Dan thought for a moment and let go of the female crab and the little crabs. He still had to pay attention to protecting the ecosystem and supporting its sustainable development.

[Those little crabs are so cute!]

[The little crabs are obediently lying on Mommy’s back. They’re so cute.]

[I’m dying of laughter. The crab said: I’m taking care of a child and disaster comes from the sky.]

[The crab said: Ah, don’t come over!]

[Crab: I was so scared! I was trembling.]

Although the mountain crabs were not big, there were finally meat dishes for lunch today.

The noon sun shone on the stream, and the clear stream shimmered.

When the position of the sun showed that it was already noon, Dan and Shane had also caught many crabs.

The mountain crabs struggled in the net. Dan shook the net gently, and the crabs inside began to wave their pincers.

Dan and Shane carried the crabs back and prepared to meet up with Sharon and the others.

Sharon and the others had already washed the mushrooms they had picked.

They were waiting for Dan and Shane to return so they could start a fire and cook the mushrooms.

When Melinda saw that not only had Dan and Shane returned with mushrooms, but they were also holding crabs in their hands, she said excitedly, “You guys are too awesome. You actually caught crabs.”

“These crab’s pincers and stomachs are actually purple. Their looks are too good. They’re too cute.” Sharon poked the crab with the tip of her finger. The small mountain crab instinctively dodged and waved its small crab pincers.

“This kind of mountain crab tastes very fresh. Where I come from, I always fry it and eat it. It’s especially fragrant after it’s fried and crispy,” Dan said vividly.

“Hey, stop talking. I’m about to drool,” said Melissa as she swallowed her saliva.

Shane had already started the fire. “Let’s boil the mushrooms first before cooking the crabs.”

“Alright, the mushrooms have been washed. Let’s cook the mushrooms first. We can add the fruits of the salt-skinned tree to season them. Although they might be a little sour, they still have a salty taste.” Sharon picked some fruits to prepare the food.

“After that crab is cooked, we should roast it over the fire before eating.

Otherwise, there might be many parasites.” Dan used a branch to stir the pile of woof, wanting to make the fire bigger.

“Alright, let’s cook it before roasting it then. This way, it’ll be double insurance,” Sharon said.

In the can containing mushrooms, the water was already bubbling. The water was boiling, and the mushrooms were cooked.

After everyone tasted it, they felt that it was very delicious.

“I want to eat my grandmother’s chicken stewed with mushrooms,” Dan said as he blew at the boiled mushroom that was still a little hot.

Shane roasted the cooked crab on the stone slab. The crab turned orange-red, and it looked very appetizing.

“I want to eat hairy crabs,” Shane said.

“I want to eat it too,” Melinda said as she wiped her mouth.

The crab was roasted very quickly. It was crispy and delicious. The crab itself had a salty taste. It was different from the sour and salty taste of salted skin wood. It was salty and fresh. There were limited supplies here, so everyone felt that it was better than any seafood river freshness they had eaten outside.

“In my hometown, we have a dish called the Spring Crab. Because this mountain crab is relatively small and has less meat, we mainly eat its shell.” Dan enthusiastically talked about the delicacies of his hometown.

“We crush the fried crabs and mix them with coriander, cilantro, garlic, and millet spicy food. Then, we add salt and the crabs are ready. After that, we mix lemon juice, coriander, millet, spicy food, garlic, and salt to create the sauce,” Dan continued.

“Stop talking. I’m going to cry from craving it.” Melinda chewed on the crispy crab. She originally thought it was especially delicious, but when she heard Dan’s words, she started drooling crazily again.

“Stop talking. I’m going to cry from craving it.” Melinda chewed on the crispy crab. She originally thought it was especially delicious, but when she heard Dan’s words, she started drooling crazily again.

Dan chewed on the roasted crab and continued to recommend the delicacies of his hometown. “Then, we also roll fried fish, rice noodles, carrots, cucumbers, peanuts, and crabs into vegetables and we get vegetable-wrapped fish. The taste is superb.”

“When we get out, invite us to your hometown. We’ll eat all the delicious food you crave for,” Sharon teased as she chewed on the fresh and crispy crab.

“No problem. Spring crabs, vegetable-wrapped fish, bamboo rice, and many others. There will be a lot of these dishes when the time comes,” Dan said with a smile.

Melissa wiped her mouth and looked like she hadn’t had enough. When she heard Dan’s vivid explanation, she felt like she was about to drool.

“When we get out, I’ll invite you to my house to make pot-cooked meat, stewed in an iron pot, and minced meat.” Melinda also brought up the delicacies in her hometown..
