The water surface of the Peterson River is wide, and the waves are sparkling when the breeze blows. Under the calm water surface, just like the quiet depths of the forest, there are countless murderous intentions hidden.
A water eel more than ten meters long had just had a feast and was swimming slowly to digest its food. It unsuspectingly swam into a school of small fish that were only as long as a finger.
The small fish exposed teeth that were extremely out of proportion to its body, and surrounded the water eel to eat wildly. After more than ten seconds, only a complete skeleton was left of the water eel, which slowly sank to the bottom of the river and was covered by the mud.
After a full meal, the small school of fish drifted lazily with the current, but they were entangled by carnivorous aquatic plants. The fate of water eels also befell them. Soon the fish were sucked dry by carnivorous aquatic plants and turned into fertilizer, and the aquatic plants were in turn eaten by dugong beasts.
Uproot it and swallow it into your belly...
The food chain is interlocked, and the weak and the strong take place all the time in the water. No one knows whose belly the winner just now will die in the next second.
It was thrilling under the water, but there was harmony on the surface. A beautiful wooden boat sailed quietly on the river.
With the escort of donuts, the rafting trip went extremely smoothly. Except for the occasional blind high-level water beast that automatically delivered food to the door, the four of them did nothing but eat and sleep all day long, and they even began to feel bored.
At this moment, Cui Tianxiao stared at the water crab beast in front of him with a constipated expression on his face.
"Xing, is this thing really edible?"
Not to mention Cui Tianxiao's doubts, even Ye Qingting and Qi Ming felt that they couldn't keep their mouths shut when faced with such an ugly water crab.
“Not only is it edible, it’s also a great supplement. If you don’t believe me, you’ll regret it!”
Although the water horseshoe crabs are ugly, they are similar to facehuggers, but their crystals are small in size and have limited purification effect on the energy of chaos, so the water horseshoe crabs have very high requirements for the living environment. This also makes the water horseshoe crabs very demanding.
The meat is extremely delicious, and it is a delicacy after simply boiling it in salt water.
The Shennong Cauldron was steaming, and inside were large and small water horseshoe crabs with rugged shells, which made one's scalp numb just by looking at them.
Li Xing picked it up from left to right, and picked the largest one. He used his thumbs to lift open the round carapace with serrated spines, revealing the steaming horseshoe crab meat inside.
Cui Tian's smiling face turned green when he saw the shelled water horseshoe crab: "Ugh——"
Ye Qingting, with quick hands and eyes, covered Cui Tianxiao's mouth to prevent him from spitting it out. At the same time, he also felt extremely uncomfortable in his stomach.
Originally, the shape of the intact water crab was weird and off-putting, but after opening the shell, there were yellow, black, brown, and lumps of debris and mud-like stuff inside, which looked nothing like it.
The meat looked like shit. If Li Xingzheng hadn't eaten spoonful after spoonful with gusto, Ye Qingting would have thought it was a lame prank.
In the blink of an eye, the plate-sized water crab was eaten by Li Xing. She threw the empty shell away, opened another one, and ate happily.
Li Xing could see the disgusted and horrified expressions of her friends, but she had never been a sharer when it came to delicious food.
I have made it clear, whether you like to eat or not, everyone is so familiar with it anyway, it is embarrassing to charge money for eating, it is better not to eat, and all the money saved belongs to her.
In the live broadcast room.
//Holy shit! This live broadcast room is still there? I've been back and forth several times, and every time I thought they were going to die, but they still persist until now? I knew I wouldn't leave here, I feel sorry for my money...//
//Boys, I just came in and don’t understand the situation. When did the competition change to mukbang?//
//What's cooking in the pot? It looks disgusting!//
//This thing is called a water horseshoe crab. It is a very rare low-level water beast. I heard from my cousin who works at the Academy of Sciences that water horseshoe crabs have very high requirements for water quality, so the meat is very delicious. Water horseshoe crabs occupy three stars all year round.
The restaurant is at the top of the list. The pot they cooked is going to be sold in the restaurant and is worth hundreds of thousands of star coins.//
//Ahhhhhh, Li Xing’s food tastes so delicious, it makes me want to try it!//
//Administrator! Strongly request to activate the taste sharing function!//
Administrator: I can fuck you!
Qi Ming mustered up his courage and followed Li Xing's example, he also opened a water horseshoe crab, scooped out half a spoonful of horseshoe crab meat, and stuffed it into his mouth as if he was dead. The next second, his entire lips and teeth were occupied by the delicious aroma.
Ye Qingting and Cui Tianxiao saw Qi Ming's blue eyes light up for a moment, and then like Li Xing, he moved the spoons like flying, one for you and one for me, and soon half of the boiled horseshoe crab in the cauldron was gone.
"Brother Ye, don't, don't look, close your eyes and eat it, it's so delicious!"
After being advised to eat enough, Ye Qingting soon joined the team of gluttons. Seeing his friends immersed in eating, Cui Tianxiao gradually became shaken.
According to past experience, Li Xing's words were correct, but he could not accept such an ugly star beast because of his morbid appearance. Before he could make up his mind, there was only the last water horseshoe crab left in the cauldron.
.
Before Li Xing's claws arrived, Ye Qingting grabbed the last one. Seeing the silly Cui Tianxiao, Ye Qingting softened and decided to give him the last water horseshoe crab.
"Ah Xiao, this is the last one. Listen to my brother's advice and give it a try, otherwise you will regret it for the rest of your life."
Cui Tianxiao stiffened his neck, holding back the word "no", took the water crab, and took a sip under the longing and envious gazes of Li Xing and Qi Ming.
"Fuck, t--!"
Cui Tianxiao's world view collapsed. Who would have thought that such an ugly and disgusting water beast could be so delicious!
As a result, the three of them saw an unforgettable scene. After Master Cui devoured the horseshoe crab meat, he not only licked the meat foam off the inner wall of the shell, but also poured some hot water into the horseshoe crab shell to rinse it with.
.
Seeing Cui Tianxiao looking directly at the pile of leftover horseshoe crab shells, Ye Qingting hurriedly threw the horseshoe crab shells out of the boat before he did anything disgraceful.
"Star--!" Cui Tian laughed with tears streaming down his face, hugged Li Xing's calf, and acted shamelessly cute. "Brother, I haven't eaten enough. Let's catch a few more!"
Li Xing pulled back his leg mercilessly and gave him a big eye roll.
"Do you think that water horseshoe crabs are the same as carp beasts and are found all over the river? Water horseshoe crabs have no nests and follow the current. They only stop briefly in places with the best water quality and only come up to the surface for air once a year. We happened to catch them
You are extremely lucky to live in a group. Whether you can catch it again in this life depends on your fate. They said that if you don't eat it, you will regret it for the rest of your life. How about it? I guess I was right!"
Cui Tianxiao understood. Judging from the life habits of the water horseshoe crab, he may never have the opportunity to taste it in this life. It is really hard to buy with money. If you had known it!
Qi Ming looked at Cui Tianxiao with a smile, and was about to finish the attack when he suddenly felt a huge impact from the talisman formation at the bottom of the boat. Qi Ming's face changed drastically and he shouted loudly:
"There's an enemy attack——! Everyone, hold on to the ship!"
Li Xing reacted very quickly. He held the side of the ship with his left hand and held Cui Tianxiao with his right hand.
As soon as Qi Ming finished speaking, there was a loud "boom" and the wooden boat was hit into the air by a terrifying force. The wooden boat disintegrated in the air and turned into a pile of fragments scattered on the water.
