Chapter 119 Silverfish

Chapter 119 Silverfish
Although Feng Yan smiled and agreed, he was crying bitterly in his heart: "You are a person respected by His Majesty, in order to welcome you, the emperor ordered that every city in the waterways north of Lingnan treat you like a prince, I dare to keep everything simple! "

After welcoming Feng An into Yueyang City Governor's Mansion, Feng Yanxiao immediately went to Yueyang to discuss how to entertain Feng An.

Yueyang is poor, and the annual income is just some rent from farmers farming the land. In addition, the emperor has issued decrees many times to reduce the taxes of the people, and Yueyang is even poorer.

But when Feng An came, even if the mansion was demolished and sold for money, he had to entertain him well!By the way, Duke Xun is also playing by the Yueyang Lake, can you borrow some from him...

forget it!It would be great if the Duke of the State of Qin came here and wouldn't let me entertain him, and if he borrowed money from others, he would lose his old face!
.........

Leng Feng didn't know that Feng An and Sun Simiao had already entered Yueyang City, and at this time he was teaching Er Gouzi their diving skills.

"After entering the water, don't breathe through your nose, use your mouth! Breathe through the reeds, and then exhale through your mouth. This way, you can last more time underwater."

Leng Feng taught on the shore, while Huang Zerui demonstrated in the water.

Shiliu Niu pinched the reed pipe and laughed loudly: "It's very simple! Look at me!"

After speaking, he didn't go into the deep water, but just held the reed in the shallow water and plunged his head into the water.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Shiliu Niu coughed crazily as soon as he entered the water, stood up quickly, covered his nose and howled, looking miserable.

"Hahahaha" the officers and soldiers of the Dragon Tooth Army on the shore all laughed, the tragic situation of sixteen cows running down their noses was really self-inflicted.

Er Gouzi said: "I understand. Although the reason is simple, we are used to breathing through our noses after all, and we will not be able to change the habit for a while. After entering the water, we still want to breathe through our noses."

Leng Feng patted Er Gouzi on the shoulder and said: "People's habits are the most harmful. It's like a swordsman who is used to using a sword. When he suddenly uses a sword, he will only chop. It is very difficult to change the habit. Let me ask you, if you hold chopsticks with your left hand, can you pick up vegetables?"

Er Gouzi shook his head immediately: "That's not okay, I'm used to using my right hand."

"Look, this is a habit. In the same way, you can use the triangular thorn with your right hand very well, but what if your right hand is injured and you can't hold a weapon?"

Er Gouzi slapped his head: "Boss, do you want me to start practicing the left-hand triangular stab right now?"

Leng Feng nodded, then pulled out the three-edged thorn and said, "Look out!"

After finishing speaking, the triangular thorn spun rapidly in Leng Feng's left hand, sometimes tumbling up and down, and sometimes stabbing straight forward, there was no difference from when it was used with the right hand.

Er Gouzi also pulled out his own three-edged thorn, and handed it to his left hand to play, but after only two turns, he almost pierced his hand.

"This thing can't be practiced overnight. You should learn to swim first, and then practice in your spare time."

"Okay!" Er Gouzi put down the three-edged thorn, and began to practice swimming in the water.

Leng Feng saw that the soldiers of the Dragon Tooth Army were swimming in the water, so he climbed up the tree and continued to stare at the lake with a sniper lens. Sometimes crocodiles can't be seen without looking closely. In order to prevent the Dragon Tooth Army from feeding the crocodile Tragic, Leng Feng could only concentrate on looking at the lake.

Leng Feng was watching from the tree on the bank, and Huang Zerui was on guard at the junction of deep water and shallow water, so that it could be regarded as foolproof.

In the midst of the tumbling water, a group of landlubbers like the Longya Army were transforming into sharks.

When you are by the lake, you will naturally have fish to eat.

The smell of human sweat easily attracts fish, including silverfish.

There is a guy in the Qing Dynasty who recorded: Fish produced in Dongting Lake Junshan waters, (that is Yueyang Lake in the above text, Dongting Lake had many names in Tang Dynasty, Yunmeng, Jiujiang, Chonghu... Let’s change it back to Dongting Lake below, everyone in the province doesn’t know where it is, hereby stated).

This is just a joke, there are many on the shore of the lake!It is probably because too many people were attracted after it was developed, and the whitebait was eaten so that only the ones near Junshan were left.

Whitebait is round and strip-shaped, about 1 to 3 inches long, with black spots on the eyes, no scales, silvery white and transparent, like a silver shuttle in the water, and it will become almost transparent when it is taken out of the water.

Silverfish will flow back into freshwater to spawn in March and April, but they will also settle in freshwater lakes.

Although the whitebait at this time is not in the spawning period, each one is not small in size.

Leng Feng managed to catch a lot of small whitebait, trapped them in the puddle, and said to Er Gouzi and the others: "You continue to catch this kind of fish. I will go to Yueyang City to buy some eggs. I heard that this kind of fish is fried with eggs. It's delicious to eat."

Er Gouzi immediately agreed: "Okay, boss, come back quickly, you'd better bring some wine back."

Leng Feng kicked Er Gouzi: "You are still drinking. There are 1000 of you, and one egg per person costs one hundred catties, but would you like to give each of you an egg? I have to hire a car to pull it here! I will pull you a truckload of eggs." , Is it possible to pull a few carts of wine for you?"

Er Gouzi also remembered the terrible number of 200, and said with emotion: "[-] people are really edible!"

Leng Feng was already on his horse, but he almost fell off when he heard what Er Gouzi said, wait... wait... 1200? 119 fire alarm has become 120 emergency call, did I lift a rock and hit my foot again? ?

Although there are few people in Yueyang City, Yueyang City is still very lively. Yueyang City does not have the street drums like Chang'an City, and it is quite lively when it is approaching evening.

Feng Yanxiao met Leng Feng when he was delivering supplies to the Dragon Tooth Army, and was entrusted by Leng Feng to issue a fishing ban.In fact, this fishing ban is a bit redundant. Dongting Lake is full of crocodiles, and people only dare to fish on the shore occasionally.

Feng Yanxiao met Leng Feng on the street, he was very surprised, he cupped his hands and asked, "Duke Xi is not 'playing' by Dongting Lake, how come he has time to go to the city?"

Didn't Duke Xing train troops by the lake?Why did you come to the city?

Leng Feng didn't get off his horse, and said, "I'm going to get a cart full of eggs and bring them back to the lake to feed the fish."

Yue Yang Biejia Zhou Quan frowned and said: "Duke Yan, eggs are rare and valuable. You want eggs to feed fish? Such a waste is against the way of sages!"

Leng Feng laughed and said: "I just like fish, and I also like to feed fish. Don't make me laugh, but... I want to buy eggs. I spend my own money to buy them. It's none of your business!"

Zhou Quan wanted to say something else, but Feng Yanxiao stopped him, a cart full of eggs, feed the fish?How can it be!Most likely it was Duke Xun who planned to improve the food for the soldiers.

"Since that's the case, Xiaguan will arrange for people to buy eggs."

Leng Feng took out a piece of gold from his pocket and threw it to Feng Yanxiao.

This is a piece he took casually from Yuanzong when he left Luoyang, just for emergency use.
