Chapter 3 Crabs

The sky in front of me was surprisingly clear, with no trace of clouds in the blue sky, and it was connected to the blue sea from afar, which really made Lin Tianyu understand what sea and sky are connected.

The sound of seagulls crowing in the sky made him feel more and more pleasant.

He took off his useless raincoat, pressed the door with a piece of wood removed from a crate, and walked down a not-so-steep hillside.

He used an engineer shovel to split the messy shrubs. The rainwater that had not yet evaporated on the shrubs touched his whole body, and his trouser legs were wet with dewdrops on the weeds, but these could not interfere with Lin Tianyu's good mood. He walked all the way to the beach by the sea, looked at the endless sea and suddenly let out a loud roar - ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Without echoes, the infinite space seemed to accommodate everything, making Lin Tianyu, who was used to seeing the city's cement jungle, feel extremely fresh.

He took a deep breath of the air with a fresh and damp smell, as if he had relaxed. Looking at the sea in front of him, his excitement could not calm down for a long time.

Lin Tianyu didn't stay for too long, and he still couldn't confirm that there were no other dangers on the island. He used engineer shovels as hiking poles and patrolled around the island. The area of ​​the island was not large, only about three or four acres of land. He soon walked around, and there was nothing particularly noteworthy about it. There were neither architectural relics nor any traces left by wild beasts. He turned around and returned to the beach before, sitting on a very smooth stone that was almost washed by the sea.

He did not continue to think about what all this was going on, but was thinking about what he could get from this matter and how to use his discovery to change his life. He was thinking, a rustling sound attracted his attention. He looked in the direction where the sound came, but found that there were several large crabs crawling in a tidal state on the beach where the tide was receding.

Although S City is not an inland city, it is indeed not close to the sea. Therefore, although there are seafood for sale in the restaurant, most of them are frozen foods and cannot be said to be fresh. Lin Tianyu only ate sea crabs a few times when he was very young, and he doesn't remember much about their taste. However, river crabs were often eaten before, but prices have soared in the past two years and there are rumors about hormone river crabs. Therefore, he has not eaten fresh river crabs for a long time.

The crabs on the beach were extremely large in size, the smallest ones were the size of a palm, and the largest one could have a diameter of more than 20 cm with the back shell. If the crab legs were included, it was half a meter long. The color of the back shell was red, and it was covered with sharp thorny protrusions, which looked a bit weird and ugly. But in the eyes of gourmets, this was definitely not a problem. Lin Tianyu took off his shoes and socks, stepped on the beach with barefoots, and walked towards the crabs step by step. The crabs didn't know that the disaster was coming, and they crawled around foolishly, without any intention of being afraid of people.

It took almost no effort to catch these crabs, except to be careful of their huge crab claws. Lin Tianyu caught two of them and found that he did not bring a suitable container. He hurriedly climbed up the hill and ran down with a canvas bag.

In a short while, he put half a bag of crabs, but after hesitating for a while, Lin Tianyu poured out most of them, leaving only three of the largest ones.

It is better not to waste too much effort before you figure out whether this thing can be eaten. Anyway, this island cannot be escaped here.

While thinking, Lin Tianyu ended this adventure and returned home along the same route.

After locking the wooden door, Lin Tianyu searched the Internet for what kind of crabs he caught. He searched one by one according to the pictures of crabs provided on Baidu, and finally found the answer he wanted.

Mediterranean thorn crab, also known as jingle crab, - an edible spider crab. Italians call it tellmekis, which means "long thorn bread". It is probably because of its ugly appearance. However, according to Baidu's introduction, this crab tastes quite delicious. It can be sold for two or three hundred yuan in fresh aquatic stores in China, and even frozen crabs can be sold for one or two hundred yuan.

So, is this island located in the Mediterranean? I just don’t know how to explain all this?

Lin Tianyu still didn't understand, but he had already confirmed one thing, that is, these crabs are edible and very delicious.

The cooking method of sea crabs is very simple. Just steam them directly, because living in the sea water is delicious enough, and MSG and salt can be omitted. It was almost noon that Lin Tianyu was a little hungry. These three crabs seemed particularly attractive at this time. He turned the pot out of the pile of luggage in a row, and then he was depressed to find that his pot seemed to be a little smaller, because it was only used to cook instant noodles or instant noodles on weekdays, so the diameter of the pot was only about twenty centimeters, and there was no matching cage.

Lin Tianyu smiled bitterly, and he didn't expect that it would be so hard to steam a crab himself.

He thought about it and said that if he went to buy a pot, it would take at least one hour to go back and forth, which would have been a bit too long. After hesitating for a moment, he remembered the girl who took him to see the house.

The girl was actually the landlord's daughter, and she lived not far from here. Speaking of which, she still owed her a sofa. Maybe she could borrow a pot to use it and ask for information about Crov.

Wait! Lin Tianyu suddenly seemed to have caught something in his mind.

Since this door was ordered by the unlucky man named Crov, it was obvious that he should know the secret. Since he was bizarrely killed in his room, the doors and windows were all locked from centimeters, and there was no clue of the murderer, it was very likely that there were other doors in his hand. The reason why he died was actually because of the world that a certain door led to.

The more Lin Tianyu thought about it, the more he felt it made sense. He couldn't help but think in his heart that if he could find more doors, he might be able to figure out what this kind of time and space gate is. And compared to the remote island, perhaps the world that can be led to behind another door is just worth exploring, but it may not be certain.

Of course, this is not the only clue. He looked at the price tag on the key. Since the door was bought from somewhere and mailed, it means that there must be a factory-like place that produces this door.

He hesitated for a moment and decided to investigate Crove's legacy first. After all, it is not wise to investigate the organization behind the manufacturing of this door before finding out the situation. God knows who they are. When they find out that they have opened the secret behind the door, what will they do? The organization that can create such a door will definitely not be ordinary people. Maybe they will lose their lives by accident.
