From the performances of Yang Mo and Lei Hong, everyone realized that fish is definitely a delicacy. Nangong Bingyu directly suggested that he enjoy the caught fish himself and not sell it.
No one had any objections to this, especially since they had never tasted fish, so they naturally did not want to give it to others.
"Well, which of you can cook fish?"
Yang Xiao looked at everyone with a troubled look on his face: "I have never eaten fish before, and I don't know how to cook it."
Then Yang Xiao glanced at everyone, and everyone he saw shook their heads. It was obvious that they didn't know how to cook fish. In the end, he could only focus on the first night.
"Well……"
He was stunned on the first night, and he said angrily: "Don't look at me, I can't even cook rice. Do you think I can cook fish?"
"Oh, you can't even cook, how will you live in the future?"
Yang Xiao looked at Qi Ye and Nangong Bingyu thoughtfully. After understanding the meaning, the two of them turned red and forgot to retort for a moment.
"Well, let's get down to business. Let's think about how to cook the fish, otherwise we will have to sell it."
On the first night, he tried hard to think of words. As he spoke, he looked at Yang Mo, with a hint of 'threat' in his tone.
Thinking about it, Yang Mo and Lei Hong are the only ones who have eaten fish among the people. The latter obviously can't cook, so naturally they can only watch Yang Mo's.
"Hey, boy, why, threaten me, do you think I will compromise and make fish for you if you say this?"
Yang Mo sneered, but he almost drooled when he said this. It was obvious that he had been manipulated by the first night.
"What, you won't compromise?"
Lei Hong's tone was suggestive, with a hint of amusement on his face, but more of an urging.
"me……"
Yang Mo was speechless, and for a moment he didn't know how to refute.
"Okay, Dad, stop watching and cook us fish quickly."
Yang Xiao couldn't help but urge him, and at the end he didn't forget to add a surprise: "You've been eating us all the way here. You're so embarrassed to let me cook a meal for me. No, I'm cooking a fish." Maybe."
"You're looking for a beating, now you're trying to destroy me."
Yang Mo kicked Yang Xiao out, but he still took the fish. He looked at everyone and asked: "Steamed, braised, barbecued or cooked?"
“Steamed!”
Yang Xiao climbed to his feet and stood up, while not forgetting to make his request.
"Barbecue seems good too."
Yasha said casually: "And it seems easier."
"The braised eggplant seems to taste better. The braised eggplant is delicious."
Murong Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and said.
"Well, the fish dumplings seem to be pretty good too."
Long Yuan also made his request after hesitating for a moment.
Next, Second Meng and the others also proposed their favorite flavors, and then they looked at Nangong Bingyu, because she was the only one who didn't speak.
"Well, can you have one of each flavor?"
Nangong Bingyu was a little hesitant and a little shy, rarely acting like a little daughter.
"Well, you really dare to make demands."
Yang Mo said angrily: "I am willing to do it, but do you have time to wait? It will probably take two or three hours to make these kinds of fish."
“You can wait for the delicious food.”
Nangong Bingyu spoke categorically, and her words were immediately echoed by everyone.
"If you can wait, I can't wait. I'm almost starving to death. Aren't you hungry?"
Yang Mo said angrily. After pondering for a while, he said: "Considering that it is your first time to eat fish, you probably don't like sashimi. It's better to listen to Xiaoxiao's advice and braise the fish first, and then try to make other things in the future."
Immediately, the stomachs of those who waited for the first night began to growl unsatisfactorily.
"Uh, okay."
After hesitating for a moment, Nangong Bingyu finally made a compromise. She was also very hungry now.
Nangong Bingyu made a compromise, and the others naturally had no objections. Then they watched Yang Mo cooking fish with curiosity. It was obvious that they all wanted to learn from him, including the first night.
Yang Mo took out various knives and skillfully scraped the scales and disemboweled the fish. His movements were skillful and his knife skills were superb. It was obvious that he was as skilled in cooking as Yang Xiao and Yang Ling.
"Let me tell you, what you eat when eating fish is its umami taste, so it is best to catch the fish freshly. Even if you put the fish in a storage ring, the umami taste and meat quality will be somewhat compromised."
Yang Mo imparted his experience while handling the fish: "Braised fish is very particular about the heat and seasonings, especially the cooking wine..."
Yang Mo talked endlessly, and it was rare for everyone to listen patiently, especially Yang Xiao. He even took out a notebook and wrote it down one by one. Seeing him like this, he was more attentive than practicing.
After finishing the process quickly, Yang Mo put the cut fish into the pot, and then added various seasonings according to the steps he said. As the fire burned quickly, a rich and delicious fragrance filled the air, which made people smell it. The index finger moved.
Seeing Yang Mo taking out a dazzling array of tools and various ingredients, Yang Xiao's eyes widened. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand to make it smoother, but was directly swatted away by Yang Mo, who had quick eyes and quick hands. This made the latter resentful. .
"If you want to get the ingredients yourself, I spent a lot of effort to get it. I even asked my brother and the others to help me find it."
Yang Mo said angrily, and put away the unused ingredients as he spoke, as if he was worried about being taken away.
"I would like to get it, but I also need to know where to get it."
Yang Xiao said angrily.
"These ingredients are hard to come by. Many of them are obtained in the wild, and some are specially prepared by me. Of course, some can be purchased in Los Angeles or other cities. You can always get them with a little effort."
Yang Mo was unusually patient. He spoke with great joy and was obviously very proud of what he said.
Yang Xiao listened very carefully and wrote down all the ingredients. Of course, he did not forget to ask Murong Xiaoxiao to help collect some plants that could be used as ingredients when searching for herbs.
Murong Xiaoxiao agreed wholeheartedly, and it was undoubtedly the wisest thing to let her do this, because she knew the best about various herbs and plants.
"I didn't expect that making braised fish is so particular and troublesome. I'm afraid the value of these ingredients alone far exceeds the fish."
Long Yuan was filled with emotion.
“Hey, it’s all worth it for the good food.”
Yang Mo didn't care.
"That's right."
Nangong Bingyu echoed, and as he spoke, he did not forget to ask how other fish were cooked, and also deliberately asked one of the first night generals to write them down.
"Grilling fish is the simplest thing. All you need is oil, salt and some cumin, and cumin is easy to get in nature."
Talking to myself on the first night.
"That's right, that's right."
Yang Xiao hurriedly agreed, and then he suggested: "Why don't we try grilling fish at noon or at night? I heard my father said that grilling fish is not so particular about the freshness of the fish. At least there is no fish soup or braised fish. It’s more demanding and a little easier.”
Yang Xiao's proposal was immediately echoed by everyone. Of course, this had a precondition - it depended on whether Xiao Jin could catch another fish.
Just as he was talking, Xiao Jin in the distance dived into the water again, and a moment later another fish was caught, and this one was a Yellow River carp more than half a meter long.
Seeing this scene, everyone was overjoyed. They knew that the grilled fish for the evening and the future was planned.
Nangong Bingyu was responsible for putting the Yellow River carp into the storage ring, and later gave Xiao Jin a piece of porcupine meat as a reward, and Murong Xiaoxiao was not stingy in praising her.
After receiving the praise, Xiao Jin let out a proud cry, and then circled up to catch fish.
Seeing Xiao Jin being praised, Xiao Bai was a little unhappy. He dashed towards the big lake, obviously he also wanted to catch fish.
It's just that Xiao Bai doesn't have the sharp eagle eyes like Xiao Jin and can't see through the underwater situation, so he flops around for a while without catching any fish, which makes everyone burst into laughter.
Xiaobai became angry from embarrassment, roared, a terrifying aura circulated, and the bone-chilling ice-attribute Qi filled the air, easily freezing the surrounding lake surface, and it was still spreading rapidly to the surrounding areas, as if it was going to freeze a large area of the lake surface.
Feeling the danger brought by the freezing lake water, the fish hiding in the water became anxious, jumped out of the water one by one, and then quickly escaped to the center of the lake.
After finally forcing these fish out, Xiaobai naturally would not miss such an opportunity. He jumped over in a flash and easily bit one of the fattest grass carps.
What's more, the bone-chilling coldness circulated and easily froze the lake water. The few fish that jumped out of the water were isolated and could not enter the water again.
Seeing this, Long Yuan and others were overjoyed. They rushed over without any need for Xiao Bai to greet them and easily pocketed the fish.
Although the fish caught by Xiaobai were smaller in size, they were more numerous, so the harvest was still very good.
"Xiaobai, good job."
Murong Xiaoxiao was not stingy in his praise. He looked at Nangong Bingyu as he spoke. The latter immediately understood and threw a piece of porcupine meat over.
Xiaobai devoured it in two or three bites, and then without hesitation, Xiaobai jumped towards the lake again.
In this way, Xiao Bai and Xiao Jin took action one after another. They easily caught a lot of fish, which was enough for everyone to eat for many days.
While Xiaobai and Xiaojin were fishing, they did not forget to control the drone to observe the large lake on the first night - understanding the environment here would facilitate the path they choose next.
"It seems that this lake is very big, at least stretching for hundreds of miles. We need to go around for dozens or even hundreds of miles."
On the first night, he told everyone what he had discovered.
"Wouldn't this waste most of the day?"
Yang Xiao blurted out that while doing this, he did not forget to cook vegetables and rice. This was contributed by Yang Mo. The white rice and braised fish were a perfect match. Smelling the stinginess of the rice, everyone was looking forward to it even more.
"Let's just take a detour. We are not in a hurry to get to Yin City anyway. Taking a detour will give us a better chance of discovering more powerful beasts."
Long Yuan said casually, and his words were echoed by Murong Xiaoxiao. The latter could look for herbs around the lake, so naturally he wanted to take a detour.
"There's no need to take a detour, we can just cross over."
Yasha said, she looked up at Xiao Jin who was flying again: "We are riding Xiao Jin, others are either Yu Dao or Yu Jian, even Nangong Beauty and Xiao Bai can freeze this big lake and we walk on the ice, where You need to go around it."
"That's right, directly across the lake."
Nangong Bingyu echoed: "Xiao Jin and Xiao Bai can continue fishing while crossing this big lake."
They also knew that the more fish they caught, the better, especially when they smelled the strong smell of braised fish, everyone agreed to Yasha's proposal. Long Yuan and Murong Xiaoxiao, who suggested a detour, also changed their minds.
Some people died, but not completely...
