Water fish are soft-shelled turtles,

Lu Ao saw a soft-shelled turtle in the river, so he specially threw two pieces of pork liver into the ground cage to lure the fish.

If turtles are active in this area, they should be able to catch them.

Lin Qiyan's eyes lit up when he heard the soft-shelled turtle, "Then let's go over and have a look."

Lu Ao led the way with a bucket, and Lin Qiyan and Ge Ranzhou followed behind.

No one came here all the year round, and the grass was overgrown on both sides of the river, making it difficult for people to get down.

Especially in summer, there are many snakes and insects, and the blades of weeds are sharp. When people come over, they have to be more careful.

Lu Ao led the two of them forward.

After a while, we arrived at the place where the first ground cage was located.

Lu Ao's ground cage was thrown into the river, and one end was tied to a branch on the bank.

Lin Qiyan hurriedly took a close-up of the branch.

When he took the picture, he found that there was a black hornet's nest not far away. His heart trembled, and he hurriedly lowered the camera.

Lu Ao didn't care about the hornet's nest nearby. He planned to collect bee pupae after a while, so he kept it specially.

Carefully unwrapping the rope tied to the tree, Lu Ao slowly pulled the ground cage over.

Ge Ranzhou was amused, and hurriedly said, "I'll help too."

Lu Ao: "It's a bit heavy."

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll try first."

Lu Ao did not refuse, and handed him the cage rope in his hand.

Ge Ranzhou stood by the river and pulled hard, but the ground cage was much heavier than he imagined.

He didn't pull up the ground cage, so he slipped and almost fell into the river.

Fortunately, Lu Ao was on guard all the time, seeing him even tilted, he directly lifted his arm to lift him up.

Ge Ranzhou was almost lifted off the ground by him.

When he regained his footing, Ge Ranzhou had lingering fears, "Why is it so heavy?"

Lu Ao took the ground cage, "The big ground cage I put in may have a lot of fish in it."

Ge Ranzhou wiped off his sweat, and didn't dare to be brave anymore, he took a few steps back honestly and stood behind Lu Ao.

Lu Ao was much stronger than him, and he was able to pull up the ground cage with ease. After a while, he pulled the first few sections ashore.

Ge Ranzhou stared, excitedly said: "Fish, there are fish! I saw it."

Lu Ao looked down, "They are all tilapia and scavengers."

These two kinds of fish are the most numerous, and they are already flooded, and they often occupy the living environment of local fish.

When Lu Ao caught these two kinds of fish, no matter how big or small they were, they would not let them go. Instead, they would take them back and beat them into pieces, then mix them with millet and feed them to the geese.

Ge Ranzhou continued to watch.

After a while, Lu Ao pulled up the whole cage.

In addition to scavengers and tilapia, there are also many small miscellaneous fish and crabs.

Lu Ao shook the ground cage and poured the contents into the bucket.

When shaking to a certain point, he felt a round hard object.

When it was poured out, it turned out to be a big soft-shelled turtle.

This soft-shelled turtle weighed at least two or three kilograms. After being caught, it stretched its neck vigorously and opened its mouth to bite people.

Ge Ranzhou originally wanted to catch it, but when he saw it, his chrysanthemum tightened, "It's so fierce!"

Lu Ao grabbed its carapace from behind, "It's okay, not too fierce."

Lin Qiyan patted on the side and said, "I really didn't know we had soft-shelled turtles here."

"Where there is water, there may be." Lu Ao threw the turtle into the bucket, and then went to dump the other fish and shrimp in the cage.

This river is connected to the sea, which is considered to be a confluence of brackish and fresh water, and fish and shrimps have always been plentiful.

Lu Ao poured out all the contents, and a ground cage contained at least ten catties of fish.

Pick out all the fish fry inside and throw them back into the water, no small shrimps or crabs, just big fish, big shrimps and big crabs.

The crab caught today gave Lu Ao a big surprise. In addition to blue crabs, there were also several mitten crabs, that is, hairy crabs.

He is used to eating both river and sea crabs, but Song Zhou prefers river crabs.

The river crab is relatively sweet.

Lu Ao pulled a few pieces of grass next to him and tied up all the crabs he caught, so as not to prevent the crabs from fighting in the bucket and breaking their legs.

Ge Ranzhou saw that there were two pig livers in the ground cage.

The pork liver was eaten by fish and shrimp, but it was not completely eaten. The remaining pork liver was left in the ground cage, exuding a strong fishy smell, which was not good.

Ge Ranzhou asked: "Do you want to pour out these two pieces of pork liver?"

"No, just stay there to lure the fish."

As Lu Ao said, he had already thrown all the small fish and shrimps in the bucket back into the river, so he took the ground cage again, stood on the bank and threw it away.

The cage spread out to form a straight line in the river.

After throwing away the ground cage, Lu Ao continued to tie the tail of the ground cage to the tree by the river, and then took them to collect another ground cage.

The harvest of the other ground cage was similar to that of this ground cage, but there were no soft-shelled turtles.

Lu Ao glanced at it, but didn't care.

For soup, one soft-shelled turtle is enough.

The sky gradually darkened, and several people went back home.

When we got out of the river, it was almost six o'clock, the evening wind picked up, and there were more mosquitoes.

Ge Ranzhou looked at the buzzing mosquitoes in the sky and got goosebumps. He wiped his arm, "Why are these mosquitos so powerful?"

"Don't be afraid, these are male mosquitoes." Lin Qiyan comforted him, "They suck tree sap and don't bite."

"real or fake?"

"Really, those small, pitch-black things that look like small beetles only bite people." Lin Qiyan said as he grabbed them and only showed him, "But you keep moving around, there is a chance that they can bite you Also small."

Mosquitoes are the most numerous in the evening, especially at night, when the mosquitoes buzz over and overwhelm the sky, if you are not used to it, your scalp will feel numb when you see it.

Ge Ranzhou stayed at Lu Ao's house for the past few days, and he hardly saw any mosquitoes. At first glance, he felt goosebumps.

Lu Ao looked at him, "If you're afraid, I'll find you some leaves and rub them on your skin."

"Does this work?"

"Yes, it is useful to wipe leaves, yellow mud, and something on the skin."

Ge Ranzhou was really moved when he heard the words, but after observing for a long time, he didn't see any insects really biting him. After being moved for a while, he was still too lazy to do anything, so he had to give up.

The three of them walked along the main road and saw the village after a while.

Lin Qiyan asked, "What are you going to do with this turtle?"

"Kill a chicken and stew it in chicken soup."

"Hey hey hey, stewed chicken soup is pretty good. You don't have any chickens. I'll bring a chicken over later, shall I? You can borrow a soft-shelled turtle to take a picture with me."

"Do you have any at home?"

"Yes, my grandma has a large brood of chickens, and they usually put them outside to find food for themselves. Authentic free-range chickens are best for stewing soup. I'll catch them for you later."

"Alright. You can bring your grandma over for dinner later."

"Okay, I'll ask her."

Lin Qiyan wanted to go back to get the chicken, so he simply put the camera at Lu Ao's house, got on his motorcycle and went.

Seeing his excited back, Ge Ranzhou shook his head.

Lu Ao poured the fish and shrimp caught today into a large basin for sorting.

The tilapia and the scavenger are put aside, and they will be packed in bags later, stuffed into the freezer to freeze, and if they freeze to death, they will be taken out in the morning and smashed into pieces to feed the geese.

Take out the shrimp and crab and put them in another bucket.

At night, you can stir-fry spicy crabs and fried prawns in oil.

As for some small miscellaneous fish, you can fry them and stir-fry them.

And finally the turtle.

Lu Ao pinched its carapace to lift it up and put it on the scale to weigh it.

Ge Ranzhou leaned over, "Three catties and two taels, not bad."

Lu Ao weighed it, the turtle is big enough, "I'll eat it tonight."

"Eat now, don't you want to vomit dirty things for a few days?"

Lu Ao was surprised, "Who told you this theory?"

"No one." Ge Ranzhou was a little embarrassed, "I guessed it myself, those shrimps and crabs, don't they all want to vomit dirty things?"

Lu Ao glanced at him, "I don't need it, and I don't eat its internal organs. Why do I need to vomit dirty things? Only snails are used."

Ge Ranzhou rubbed his nose, "Okay. Then what should I do with the turtle? It retracts its head, should it be bitten by chopsticks?"

"No, there are not many chopsticks." Lu Ao said, "Besides, turtles may not necessarily hold on to their chopsticks, just chop them."

Ge Ranzhou originally wanted to ask how to chop it up directly.

The next moment, I saw Lu Ao took the turtle to the kitchen, put it in the washbasin and brushed it inside and out for a long time, after it was cleaned, he put it on the cutting board.

Ge Ranzhou watched helplessly as Lu Ao put his left hand in front of the turtle, and while the turtle was looking to bite him, he raised the knife and dropped it. With a "clang", the unlucky turtle left its head on the chopping board.

Simple and clean.

This operation end is sturdy.

Seeing Ge Ranzhou, he shrunk his neck quietly.

After the soft-shelled turtle was killed, Lu Ao lifted its back armor from the side, then scalded it with boiling water to tear off the outer armor.

He was skillful in his movements, but after more than ten minutes, he finished handling the big turtle.

At this time, Lin Qiyan had just grabbed an old hen, and hurried over on his bicycle in a state of embarrassment.

As soon as he entered the door, he said: "My grandma said it's no trouble, she can just eat at home."

Lu Ao nodded and took the chicken, "You will bring a pot of soup back later."

Lin Qiyan smiled and did not refuse, "Then what are we going to do now? Shall I kill the chicken?"

Lu Ao looked at him, "You know how to kill chickens?"

Lin Qiyan really didn't know it, he touched his nose and said nothing.

Lu Ao said, "Go and shoot your video."

Lin Qiyan quickly agreed.

Lu Ao took the chicken to kill, but within 8 minutes, the chicken was cleaned up and placed in the basin, together with the soft-shelled turtle.

Lu Ao washed the pot, put the soft-shelled turtle and chicken into the pot under cold water, without any seasoning in it, and boiled it directly.

After the water boils, skim off the froth with a spoon, and then simmer slowly.

After boiling for a while, the soup turns a clear light yellow color.

Then an indescribable sweet fragrance permeated the whole yard.

Lin Qiyan swallowed quietly while patting.

He had heard of soft-shelled turtle stewed chicken, but he didn't expect the stewed soup to be so fresh.

This delicious taste is completely unimaginable, and the ingredients inside are ugly soft-shelled turtles.

It really doesn't tell what it looks like.
