Chapter 231 The Taste of Barbecue

Qi Ya was taken aback by the hairtail he had caught. He seemed a bit disgusted with all creatures that were soft and similar to bugs.

"Ah, it's disgusting, I don't want to fish anymore." Qi Ya hurriedly left the barrel and handed the fishing rod to Ivan, not even paying attention to the fish he had caught.

The hairtail on the hook was skillfully taken off by Xiaojie, and then the Shanghai centipede was hung again, with a soft "puff", the slight ripples on the sea surface, but they were quickly smoothed by the waves, leaving only the buoy undulating Volt.

"Does Ivan also fish?" Xiaojie asked Ivan, passing the fishing rod in his hand.

"Well, I live on a small fishing island, and I’ve been splashing in the water since I was a kid. When I go to the tavern at my house in the off-season, when there is no business, I will go fishing or help the fishermen do something within their power to reduce the expenses at home "Ivan said in remembrance, whispering softly, as if he was thinking of his childhood life.

The life of an orphan is not a very happy life. Thanks to the care of the residents on Flying Fish Island, otherwise life will be even harder. Ivan still remembers that Magino, who is about the height of an oak table, is holding a sweet ale. The appearance of the wine barrel moving hard.

The little face was flushed with sweat, and his forehead was full of sweat. At that time, he was carried behind his back by Magino. He was so small that he could not do anything.

As he grew up, he gradually took over the task of getting wine for everyone by Magino. Magino also began to work behind the wine counter and in the kitchen. The two brothers and sisters were relatively comfortable.

"Is Yifan's house also runs a tavern?" Xiaojie sat down on the railing of the warship and asked curiously.

"Yeah, it was my sister who raised me. My parents didn't have a long time since I was born, almost a month later, when they went fishing and encountered a shipwreck." Ivan said calmly.

As for the parents, Ivan doesn’t have many memories. Even if he was born, he has memories of his previous life, but the memories that should be lost will also be lost. No one will remember what you ate for lunch ten years ago today. , Who did you meet.

Ivan is no exception, but you can see from Mackinaw that they are two great people.

"I was raised by Aunt Mitte, and I have never met my parents. Aunt Mitte told me that my parents are dead, but there was a hunter who came to Whale Island. I just knew that I His father is an amazing hunter, his name is Jin.

I really wanted to know his favorite profession, so I took the hunter exam."Xiaojie said to Ivan.

There was no sadness in his eyes. Looking at Xiaojie's pure eyes like spring water, it was easy for people to want to guard such a purity.

Seagulls call, the cold sea breeze blows by, the bright sunshine, and it is easy for people to like this tranquility.

"That's it, then come on!" Ivan stretched out his right hand and nodded Xiaojie's forehead.

"Teach you two to fish. I am very knowledgeable about fishing." Ivan said leisurely, sitting on the barrel, holding the fishing rod in both hands.

"The first thing is to relax, close your eyes, and imagine yourself like a drop of water, a stone, or almost invisible dust in the air." Ivan said softly.

While talking, Ivan's figure seemed to exist and disappear, not that it did not exist, but it became imperceptible, like the air, clearly there, but it was not noticeable.

Even Xiaojie and Qi Ya, who had been watching him all the time, would divert their eyes from time to time, as if Ivan had disappeared into their sight..

This sudden change made the two people full of interest.

"Then I emptied my brain and dispelled my distracting thoughts bit by bit until I had no thoughts, but I could feel the wind blowing by my side and the waves of the ocean below my feet."

"At this time, you can feel the sound of creatures. Follow the fishing line and the buoy ups and downs. You can see the marine fish spinning around the bait. It hesitates, but it can’t resist the temptation of food. It moves forward and moves forward. , Finally it bit the hook."

When Ivan said this, he raised the fishing rod in his hand, and a sea fish jumped out of the sea and landed on the deck.

"That's it, it's easy, you can try it." Yifan said, handing out a fishing rod to both Xiaojie and Qiya.

······

"No way!" Xiaojie lay directly on the barrel. The fishing skills Ivan said he couldn't learn at all, and he couldn't do it after trying for a long time.

"It doesn't work, not everyone is the same. Come and eat grilled octopus whiskers." Ivan did not force Xiaojie and Qi Ya to learn such skills.

This is a very deep mind skill, or a state of mind. The reason why it was spoken out by fishing is just to plant a small seed in the hearts of these two little guys to lay the foundation for their future study of mind power.

[Zen] is the most basic way to learn the power of mind in Aizhen, and it is also the most effective for people who have never been in contact with mind.

The octopus tentacles were cut into slices by the bone knife in Ivan's hand. They were evenly thin and thick. The spice penetrated into the interior and kept the juice, maintaining the best taste.

In the chewing room, apart from the aroma of the barbecue, the savory scent of the octopus itself spreads over the tongue in the splash of juice, and feels the spice that absorbs the essence of the earth from nature and collides with the savory flavor of the ocean.

On the iron frame net, the sliced ​​octopus tentacles are imprinted and sizzling. There is no need to paint the surface. The tentacles of the D-class gourmet creature king octopus contain rich oil.

Put it on the grilling net, it sizzles, and the fragrant grease splashes, just listening to the seductive sound makes people can't help drooling.

"It's delicious." Xiaojie said with appreciation, taking a bite of the octopus flakes, feeling the deliciousness on the tip of his tongue.

"Really, let's eat more, there are more." Ivan laughed, and Qi Ya had already gnawed on the octopus slices, just like a cat eating.

At this time, a ship not far away ignited a big fire, thick smoke billowing, fireworks lingering, countless seagulls seemed to perceive something, and they made a tragic cry, skipping from the sky, adding some desolation.

Kurapika and Leoli walked back from the direction of the flame, and under the setting sun, they stretched their shadows extremely long.

"Let's eat something, after a busy day, I think you are tired too." Ivan invited.

Five people sat around the grill, enjoying octopus flakes and some other sea fish caught.

The firework that comes with the barbecue itself, coupled with the specially configured barbecue spices, the juice in the meat, mixed together, is an indescribable delicacy, especially when a group of people gather together, the only pity is that the wine is missing .
