Chapter 2644 I have the final say
Of course you can't catch any fish in this clear, fast-flowing, and cold water. There might only be some tiny, sharp fish hiding in the cracks of the rocks. Bai Shan and the others were just catching those little fish for fun.
A group of young people sat in a row on the grass, watching the fishing bait floating with the waves, and then turned their heads to look at the emperor and the adults sitting on the small stools above. They were all concentrating on holding the fishing rods and looking ahead.
Chang Yu was getting a little restless. He moved his fishing rod back and forth and asked Wei Yu in a low voice, "Do you think we can catch any fish in that big hole in the pond next to our father?"
Wei Yu only took a glance and said, "At least he's better than us."
Their fishing lines are still drifting with the current.
Bai Shan quietly stood up with the fishing rod, pulled Manbao, and the two of them quietly stood up and walked downstream.
Seeing this, Yin Huo also stood up with his fishing rod and fished it out without caring whether it would get caught on a rock.
When Bai Erlang saw this, he immediately pulled Mingda along and prepared to follow.
Mingda pulled him back, shushed him, and said, "A moment."
After a while, the two of them left quietly.
Chang Yu's eyes were filled with tears. She wanted to follow them, but she looked at the emperor above with some worry. She was a little hesitant.
Wei Yu didn't dare either.
The two honest people squatted alone on the grass for a long time. Finally, Mingda couldn't bear it anymore, so he quietly came back and pulled his sister down with him.
The emperor saw this from the corner of his eye, shook his head slightly, and said to Wei Zhidao: "My Chang Yu is a coward, why is your Wei Yu also so cowardly?"
Wei Zhi smiled slightly and said, "Isn't this just right? An honest man matches an honest man. Your Majesty has excellent taste."
Bai Shan and the others hid a little further away. Without the big guys watching them, they felt much more at ease. Knowing that there was a high probability that they would not catch any fish, they put their fishing rods on the shore, found a stone to press them down, and went to play.
Chang Yu said, "You are really brave. Father and the elders are still here."
Mingda said, "Father won't mind."
She imitated Bai Erlang and picked up a stone and threw it into the water, then asked curiously, "How did you make the splash?"
Bai Erlang taught her step by step, "This way it's lower..."
Manbao lifted her skirt and went to the side to pull out a lot of long grass and branches. After a while, she gathered a bunch of them and threw them in front of Baishan, looking at him happily, "You come and weave the fish basket."
All three of them could weave simple fish baskets, but none of them were as sturdy as Bai Shan’s. In fact, Daji’s was the best.
Bai Erlang said, "It would be great if Daji was here."
Bai Shan said angrily: "Do you think everyone is like you, doing nothing all day? Daji has a lot of things to do in the yard."
Bai Shan carefully began to weave the plait, while Yin Huo sat aside and watched curiously, "You can do this too?"
Manbao said proudly: "My second brother taught me, I can do it too, but I'm not as good as him."
Wei Yu couldn't help but ask, "Why are you learning this?"
"Fishing," Manbao said, "There's a river in our village. Every year in late autumn and early winter, the water in the river is very low, so we can go fishing then."
"But this kind of fish basket doesn't catch many fish. We have a fishing net at home. We can just stretch it out and move it upwards a little bit, and we can catch a lot of fish."
Bai Erlang said, "They catch the most fish every year. Even if I ask my servants to go fishing with me, we still can't catch as much as they do."
Manbao said proudly, "Of course, my brothers are all good at fishing."
Chang Yu: "But there are no fish in this river. Didn't you say there were no fish?"
Mingda pulled her and said with a smile, "It will be there in a while."
It will be there in a moment.
After a while, they saw a huge fish jumping and rolling down the stream, its tail swinging.
Chang Yu was stunned, Wei Yu was also stunned, but everyone else's eyes lit up. Man Bao stepped on each other's feet and took off her shoes. She picked up her skirt and was about to go into the water, but was grabbed by Bai Shan, "You are not in good health, don't catch a cold, I will go."
The water is very cold.
Bai Shan took off his shoes and socks, tucked his robe up, and went into the water with the fish basket. Bai Erlang followed him excitedly.
Wei Yu was also eager to try, so he secretly glanced up and saw that they were far enough away and there were trees blocking the view, so they could not see each other clearly. So he took off his shoes and socks and went into the river.
This is a small stream flowing downwards. It is not deep and there are mostly stones and sand at the bottom, with very little soil.
So it's not dirty to step in.
The big fish that was flowing down the river was stuck behind a big rock and was gathering strength in the water to jump out.
Bai Shan stood there without moving, intending to wait for it to come down before catching it, but Bai Erlang couldn't wait, so he walked over carefully and saw it struggling in the water behind a big rock. He reached out and grabbed it, and the slippery big fish was in his hand in an instant.
He couldn't help but shouting excitedly, "I caught it——"
The emperor, who was luring the fish trapped in a big water hole above, stood up and looked down when he heard this. The stream was winding downwards and was blocked by several trees between them.
But the emperor still saw Bai Erlang standing in the river.
Bai Erlang laughed wildly, and Manbao couldn't bear it, so Yin Huo bent down and picked up a stone for her.
Manbao took it, aimed at the water hole next to him and threw it over. Water splashed and hit him in the face. He couldn't help but close his eyes, and his hand movements were not so standard. So the fish jumped out of his hand with its tail swung, and fell directly into the stream, wagging its tail and splashing downstream...
Manbao pointed at it and shouted, "Bai Shan, catch it, catch it, catch it quickly..."
Its swimming traces were not affected by Zhou Man, so it crashed into Wei Yu's arms. However, it was the first time for Wei Yu to catch a fish, so he was not very skilled. After he caught it, the fish slipped out of his palm. Then it slipped away between his legs, and in the eyes of everyone, it shook its beautiful tail and disappeared along the water flow.
Chang Yu couldn't help but scream "Ahhh..." and shouted, "Wei Yu, how could you be so stupid? You caught it and let it run away."
Wei Yu: "It's too slippery..."
Bai Shan taught him, "Once you catch it, throw it to the shore. Don't worry, there will definitely be more."
"Yes, they're coming down, they're coming down, two more!"
"Hurry, hurry, catch it!"
The three women of Mingda immediately ran to the water's edge and stared at them excitedly. Even Yin Huo stood by the water, wishing he could go down himself, but Changshou kept holding his sleeve tightly to prevent him from going down.
Yin Huo also knew his own body and was just moved.
Bai Erlang stood at the top and caught one first. This time, he didn't get complacent. He just held on to it, took two steps, and just as it was about to slip away, he threw it to the shore...
"Wow, I got it, I got it..."
"Bai Shan also caught one. Oh my god, another one has come down..."
The emperors and their followers who still found nothing: ...
See you tomorrow
I was discharged from the hospital today, so I should be able to start adding more chapters tomorrow if I work hard.
