The magical power covered the surrounding sea area for hundreds of meters. Han Peacock discovered that there were quite a few of those things, so when Han Peacock's magical power spread out, he discovered it immediately.
The body length of that thing is between 30-50cm. The back is dark gray or grayish white with yellow, and there are many obvious snake-eye-like markings. The surroundings of each marking are lighter in color, with a black circle inside, and the center is yellow.
There is a black spot, and a small wart protrudes from the spot, often arranged in irregular vertical rows.
Because of its supernatural perception, the perception is relatively delicate. The Korean peacock can clearly perceive that its mouth is located on the ventral surface, with 20 tentacles. The ventral surface is flat, light gray-brown, and densely populated with many irregularly arranged tube feet.
The dorsal bone fragments are mainly composed of traditional and simplified patterns; the intradermal bone fragments on the ventral surface are oval granules and grape-like patterns. It is because of these patterns that they look more scary, especially women. Seeing this
This kind of squirming insect is even more frightening, so no wonder Zhou Meiren was so excited when she saw it.
"Liu Catkin, look at this thing. Can you recognize it?" Han Peacock controlled the water flow and sent a bug in front of them.
Liu Xu glanced at Han Peacock, then turned to look at the insect. At this time, Zhou Meiren was no longer afraid. She hid behind Han Peacock and said, "Do you know Liu Xu?"
LiuXu hesitated and said, "Is this a sea cucumber?"
"Sea cucumber? How can a sea cucumber be so big? It's fifty or sixty centimeters long. Why have I never seen such a big sea cucumber?" Zhou Meiren said in disbelief.
Han Kongque said with a smile: "What you usually see are dried sea cucumbers. Those have been processed, and the size will naturally become smaller."
"Is this really a sea cucumber?" Liu Catkin asked.
Han Kongque said: "Of course it's a sea cucumber, this is white nicotine. The body wall of white nicotine is thick and soft, the body color is generally light, often white, and there are often different brown patterns on the back. There are about 10 species in the world, and there are already 10 species in China.
There are two types of white nicotine from Zhimu and white nicotiana, both of which are good for consumption. It seems that this should be nicotiana from snakehead, there are quite a few here. Let me grab some and use it to replenish you when I go back. You need to know this
But it’s good stuff.”
Liuxu said: "We are not in a hurry to eat, you'd better take care of it and cook it for us to eat!"
"Is it troublesome to deal with this thing?" Zhou Meiren asked.
Liu Xu said: "No trouble. However, fresh sea cucumbers are not as good as dried sea cucumbers. Although fresh sea cucumbers will lose some nutrients during working hours, in terms of human body absorption, dried sea cucumbers can absorb more nutrients.
Although fresh sea cucumbers have original flavor and no loss of nutrients, there is a thick layer of colloid on the outside, which contains all the nutrients. People cannot absorb it after eating it, and people with weak gastrointestinal problems may suffer from diarrhea after eating it.
.So we’ll wait until it’s processed into dried sea cucumbers before we eat them.”
Han Peacock hugged the two women, while using sea water to roll up the snake-eye white ginseng in the distance, and put it into the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag. At the same time, he said: "You will actually enjoy it."
Liuxu said: "That's natural. I just follow you and forget about everything else. As long as I eat, I'm extremely satisfied."
When Han Kongque heard this, he immediately became happy: "When I get back, I will process light-dried sea cucumbers for you. They are the best among sea cucumbers."
Zhou Meiren asked: "How to process it? How is it different from ordinary dried sea cucumbers?"
Han Peacock said with a smile: "Ask Liu Xu. This is the moment that tests a person's skills. If Liu Xu has read information about this, then she must know how to make it."
"Light-dried sea cucumber?" Although Zhou Meiren has eaten a lot of sea cucumbers, she really doesn't know what light-dried sea cucumbers are.
Han Kongque said: "Light-dried sea cucumber is a sea cucumber product that is processed by removing the internal organs of fresh sea cucumbers, cleaning, boiling, shrinking, and drying with low-temperature cold air. Light-dried sea cucumbers are the best among sea cucumber products. They are sugar-free and water-free, and are convenient.
Storage, I want to collect sea cucumbers, if you want to know, just ask Liu Catkin."
Zhou Meiren rolled her eyes at Han Kongque and said, "Even if you have read the information about the production of light-dried sea cucumbers, who would memorize it in their spare time?"
Han Kongque said: "You are underestimating Liuxu. Of course, it is not just Liuxu. As long as you are a specially trained spy, shorthand is a basic skill. If you don't believe me, just listen to Liuxu's statement."
Liu Xu also gave Han Peacock a roll of his eyes before saying: "He wants to confirm whether I have the ability to have photographic memory. Well, to satisfy your curiosity, if I remember correctly, it should be a bit troublesome.
The first step is to put the fresh raw materials in sea water or thin salt water to wash away the mucus attached to the surface.
Then use a hollow thin tube to enter through the anus, penetrate the head and pull out the internal organs, then use a brush to pass into the abdominal cavity, wash away the residual internal organs and sediment, or use a long knife to cut 3 cm on the back and tail and dig out
Wash the internal organs with dilute salt water.
Pour an appropriate amount of light salt water into the pot, heat it to boil and then add a little cold water to reduce the temperature to about 85c. Put the washed raw materials into the pot in batches according to size and cook for 1-2 hours until it is easy to insert bamboo chopsticks.
The inside of the meat is moderate.
During the cooking process, if you find raw materials with abdominal distension, insert a needle into the abdominal cavity, drain out the water and continue heating. If any bubbles appear, remove them at any time.
After taking it out and cooling, place it on a charcoal stove and bake it at 20-25c for 2 hours. After the surface water evaporates, dry it in the sun. Continue drying for 3-4 days by alternating between drying and sun-drying, until it is more than 50% dry.
The last step is to store the semi-dried sea cucumbers in a wooden box, surround them with clean straw or linen bags, seal them with a lid, steam them for 3-4 days, and then dry them in the sun, right?"
Seeing Liu Xu's proud look, Zhou Meiren said in surprise: "Did you really remember it after reading it once?"
Seeing Liu Xu nodding, Zhou Meiren said: "I am also considered a smart person, but compared to you two, I am far behind."
Han Peacock said with a smile: "You don't need to belittle yourself. Both of you are smarter than me. The reason why I have the ability to remember photographs is entirely because of my strong mental power. This is brought about by the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag, and
You two are really smart, especially Liuxu, this is a natural genius, I am a fake."
"No matter what, you are all geniuses, whether it is congenital or acquired." Zhou Meiren said.
Liu Xu saw that Zhou Meiren was a little disappointed, and she hurriedly said: "Didn't Han Kongque teach you that mind fasting method? You just think about it when you have nothing to do. As long as you keep practicing, you will reach our level sooner or later."
Zhou Meiren said: "It seems that I have to work hard, otherwise every time I am with you, I will act as if I am a fool, Alexander!"
Liu Xu smiled and said: "I said I would give you the Qiankun Bell, but you didn't want it. Do you regret it now? If you can make the Qiankun Bell recognize its owner, you may immediately have the ability to never forget your past. Do you want to try it?"
Zhou Meiren said: "I don't want your things."
"You don't want Han Peacock either?" Liu Xu pushed Han Peacock and said.
Zhou Meiren said: "He is not a thing."
Liuxu said seriously: "He is indeed not a thing."
Han Peacock stopped what he was doing at this time, because all the adult sea cucumbers that could be seen around him had been collected by him into the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag.
"You two, please don't hurt me here. I have been preparing Zhou Meiren's things for a long time, and now it's just the last step. When I get it, I'll see if it's what I thought. If it's really what I imagined,
In that case, it will be a national treasure." Han Kongque said a little proudly.
Liu Xu glanced at Han Peacock and said: "Looking at how proud you are, and it may be a national treasure, you have found the legendary national seal, right?"
"The Imperial Seal? Let's not even talk about whether we can find it or not. Even if we find it, is there still space inside it?" Zhou Meiren asked.
Han Kongque said: "I didn't say it was the Jade Seal of the State, but the thing I found is no different from the Jade Seal of the State. It's too early to say this now. I'd better wait until I find it in the future."
Zhou Meiren said: "Then I will wait. If you can't find it for me, I will really regret it. If I couldn't help but smash your head open, don't blame me for not reminding you."
"A woman's heart is the most poisonous." Han Peacock blurted out.
But he immediately felt the chill of these words, because two women simultaneously conducted anti-wear experiments on his body.
Seeing Han Peacock grinning in pain, the two women burst out laughing at the same time.
"Bug." Just when the two women were feeling proud, Han Peacock controlled a sea cucumber, penetrated the water curtain where they were, and appeared in front of the two women.
Suddenly, the laughter turned into screams, and Han Kongque naturally enjoyed the pleasure of being hugged by the warm and fragrant soft jade.
"Don't you want us to eat sea cucumbers in the future?" Seeing the sea cucumbers disappearing and knowing that they were taken into the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag by Han Peacock, Zhou Mei and Liu Xu quit at the same time.
Sea cucumbers are delicious to eat, but the appearance of live sea cucumbers is really unappealing.
Zhou Meiren said: "Why do I feel that the sea cucumber just now is more beautiful?"
Han Kongque said with a smile: "That's a plum blossom ginseng, which is much more popular than the snake-eye white ginseng."
"Why are there so many sea cucumbers here?" Liuxu asked strangely.
Han Kongque said: "This is because the deep sea we are in now is only thirty to forty meters, and plum blossom ginseng often inhabits the coral sand bottom with a few seagrasses at a depth of 20-45 meters. It is a deep-sea sea cucumber. The environment here is just right, so
It’s not surprising that plum blossom ginseng appears.”
"Catch another plum blossom ginseng and come over to see it." Zhou Meiren said.
Han Kongque said: "Plum blossom ginseng is shaped like a long cylinder, and the spines on the back are very large. The bases of each 3-11 spines are connected together, a bit like plum blossom petals, so people call it 'plum blossom ginseng', and because of its
Its appearance is a bit like a pineapple, and it is also called 'pineapple ginseng'. Plum blossom ginseng is not as fancy as snake-eye white ginseng, so it looks more pleasing to the eye."
Han Peacock grabbed a few more plum blossom ginseng and got closer to let the two women take a closer look.
"This is the king of sea cucumbers? He's bigger than the snake-eye white ginseng! It seems that he is well-deserved for his reputation." Looking at the three huge plum blossoms that are over 70 centimeters in size, Liuxu said in admiration. (To be continued)
