God of Thunder

Uncle Zhou said: "It's very difficult. You need special bait to catch this fish."

Zhou Xin has carefully arranged the bright fish, put it into boiling water, covered the pot, and said with a smile: "Brother Lei, it will be ready in a while. Ming fish is the best to cook. I begged Daddy to pick a few just now. The young shoots of Lusecao root, hee hee, adding Lusecao to fish soup is the real delicacy.”

Lei Xingfeng saw a handful of tender green plants in the small wooden basin next to him, which had been washed clean. These were all unknown to him. Whether it was fish or plants, he had never seen them before. Obviously they were from the local area. special product, he thanked again: "Thank you, Xiao Xin."

Zhou Xin said: "Brother Lei, you're welcome, we don't have any good things here, just a little lake freshness."

When the water boiled, the bright fish had already melted in the water. Zhou Xin threw away the fish bones, but there was nothing in the soup. A pot of white soup, but there was a strong smell of fresh fish. Xin stirred it with a wooden spoon and said, "Okay, Daddy, let's eat."

Uncle Zhou lifted the lid of a small wooden barrel. Inside was a wooden barrel of steamed rice and a large bowl full of smoked fish.

The staple food here is fish and rice, and rice is abundant here.

Apart from the porridge he ate yesterday, Lei Xingfeng came to this world, and it was the first time he ate fresh rice, which made him very moved. The color is light green, and the taste is much better than the previous life, extremely sweet.

For Lei Xingfeng's meal, he ate more than half of such a bucket of rice. Uncle Zhou and Zhou Xin were dumbfounded. This person is too good to eat.

Not only is the rice delicious, but the smoked fish is also very delicious. As for the bright fish soup, Lei Xingfeng almost ate it from a wooden bowl. No matter in this life or in his previous life, he has never had such a delicious fish soup.

According to Lei Xingfeng's food intake, this little rice and fish are only half full. You must know that when he was in Huyabao, he ate meat most of the time, and he usually ate very little food. Only by eating the meat provided by various wild beasts can he truly fill his stomach. After all, he is a cultivator, not an ordinary person.

Uncle Zhou looked at the rice bucket with a wry smile. This is the food for the day. Fish can be caught, but rice needs to be bought at the market. Generally, fishermen exchange all kinds of fish for rice. Rice is very expensive, and fish usually weighs seven or eight catties. It can be exchanged for a catty of rice.

Zhou Xin smiled and said, "Daddy is fine. I'll catch more fish. Brother Lei likes to eat rice. Let's just exchange some more rice."

Lei Xingfeng said: "Is there a place to buy rice here?"

Uncle Zhou said: "Yes, there is a big market here, and a large number of fishermen go to trade almost every day."

Lei Xingfeng nodded and said: "Okay then, let's go to the market and I'll buy some rice."

Zhou Xin doubted: "Brother Lei, you don't have any money with you. How did you buy rice?" His clothes were also torn into pieces, and even larger pieces could not be found. He was still wearing Daddy's clothes now.

Lei Xingfeng smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have a solution."

Although Zhou Xin was young, about thirteen or fourteen years old, and his build was also small, he was a typical ordinary person, but he was not stupid, and said, "What can I do? I'll go and catch more fish in exchange." He is a good fisherman.

Lei Xingfeng smiled and said: "Really, I have a solution, Xiao Xin, you have to trust me, I won't lie."

Uncle Zhou said: "Alright, we are going to the market just now, and there is not much salt left, so we have to change some salt back."

The fishermen here usually go to the market to exchange a few things, one is salt, the other is rice, and there are clothes and a very small amount of daily necessities. Their lives are very simple, they are completely for survival, and they have no other ideas.

Lei Xingfeng asked: "Uncle Zhou, where is your home?"

Uncle Zhou said: "Here,

Just on the boat, my home is this boat, during the rainy season, we will gather at the market, but we still live on the boat. "

Zhou Xin laughed out loud. He thought it was ridiculous to ask this question. Fishermen’s homes have always been on boats. There are very few lands here. They are all lakes and swamps. Fishermen here, a boat is a family, Uncle Zhou Because of special circumstances, he lives alone with his little nephew. The little guy's parents have passed away, so Uncle Zhou is his relative in this world.

Lei Xingfeng smiled and said: "I used to live in the mountains, this is my first time on a boat."

Uncle Zhou said: "Impossible, there are lakes for hundreds of miles here, and there have never been any mountains..."

Zhou Xin was very interested and said, "Mountain area? Is it fun?"

Lei Xingfeng said: "It's different from here, there are many beasts, very powerful beasts, and barbarians."

Zhou Xin said: "Barbarian? What is it? Is it a human?"

Lei Xingfeng said: "Are there no barbarians here?"

Zhou Xin shook his head and said, "I've never heard of it..."

Lei Xingfeng said: "That's not bad. There are no barbarians. Hehe, barbarians can be considered as human beings, but they are more barbaric. They eat anything, including people."

Zhou Xin opened his mouth wide and said in horror, "Cannibalism? Wow, Daddy, did you hear that barbarians can eat people?"

After a brief exchange with Uncle Zhou and Zhou Xin, Lei Xingfeng knew that this is a relatively peaceful area without too many wars and dangerous beasts. This is a rare paradise, very suitable for a simple life .

Uncle Zhou was finally persuaded by Lei Xingfeng, he returned to the stern, picked up the oars, and started rowing.

Zhou Xin also got busy. He put the dried lotus seeds into the cloth bag, and took out the dried fish in the cabin to sort out. The dried fish can also be exchanged for things. He also had a small cloth bag, which made a jingling sound. His treasure, which contains dozens of copper rings, is specially used to buy money that cannot be exchanged for things.

At noon the next day, the boat arrived at the market.

It is a building on the water. It is very spectacular from a distance. All kinds of uneven wooden houses are erected on the water. The thick logs are driven into the bottom of the lake. The bottom of the lake here is not deep, only three or four at most. The houses are connected to each other by wooden planks, the streets are the lake, and the means of transportation are all kinds of boats.

The climate here is hot, and fishermen are generally topless, with a pair of shorts, a fish basket tied around their waist, bare feet, weapons such as harpoons in their hands, and a few tattoos on their bodies.

As we approached the market, we saw countless boats gathering from all directions and rowing towards the market together.

This place gives Lei Xingfeng a peaceful atmosphere, and it is a good place to practice. He has made up his mind to try to advance to the real Milun real body here. After the battle, I was very clear in my heart that it would be very dangerous for a Tanlun teacher to walk outside. He now has a lot of resources, enough for him to cultivate.

Lei Xingfeng was also bare-chested, and he was also wearing linen shorts, but there was no fish basket tied around his waist, and there was no harpoon in his hand. He was carrying a cloth bag with dried lotus seeds in it. What a cultivator needs, this kind of lotus seeds is different from the lotus seeds he has seen in his previous life. It is light red in color and is a local specialty. Fire lotus seeds, a lotus pod on a lake, can produce a few catties of this kind of fire lotus seeds.

This bag of fire lotus seeds took Zhou Xin more than ten days to collect, and then peeled off and dried in the sun to get so many kilograms. According to Zhou Xin, these fire lotus seeds can be exchanged for a few silver rings, because of Lei Xingfeng. A foodie, Zhou Xin was forced to take out his treasure to exchange for rice, a catty of fire lotus seeds can be exchanged for a hundred catties of rice, so Lei Xingfeng was allowed to carry it.

Uncle Zhou carried hundreds of catties of dried fish and walked onto the springboard. Zhou Xin's fish basket contained dozens of bright fish, which was also very valuable.

The three of them walked on the boards in front of the wooden house and soon came to a rice shop.

Most of the people here like to barter, gold rings, silver rings and copper rings. Most fishermen own copper rings. Only a few silver rings are in circulation, and gold rings are hardly seen. They are only used among shops.

Uncle Zhou put down the dried fish and said, "Old shopkeeper, here I come!"

An old man was sitting on a deck chair, holding a cattail fan in his hand, fanning it lightly, and said with a smile, "Xiao Zhou, are you exchanging dried fish for rice?"

Uncle Zhou smiled and said, "Yes, old shopkeeper, how is business doing recently?" The two seemed to be familiar with each other.

The old man sat up, patted the cattail fan vigorously, and said: "The business is not so good recently. I have too much dried fish here. As you know, the rainy season is coming, and the dried fish can't be kept. It will be moldy if it is damp. The fleet didn't come to collect it, alas..." He sighed, and then said: "Is there anything else, dried fish can't be exchanged for too much rice."

Zhou Xin said: "I have some bright fish here, and some fire lotus seeds."

Lei Xingfeng watched coldly. He noticed the old shopkeeper's eyeballs rolling, so he knew that this guy was not telling the truth.

The old shopkeeper said: "Well, fire lotus seeds are fine, how many do you have?"

Zhou Xin said, "It's about three to five catties."

The old shopkeeper said: "How about fifty catties of rice for one catty? Recently, the price of fire lotus seeds has dropped."

Zhou Xin's face suddenly became bitter, and he hoped that the fire lotus seeds would be exchanged for a little more rice, but he didn't expect it to fall by half all at once.

Lei Xingfeng couldn't stand it anymore, he took a step forward and said, "How much is your rice per catty?"

The old shopkeeper said: "Money? Do you have money?" It's not that he despises fishermen, but that fishermen really rarely buy rice with money.
