Chapter 30 I don't know you
That night, Lu Qing finally had a good sleep.
The next morning, after breakfast, he took Xiaoyan to the river to fish.
This time when he went fishing, he noticed that there were fewer people by the river, and there was no longer the scene of seven or eight people crowding into one fishing spot.
Yes, it's the busy farming season recently and there is still a lot of work to do in the fields. It's really impossible to go fishing every day.
Fishing is just a pastime after all. At most, it can only improve the food occasionally. It is not as important as the food in the fields, which is the lifeblood of farmers.
This time Lu Qing did not go to the strange fish fishing spot.
It's okay to catch strange fish occasionally.
If you catch a few fish every now and then, even a fool would know that something is wrong.
And even if he caught a rare fish now, he had no place to deal with it.
We can't always ask Dr. Chen to help us sell it.
As for eating, he was reluctant to eat it.
Ever since he knew the value of the strange fish, Lu Qing planned to use it as an important source of income.
So he planned to wait for a while, or until he had a certain ability to protect himself, before going fishing for exotic fish.
Lu Qing chose another white light fishing spot that he discovered when he first came to the river.
After repairing the fishing spot, Lu Qing started fishing.
Compared with the previous two fishing trips, this time was calm and uneventful.
After an hour, he caught half a bucket of fish.
The fish are big and small. The biggest one is a grass carp weighing two or three pounds, and the smallest one is still the little white fish.
After catching half a bucket of fish, Lu Qing started to put away his fishing rod.
These fish should be enough for the Night Cat to eat for several nights.
After bringing the Yu siblings back home, Lu Qing heard the familiar scratching sound on the door again after Xiaoyan fell asleep at night.
This time he did not panic. He took out the fish that had been prepared long ago from the kitchen and calmly opened the door.
When the door opened, I saw the little black beast standing in the middle of the yard.
But this time its mood was obviously much more stable.
Although there was still vigilance in his eyes, he didn't look as angry as he did last night.
"I've been waiting for you to come."
Lu Qing smiled and tried to sound as calm and friendly as possible.
Then he took out a wooden basin containing fish from behind him and slowly walked towards the yard.
When the black beast saw him coming out, it quickly took a few steps back and made a warning sound.
Lu Qing stopped immediately and said, "Don't be nervous, I don't mean any harm."
He placed the basin gently on the ground and slowly backed away.
When he retreated back into the house, the little black beast calmed down. Its nose twitched a few times, and it rushed to the wooden basin in a flash.
The next moment, it disappeared with the biggest fish in its mouth, and no one knew where it went to eat it.
Lu Qing was not surprised either. He waited quietly inside the door.
Sure enough, after a while, the little animal appeared in the yard again, picked up another fish and disappeared.
The little thing is quite alert.
Lu Qing smiled, but he was not interested in staring at a wild beast eating.
There are quite a few small fish in the bucket, and the little beast has to run back and forth to eat them. It’s unknown how long it will take, and he doesn’t want to keep waiting.
Lu Qing closed the door, returned to his room, and felt completely relaxed.
This time, the matter has been resolved perfectly.
Although he had to pay with some fish, for him who loves fishing, that little bit of fish was nothing.
Anyway, every time he went fishing, he would catch so much fish that he couldn't eat it all.
It’s not a bad thing to have this Night Spirit Raccoon to help consume some of the energy.
Just think of it like in the countryside in the past, when there are leftovers and bones at home that you can’t finish eating, you can raise a cat or a dog to use them up.
Feeling relaxed, Lu Qing slept well again that night.
The next morning, he got up early and went to the yard, and saw that the wooden basin was empty.
The fish weighing more than two kilograms was all eaten up. The little thing has a big appetite.
After washing the wooden basin and putting it away, Lu Qing began to prepare breakfast.
After Xiaoyan and I finished eating, we prepared to go to Dr. Chen.
Carrying more than a pound of freshly slaughtered fish, Lu Qing took Xiaoyan out.
Last time the old doctor said he liked to eat small fish. I happened to catch a lot of them yesterday, so I brought some with me.
Walking on the small path up the mountain, Lu Qing's face showed a hint of anticipation.
The old doctor went to the city yesterday and helped him sell the Red Moon Carp. I don’t know what the result was.
Although the old doctor said that the Red Moon Carp is a rare and unique fish with a high price and a limited market, there is no problem selling it.
But before he saw the silver, he was still a little nervous.
When they arrived at the courtyard halfway up the mountain, Lu Qing saw that Dr. Chen had just finished his morning exercise.
"Grandpa Chen!" Xiaoyan ran up.
"Xiaoyan, I haven't seen you for a day. Do you miss grandpa?"
The old doctor picked up the little guy.
"Yes~" Xiaoyan answered sweetly.
"Ha ha ha ha…"
"Hello, Grandpa Chen." Lu Qing also stepped forward to greet him.
"Well, you look pretty good today. Why, didn't the beast come to harass you guys again?"
In the old doctor's opinion, his powder has always been very effective. No matter what kind of wild beast it is, it will retreat once it smells it.
He gave Lu Qing such a big bag that even if tigers and leopards came, they would not be willing to get close.
I think a mere unknown wild beast would be no exception.
However, Lu Qing showed a hint of embarrassment at this time.
"Grandpa Chen, the powder doesn't seem to be very effective. The beast came to my house again these two nights."
"Oh, how could that be?" Doctor Chen was surprised.
"I don't know what's going on. It seems that the thing is not afraid of the medicine powder." Lu Qing answered truthfully.
"So how did you make it back off?"
The old doctor looked at Lu Qing's complexion again and was sure that he was not wrong. Lu Qing did not look like he had stayed up all night.
"I didn't use any special tricks. I found that guy seemed to be coming for my fish, so I threw some fish to it, and it left after eating it."
"Like to eat fish?" The old doctor pondered for a moment, "What does the beast look like? Did you see it clearly?"
"It's a small black beast, about two feet long, all black, but its four claws and neck are white. Grandpa Chen, do you know what kind of beast it is?"
"A two-foot-long black beast?" The old doctor thought for a while and shook his head. "I have traveled all over the country for so many years, but I have never seen a beast like this."
"You don't even know Grandpa Chen?" Lu Qing was a little surprised.
"You're right." The old doctor laughed. "This world is so vast, so boundless, and so many living things exist. Although I've traveled for decades, the places I've been to are only a small part of this vast world. Isn't it normal that there are living things I don't recognize?"
"Grandpa Chen is right." Lu Qing nodded.
Originally, he wanted to get more information about the Night Spirit Raccoon from the old doctor, but it seems that his plan is in vain.
"But from what you said, the little beast seems to be quite intelligent. Since it has no intention of attacking people and is just seeking a meal, there is no need to think about expelling it for the time being."
The old doctor is knowledgeable and knows that some creatures in this world are very special.
Judging from Lu Qing’s description, the little black beast was most likely the same.
"I thought so too. We can't finish all the fish at home anyway, so it wouldn't hurt to share some with it." Lu Qing said with a smile.
Even if he was asked to expel her, he wouldn't dare to do so.
That guy is awesome!
Xiaoyan listened for a long time and finally understood a little bit of what the two were talking about.
Her eyes suddenly lit up: "Brother, next time you feed the little beast fish, can you let Xiaoyan watch it too?"
"That might be a little difficult." Lu Qing said, "It seems that it only comes after you fall asleep."
"Why?" The little guy felt a little aggrieved, "Does it hate Xiaoyan?"
"I don't know about that. Maybe the little beast is timid. Once it gets more familiar with us, it will probably be willing to see you."
"Then brother, you should get along with it quickly. Xiaoyan also wants to see what the little animal looks like." Xiaoyan said expectantly.
"I'll try my best."
What could Lu Qing say but to nod in agreement.
"Oh, Grandpa Chen, this is for you. I caught some small fish yesterday. Didn't you say you wanted to eat some last time? I wonder if this is enough?"
Lu Qing gave the prepared fresh fish to the old doctor.
The old doctor took a look and was quite satisfied: "Put it inside. I bought the things you asked me to buy and put them in the house."
