Chapter 146 Flavored Seafood
146
The four continued to look at a column of incense for about an hour. The nine-foot man looked up at the dark clouds above his head and shook his head and said, "Let's go down for a meal while it rains in the future. Let's go to the coastal pier later. Although the landscape we saw there is wider and spectacular, it is clearer, and the sound of angry waves beating on the shore is much louder, which can make you feel a kind of blood boiling.
Mr. Lu waited hard for this sentence. His pale face suddenly glowed with a trace of excitement. In this raging wind, he hugged a person with one hand and carefully walked down the mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, the man of the bucket hat he had met before was also dressed in a ruff. Looking at them down, his dark face showed a happy smile, squeezing his white teeth, and walked towards them and taking them back to his house.
Entering the village on the island, only a dozen houses in front of them are sparsely scattered there. They are all made of some large stones. Even the roof is different from other places. They are directly built into spires with the sound of the stone, or nailed with some thick wooden boards.
Before entering the house, a sudden rain fell again, which was a little chaotic and smashed by the wind. The man went to a short stone house and patted the closed wooden door.
"Squeak! Bum!"
Only a door crack was opened inside, and the strong wind directly squeezed the door and hit it on the stone wall, knocking the door panel. By the time the four of Mr. Gu went in, the slanting rainstorm had wet most of the house. The man desperately pushed the door back and tied it with a wooden stick.
The door closed, the wind stopped, there were many small people in the room, and the dark room suddenly looked hot and stuffy.
With all that much care, Mr. Gu took a long breath and took off the strange clothes and hats, and it was inevitable that some clothes were soaked in the rain.
The aunt in colorful strange clothes and braided hair ran to the backyard to get a few clean facial towels, handed them over, grinned at the white-skinned little men, and said a chatter.
Several princes were confused, but Mr. Gu still smiled kindly and said, "Thank you!"
The bamboo hat man smiled and translated for them, "My wife said that some of the princes' skin is so white! If your clothes are wet, you should dry them quickly to avoid catching a cold. She will boil a few bowls of ginger tea for several princes to dispel the cold.
The three of Mr. Gu thanked the aunt again, which made the aunt hurriedly return the gift, greeted them to eat, and ran back to the backyard by herself.
Gu Gongzi looked at the big table, densely folded basins and plates, many dishes, and there was no place to put bowls. The main food in the dish is seafood. Except for a few bowls such as eggs and chicken, the rest are crayfish, fish and shrimp, kelp and other seafood, as well as the five-color glutinous rice with the peel.
The owner invited him to eat. The ancient prince and the mountain prince who wiped the water beads grabbed the chopsticks and specially looked for food that were not fish to eat. Only the nine-foot man and the road prince clamped the fish and shrimp from time to time.
Mr. Gu nodded and praised, "This rice is delicious, refreshing and sticky, and has a fruity fragrance!"
The man stood aside and didn't eat. He looked at it for a while and asked strangely, "Why don't these two men eat these seafood?" This is what I called for you. It tastes so delicious that you can try it.
Mr. Gu said awkwardly, "Thank you for your kindness. We are a little uncomfortable."
The man patted his forehead and laughed, "These two princes must be from the inner city and can't get used to these slightly fishy seafood. To tell you, I used to be from the mainland, and I was also not used to these seafood at first. In this way, I will mix some sauce for you to reduce some salty smell, and then you can rest assured to try it again.
After a while, he came over with a small plate of dark sticky matter, put it in front of Mr. Gu and Mr. Shan, and stained it with a snow-white fish fillet and handed it to Mr. Gu.
"Son, you can try it now to ensure that there will be no more fishy smell that you can't get used to!"
The silver was given by Mr. Gu, and the man in the bamboo hat believed that Mr. Gu was the main figure among the three, which was a little bit of abusy.
Mr. Gu looked at the sauce purple fish on the pulp and frowned. He still picked it up and put it in his mouth to try. After learning the last lesson, he only gently licked it with his tongue this time.
Fresh and refreshing, the taste is just right. Sure enough, there is no disgusting strong fishy smell, only a faint taste. Mr. Gu's compact eyebrows suddenly opened Shu Xuan, swallowed the fish and slowly chewed it.
Mr. Shan looked at it for a long time before he picked up a piece of fish. He learned from the man who had just tasted the bamboo hat and ate it with sauce. He took a bite gently. It was really delicious. He immediately became frowned. He picked up several kinds of seafood dipped in sauce and tried the taste one by one.
At this time, the aunt with many small braids in the backyard brought a wooden basin with four bowls of mud juice on it. He chattered and said again. The man smiled and said, "Several princes, this ginger soup has been cooked, and you won't catch a cold after drinking it."
Mr. Gu shook his head and didn't drink those spicy things. He smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness. I still don't need it!" We are stronger and less susceptible to these colds.
The aunt returned to the backyard with hot soup with some disappointment.
After trying several dishes, Mr. Gu was very interested in the dark sauce and asked the owner to teach him how to make it. The man of the bamboo hat did not refuse at all. He led Mr. Gu to the kitchen and put the seasonings into the dishes according to the quantity. There was nothing special, except that it was mixed with some sauce and vinegar seasonings.
When the food was full, Mr. Gu took out another ingot of silver and put it on the table with satisfaction.
The dark-skinned bamboo hat man's eyes shone as soon as he looked at the silver-white thing, but he still reluctantly handed the silver back to Mr. Gu and said, "You're welcome. This gentleman has just bought so many coconuts from me. This meal is my treat for you."
Mr. Gu pushed the silver back and shook his head, "How can that be done! We have to pay for everything we eat in the restaurant.
The man looked excitedly at the silver in his hand and grabbed his scalp awkwardly and said, "It's just that even if you pay, it's not worth so much money. How about the princes eat a few more meals here? Bring some more to the ship and keep them."
Mr. Gu nodded and said, "It's so good. Let's go and see the huge waves."
Mr. Lu grabbed him and prayed, "It's raining heavily outside. I feel a little sleepy. Let's take a break and have a look."
The man said, "There are only two narrow beds in my room. If you don't mind the roughness, you can go and have a rest."
Mr. Gu said, "It's so good. Brother Lu, you can rest here for a while, and let's take a look at this rare tide."
Mr. Lu hurriedly grabbed Mr. Shan and said, "Brother Shan is with me. I'm a little scared!"
Mr. Shan looked at Mr. Gu, looked at Mr. Lu, and nodded helplessly, "Okay, then I'll take you to rest for a while."
The ancient prince and the well-dressed nine-foot man opened the door, and the wind blew wildly, making the ancient prince stand unsteadily, but the nine-foot man stood like a rock, motionless.
The nine-foot man looked impatiently and pulled Mr. Gu away in the rainstorm.
The man held the stone wall and saw them running at the speed of a horse in the rainstorm. They disappeared in an instant. They nodded and praised, "Sure enough, they are the first-class masters in the world! You can run so fast in this strong wind.
I couldn't see them, so I quickly tied up the door. Mr. Lu and his wife had already brought him into the bedroom to rest.
"Boom, boom..."
Only halfway, the two of Mr. Gu heard the loud sound of angry waves patting the shore. The figure swept away, and the nine-foot man directly grabbed Mr. Gu and stood on the stone bank a few feet before the coast. The wind made them shake their clothes.
Standing at such a close distance and listening to the endless roar of the huge waves, Mr. Gu felt that his ears were deaf.
What's more exciting is that the huge waves several feet high came, as if they were going to swallow them together, but they hit the reef of the dock fiercely first, broke into a water mist all over the sky, and slowly fell down. Before they completely fell, a wave behind them hit them fiercely. It's been going on and on for a long time.
Mr. Gu was a little distracted when he looked at the waves several feet high. At the beginning, he couldn't even lift a small bucket of water. How many thousands of pounds did the huge waves in front of him have to weigh? This smash falls, and you have to smash people into meat mud!
This storm is really fierce enough! Even if there are thousands of troops, I'm afraid it's not as powerful as that.
