Chapter 1312 Something is going on
There was something wrong with the fish roe they finally hauled aboard.
In addition to a few unpresentable small fish, there was also a colorful giant cuttlefish. Even after being pulled onto the deck, it was still waving its tentacles and spraying ink, looking very difficult to mess with.
Alva looked curious and wanted to move closer, but Gordon pulled him back, "Be careful or you might get dragged into the sea."
This thing can be considered a monster to some extent. If you get entangled in the sea, unless you are a hunter like Az who is particularly good at water combat, you will probably suffer some losses.
"Let me give it a quick death!" Ted laughed and raised his rifle.
Gordon quickly left Alva behind and held Ted down, "Do you want to blow up the boat and kill everyone?!"
Ted put down the cannon barrel in dissatisfaction. "I'm not stupid. Of course I won't use the dragon cannon on the ship. Can't I just kill it with the gun tip?"
"Come on, your finger was on the trigger just now!"
"Okay, the sea is our territory, so you don't have to worry about it." Az smiled and made a "don't worry" gesture to the two of them.
"This thing is actually quite delicious. It's not hard to kill if you know how to handle it. Don't move, or I'll make a mess of it.
Fish roe, I'll leave it to you." Az shouted while trying to stop his companions from doing anything wrong.
Yuzi secretly glanced at the pork chop who had drawn the cat sword, and whispered, "I can do it, meow."
As it said that, it pulled out its Thunder Dragon Cat Fork and ran towards the giant cuttlefish.
It nimbly dodged the cuttlefish's waving tentacles and arrived in front of it in the blink of an eye. It stabbed the cuttlefish's vital part between its eyes with its harpoon-like fork.
Electric arcs jumped on the cat fork, and the big cuttlefish twitched violently and died in the blink of an eye.
The skin, which was originally colorful and constantly changing in color, lost its vitality in an instant and turned into a lifeless gray-brown color.
"what?"
Alva exclaimed in surprise, "From colorful to dull? They are both creatures that can move in the sea. Are the completely different descriptions in the eyewitness reports caused by similar reasons?"
Gordon was stunned for a moment, then he realized what Alva was saying.
"You mean Ming Bo Long? It's not right that it fades due to death, right?"
Alva pushed up his glasses and said, "It doesn't necessarily mean death. Take cuttlefish for example. They are brightly colored and can change color and even glow because they have special pigment cells growing under their skin.
If Mingbo Dragon also possesses similar cells, then all those wildly different sightings can be explained."
Az also added: "If that's the case, there are many animals in the sea that can change color.
When encountering danger, being emotionally excited, and especially showing a strong desire to attack, the colors will mostly become brighter.
When it is calm, dormant, and hidden in the sand and rocks on the seabed, the color will become darker and lighter. "
"Well, this guess is more reasonable. I'll write it down."
Alva was busy writing and drawing in his notebook. Gordon and Ted had already surrounded the limp big cuttlefish.
Ted kicked the tentacles that were as thick as an adult's arm. "How did it die so quickly? I thought this thing would be more powerful."
Zhuchop glanced at him and said, "The fish roe attacks the cuttlefish's nerve center, just like piercing its brain. Of course, it dies instantly.
The movements are so neat and beautiful, meow."
In response to Pork Chop's praise, Yuzi's ears twitched and he looked a little blushing.
Gordon "tsk tsk" a few times, "It's really good. I mean this big cuttlefish, you can make pork chops, right? Why don't you show off your skills?"
Pork Chop's cat-like face was tense, "Cuttlefish meat itself doesn't have much taste, I eat it mainly for the texture.
It can be eaten grilled, fried, or made into sashimi.
But this thing is hard to handle, meow, there's a lot of slime meow."
Yu Zi whispered, "I can help with that, meow."
Born into a fish basket clan and having followed Az for several years, processing seafood is as common to it as eating and sleeping.
He took out a small and sharp fish-filleting knife and picked up the fish roe skillfully.
Gordon on the side continued to "tsk tsk".
He could see that Yu Zi seemed to have a good impression of Pork Chop, and there was even a hint of initiative in it.
On the contrary, the pork chop seemed more restrained.
Based on his understanding of this guy, if you say that it hates fish roe, that's definitely not the case, but to say that it has a good impression of it or likes it is not a big deal either.
After all, the two cats could only say they knew each other before, and they hadn’t even spoken a few words to each other.
In this way, there is no need for me to provide assists or anything like that. Just let them get along with each other for now.
At present, all we can say is that there might be hope.
Zhucha must like the gentle and generous type, otherwise he wouldn’t have fallen in love with Xianglan’s sister Shizhu so quickly.
Compared with fish roe and carnation, it may be less elegant and more simple and virtuous.
It’s up to the pork chop to make its own choice.
Pulling Ted, who still wanted to watch the fun, he continued fishing. Yu Zi also brought a small bucket with some cuttlefish viscera to send to Gordon and the others.
They say this thing is much better for fishing than the bait bought from the grocery store.
The rest, along with the scraps of skin and meat that were picked up, were fed to the pterosaurs on the same boat.
It is not clear what Pork Chop is thinking, but Gordon himself is becoming more and more satisfied with the fish roe.
After a lonely morning of fishing, the sun rose high and it was almost time for lunch.
After working for half a day on preparing pork chops and fish roe, they came over with several huge plates.
The cuttlefish rings, coated in egg liquid and breadcrumbs and deep-fried in oil, are a bit large in size and look like a steering wheel.
The grilled cuttlefish slab is grilled over charcoal and coated with a thick layer of pork chop special barbecue sauce. The thickness is also unusually thick, and you can't bite it if you open your mouth a little too wide.
Gordon, Ted and Az all enjoyed their meal, only Alva was in pain.
He found that he couldn't chew it.
It turns out that hunters' masseter muscles are more developed than those of ordinary people? !
Fortunately, there are other dishes as well. Thanks to the excellent knife skills for the pork chop, the cuttlefish sashimi is so thin that it is transparent and tastes great with a little spice salt.
There are also fish roe balls made by crushing large pieces of cuttlefish meat, boiling them in water, and making them very elastic.
The four people and two cats couldn't finish the cuttlefish, so Yu Zi cut the remaining cuttlefish meat into thin slices and strips, marinated it with salt and spices for a while, and then dried it into dried cuttlefish and cuttlefish sausages.
Looking at the fish roe who was busy climbing up the mast to hang the cuttlefish meat to dry, Gordon couldn't help but whispered: "Is the fish roe always so diligent?"
"Yes." Az picked his teeth, "The life of the Yulou tribe was not very affluent before, it and its people were like this, once they arrived at the sea, they couldn't stop.
The dried fish they make is delicious and is sold to the Old World as a specialty of the stars."
The sea breeze blew over the cuttlefish meat hanging on the mast to dry, and the salty and fragrant aroma with a hint of seafood permeated the deck.
Gordon chuckled a few times.
It’s no wonder that the dried fish and sausages are recognized by the sea dwellers of Moga Village. Not to mention the pork chops, he is already drooling.
Fish roe was a lucky coincidence, as that guy's favorite food was all kinds of dried fish and sausages.
