Qin Hu

Chapter 138 Don't take a breath to relieve your anger!
Zhao Zihu really slept on the back of the whale all night.

In the twilight of the day, he realized that the big fish was no longer able to touch the reef, so he sat up abruptly and shouted that the thick rope should be thrown from the boat.

At this time, the many barbed spears still trapped in the flesh of the whale came in handy again.

You only need to dive into the sea with a person, connect the thick rope with the long line at the end of the spear, and the big fish can be dragged by the boat.

A whale that is like a small boat can be dragged ashore with a little effort with only one person, one spear and one boat...

The big fish on this hill cannot be pulled away by a clipper boat, the main reason is that they are afraid of being taken into the sea by whale falls.

Therefore, two boats can only be used to drag the big fish in the direction of Zhifu Island.

When the fleet came, it was as fast as thunder because of chasing whales, and when it returned, it was also slow like a turtle crawling because of it.

When the fleet berthed at Zhifu Island, it was already a scene of sunset.

In fact, when they saw the Daqin Fleet appearing on the horizon, the troops stationed there raised their black flags and beat gongs and drums.

The common people also came after hearing the news, raising their arms and shouting in unison: "The Great Qin Wannian, the First Emperor Wannian..."

"Great Qin Wannian! First Emperor Wannian!"

But the sound like a tsunami stopped abruptly when he saw the big fish in the fleet.

Xuan Qi also stopped, and the gongs and drums paused temporarily. Everyone on the island couldn't believe what they saw.

After a long time, people started talking again.

"Then, what is that? It looks like 'Jing'."

"How could there be such a big 'Jing'! Even if it is, it must be Long Jing!"

"That's right! The 'Jing' that His Majesty hit is naturally Longjing..."

In the crowd, I don't know if it was the hidden Taoist or the human being who heard a few words, but they started to chant slowly.

"There is a fish in the Northern Darkness, and its name is Kun. The size of the Kun, I don't know how many thousands of miles it is! Hiss? Could this be the legendary Kun..."

In any case, the mysterious flag was waved more violently, and even more intense cheers resounded on the island, and even the boat echoed from a distance.

Yingzheng and Zhao Zihu led the nobles and ministers to get off the boat. They were welcomed by the soldiers and the people, but they didn't stay, and soon returned to the boat.

One is that it is almost night, and the other is that during the nearly two-day voyage, it is not comfortable to sleep on the clipper ship. Ying Zheng feels physically and mentally exhausted and needs to lie down.

But for the sake of the big fish, he didn't choose to return to the camp immediately. The living facilities on the upstairs boat are complete, and it is also suitable for a short stay.

After resting on the boat for two hours, Yingzheng woke up and had some food, and summoned Zhao Zihu and Gan Luo overnight.

"I don't see you in two days, it's like six autumns! Prime Minister Gan, are you all right?"

When they met in front of the gate of the palace on the upstairs boat, Zhao Zihu made a joke with Gan Luo.

This is the third time Gan Luo has been woken up in the middle of the night because of his son Zihu.

He felt that his head was going to be bald, and when he heard Zhao Zihu's greeting, he wandered around twice, and suddenly raised his hand to the right.

"All right! All right! Congratulations, I wish you a victory and a dragon whale..."

Zhao Zihu smiled, and hurriedly supported Gan Luo's back: "The forehead is on this side. It seems that I have to get you something to mend tomorrow!"

"I, my lord, thank you for your kindness! I am grateful, I am grateful!" Confused, Gan Luo bowed his hands again.

He is obviously a handsome man in his early thirties, but his waist is bent like a little old man at this moment.

Zhao Zihu shook his head and smiled bitterly, and entered the palace room with Gan Luo.

"I have seen Your Majesty!"

The two of them saw that the driver tonight was Lang Zhongling Meng Yi.

Ying Zheng didn't talk nonsense, laughed, and went straight to the point: "My son! Come on. Tell me, this big fish has been brought back, what are you going to do with it?"

"Naturally send two teams who are familiar with this big fish to scrape its sebum at the seaside, take its flesh and blood, and try to further process it!"

He thought to himself again, my old man is really impatient, he can't even wait for one night, Zhao Zihu replied indifferently.

"Deep processing?!" The word sounded fresh, Ying Zheng smiled blankly, and asked Zhao Zihu to explain it in detail.

Zhao Zihu yawned, and asked amusedly: "Could it be that the chicken oil that the emperor eats is used directly after slaughtering a raw chicken?"

With a glare, Ying Zheng warned the coward to stop playing tricks.

"That's right! This deep processing means that the black skin on the back and the white skin under the belly of this big fish should be scraped off as a whole..."

"The oil also needs to be wrapped in gauze, exposed to the sun, filtered to extract the essence, and then some herbs can be added to make the cream that the emperor wanted."

"Hmm...cough cough?"

Unexpectedly, Couna revealed his thoughts while talking. Ying Zheng's face darkened, and he thought of something, and then looked at Zhao Zihu playfully.

He asked: "If this cream is made out, it will have a miraculous effect. How about you?"

"Hey! Father, if all this fish fat is made into face cream, as long as it is properly stored, it will be enough for you to use for more than ten years!"

"Is it really just face cream?"

Seeing that Zhao Zihu was still so dishonest, Ying Zheng raised his hand and signaled to Meng Yi.When the fleet was galloping on the sea, he had long wanted to fuck his baby.

One set of dangerous tricks after another, made me feel very nervous...

If you don't take a breath, you won't be relieved!
Meng Yi was not Zhao Gao, this time he was very cooperative and quickly handed over the whip.

His brows raised involuntarily, but he was really looking forward to what this clan tyrant could do with this big fish.

Zhao Zihu was so angry, he gave Meng Yi a bitter look, and he continued to slap his eyes and said: "Don't! Father, don't worry..."

"Ah, I really don't understand what you mean. Do you want to use half of this fish oil for face cream and half for candles?"

Ying Zheng took the whip and shook it: "Counsel! You have more than just this fish!"

Seeing that my old man wanted to be serious, Zhao Zihu smiled, stopped answering, and ran away.

Sleeping on the back of a whale overnight, he did consider whether to develop the whaling industry, but he didn't have the urge to implement it immediately like other things.

What he thinks more about is how to add a "fishing restriction order" to the Qin Law...

Whales can be caught, but not overfished!
Zhao Zihu didn't want to see that the Great Qin transformed by him became a "tyrannical Qin that tortured and killed whales" when mentioned by later generations.

Even, let Xiaotian use himself as an example...

How disgusting is that? !
Therefore, he was once again reluctant to reveal his heart to Ying Zheng.

After escaping from the palace and getting off the boat, Zhao Zihu went to Li You's place to find a place to sleep, and Li Si and Leng-Blooded Thirteen Eagles had already arranged a temporary residence.

He didn't care how much Ying Zheng would think, let alone what the emperor Lao Tzu would do when he was in the palace at this time.

Ying Zheng heard that the baby seemed to have run away, threw away the whip casually, and asked angrily, "Gan Luo! Do you understand?"

Gan Luo shook his hands, and repeated the details of how to decompose the fish skin and how to filter the oil that the young master Zihu said.

"Well! Let's do it like this. As for the manpower, let's recruit the people here! I heard their discussion in the morning, and I seem to be quite familiar with this big fish."

"Only~"

Gan Luo didn't say much, simply accepted the order, and quickly left the palace.

Before Gan Luo left, Ying Zheng looked at Meng Yi who had picked up the whip, and muttered amusedly again.

"The boy is really thoughtful! He has to turn the corner and ask me to wipe his ass.

Meng Yi pondered for a while, and said doubtfully: "Your Majesty! All the young master's actions this time are quite confusing..."

"Played with the big fish for a day, and even slept on the back of the big fish all night, that's all. I actually feel that the young master still sympathizes with the big fish!"

"Hey! Who's to say it's not the case. The expression on the boy's face just now, almost wrote the words 'It's a pity whether this big fish is killed or not' written on his face..."

Ying Zheng shook his sleeves helplessly: "I thought no one would see it! I don't know what kind of thoughts I'm holding back? That's all, let him go."

Having said this, he unfolded the bamboo slips before the case, and then began to approve the official documents.

The next day, Zhao Zihu and others who were temporarily staying by the Dongshantou dock were woken up by a series of loud shouts.

They opened the curtain and followed the sound, and saw [-] people standing in two rows in front of a shoal on Zhifu Island at the bottom of the mountain, holding long-handled sickles like mowing grass, and accepting Gan Luo's dispatch.

"Wow! Is it time to start decomposing the carcass of the big fish?" Diao Chan exclaimed, her eyes full of stars.

Hu Hai's stinky brothers didn't dare to breathe too loudly, for fear of missing any exciting link.

On the other side, the Ruishi pushed two large winches, and through several bundles of thick ropes, they fixed the whale carcass stranded on the beach in a side-lying posture with a "creaking" sound.

With a wave of Gan Luo's big hand, twenty people climbed the cloud-climbing cart, and squatted in the squatting spot under the belly of the big fish...

The next step is to work together to cut off the sebum on the surface of the big fish with a long-handled sickle.

Their movements are so light and skillful, little by little, without the feeling of scratching the bones at all...

Apparently, the people here have done a lot of things like skinning and fleshing out small whales.

Then, under the action of the winch, the sebum is easily peeled off and dragged away...

The stripped black and white skins were hoisted by the crane again, and several clues were pulled into a big tent, with the fat on top and the skin on the bottom to be exposed to the sun.

Next, these people started to work on the head area of ​​the big fish. They fastened the jawbone with a long rope...

Then he signaled Ruishi to turn the winch again. Under the huge pulling force, there was a crisp "click", and the mandible was broken on the spot.

Two of them used sickles to cut open the muscles connected to the jawbone, and the upper jawbone did the same.

After that, it is the link to separate the viscera and flesh of the big fish.

Although it is said on the surface that the big fish was dragged back by the Daqin fleet because it was bleeding dry and unable to resist...

But when it starts to decompose, the flesh and internal organs will still "squeak", and a lot of dark red blood will ooze out.

Not to mention how shocking it was, not long after, Diao Chan covered her eyes, turned her face away and shouted repeatedly: "No, no, no! It's too cruel..."

"The oil obtained in this way is made into a face cream. Even if it can make my face smooth and beautiful, I won't use it!"

Hearing what the girl said so resolutely, Zhao Zihu smiled, turned around and asked incredulously, "Are you serious?"

"Of course!" Diao Chan patted her small chest and expressed her affirmation again.

"Then what if you are injured. The oil of this big fish, together with some herbs, can make your injury heal quickly?"

"Then I won't use it. Even if I'm missing an arm and a leg, I won't use something made by such cruel means."

Hu Hai was not happy after hearing this: "Sister Diaochan, you can't be lame! If you are lame? If you kill me, I will think of a way to trick you into using this kind of fish oil."

However, his statement didn't win Diaochan's favor, and the girl was even more frightened and shuddered, and snorted at him in boredom.

Zhao Zihu didn't need to make any statement, he just shattered Diao Chan's previous insistence with one sentence: "I'm talking about your face..."

"Ah?" Diao Chan blinked in confusion.

"What will happen to your face?"

"Gah? That, that, then..."

The girl was finally at a loss.

Zhao Zihu simply answered for her.

"Then refrain from using this oil. It doesn't matter if your face is pretty or not, you can't be ugly after all!"

He tilted his mouth and asked again: "Is that what you mean? Sister Diaochan."

"Who, who said that?" Diao Chan felt guilty and stubborn, not daring to meet Zhao Zihu's eyes.

Zhao Zihu immediately pretended to be surprised: "Oh! This is surprising. I didn't expect our sister Diaochan to have such a sense of self-sacrifice!"

Diao Chan is so angry!Grind your teeth straight.

Seeing other companions also looking at her with a smile, she stomped her feet, turned around and fled: "Hmph! I'll ignore you. Brother Zihu will bully others..."

Then the cold-blooded thirteen eagles roared with laughter in the tent.

Amidst the laughter, the curtain was raised again, and a cold yet charming voice came to Zhao Zihu's ears: "What's so funny? What's wrong with Sister Diaochan?"

"Yue'er?" Zhao Zihu was stunned for a moment, and looked towards the door with both surprise and joy. It was Xiang Liyue and Fat Qing'er who appeared there.

"I've seen my sister-in-law!" The cold-blooded thirteen eagles hurriedly bowed their hands in unison, and at the same time, they were surprised that Xiangliyue was really annoying, so they couldn't wait to take the initiative to find them.

Xiang Liyue once again looked at Zhao Zihu with a questioning look, with a trace of resentment mixed in, she blamed the coward for not looking for her when she came back.

"Oh! Nothing... We're just talking about a soap that makes the body smell good after a bath. And a face cream..."

Zhao Zihu replied with a chuckle: "Using it often can keep your face supple and smooth. They are all made of fish oil from that big fish. Ask Diao Chan if she dares to use it?"

Hearing this, Xiangliyue bit her lips in discomfort and said, "Yeah! I think so too. This kind of fish grows so huge, it must have lived for a long time..."

"Look at the many spears stuck in its back. You killed it in such a cruel way, dragged it ashore, skinned it and cramped it just to get some oil from it..."

"It's really hurtful to smear your body and take a bath!" She said, shaking her head and sighing, obviously sympathizing with the whale.

Zhao Zihu also didn't waste his time talking, and with just one sentence, Xiang Liyue was deeply shocked.

"Yue'er! If I say that the fish oil of this kind of fish is made into a lamp, it will be very bright, and if it is as big as a fist, it can be lit for at least hundreds of days. How about you?"
