Pick it out with a stick, grabbing the tail with one hand and pinching the jaw with the other.
"A water snake was actually caught? This is really unexpected."
"Normally, water snakes shouldn't appear in such fast-flowing rivers. They appear more often in creeks."
"Every time I go to the creek, I will pay attention to it. I didn't expect to catch it in the fish basket."
"It's just a little small."
Looking at the water snake in his hand, which was not much bigger than a loach, Mu Qing couldn't help feeling a little disgusted.
I grabbed it in my hand and played with it, then threw it back into the water with a flick of my hand.
[This, throw it away? 】
【Snake: I actually survived in the hands of Master Mu? ? 】
[Hahahaha, this is enough for the little snake to blow for a lifetime. 】
[Little Snake: Can I go?Can?Damn!run! 】
[This snake is really too small. It is almost like an earthworm after peeling its skin. There is nothing to eat. 】
[Don't throw it away, no matter how small a fly's legs are, it's still meat. It's really impossible to catch them and put them in the brook to raise them. 】
[It's useless, I ran away after a while. 】
"I'm still a child, I'm not short of food now, so forget it."
"Mainly, I'm not very good at cleaning snakes. If it's bigger, it's worth spending some time. It's so small."
Skewer the remaining two small fish in the fish basket and carry them.
Take out the bait bag prepared before and put it into the outer basket, fix the fish basket again and put it back into the water.
Go to where you crossed the river before.
Tie up most of the plantain leaves and hang them in a shady place in the woods.
The remaining part was carried by Mu Qing, who took the bamboo basket and fish up the river bank and walked to another fish basket.
Cross the river and take out the fish basket to have a look.
In the fish basket, three thumb-sized fish were flicking their tails vigorously.
"It's small again."
"It's strange, the fish caught today are all small fish, even the snake is small, the bait we put last time is not bad."
Muqing sighed, and hung the small fish in the fish basket on a skewer.
Put the fish basket back into the river again.
"Today, there are only a few small fish, take them home and make soup with tender banana cores."
"I hope the taste is not too bad."
Cross the river, take everything, and carry two skewers of fish.
Muqing walked to the location near the camp, climbed the hillside and returned to the camp.
[Xiaoyu: I'm still a child! 】
[Xiaoyu: You are not short of food, huh. 】
【Poor fish, always at the end of the food chain. 】
【The snake grows small, release it, the crab grows small, raise it, the fish grows small】
【Hey, it’s so small, let’s cook soup with banana cores. 】
[It's not troublesome to cook, and it's not troublesome to eat. Master Mu is also good at it. 】
Back at the camp, Muqing first hung the fish aside, put away everything, and set up a pot to boil water for drinking.
Cut off a section of banana leaf and take out the remaining bones from the previous meal.
Pour it on a banana leaf and smell it.
"After I finished eating, I dried it for a while, so that it is not easy to spoil, and it still smells very good."
Pick up a stone of suitable size from the edge of the camp, and carefully break the bones on the banana leaves.
After knocking, crush the eggshells left in the morning and mix them with the bones.
"The nutritious feed for young crabs is ready."
"Raise them well, and they can catch up with a meal before going back."
"Otherwise, heh heh, grilled small crabs should also be delicious."
Muqing picked up the banana leaf, pointed at the corner, and poured the crushed bones and eggshells back into the bamboo tube.
Take the fish and the water bottle, and go to the river with the bamboo tube.
"It's too troublesome to run back and forth to the creek every day."
"I have enough grain now, let's do it tomorrow, and tomorrow I will start digging ditches to divert the water from the creek.
Looking at the dim light of the day, it must be too late today.
Chapter 121 I'm the Fish with Pickled Vegetables
Sprinkle the broken bones on the place where the crab was caught before, scrape the scales of the small fish to remove the internal organs, and clean them.
When Muqing returned to the camp, the water in the pot happened to boil.
Pour half of it into the cup, put the other half back on the stove, put in the fish and plantain core and continue cooking.
Take some cassava from under the bed and put it on the side of the stove.
"I found that even if this cassava is like this, if it is placed next to the inside of the stove, it will still lose a lot of it when it is cooked."
"So there is no need to peel off the blackened surface, and I won't eat it anyway."
After finishing the fish, Muqing got up, broke off a small amount of hydrochloric acid fruit, and put them in the pot to cook together.
【Um?Mu Ye boiled fish with hydrochloric acid fruit again? 】
