Chapter 1630 [Fufu’s Bizarre Adventure 22] Call Xianglan-sama meow!
She once again declined the third princess' invitation to serve as judges for the food festival with Feng Ying.
Fu Fu left the luxurious hotel suite early in the morning with the fish steak, ready to start her journey to the desert.
Traveling with her, of course, was the Second Prince, who was carrying a large bundle of harpoons.
He only finds a chance to take some vacation time for a great fishing trip every few years. He just wants to set off right now and not waste a minute in the city!
Of course, it was no use for him to be anxious.
When His Royal Highness the Prince and Fu Fu, who was holding the president's letter of introduction, arrived at the dock of the fishing fleet, these tough guys who galloped across the sand sea were busy working.
It would take at least two or three days to repair the sails, weave the ropes, and sharpen the harpoon to complete all preparations before setting sail.
The person leading everyone in the preparations was a man who looked to be in his fifties, with slightly graying temples but still strong muscles. He was also the captain of this fishing fleet.
"Those chirping tourists again?"
Noticing a stranger coming into the dock, the captain frowned and strode over.
Fu Fu quickly hid behind the second prince and secretly looked at the man.
This fisherman uncle has high cheekbones and bulging masseter muscles, giving people the feeling that he has a tough personality and is difficult to talk to.
This was indeed the case. He stood in front of the two people and the cat, and said in a gruff voice, "This is a private area. No visitors are allowed. Leave."
Wow, so fierce!
Fu Fu was secretly shocked. Just as she was about to take out the letter of introduction that the mustache president had prepared for her, she heard Uncle Harpoon Prince burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha! I haven't seen you for a few years. Don't you recognize me, brother?"
The captain leaned closer and stared at the second prince's face for two seconds, then his eyes widened, "Oh, oh, oh! Isn't this the best harpooner under my command?
When did you return to Rocklark? Why didn't you tell me in advance? Brothers, please welcome you!"
The two middle-aged men hugged each other, and under the loud voice of the boat captain, more and more fishermen gathered around.
Fu Fu was worried that the fish steak would be stepped on, so she quickly picked it up, but then found that she was in danger.
She's being squeezed to death.
"Get out of the way! Can't you see that the little girl is being squeezed by you? Get back! Get back to work!"
The boat captain cursed and beat up the fishermen who came over to say hello and watch the fun.
The originally cold expression also became much softer.
The captain stretched out his rough, calloused hand and rubbed Fufu's head twice. He then looked at a certain prince and said, "Your daughter? She's so beautiful!"
The second prince laughed dryly, "No, it's my friend's daughter, she's out for fun."
As he said this, he winked at Fu Fu.
Fu Fu quickly took out the letter of introduction given by the mustache-faced president and handed it to the captain.
The captain took the letter, unfolded it, glanced at it, and threw it aside. His expression became serious again, "You are this guy's junior. If you are just visiting, you don't need the president to write a letter. You can read it at will.
But entering the sea of sand is not something you can do casually. If something unexpected happens, someone could die."
Fu Fu nodded quickly and replied seriously: "I know the rules of the fishing fleet. Uncle Prince Harpoon told me all of them!
Don't look at me like this, I am actually an apprentice hunter, I will definitely pass the test!"
Second Prince: “?”
Uncle Harpoon Prince? What kind of new name is this?
The captain also raised his eyebrows, "Hunter? A hunter so young?"
"It's an apprentice hunter!" Fu Fu corrected emphatically.
Although in reality he can only be considered a student.
The second prince also spoke up for her, "Feng Ying, you remember, the one who came with me last time, Fu Fu is her disciple."
"Oh, of course I remember!" Speaking of Feng Ying's name, the captain actually seemed a little excited, "We thought we were doomed when we encountered such a big horned dragon, but she solved it easily.
Later I heard from others that she was a super famous hunter, right? And you are actually her disciple, so you must be good!
But the basic test cannot be omitted. I don’t ask you to help with fishing, but at least you have to be able to stand firmly on the sand boat!"
Fu Fu nodded quickly again. She was quite confident in her sense of balance.
Seeing Fu Fu's confidence, the captain stopped talking nonsense and said, "Look around first. I'll arrange a small sand boat for you later. You can take it to the nearby sand sea to adapt to the weather.
Let someone tell you some things you must pay attention to on the sandy sea, remember them all, I will ask you later."
"no problem!"
After arranging things here, the captain returned to his original preparations. There were still many things that required him to worry about, and even Uncle Harpoon Prince was taken away by him.
Fu Fu took Yu Pai with her and toured the fishing fleet's dock.
Since it is not the monsoon season, the sandfish schools are not dense, and the size of this fishing fleet is not large.
There is only one large main fishing boat, named "Shalongwan", and the rest are small sand boats about six or seven meters long, which are convenient for hunting lone sand fish.
The specific hunting method is also very direct. The harpooner pierces or throws the harpoon into the body of the sand fish, then retrieves it through the rope connected to the end of the harpoon, and finally sends it back to the cold storage of the "Shalongwan" for preservation.
It sounds easy, but it is not easy to hit the sand fish whose color almost blends into the sand sea on a violently bumpy sand boat against the dust.
The ability of the harpooners is also the key to whether or not one can return with a full load.
Fu Fu is actually very confident about this.
Although she had never fished before, let alone used a harpoon, the arrows used by bow hunters were not much different from harpoons in terms of weight and size.
The training of archers includes close combat with arrows, and occasionally throwing arrows with bare hands, so she adapted quickly.
After one or two days of special training on the ship, she basically mastered the use of the harpoon.
She really wanted to get a few harpoons to practice more, but unfortunately, harpoons were the treasures of the harpooners and their livelihood. They needed to be polished and maintained from time to time, and they would not lend them to her, a little kid, to "play around" with.
After asking around without any results, Fu Fu squatted among a pile of boxes and sighed. She could only go and ask Uncle Harpoon Prince later to see if he could give her two.
As she was struggling, Fu Fu suddenly realized that someone seemed to be staring at her.
I turned my head and looked in the direction of that feeling.
Sure enough, on the bow of the Sand Dragon Maru, a mysterious-looking Elu wearing a robe, a hat and a veil on her head was looking down at him.
Fu Fu walked over with some curiosity.
"Hello?" she greeted tentatively.
The Elu did not respond immediately. The bright cat eyes behind the veil stared at her for a long time without blinking before finally speaking.
"You are, Fufu-nyan?"
As he spoke, the Elu's eyes fell on the Fish Chop next to Fu Fu, "So, the one over here is Fish Chop Meow?"
Without giving the man and the cat a chance to ask questions, the mysterious Elu jumped off the bow and landed lightly on the sand in front of them.
"I haven't seen you for a few years. You've changed a lot, meow." The Elu came to Fu Fu and patted her thigh, looking pleased and emotional to see the younger generation grow up.
Staring at the cat's paw with shiny silver fur, Yupai was the first to react, "You are Aunt Xianglan, meow?"
"Don't call me auntie! You have to call me Lady Xianglan, meow!" Xianglan, who was wrapped tightly, put her hands on her hips.
Fu Fu and Yu Pa looked at each other and spoke with dry laughs.
"Lord Xianglan, long time no see"
".Xianglan-sama, meow."
"I'm just kidding, meow. Just call me Ou Xianglan, meow."
Xianglan patted Fufu's thigh again, then looked at Yupai and emphasized, "But Yupai still has to call me Xianglan-sama meow, or I'll beat you meow!"
Fish steak: “.”
Fu Fu squatted down happily.
Xianglan was Aunt Hayata’s hunting partner, so of course she knew him, but she might not be as familiar with him as Sandstone, otherwise she would have been able to recognize him even if he was wrapped up like that.
Yu Pai quietly took half a step back, looking a little timid, as if he didn't have a very good impression of this "auntie".
Noticing this, Xianglan suddenly moved closer, opened her paws and hugged Yupai's head, rubbed it hard a few times, and then pushed it away, leaving Yupai confused.
"By the way, why is Xianglan dressed like this? Isn't it hot?"
Fu Fu smiled and stretched out her hand, trying to lift Xianglan's hat and veil, but the latter slapped her hand away with her paw.
"Don't move. I'm dressed like this because I have ringworm, meow."
Fish steak: “??!!!”
