Chapter 299 Shark Hunting
Su hurriedly caught up and coaxed her softly, "Tiantian, be good, your parents are going to the war, not to play."
As she spoke, Su wanted to cry.
The whereabouts of the youngest son are unknown. Now the eldest son and his wife have gone out to sea together for the sake of the youngest son. If anything happens to them, how will she live?
But before the army set out, this was something that must not be said, as it was considered unlucky. Even crying was not allowed, as it seemed unlucky.
She held back her tears and didn't allow Lu Tiantian to cry.
"I'm not going there to play. I know Daddy and Mommy are going there to fight the bad guys, and I want to help."
Lu Tiantian hiccuped and said seriously, "Mom, just let me go with you. Tiantian has learned a lot of skills now and can help you and daddy."
Lu Jingyan and Lu Jingheng also looked at Jiang Tangtang with hope, hoping that she would agree.
Jiang Tangtang, who regarded this voyage as a journey, felt that there was nothing wrong with bringing him along. However, wouldn't it be a bit too frivolous in the eyes of the officers? Would it affect morale?
She pursed her lips and said nothing, looking at Lu Shiyan beside her.
Lu Shiyan looked at the children in silence for a moment and then said, "Jingyan is old enough now, it's time for him to go to the battlefield for training."
After getting his father's permission, Lu Jingyan's eyes suddenly lit up. He grabbed his small bag, short sword, bow and crossbow and got on the boat.
Lu Shiyan didn't have time to teach the children kung fu himself, and since the children lived on an island, he asked Xie Xin to teach them.
But although he is very busy, he still takes time out every once in a while to personally check the homework of several children.
This year, I found that my two sons have laid a solid foundation, so I asked the people in the weapons department to make several weapons according to their body shapes, which can be carried with them for self-defense and training.
When Lu Jingyan came here today, although he was not sure whether his parents would agree to let them board the ship, he still packed his luggage carefully.
Seeing that his elder brother could go, Lu Jingheng became very anxious, "Dad, what about me?"
"Wait until I come back next time and test your homework." Lu Shiyan said.
Lu Jingheng felt extremely aggrieved, only blaming himself for not being as hardworking as his brother, which was why his father had chosen his eldest brother this time. He clenched his fists and secretly encouraged himself to work hard.
Lu Tiantian pouted pitifully, but looking at her father's serious face, she didn't dare to ask to go out to sea together.
The big ship set sail on the sea.
After Lu Shiyan discussed the battle plan with the military advisor, he took Lu Jingcheng to the deck to test his homework.
Jiang Tangtang had nothing to do on the boat, so she started cooking.
She took out all kinds of beans and started to sprout them. She also threw out her fishing net and caught some fish.
I think animals seem to like the spiritual energy in the space and the various foods containing spiritual energy, so the fish in the sea should like them too.
So when casting the net, he secretly threw a few crucian carps raised in the rice fields into the sea.
Unexpectedly, these crucian carps attracted a big fish to her.
"What kind of fish is that? Why is it so big? Its teeth are so sharp..."
The soldiers on the boat were attracted by the unusual movement in the sea and came over to help pull the net. The soldiers on the other boats were also excited when they saw it, and they only wished they were not on the same boat with the general's wife so that they could not come and help pull the net.
The father and son who were reviewing their homework on the deck were also attracted by the noise. Lu Shiyan saw that although his son tried his best to appear calm, his lively eyes betrayed his inner thoughts.
Thinking that the child was still young, she allowed him to go and watch the fun.
"Quick, shoot arrows!" Jiang Tangtang saw that the big shark in the net would threaten the safety of their boat if it continued to struggle, so he hurriedly ordered people to shoot arrows.
Arrows rained down on the shark, only to make it even more furious.
Jiang Tangtang felt a little regretful about her sudden idea of throwing the crucian carp in the space into the sea as bait.
At the critical moment, Lu Shiyan pulled the bow and shot at the mad shark.
Lu Shiyan's arrow seemed to carry the force of thunder, directly shooting through the shark.
Blood spread out in circles on the deep blue sea, and the big guy that was running around wildly just now was completely motionless.
Jiang Tangtang let out a long sigh and ordered the soldiers to pull the shark up quickly.
However, the shark was so big that the soldiers had to work together and it took a lot of effort to pull the shark up.
Fortunately, the ship that Jiang Tangtang and Lu Shiyan were riding on was a modified large ship, otherwise such a huge shark would have crushed the ship on the spot.
Seeing the huge fish that they had never seen before, the soldiers were all ecstatic. Many people said that this was a good omen and that they would definitely win a great victory this time.
Some soldiers curiously examined the shark's large teeth, while others measured its length. Finally, they all asked, "Can this fish be eaten?"
"Why not?" a knowledgeable soldier asked, "Do you know what the bird's nest and shark's fin that the Empress eats in the palace is?"
All the soldiers shook their heads, and Jiang Tangtang couldn't help but look at the soldier again.
"I heard shark fin is made from the fins of the toothy shark," the soldier said. Seeing Jiang Tangtang looking at him, he scratched his head sheepishly and explained, "I heard that from an old fisherman in the village. I'm not sure if it's true."
Jiang Tangtang smiled at the shy little soldier and asked, "What's your name?"
The soldier became more and more embarrassed, "Madam, my name is Wu Gong,"
Jiang Tangtang said, "Wu Gong is right. These fish fins can indeed be made into shark fins. However, they require multiple processing steps before they can be made into shark fins. For the time being, I can't treat everyone to shark fins. However, although I can't treat everyone to shark fins now, I can treat everyone to fish."
There was a burst of warm cheers on the boat.
Jiang Tangtang called the soldiers to help cut the shark meat, and then he was responsible for processing the fish himself.
I heard that sharks don’t have a urinary system and rely on their skin to process urine throughout their body, so the cooked fish tastes like urine.
Jiang Tangtang didn't want to waste time and energy cooking a pot of fish that smelled of urine on the boat.
Spiritual springs, peppers, spices, these gourmet weapons must be used.
So Jiang Tangtang first put the fish pieces into a large vat full of spiritual spring water to soak, and then marinated the fish pieces with chili powder, pepper powder, and five-spice seasoning from the space.
After the fish pieces were marinated, they were put into jars and the soldiers on the ship sent some to the rest of the ships.
Although it was difficult to cook on board, the soldiers mostly relied on dry food, but just in case, they brought large iron pots, stoves, and firewood.
Jiang Tangtang asked the cook to bring out the big iron pot, put a small amount of oil in the pot, and put the marinated fish in it to fry.
Although she had made so many preparations, Jiang Tangtang was still a little worried, fearing that the shark meat would emit a strong urine smell once heated.
Fortunately, that was not the case. The marinated shark meat soon emitted a mouth-watering aroma after coming into contact with the boiling oil.
