Super Farmer

Chapter 177 The Mutant Turtle in the Barrel
Su Xu pulled out his foot from the mud, bent down and pulled out the half of the earthworm, and hung it on the eel hook. He planned to catch some eels on the field stalk when he passed by the field later. .

After stringing the earthworms on the hook, Su Xu carried the armored fish bucket and walked over to the well platform.

Last time, it was also a wild soft-shelled turtle that Heigou found by the fish pond. Su Xu used an old wooden barrel and put some well water in it. He planned to raise it for a while, and then made soup to make up for his father.

Su Xu was so busy during this time that he almost forgot about the turtle and didn't add it to the bucket. He wondered if the turtle died of thirst in such a hot day.

After walking over, Su Xu saw that there was still a lid made of an old cattail leaf fan in the bucket, covering it.

He picked up the broken fan and took a look into the bucket. Luckily, the turtle was not dead, and there was more water in the bucket than he poured into the bucket last time. Someone probably added water to the bucket later. water.

At that time, he was thinking about the white mist appearing in his well, and the well water might have some miraculous effect because of his rejuvenation technique, so he wanted to use the well water to raise soft-shelled turtles, which might make the soft-shelled turtle meat more delicious.

He just had a whim, and he didn't have too much hope, otherwise he wouldn't be here these days, and he forgot about the wild turtle kept in the bucket.

Now the first time he saw the turtle, it seemed that something had changed about the turtle. The color on the turtle's back became darker, with a strange luster.

Su Xu's heart moved, he fetched a bucket of water from the well, and washed all the four wild turtles he brought over today. After washing all the pond mud, the turtles in the two buckets could be clearly seen the difference.

If the soft-shelled turtle in the wooden barrel is compared to jade, then the soft-shelled turtle in the plastic bucket is simply a brick.

"Damn it! Is this turtle...mutated?"

Su Xu was taken aback, his throat was a little dry, and his heart started beating.

Without saying anything, I threw three more turtles into the barrel. They were noisy at first, but they became quiet all of a sudden. They opened their mouths one by one, and started to drink water in big gulps, unlike in the plastic barrel, they always want to eat water. Climb out.

Su Xu added well water to the barrel again, and then covered the barrel with the worn-out cattail leaf fan. He thought about digging a pond by the well for raising wild soft-shelled turtles.
After leaving the vegetable field, Su Xu set foot on the ridge of his rice field, deliberately walked around the ridge, and caught half a barrel of wild eels and a lot of loaches.

Most of the rice field eels are as thick as adults' fingers, and they should have been brought in from nearby rice fields after their rice fields were rejuvenated by the technique of rejuvenation, and they settled down on the ridges of their rice fields.

"It is estimated that in the next few days, the family will inevitably eat loach and eel."

Su Xu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. In order to prevent the abnormality of his rice fields from being discovered, he added another job of catching eels and loaches every now and then.

After thinking about it, he didn't need to do it himself, and told his uncle later that when he came to his vegetable field to pick vegetables, or raised fish in net cages in the river, he could catch the eels and loaches in his rice fields by the way. Xu Mei will be happy to sell it.

Suddenly, Su Xu thought of the paddy fields submerged by the mudslide, and couldn't help showing a little expectation: "I don't know what will grow?"

The mudslides that rushed into the snake cave carried so many medicinal materials from the deep mountains. It is not likely that the mudslides that rushed into my rice fields would not carry the medicinal materials from the deep mountains.

Even if the mud and sand deposited in the rice fields have not been cleaned up...it cannot be cleaned up!
Su Xu's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly called his father, and when he got through, he said, "Dad, don't plow the fields under the mountain ridge."

Su Dashan asked: "Why?"

Su Xu made a guess in his heart, and said: "Our rice field, like the vegetable field, has been sprayed with medicine by me. If there are medicinal materials washed out from the deep mountains in the deposited mud and sand, maybe there will be some medicinal materials washed out from the deep mountains. To be able to take root and grow again, I have to clean it up first, and then turn it over."

Upon hearing this, Su Dashan immediately said: "Then why do you bring in farming? Isn't it faster to get money from planting medicine?"

Su Xu wanted to say: "Planting medicine is too eye-catching, I don't want to plant medicine!"

However, Su Dashan was so arbitrary that he didn't give him a chance to express his opinions. He said flatly: "Those rice fields will become medicine fields in the future. That's it. I'll go and have a look later."

Su Xu hurriedly said: "Don't... let them grow freely. Dad, don't dig around randomly, and be careful to damage the good medicine."

"Dad is a herb picker, don't you look down on your dad too much?" Su Dashan was still a little unhappy.

Well, Su Xu can't say anything more.

Forget it, as Dad said, he is a herb collector. A few years ago, the town issued certificates for hunters and herb collectors in various villages. He also received the certificate and was still on the phone to keep up with the university. He yelled.

Su Xu no longer struggled with this matter, and went to Erniu's house with a plastic bucket, and smelled the spicy smell wafting from the kitchen, couldn't help but sniffed, and said loudly, "Auntie, this is frying meat." ?”

Er Niu's mother smiled in the kitchen: "Your nose is quite good. Auntie is frying chicken with peppers. This is Auntie's specialty dish, and it's not worse than your mother's."

"Auntie's craftsmanship, my mother also agrees!"

Su Xu praised Er Niu Mama, went into the kitchen to get a knife, found a wooden board with nails, cleaned up the soft-shelled turtles, eels and loaches, and cleaned them with well water.

When Er Niu Ma brought the fried dishes to the big round table in the main room, she looked this way, not surprised: "Hey, you still got so many eels and loaches, and such a big turtle? "

"Yeah, there are a lot of guests, and there are not many dishes to serve, and it will embarrass our Yanshan Village!"

Su Xu said with a smile, went into the kitchen, quickly cut the eel into sections, chopped the soft-shelled turtle into pieces, stir-fried one with green peppers, and braised the other in soy sauce.The remaining loach was made into dried loach.

When Su Yikun led the guests over, they all started to salivate when they smelled the fragrance wafting from the small courtyard.

"This dish is too delicious, sister-in-law's craftsmanship is really good!" Village Chief Ma couldn't help but praise.

After serving the table, Team Leader Yang tasted the eel slices with green peppers, and said: "This eel slices tastes so delicious, even better than those fried in restaurants in the county. Tsk, I have never eaten such delicious ones." Eel slices."

"That's not true! Our Yanshan Village has beautiful mountains and clear waters. The ones that grow in the ground and swim in the water are more delicious than those outside."

Su Xu smiled complacently, and said again: "That is to say, the location is a bit remote, and the transportation is inconvenient. If you have good things, you can't sell them at a high price. If the county can build a road for our village, our village will definitely get rid of poverty and become rich. "

Team Leader Yang laughed and said, "Don't tell me about the road repairs. The area affected by the disaster in the county is too large this time, and the relief funds allocated are not enough. If you want to build roads, you still have to work hard on your own."
