Not knowing what happened, the eel landed on the grass and looked at Yang Xiao. It opened its mouth wide and showed its sharp teeth, as if it wanted to attack, but it was not as strong on the grass as in the water.
This is definitely the most ferocious eel Yang Xiao has ever seen in his life.
"Damn it, you scared your grandpa. I'm going to make you a stew today."
Yang Xiao waved the foot-long watermelon knife in his hand, eager to try on the eel.
Huang Wen was the bravest one and rushed over with a shovel. She was quite surprised when she saw the eel with thick arms.
When Yang Xiao saw it, he quickly took the shovel from Huang Wen's hand and patted the eel on the grass.
The eel seemed to know how powerful it was, and quickly turned around and swam towards the pool.
"It's not that easy to run away."
Yang Xiao slapped the air with a shovel, then rushed forward and slapped it hard again.
boom!
The blow was strong and hit the eel's back directly. The huge eel squeaked, turned around and bit Yang Xiao.
Yang Xiao took an urgent step back and slapped the shovel in his hand again, hitting the eel directly on the head with a bang.
This time, the eel's head was flattened and it lay twitching on the grass.
Yang Xiao held the shovel upright and chopped off the eel's head. The shovel chopped off half of the head, blood flowed, and the huge eel finally died.
Yang Xiao was excited, surprised, and excited. He sat down on the grass, his little heart pounding and breathing heavily.
Huang Wen and the other girls were so frightened that no one dared to step forward.
At this moment, Chen Lu suddenly screamed:
"Yang Xiao, run quickly, the monster in the pool is out again."
Yang Xiao was startled. He looked up and saw waves splashing in the pool dozens of meters away. A huge fish fin emerged from the water and swam towards it quickly.
How dare Yang Xiao continue to stand on the shore and run uphill in pee, while the girls screamed and ran further away.
Yang Xiao ran for tens of meters and was already far away from the pool. He didn't feel any monster chasing him behind him. According to his understanding, since it was a monster in the water, it shouldn't leave the pool.
Yang Xiao looked back, and sure enough, the huge fin stopped more than ten meters away from the shore of the pool, stirring the water and rolling continuously.
Yang Xiao took a deep breath and calmed down. He felt much calmer when he saw that the giant monster in the water did not jump to the shore, but just swam around on the shore.
Huang Wen and others ran further, and everyone felt that Yang Xiao had not caught up. They looked back and found Yang Xiao standing on the bank in a daze, so everyone stopped.
"Yang Xiao!"
Huang Wen shouted loudly.
Yang Xiao turned around and waved to them, "It's okay. Come back."
"Is it really okay?"
"I'm so confused. When have you ever seen a fish come ashore?"
The girls were stunned, there seemed to be some truth to what they said.
Seeing that Yang Xiao was indeed standing on the shore and posing no threat, they encouraged him and walked back together.
Everyone was still frightened, but they just stood on the shore and watched from a distance, refusing to go down to the grass on the bank of the pool.
Yang Xiao asked Huang Wen.
"How many taros have you dug?"
"It's probably about a dozen pounds, right?"
"Any more?"
"Also, but?"
"Afraid?"
Huang Wen and others nodded, it was definitely a lie if they were not afraid.
Yang Xiao didn't want to do it for him. If these girls couldn't pass this level, how would they survive after these creatures completed genetic mutations and became more aggressive?
Yang Xiao never thought that he would be responsible for them for the rest of his life, and she was not his wife.
"Today is the fourth day of the catastrophe. According to old man Gu Bo, all creatures will have completed their mutation in seven days. By then, it is estimated that they will not be able to come up this mountain. Now, while these creatures have not completed their mutation, it is because they are relatively weak. If you don’t store some food at this time, you will really have to wait to die in a few days.”
Upon hearing this, Huang Wen and others looked at each other. Facing the threat of future death, they gradually felt the courage to fight.
"It's up to you to dig or not. I have food to eat anyway. Besides, you only dig taros on the shore. Monsters in the water can't hurt you, right? You also know how Xiao Zhe and the others treated you. Wouldn't you rather To suffer that humiliation?”
One sentence set Huang Wen and others on fire.
Huang Wen, Chen Lu and others nodded to each other, and finally said firmly:
"Sisters, at worst, dying in the mouth of a monster is better than being insulted by those gangsters like Xiao Zhe, right?"
"Yes, we fought hard!"
"Okay, let's go together!"
The dozen or so girls suddenly became brave. Two girls were left to collect the filled water bottles, while the rest went to dig taro.
The three buckets of water Yang Xiao carried, plus a lot of water left on the shore yesterday, made everyone's water bottles full.
Yang Xiao carefully walked to the grass, picked up the huge eel, put it into an iron bucket, weighed it, and estimated it to be about 30 kilograms.
Before the catastrophe, this eel could probably apply for the Gillis Record.
Yang Xiao took a few large taro leaves, covered the iron bucket, and carried it ashore.
The giant monster in the pool no longer appeared.
Huang Wen and a dozen other girls went into battle together and dug dozens of kilograms of taro.
During the process of digging taro, everyone also saw various mutated creatures, such as earthworms, which became like eels and were tens of centimeters long, and various reptiles in the grass, which had significantly increased in size several times.
If not for the threat of hunger, the girls would have dropped their shovels and run away.
Now they are digging alone, with three people around them helping to eliminate various mutant insects. The only thing they can do is fortunate that these mutant insects do not seem to be aggressive for the time being.
Yang Xiao was thinking that perhaps these creatures were in the process of mutation. Once the mutation was completed, they might not be so docile.
"The taro stems are also edible. Let's drag them directly to the shore of the pool and then dispose of them."
Yang Xiao ordered.
Yang Xiao is a rural child, so she naturally knows that taro stalks are edible. Several rural girls also know this. Everyone
Now that I saw the food, I suddenly felt stronger. After a while, I dragged all the dug out taro and its leaves to the shore.
"Don't be afraid of the bitterness. Separate the taro from the stems first. Put the taro in a bag. The stems can be taken back to dry in the sun and can be cooked and eaten later."
Yang Xiao said, and took out two of his watermelon knives and handed them to Huang Wen and others. The watermelon knives were finally put to use.
Soon, everyone packed the taro and stems separately.
The taro was packed into a woven bag, estimated to weigh about a hundred kilograms, and four girls carried it down the mountain.
Taro stalks were packed into three woven bags.
There were also dozens of bottles of bottled water. Everyone carried the water on their shoulders and walked down the mountain singing and laughing, sweeping away the previous depression.
Yang Xiao walked behind carrying an iron bucket.
Huang Wen saw Yang Xiao's iron bucket covered with taro leaves and asked:
"What's in the barrel?"
"delicious."
Yang Xiao smiled mysteriously.
Huang Wen was stunned and her expression changed.
“I won’t do that”
Yang Xiao nodded.
Huang Wen was still frightened and asked in a low voice:
"Can I eat it?"
"It might work."
For foodies in China, what animals cannot be eaten?
Of course, Yang Xiao was still going to ask Gu Bo from the gene store whether the mutated eel could be eaten. If it could be eaten, he would not miss such a delicious food.
