"The tide is coming, the tide is coming!"

The tide watchers didn't care about being hit by the water spray, wiped the water drops on their faces, and looked at the surging tide with excitement. The narrow river channel seemed to limit the growth of the water dragon, so that the water dragon had to stand upright. Standing up, if you have to panic, the ferocious dragon's head comes surging.

The silver light in the water flashes, if the sunlight shines on the water droplets and reflects a little crystal light, if you don't look carefully, you can't even recognize that it is silver light, it's just white light passing by.

"Silver fish, it's silver fish!"

"Quick, catch it!"

The people on the shore were excited and anxious, wishing they could plunge into the water and catch silver fish in the water together with the wavers.

On one side of the bank, near the window of a small three-story building, several scholars were watching. One of them pointed at the whitebait and said, "Brother He, look, it is the most famous whitebait in Fuchuan. It's really extravagant to eat a whitebait banquet!"

"It's just a fish, what luxury is there?"

Brother He who was beside him said this, obviously not paying attention to it, but still a little curious. He came from Beijing and had heard of the reputation of whitebait a long time ago. I don't know, but to him, he felt a little angry at the whitebait, and he didn't want to have a good face with it in front of people.

Seeing Brother He like this, the scholar just smiled and waved the fan in his hand twice to explain to him the reason.

"This whitebait is not easy to catch, it has become fine. Only when the tide is like this is it easy to get it. If you catch it and don't eat it right away, it's not easy to feed it. It's really rare."

The young man on the side smiled when he heard the tasteless words: "The main reason is that it is delicious but rare, so it is rare."

The other person who gathered at the same place heard it and couldn't help shaking his head: "You two are still scholars, why are you a little less knowledgeable, don't you know that this whitebait has other benefits?"

As he spoke, he told a story about the legend about the whitebait. When it comes to the Fuchuan whitebait, he doesn’t know when it was born. The first person who caught the whitebait didn’t dare to eat it. , a line of silver in the abdomen, it looks weirder than other fish, what if it is poisonous?

At that time, the boat was sailing, and the fisherman was the boatman. Seeing the boatman catch such a strange fish, the scholar on the boat dared to eat it, so he asked the boatman to make it. As soon as it was bright, I wanted to swallow my tongue even more. In the next few days, it is said that the poems are a little more beautiful, and it seems that the brain is much smarter.

With scholarly propaganda, some people widely spread the goodness of whitebait, and later, this whitebait became more and more difficult to catch. Sometimes, when the river was calm, it was obvious that the whitebait was swimming in the water, and it was caught in a net. There is nothing, which is really puzzling.

There are even some people who think they are good at catching fish, even if they use bait, they can't do it right. The most annoying thing is that the bait is eaten, but the fish is not caught, and there is not even a scale.

Later, there were more Fuchuan legends. A large tomb was found nearby, and there were many silver leaf products in it, and whitebait appeared. Some people said that the whitebait was domesticated by the owner of the tomb, and got yin and yang in the tomb. Get out of trouble and become a delicious food in Fuchuan.

Someone made up a story about the goddess, saying that the whitebait was transformed by the goddess and contained divine power, which makes people feel sharp after eating it, which is quite extraordinary.

Whether eating whitebait can make people smarter is hard to say, but it is true that more and more people are willing to taste the deliciousness of whitebait, and it is precisely because of the high price that tide-gatherers dare to risk their lives on the tide Launch into the water to catch.

"Caught it, caught it!"

The shouts from below went straight to the sky. Some tide-makers had caught whitebait in their hands and were coming towards the shore. All the shopkeepers who had been waiting for a long time on the shore left the market one after another. All of them were looking forward to it. The diners watching the tide upstairs also poked their heads one after another, wanting to see if their restaurant can take down the whitebait, and try it first.

Every time this happens, various restaurants compete for bids, and some diners upstairs are unwilling to be lonely, raising their prices loudly, just to eat whitebait first and enjoy this rare delicacy.

That look of waiting for the rice to go to the pot is really a bit... Brother He shook his head slightly, seeing that some people are actually scholars, and felt that they lost their dignity, how dare they go so far?

At this time, the tide-gatherer had already landed, and everyone on the shore was arguing for the price. The tide-gatherer didn't wait for the highest price, and when he heard that the price was about the same, he immediately changed hands of the whitebait.

This whitebait is not as good as other fishes. After being kept for a while, after being caught, it is like that angry bird that can piss itself off alive. But once the whitebait dies, it doesn’t matter how much the taste is lost. With a discount, some people may still find it unlucky.

The same is to be slaughtered and eaten, the live ones to be eaten, and the dead ones to be eaten, which are two completely different prices.

It is best to sell the fish while it is still alive.

The shopkeeper who received the fish didn't care about complacency, killed the fish immediately, and hurriedly took it back to his own restaurant, and cooked it in the pot.

"Now we're lucky."

A scholar saw clearly that this was the shopkeeper of his own restaurant, and said so with a smile on his face.

The others followed suit and waited quietly.

A whitebait is not too big, after arriving at each restaurant, according to the bids of each diner, you can get whitebait meat of different value for use, and you can have a sip of fish soup at the last time, so you won’t wait for nothing.

Watching the tide and eating fish is the bargaining chip for the nearby restaurants to attract customers.

Not to mention other dishes, this method of cooking fish is really fragrant.

Soon, there was a fragrance from downstairs, and a scholar couldn't wait to say: "I knew it should be on the first floor."

In this way, what comes out of the kitchen can arrive at the table early.

This eager gesture made the rest of the people laugh, laughing, there are still many people in their hearts who have this idea, so they just don't say it.

Brother He finally ate the whitebait, he only took one bite, and he didn't care about talking afterwards. For a while, the chopsticks came and went frequently, until the plate was empty of soup, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and sighed facing the empty plate.

"Why sigh?"

"Without this fish in the future, the food will be tasteless."

These descriptions are probably also the feelings of those who tasted MSG for the first time.

Brother He's sentence "really fragrant" made everyone laugh.

Compared with these scholar diners in the restaurant, in a mansion near Fuchuan, a handsome young man is taking a chopsticks of fish meat into his mouth unhurriedly. The fish is no different, and the delicious taste is enough to aftertaste.

"I didn't expect these silver leaves to have such a role."

After finishing a meal and putting down his chopsticks, the young man couldn't help feeling that the foundation of his family's wealth lies in this whitebait.

It is true that whitebait is difficult to feed, but it is not impossible to live without the river. At first, his family raised fish in an enclosure in the river, but it was barely enough to meet his own needs. Later, his descendants became smart and discovered the secret of whitebait.

If you put one or two silver leaves in the fish tank, ordinary fish can grow whitebait, and if they are whitebait, you don't have to worry about them dying. Leaves, which they seem to have an unusual obsession with, feed on.

Whitebait is delicious, so does silver leaf taste the same?

After knowing this, the young man had such an idea, but unfortunately he was not able to obtain the silver leaves at that time. I don't know what kind of tree these silver leaves come from. They are very rare, much less than whitebait , and cannot be wasted at will.

It was only later, after gaining some power, that the young man could get one or two silver leaves that he could use freely. The first thing he did was to put the silver leaf in his mouth and chew its flavor.

The taste is not good, like ordinary grass, but there is an extra strand of pliability, which is hard to chew. The young man didn't spit it out, but he persevered. It's just because the silver leaf is hard-won, and it can only be obtained through untold hardships. Even Coptis chinensis has to be swallowed so as not to waste it.

Since his family background is so cherished, it can be seen that the silver leaf is precious.

Perhaps thanks to his perseverance, after swallowing the silver leaf, he felt his mind suddenly cleared up, that feeling was like being enlightened, he didn't realize what was so obvious, but really There is a feeling that the world is completely new before your eyes.

After reading and writing, there is a feeling of speeding up the reaction. With such a quick reaction, the young man gradually revealed his own talents, gained more attention, and once again owned a silver leaf. He looked at the silver leaf, After thinking for a long time, I finally sent it to my mouth.

Whether it is delicious or not is not the key, the key is that such "enlightenment" is really rare.

Every time he swallowed the silver leaf, there seemed to be an invisible hand guiding him to his usual unresolved thoughts, clearing away the fog in front of him, and seeing the real answer, what should he do.

Once is a coincidence, twice is an illusion, three times is a coincidence, four times, five times?

The young man became more and more curious about the origin of the silver leaf, but he still couldn't find out where the trees could produce such silver leaf.

In the dark, there seems to be an invisible connection that is gradually deepening. The young man didn't realize it, but under the guidance of that connection, he finally noticed the clues left by the Star Clan in history.

Following the investigation, it was confirmed that there is indeed a special race such as Star Clan, and the relationship between Star Clan and Silver Leaf.

"You said you can only have silver leaves if you are a star envoy?"

The young man asked, his eagerness was well concealed, and the questioner saw that he was not in a hurry, as if everything was under control, and he didn't dare to hide it, and told the whole thing.

This man is lucky, someone in his ancestors was lucky enough to get along with the star envoy, but unfortunately, they could not have children, and the relationship ended without a problem. Even so, the ancestors left a written record, when the two got along, Many things are not hidden from each other.

It's just that many things are unconvincing, and later generations will treat them as nonsense. Who would have thought that someone would pursue them, so I said them, hoping to get more benefits.

"If what you say is true, there will be a great reward..." The young man promised with deep eyes.

In the inner domain, the stars are still shining, and the priestess stands under the tree, looking at a star with only one leaf left, "Battle Star!"
