Chapter 28: Get

Tongzi's mechanical voice had a hint of urgency, and Xu Yinyin's eyes lit up when she heard it, and her whole body became hot with excitement.

"Where is it?" she asked impatiently, her eyes starting to look around.

Tongzi: [Please host collect two loaches!]

loach?

The corner of Xu Yinyin's mouth twitched slightly, wow, what did she think it was, that she was asked to catch a loach?

Where did the loach come from?

Thinking like this, Xu Yinyin turned her head and set her sights on the pit.

The bottom of the pit was full of sludge, and water seeped out of the bottom of the pit that had been scooped out just now. There was nothing visible in the dark pit.

She doesn't know how to catch loaches either.

Xu Yinyin immediately pulled Xu Dajun, who had already lay down to rest on the spot, to wash her hands and said, "Brother, please help me."

Xu Dajun opened one eye and looked at her, "What are you doing? I'm going to be sleepy for a while."

Xu Yinyin suppressed her excitement and said: "You dug a hole last night and brought out the mud. Did you find any loaches? Help me catch two loaches!"

Catching loaches?

The corner of Xu Dajun's mouth twitched, "I was busy looking for water last night. It was pitch black. Who would pay attention to whether there were loaches? No, you're fine. Why are you catching loaches? Are you crazy about hunger? I'm so hungry. I'm thinking in my head.

I definitely want to eat meat. It’s better for you to think about eating loach! Have you forgotten that you are allergic to river fish?”

Mentioning this, Xu Yinyin was speechless. Most others were allergic to seafood, but she was not only allergic to seafood, but also allergic to river fish, which was terrible.

Except for meat, she can't eat any shrimp, crab, fish, etc.!

It was okay when she was a child, but when she grew up and moved to the city, she was really greedy for the variety of delicious food.

This is very speechless!

But now is not the time to talk about this. Not to mention that she is allergic to seafood and seafood, even meat, she can’t eat it even if she wants to!

"You and dad both have golden fingers, and so do I! Maybe mom has golden fingers too!"

Xu Yinyin's words made Xu Dajun sit up in shock. He said excitedly: "You have it too? What is it? Clairvoyance and ears. According to this theory, are you the nose of a barking dog? Or do you speak like a golden mouth?"

Or Shadowless Foot? One Yang Finger?”

Xu Yinyin glared at him, "You have a stupid nose!"

"I just want to speak the Dharma and open the mouth of the golden mouth. In that case, if I say water, there will be water, and if I say food, there will be food. How awesome is that?"

"But my golden finger is almost the same! The animal and plant exchange system! Isn't it amazing? As long as I give it the animals and plants it wants, it can exchange it for anything I want!"

Xu Dajun was stunned for a while after hearing this. Sure enough, his heart was itching, "Awesome! Can I exchange these golden fingers? I want this from you too!"

Xu Yinyin gave him a blank look, "Come on, it's great to have it. Do you still want to choose by yourself?"

"Okay, you idiot, hurry up and catch a loach for me! Our area is dry and locusts are passing through. We can't see any green things. We finally get a loach, so we have to seize this opportunity."

!”

Xu Dajun also knew that this matter was very important, so he didn't care about rest at the moment. He got up and went to find Xu Sanlang and Zhang Sanlang.

The two siblings muttered something and no one paid attention to it. Old Mrs. Xu only glanced at it and didn't pay attention. The daughters-in-law all went to grab food. She, the old lady, didn't go and stayed at home.

The cart was motionless.

In the blink of an eye, the little grandson went to find his third brother and cousin in a hurry. Then the three boys muttered something, and then watched the three boys come to the edge of the pit, grab the rope and slide down.

.

Mrs. Xu looked twice and couldn't sit still. When she saw the old man sitting leaning against the cart, she felt relieved. She got up and walked over here, "Sanlang Liulang, what are you doing?"

"Catch the loach!" Xu Sanlang, who was last, responded.

"Catch loaches?" Mrs. Xu glanced down and couldn't help but murmured, "You brats are not too tired, how can you still be energetic enough to catch loaches?"

Then he shouted down: "Rokuro, be careful!"

After saying that, he turned around and went back to the cart. Looking at old man Xu who was concentrating with his eyes closed, he couldn't help but mutter about this matter.

Old man Xu immediately opened his eyes, "Loach?"

There was water at the bottom of the pit, and it was all wet mud. There must be loaches there!

Although this thing is not delicious, it is edible at least, and it is much better than bark grass roots!

They had salt and found water. It would be great if they could cook a pot of loach soup and drink some for each person!

He hadn't thought about it yet, but he didn't expect that his grandson was the smarter one. Old Xu couldn't sit still and hurried to the pit, "How is Liulang? Are you there?"

Underneath, Xu Dajun and three others were digging through the mud with their bare hands, digging into the mud with their hands to touch for loaches.

Listening to the questions above, Xu Dajun raised his head and replied, "Not yet!"

Old man Xu thought for a while, turned around and went to find Zhou Chuan.

When Zhou Chuan was a boy, he was the most sturdy monkey. Going up the mountains to dig out bird's nests and going down to the rivers to fish for fish and shrimps were what he was best at.

The fish pond in their village catches fish every year at the end of the year, and Sichuan is always there to catch the fish on Tuesday.

After listening to Old Man Xu's words, Zhou Chuan happily rolled up his sleeves and came to the pit.

Although loaches are not delicious, and they didn't eat them well in the past, at this point, they don't eat anything.

Everyone gathered around the pit, waiting to see if Zhou Chuan and his men could catch the loach.

Compared to Xu Dajun and the other three who were messing around, Zhou Chuan was obviously better at it. He asked someone to light a torch. Even though it was dawn, the bottom of the pit was still not as bright as the top.

With the torch illuminated, Zhou Chuan looked around at the loach nests.

Finally, I spotted one. I went down with both hands and peeled away the mud a few times. With my quick eyes and quick hands, I grabbed the loach and wrapped it in the mud and fished it out into the barrel.

Then the mud was cleaned out in the barrel, leaving a writhing loach.

Xu Dajun and the other three were responsible for the attack. When they were tired, they rested and continued. They stayed at the bottom of the pit for most of the morning, and finally climbed up panting.

It was accompanied by a wooden barrel, with a layer of loaches spread on the bottom of the barrel, and there were about thirty of them.

During this period, Xu Chunhe and others also went down once, scooped out the water stored in the round pit again, and loaded up two buckets of muddy water.

Xu Dajun and others washed their hands full of mud with the muddy water and sat down to rest.

"We'll go down later and see if we can catch some more," Tuesday Chuan said to Old Man Xu.

Old man Xu nodded and looked at these thirty-odd loaches. If they were cooked, they could make a pot of soup.

However, we have to wait until the water is not so turbid.

Thinking like this, Old Man Xu looked at the water full of dirt. He didn't know how many times he had to clean it before the water would be better.

Right now, it seems that they will have to stay here for at least a few days.

At least because there is water here, Old Man Xu is not so anxious.

It was time to eat again, and Mrs. Xu was beginning to distribute the dry food. The other families were also busy with their own work, and no one paid attention to the pit.

Xu Yinyin and Xu Dajun sneaked up to the bucket of loaches, with Xu Dajun covering them. Xu Yinyin quickly asked Tongzi in her mind, "How can I collect it for you?"

Tongzi: [The host only needs to touch the loach with his hand]

Xu Yinyin did as she was told and put her hand into the bucket. Soon, she found that the loach next to her disappeared out of thin air in the blink of an eye. After two of them connected, she withdrew her hand.

Then I heard a sound of radio waves in my head.

After a moment, Tongzi's voice sounded:

[Congratulations to the host, you got two exchange opportunities]
