177: Mountain Crickets, Stone Slab Barbecue

Yang Fan, hearing Su Can's shout, instantly perked up and excitedly responded, "Yes, I really, really want to!"

"Wild rabbit meat from the mountains, that's one of the mountain delicacies, incredibly delicious. In big cities, people in ordinary circles can't even get to eat it!"

Not to mention Yang Fan wanting to eat it; everyone present, who wouldn't want to?

Mountain rabbit meat, one of the mountain delicacies.

Even simply roasted, it would be much tastier than the compressed dry rations they held.

Although Su Can was only at the stage of cleaning and slicing the meat, he couldn't stop everyone's imagination.

They even fantasized about the aroma of the meat filling the air.

Su Can had expected that Yang Fan wouldn't refuse and said with a smile, "If you want to eat, then bring over the rabbit's internal organs and intestines that I just cleaned!"

"What? Can that stuff be eaten too?"

Yang Fan was stunned for a moment.

Su Can chuckled, "What are you thinking? When I was cleaning the rabbit meat just now, I found crayfish in this stream. I guess the smell of blood attracted them!"

"I told you to bring the rabbit's internal organs and intestines to throw into the stream to lure the crayfish from the cracks in the stones."

"These crayfish are a delicacy, no less than mountain rabbit meat. If you want to eat, hurry up and bring them over to catch some."

"Crayfish?!"

"Good heavens, there are these things in Huangshan? Aren't crayfish a specialty of the Northeast?"

Very good, it seems this thing called crayfish also touched upon a blind spot in Yang Fan's geographical knowledge.

Su Can was too lazy to explain and urged, "Alright, if you want to eat, hurry up and bring them over to catch them. We'll roast them all together later!"

"Alright, alright, I'm coming, hehe!"

Yang Fan was overjoyed at the words, taking three steps in two, walking to where Su Can had just butchered the mountain rabbit, found a sturdy dead branch, and picked up all the rabbit's internal organs and intestines.

"Coming, coming!"

He held up the branch and ran excitedly towards Su Can. The internal organs fell a few times in between, which made him simply throw the branch away and walk over with them in his hands.

Su Can saw him coming, looked up, and said, "This stream is quite long, and this place is rarely visited and undeveloped, so there must be many crayfish. Space them out, and throw some internal organs in every so often."

"These things are very sensitive to the smell of blood in the water. Just a piece will attract them out of their stone crevice dens!"

Su Can instructed him.

"Okay, got it!"

Yang Fan chuckled, not minding the blood, and walked a bit, throwing a piece of the rabbit's internal organs and intestines.

Then he walked back and forth, observing the stream.

In less than two minutes, he cried out in surprise, "They're coming out, they're coming out! Wow, there are a lot of crayfish, and they're all a good size."

"Oh my god, there really are so many! Zhu Lei, hurry up and come over, catch crayfish with me. We'll try them together later, it's much better than eating compressed dry rations!"

Yang Fan watched as more and more crayfish crawled out of their dens and stone crevices in the stream, excitedly calling out to Zhu Lei.

"Really? Let me see!"

Zhu Lei also said, a little curious and surprised, and walked over cheerfully.

Su Ran also walked over at the same time; she was also quite happy. Su Can had brought her too many surprises.

Wei Dandan and the others were also quite curious, their gazes frequently looking this way.

Clearly, they also wanted to come and see, but out of pride, they forced themselves to suppress their curiosity and not come.

"Wow, there are so many crayfish! How can there be so many?"

Zhu Lei and Su Ran, who came to the stream, quickly exclaimed in surprise.

Zhu Lei even took off her shoes and socks and went into the stream to catch them, giggling.

Su Ran also wanted to go down and was about to take off her shoes when Su Can called out, "You don't need to go down. You can pick up some dry branches around here. We'll need them to start a fire for grilling later!"

"Ah? Oh, okay."

Su Ran was initially called and didn't react, but once she did, she immediately happily went to pick up dry branches.

In the mountains, the one thing not lacking was dry branches.

She even picked up many dry branches without moving from her spot.

Su Can turned his head and glanced, laughing wryly, "Don't pick those particularly thin ones. Try to pick thicker branches. Thin ones tend to smoke a lot, and we don't want to be discovered."

"Thicker branches don't produce much smoke when burning, and the fire is also stronger and more even!"

Su Can was indirectly imparting survival knowledge to her.

"Then why didn't you say so earlier? You made me pick so many."

Su Ran turned her head and rolled her eyes, a playful pout on her face, looking incredibly charming.

Especially when she turned around, her assault jacket outlined her figure, making Su Can involuntarily swallow.

"Hahaha!"

Yang Fan's excited and hearty laughter came from beside them, "Old Su, I've found you really are everyone's lucky star! Your luck is too good. This unassuming stream actually hides so many crayfish. These are enough for us to have a good feast!"

"It's a pity there's no big iron pot, otherwise, a stir-fry with some chili would definitely be more satisfying than eating crawfish!"

"You shut up, can't you be content? In these mountains, it's good enough to let you eat such a delicacy. You still want a big iron pot and spicy stir-fry? You're dreaming!"

Zhu Lei couldn't help but tease him with a smile.

In a short while, the two of them had caught many crayfish.

Su Can saw this, and with a thought, a plastic bag was taken out and thrown on the ground, saying:

"Here's a bag for each of you. Put all the crayfish in there, otherwise, catching them and having them run away is a waste of effort!"

Yang Fan laughed in surprise, "Old Su, how do you carry so many things on you, and they all happen to be useful?"

"Stop rambling, hurry up and put the caught crayfish into the bags, otherwise, they'll really crawl away soon."

Su Can smiled, changing the subject and diverting attention.

Indeed, Yang Fan immediately diverted his attention and excitedly started bagging the crayfish.

Su Ran had also picked enough branches, piling them next to Su Can, "Is this enough?"

"Mm-hmm, that's about right. You go help pick crayfish too. This mountain is rarely visited, and there are plenty of crayfish, enough for everyone to have a good feast."

Su Can looked at the branches at his feet and smiled.

At the same time, he had also finished slicing all the rabbit meat.

Then he walked to one side, the xiuchun blade flashed, and with a 'swish', he cut a piece of stone, then carved it into a stone slab of moderate thickness, and took it to the stream to rinse it.

Afterward, he brought two more stones, placed the slab on top, leaving a gap underneath, just enough to place dry branches.

Seeing this, everyone must know what Su Can was going to do.

That's right!

Stone slab barbecue!

Su Can was planning to make a simple stone slab barbecue!
