Guo Yuxi had already angrily said that Erhu was obsessed with his wife and had forgotten all about their brotherhood for a girl! From now on, none of us should talk to him!

Li Xiangdong felt that although Guo Yuxi's words were harsh, they were indeed reasonable!

Shouldn't I have sent the rapist to the police station? How can Wang Erhu, at such a young age, be so unable to distinguish right from wrong? He's really siding with his own people instead of those who are reasonable. There's no need to get to know this kind of person better.

From now on, just treat them like ordinary villagers.

Several people walked to the side of the small ditch where the three rivers branched off, and used flashlights to look in the mud and shallow water to see if there were any eels or loaches.

"Second Brother, are you sure you don't need bait?"

"You're just using an empty hook; it's a waste of your time!"

"We might as well go watch Uncle pull the net!"

The one who said this was Li Xiangjie, who called Li Jin "Uncle".

Li Xiangdong ignored them, his eyes fixed on a small hole, where it seemed an eel had just poked its head out.

Li Xiangdong moved the hook quickly and slightly at the entrance of the hole, and sure enough, the eel stuck its head out!

However, the eel was very alert, and he missed hooking it on the first try. Undeterred, Li Xiangdong repeated the hooking motion.

The second attempt still failed to hook it!

On the third pull, just as the eel poked its head out, Li Xiangdong lifted it up with the hook, and a thick, long eel was pulled out!

Li Xiangdong used one hand to stroke from head to bottom, and with the other hand, he pinched the head to remove the hook and threw it directly into the basket!

Wow, it really works!

"This eel is huge, it must weigh about a pound and a half!"

"Second brother, teach me, teach me! I want to learn too!"

"Why is that? You can catch fish with an empty hook! It's like Jiang Taigong fishing – those who are willing will take the bait!"

"Hahaha! Eels don't have very good eyesight. When the hook moves, it thinks it's food moving, so it bites the hook!"

After Li Xiangdong finished explaining, he handed the hook to Guo Yuxi and asked him to try it.

The group of people laughed and joked until midnight, catching a total of 90 jin of eels, 60 jin of loaches, a lot of thumb-sized river shrimp, and two small turtles!
