Chapter 80 Soaking in the hot spring, Commander Qin's mind wandered (1/2)



"There really are fish!"

The two looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

The sense of crisis of being trapped in a snow cave was greatly diminished at this moment by the idyllic scenery.

Su Tang clapped her hands and said enthusiastically:

"Since we're here, we might as well make the best of it. There's always a way out. Finding a way out... can wait."

She doesn't have many other hobbies, but she has a special obsession with fishing.

Seeing that there might be a lot of good stuff in this crystal-clear lake, her feet seemed to be rooted to the spot, and she couldn't move.

"Let me show you what it's like to cook fish in a hot spring!"

As Qin Ye watched her excited expression, the shock in his heart gradually subsided, replaced by a sense of peace and warmth.

With this girl around, it seems like even the most dangerous and desperate situations can be turned into a paradise.

With a wave of her hand, Su Tang arranged a set of exquisite folding tables and chairs, a small titanium alloy pot, and a carbon fiber fishing rod that looked quite extraordinary on the flat ground by the lake.

Qin Ye was no longer surprised by this; he simply walked over and picked up the light fishing rod.

"This is it?"

"certainly."

Su Tang then magically produced a small box containing a paste-like substance that emitted a strange fragrance.

"Here, my grandma's secret fish bait recipe, it's all-purpose."

Qin Ye couldn't help but laugh as he watched her talking nonsense with such a straight face.

He imitated Su Tang, baited his hook, and cast it into the steaming lake.

"I want to see if this fish is really that stupid."

As soon as he finished speaking, the fishing rod in his hand suddenly sank, and a tremendous force came through.

Qin Ye instinctively reeled in the line, and a strange fish, its body crystal clear and its internal organs vaguely visible, was thrown up and thrashed about on the ground.

"..."

Qin Ye was dumbfounded.

He looked at the fish on the ground, then at the fishing rod in his hand, and remained silent for a long time.

"...Is this fish starving or just plain stupid?"

Su Tang proudly raised her chin.

"So, your wife was right, wasn't she?"

Next, Qin Ye truly experienced what it meant to get a winning hand with every swing.

In less than half an hour, the bucket at their feet was filled with seven or eight lively, transparent fish.

Several hours had passed since the two had eaten hot pot, and their exhaustion from working had left them both starving.

Qin Ye quickly prepared the two largest fish and put them directly into the pot using the hot spring water from the lake.

Su Tang then took out ginger slices, scallion segments, and some of her specially made seasoning powder from her spatial storage.

Before long, an indescribable, incredibly delicious aroma wafted from the pot, making one's mouth water.

Outside, it was a world of ice and snow, but the two of them sat around in a warm, spring-like underground cave, enjoying a steaming hot spring fish hot pot.

The fish melted in his mouth, so delicious that he hardly needed to chew, and the broth was rich and sweet. Qin Ye ate until he was sweating.

"This...this is so delicious!"

He was a tough soldier who had traveled all over the country and endured all kinds of hardships, but at this moment he was completely conquered by a pot of fish soup.

Su Tang smiled and served him another bowl.

After eating and drinking her fill, Su Tang strolled around the hot spring to digest her food and spotted a few small grasses clinging to the rock wall, emitting a faint blue light.

She walked over and began to observe carefully.

"It really is good stuff."

"What is this?" Qin Ye also came closer.

“A type of geothermal plant called Phoenix Grass was the main material used in our time to make highly effective hemostatic agents and cell repair fluids, but it has disappeared from the outside world.”

Su Tang carefully dug up the few Phoenix Singing Grasses along with the soil around their roots and stored them in her spatial storage.

She was thinking about planting them properly in the black soil so she could make some medicines in the lab for emergencies.
