Golden Fishing Village

Chapter 1273 1280. Zoumayu Island (15)

The younger generation's knowledge of sweet potato burning probably comes from the TV series "Bright Sword", in which Chief Li has three major hobbies: scolding mothers, burning sweet potatoes and beating elites. For him, the greatest joy in life is drinking sweet potatoes, burning scolding mothers and beating Japanese soldiers. Elite troops.

In the TV series, sweet potato roasting is a good thing. Only those who have made meritorious deeds have the opportunity to take a few sips. After drinking it, their faces are full of ecstasy.

At one point, Ao Muyang speculated that the crew used Fei Zhai Happy Water during the filming of the TV series. If it was really sweet potato burning, then the actor could show such a happy expression after drinking it, which is really a great acting skill.

As the saying goes, melon wine is bitter, corn wine is sweet, and sorghum wine is fragrant. Sweet potato roasting is generally a wine made from dry sweet potatoes. Although the sweet potatoes themselves are sweet, the taste is no longer the same after brewing. No matter how it is processed, the wine will always have a bitter taste.

The reason why sweet potato wine was popular in mountain villages in the past is because sweet potatoes have a high yield, and no one is willing to use corn and sorghum to make wine. They are all grains used to fill their stomachs.

Ao Muyang took a sip and wanted to put down the cup. Old man Ao Zhibing was amused by his appearance and laughed: "Don't waste it, don't waste it. This wine doesn't taste good, but it is pure grain wine after all. It's freezing on the island. It’s very humid. As an old man, I’ve been here for two years and my joints are fine. It’s all thanks to this wine.”

Heilong took it and took a sip, nodded thoughtfully, and gave the old man a thumbs up.

Zhong Cang said: "Uncle Bing, I think our body bones can withstand the sea wind and moisture because we ate eels. The eels raised by the boss are really strong."

Hearing what he said, Wang Xia's face turned red.

Ao Muyang pushed the wine glass to Heilong and said, "Come on, Brother Long, if you like it, I'll drink it for you. I won't do it. I'd rather drink a bowl of hot tea."

Ao Zhibing shook his head regretfully and said: "It's a pity not to drink it. There are not many people in the village who can make such authentic sweet potato roast. This is the wine that we fishermen should drink."

As he said before, Ao Muyang's parents used this wine when they got married. Thirty years ago, sweet potatoes were used to cook weddings and weddings in the village.

Without him, there is little land in the fishing village. Although it is fertile, people are reluctant to plant rice and wheat, and they all plant sweet potatoes and corn. Therefore, the most wine produced is sweet potato wine.

Ao Zhibing took another sip, then sighed with a look of aftertaste.

Ao Muyang picked up the cup and looked at it, then drank it with the determination to follow Chief Li's charge. The wine was really strong, it was spicy from the mouth to the stomach. He estimated that if he peed by himself, he might be able to urinate. Come.

The hot pot is boiling, and the snow-white fish meat is poured into it and it starts rolling immediately.

The meat of barracuda is tender and easy to cook, but the meat of wild fish may contain coral toxins, so it needs to be heated more to allow the high temperature to destroy the toxicity.

Heilong didn't care. He put it into the bowl with his chopsticks and ate it quickly.

Ao Muyang was quite surprised: "If you don't have a tongue, you won't delay eating."

Black Dragon chuckled and opened his mouth to indicate to him: I still have some tongue.

Ao Zhibing picked up two chopsticks and said: "This wild sea wolf meat is still delicious, but it is not as good as snake meat. I was young at that time, and my boss, your grandpa was still there at that time. Let's go to sea together, hehe , once I caught several sea snakes, stewed them in a pot, and cooked them with sweet potatoes. I can still think of the smell when I dream. "

Zhong Cang said: "Isn't there a sea snake in our fishing ground? It's so big. I encountered it when I was diving last time. It swam out of the coral reef and scared me."

Wang Xia, who had been concentrating on preparing the dishes, turned back and said: "That snake cannot be eaten. Even though it is a snake, it is quite sensible. Every time I feed it fish and meat, it knows to nod and thank me."

Ao Zhibing said: "That must not be eaten. It is the pet of the dragon head in the water."

After eating a piece of hot fish, Ao Muyang laughed and said: "Grandpa Bing, you are really wrong. It is the heart of the head of state. If the head of state didn't like to play with it in the past, I would have soaked it in wine."

"Why don't you catch it and eat it now?" Ao Zhibing asked expectantly.

Ao Muyang was about to drink the fish soup, but his hands trembled and he almost spilled the soup: "No, that snake is your assistant now. If someone comes to steal the fish, you just catch the snake and throw it on their boat."

The King of Sea Snakes has been raised by Fu Guozheng since he was an egg. He has been raised in a cage since he was a child. He is very big, but is actually timid. It is best used to scare people, because it is not aggressive, and most sea snakes are not aggressive.

A pot of fish soup used fish heads and fish bones. The stewed soup was thick and white. Ao Muyang poured some roasted sweet potatoes into the soup bowl. It tasted delicious and spicy, which was a perfect match.

Five people ate a fish. This fish weighed more than ten kilograms. The fish was tender and delicious, and the soup was so fragrant that the eaters couldn't stop using their chopsticks.

Brick Island is actually quite large, like half of Longtou Village. There is nothing to do on the island other than going to the sea to look for barracudas, so Ao Muyang wanders around.

Speaking of which, he has been contracting Brick Island for many days, but he has not visited it all over.

Spring has also arrived on the island. Although it is a stone island, there are many flowers and plants on the island, and there are also some trees.

Ao Muyang walked around the island, surrounded by barnacles. Some seagulls used Brick Island as a place to stay. The south of the island is the territory of humans, and the north is the territory of seagulls.

In many literatures and movies, seagulls are portrayed as brave and resolute seabirds. In fact, they have bad personalities. When Lao Ao arrived at the north of the island, a seagull came up to peck at him.

Several seagulls circled over his head, like a small bomber, and bird droppings fell from time to time, blowing Lao Ao up and making him jump around.

Suddenly, a shadow appeared in the sky, and the seagulls scattered.

Ao Muyang looked up and saw the queen spread her wings majestically flying at low altitude, and the sea breeze blew her iron-gray feathers, which were very powerful.

Seeing the queen suddenly here, Ao Muyang was surprised and waved.

He didn't think of raising the queen as a pet. The queen was different from the generals. It was an endangered species and should survive and reproduce in the wild.

Presumably, the queen came to Brick Island following the yacht. Usually, she didn't show up, but stayed in the sky to protect him silently.

Thinking of this, Ao Muyang was somewhat moved.

Seeing him wave, the queen immediately flew down and landed on his shoulder as usual.

The claws of the Steller's sea eagle were rough and powerful. It was like an iron claw on his shoulder, and he grimaced in pain.

The seagulls were frightened and flew around, crying as they flew. Some birds on the reef were scared and ran away after hearing the shrill cries. It turned out that this was a seagull nest.

Some seagulls flew north after being frightened. The north of the island is high, and there are some cliffs standing up, which are very steep. Zhong Cang, Ao Zhibing and others have never been there.

Just as the seagulls were about to fly over, a group of black birds flew out from the cliffs and mixed with the seagulls.
