"After all, who told you to knock that kid down?"

"It was said that I didn't do it on purpose. Who knew he would emerge from the river."

"Do you think I'll believe it?" Sayuri sighed softly, raised her chin in her hand, and said earnestly with a sad face, "Even if that child is cute, don't do anything criminal."

"Mom, I don't want to throw my child into prison with my own hands."

"How many times do you want me to say this, I didn't mean it!" Yin Lili's forehead was blanched with blue veins, and she was a little exasperated.

"Hi~" Sayuri waved her hand with a smile, obviously she was teasing her daughter. Seeing that Ying Lili was really about to get angry, she just accepted it.

"What a nasty guy." Eiri muttered in a low voice, then turned to look at the grass beside her.

The silver-haired dragon was sticking his head out of the grass at this moment, and looked at this side carefully, but seeing Ying Lili looking over, he suddenly felt as if he was in a panic, and let out a low-pitched scream.

"Woo~"

Tudou shrank his head back. If he looked closely, he would find that he was squatting in the grass to hold his head and prevent him from squatting.

For dragons, being knocked down is almost the same as being knocked down by a human woman...well, because potatoes are male, this analogy is not accurate.

To put it another way, from the point of view of Tudou, Eri-ri's behavior was like attacking his enemy.

To know the battle between dragons, the dominant party will forcibly press on the weaker party, and then frantically bite the neck and the like.

And no matter what kind of animal it is, it doesn't like being pressed under its body... Well, except when mating, so Eri was bitten by the highly reactive potato.

But thanks to the fact that Tudou seemed to recognize the biped who gave him ice cream at the amusement park before, otherwise, I'm afraid it wouldn't be a light bite on the hand, just to express the degree of dissatisfaction.

"..." Eiri scratched her cheek in embarrassment.

Even if you don't know that the main body of a potato is a dragon, even among humans, throwing a person to the ground is quite embarrassing.

Although in fact, it wasn't her fault, but seeing Tudou secretly looking at herself like a frightened bunny, she instinctively felt that she was wrong.

"Sorry, little potato." Inri tried to approach the potato, but he took two steps back and made a warning sound at the same time.

Don't come here~

If it weren't for the fact that the biped had been fed, the potato would have hit him head-on. But even though he didn't turn his head and run away because of his previous fate, he began to think about whether to mark this biped as a "strong X demon" and stay away from her.

However, after Ying Lili took out a bag of snacks that seemed to be eaten, Tudou quickly forgot about it and stared at the bag in her hand.

......

"Hey~" The silver-haired dragon tried his best to climb onto the chair, then squatted on the chair and watched the chef hired by the Sawamura family who was carefully preparing the fish. He was going to watch the fish on the grill in front of him.

OvO~

"Zizi~"

The thinly sliced ​​fish fillets are grilled on a charcoal fire with an attractive crackling sound of fat, and the crispy fish fillets exude a strong aroma and look delicious.

Potato gently swallowed the saliva that was about to overflow, and then more saliva secreted in his mouth.

A few drops of sweat fell on the forehead of the chef who was stared at by potatoes. He was a bit Alexander. Although it was not the first time someone was staring at him while cooking, for some unknown reason, the chef suddenly felt like he would be thrown into the river if he didn't cook well.

Well, after all, the fish he was cooking was caught by potatoes. For his own things, he has always been very valued.

If the cook is not good, the potatoes might actually throw him into the river and let him catch fish as compensation.

"Please, please take it slow!"

The well-baked fish fillets were carefully placed by the chef, and then carefully pushed in front of the potatoes.

The potatoes tasted the deliciousness just out of the oven. The fish was taken from the tenderest abdomen of the fish. After a simple charcoal grilling, it had a slight browning feeling, but it did not affect the tenderness of the inside of the fish.

Pure natural wild river fish with a faint fragrance. Even the potatoes who had eaten the cat rice made by the chef gave a thumbs up at this time and gave a compliment to the chef of the chef.

"Is it delicious?" Sayuri looked at Potato's happy face chewing food, and reached out and touched his head.

"Hmm~" Tudou raised his face and looked at her, but he didn't react much, but continued to stare at the movements of the chef's hands.

Although Xiaobai didn't eat, but for the sake of introducing herself to a good chef, Potato acquiesced to her to touch her head.

"I want too~" Ying Li Li also came over at this time and extended her hand to Potato.

Noticing Eiri's outstretched hand, Potato's pupils instantly narrowed into a slit. Although Ying Lili didn't do any strange actions after that, at least it was no longer equated with "strong X demon", but he was still instinctively wary of this biped that would only hold him down.

At least not without feeding.

Seeing Potato's unhappy look, Ying Riri slapped her hand and subconsciously retracted her hand. It hurts to bite the potato, at least as long as it doesn't hurt, and she has some lingering fears.

After thinking for a while, Eiri picked up the fishing rod.

......

After noticing that the potatoes were gone, Shiyu Kasumigaoka, who was worried that this little guy would make trouble while she was away, was looking everywhere.

Then she found a potato squatting by the river with a simple fishing rod in the upper reaches of the river. But at this time, he seemed to be in a bad mood and was throwing stones into the river.

"What's wrong?"

"Poetry~I can't catch it~" Tudou raised his small face and looked at Shiyu of Kasumigaoka, with a shriveled mouth and an unhappy look on his face.

Obviously that biped just now did this, why didn't these fish take the bait? Potato tilted his head blankly, he really couldn't understand why those fish didn't bite the hook.

Obviously, they used delicious snacks. Potato lifted the fishing rod, wondering if there was something wrong, and then took apart the snack from the fishing line and stuffed it into his mouth.

"..." Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu twitched the corners of his mouth upon seeing this.

Although she didn't know what happened, she knew that with the potato fishing method, she wouldn't even try to catch fish for ten years.

No.102 Great Harvest

"Wow!" Bai Feng pulled up the fishing rod, the hook was empty, and even the bait he prepared showed no sign of being eaten.

After the capture of the Lava Mountain Dragon, the investigation team is preparing to investigate the new world behind the canyon that the Lava Mountain Dragon forcibly smashed open.

However, the passage to the other side is not stable enough. At this time, a lot of gravel often falls and blocks the road. Bai Feng, who is the main investigator, can only do something idle before the props class finishes cleaning the road. Simple collection tasks.

But today he was busy all morning and only caught two or three small fish. Normally, he would have already completed the prescribed amount and returned to the base.

"Why are the fish disappearing?" Bai Feng scratched his head, thinking about whether to fish in another place.

At the same time, in the upper reaches of the river, silver dragons danced happily in the low sky. The river originating from the ancient tree forest brings a steady stream of water resources. Countless plants spread and grow on this fertile land, which also provides sufficient nourishment for the fish.

Big fat fish can be seen everywhere, like a silver-gray tide. Potatoes who saw this scene showed a happy expression.

Potato dropped the prepared fishing net in the river, and the fish fell into the trap prepared by the cunning predator, and then could not break free.

The meshes of the fishing nets that come from the hunters are extraordinarily huge. This is the bottom line of the fishermen's ethics and the lifeline of the fish.

As a hunter who protects the ecology through hunting, naturally he will not do anything to destroy the ecology for his own sake.

In order not to kill chickens to retrieve their eggs, fishing nets only leave those big fish that are huge enough to drag their heavy bodies out of the trap.

But potatoes don't have this concept of sustainable development. Whether they are big fish or small fish, they are edible in his eyes. The big deal is to put them together and stew the soup. As long as there are enough quantities, you can still eat enough.

Even for humans, it's not enough to spread between their teeth, and they don't even think about small fry with teeth, and potatoes have no plans to let them go. He tied all kinds of aquatic plants to the fishing net and blocked the net holes as much as possible. This kind of dead net made it clear that he wanted to catch the fish in one net.

The young dragon tied both ends of the fishing net to the big trees on both sides of the river, and when the fish jumped into the traps he had set up one by one, the potatoes slowly closed the pockets of the fishing net.

Sure enough, this is more efficient~ Looking at the whole net of catch, Potato nodded in satisfaction. These things are enough for him to eat for a while.

After he tried fishing but couldn't catch it, he completely gave up that completely inefficient method, and chose to cast a net directly to catch it.

And potatoes can think of this method, thanks to an unknown fish researcher, but the price is that the number of fish in the entire ancient tree forest area has plummeted.

But what does this have to do with my little potato?

......

Star stronghold, dock.

"This is the New World~ It looks quite spectacular~" A strong-bodied man stood on the bow and looked around.

Although the Xingchen stronghold is a bit downcast compared to the big city he once lived in, it is like a house built by poor people in the countryside.

But the man is not an idiot, he knows that this is a compromise made to maximize the defense performance of the base, not for aesthetics.

"It seems quite safe." The man nodded with satisfaction.

As the boat was firmly docked at the dock, the man got off the boat first, and then took out a scroll made of some kind of monster skin from the small bag at his waist.

"Welcome to the New World." The commander-in-chief checked the document that the man brought out with the supply ship. It said that the Hunter Guild of the Old World had sent an investigator to the New World.

Due to the failure of the capture operation of the molten mountain dragon, the guild specially sent an investigator to investigate the situation of this major failure.

Although the Hunter Guild knows that facing ancient dragons, especially the super-large ancient dragons like the Lava Dragon, the hunters may not be able to complete the task even if they try their best.

But those nobles and businessmen who invested behind the guild didn't care so much. They only knew that they didn't get anything except for some pitiful ancient dragon materials.

No matter which world it is, nobles and merchants are similar. Although hunters hate these short-sighted guys very much, in order to appease these money bags, the Hunters Guild pretended to send an investigator here.

In name, it was a fault in the investigation, but in reality, it was just for the investigator to travel around the New World, and by the way, follow the returning supply ship to bring some souvenirs back.

"The details of the matter have been explained by the guild before." The commander-in-chief nodded and patted the incoming investigator on the shoulder.

"That's good." The investigator breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that he would be taken by the commander-in-chief to find fault.

"Anyway, during your time in the New World, let's have a good experience. The situation here is different from the Old World."

"If possible, can you take me to eat something first?" The investigator scratched his hair with a wry smile. "I've been eating fish every day lately, and I'm about to vomit. I want to change my taste."

There is a considerable distance between the New World and the Old World, and a large number of dangerous undercurrents made it difficult to travel back and forth between the two continents until a few decades ago.

Even with the most advanced ships, it would take two or three weeks to reach the new continent from the old continent, not to mention the fact that the supply ships were loaded with a large amount of materials, which slowed down the speed of travel.

Although the supply ship is loaded with a lot of food, these are all things prepared for the New World, and naturally it is not the crew's turn to enjoy themselves.

The main food on the sea is naturally the gift of nature. Although the catch is very delicious, eating it for several weeks at a time still makes the investigators a little disgusted.

I don't want to eat fish, but want to eat some other food. Originally, this should be a very simple thing. Even when the investigation team first arrived in the New World, this requirement could be met, but...

The commander-in-chief showed a somewhat hesitant expression at this time: "Although I really want to promise you, but... Recently, the kitchen has been preparing fish, and we also eat fish every day, so I don't know if the chef has prepared it. other ingredients."

"Huh?" The investigator was stunned for a moment, then blinked his eyes suspiciously, "Are there many fish here?"

Otherwise, why eat fish every day?

"It's not a lot...well, you should understand when you arrive." The commander-in-chief said something confusing, then called his grandson and led the investigator to the dining area.

No.103 Barter

"..." The hunters sat around the dining table, holding knives and forks, staring at the cat food in front of them with a strange expression.

Everyone was silent at this time, and no one was ready to start eating. Except for a girl who was reincarnated from a loofah, all the hunters were ashen, as if they were about to go to the execution ground.

The girl devoured all the cat food and put down the plate that was licked cleaner than her face. She looked at the others with a puzzled expression: "Why don't you eat it?"

"It's delicious~"

No, the only one who can eat at this time is you. The hunters complained silently in their hearts, even the girl's partner, Bai Feng.

The hunters don't eat cat food. It's not because of what happened that they can't eat it, or because today's cat food is not delicious.

The cooking level in the kitchen has not decreased, and it is still delicious, but... I only eat fish for a week, and even the delicious food is about to vomit!

Fish soup, grilled fish, fried fish...Although Ailu cat chefs have shown their skills and cooked all kinds of dishes, in the end, they are still fish.

The hunters turned their heads to look at a table at the same time, and the silver-haired dragon man was sitting on a chair holding a huge bone and meat to eat.

"Gudu~" The hunters swallowed.

Although they often ate this kind of food before, sometimes they would get tired of eating it, but after eating fish for so long, they felt like they were about to become cats. Now, smelling the aroma of barbecue is really nostalgic and greedy. .

He tore and swallowed the large piece of meat, the potato licked on the huge stick bone, and the tiny barbs on the tongue scraped off all the minced meat remaining on the bone, leaving only the bare bones.

After making sure to eat the meat without waste, the potato smashed the bones with a stone, and then sucked the sweet marrow inside.

"Delicious~" Potato licked the corner of his mouth with satisfaction.

After confirming that there was nothing to eat, the potato threw the bones aside, took out a handful of gold coins from the pocket on the table, and stuffed it into the hands of an Elu cat chef, all of whom he worked hard for. results.

Because the previous weekend went to the river to play and failed to catch any fish, Tudou, who was full of resentment, learned how to use fishing nets to fish from fish research scholars.

Although he had a good harvest, he couldn't eat all that much, and Shiyu Kasumigaoka couldn't cook all the potatoes he caught.

There is no room for fish at home, and it would be a pity if they all died. Therefore, Shiyu of Kasumigaoka left a small part for the potatoes, and sold the rest to the chef.

Anyway, the money can be exchanged for other food in the dining area, but potatoes don't mind selling their prey to hunters.

Although this solves the trouble of harvesting too much to a certain extent, it is really not good news for hunters.
