Monster Hunter:Hunter's Notes

Chapter 276 The Water Ghost in Mojia Village

I have to say that Ancier's aesthetics is correct, and the appearance of the Emerald Water Dragon suit is really hard to describe.

However, this weird feeling is mainly concentrated on the special structure, full-coverage waterproof helmet.

After taking off the ghost-like helmet, the fully fitted Emerald Water Dragon suit is not only no longer intimidating, but also gives people a particularly agile feeling, which is very suitable for underwater operations.

No wonder that guy Aziz insists on making this set of equipment.

But if you wear a helmet, well, whether you are walking in the wilderness or swimming in the sea, it is really difficult not to be mistaken for some kind of water monkey at first glance.

"Did your kid come back from swimming?" the village chief couldn't help but ask.

Gordon and the others were also a little confused about this issue.

"No, I took a boat with the wind, and they passed by not too far from the village. I didn't even need them to come over, and they just swam for a while."

"How far did you swim?" Gordon couldn't help but ask.

"Is it almost twenty kilometers?"

".You rock."

"You two, I will prepare the documents for the crusade mission before tomorrow morning. Let's recharge our batteries tonight."

The old village chief nodded to Gordon Hayata, then turned to look at Aziz, "Gordon and the others are going to hunt for the skin of the ancient shark, and you just happened to be back. If you have free time, go with them."

Remember to tell them all the precautions and it is best to take them to practice. These foreign children probably have little exposure to water fighting and may not be used to it."

"The skin of the ancient shark? I understand! Gordon Pork Chops can stay at my house tonight, as this lady said"

Hayata smiled and said: "My name is Hayata, and Aisha invited me to stay at her house. This is more convenient."

"Little Aisha is back too?" Aziz was a little surprised.

"Yeah." Gordon nodded, "She is studying abroad in Lockark. She came back to visit relatives in the past few days and came with us. She just arrived."

"That's it. By the way, An Xil and Feng Ying didn't come over? Are they okay?"

"They are fine. They just went to the Western Continent for business and it will take a few months for them to come back." Gordon explained briefly.

"So that's it, huh?"

Az suddenly stopped and looked towards the distance, where Aisha was drying fish and chatting with a chubby old lady.

"Little Ai Xia has grown so big? She is completely unrecognizable!"

"You must have been away from home for a few years. After all, you are growing the fastest at your age."

Gordon had a similar feeling. In his impression, Hayata was still a little girl, but after two or three years, she suddenly grew up.

"Well, let's scare her. The way little Ai Xia is scared is the most interesting!"

Aziz smirked and handed his spear and luggage to Gordon for temporary safekeeping. He put on his helmet, returned to his previous water ghost-like appearance, and tiptoed towards Aisha from behind.

Aziz, who had unloaded his weapons and luggage, looked even weirder. His strange appearance of half-walking and half-crawling on the ground was even more frightening to look at.

This guy was moving very fast. Hayata was still hesitating whether to shout to alert Aisha, but he was already approaching behind Aisha.

Aziz did not choose the low-level scare method of suddenly jumping out and screaming, but quietly stretched out his claws and pinched Ai Xia's lower back.

The itchy spot was suddenly attacked. Ai Xia jumped in panic and turned around to look. Then she saw a strange guy with emerald green scales all over his body.

"babble--!!!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Time seems to go back ten years ago.

The boy from the fishing village carrying octopus and sea cucumber scared the little girl with pigtails so much that she screamed. The village aunt who was attracted by the cries yelled and cursed and chased her around with a broom.

But now that the boy has grown up, there are more people chasing him, and the aunt has turned into a group of brothers and uncles holding harpoons.

Gordon and the others hurried over to explain the situation, so that Aziz, who had gone too far in his prank, would be stabbed to death as a water monster.

Taking off his helmet, Aziz smiled dryly.

"What, it turns out to be Aziz!"

"When did you come back? This equipment is too disgusting!"

"What? Little Ai Xia is crying?!"

So in the end, Aziz couldn't escape and got a beating.

At night.

Gordon and his entourage, Aisha, and Aziz, who had a bruised nose and eyes and had changed into fishermen's uniform, sat around the bonfire at Aziz's house.

The houses in the fishing village are relatively simple. There is no distinction between inner and outer rooms in a small room. In the center of the house, there is a one-meter-square sandy area without a floor, where a bonfire is piled and a large pot is hung to serve as the stove.

In the big pot, a large amount of seafood that Gordon had never seen before was boiled, including fish, crabs, shrimps, shellfish, squid, everything.

It may seem like a random stew, but it's actually very particular.

According to Aziz, fish won’t taste good if it’s not stewed thoroughly, and squid, shrimps, and clams won’t taste good if they’re overcooked. There are strict arrangements for when to put what and how long to cook it.

"At the end, just add a little sea salt, and it will be the most delicious! I'm going to miss the mixed seafood in Mojia Village!"

"Meow meow meow meow!" Pork Chop and Pandan were particularly looking forward to it.

The door of Aziz's house was pushed open, and a chubby aunt came in carrying a large pot of steamed alocasia.

After putting it down, he smiled at Ai Xia and Gordon and said, "You all need to eat more. If it's not enough, tell Auntie, and Auntie will steam two more pots."

After saying that, she glared at Aziz fiercely, then turned and left.

This is Aziz's mother. The couple live in the hut next door. Aisha was frightened by Aziz's prank when she was helping her dry fish, and she was also the one who beat Aziz the hardest.

Aziz took out a few alocasia, cut them into pieces with a knife, threw them into the pot and cooked them together with the seafood, and then served a large bowl for everyone.

"Eat it, eat it. If the shrimp and crab feel too bland, you can dip it in the fish juice!"

The four people and two cats ate hard for a while, and then slowly restarted the conversation.

"Brother Aziz, what happened next?" Ai Xia sipped the seafood soup and was in a good mood.

She loved to listen to all kinds of adventure stories, and Aziz recounted all his experiences after leaving Mojia Village. Only then did he finally comfort her.

Aziz filled another bowl for himself, poured some fish juice into the bowl, and continued: "Well, after hunting the Emerald Water Dragon, we parted ways with Gordon and the others in the East Trad Wetland.

Well, I originally wanted to go to Sinard Village to experience the scenery of the plateau and see if there are any special fish in the high-altitude waters, but unfortunately I couldn't find the way up there."

"Sinard Village is on a high peak deep in the mountains. It's difficult to get there on foot. There was a mission there before, so a few friends and I took an airship up there." Gordon said vaguely.

He was too lazy to peel off the crab claws, so he threw one of the claws into his mouth and bit it loudly.

"What? Are there any rare fish there?"

"No meow."

Pig Chop pulled his face out of the rice bowl, "Don't talk about fish, you can't even see meows in the water on Sky Mountain. If you like bugs, there are super big bugs."

"Oh, I won't go there then." Aziz instantly lost all interest in Sky Mountain and Sinard Village.

"What happened next? What happened next?" Ai Xia continued to ask.

"Later, I bypassed the sea of ​​trees, walked northeast, and arrived at the Snowy Mountains of Frasia. I heard that there were rare ancient fish deep in the glacial lake under the snowy mountains, but the water was too cold and I couldn't get down.

Well, let’s go to Bokai Village first and ask the craftsmen there to make the Emerald Water Dragon Armor. The insulation effect of this set of equipment is really first-rate.”

"Grandma, the village chief of Bokai Village, are you feeling well?" Hayata put down the bowl and asked softly.
