Mountain and Sea Treasures

Chapter 444 Crab Soup

The anchor was taken back by experienced sailors, and everyone stayed on the deck nervously. Once we failed to turn the corner, we had to jump into the sea to escape.

The sky is clear and the sea is clear, but the hidden reefs cannot be seen from the surface.I was sweating for Old Uncle Zheng, not knowing how he would lead us through the corner under such circumstances.

The hull was slowly tilting, and I had to hold on to the side of the boat to stabilize my body.

Suddenly, the boat straightened up again, almost throwing me out.

I don't know how long it took, but I just felt like I was climbing a hill. I kept going up and then rushed down with full throttle.

"Ow!"

Suddenly, one of the sailors shouted excitedly, and the other two sailors also shouted. After asking, they found out that the legendary Hades Bend had passed.Looking at the three of them covered in cold sweat and the madness of the rest of their lives, I can only sigh --- we are really ignorant and fearless. Although we are also afraid, we still cannot understand the feeling of dying.

After the carnival, the three sailors saw that we were so calm, and asked a little puzzled if you weren't afraid?

I smiled a little embarrassedly.In fact, we are not afraid, it's just that we don't have their understanding of the Eighteen Bends of Hades.

But fortunately, Hades Bend has passed. According to Uncle Zheng, the waterway ahead is easier.

It can be described as thrilling these few days, each of us was exhausted, and the sailors caught several fresh and fat fish after leaving Hades Bend and made soup for us, saying that it shocked us!

But rather than being frightened, we were more sad. After making sure that the next waterway was safer, we went back to our rooms.

The fourth girl was still sitting there, as if nothing had affected her, including the departure of the white team.

Seeing her like this, I felt a little chilled, and tentatively asked her what she thought of the death of the white team?
She didn't speak, just looked at me quietly, there was no emotion in her eyes.

I froze, and asked her almost uncontrollably what she meant?Are our lives worthless in her eyes?

The fourth girl looked at me and suddenly smiled with a cold smile: "Chang'an, I am not the same kind of person as you. Although I work with you, to be honest, I have seen too many life and death. So for Team Bai If you leave, I can only laugh."

I don't know what to say, maybe I have too many demands on the fourth girl, or maybe I think she is impersonal.

But so what?When I first met her, I knew she was not a human being.

"Yeah, I offended." I chuckled.

The fourth girl turned her head and continued to stare out the window, and asked me again not to reveal her whereabouts in front of others.

She has told me this sentence no less than five times, which immediately made me suspicious.

You know, with the fourth girl's ability, it is really easy to avoid our sight and not let her whereabouts be leaked.

Why did she let me find out?

Of course, this idea was just a thought in my mind and then I threw it away. Naturally, she has her reasons for doing things, and I can't guess it.

The next two days were uneventful, and the sailors fished some seafood from the sea from time to time for our tooth festival. In just a few days, my belly grew out, and my baby’s face even turned round.

In fact, we are not only for eating, but for bragging with the sailors while eating, so that we can get out of our sad emotions.

But Lao Yan has been shutting himself in the room. I sent the food, but it was only placed at the door. It has been two days since he came out of Hades, and I haven't even seen his figure.

In this regard, Professor Xu meant to let him go, saying that Lao Yan was measured, and he would naturally know what to do when the time came.

Of course we don't have any objections. Anyway, there is nothing wrong with the boat, which is just suitable for him to calm down.

But in the past two days, I have discovered the interesting things about these sailors. They have been in the sea all year round, and they have seen and heard things that we have never heard of. Therefore, we drink fish soup together every day and listen to them talk about those strange things at sea. Still quite interesting.

At noon that day, the sailors caught a few big crabs from the sea, cooked them casually in a crude pot on board, and the aroma immediately overflowed.

Yazai was holding the bowl, squatting there and waiting when the crabs just came out of the pot, looking like that, it almost made a fuss.

Fortunately, it only takes more than ten minutes to cook the crabs, and the boy chatted with the sailor for a few days, and the time passed.

"Chang'an, hurry up, these crabs are so fat and tender!" The boy shouted at the top of his voice as the crabs were about to be cooked, and his voice was heard throughout the boat.

A group of people gathered around the pot on the deck, and even Old Zheng Shu temporarily stopped the boat, holding a bowl and happily waiting for the lid to be lifted.

"At this time, the crabs are not as fat and tender as they were in September and October, but the crabs can be delicious without adding anything. The fragrance makes the saliva drip." Lao Xia laughed.

What he said was indeed true. We swallowed saliva when we were greedy for the aroma, and the sailor who cooked the crab smiled happily and said that there was 1 minute left.

We were surrounded by a group, and the seconds passed. We ate the most fish in the past few days on the boat. Although it was delicious, we would get tired of eating too much. Now we have crabs for a change, so naturally we can't miss it.

Gumbling.

The sound of boiling water mixed with the sound of swallowing saliva makes us more and more greedy. One minute seems like a century.

"It's here!" Yazi shouted excitedly, and the sailor counted the time, and immediately lifted the lid of the pot, the scent that was suppressed just now was released instantly, and the irritating saliva flowed down.

Although steamed crabs are better, but the conditions on board are limited, we had to switch to boiled crabs.But the sailors brush the crabs very clean one by one, so even this soup is drinkable.

The boy handed over the bowl and asked the sailor to serve him a crab, but the sailor waved his hand and said with a smile: "You don't understand this, do you? This crab is cold, so it's best to eat it before eating it." Something hot, so let’s have a bowl of soup first.”

As he said that, he served a bowl for Yazai first.

The crabs that reached their mouths were stopped like this, and the boy was choked, but the sailor insisted on serving a bowl of soup for each of them, so we had to listen to him.After all, crabs are caught by others, and they are washed and boiled by others. It is no problem to listen to these words.

It's just that the soup is very hot, one or two are eager to eat crabs but want to drink such hot soup, the scene is a little bit good for a while.

Especially Yazai, he is a foodie. When he was in Yanjing, he had to go out to fight teeth from time to time, so he couldn't wait at all. He took a big sip while holding the bowl, and he screamed when it was so hot.

"It's hot, it's hot!" He stuck out his tongue.

Professor Xu shook his head amusedly: "You, you can't eat hot crabs in a hurry!"
