Unfortunately, the hare seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. No matter how hard he tried, it just didn't show up.
Song Yun said, "Maybe it's gone back to its rabbit hole. Forget it. We've already caught two pheasants today, which is quite a harvest."
The old man had no choice but to give up, thinking that he must catch a rabbit next time and have a good meal of spicy rabbit meat.
The two of them walked through the mountains and forests, stopping from time to time to dig a few herbs. After walking for another hour, they actually found a mountain stream in the deep forest. The stream was gurgling and clear, and you could see the bottom. No one knew where the stream came from.
"Yun girl, come here quickly, there are fish here." The old man suddenly shouted at a deep puddle more than ten meters away.
Song Yun walked over quickly and saw the old man had already taken off his shoes and was ready to go into the water to catch fish.
Song Yun stopped him, "The water is too cold, don't go in."
The old man pointed at a few fish in the deep water and said, "These fish weigh at least two or three pounds each. They are spring water fish, so fresh. Don't waste it."
Song Yun took out the stone and said, "Who said no?"
The old man opened his eyes wide, "You can fight in the water?"
"You'll know if you try it." She shook her wrist, and the three stones in her hand flew out at the same time, hitting three fish respectively.
The three fish were hit on the head and immediately turned over.
The old man was so happy that he ran to the puddle and fished out the three fish without getting his feet wet.
While the old man was looking for the thatched fish, Song Yun quietly used her watch to scan the fish still swimming in the water. She successfully scanned two, two different types of fish. She earned 180 star coins from these two fish.
She glanced at her balance, which currently stood at 4,220 star coins.
Today's harvest was good and she was satisfied.
If she has the chance to come alone next time, the harvest will definitely be greater. There are many plants that meet the trading standards along the way. Unfortunately, the old man is around, so it is not convenient for her to make any small movements.
At this time, the old man had found some thatch suitable for stringing the fish together. He ran over excitedly and strung the three fish together.
"Don't underestimate this fish, it's only a little over two pounds. The meat is much more delicious than other fish." After skewering the fish, he stretched his neck to look into the puddle. "Hey, weren't there several fish just now? Where did they go? Why are there no fish left?"
Song Yun felt a little guilty. Apart from the two fish she traded with Qian Tong, she put the remaining two into Qian Tong's storage compartment.
"Maybe it ran away because of the noise we made while fishing just now, so I didn't notice it," said Song Yun.
The old man looked regretful and said, "Alright, three is not too few."
The two of them strolled along the stream for a long time, but they didn't see any fish bigger than their palms, so they didn't try to catch them again.
Song Yun found a clump of herbs upstream of the mountain stream. After the two of them dug up the herbs, the backpack was no longer able to hold them, so they twisted some thatch into a rope and tied it up.
The old man wiped his sweat and said, "It's almost time, let's go back."
It is now two o'clock in the afternoon. It will take a long time to get out of the mountains and then go back to the platform where I got off before. I don't know if I can catch the last bus.
When I returned, I focused on the journey instead of looking around for herbs when I came. The time I spent was shortened by more than half. In addition, I made marks along the way and finally got out of Xiqin Mountain at 3:30.
When they returned to the stop where they got off in the morning, it was exactly 4:15, and there were still ten minutes before the last bus.
The old man breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but sigh, "Today feels particularly smooth. I haven't had such a smooth journey in the mountains before. I either encountered arrogant and tyrannical people or missed the bus because I didn't calculate the time well."
