Chapter 79: Eating Crabs 2

Chapter 79 Eating Crabs 2

"You'll know in a minute." Li Dahua blinked his eyes mysteriously.

Li Dahua bent over, pounding soil and moving stones.

"found it."

This was the edge of the field, between the uneven stones. She moved the stones away and then took out something from the soil.

Li Dahua took it out in surprise, "Daughter, look, this is a treasure from the soil."

"baby?!"

Sheng Lingzhi took a closer look and frowned. "Is this a spider in the soil?"

Sheng Lingzhi said this because she had seen a spider spinning a web on straw.

"You kid, you really don't know this thing." Li Dahua said as she walked from the field.

As she lifted up, there were pits in the earth, accompanied by the sound of wet soil being pulled up.

When she reached the shore, she handed the things to Sheng Lingzhi.

"Aunt..."

Sheng Lingzhi raised his hand to pick it up, but at this moment, Li Dahua took his hand back with a swish.

"You kid really don't know this little thing?"

Sheng Lingzhi showed confusion, and Li Dahua suddenly laughed.

"This is a little crab. It likes to hide in the cracks of rocks. There is some iron in the fields here. I have been here before, so I know it is there on the ridge of the field, so I specially brought it to you.

Come and find it.”

"Crab?!"

Sheng Lingzhi smiled.

"Auntie, I've seen crabs before, but crabs don't look like this."

"Why doesn't it look like this? This one is small, and it hasn't grown up yet. When it grows up, it becomes a big crab. This one is small, so it looks a little like a spider, but it is not a spider.

, it just looks like it at first glance, if you don’t believe me, take a closer look, ha, it’s really not the case.”

Li Dahua held it up to Sheng Lingzhi, "You can only open it but don't touch it. Oh, have you seen the pliers on this thing? This thing will hurt your hands."

"Yes." Sheng Lingzhi nodded, looking straight at the little crab in front of him.

A little crab that just emerged from the mud. It has mud on its body and looks like a spider.

"Auntie, I still think it's a spider."

Li Dahua had no choice but to squat down, put the crab into a small puddle, turned it over, and washed it casually: "Wait a moment, I'll wash it."

After cleaning, Li Dahua showed Sheng Lingzhi again.

"Auntie." Sheng Lingzhi looked at the crabs in front of her that looked different from those she had seen before. She couldn't help but exclaimed, "When I ate them before, they didn't look like this."

"Ah? What does that look like?"

"It looks a bit like white rice, no, more like white tofu. The meat is delicious, silky, tender, and very white and crystal clear. There are also yellow ones that look like egg yolks and taste delicious."

"Daughter, is what you are eating big crabs, or has someone else prepared them?"

"I'll handle it myself, so..."

Sheng Lingzhi patted her head speechlessly, "So, Aniang, this is what a crab looks like?"

"Yes." Li Dahua said excitedly: "But you must not have eaten the little crabs. They are all edible."

That night, Sheng Lingzhi tasted another specialty of her hometown——

Fried baby crabs.

The food is crispy and crispy.

The food at home was delicious, and suddenly a neighbor called out: "Something serious has happened to the Sheng family, let's gather at the entrance of the village."

When we arrived at the entrance of the village, the crowd was completely dark.

"Everyone..."

The mature and steady village chief was excited, and his two trembling hands trembled: "Zhujia Village, something big has happened."

Looking at the situation, everyone knows what it is.

The Sheng family arrived late, and they had already finished talking about the future.

Shangshengshan saw that everyone was sitting in their seats. They all looked downcast and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Something big happened." When the village chief opened his mouth, his voice was hoarse. The villagers next to him also had red eyes, full of discomfort.

"Yeah." Sheng Lingzhi looked at him with heavy eyes and nodded heavily. "What's the matter?" she asked.

"Yes... there are a lot of bugs in the rice fields. There are bugs everywhere, very scary bugs." The village chief burst into tears as soon as he spoke, "Those bugs ate the rice, and when it was about to ripen, the rice was all dead."

"insect?"

Knowing that everyone was worried, Sheng Lingzhi still felt his sweat as it was getting late and said, "Let's go take a look."

Bugs, aren't they little crabs?

"good."

The village chief choked with sobs and nodded. No matter adults or children, they were holding back tears and lowering their heads. The heavy atmosphere made everyone unable to breathe.

It was quiet all the way until everyone came to the rice field. The village chief asked someone to bring a hoe over and pointed at the hole above, "Girl Ganoderma lucidum, you can read and write. See if there is any way to kill these bugs in the book."

"Huh?"

The hoe dug a small hole, but there was nothing inside. The man holding the hoe was stunned.

Seeing him like that, Mrs. Li grabbed the hoe and said, "I told you to farm the land well and see, what else can you do besides digging out bird's nests in your dreams every day?"

"Everyone, don't be stunned. Grab your torch and search carefully. If there is a small hole, shout out and we will dig it out for the Ganoderma lucid girl to see. Maybe there is some insecticide." The village chief said.

"Find quickly."

"Everyone, please pay attention to your feet, especially the dry rice stalks. Be sure to look at them. These may be eaten by insects."

"right."

It was getting late, the moon in the sky was smiling slightly, and the road could no longer be seen clearly on the ground.

Sheng Lingzhi said: "Everyone, look for it carefully."

"There's a hole here."

"Dig quickly."

"Why not?"

After several digs without success, Sheng Lingzhi asked the village chief, "Grandpa, village chief, what does this insect look like?"

"I remember that its body was orange-red, somewhat curved, and it had three pairs of long beards on its mouth, like a hunchbacked old man," the village chief said.

"Village Chief, we found one."

Li Dahua was as excited as a three-year-old child. Before Sheng Lingzhi walked over, the others started talking about the bug.

"Look, the insect has very slender whiskers, its small eyes are wide open, and its two large pincers are raised very high, one section at a time."

Li Dahua poked it with a hoe and said, "As soon as I touch it, it raises its pincers and looks like it wants to eat people."

Sheng Lingzhi walked over and looked at the insect and couldn't help but smile. "Actually, I think it looks a bit cute, like a little warrior."

"Cute?" What is the girl thinking? How cute is this?

Everyone was surprised: "Its head is very big, taking up half of its body. There are two big tentacles on the top of its head, sliding on the water. I'm afraid it's extremely cute. How can it be cute?"

"The body is like a cone, the head is somewhat like a triangle, and the eyes seem to have two layers, swinging from side to side. Could it be a cannibal?" I don't know who asked the question, and people were suddenly panicked.

Li Dahua, who had just taken the hoe, backed away in panic and killed the insect with the hoe.

Also turned up the white belly.

Li Dahua was frightened, and pulled Sheng Lingzhi back again and again, pointing out: "Look, it has many legs, each one looks like a spider, and it has three tails. It looks terrible."

"horrible?"
