Chapter 44 Fishing
Su Yun was a little curious about how they fished, so he thought about it and walked towards the river. When
they arrived at the river, a large group of believers stood in the shallow water, holding stone spears in their hands, staring at the river closely, and from time to time someone stabbed it hard.
But unfortunately, although the fish here are very low in vigilance, it is not so easy to stab them. It still requires skilled techniques. Only occasionally a few people are lucky enough to catch fish.
Su Yun shook his head. With their fishing method, how long will it take to catch fish?
"Speaking of which, the fastest way to catch fish is still with fishing nets."
Su Yun said regretfully, "But there is not even hemp here, so it is difficult to make fishing nets."
Limited by the material problem, he can only wait until he has time to go to the modern world to buy a few fishing nets to use.
Thinking of this, Su Yun thought thoughtfully, "In addition to fish, shrimps, crabs, river clams, etc. in the river are also edible, but they are not suitable for roasting. It is best to boil them in water."
Thinking of boiling in water, he remembered that the tribe is still using small stone bowls, and there is no way to boil them in water.
"We have to find a way to make pottery."
Su Yun muttered to himself.
While he was thinking, several believers had successfully caught fish and were cleaning them.
Speaking of which, it was thanks to the large number of fish here, the tendency of species proliferation, and the few natural enemies, which led to a large number of fish in the river!
So in this short time, someone had a harvest.
They shouted and clumsily began to handle the fish under the guidance of those who knew how to handle the fish.
Su Yun couldn't help but walk over and take a look.
"Priest!" They shouted respectfully.
Su Yun nodded and motioned them to continue handling the fish.
Under his observation, although they were a little slow, there was no mistake in the steps. They were also very careful and respectful in handling the fish gall, obviously afraid of this poisonous thing.
Suddenly, Su Yun frowned. He found that a middle-aged female tribesman with a weathered face and sunken cheeks accidentally broke the fish gall, and the fish bile splashed on the fish.
However, the other party just threw away the fish gallbladder, and washed the fish body carefully by the way, but did not throw away the fish, obviously preparing to continue eating!
This scene made him frown deeply.
Su Yun walked over and asked seriously, "Didn't I tell you that fish gallbladders can't be eaten if they are broken?"
The female tribesman who was washing the fish was stunned, and her face turned pale instantly, but she still gritted her teeth and said, "Priest, this fish has so much meat and is so big, it's a pity to throw it away!"
"It's already very clean, look."
The thin female tribesman looked hopeful, and quickly picked up the fish, revealing the cleaned fish body, but the abdomen part stained by the broken fish gallbladder was yellow and black!
She also knew that the priest said that fish gallbladders can't be eaten, but it was really painful for her to throw away such a large piece of fish meat. She hadn't eaten for a long time, and she really didn't want to give up this fish. She thought that
it was just a little bit, and she had been washing it for a long time, so it should be fine. The priest was making a fuss. Isn't this a waste?
Su Yun only needed to take a look to know that the fish bile had already seeped into the fish meat, and fish bile is difficult to dissolve in water, which means it is difficult to wash it clean!
It's just that, but looking at the look of this female tribesman, it's obvious that she doesn't want to give up the fish meat, and this matter is definitely not just this one, it will definitely come out in the future.
"Really, then okay." Su Yun sighed lightly, and said before turning around and leaving, "I hope you won't regret it."
Out of consideration, he thought about it and didn't continue to stop them. Only by giving them a lesson, they will remember it in the future.
After all, this kind of thing is small and big. If this kind of fish is eaten by pregnant women or injured people, there will definitely be no good results.
And this kind of thing being refuted is also an offense to his authority, which is not a good thing.
"Priest..."
The female tribesman grabbed the fish and looked at the priest's back. For some reason, she suddenly felt a little regretful.
But when she saw the fish meat in her hand, she still gritted her teeth and was not ready to give up the meat.
This scene was also seen by other people. In the case of food, some people also unconsciously developed a fluke mentality in their hearts.
The leader was a little confused, not knowing why the priest did not continue to stop it.
Su Yun stood quietly aside, observing the expressions of the believers. He found that except for a small number of people, most of the others did not have a fluke mentality, which made him feel a little relieved.
Soon, as more and more fish were caught, more than a dozen people, including the female tribesman, all started to grill fish.
Time passed slowly, and a fragrance gradually enveloped the venue.
Smelling this smell, those who did not catch fish showed envy, and could only fantasize in their minds and swallow their saliva quietly.
Su Yun sat next to the leader, took a look at his fish, and said in a light voice, "If you don't turn the fish over, it will turn black!"
"Uh..." The leader was stunned and found that the fish was indeed about to turn black. He quickly smiled and turned the fish over, which prevented the fish from turning into charcoal.
Since it was their first time grilling fish, Su Yun had never grilled fish before, but he had seen pigs run and pork, so he was more experienced.
They were different. At a glance, most of them were burnt black.
After a while, they took the black grilled fish away from the fire.
The leader was impatient and grabbed a handful of the steaming and fragrant grilled black fish with his right hand. A large piece of fish meat was torn off.
He put it in his mouth and chewed it a few times before he exclaimed, "It tastes so good!"
"It turns out that the scales...fish can really taste so good!"
The leader muttered to himself in a trance.
He originally thought it was just like barbecue, but he didn't expect it to be much more delicious than barbecue!
In fact, he was traumatized by eating raw fish before, and he really didn't expect that it would taste so good just by grilling it!
Other tribesmen also exclaimed one after another, looking at the grilled fish with fiery eyes, obviously they all tasted the deliciousness of grilled fish.
One tribesman said gratefully while eating, "Thank God!"
"Thank you, great God!"
The tribesmen praised one after another.
If it weren't for the great God, they really couldn't eat such delicious fish!
In their impression, they only thought that fish was something poisonous and unpalatable, something they would not eat even if they were hungry.
After being prepared by God's method, it not only became delicious, but also filled their hungry stomachs. In the future, they will get one more kind of food, and they don't have to be hungry often!
