Traveling through troubled times: Princess disguises herself as a man and becomes a soldier to earn
Chapter 30 The Deliciousness of Crayfish
next day
Jiang Li was waiting at the gate of the military camp early. When he saw the ration delivery team coming out, he jumped onto the carriage and followed them not far away, slowly moving towards the direction of Jiayuguan.
They walked for a whole day and stopped at a river before dark.
Wu Yong's gaze fell on Jiang Li and he swallowed unconsciously, with a hint of fear in his eyes. The scene of this man dragging back a series of heads last time was deeply imprinted in his mind.
It's so horrifying. They look harmless, but they are actually more ferocious than wild animals.
No one bothered her, so Jiang Li was happy and at ease. As for being stared at with strange eyes, she didn't care at all. It wouldn't hurt to get a few glances, so it wasn't a big deal.
He jumped off the carriage neatly, came to the river, looked at the lobsters crawling on the river bank, and thought of the crayfish he and his classmates used to eat before the end of the world, and he became interested.
He ran into the woods, broke off a few thin bamboos, dug up some earthworms, took a basket, and prepared to catch lobsters.
Si An came closer and stretched his head: "Xiao San, what are you going to do, fishing? This bamboo pole is too thin, it will break."
Jiang Li didn't even turn his head back. He was busy tying earthworms with thin lines and throwing them into the river. He did four or five before he was satisfied. As soon as he threw them down, he would pull them up again and catch lobsters.
He threw it into the basket skillfully and hooked his finger: "Captain Si, do you want to fish with me? When you've waited enough, I'll make something delicious and we can eat together."
"…These are reptiles, they can't be eaten. Who wants to eat insects for no reason? Xiaosan, are you starving? The food delivery team over there has ready-made food. Why bother with that?"
Si An said, sitting directly next to him.
Hearing this, Jiang Li stared at him with a gloomy look: "I know that the dry food over there is not tasty. I have the conditions now, so what's wrong with being extravagant and eating something delicious? Are you sure you don't want to fish with me? When I'm done, don't eat it."
"It's really... really delicious. I hope it won't be poisonous."
"Won't!!"
"Well, don't be angry, give me two rods and I'll fish. I'm telling you, although I'm not good at fishing, I'm very good at catching reptiles. Watch carefully."
The two of them kept throwing fish down and pulling them up. Soon, the basket was full. Si An was still a little unsatisfied: "Xiao San, we've caught three or four pounds. That should be enough to eat."
Jiang Li didn't even look at him, and said casually: "No, if you take away the head of that thing, what's left? It's not even enough for me to fill my stomach. Si An, you have a small appetite."
"No wonder you don't have the energy to fight. I saw you exhausted on the battlefield last time."
Si An's face flushed, his eyes full of shame and anger: "I didn't, don't slander me, huh, I'm just stronger, but you look down on me."
"...I'm not looking down on you. I'm just telling you the truth. You eat so little, just like a little girl."
"Haha, you have a big appetite, but it doesn't affect the fact that you are a short man, and the shortest centurion in the whole army."
"Xiao San, you are good in every way, but it's a pity that you have a big mouth."
Jiang Li: “……!!”
I always feel like I'm being implicit.
The two looked at each other, snorted, and looked away from each other.
It was getting dark. Jiang Li shook the basket and found it weighed more than ten pounds, enough for the two of them. He slurped his saliva, quickly packed up, and moved the large iron pot out from the carriage.
Heat up a pan and add oil, then put in chili peppers, ginger and garlic. When they collide with the oil, a crackling sound is made, and a spicy smell wafts out, choking you and causing you to sneeze repeatedly.
Wu Yong's face darkened. He didn't dare to get angry with him, for fear that if he angered him, he would lose his head.
He shouted, "Drive the carriage further away. It's too choking. What are they cooking over there? Why is it so torturous?"
One of them said respectfully: "My Lord, they are eating reptiles."
"What the hell? You just said what they eat. They can eat reptiles, right?"
Wu Yong changed the subject and said, "Wait, go and change some. I want to try some too."
"……Yes"
Is there something wrong with the adult's brain? That thing cannot be eaten, but he wants to try it too. If he gets poisoned, forget it. There are doctors for poisoning, as long as he doesn't die, it's okay.
Jiang Li rolled up his sleeves and kept stir-frying. As he stir-fried, the spicy and tempting aroma wafted out, stimulating people to tears and making them extremely greedy.
Si An was attracted by the smell, staring at the big iron pot, and swallowed his saliva: "Xiao San, this reptile smells really good."
"What kind of reptile is that? It sounds so ugly. People call it crayfish. How is it? Isn't it delicious? When you eat it, you will know what a delicious delicacy is."
"Yeah, as long as I can eat it, whatever you say is fine."
At this time, an officer came over, sniffed, and said politely: "Two centurions, my master asked if we could leave him a portion of this thing."
Jiang Li blinked his eyes and said, "Sure, but you have to exchange it for dry food. Go ahead, take ten, no, twenty steamed buns first. How about I give you two kilograms?"
The officer was silent.
"This……"
"Go back and tell your parents that you can change it if you want. These are not enough for the two of us. If you are late, it will be too late to regret when they are gone."
The officer nodded, turned around and left. As for why he didn't get angry, it was because he was not stupid. The dwarf was an evil spirit. He wanted to die, so he would fight him head-on.
She passed the message on, lowered her head, and did not dare to look at his face.
Wu Yong's face darkened and he gritted his teeth, "Okay, very good, go give it to him. I want to eat some crayfish. Go quickly, you are such a loser, always asking me for everything."
"...Yes, I will go right away."
After Jiang Li fried the lobster, he moved a small stool and started eating. When he saw the food delivery team bringing in dry food, he quickly served out two pounds and said something.
"Wait a minute, watch me do it, and then I'll show you how to do it. Don't eat the shells, or you'll get constipated."
Wu Yong saw someone coming back, so he stood up, took the plate, and waved his hand: "Go down."
"Sir, I need to show you how to eat this."
"Humph, what? You think I won't eat, right? Why don't you get out of here, you are meddling in other people's business."
"……Yes"
Wu Yong took great effort to get the shrimp meat into his mouth, slurping, "Oh my god, this is so delicious. That little dwarf really knows how to eat it. Hiss, it's really spicy."
The three of them finished more than ten pounds of lobsters in less than half an hour. Si An wiped his swollen mouth and said vaguely: "Xiao San, next time we have a chance, let's catch it again."
"Yes, sure. When we get back, bring some to the Major General so he can have a taste."
She knows how to please her boss and thinks about everything. If her boss knows this, she will definitely get some benefits in the future.
