Groups of crabs, as wide as an adult's forearm and as if they were works of art made of rubies, occupied wherever Zheng Yuan could see.
Perhaps because they live in an environment without natural enemies, ruby crabs, which are extremely rare on land, are not only rampant here, but also have no sense of vigilance. When they saw Zheng Yuan, this strange creature, not only did they not run away, but they crawled in like a precious animal. The area around Zhengyuan is like tourists watching monkeys in a zoo.
Putting his hands together, with gratitude for the ingredients, Zheng Yuan reached out and grabbed the ruby crab closest to him.
"Click!"
After knocking the crab unconscious, Zheng Yuan easily broke it open at the joints. The translucent shell of the ruby crab was removed by Zheng Yuan, revealing the inside full of paste. Suddenly, an extremely rich crab fragrance poured into Zheng Yuan's nasal cavity, which attracted his attention. Zheng Yuan's mouth watered.
After removing the crab's stomach, Zheng Yuan used the ruby crab's legs as chopsticks to eat the crab paste on the shell.
Zheng Yuan once caught a sapphire crab in the Melk Forest. Just hearing the name, most people would think that it is of the same genus as the ruby crab, but in fact it is not. Most food creatures are named based on their appearance, such as tiger crabs. The chicken head and body are called tiger chicken, and the fish with lobster arms are called lobster fish. Some of them are named after the discoverers, such as a seasoning named after Nanxi wood and a mushroom named after Zheng Yuan.
So sapphire crab and ruby crab are two completely different types of crabs. There are many crabs named after gems, such as emerald crab, pink gem crab...
Naturally, there are differences in taste. Unlike sapphire crab, which is full of sea flavor, ruby crab paste is extremely delicious. Even if it is eaten raw, there is no fishy smell. The mouth is filled with the unique umami taste of crab. It is fresh, sweet and delicious, with endless aftertaste.
After eating the ointment, the next thing is the meat. Pull the meat out of the shell, like a stuffed toy untied from a vacuum bag. It suddenly expands. The white meat is filled with rich juice. Zheng Yuan raises his head and takes the crab. He put his legs upright and put it into his mouth. Suddenly, Zheng Yuan trembled all over, exhausted.
Unlike crab paste, the texture of crab leg meat is extremely contradictory. It is both juicy and chewy. Sweet juice bursts out with every bite, but the meat is as chewy as dried squid.
"tasty!"
After swallowing it in one gulp, Zheng Yuan shouted loudly with his eyes shining brightly. He looked at the crabs that were agitated and wanted to flee because of him. His eyes were green and full of greed, and then he pounced on his food like a cheetah.
...
"tasty."
Leaning on the hill made of ruby crab shells, Zheng Yuan narrowed his eyes with satisfaction, watching a few crabs that had understood the dangers of the world escaping hastily.
"Okay, it's time to deal with the real owner of the snake den."
Zheng Yuan stood up and patted his butt, turned around and looked behind him. A huge man was looking at him quietly at this moment.
Detection: The scorpion demon cow, belonging to the genus Bovidae, lives in rocky areas. Different from its ferocious appearance, it is a gentle creature on the inside that likes to eat soil and rocks. It will allow weak creatures to live in its own territory, but if it is oneself When entering a strong enemy's territory, it will become violent until the strong enemy is repelled or it is repulsed, and it will succumb to the strong one. It has medium intelligence, parthenogenesis, and strong recovery ability. Juveniles will live in a safe place and grow up. After that, she will give birth to a child and then go to a distant tribe. Height: 34.41 meters, weight: 56.42 tons (see details).
Capture level: 134.
Edible status: Edible, meat: 54.8 kcal/g, the meat of the body is extremely hard, but the meat under the shell of the tongs contains extremely delicious food and an abnormally high nutritional content.
Cooking method: The current best method is to crack the shell, mix cooking wine and white wine in a ratio of 4:1, add ginger, garlic and green onions, put tongs in it and marinate for 56 minutes (see details).
Zheng Yuan scratched his head as he looked at the monster in front of him, which had horns on its head, stood up on its own, had eight-pack abs and large crab-like pincers.
"After the appetizer, it's time to have the main meal. What about uncle? He won't ask me to come here just to work as a coolie, right?"
After looking around, Zheng Yuan thought thoughtfully and found that a certain bearded man was missing.
"..."
The Scorpion Demon Bull was different from other monsters. It didn't show the anger of declaring war. It just silently picked up its own food with its pliers, and then smashed it towards Zheng Yuan.
"Don't throw your food away!"
Zheng Yuan looked at the boulder hitting him like a meteorite and complained, then punched directly. The roaring wind easily penetrated the boulder, and the broken stone bypassed Zheng Yuan and hit the ground.
Looking up at the spot, the huge body of the Scorpion Demon Bull suddenly disappeared, and then the huge figure stood silently behind Zheng Yuan like a ghost. The pliers did not open, but stabbed directly at Zheng Yuan.
"How can it be?"
Zheng Yuan was shocked. Such a huge body could move at such a speed under dozens of times the gravity? How can it be!
The ice block that appeared out of thin air blocked the Scorpion Demon Bull's pincers, and was easily broken, reappeared, and was broken again. In this cycle, the ice block bought Zheng Yuan almost insignificant time, and then even this 0.1 second was gone. The time was enough for Zheng Yuan to roll on the spot and use this invincible frame to avoid the Scorpion Demon Bull's jab.
"You, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, can still carry out sneak attacks?"
Zheng Yuan stood up a little mortified, and said angrily, if he hadn't reacted quickly, a piece of his waist would be missing right now!
"..."
The Scorpion Demon Bull remained silent and raised another pincer to sweep towards Zheng Yuan. The fist that attacked before retracted its body and waited for the next attack.
The golden energy chopsticks condensed in his hands, Zheng Yuan blocked them in front of him, and then there was a slight sound of the chopsticks breaking and a loud sound of an object being embedded in the wall.
"cough!"
After coughing and vomiting some blood, Zheng Yuan pushed himself out of the gap in the wall, and then looked at the scorpion demon cow who was standing there, looking at the pliers that were not attacked but were inexplicably twisted, and smiled.
"Doesn't it feel good? It's like an improvement, counterattack with spiral power!"
He connected the broken chopsticks in his hands, and when they returned to their original state, the Scorpion Demon Bull's injury was almost healed. Before the Scorpion Demon Bull could attack again, Zheng Yuan rushed towards the Scorpion Demon Bull with his long chopsticks.
"It's my turn!"
Holding the chopsticks high with both hands, the translucent ice condensed on the tip of the chopsticks to form the shape of a spear head, Zheng Yuan stabbed the scorpion demon cow straight in the eye.
