Rebirth of Fishing Village: Starting from Hua Axiang in Jiehu Village

Chapter 16 Xiaozahai and Yanzi Crab

Zhao Dahai strode to the edge of the mangrove forest, checked that the tide had not receded, found a shady place to rest for a while, remembered Liu Bin just now, and sneered.

The mother-in-law at home has no brains?

It's just Liu Bin's excuse!

It's not a three-year-old child, no matter if he is married from another village or from the same village, it is impossible to remember the land of any family wrong.When you plant a tree, you want to occupy land.

If it hadn't been for the battle with Sun Minghua a few days ago to get back the vegetable field behind the house, Liu Bin would not have told himself about it. If he couldn't get back his own vegetable field, he wouldn't be able to get back the land on this mountain either. Liu Bin would definitely say that it was him. own land.

Liu Bin took the initiative to say that the wrong land was planted, and he gave some face, and didn't care about it too much.If I don't talk about it today, it won't be so easy to talk about when I go up the mountain and find out about it.

Zhao Dahai watched the sea water recede slowly. The water in the mangrove forest was less than half a meter deep, but the higher place on the side had been exposed.

Zhao Dahai had just entered the water, and the jumping fish jumped forward in groups, all rushing to the mangrove forest. When I came here last time, I found that there were a lot of jumping fish here. Today, I found more and thought about it. One day I really have to come here to catch these jumping fish, continue to move forward, and soon found a few good-sized hairy clams, this is a small black hairy shell with thin black shells, not really delicious , but, the taste is not bad, it is very good to have a meal from time to time, in just ten minutes, I picked up more than [-] cats, which weighed about two catties, went back to wash it, boiled it in water or picked out the meat and stir-fried, and there was a dish .

"what?"

"Mantis shrimp?"

Zhao Dahai looked at a two-finger-sized hole in the mudflat not far from his feet.This is the hole dug by the mantis shrimp.The holes in this place range from half a meter to one meter deep.The sea mud on the beach is very sticky. It takes a long time to pull it out even if you use a hoe to suck it tightly.However, there is another way, which can be caught without much effort.

Zhao Dahai searched around and found another hole of the same size about one meter away. This is the hole dug by the same mantis shrimp. The two holes are connected, one in front and the other behind, so that they can escape easily when encountering natural enemies. Lift your foot, put it on a hole, step on it hard, and immediately a jet of water will come out from the other hole, lift your leg and then step down hard, repeating continuously, jet after jet of water rushes out After stepping on it seven or eight times in succession, a mantis shrimp crawled out of the hole with its head poking its head.Mantis shrimps are also called mantis shrimps. They have sickle-like forelimbs, and their tails are sharper and harder like blades. They bounce like springs when they encounter threats and struggle. If you are inexperienced in catching this thing, you may accidentally see blood. Press your index finger The back of the live mantis shrimp is directly pressed into the sea mud and does not move without struggling. The thumb and middle finger are one in front of the other. The whole mantis shrimp is folded and pinched. One finger is as long as two fingers and the beach can grow this size. Looks pretty good.

Zhao Dahai continued to walk forward with one foot deep and one shallow.Hairy clams?not interested.The target now is the mantis shrimp.The hairy clams are edible but the taste is really mediocre, and the mantis shrimp is much better.In the tidal flat in front of the mangrove forest, there are not too many small seafood. In half an hour, seven or eight mantis shrimps of the same size were obtained. After moving a few stones, four stone crabs fell into the net bag. Unexpectedly, they were dug up. A small octopus.

Zhao Dahai looked at the net bag in his hand, and laughed. In such a short period of time, he caught a lot of things, tied them up with a knot, and cooked them when he went home, enough for himself and his grandma Zhong Cuihua to eat.

Zhao Dahai saw that the tide had receded in the mangrove forest and the ground was exposed. The time was just right, so he got in right away. Today he came here not for this little seafood, but blue crabs.

Zhao Dahai quickened his pace. When he was young, he used to walk around in the mangrove forest. He was very familiar with it. In just 10 minutes, he found another trench that was about the same size as yesterday. Water, walk forward quickly, search left and right with both eyes, stop and observe carefully when you see a hole to distinguish whether there are blue crabs, if there are any, dig immediately, if there are no, give up and continue to move forward.

what happened?

Are there so few blue crabs?
Zhao Dahai frowned. In two hours, this was already the fourth ditch in front of him. He only dug up a blue crab and it was not big. It looked like three or two. He was very disappointed. Go more into the mangroves, catch more blue crabs, sell more money to repair fishing boats.Now it seems that thinking is too simple. There are not as many blue crabs in the mangroves as I imagined. The last harvest was an accident.

Zhao Dahai found a drier place, pulled some weeds, and sat down on a cushion. There were no blue crabs in several ditches. Blue crabs were found in the mangroves.

The sun is westward.

The light is getting weaker and weaker.The mangroves grow densely and darken faster.

Birds flew in circles one after another, singing incessantly.It was very lively.

Zhao Dahai stood up, turned on the flashlight, got into the mangrove forest, and walked 300 meters without any results. Just as he was thinking about giving up and going home, he saw a blue crab crawling towards a small dead fish. According to it, bent over and walked quickly.

"Aha."

"Umami crab."

Zhao Dahai grabbed the blue crab and took a closer look, very happy.

Blue crabs include different growth and maturity levels in different seasons and different growth stages, and are divided into butter crabs, meat crabs, water crabs, and cream crabs.At the beginning of the growth stage of blue crabs, there is not much meat and more water. This is a water crab. It has no meat but is fresh and sweet. It continues to grow, and the meat is firm. It becomes a meat crab. It continues to grow and has cream, which is cream crab.

Blue crabs continue to grow after the stage of meat crabs, and slowly mature. Female crabs that can reproduce but have not yet reproduced are yan crabs, which are equivalent to unmarried yellow flower girls. The whole crab is fat, even like a half Quicksand texture, meanwhile, the skin is soft and the meat is tender and sweet.

This time, Zhao Dahai prepared the rope in advance, so he didn’t need to pull the vines. He carefully tied it and put it in a net bag. Only blue crabs, five blue crabs were caught in less than an hour at night. Although they are not big, they all look like six or seven taels, but they are all young crabs, and the price is comparable to old blue crabs that weigh a catty and a half.

Zhao Dahai continued to walk forward, had a good harvest, and disappeared after a while. After two hours, the tide began to rise. Now is the prime time, and blue crabs are all out to find food. We must hurry up and get as many as possible Grasp.
