Mountain driving career since 1982

Chapter 173 Flying Fish (Fifth Change)

Snapped……

After aiming, Chen Xiuqing let go of the finger holding the bullet pocket, and the bow skin rebounded with a soft sound, driving the bullet to shoot towards the pheasant.

However, the projectile failed to hit the pheasant's head as expected, and the deviation was a bit large, and it hit the pheasant's wing.

The pheasant screamed in pain, fluttering its wings and trying to fly, but because its wings were injured, it fell again, so it could only burrow into the grass and bushes.

The four of Yuan Baoniang rushed out when they heard the sound of the slingshot, and the fleeing pheasant was quickly brought back by Yuan Bao biting its wings.

"You still need a lot of practice with your slingshot!" Lu Lu patted Chen Xiuqing's shoulder and smiled.

Chen Xiuqing smiled embarrassedly.

"Anyway, compared to the beginning, there is still a big improvement." Lu Lu encouraged: "Come on, you will use the slingshot very well in the future!"

"Yeah!" Chen Xiuqing nodded.

After running around for so long, not to mention Lu Lu, even Chen Xiuqing started to cry hungry.

When the two passed a small river, they decided to fill their stomachs before talking.

Lu Lu gathered firewood and built a fire by the river beach, while Chen Xiuqing skinned the greyhound and pheasant and prepared to roast them.

The pheasant is not small, and its feathers are burned in the fire. It is not easy to cook and burn through, so it can only be peeled.

When the firewood burned a pile of fiery red charcoal, Chen Xiuqing had already cleaned the pheasant and the three greyhounds, pierced them with a sharp stick cut out with a knife, and grilled them on the charcoal fire.

While Chen Xiuqing was flipping and roasting these barbecued meats, Lu Lu sat and rested beside him.

Roasted by the charcoal fire, the meat of the three greyhounds first made a sizzling sound, and the fat dripped into the fire, and there were wisps of smoke, accompanied by a smell of burnt.

Gradually, the gray dog's meat turned brown, and after Chen Xiuqing sprinkled some salt, it was roasted for a while, and one was sent to Lu Lu first.

Grilled greyhounds and fried greyhounds are completely different things. The smell of fireworks and the unique aroma of pine nuts in greyhound meat combine to create a more special taste. Don’t look at the simple addition of some salt. As soon as you take it in, the tempting taste will definitely make your index finger move.

As food waiting to be eaten, two of the three greyhounds fell into Lu Lu's stomach, and the third was eaten by Chen Xiuqing.

However, compared to greyhound meat, the same roasted pheasant meat has a much worse taste.

Lu Lu only ate a chicken leg and a piece of preserved meat, so he had no intention of eating any more.

He wondered if he would go to the mountain to hunt some greyhounds tomorrow, and roast some to satisfy his appetite.

While Chen Xiuqing was still yelling at the pheasant, Lu Lu went to the river and drank a full amount of cold water with his buttocks pouted.

I grabbed the sand from the river bank, rubbed the oil on my hands, washed my face, and was about to go back to the river beach to rest. Everyone stood up, and suddenly heard an unusual splashing sound from the river.

There is something!
Lu Lu suddenly turned around and looked at Xiaohe.

The small river in this valley is only three or four meters wide, and because of the large drop in the terrain, the water flow seems a bit turbulent.

Lu Lu looked at it for a while, but found no small animals. He couldn't help but frowned slightly, and began to wonder if he heard it wrong.

Turn around so quickly, if there is something, it should not escape your eyes.

While he was wondering, he suddenly saw a small fish about half a catty breaking through the water and jumping towards a higher current.

The whole process is just like flying.

It's just that its aim was worse than Chen Xiuqing's slingshot. It jumped out of the water against the current, and the height was enough, but the direction was off. It hit a protruding river rock, and then fell back again.

When he saw the little fish clearly, Lu Lu suddenly smiled.

Green scale fish...

Can actually see green scale fish in this kind of place!

Perhaps because it is in the mountains, some people will say, how can there be too many fish in this kind of place with small rivers and few lakes, and even if there are, they are nothing more than unknown little fish.

In fact, in the rivers and lakes of Xiaoxing'an Mountains, there are not only many kinds of fish, but also many special fish.

As far as Lu Lu knows, on the northern slope of the Xiaoxing'an Mountains, there are more fish in the Kurbin River and Wuyun River.

Among them is a fish called Qinglinzi, with green and white scales and tender and delicious meat. If it is stewed, there is no need to add too much seasoning, just add some salt to make it very delicious.

Green scale fish, copper tilapia, is one of the famous "three flowers and five Luos" fish in this wilderness. It is very picky about water quality, and if it is polluted, it will immediately migrate and disappear without a trace.

They don't like to live in gentle currents, but prefer to chase waves in turbulent places; they don't like to wander alone, and always forge ahead in groups, as if being pulled by a certain goal upstream.

Every year from the melting of ice and snow to the blooming of summer flowers, I have been running against the current in the water non-stop. Even when I reach the waterfall that makes all the fish stop, I still leap out of the pursuit tenaciously again and again, trying to reach higher places.

It feels like a carp jumping over the dragon's gate.

Lu Lu never expected that such a delicacy can be found in such an ordinary river that is not on the northern slope of Xing'an Mountains.

He looked at the deeper part of the water in the center of the small river. Through the river water so clear that he could see the sand and stones at the bottom of the river, he could see more than a dozen green scale fish swimming in it.

A good fish is not easy to catch!

Lu Lu looked at the sky, he didn't have much time to toss around, he had to come prepared, there was no good way, it was not easy to get this fish.

He deeply remembered the location of this small river.

Chen Xiuqing finally finished eating the chicken, got up and went to the small river to drink water with her buttocks sticking out.

"Brother Lu, when shall we come to the alkali field?"

After drinking enough water, he stood up, looked at Lu Lu and asked.He is still thinking about the salt nest set up today.

"Every three to five days!" Lu Lu said after a little estimation.

"Then shall we enter the mountain tomorrow?" Chen Xiuqing asked again.

"Tomorrow is a day off!"

Although I didn't make a big deal, I have been tossing and tossing for several days, not to mention people, even Yuan Baoniang four are enough.

Among other things, today alone, traveling such a long distance is quite difficult for Yuan Bao and the others.

Dogs get tired too.

Only with proper self-cultivation can we have a better spirit and deal with various complicated situations.

Lu Lu got some mud from the river beach, went back to the fire, and extinguished the smoldering embers of the fire: "Hurry up and go back, you have to go faster, or it will be dark when you get home."

Chen Xiuqing nodded and helped pack the things. The two of them quickened their pace and set off on their way back.

"Brother Lu...then what are we going to do the day after tomorrow?" Chen Xiuqing started asking again, as if she was afraid that Lu Lu would not take him into the mountains.

"The day after tomorrow, let's go fishing in this river!"

Greyhounds are often found, but green scale fish is hard to come across. Since I encountered it by chance, if I don’t get some to go back and taste it, I will live up to the deliciousness.

Chen Xiuqing was stunned for a moment: "Fishing... so far?"

He couldn't figure out how Lu Lu could be so carefree, even if he hunted greyhounds and jumping cats, it was better than fishing.Moreover, here is at least twenty miles away from Xiushantun.

"Aren't you coming?" Lu Lu asked with a smile.

Chen Xiuqing didn't even think about it, she nodded and said, "Come, definitely come..."

These words made Lu Lu amused, and joked: "I thought you would choose to stay in my basement, as long as Wang Dalong and the others come to work, Yanzi will come to cook."

Chen Xiuqing hesitated for a while, and asked after a while, "Brother Lu, are you really here to fish the day after tomorrow?"

"What did I lie to you for?"

"Then I'll help you herd the horses, feed the deer, and watch the cellars!"

"Alas...you value sex over friends!"
