With money in hand, carrying the two fish, he returned home in high spirits.
But just as he got home and had moved the fish box into the kitchen, he saw the Earth Dragon inside the smaller fish box.
Only then did he remember he still had an Earth Dragon.
This... which one should we eat tonight?
As for the mud snails, he had cleaned them the night before and pickled them, and they were ready to eat today.
Chu Mingcheng opened the small fish box and found that the oxygen pump had stopped working due to a dead battery.
He picked up the Earth Dragon to check it, and it was still squirming, showing it was still quite lively.
"Ah, you're almost gone, I bet you won't make it till tomorrow, so let's deal with you tonight!"
He looked at the fish and then at the Earth Dragon, but in the end, he felt the Earth Dragon "wouldn't live long," so he decided on the evening's dish.
