Chapter 217



No one expected Huilin's unexpected appearance.

Except for the one who had been replaced to drive the boat and gave me a bowl of rice, everyone else gathered at the stern and surrounded Gray Scale sitting on the paper pig.

Four straight eyes, no matter how thick-skinned Huilin was, he felt a little embarrassed at this moment. He suddenly felt very uncomfortable, and frantically recalled the growth of his hair. It shouldn't make people feel a little bald, right?

It was a death stare.

"Grey Scale, why are you here too? Did you come here on your pig?" Bai Li asked curiously.

When the wild boar was flattened, it was like a flying carpet, rising and falling steadily with the waves of the sea. Moreover, this was a "blanket" that would never leak. As long as Gray Scale wanted, he could lie on it and take a nap. Anyway, the area was large enough.

Huilin answered honestly: "Yes, Lili, I just rode my Tietou here. Well, I was curious about what the sea is like, so I secretly followed you here so that I could take care of you on the way, hehe!"

After saying that, he gave a bright silly smile.

"But..." Jiang Huaibi lowered his head and checked the instructions of the fishing boat. "This boat can only accommodate five people at most. If there is one more, it will capsize. You..."

She was too embarrassed to say directly that Gray Scale couldn't get on the ship. How could she be taken care of if he couldn't get on the ship?

But Huilin had already investigated everything. It was obvious that he had made a detailed plan. He even found out that only five people could be on the boat. Hearing this, he waved his hand and said cheerfully, "It's okay. I didn't plan to come up. Can I just stay beside your boat? Just treat me as... just treat me as an extra staff member? I have my Iron Head and a lot of food and drinks in my backpack. I won't have to worry about not being able to survive on the sea."

Since he had said so, how could the people on the boat refuse him to follow them? They acquiesced. Even the fishing team of Bai Li and Wen Xingyao changed their fishing position to the stern of the boat, and after throwing the hook randomly, they started chatting with Hui Lin.

The audience in the live broadcast room, especially the players who were originally villagers of "Mushroom Village", were immediately jealous. They slapped their thighs and said with great sorrow that if they had known that this operation existed, they would have gone to Huilin and asked him to take a place on the pig list.

What’s the worry if you can’t get on the boat? There’s a pig that can swim!

Halfway through the journey, the boat was driven by another person. Jiang Huaibi stood at the bow, holding the steering wheel, and posed in several ways. She asked the audience to take screenshots for her and send them to her when the time comes, as she wanted to keep them as a souvenir.

So far, the boat has been on the road for more than an hour, and along the way, let alone pirates, there has not been any islands. Jiang Huaibi thought about it, changed the direction of the boat and continued to sail, then turned back to ask the others: "Should we cast a net first to see if there are any big fish in the water? Otherwise, it would be too boring to keep sailing forward."

This proposal was agreed by everyone. Gray Scale even stood up and jumped on the pig: "Okay, okay, I'm close to the water surface, I can help you observe which direction the fish are swimming!"

What are you doing? You clapped your hands and laughed: "That's great. If a big fish really comes online, you will be our great hero."

Bai Li held the high-grade fishing net in one hand and the super fishing net in the other, and asked everyone which one they wanted to use.

"Why don't we use the high-end fishing nets first? There are few super fishing nets, and they are not suitable for random use without any experience. Once we have caught more nets and get a feel for it, it won't be too late to use them." Wen Xingyao said.

The others nodded in agreement.

"Okay, then let's use the advanced fishing net first." Bai Li took back the super fishing net, and then with the help of Wen Xingyao, Give Me a Bowl of Rice, What Are You Doing, and the gray scales below, he completed the work of spreading the fishing net.

The boat had already stopped. Jiang Huaibi held up the camera and leaned over the railing to peek. After all the fishing nets were in the water, he turned around and asked blankly, "Is this all? Is there anything else we need to do?"

I always feel that they are a bunch of novices. If it is just like this, there will only be a few fish in the fishing net in the end, or even no fish at all.

As a "human plug-in", Bai Li directly suggested: "You can sprinkle some bait near the fishing net to attract the surrounding fish, or drive the boat slowly forward."

Everyone's eyes lit up when they got the hint. Now that they had a method, they could get started.

Jiang Huaibi said: "I will go and spread the bait, and then continue to drive the boat!"

"Let me come too. I have a lot of baits here too. Let me scatter some out!" Gray Scale had already started taking out the baits from his backpack.

The largest number was ordinary baits, followed by high-level baits. There were even a few large, round, golden super baits mixed in there. One could tell at a glance that they were thrown by Wen Xingyao.

The audience in the live broadcast room were paying attention to the first sea fishing trip of the sea-going team.

"Li Li and his friends finally gave up their fishing rods that never caught any fish and switched to using fishing nets. I hope they'll have a big catch. A good start~~"

"While they were casting their nets, I went to the Star Internet to check what fish there are in the sea and which fish tastes better. Brothers, my mouth is watering. I hope Li Li and Sister Huai Bi can help. I'm greedy!"

"High-end fishing nets, high-end bait, super bait, wow, this is considered a huge investment in fishing. I want to see how the abundant seafood is obtained."

"We should be able to see it soon. This is a game. We won't have to wait for hours like in real life, right?"

There was indeed no need to wait that long. After Jiang Huaibi slowly started the boat, the huge fishing net was dragged at the stern. Huilin was on the right side of the boat, controlling the wild boar Tietou to swim forward. After about half an hour, Bai Li said that the net could be pulled up.

"You go and have a rest over there, I'll set up the net." Wen Xingyao pushed Bai Li to sit on a small bench nearby and stuffed a can of popcorn into his hand.

Jiang Huaibi was treated the same as Bai Li. The reason why she was not allowed to go forward was simply because people thought she was weak and could not help much.

Bai Li: “…”

Jiang Huaibi: “…”

The two of them stared at each other.

After several seconds, Bai Li handed the popcorn can forward and said, "Huai Bi, do you want to have some snacks together?"

Jiang Huaibi made a crying expression, but stretched out his hand honestly: "Yes!"

So the two of them happily hid in the corner, eating while cheering for the busy people, and doing live commentary in the live broadcast room.

The tools made by Give Me a Bowl of Rice came in handy at this time. With them, the process of pulling up the fishing net for the four of them became much easier. Without much effort, the things wrapped in the fishing net began to show a little bit.

What meets the eye is a glittering silver light. The hairtail fish in the net are entangled with each other, crowded together. Because of the pressure, they are already exhaling more than taking in air. When they are still alive, the scales on the hairtail fish are as dazzling as silver, and as soft as ribbons woven by moonlight. However, once they die, this luster will quickly fade and become dim.

The audience was shocked at first by the beauty of the hairtail just out of the water, but soon they learned about the deliciousness of braised hairtail, pan-fried hairtail, sweet and sour hairtail, and pepper and salt hairtail. Tears of loss of life flowed from their mouths, and they frantically posted comments and loudly said "well done" to the people in the game!

This can be said to be a very successful fishing trip. Most of the fish in the net are hairtails, and a small part are crabs, each of which is as big as a face plate. Because no one noticed the crabs in the net at the beginning, when the hairtails were put into the fish hold, these very energetic crabs happily jumped out of the cage.

By the time Bai Li and his companions discovered them, they had already crawled all over the deck, causing them a huge headache.

The audience in the live broadcast room don’t feel sorry for them, they only feel sorry for the crabs.

"Sister Huaibi, pay attention! There is a big crab hidden under the rope at the bow. Be careful when catching it. Don't knock off its claws, otherwise it will affect the taste when you eat it!"

“Ahhh! There are a few crabs over there on the tool pile. The axe looks like it’s going to fall over. Hurry over and someone should hold it up. Don’t let it hit those big crabs. The dead crab meat will stick together!”

"Wow! This crab crawls so fast. I declare it the champion of this jailbreak. I wonder if the meat on its claws will be chewier and more elastic after getting enough exercise before being put into the pot?"

"I counted them and there are only 36 crabs in total. There are six of you, so why not just cook them all in one pot? Eat them slowly so that we can have a taste too? Slurp slurp.jpg"

36 crabs were not a lot, so the men searched the deck carefully and caught them all.

Jiang Huaibi finally had time to watch his live broadcast room, and just happened to see the barrage of comments from the audience asking them to cook all the crabs and eat them together. After reading it out, he asked everyone what they thought. When it comes to eating, everyone's ideas are unprecedentedly consistent, so just eat it, and save it for the New Year, what's wrong?

It just so happened that it took a lot of effort to catch them, so I took the opportunity to replenish my strength.

Eating crabs alone is not enough. Wen Xingyao, who has learned cooking skills, and Ni Zhegan went to the fish hold and selected a few big and fat hairtails, preparing to arrange the four ways of eating hairtails that the audience had discussed before.

Audience: What a great guy this is, I love him!

As a black hole in culinary skills, Bai Li took over the job of driving the boat and controlled the fishing boat to slowly move in a certain direction.

At this time, Huilin felt somewhat miserable. Not only could he not help, but he could only wait for food with his head held high. How embarrassing. So he asked Tietou to swim forward and prepared to run to the bow to chat with Baili.

But at this moment, he felt something pushing up on the seat where he was sitting. Tietou also made an uncomfortable "groan" sound. Out of curiosity, he stuck his head to look into the water and his face turned pale.

“Li, Li Li! There’s something in the water. I took a look and it looks like a giant octopus, a tentacle monster!!”

As Gray Scale's stuttering words fell, a bright red tentacle with dense suction cups emerged from the water and lashed the fishing boat hard.
