Chapter 12 Fisherman's Land
Lu Yun said with a shameless face: "Old man, it's getting late. I just want to stay at your house for one night. Don't worry, I won't live in vain, I will definitely pay!"
Hearing this, the fisherman looked up at the sky. As Lu Yun said, it would be evening soon.
The nearest town here is more than ten miles away. Since the other party wants to stay for one night, it is just a pair of chopsticks.
"Forget it, follow me!"
In this way, the two continued to move towards the village.
After a while, a village hidden at the foot of the mountain appeared in front of Lu Yun.
This village is filled with mist, and it is light and slowly surging, like a paradise.
A hundred families built houses at the foot of the mountain, and children in the countryside laughed and joking, and the village was full of ditches and waterways.
In the surrounding rice fields, you can hear chickens crowing and ducks crowing from time to time. It is not difficult to see that most of the residents here are diligent people.
Looking at the stone bridge in the distance, the shepherd boy rides a buffalo and walks by slowly, and the mist is surrounded by the scenery of the water town in his dream.
Logically speaking, such a Feng Shui treasure land should be rich.
However, Lu Yun observed that the fisherman beside him was thin, wearing a shabby dress under the straw raincoat, and the straw sandals that seemed to be dismembered on his feet.
It is not difficult to see that the villagers here are not living easily.
I think in this world, the adults who are high above the temple are not aware of the hard work of villagers working in the fields and going out to catch fish every day.
I am afraid that like all dynasties, I often follow the path of low grain and low farmers. I can only say that the people suffer and the people suffer!
Not long after, Lu Yun followed the old fisherman to his home.
When the fisherman's wife saw a scholar-like man coming, she immediately came out to greet him.
Lu Yun looked at it and saw that this was an ordinary old woman in the countryside. She wanted to work all year round, her fingers were rough, and her face was full of traces left by time.
But although this old woman is old, she smiles simple and kindly.
So when Lu Yun saw her happy appearance, he wondered if he was infected, and he also laughed.
"Come on, sir, please come in and invite me. I'll cook for you now."
After the old lady finished speaking, she turned her head and told the fisherman beside her, "Old man, go and clean the fish that you caught and kept in the tank at home."
Seeing this, Lu Yun spoke out: "Mrs. Don't be too scrupulous. I will eat whatever you eat!"
"How can that be done? The gentleman is a scholar and a noble person. How can you eat when we eat? Wait for me, I will cook for you now!"
Lu Yun waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, no, no, there is no noble person, just a lazy guy, don't be polite, I can eat simple food!"
Hearing this, the old woman refused to accept it and insisted on taking out the best ingredients in the house to entertain.
After a while, the old lady was busy cooking. Before long, the old couple prepared the unique food on the water.
I saw that there was a pottery pot on the old dining table, and the inside was full of freshly stewed silverfish.
Although it was not very beautiful in a crude pottery basin, Lu Yun sniffed it lightly and immediately liked the smell of the fish.
In addition to the deliciousness of the fish itself, the most important thing is that this taste is a rare favor in the world!
And the old couple prepared steaming rice for him.
This is obviously the highest courtesy of a farmer. Lu Yun knew at a glance that this was the so-called fisherman's dish.
When it comes to eating fish, I'm afraid the most say is the fishermen who have grown up by the river for generations.
These fishermen often use crabs, turtles, silverfish, long fish, eels and other aquatic products as the main ingredients, and use live killing, live sautéing, steaming, and boiling methods to carefully cook.
Just take the dish in front of me, soaked several silverfish in clear soup, and it tastes the original taste!
Lu Yun was not pretentious. When he started to taste it, it was not to mention his uniqueness.
Just when the old couple greeted Lu Yun...
A barefoot, naked upper body, ran over outside the house.
Seeing that this child is about six or seven years old, she is completely darkened by the sun, but she still cannot cover up the agility between her eyebrows.
The child is holding two strangely shaped stones in his hand.
When the child first entered the house and saw Lu Yun, he was obviously stunned and asked the old woman: "Big Mother, who is this person? The clothes are so beautiful!"
"Silly boy, this is a scholar, you have to call him Mr."
Hearing this, the child said to Lu Yun well, "Hello sir!"
Hearing this, Lu Yun smiled and said, "What's your name? How old is this year?"
"My name is Shuisheng, this year..."
When it comes to age, Aquarius becomes confused and hesitates and cannot explain clearly.
"Oh, I'm really the same kind as his father. I'm six years old, remember it clearly!" The old fisherman looked so angry that he was not strong enough.
Shui Sheng didn't care, so he quickly raised the two stones in his hand: "Taigong, look, I found two stone crabs, the one on the left is the male and the other is the female."
I saw the child holding two strange stones in his left and right hands. He didn't know if he didn't say it, but he really looked a little similar when he said it.
"Okay, okay, put down the stones first and eat quickly." The old woman finished speaking, then stood up and served the rice for her grandson.
Unlike the one who entertains Lu Yun, the children eat brown rice, and pickled dried fish for side dishes.
Even so, Shui Sheng was still lying on the dining table and eating happily.
Seeing this, Lu Yun felt a little unbearable. This year's child should have been growing up.
After looking at the white rice in his hand, he spoke, "Shuisheng, what do you like to eat? Tell me, I'll find it for you!"
"I like to eat crabs, but the adults don't want me to eat them. They say they want to get the city to exchange for money and food so that they can deal with the mission!"
"When the time comes, I will let you all the village have endless crabs to eat. What do you think?"
Hearing this, Shui Sheng's eyes lit up and he immediately said loudly: "Really, you can really make our village full of crabs!"
Lu Yun nodded, then looked at the two stones that Shui Sheng threw on the ground: "So you come with me!"
Immediately he picked up the strange stone and took the water out of the house.
Seeing this, the old couple just thought it was Lu Yun who was making the child happy, so they let him go.
That is, the people here are simple and simple. If Lu Yun had changed his previous life, he might have been treated like a human trafficker this time.
Not long after, one big and one small, came to the town of the fields and the two of them walked and stopped.
They saw the two picking up small red stones in their hands.
The two of them walked and picked up each other. When they arrived at a secluded place, they found large stones and smashed the stones collected along the way one by one until they were ground into powder and added with water.
Finally, Lu Yun took out the brush from his sleeve, dipped it in the paint he made, and then applied it to two strange stones under the gaze of aquatic curious eyes.
After painting the two strange stones all over the body, they took out the inkstone from their sleeves like magic, and began to outline them with thick ink.
Not long after, two lively stone crabs appeared in front of Shui Sheng!
However, Lu Yun was reluctant to take action on the crab eyes!
After a stalemate for a while, Lu Yun became cruel and took the pen to trace the eyes of Shi Cai.
As expected, I fell into a state of being unable to start again!
Immediately hesitated, gritted my teeth, and said inwardly: "Try it!"
After saying that, Lu Yun was like meditation, without thinking about it, following the meaning in his mind, he tried hard to look towards the crab's eyes.
This seemed like a moment, but in Lu Yun's spiritual sense, it seemed like a long time has passed.
Until his finishing touch...
Suddenly, the headache was split and a sensation of dizziness came!
Lu Yun endured the discomfort in his mind and tried to breathe. After a moment, the dizziness gradually disappeared.
Only then did I calm my mind and find that I had already put my eyes on these two crabs.
But at this moment, the two stone crabs in their hands were still dead!
Chapter completed!
