I have a sea in ancient times

Chapter 16 You Steel-Headed Scorpio Man

Lu Hai's headlight shone on it, and it was a round thing with four legs.

A big turtle.

I don't know how many years I haven't seen this kind of sea creature, but after seeing this sea turtle, Zhao Youxue exclaimed: "This is a tortoiseshell!"

Zhao Youxue was very excited, she trotted over a few steps, picked up her phone, and took a picture of the tortoise shell.

Lu Hai also walked over and found that the turtle was really big, about half a meter long, and it looked like it had thirteen scales on its back.

And this time.

I don't know if Zhao Youxue was too excited or why, but she tried to force the author to explain, and started to pour water: "The hawksbill turtle is a very long-lived sea turtle, which is distributed all over the world, but this kind of turtle is quite pitiful.

Because their turtle backs are relatively hard, they are organic gemstones. Since ancient times, they have been used as handicrafts, polished into combs, pendants and other jewelry, and they have also been used as traditional Chinese medicine in our country.

However, the reason why they almost became extinct is that their tortoise shells were first valued by the glasses factories in the neon country as the first-class material for making frames. "

Speaking of this, Zhao Youxue gritted her teeth and said, "To make the tortoise shell into beautiful handicrafts and mirror frames, you must scald the tortoise shell to death with boiling water, the method is extremely cruel.

For our researchers, the hawksbill turtle is a very important part of the marine environment, and its staple food is a marine creature called a "sponge".

This kind of creature competes with corals for living space. Due to the restriction of hawksbill, sponges will not grow wantonly. But now with the disappearance of hawksbill, corals also have great problems.

"

Zhao Youxue talked in her own field of expertise. Lu Hai's front was very interesting, but as soon as she talked about environmental protection, Lu Hai had a headache.

He checked the netted tortoiseshell. It should have been netted for a long time and looked listless, or it might have been out of the water for too long and looked a little dehydrated.

Lu Hai was about to help it untie the fishing net, but at this moment Zhao Youxue shouted: "Be careful, tortoiseshell is very fierce."

When Lu Hai touched it, the tortoiseshell still had the strength to struggle. Its neck was relatively long, so it was possible to be bitten if it was careless for a while. Seeing the sharp mouth like an eagle's beak, Lu Hai couldn't help wiping away his cold sweat.

But to fishermen, all sharp teeth and sharp mouths are paper tigers, so Lu Hai directly took out a piece of cloth and covered its head.

Tortoiseshell became honest in an instant.

Then, Lu Hai carefully tore off the fishing nets hanging on its limbs and the turtle's back, just when Lu Hai was about to release it.

Zhao Youxue said: "Don't worry, the sea turtle has no gills, so it can only surface to breathe. If it is released in this state, it will not have the strength to swim, and it will suffocate to death in the sea."

Lu Hai scratched his head in embarrassment, as expected, he was at a disadvantage for being uneducated.

Zhao Youxue walked to the turtle and poured sea water on its body for about half an hour.

The tortoiseshell's eyes also gradually brightened. At this time, Zhao Youxue lowered her head and said, "Can you give me two seafood, and I'll feed it."

Lu Hai took out the smallest stone crab and the small grouper from the bag for her.

Zhao Youxue put the food near the tortoise's mouth, and after a while, the tortoise opened its mouth to eat them. At this moment, Lu Hai felt that the waves were getting closer and closer to them. Depending on the situation, the tide had already started to rise again.

"We should go."

"Can you take care of it for a while?"

"No." Lu Hai said coldly.

Now that they themselves are mud bodhisattvas, they can't protect themselves, so they don't have the mood to take care of other animals. It's not bad to be able to do so much for this tortoiseshell turtle.

But Lu Hai thought about it, it was because the hawksbill turtle was an endangered protected animal, if not, maybe he would really pick it up and sell it for money.

After Lu Hai finished speaking, he picked up the roll of gillnet, turned and walked towards the shore, while Zhao Youxue looked at the tortoiseshell reluctantly, and as Lu Hai got farther and farther away from him, he could only follow.

The rising tide is fast.

The turtle was submerged in a short while, and as the sea rushed towards it, it also plunged into the waves and swam towards the deep water.

When it reached a safe place, the hawksbill turtle poked out of the sea, looked at the two moving light sources on the shore with both eyes, and then swam around happily a few times, as if to say thank you.

But this scene.

It was impossible for Lu Hai and Zhao Youxue to see it.

After returning to the tunnel.

Lu Hai immediately ended the life of the moray eel, dug up the sea urchins, and took out the black internal organs.

The edible part of sea urchin is the bile yellow inside. If the internal organs are cooked together, the taste will become very fishy.

Lu Hai once saw some tourists catch sea urchins, cook them whole and eat them. After breaking open the sea urchins, the insides were black, yellow and smelly, just like a pile of shit.

The fishermen here like to use it to steam eggs. There is a dish of steamed eggs with sea urchin that is quite famous. Unfortunately, he doesn't have any eggs at hand now, otherwise he could really steam two to eat.

After picking the black offal.

Lu Hai placed sea urchins around the iron pot, then stacked oyster snails and mussels in the middle, and finally Lu Hai also killed two blue crabs and orchid crabs with a knife.

If the crabs are steamed directly without killing them, it is easy to break their hands and feet. Although it does not affect the eating, it is not good-looking.

After killing.

Lu Hai put the four crabs on top. In their place, seafood generally doesn't need to be processed, just steam it directly. The seafood taste itself is very sweet.

After placing it.

Lu Hai put the whole pot of seafood on the fire, without even adding water, and just baked it like this. During this time, Lu Hai continued to process the moray eel.

In their place, the eels are usually bought by the factory, made into Kabayaki eels and sold to various Japanese food stores. Lao Lu's factory has developed such a business.

After Lu Hai cut the eel in half, he skewered the eel meat with a reed pole near the tunnel, and set it about half a meter above the fire to start roasting.

Barbecue is a technical job.

If it is too close to the fire, it is easy to burn, and the surface is covered with all kinds of ash. If it is too far away, the heat will not be enough, so it must be moderate.

After Lu Hai finished handling the conger eels, there was a squeak sound from the iron pot. The mussels and sea oyster snails slowly opened their mouths, spit out the sea water inside, and touched the boiling bottom of the pot. It boiled directly.

At this time, the body of the crab also began to turn red slowly, and the smell of seafood kept coming over, making Zhao Youxue swallowed.

Due to her family relationship, many fishermen have always sent seafood to their home, so she couldn't finish all kinds of seafood from childhood to adulthood.

She thought she was tired of eating, but after seeing this pot of seafood, she actually had a desire to eat very much. She was very thirsty, but her mouth was still dripping with water.

She felt like she couldn't hold back anymore.

I want to eat, I really want to eat.

After about 5 minutes like this, Lu Hai gave her a pair of chopsticks made of reed sticks, and then gave her a few open-mouthed mussels.

"Try it and see how it tastes."

Zhao Youxue didn't like makeup or dressing up, but she had no resistance to delicious food, so she ate it unceremoniously. When she picked up the shell, there was still a little juice in it, and she poured it directly into her mouth.

Salty.

sweet.

It smells like the sea, very fresh.

Then slowly put the shellfish into the mouth. The moment you bite it down, it is very soft, just like biting on tofu, and the meat inside is very elastic.

Soft and soft, the teeth are served comfortably. The overall taste is very good. I don't know if it is because she is too hungry. She feels that the taste of this mussel is simply amazing!

Four stars!
After eating one, she couldn't help but want to eat the second one. In less than 2 minutes, she finished her mussels, and then looked at the one in front of Lu Hai with her hands next to her mouth. .

"Cough cough."

After Lu Hai glanced at her, he frowned and asked, "Why, it doesn't suit your taste, and I still want to lose weight."

Zhao Youxue was speechless for a moment.

You steel-headed Scorpio man!
Miss Ben wants to eat!
