Looking at the white clouds chasing the sun on the horizon, Zhang Ye felt the early spring wind blowing on the earth. A look of self-blame flashed in his eyes; his sister's blame made Zhang Ye sigh deeply.
Looking in the direction of the Beast Forest, Zhang Ye said guiltily, "Xiaoyi, I'm sorry."
With tears in her eyes, Zhang Yi said apologetically, "Brother, my sister is too willful!!! I'm sorry for making you worry about me."
Leaving behind a few words, Zhang Yi once again looked at the only road leading from Dongfeng Village to the Beast Forest, and left with the same disappointment as usual.
Looking at Zhang Yi's lonely and sad back, Zhang Ye kept shaking his head and sighing, and followed Zhang Yi closely.
Qiu Qingran, whom Zhang Yi was concerned about, was catching fish in the stream upstream of Luohe River.
Various fish were thrown to the shore from the simple fishing spears made by Qiu Qingran.
A fish was swimming freely and carefree one meter away from Qiu Qingran. The wooden harpoon was quickly inserted into the fish. When the wooden harpoon entered the water, it made a clear "pop-dong" sound, and ripples in the water rippled.
Come.
Qiu Qingran put the wooden fork on his shoulders and walked towards the shore. Under the sun, he showed a sincere and childlike smile and said, "Fish, fish, you are so naughty!!"
After catching more than a dozen fish of different types, Qiu Qingran cleaned the fish and spent nearly an hour drilling wood to make fire and light a fire.
String the fish one by one and grill them on the fire.
When the fish is grilled, it makes a "sizzling" sound, and bursts of fish fragrance float in the air.
Qiu Qingran took out the salt from the empty ring and sprinkled it on the fish carefully, and the aroma suddenly became stronger.
The fragrance spreads ten miles away, and everywhere near the creek is filled with the scent of fish.
About five hundred meters away from Qiu Qingran, there was an old man with rosacea. His rosacea kept moving, "Sniff, sniff."
"Holy crap, there are delicious food to eat in the beast forest!!"
After saying this, the bad old man's stomach growled, he smiled evilly, and then he followed the place where the fish smell came from to look for it.
Qiu Qingran took the grilled fish off the grill, wrapped it in lotus leaves and placed it on the ground. He turned around and looked at the remaining grilled fish to prevent it from being burned.
Qiu Qingran couldn't finish these dozen grilled fish in one meal. The grilled fish wrapped in lotus leaves was originally intended to be put into the empty ring for dry food.
Qiu Qingran put the grilled fish wrapped in lotus leaves on the stone next to it, and turned to look at the other grilled fish.
At this time, a long bamboo pole was placed on the stone, and the hooked rope fell from the bamboo pole; the moment it hooked the grilled fish, the bamboo pole and the grilled fish disappeared instantly.
At the same time as the grilled fish disappeared, a bad old man held his nose with his right finger, his face full of excitement and saliva flowing; he gently opened the lotus leaf and saw five golden grilled fish inside.
His eyes were shining and he couldn't wait to eat.
Perhaps it was because the grilled fish was so delicious that the old man devoured it and made a "pop" sound in his mouth.
After Qiu Qingran heard this, he looked alert and quickly turned around and looked behind him.
I saw in the grass not far away, weeds half a man tall were constantly moving and swaying, and from time to time, some fish bones flew out from the grass.
In an instant, several black lines on Qiu Qingran's face continued to wander, and he approached the grass lightly.
Seeing an old man in shabby clothes eating grilled fish, Qiu Qingran became furious when he saw the grilled fish in old man's hand. He jumped behind him and shouted, "You old man, how dare you, a young man?"
You don’t want to mess with my grilled fish!!”
Qiu Qingran jumped out suddenly, which startled the old man. He almost had a fish bone stuck in his throat, and he kept coughing "cough, cough, cough".
After the operation was completed, the old man laughed and said, "Young man, this grilled fish is so delicious, can you order a few more?"
Qiu Qingran's face instantly darkened. The grilled fish he used to make dry food was actually eaten by the bad old man in front of him. What was even more disgusting was that he shamelessly wanted to eat it again.
"You don't even have the guts to grill fish, you damn old man."
Qiu Qingran was so angry that he was so embarrassed by the old man. Looking at his rogue appearance, he couldn't say anything.
In the end, Qiu Qingran turned back helplessly. When he turned around, perhaps because of his excessive movements, the jade token given to him by Luo Xiyan fell from his arms and fell to the ground, but he did not notice it.
When the old man saw the jade pendant with the word "Xi Yan" hanging on the ground, his eyes flashed, and with a slight smile on his lips, he reminded, "Young man, your jade pendant fell off."
Turning around, he saw white warm jade dripping quietly on the ground. Qiu Qingran quickly went back to pick up the jade pendant on the ground, looking very nervous, as if the jade pendant was very important to him.
At this time, his expression on the old man's face became slightly better, and he thanked him and said, "Old man, your reminder is the reward for stealing grilled fish."
The bad old man watched Qiu Qingran return to the fire in amusement, watched him wrap the grilled fish in lotus leaves and put it in the empty ring, and his saliva fell three thousand feet.
Unable to resist the temptation of delicious food, the old man chuckled and came to Qiu Qingran's side.
Squatting beside the fire, my mouth watered as I watched the grilled fish.
The bad old man looked at the grilled fish and said with a smile, "Look, young man, there is a green dragon over there."
Qiu Qingran subconsciously looked in the direction pointed by the old man, but saw nothing. He immediately turned back and saw that two grilled fish on the grill had disappeared. Qiu Qingran immediately cursed, "You old man, you
If you are stealing fish, I...I...I will throw away all the grilled fish."
Hearing that Qiu Qingran was about to throw away the grilled fish, the old man ran a few hundred meters away and came to Qiu Qingran in an instant. He said pitifully, "Young man, what a pity it is to throw away such a delicious grilled fish.
, it’s better to give me an advantage, don’t you think?”
Qiu Qingran was frightened by the speed of Old Man Zao. Although it was not far away, he could reach a few hundred meters in an instant. How much strength does this require?
Seeing the bad old man Qiu Qingran, an idea came to his mind, a cunning look flashed across his face, and he said, "Old immortal, there is nothing you can do if you want to eat the fish I grilled, but... it's just..."
Qiu Qingran hesitated to say the next words and didn't say them for a long time.
Now the bad old man was worried, and he said with a red face, "It's just what, kid, tell me quickly? I didn't know that old people can't be hung by others, it's easy to get hung up like this!!!"
Seeing that the old man took the bait, Qiu Qingran said in embarrassment, "You don't know, you old man! The reason why I..."
Before Qiu Qingran finished speaking, Xiao Qi woke up with a sweet smell and his stomach growling. He suddenly appeared next to the grilled fish rack, looked at Qiu Qingran pitifully and said, "
Father, father, I am hungry, I want to eat fish, I want to eat fish.”
Seeing Xiao Qi's appearance, the bad old man was so shocked that he forgot to eat the grilled fish in his hand. Then he showed a horrified expression and said dryly, "The Demon...Emperor..."
