884. Two good players (3)
Dragon lice, commonly known as water turtle, also known as water turtle, water turtle, piss turtle, black turtle bean, etc. It is aquatic insects with more than 4,000 foods around the world, and has a very diverse diet, from insects to fish larger than itself.
There are also many types of dragon lice in China. Among them, the local dragon lice in Hongyang is called Huangxing Big Dragon lice. It is a dual-purpose insect with a unique flavor and rich nutrition. It is a dish in the local area.
The insect like a dragon lice looks a bit disgusting, but in fact it is very edible. There is a local proverb called "big black dogs on the ground, monkeys crawling on trees, and black turtles in the water". This proverb refers to three kinds of delicacies, cicada monkeys, black dog meat, and dragon lice commonly known as black turtles.
When Ao Xiaomi and his group of teenagers were catching dragon lice, Ao Muyang was excited and asked, "Oh, are there dragon lice on the lake? Are there many?"
Dragon lice can swim and fly well. They live in freshwater areas such as ponds, swamps, ditches and other waters with a lot of aquatic plants. They do not strictly require water quality. When I was a teenager, Ao Muyang often caught Dragon lice. This thing tastes delicious, it can be fried, fried or roasted. After being seasoned with five-spice, it is crispy and delicious, and can be called a delicacy.
As he grabbed it, this thing was very rare. Ao Muyang was looking for it on the lake two years ago, but he didn't find a few, which made him feel quite regretful.
Not only is the rare dragon lice in Ambergris Lake now, but there are no such aquatic insects in the entire natural waters of the Red Ocean, so it has to be cultivated manually.
The trefoils sold on the market are now all artificially raised, eating feed such as corn flour, rice bran, and wheat bran. However, the trefoils are carnivorous under natural conditions. They grow fast in feed, but they have low protein content and poor taste.
Occasionally, there are farms that pay attention to feeding cheap ragged fruits, broken snails or pigs, chickens, cows, and ducks. The trefolles raised in this way taste better than those raised in feed. They often have fixed customers and can be sold out without entering the market and selling them in a retail manner.
When Ao Muyang learned that there were many dragon lice in the lake now, he rowed a boat and took the bottle to find it.
When he rowed into the water grass by the lake, he saw a few big black bugs roaming among the water grass. These bugs looked like golden beetles, but they looked pitch black. Looking down at them, they looked like big watermelon seeds, but they had a small yellow dot on their heads. This is the local red ocean dragon lice breed, the yellow star big dragon lice.
Speaking of which, the dragon lice looks a bit disgusting, but it can't stand its beautiful taste. In this magical land of China, whether a creature is endangered or flooded depends on whether it can be eaten or not, whether it looks like it.
Speaking of which, the reproductive ability of the dragon lice is still very strong, and they are also strong in combat. The larvae of the water lice even has the same nickname as the piranha, the water tiger.
As a result, no matter what, when people know it is nutritious and delicious, the population becomes dangerous.
Dragon lice are not only delicious, but also have medical effects. Modern medical research can enhance the body's ability to adapt to sports load and have good anti-fatigue function. In traditional Chinese medicine classics such as "Bencao Shiyi" and "Luchuan Bencao", they believe that Dragon lice belongs to the kidney meridian, can nourish the kidney, shrink urine, and activate blood circulation.
Tonify the kidneys, promote blood circulation...
If anything is involved in these two words, the tribe will not be able to spread!
Ao Muyang didn't notice it before. There were indeed many dragon lice in Ambergris this year. I don't know if it was related to people's release of animals. Some people may have released dragon lice here.
In short, he immediately seized the opportunity to start. Although there were a lot of dragon lice in the grass, it would soon disappear once the news spread.
The teenagers also knew this. They swam in the water and searched for the dragon lice carefully. Who was still singing happily: "Strip your heart and my heart, string you lucky insects, string you concentric circles, let all the call of looking forward to the future and be a companion while you are young..."
Dragon lice are delicious and not easy to catch. They are known as the king of rowing boats in nature. As one of the few aquatic beetles, the hind feet of the dragon lice evolved like plaster, flat and covered with long hair, so that they can parade rapidly in the water.
In addition, their bodies are oval and their black shells are very smooth, which minimizes the flight resistance, can fly up and down and swim, and are good at air and water battles.
But if it falls on the ground, they won't work, so it's best to attract them to land by catching dragon lice.
There is a simple method to catch dragon lice on the ground. It is this method that causes dragon lice to become increasingly rare. Like most aquatic insects and fish, dragon lice has strong phototaxis.
In this way, during the day, you can find a place with a lot of dragon lice in the lake and river, and at night, you can hang a flashlight by the lake and river. You can catch all the surrounding dragon lice in less than two hours.
Some villagers have already discovered that many dragon lice appeared in the lake. They did not come to catch them, but went back happily to get the lights and prepare for a big move tonight.
Ao Muyang caught it with his own hands, which was quite difficult. Whether the dragon lice are flying or gliding on the water, they are very fast at this time, so they have to catch it while they stop.
But they are very good at disguising. Once they stop, they will hide behind the grass leaves or drill into the sand by the lake. Only when they find prey will they emerge.
Ao Xiaomi had been catching it for a while, but the mineral water bottle on her waist was still empty, which shows how difficult it was to capture it.
Ao Muyang's movements were faster than them. He rowed into the water grass, and then saw a dragon lice hiding behind the water grass leaves. He immediately waved his hand to catch the dragon lice.
But the dragon lice will not sit and wait for death. If the ship pushes the water plants and moves, they will immediately run away, and it will be even more difficult to catch the flying dragon lice.
Ao Muyang took action very carefully and grabbed it for more than ten minutes, but he only caught five dragon lice, which made him helpless.
The two little monkeys hiding in his pocket emerged. They looked at them for a while and then crawled out one after another.
A cattail jumped onto a cattail, and the cattail next to it had thick rhizomes. A dragon lice climbed on it, waiting for food to come to the door.
While the dragon lice was not prepared, it jumped up in a trouser pocket. It grabbed the rhizome of cattails with its forelimbs and clamped the dragon lice with its left foot.
After catching the dragon lice, it looked like a man-like mountain. It pulled the water plants with both hands and jumped, and soon returned to Ao Muyang, let go of his left foot and put a dragon lice in front of him.
Ao Muyang was overjoyed and immediately rewarded him with a little gold drop: "Okay, trouser pocket, you can!"
The little monkey ate the golden drops and jumped around and then attacked again. At this time, her pocket was also captured, and she also caught a dragon lice and came back, proudly jumping on Ao Muyang's legs.
