uncomfortable, that's why he said this.

Yining gave him a blank look: "Of course there is something wrong."

"Can't you discuss it with me?" Mu Kun's tone was a little depressed.

"You do not understand."

"That can also be discussed with him." Mu Kun pointed at Xiaolu who had pinched the big red flower on his finger and put it in the vase.

Xiaolu was having a good time, when she was called out suddenly, she raised her head in a daze, with a dazed expression on her face.

"He doesn't understand either." Yining said unhappily: "I haven't been there personally, I haven't experienced it personally, I just simply saw it with my eyes, and if I know it, I may not be able to understand that feeling."

Seeing that Mu Kun was still bored, Yining softened his heart, leaned over and sat down next to him, and said with a sense of explanation: "I know you and Xiaolu have known about my past, so do you still remember our past? Is there an entertainment called a movie?"

Mu Kun nodded. Xiaolu told him what a movie is, which is to record other people's stories with a magical machine, play them on a piece of cloth, and then add sound and text.

Then offer it to a bunch of bored and curious people, and let them pay to see it.

At that time, Mu Kun mainly wanted to know about things related to Yining, but he just skimmed over the movie and didn't study it seriously.Thanks to his good memory, now that Yining said he can still recall what the movie was about.

"Just like watching a movie, every movie tells a story, and sometimes shows some strange elements to the people who watch the movie. But after watching a movie, some people can't understand it, even if they are the same Different people will have different understandings after watching a movie. Most people will understand the theme that the director wants to express, and some bad movies can’t even understand after reading the movie reviews. So Said, even though you know what the world I live in doesn't mean you can have the same understanding as me, and the understanding is quite different." Yining explained patiently.

"Then can Nan Jin have the same feeling and understanding as you?" Mu Kun asked suddenly.

This question was so sharp that Yining choked, and was speechless for a moment.

After being tongue-tied for a long time, Yining's eyes suddenly became strange, a little unbelievable.

"Mukun... are you jealous?"

Mu Kun's expression froze, and he quickly denied: "No! What's the matter?! I'm just a little upset. You and that Nan Jin always have endless things to talk about..."

Yining looked at him looking so depressed that his heart suddenly felt warm, a sweet feeling flooded his heart, and the corners of his mouth curled up uncontrollably.

See if Suo Mu hasn't come back yet.Mu Shan also went back to the hut to continue wiping his sword, Xiao Lu was playing happily, didn't pay attention to this side at all, and quickly moved over and kissed the corner of Mu Kun's mouth.

When he rarely took the initiative like this, Mu Kun's eyes warmed up, and his stinky face immediately melted away.

Seeing Yining sniggering triumphantly like a cat that ate a fish, with crooked brows and happy eyes, his heart suddenly felt itchy. Just as he was about to go over and kiss him, Suo Mu came back with Nan Jin.

Yining blushed a little, immediately pushed Mu Kun away and stood up, pretending to be nonchalant and said: "You guys are back, so fast!"

Suo Mu smiled honestly, and muttered inexplicably: "It's not that far away."

Nan Jin looked between Yining and Mu Kun, and smiled meaningfully.

Yining's face turned even redder, and he quickly changed the topic and asked Nan Jin to look at the fish.

Nan Jin just glanced at it and then became weird.

This fish is about a foot long. Its body looks like a normal grass carp, but its tail and fins are much sharper and harder. It is dark black-gray and has a metallic texture when it is wet.

The strangest thing is that this fish has a big head that is disproportionate to the body, like a swollen fist, which grows abruptly on a relatively slender fish. The big head is divided into upper and lower halves, and the middle is full of sharp teeth. mouth.

Nan Jin picked it up with a stick and looked at the fish's teeth. There were three rows in total, shining like small nails with a frightening cold light. Some of them had been broken, and there were shreds of meat and blood in the gums, and the fish's scales had also fallen off. Many, with a big hole in the stomach.

Judging by the tragic appearance, the fish must have struggled before it died.

Looking at Yining, Yining looked solemn: "It looks a lot like it?"

"It's more than just like, it's exactly the same." Nan Jin touched his chin and said, "Is this a biological invasion? Where did you find it? I didn't expect to see this kind of thing in reality. If it really looks like what was shown on TV That way, if this fish reproduces so fast... that would be a real disaster."

Yining frowned, turned to look at Mu Kun.

Although Mu Kun didn't quite understand what they were talking about, he also felt the seriousness and tension in their tone, and immediately replied: "It was found in the Bei'e River. This kind of fish is extremely ferocious. Don't look at its size , but the power is not small."

It turned out that since Yining taught the Mu people how to dig ice for fishing last winter, and got a lot of big and fat fresh fish, the Mu people have never forgotten it.

Because the fish in the fish ponds are food reserves, the clan members are not allowed to take them without permission until the time when the ponds are raised within the clan, so it is not easy to eat some fresh fish in the winter.Therefore, many people hoped that the weather would be cold enough and the river would freeze quickly, so that Professor Yining's method could be used to cut through the ice and get some fresh fish to eat.

Fish meat is high in protein. After using ginger to remove the fishy smell according to the method taught by Yining, whether it is stewed, grilled, fried, or made into fish balls and served in a hot pot, it is supremely delicious.

Moreover, the Mu tribe has a rule that the fish caught in leisure time belong to private property, so the Mu tribe people are particularly motivated.

The person who discovered the strange fish this time was a man named Chang Qing.

He was originally a member of the Baishui tribe, and he had long been envious of the Mu tribe's way of life. After finally joining the Mu tribe, he was naturally overjoyed. After hearing about ice fishing, he prepared as early as others for the winter. I got the tools, and when the river froze, I cut through the ice and started fishing.

Unexpectedly, the first few fish were relatively normal, but then such a weird fish was caught, it was weird, but it was extremely ferocious, and it kept jumping when it was thrown on the ice. Chang Qing walked over to prepare to catch it. Knocked out, but it opened its big mouth and bit the hand, and couldn't shake it off. After the partner stabbed the fish to death, the fish's teeth were still deeply sunken in the flesh.

I forcibly opened the fish's mouth, and the blood was profuse, and many teeth were still in the flesh, which shows how fierce this fish is.

After this incident, it was impossible to continue fishing, so Chang Qing had no choice but to go to Wu and ask him to help treat the wound, and those who were smart went to ask Mu Kun.

"Then have you found any other fish of this kind?" Yining asked the most worried question.

"Have."

Yi Ning's heart sank.

"There are many shadows and shadows under the ice. It should be this kind of fish. I have ordered the people to stop ice-piercing fishing——Yining, other than being a bit fiercer than other fish, what's so weird about it? ?”

Yining and Nan Jin looked at each other, and they both saw worry in each other's eyes.

"In our previous life, there was a movie called piranha, which looked very similar to this fish. This fish reproduces very fast and has a strong thirst for flesh and blood. Once it bites flesh, it will never let go. The meat is bitten off. And the digestion speed of this fish is very fast, so they are always in a state of hunger, growing while eating, and if a person falls into the water, he will be gnawed into a skeleton by this fish in just a few minutes."

Mu Kun pondered: "Then as long as people stay away from the water, there should be no danger?"

"But people always need to drink water. It's okay in winter now. We can boil snow into water. After the snow melts, people always want to get close to the river..."

For a while, several people had no good solution.

At this moment, he heard the door of the courtyard being slammed, urgently and loudly, Suo Mu went to answer the door, and when he turned back, there was an expression of awe that he had never seen before:

"The leader, the priest, the patrolling guards came over and reported that they had caught an outsider. He claimed to be... a person from the sacred mountain, and came to find the priest!"
