Chapter 257: How Does It Taste?
d, the door suddenly slammed open with a bang. From outside came Shen Li's voice, urgent and flustered."Zong Gege, is Jinxiu Jie awake""If she's awake, could you please ask her to come take a look at...Zongyu took Jinxiu's hand and took off his own outer garment, wrapping it around her. With clothes on, the awkwardness between them lessened.
Fang Jinshu hurriedly took the fish from his hand, using it to divert his attention.
"I didn't expect there to be such a big fish in this pond. The water here is so clear, I didn't see it just now."
"What kind of fish is this It doesn't look like the ones sold at the market," Fang Jinshu asked Zong Yu.
She thought this place was different from her original world, and it was normal for the species to be different.
This fish was unlike any she had ever eaten or seen before.
Zhong Yu also shook his head.
I've never seen this kind of fish.
Fang Jinxiu was reluctant to let go of the fish. “We rarely get to eat fish living in the mountains. Why don't we take this one back and try if it's edible If it is, we can catch all of them.”
"Don't bother, just wait a moment for me," Zongyu smiled.
He climbed onto the edge of the pond and soon gathered a pile of firewood beside it to light a fire.
"Throw the fish to me."
Fang Jinxiu hurriedly passed the fish to Zong Yu. Zong Yu took out the dagger he always carried and cleaned the fish thoroughly. He skewered it on a branch and roasted it right there.
Fang Jinshi smiled, remembering that she had collected a lot of ingredients in her space. She quickly took them out.
"Zongyu, throw this up."
She tossed the ingredients over, Zongyu caught them with a glance and chuckled, “Forgot you had another space to store these.”
Of course, flavorful fish is more fragrant than tasteless fish.
This left Fang Jinshu without the desire to take a bath anymore. After washing herself clean, she climbed out of the pool. She put on her own clothes and casually placed Zong Yu's clothes next to the fire to dry.
He sat down beside him.
"Ah Yu, can you really eat this fish"
Fang Jinshi was a little uncertain because the scales of this fish were unlike those of ordinary fish, shimmering with a faint silver and its body tending towards transparency.
The fish tail was still red.
It resembles both a carp and the small silverfish I saw in my past life.
Could a silver fish be this big
Zongyu was taken aback; he wasn't sure if this fish was edible or not.
Fāng Jǐnxiù's eyes lit up, "I got it!"
She took out her silver needles, "Silver needles can be used to test poison. I don't know if they work on fish, but they definitely work on snake venom."
"Then let's give it a try," said Zongyu, nodding.
She used silver needles to prick all over the fish. After finishing, she picked up the silver needle and waited for a moment.
The silver needle didn't change color, Fang Jinshu felt much more at ease.
"It's okay, it's okay. I can eat."
As they were preparing the poison, the fish had been grilled over fire and a faint aroma of fish was slowly wafting out.
Fāng Jǐnxu sniffed the air vigorously, a hint of surprise in her expression.
It smells pretty good.
Zongyu grilled the food very skillfully. Fish is easy to cook, and under his skillful handling, a fish was quickly cooked and seasoned at the end.
I didn't expect this fish to be so fat, it was actually sizzling with oil when it was being roasted.
Just as both of them hadn't eaten dinner that night, Fang Jinshu originally had an empty stomach. Smelling this fish-flavored dish, her mouth was watering.
"So fragrant! I didn't expect this fish to smell so delicious when roasted, and there's even a hint of fruity aroma."
Zongyu saw that she was craving it, so he directly handed the freshly grilled fish to her.
"Have a bite."
Fang Jinshu, with eyes full of anticipation, took the fish and, ignoring the heat, tore off a long strip of fish meat with her bare hands and offered it to Zong Yu's mouth.
"You've worked hard all day, you have the first bite."
Without a word, Zong Yu took the fish meat from Fang Jinshu's hand and bit into it, chewing loudly.
Fang Jinshu looked at him expectantly, "How does it taste"
Zongyu is a very patient person. When he eats, there isn't much expression on his face, so you can't tell if it's good or bad.
After eating the fish meat, Zong Yuchao smiled brightly towards Fang Jinxiu.
"Delicious."
What he said was too bland, leaving Fang Jinshu half believing and half doubting.
But looking at your expression, it doesn't look very appetizing.
She herself tried to bite a piece of fish. The moment the fish entered her mouth, she was amazed! It melted in her mouth!
The fish skin was crispy, but the fish meat was surprisingly tender.
With a hint of fruit and milk fragrance!
Wow, what a godly fish! It's so delicious, she can't stop eating. While she eats, she keeps telling Zongyu about how good it is.
"Let's grill a few more! They taste so good!" lovingly touched the crossbow, looking at it back and forth.Nodding along while watching."Yes, although I've never touched it before, I've seen the blueprints and know how to operate it.""When I was...
