After entering the bird tribe, I want to farm

Baiwu has few friends, and basically doesn't get close to the tribe when he has nothing to do.Ever since he mentioned to his father, brother and Nan Yao that he could disclose the news of their land reclamation, he never cared about this matter again.

All his mind is on the newly cultivated paddy fields.

When the paddy fields are reclaimed, he also plans to build a ditch and simply build a water conservancy system. It will be much more convenient to fetch water for irrigation.

There are so many things to do to open up wasteland, and time is faster than the river at the foot of the mountain.

This morning, before breakfast, Bai Wu took a hoe and went down to the river to repair paddy fields by himself.

The river mud is relatively soft and relatively easy to dig. Bai Wu planned to open up more fields while it was still early, and go back to have breakfast after the sun rose.

He dug and found a big hole hidden in the soil, a very big hole.

There are more creatures hidden in the soil than he imagined. During the period of land reclamation, they have often dug up animals in various holes.

Some animals can be taken home and cleaned up, and they can also be used as a dish.

Bai Wu took a look and found that half of the entrance of the cave was buried in the water, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

Generally speaking, if the entrance of the cave is buried in water, it means that most of the creatures hidden in the cave are aquatic creatures, at least not snakes.

Bai Wu is not afraid of anything, but snakes, as long as it is not a snake, his confidence in the bottom of his heart is enough.

He dug along the lines of the hole. Unexpectedly, the hole got bigger and bigger. When he reached the top, a hole the size of a millstone appeared.

In the middle of this hole lies a large crab.

When Bai Wu saw it for the first time, he thought he was delusional, so he rubbed his eyes in surprise.

When he saw it for a second time, he was sure that he was right.

The crab was bigger than his head, and it was lying there quietly, motionless.

Bai Wu thought it was a dead crab at first, so he poked the crab carefully with a hoe, and when he poked it, he found some bubbles spit out from the crab's mouth.

The crab is not dead.

It is hibernating!

He actually dug out a big hibernating crab!

Bai Wu stared at the crab dumbfounded. The pair of curled up big pincers were almost bigger than his hand, and it looked particularly plump.

What kind of food delivery spirit is this?

Chinese New Year is coming soon, could it be that God specially sent him a crab as an extra meal?

Bai Wu has been fishing in this river for more than half a year, first using fish cages and then fishing nets. He has caught all kinds of fish and shrimps, but he has never seen any crabs.

He also thought that the river was too deep and the flow of water was too high for crabs to survive in such a place.

Unexpectedly, it was simply that he was not skilled enough, and he had been neighbors with the crabs for so long, but he didn't find any trace of them.

Bai Wu looked at the crab.

The crab was motionless.

He stretched out his hands cautiously, pinched the crab's back, stuffed it into the back basket he brought before it was fully awake, and nervously closed the lid of the back basket.

Such a big crab, if it is pinched, its fingers may be pinched off.

If there is one crab here, then there may be a second one.

Bai Wu couldn't care less about cultivating paddy fields, and immediately carried the basket on his back and started patrolling along the river.

He walked along the river for a long distance, and found another hole that looked familiar.

Gathering his spirits, he immediately dug up with a metal pick.

He dug quickly with the hoe, and after digging a long ditch, he also dug this big hole, and there was also a crab sleeping peacefully in the hole.

Bai Wu was once raw and secondly cooked, without saying a word, he pinched the crab's back and threw it into the back basket.

This crab was much bigger than the hairy crab he bought with a huge sum of money in his previous life, and it looked much stronger.

He was afraid that the crabs in the basket would fight after waking up, so he specially picked up some withered grass from the side, rolled them into balls, and threw them into the back basket to separate the two crabs.

After handling the crabs, he stood up to look at the pile of mud he had dug out.

According to the experience of dredging mud and making pottery last year, this pile of mud can fill at least two back baskets.

Bai Wu filled the mud back into the big hole he had dug.

He continued along the river to find a third hole.

After walking a few hundred meters, he quickly found his target.

It's just that this time I was not lucky, and the hole I found was empty. I don't know whether the crabs inside died because they went out to look for food, or this was originally an abandoned crab hole.

Then came the fourth hole.

The fourth hole was also a huge hole. Bai Wu swung his hoe and dug for a long time, but before he dug to the end, his brother came to find it first.

Kishi saw him digging mud from afar, and as soon as he landed and changed back into a human form, he couldn't wait to ask: "What are you doing here? I waited for you to go back to eat, and I didn't see you for a long time."

"Brother, come and see the good things I found this morning."

"What a good thing?" Kishi walked over suspiciously, lifted the lid of the back basket and looked, and was shocked, "How can there be such a big crab, and its shell is so hard!"

"Huh?" Bai Wu's eyes were full of question marks, "Shell?"

"You don't know, this kind of thing looks big and tastes good, but the meat is very little, and the shell is very hard to bite. If there is enough food, everyone will not eat it."

Bai Wu looked at his brother, and then at the crabs in the basket, "How did everyone eat this kind of crabs before?"

"Just bake it and eat it directly, how else can I eat it?"

Bai Wu took a deep breath, reached out to cover her cheeks, "Where's the shell? Grit it with your teeth?"

"Those who can bite bite it with their teeth, and those who can't bite smash it with stones, but the meat inside is not too much, and it only takes a few bites after knocking for half a day. No one wants to eat it. Do you like this?"

"Like it."

"Then you should have said it earlier, this summer and autumn, we found crab nests several times, because it was too troublesome to eat, and everyone didn't even bother to catch them."

Bai Wu didn't expect to miss such a good thing, and immediately felt his heart twitching, "Is the crab you found bigger than the crab in the basket?"

"That's not true." Kishi made a judgment, "The big one is a circle smaller than this crab, and the small one is only as big as a fist."

"Then I feel better."

Bai Wu swung the hoe while talking.

He dug for a while before he dug the hole to the bottom and harvested the hibernating crabs nestled in the hole.

He has now found a total of three crabs.

Each of these crabs is bigger than the other. The largest one is estimated to be more than two catties, and the small one should be about one catty.

Enough for them to eat.

Bai Wu packed up the basket, "Let's go, let's go back to have breakfast first."

"Yafu has already stewed the meat, and there is a little bit of chewing fruit pulp in it, just waiting for you."

"Then let's steam the crab as an extra meal."

Crabs don't need to be reared and spit out mud, they can be caught and eaten now.

As soon as Bai Wu got home, she impatiently moved out of the wooden basin, poured out the grass and crabs in the basket, simply twisted the grass into strands, tied up the crabs that were still in hibernation, and then dared to take the grass and carefully inspect them. Scrub the shells of the crabs.

The shells of these crabs are very hard, the ends of the crab legs are very sharp, and there are countless hard bumps on the body, so be very careful when washing the white wormwood.

Kishi wanted to help, but he refused.

I don't know if there are any germs and parasites on these crabs. It will be troublesome if you accidentally cut your hands.

Bai Wu ordered his brother, "Brother, help me wash out that stone pot, I want to use the stone pot to steam crabs."

"Why don't you use the pottery pot? The pottery pot has been cleaned."

"The pottery pot is too small for steaming." Bai Wutou didn't lift it up, "First wash the stone pot, then wash some green onions and ginger out."

Such a big crab has to be steamed with ginger and scallions to remove the fishy smell.

Chuan came over and asked with a smile, "Then what are you and I doing with your father?"

"Yafu, you also help wash the ginger and cut the onions. Father, please see when the priest will come down, and ask him to come down and eat crabs with us."

Bai Wu directed his family around, his voice flying like a whistle.

Kishi and the others didn't take the crab seriously at first, but seeing him so happy, they also looked forward to it.

The stone pot was washed quickly.

Bai Wu placed the special shelf for making tofu in the stone pot, then put the cleaned crab belly up, put ginger and spring onion on the top and bottom, and steamed on high heat.

It's winter now, and he doesn't know if there are any crab roe in these crabs. To be on the safe side, the belly should face up, so that after the crab is steamed, the crab roe will not flow out.

There is no soy sauce and vinegar at home, so Baiwu specially fried miso with onion, ginger and garlic, and sour jam, which barely served as soy sauce and crab vinegar.

While he was busy, Nan Yao came down, approached the kitchen, and saw the big crab in the stone pot at a glance.

Bai Wu asked him for credit through the dense water vapor, "How is it? Even if this crab is steamed, it won't smell fishy."

Nan Yao's eyes fell on his face, "You like to eat white mussels, I should have remembered that you also eat crabs."

Bai Wu was startled, then smiled again, "It's okay, next year we will make up twice as much."

This time the crabs are bigger and the steaming time is longer.

The white wu sauce was ready, and the crabs in the stone pot gradually turned orange red, exuding the unique aroma of crabs.

Bai Wu took a deep breath, "You can eat it."

Chuan Dao: "The other dishes are warming in the bread kiln, you go and serve them, and I will serve the crabs."

Mo Dao: "I'll come."

The freshly steamed crabs were very hot, and Mo's big hands were like copper-skinned iron bones, and he picked up the three crabs with ease.

Bai Wu went back to the room and took out his own knife, "Come on! Let's eat."

As Bai Wu said, he brought out the largest crab, raised the knife in his hand, and chopped off the crab's eight legs and two pincers with a few bangs.

He has good skills, and he didn't hurt the table at all when chopping.

Kishi's eyes lit up, "Should we only eat the legs, not the body?"

"Of course not, eat the body first and then the legs." Bai Wu put down the knife, pinched the back cover of the crab with his hands, trying to break it apart with all his strength.

Looking at him from the side, Nan Yao's face was a little red, and he reached out to take the crab in his hand, "Give it to me."

Nanyao's slender fingers pinched the crab's shell, and it seemed that with a slight break, the entire crab's back shell was broken off.

Bai Wu didn't bother to praise him, and hurriedly looked up.

This crab has hibernated for so long, and there is still half of the attractive orange-red crab roe left, and the snow-white crab meat is still quite plump.

"Okay! I'll do it!" Bai Wu hurriedly took the crab from Nanyao, removed the internal organs of the gills, and then used a spoon to dig out the crab roe and crab meat, "Yafu, Dad, bring the bowl, we will share a share .”

Chuan said: "Give it to the priest first."

"Don't push it, it's all there, hurry up, it won't taste so good when it's cold."

Bai Wu made five servings of crab roe and crab meat, each with a small portion in their bowls.

He picked up the crab roe and crab meat himself, and tasted it first.

Crab roe and crab meat melted in his mouth, and the sweet taste captured his heart. The crab meat was still a little chewy!

Simply perfect.

This crab is not inferior to winter at all!

After Bai Wu finished eating with a few chopsticks, she scooped up the next crab with sparkling eyes.

Next to him, Nan Yao broke open the shells of the two crabs and assisted him in further processing.

After Bai Wu simply removed all the inedible parts, he handed the crab to Chuan.

Chuan then divided the crab meat and crab roe into each person's bowl.

Soon, everyone got a bowl full of crab meat and crab roe.

After tasting Bai Wu a few times, I feel a bit tired of eating crab roe for nothing.

He took a chopstick of crab meat and crab roe, and lightly dipped it in the dipping sauce.

The crab meat and crab roe without any dipping sauce is very fresh and sweet, sweet and springy, while the crab meat and crab roe dipped in dipping sauce has a rich taste, the whole is softer and not greasy at all.

Bai Wu ate a whole bowl of crab meat and crab roe, and was satisfied, so she freed her hands to teach her family to slowly poke the meat out of the crab legs.

The crab leg meat is dipped in the dipping sauce, and the taste is also unique.

After Bai Wu finished eating, he still couldn't get enough of it. "This crab is really delicious. I don't know if we can dig it up again later. If we can dig it up again, we can roast garlic crabs at night."

Kishi responded positively, "I think it can! I know that there is a place where there are a lot of crabs."
