Chapter 351 Scorpion
The Yang family compound has been abandoned for decades, and the ruins are full of broken bricks and tiles.

Therefore, this place has become a paradise for insects. Due to the special environment, there are a lot of scorpions here. Villagers often come here to catch scorpions and make some medicinal wine. It is said that the scorpion wine has the effect of nourishing rheumatism.

"Can scorpions really be eaten?" Huang Qiang asked Zhang Feng suspiciously.

"Hehe, of course, the scorpion is fried in oil, and it tastes super good!" Zhang Feng smiled and understood Huang Qiang's doubts very well. Thinking back to his childhood, he was uneasy when he ate scorpions for the first time, but in the end he was still oiled. Fried scorpions, tempted by the aroma, have embarked on the road of no return for foodies.

"I only ate locusts before, but I never thought scorpions could be eaten!" Huang Qiang shook his head in disbelief.

"Hehe, what is this? I heard that there are people in Guangdong who eat live mice!" Zhang Yi interjected with a smile.

Everyone knows that Guangdong Province is the big food province in China. Locusts and sparrows are too small a case to eat. Not long ago, Zhang Feng saw a video on the Internet. A cage of mice was directly scalded with boiling water, and then The depilatory hair removal made Zhang Feng feel disgusted at that scene. I really don’t know how there are such dirty things as human mice. If it were voles, mountain mice Zhang Feng could barely accept it, but house mice would be too scary, dirty It was indescribably dirty, just thinking about it made Zhang Feng's scalp tingle.

"The people in Guangdong Province are all strong people, how can we compare with others!" Huang Qiang smiled, everyone knows that Guangdong Province is strong.

"Come, come, come!!! Each person will be given a set of equipment!" Zhang Yi opened the bucket with a smile, and gave each person a wide-mouth plastic bottle and a pair of bamboo chopsticks.

Among them, the chopsticks are of course used to catch scorpions, which is very convenient for everyone to use. Even if it is the first time to catch scorpions, as long as you have chopsticks, you can quickly learn the skills of catching scorpions.

As for the plastic bottle, it is used to keep the scorpion in. After the scorpion is caught, just put it inside and tighten the lid, and the scorpion cannot escape with its wings.

"Come on, let's go in and look for it..." Zhang Feng turned on the flashlight, called Huang Qiang and Yiyi, and walked towards the ruins.

Scorpions are nocturnal animals. They like tides and are afraid of being dry, and they like darkness and are afraid of strong light stimulation.Likes to live in groups, very quiet and not moving, and has the habit of recognizing nests and groups,
Most scorpions live together in fixed nests.Generally, in a group of scorpion nests, there are mostly males and females, big and small, living in harmony and rarely killing each other.But if it is not for the scorpions in the same nest, they will often kill each other after they meet, and they will never die until one party competes for the right to live in the nest.

A few people stepped on the broken bricks and tiles, and there was a clicking sound, which was extremely clear in the silent night.

"Ouch!" Suddenly Huang Qiang exclaimed, and Zhang Feng quickly moved the flashlight, only to realize that a tile had been broken by stepping on it. Maybe Huang Qiang was a little nervous, so he made a sound.

"Cousin, are your feet okay?" Yiyi immediately asked concerned.

"It's okay! It's okay!" Huang Qiang quickly waved his hand.

"It's fine, you follow me first, and see how I catch it, and after you learn it, you can do it yourself!" Zhang Feng said to Brother Qiang and Yiyi with a slight smile.

"Scorpions generally live in caves under bricks and rubble. There are a lot of scorpions here. You can definitely find them if you search carefully."

"Let's look here first. To catch a scorpion, you need to master the skills. You must catch its tail needle. Don't be stung by his tail needle, otherwise you will be as red, swollen and painful as being stung by a bee. Although it won't be fatal, it's also uncomfortable, and it will take about a day or two for the swelling to subside and recover." Zhang Feng taught them how to catch scorpions while searching.

"Chopsticks are the tools we use to catch scorpions. With them, as long as we pay a little attention, we will be fine." Zhang Feng raised the chopsticks in his hand and said with a smile.

"Everyone, don't underestimate these chopsticks. They are sharp tools for catching scorpions. With them, even a three-year-old child in the village can catch them accurately." Zhang Feng said with a chuckle;
Huang Qiang and Yiyi looked at the familiar chopsticks and nodded, thinking in their hearts that everyone has used these chopsticks countless times and practiced them every day. Using them to catch scorpions must be very useful. As long as you know how to use chopsticks, you will definitely learn it;
Scorpions like tides and are afraid of dryness, like darkness and are afraid of light, so scorpions generally don't live in places exposed to direct sunlight, but live in dark and damp caves or under bricks and stones;

"Wow! There is a nest here!" After Zhang Feng removed two broken bricks, a nest of five or six scorpions suddenly appeared in front of the three of them;
The scorpion under the stone was irradiated by the flashlight, and immediately panicked, ready to flee in all directions, but Zhang Feng would not give them such a chance, the chopsticks in his hand opened and closed quickly, and finally chased all the way, and finally took advantage of the chaos to escape the scorpion They were also caught one by one, and the whole nest of scorpions was caught by Zhang Feng in one go, without a single fish slipping through the net;
Seeing Zhang Feng's proficient movements, like flowing clouds and flowing water, the two of them were dumbfounded and amazed, wondering what the hell is this?Catching scorpions can capture such an artistic sense, and the two people who watched them were inexplicably horrified.

………………

After watching for a while, the two of them were full of confidence, and started out, holding a flashlight, and followed Zhang Feng to carefully search for traces of the scorpion on the ground.

"Ah! I found it too!" Suddenly hearing Huang Qiang's exclamation, Zhang Feng smiled. It was the first time that Brother Qiang found Scorpion, and he was overwhelmed with excitement.

"Brother Qiang, hurry up and catch him?" Seeing that the scorpion was about to run away, Zhang Feng quickly reminded him.

"Oh! Don't run! Don't run..." Hearing Zhang Feng's reminder, Huang Qiang came to his senses and hurriedly caught the fleeing scorpions. They caught all the scorpions, but unfortunately this was obviously impossible. In the last nest, only two scorpions were caught, and the rest disappeared into the night.

However, the first shot yielded a reward, Huang Qiang was still very happy, looking at the two shoes in the bottle, he laughed.

…………

"Crazy, come and help... Come and help!" Suddenly Yiyi also found a nest of scorpions, saw the scorpions running all over the ground, and asked Zhang Feng for help in a hurry.

Zhang Feng ran over quickly, and the two of them surrounded the scorpions together, but unfortunately the ground was full of caves, Zhang Feng only caught two, and the nest of scorpions disappeared without a trace.

"Hmph! You ran so fast, my aunt just caught one!" Liu Yiyi puffed her mouth and said a little unhappily.

"Hehe, it's okay, it's great to be able to catch the scorpion for the first time. When Zhang Yi caught the scorpion for the first time, he was so frightened that the scorpion screamed!" Zhang Feng smiled and comforted Yiyi.

"Brother, is there someone like you who can bury people?" Zhang Yi lay innocently on his gun, protesting dumbfoundingly.

"Hey, am I not telling the truth?" Zhang Feng said with a smile.

Hearing Zhang Feng's words, Zhang Yi wanted to cry, but almost fainted. He shook his head and sighed, and continued to search for the scorpion on his own.
