This kind of fish is called "hydropower" in eastern Fujian. It is not all hard bones, but a pile of chubby meat. Its meat can be processed into Cai Min fish balls, or fried, fried, braised and slippery at will. Even the simplest boiled food has a unique flavor. It is safe to eat this kind of fish, and there is no danger of choking on fishbone. Even the faucet is soft and chewy.
Legend has it that its appearance is not beautiful, but it has a kind heart. Once, the giant fish asked the dragon king for bones to strengthen their bodies. The dragon king ordered hundreds of kinds of fish to donate one bone each. The "Shuiding" presented the only hard bone and instantly collapsed at the entrance of the Dragon Palace. When the Dragon King asked the reason, he realized that Shuiding had lost his bones, and he was really worried that he would be weak in the future. He said to the water tripod, "I'll give you a faucet." When other fish see it, they will be as respectful as I am and will not bully you. " "Shuiding" is today's face and is called "leading fish".
The dragon head fish and shrimp used to be neighbors. Shrimp often made sticks with knives, while the dragon head fish was full of poetry. One article and one martial art, the two usually get along well. One year, the Dragon King ordered that a scholar should be brought to the aquarium, and both mantis shrimp and the dragon head fish should take the exam. Mantis shrimp was wearing a chain mail and wielding a double knife. The dragon head fish was resourceful, and both of them won the top prize in civil and military arts.
The good news spread, and relatives and friends came to congratulate and celebrate. The impatient arowana got drunk and got sick with a cold. The Dragon King won't be able to get up until he is awarded the champion of civil and military arts, so he had to beg the shrimp to accept it for him, and the Dragon King agreed.
After the award, the squid was crowned as the champion of the martial arts, and he was very proud. He also wore the title of champion of literature, and praised it. He thought it would be more imposing if he could have the title of both civil and military. So he occupied the literary laurel and secretly moved away from the dragon head fish. A few days later, the dragon fish got up and went to the shrimp's home. He found the house empty. After asking, he knew that the shrimp had kidnapped Wen Guan. The dragon fish was very angry. He resented the shrimp for not keeping his promise. Since then, the shrimps have always been evasive when they meet the dragon head fish. Prawn, the dragon head fish, is disgusted. When it is seen, it opens its mouth and eats it raw.
