God of Cooking, grilling skewers attracted the fairy beasts

"what!!"

"You cunning thing, I must catch you today!"

Li Heng was squatting on the sand digging for sand crabs when he suddenly heard a roar behind him. It sounded like Lu Xiaoxiao.

Before he could look back to see what was happening, the sand under his feet collapsed.

Li Heng was caught off guard and fell backwards because of his unstable balance. Then Lu Xiaoxiao behind him fell silent.

"What's going on? Why is there a big hole under my feet?"

Li Heng supported himself with his hands and sat up. He looked at the place where he had been squatting before. It seemed like a landslide.

"Ouch~ Brother Li Heng, you are pressing on me, get off me quickly."

Before he could figure out the cause of the collapse, the sand under his butt suddenly moved.

It turned out that it was this guy Lu Xiaoxiao who was pushed into the sand by Li Heng.

"I asked you to go fishing, why did you crawl into the sand?"

Li Heng quickly moved to the side and finally pulled Lu Xiaoxiao out of the sand.

"Pah! Pah! I didn't burrow into the sand!"

Xiao Xiao, the somewhat embarrassed deer, first spat out the sand that he had accidentally swallowed into his mouth, and then cleaned the sand off his face.

"So what are you doing?"

"Digging for crabs! Look, I've already found quite a few."

Lu Xiaoxiao pointed to the bucket beside him, which indeed contained six or seven sand crabs.

"Unfortunately, the one I just encountered was too cunning. I dug for a long time but couldn't dig it out."

"Good fellow! You are amazing! I would have thought you were digging a tunnel here!"

Li Heng glanced at the ditch behind Lu Xiaoxiao that she had dug, which was five or six feet long and more than a foot deep. He was quite surprised.

"Since you can't dig this one up, won't you try another one?"

He didn't know whether to say that this girl was determined or stubborn.

"I won't! Today I will fight this little thing. Brother Li Heng, please move aside first. I will catch it even if I have to dig three feet into the ground."

Lu Xiaoxiao's strange competitive spirit was actually aroused by a small sand crab.

After pushing Brother Li Heng, who was in the way, aside, she picked up the shovel and prepared to start a new round of excavation in the previous cave.

"Wait a moment. I feel like the creature hiding in here isn't a sand crab. Let me test it out first."

As Li Heng spoke, he took out a jar of salt from his ring, scooped out a spoonful of salt and sprinkled it into the cave.

"Gulu~Gulu~"

After a few breaths, the entrance of the cave responded and some sea water gushed out.

"Haha, it's coming out! It's finally coming out! I want to see what's hiding in there."

Lu Xiaoxiao half-knelt on the sand excitedly and put his head close to the cave entrance.

A long, shelled object suddenly popped out of the cave like bamboo shoots after a rain.

"So it was you, little thing, who made me waste so much time."

As soon as the thing showed its head, the fearless Lu Xiaoxiao pulled it out of the cave, without caring whether the thing in his hand was poisonous or aggressive.

"Brother Li Heng, do you know it? And is it edible?"

Lu Xiaoxiao studied it for a while, but couldn't figure out what it was.

"Well, these are razor clams. They are edible."

Razor clams were not unfamiliar to Li Heng, because he had not only seen people catching them through the screen, but he had also bought them at the seafood market and even cooked them himself.

"Hehe! As long as it's edible."

Lu Xiaoxiao didn't care what it was called, the second half of the sentence was what she wanted to hear.

After putting the clams into the bucket, she asked Li Heng for a jar of salt and showed off her newly learned technique of catching clams to others.

Li Heng continued to look for edible seafood on the surrounding beaches.

"Brother Li Heng, look, we have found something new!"

Not long after Lu Xiaoxiao left, Xiao Chi came back again.

She was seen holding a living creature with both hands and trotting towards the direction where Li Heng was.

"Clap clap clap!"

The thing was not obedient at all in Xiao Chi's hand, and was still desperately hitting her arm with its tail.

"Oh my god! Where did you catch such a big mantis shrimp, Xiaochi?"

After seeing clearly what Xiao Chi was holding, Li Heng's eyes were filled with surprise.

The body is flat and well-proportioned, with seven abdominal segments and black and white stripes on the back, just like a zebra.

The most obvious feature is the pair of sickle-like pincers. Li Heng recognized the guy's true identity with just one glance.

She was surprised simply because the size of this thing was beyond her imagination.

The mantis shrimps that Li Heng had eaten in his previous life were all small shrimps that were only two or three inches long, but the one that Xiao Chi caught was more than a foot long.

"Mantis shrimp? What a strange name!" (Just look at this posture and tell me if it's mantis shrimp or not)

Xiao Chi was a little confused. Why did he feel inexplicably funny when he heard the three words "Pipi Shrimp"?

"Well, this is just a more intimate name! Actually, its scientific name is 'shrimp mantis'.

In addition, there are many common names, such as 'shrimp', 'mantis shrimp', 'mantis shrimp', 'fortune shrimp', etc. "

Li Heng listed several nicknames of mantis shrimp in one breath, then took the mantis shrimp from Xiao Chi's hand and weighed it. It was almost one kilogram.

Such a big mantis shrimp could be sold for at least four or five hundred yuan on Earth, but now he is too lazy to consider the price. Whether it tastes good or not is Li Heng's main concern.

"I really want to go back right now and steam this big mantis shrimp to taste it!"

However, thinking that there might be even greater gains later, Li Heng suppressed his inner excitement and decided to persevere.

"Hehe, I still think it's more interesting to call it 'Pipi Shrimp'."

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Chi finally chose the most popular name.

Compared to Li Heng's excitement, Xiao Chi seemed much calmer.

"Well done, Xiao Chi! Tell me, where did you find such a big mantis shrimp?"

Li Heng asked impatiently. Now that he had made such a great discovery, the sand crab he had just caught was not so attractive anymore.

"It's over there. This one was caught by Dabao. He wasn't sure if it was edible, so he asked me to bring it to you."

Xiao Chi pointed to the beach in the distance that was flooded by the sea and replied.

The area of ​​the beach that was not flooded was not very large, and when it was shared among dozens of people, it didn't take long for it to be searched completely.

So Bai Dabao and several other apprentices began to search gradually towards the sea.

Finally, we dug up this big guy on the beach where the water was less than a foot deep.
