There is a big mountain to the west and a large lake with a radius of a hundred miles to the east.
The lake is very rich in aquatic products. Fishermen gathered here and it became a fishing village.
There are many precious aquatic products in Shantou Village, the best of which is jade crystal fish.
The whole body of this fish is like crystal, and the most amazing thing is the fish bones.
The bones of the jade crystal fish are as warm as jade and can be used as medicine to detoxify.
Because jade crystal fish are precious, fishermen want to catch them, resulting in fewer and fewer jade crystal fish.
This world has no concept of protecting rare animals, nor does it know that overfishing is harmful.
A middle-aged man was leading a donkey, and sitting on it was a little girl with a pale face.
The middle-aged man wore a tattered hat, rags, and tattered shoes.
The man walked to the entrance of the village and looked up at the business travelers coming and going.
Because the aquatic products in Shantou Village Lake are precious, many people come here to buy aquatic products.
In ancient times, there was no way to preserve freshness, so fish was usually dried and sold.
As soon as we entered the village, a fishy smell hit our nostrils.
"Fire scale fish, fire scale fish..."
"White turtle, white turtle, take a look at the shell of the white turtle..."
"Lake shrimp, lake shrimp..."
There are fishermen and traders in the fishing village.
Vendors were shouting and selling on both sides of the street, and businessmen from outside kept coming to inquire about purchases, making the village very lively.
Dots of fishing boats are fishing on the lake, the setting sun is setting on the water, and water birds are flying across the sky. It looks very picturesque.
"The falling clouds and the solitary owl fly together, the autumn water is the same color as the sky..."
Long Chen was in a trance, and suddenly felt like he was back on the shores of Poyang Lake.
"Dad, are you interested in poetry again?"
Ya'er coughed twice on the donkey's back.
When they arrived at Shantou Village, Long Chen disguised himself as a middle-aged man, and Ya'er became Long Chen's daughter, a sick daughter.
"Just reciting a sentence casually."
"Let's go and help you find medicine."
Long Chen led the donkey to an ordinary inn.
The waiter saw Long Chen, glanced at Ya'er, and asked casually: "Are the guests staying at the hotel?"
Long Chen said: "Second brother, please give me a cheap guest room."
Long Chen helped Ya'er down, Ya'er coughed twice and a blush appeared on her pale face.
The waiter took another look at Ya'er and asked, "Is the guest here to see Jade Crystal Fish?"
Jade crystal fish detoxifies and has miraculous effects on frailty and difficult and complicated diseases.
Therefore, many people with illnesses that cannot be cured will come to Shantou Village to look for jade crystal fish.
Long Chen immediately asked: "Little brother, does he know where I can buy it?"
The waiter said helplessly: "Guest, to tell you the truth, seeing one jade crystal fish here every year is just luck from God."
"The price of jade crystal fish is higher than that of gold. Even if someone catches it, you can't buy it."
"Hey...this girl is quite handsome, what a pity."
The waiter saw that Ya'er's face was so pale, so he probably was hopeless.
He wanted to persuade Long Chen to forget it and not end up losing both his life and money.
But I couldn't say the words.
"But my little girl's illness..."
A hint of helplessness flashed in Long Chen's eyes.
The waiter stopped trying to persuade him and said, "Guest, come with me, and I will arrange a cheap room for you."
"I don't know when this jade crystal fish will appear, and I don't know how long you will stay here."
"I would like to give you a suggestion. If you have to wait for the jade crystal fish, you can find a waiter in the village to do it."
"It also saves customers from having to sit and eat. The small shop is still open for business. If the customer can't pay for the room and food, we can't keep you."
This waiter is quite kind-hearted.
The waiter took Long Chen to a small room, next to the woodshed.
“The room is a bit small, and it’s cheap, costing one penny a day.”
There is only one bed, one quilt and two pillows in the room.
There are not even tables or benches.
It's really crude enough.
"Thank you, little brother."
Long Chen quickly thanked him.
The waiter waved his hand and said: "Don't thank me, I work too. This room is not good. The rent is paid every day, so it won't be difficult for you."
Long Chen quickly and carefully took out a penny from his body and handed it to the waiter: "Thank you."
The waiter took the money, glanced at Ya'er again, shook his head and sighed, "I've seen several people like you."
After saying that, the waiter left.
After closing the door, Ya'er said in disgust: "This is too simple, how can I sleep?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "We are here to kill people, not to enjoy ourselves."
Ya'er curled her lips and said, "Who asked you to pretend to be a patient? If you pretend to be a businessman, we can stay in a good inn."
Long Chen said: "It's time for them to arrive. Let's go out for a walk."
Long Chen put the baggage on the bed and took the dagger and crossbow with him.
Ya'er hid a few bottles of poison and followed Long Chen out.
When they got to the street, Long Chen took Ya'er and pretended to ask about the whereabouts of the Jade Crystal Fish.
The reply I got was the same as the waiter's, they all said it depends on fate.
"This jade crystal fish is so precious. I have only heard of it before."
"Did you know that the elixir I refined for you included jade crystal fish?"
"No wonder my wife is angry and calls me a prodigal."
When Long Chen was attacked by Ji Ba and was seriously injured, Ji Xianxian refined the Ice Clear Pill, which contained Jade Crystal Fish.
Long Chen laughed in a low voice: "Don't you just want money?"
Ya'er said contemptuously: "You know you voted for me for free."
Long Chen gave a vulgar look, and Ya'er whispered: "Vulgar, shameless!"
After looking around, everyone said that jade crystal fish is hard to find and depends on luck.
Long Chen and Ya'er found a stall to sit down and eat noodles.
"Boss, I want a red fish."
Shantou Village is rich in aquatic products and has many delicious fish.
Ya'er is greedy and wants to try the red fish, which is famous for its deliciousness.
The owner of the stall was stunned and asked: "Do you want to eat red fish?"
Long Chen immediately said: "Just have some red fish soup."
The boss smiled and said: "I'm telling you, you still eat red fish like this."
"Little girl, a red fish is worth one tael of gold, which is very expensive."
"Besides, I can't afford to sell it at this stall."
Long Chen smiled and said: "It's funny, I'm greedy, just two bowls of noodles."
The boss brought over two bowls of noodles, and Ya'er ate them listlessly.
Long Chen whispered: "When the work is done, you can eat whatever you want."
Ya'er teased the noodles with her chopsticks aggrievedly and stopped eating after only one bite.
I was used to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas at Wangqing Pavilion, but following Long Chen for the past two days was quite boring.
Ya'er found the noodles unpalatable, but the stall's business was very good.
Because in addition to being rich in aquatic products, Shantou Village is also a transit point from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty to Nanliang.
Many people settled here, had a good meal, and took a boat at the mouth of the lake to follow a big river southward and enter the river.
Then it drifted down the river to Jinling.
"They have such a good appetite that they can eat everything."
Ya'er muttered, using two chopsticks to roll up the slim body like knitting a sweater.
In front, two men dressed as businessmen came from a distance.
One is slightly chubby, and the other looks frail and old-fashioned.
Long Chen tapped his finger on the table and said, "Is it those two?"
Ya'er put down the chopsticks she was playing with, turned her head and glanced at it, then quickly turned back and concentrated on playing with the noodles.
"It's them."
Ya'er coughed slightly.
