Chapter 5 A Rich Harvest
Lu Qing came to the fishing spot, flattened the surrounding grass, put it in the wooden barrel, and then took out the bamboo tube containing the earthworms.
Remove the seal on the bamboo tube to reveal the twisting red earthworm inside.
The little kids had sharp eyes and were in a high position, so when they saw clearly what was twisting in the bamboo tube, they immediately exclaimed in surprise.
As for earthworms, of course they knew about them and often caught them to play with.
Sometimes we dig it up and feed it to the chickens and ducks at home.
But they don’t know that this thing can also be used to catch fish.
Under the gaze of the little kids, Lu Qing took out an earthworm and put it on the hook.
Then throw the still twisting earthworm into the water.
The landing point is exactly the location of the gray light thread fishing point marked by the supernatural power.
When the fish hook entered the water, Lu Qing began to wait quietly.
The little kids on the slope behind them were so nervous that they held their breath and watched the scene closely.
Soon, they saw that the small wooden stick tied to the bamboo pole and fishing line, which was now floating on the water, began to move slightly.
So the little kids became even more nervous.
Only Lu Qing remained calm and composed, standing still without moving, letting the wooden stick shake.
He didn't lift the fishing rod until one end of the wooden stick tilted up and suddenly sank down.
A white line flew out of the water.
When everyone could see clearly, a long white fish as thick as two fingers was already hanging on the fishhook.
“I really caught a fish!”
The little kids were stunned when they saw the little white fish hanging on the hook, its tail jumping and swinging constantly.
Xiaoyan even jumped up: "Brother caught a fish, what a big fish!"
Lu Qing also smiled.
Fortunately, his technique did not regress and he pulled it up on the first cast. Otherwise, he would be embarrassed if the fish came off the hook in front of a bunch of little kids.
Taking the fish off, Lu Qing observed it carefully.
This little white fish is quite similar to the whitebait he had caught in his previous life.
Soon, a faint gray light emerged from the fish's body.
[Small white fish: Edible, may be good for nutritional supplement. ]
Seeing the word "edible", Lu Qing immediately felt relieved.
It’s good to be able to eat, at least today’s food is settled.
He poured some water into the bucket and put the fish in. He heard the little kids behind him still shouting excitedly and felt helpless.
"Be quiet, don't scare the fish away."
Hearing this, the little kids quickly covered their mouths and dared not make any more noise.
But the excitement in his eyes could not be concealed.
When they saw Lu Qing really catch a fish, they were so excited as if they had discovered a new world.
However, what happened next made the little kids feel what true excitement was.
Lu Qing put a new earthworm on the hook and put it into the water. Not long after, the float moved and another small white fish was pulled up.
From then on, Lu Qing began to enter the connecting rod mode.
He kept catching small fish one after another, and it was so easy, as if he was pulling the fish directly out of the water.
The fish caught are no longer limited to small white fish, but also include other types of small fish.
We also caught a lot of fish such as yellow croaker and small river shrimp.
This scene really excited the little kids behind them.
If they hadn't been afraid of scaring the fish away, they would have shouted loudly.
Lu Qing reached into the bamboo tube again, but came up empty-handed.
When he looked inside, he found that most of the earthworms in the bamboo tube had been caught by him, with only a few left at the bottom.
Looking at the wooden barrel next to it, it was also full, indicating a good harvest.
He couldn't help but smile.
It's been a long time since I've tried pulling the lever so smoothly.
It is worthy of being a different world. The fish grown in this original ecological environment are simply different.
It has a full sense of power, and even small fish can be pulled up with great feel.
At the same time, he was somewhat relieved.
Fortunately, we chose this fishing spot. Even the small fish pulled the rod so hard. If we had gone to the other two fishing spots, I’m afraid the fishing line would have been broken by the big fish in an instant.
I saw that the earthworms had been almost used up, and the frequency of fish taking the bait had obviously decreased since then.
Lu Qing knew it was time to stop.
If he continues fishing, all the small fish gathered below the fishing spot will be swept away by him.
They have to be given time to gather again.
Thinking of this, Lu Qing began to put away the fishing rod, poured the remaining earthworms into the water, then picked up the wooden barrel and walked upstairs.
The eyes of the little kids on the small slope were already full of admiration at this moment.
When they saw Lu Qing coming up, they immediately surrounded him.
I was amazed at the big bucket of small fish.
"Brother Lu Qing, you are amazing. You caught so many fish!"
"There are so many fish. How long will it take to finish them all?"
“It turns out that you can really catch fish with a bamboo pole!”
…
"Brother, brother, fish, fish, so many fish!"
Xiaoyan also came to Lu Qing, jumping and dancing, her little face flushed with excitement.
"It's okay, but the fish is a little small." Lu Qing said reservedly.
When the kids were almost excited, Lu Qing said, "You guys, help me carry this bucket of fish back. Then everyone will have a share of the fish."
Lu Qing estimated that the fish he caught this time might be around 7 or 8 kilograms. Adding the wooden barrel and water, it was quite heavy.
He is still weak now, so it is not a big deal to lift the fish for the time being, but he still feels a little overwhelmed if he wants to move the fish back to the village.
Anyway, there was so much fish that the brother and sister couldn’t finish it in one or two meals.
Small fish are easy to die, and there are no conditions to preserve them at home, so it is better to give some away.
"Okay, Brother Lu Qing!"
When the little kids heard that there were fish to share, they immediately became excited.
One person lifted one side and easily lifted the whole bucket of fish.
Some people who couldn’t get a seat were so anxious that they almost cried.
For this reason, Lu Qing had to step in to mediate and asked them to take turns replacing people, which calmed the quarrel.
In this way, a group of people carried a large bucket of fish and walked towards the village.
When they arrived at the village, the excited chatting of the little kids attracted some villagers to come out to see what was going on.
When I saw it, I was immediately surprised.
"Lu Qing really caught so many fish?"
During the time that Lu Qing went fishing, the news that he had recovered from his illness spread throughout the village.
Many villagers also knew that he went to the river to fish.
But no one expected that he could catch so many at once.
Look at that wooden barrel, there must be at least ten kilograms of fish in it.
When did Lu Qing learn this skill?
All of a sudden, many villagers became curious.
Especially those villagers who had tried to fish in the river themselves, they especially wanted to know what method Lu Qing used to catch so many fish at once.
So, driven by curiosity, some villagers couldn't help but follow and came to Lu Qing's home.
