Chapter 48 - Grilled Fish

Didn't they say that there were many wild fruits in the ancient times? After searching for a long time, he didn't see anything. Mo Xiao Yan didn't dare to go deeper into the mountains since he didn't know what kind of ferocious beasts were inside.

He searched around the foot of the mountain but didn't find anything. Instead, he found a pepper tree. Since he didn't bring any baskets or baskets with him today, there was no place to place them.

There was no point in wandering around in the mountains, he might as well go to the river.

The ancient water was very clear, and there was no pollution. One could clearly see the fish swimming in the water.

Seeing the fishes, Mo Xiao Yan suddenly wanted to eat them, but he didn't seem to have any confidence in catching them.

"Xiao Yan, why are you here?" An unfamiliar male voice sounded.

Mo Xiao Yan seemed to be a little unfamiliar with this voice. When he turned around, he saw a youth of around sixteen to seventeen years old standing there.

The long elephant was more ordinary but not bad, it was stronger and sturdy, not like the kind that Chen Zi Mo would think of.

It seemed like they knew him and could call his name. He probably belonged to this village, but he didn't have much of an impression of him yet.

"I was bored at home, so I came out for a walk." Mo Xiao Yan said with a smile.

Since he didn't know the other party's name, he could only give up on addressing him. He had to pretend to know him first and find out when he could think of it.

"Do you eat fish? I'll go catch some fish. " The youth asked.

"Mm. Then I'll be troubling you." Mo Xiao Yan obviously wouldn't refuse when he heard that there was food for fish.

"Xiao Yan, what's wrong with you today? In the past, whenever you saw me, you would always call me Big Brother Jiang Wen." Jiang Wen was a little curious.

"It's fine. Hehe, even if I don't call you, you won't get used to it?" Mo Xiao Yan smiled humbly.

"I'm not too sure. It's just that you've always stuck close to me when you saw me in the past. Why do you feel distant from me today? Is it because I haven't seen you for a long time?" Jiang Wen asked.

"How could that be? It's just that you're sensible now, I can't stick close to you forever." Mo Xiao Yan felt a little awkward, the original owner was also drunk.

"That's good. I'll go catch some fish. You just wait here."

It seemed that he still had a pair of brushes. He used his dagger to slice a bamboo and a sharp end to stab a fish.

It was rare to miss, and in a short period of time, there were three fish.

The size of each fish was not small, enough for a few people to eat.

"Xiao Yan, shall we roast it here?" Jiang Wen asked.

Mo Xiao Yan often ate grilled fish in the modern world, he had only grilled fish in the wild, he had never eaten fish before.

"Sure, why don't we find some firewood?" Mo Xiao Yan said.

"Alright, I'll go look for it. You just stay here and watch the fish." With that said, Jiang Wen headed towards the forest to find firewood.

Mo Xiao Yan quickly called out to Jiang Wen, "Then I'll go, clean up the fish belly right here."

"Can you do it alone? How about I go? " Jiang Wen was a little worried.

"No problem, I'll go."

Mo Xiao Yan went into the forest to find firewood. Jiang Wen killed the fish by the river to clean his stomach and then washed it in the river. The third fish just finished cleaning up and Mo Xiao Yan had already brought the firewood over.

Jiang Wen brought a fire piston and set it on fire, then used a stick to string the fish, while the two people roasted the fish on it. After roasting it for a while, Mo Xiao Yan could smell the fragrance of the fish.

It wasn't long before it was cooked. Even without adding any seasonings, it was still very, very tasty.

The two of them quickly finished the two fishes. Mo Xiao Yan looked at Jiang Wen and asked: "What were you doing here just now? Will there be any problems? I didn't detain you, did I? "

After eating, Jiang Wen patted the dirt on his hands and said: "I just came back from town this morning. My grandfather was sick, so he came to the river to catch some fishes to stew and drink.

"Oh, so that's how it is. Then quickly go and catch some fish. I'll wait here for you." Mo Xiao Yan said with a smile.

"Alright, then please sit here for a moment. After I finish capturing them, the two of us will leave together."

Mo Xiao Yan sat on a rock by the river, waiting for Jiang Wen to take action. He watched him use the bamboo to cut the fish, which quickly amounted to three or four fish, and with the one fish left over, it was more than enough for a family to eat.

After hanging it up, the two of them returned to the village together.

"Xiao Yan, how about I send you back?" Halfway there, Jiang Wen asked.

"No need. I'll go back by myself in the middle of the day. Hurry up and go back." Mo Xiao Yan rejected him.

In any case, the distance from here to Mo Xiao Yan's home was not far, and Jiang Wen did not persist "Then quickly go home, do not run around."

"I understand. Alright, I'll go back first. You should also go back quickly." After saying that, they went home.

Just as he arrived at the courtyard door, he saw Yao Gui Hua sitting on the floor by the door. Seeing that Mo Xiao Yan had returned, he hurriedly patted the dust off his butt and blocked the door.

"Aunt, what are you doing?" Mo Xiao Yan looked at Yao Gui Hua's actions in a slight bafflement.

"What is it? Why do you still have the nerve to ask me? Your family's ingrate, how long has it been? " Yao Gui Hua glared fiercely at Mo Xiao Yan and said.

"Don't be too harsh with your words. Be careful of what you say." Mo Xiao Yan said as he looked at her in disdain.

"Aiyo, you little slut, how dare you talk back to me, if I don't teach you a lesson today, I won't be Yao Gui Hua anymore." As he said that, he pounced towards Mo Xiao Yan.

Fortunately, Mo Xiao Yan's reaction was fast, before she could pounce towards him, he had already dodged it.

With this flash, Yao Gui Hua was already empty-handed. The anger in her heart immediately grew even stronger, it seemed like she would not rest until she beat Mo Xiao Yan up again today.

At the same time, Mo Xiao Yan made a funny face at Yao Gui Hua, making him even angrier.

It was a good thing that they were outside the courtyard this time, so there was still room for escape.

Without even thinking about it, Mo Xiao Yan's first reaction was to run.

Mo Xiao Yan ran in front while cursing and swearing.

After running for a while, because she was in a rush, Mo Xiao Yan was breathless. Yao Gui Hua was about to catch up to her, if she caught up to him, she would definitely not be able to beat her, if he got caught, she would get beaten half to death.

Actually, he didn't run far. It was just that the body of the original owner was too weak to run any further.

In the end, Yao Gui Hua still managed to grab hold of him.

Seeing Yao Gui Hua's panting, she was probably exhausted.

Just as Yao Gui Hua held Mo Xiao Yan tightly and was about to slap her face, Mo Xiao Yan was so shocked that he quickly turned his head away.

But that slap still did not come down, and carefully opened his eyes, only to discover that someone had grabbed Yao Gui Hua's arm.
