Chapter 088: Fishing on the Lake
Lu Xuan hovered above the lake and admired it quietly for a moment, until his heartbeat completely returned to normal rhythm, then he turned around and flew towards the shore, then slowly landed and jumped off the hoverboard.
At this time, the audience in the live broadcast room also calmed down.
[This lake is so big, now the anchor doesn't have to worry about running out of water during the hottest season.]
[Indeed, even if the hot season lasted a year or two, let alone a few months, the water here wouldn't dry up.]
[It's rare to come across such a beautiful lake, would you like to go for a swim? ]
Lu Xuan said: "There's no rush to swim, but you can definitely swim in the lake."
Audience:?
Lu Xuan walked to the lakeside and waved his hand. One kayak after another of different colors and models lined up in a row by the lake.
Most of these kayaks were drawn from the silver blind box, and one or two were drawn as a guaranteed prize from the ordinary blind box.
Kayaks come in different sizes. The smallest one is only two meters long and one meter and two meters wide. Excluding the inflatable bag, it can only accommodate one adult.
If lying down, it can only accommodate the elderly and children who are no taller than 1.5 meters.
The larger ones are three meters long, four meters long, more than five meters and close to six meters long, with a width of one and a half to two meters. There are also round or octagonal ones with awnings similar to modern life rafts.
The largest model is large enough for seven or eight strong men to lie down comfortably inside, and if they are to sit, twenty people can squeeze in.
There are also manual and engine powered boats.
Lu Xuan drew a total of eight kayaks and only two motor boats, one three meters long and the other nearly six meters long. The latter was the guaranteed reward for the daily 100 consecutive draws of silver.
Kayaks also vary widely in price.
The original price of a small manual boat in the mall is basically a few thousand, and the original price of a small power boat is tens of thousands.
Large manual boats and small power boats are of the same price. If it is a power boat, the price will increase to about 30,000, which is also the upper limit price of kayaks.
Lu Xuan tried out different types of kayaks, and then took out a pile of tents he had collected.
We have single tents, double tents and family tents.
The most expensive tent does not exceed 500 points, and they are all ordinary blind box products. There are more of them than kayaks, with a total of more than 20.
Tents and kayaks are not matching items, but the models of the two can be matched. There are also alloy buckles on the kayak specifically for installing tents.
Lu Xuan put a tent on each kayak according to its size.
When needed, the tent can be opened to provide shade and shelter from the rain. When not needed, it can be folded up and used as a "convertible" boat. It is very flexible.
After setting up the tent, Lu Xuan put the rest of the kayaks away, leaving only a three-meter-long one. He jumped on it and sat down. He removed the alloy oars attached to both sides of the kayak and slowly paddled into the lake.
There is almost no vegetation around the lake on the top of the mountain, so there is naturally no shade. Under direct sunlight, the temperature is much higher than that in the forest.
It’s different with a tent.
The tent is not expensive but the materials are of good quality. The sunshade effect is better than the shade of trees, and the temperature inside the tent is at least ten degrees cooler than outside.
However, the air permeability is indeed poor, and it is inevitable to feel stuffy if you stay in it for a long time.
Lu Xuan took out a few shallow plastic boxes and placed them around himself, condensing boxes of ice cubes out. The temperature in the tent quickly dropped to the most comfortable level for the human body.
Lu Xuan rowed the boat while turning his head to look at the lake.
The lake water is only about 20 to 30 meters deep near the shore. The deeper you go towards the center, the deeper it is, with the deepest place reaching more than 100 meters.
The audience in the live broadcast room can only see a depth of about ten meters through the live screen. Many big fish can be seen swimming leisurely in the emerald green lake water.
[Slurp, these fish look so plump and delicious.]
[Is the host planning to cruise the lake at such a leisurely pace? ]
Lu Xuan: "Of course not."
As the old saying goes, we are already here.
The prey is already right in front of us, wouldn’t it be a shame not to catch it?
He took a quick look around the nearby waters, selected a fish gathering area, took out an electronic fishing net and threw it onto the lake.
The heavy fishing net quickly sank into the water, catching a large number of lake fish.
Lu Xuan seized the opportunity and pressed the net-closing button. The fishing net quickly closed and trapped the fish that had no time to break free, and was quickly retrieved.
Feeling the heavy weight coming from below, Lu Xuan's arm muscles couldn't help but tense up and increase his strength.
The audience stared with wide eyes at the shadow gradually approaching the bottom of the lake, and found that the size of the fish in the net was even larger than the kayak Lu Xuan was sitting in, and it could not fit on the kayak at all.
Lu Xuan had no intention of pulling the fish onto the boat.
When the fishing net was almost pulled out of the lake, he put the entire net of fish into the space bead for meat classification.
Living things cannot be placed in the space. The fish will be dead when you put them in. When you take them out and process them later, they will be the same as freshly killed ones. It also saves the effort of beating them to death.
Next, Lu Xuan used the same method to cast the net twice more.
Unlike a well-known Tianchi Lake in modern times where there are only cold-water fish, the altitude of this mountain is not very high and the temperature of the lake is not very low. Many common warm-water fish live in the lake.
Among them, grass carp, silver carp, catfish and carp are the main ones, as well as some fish that Lu Xuan cannot name, as well as shrimps such as grass shrimp and prawns.
After catching fish in three nets, Lu Xuan obtained nearly 1,200 kilograms of different kinds of fish and shrimp.
Although the hunting team had previously gone to the waterfall and caught hundreds of kilograms of fish, those fish had to be shared by the entire village.
Today, these more than a thousand kilograms of fish belong to Lu Xuan's personal supplies.
There was so much fish that it was enough to feed their family of four for a long time.
After catching the fish, Lu Xuan looked at the time displayed in the live broadcast room.
It was early in the morning when I left home, which was a little after five o'clock. It took me about half an hour to reach the top of the mountain. After that, I checked the kayak and fished. It is now half past seven.
The temperature at this time is far from the highest temperature at noon. It can even be said that it is the coolest time of the day. It is a good time to collect supplies.
On the way here, Lu Xuan had already discovered a lot of resources, but he was so addicted to skateboarding that he didn't stop.
Now that we have found our destination, it is time to get down to business.
He took out his hoverboard again, stepped on it, and leaped off the top of the mountain towards his target.
·
In one morning, Lu Xuan hunted a group of goats, a group of deer, and two litters of wild boars.
In order to save energy, he instantly froze the prey and stored them in space, so the battle took almost no effort.
In addition, he also found two unripe mountain grape vines, a small bunch of wild strawberries, a small patch of fennel, some common herbs, some pheasant eggs and bird eggs, etc.
Most importantly, Lu Xuan found several medium-sized beehives and obtained more than 60 kilograms of honey.
He had no shortage of other supplies and didn't mind sharing them out, but he couldn't get hundreds or thousands of pounds of honey. If he wanted to enjoy it to his heart's content, he could only get as much as possible when he went out alone.
Getting more than 60 kilograms on the first day was certainly a good harvest, but it was still a drop in the bucket.
So when Lu Xuan was about to go back this time, he took the entire bee colony away with him.
The audience in the live broadcast room couldn't help but give a thumbs up when they learned of his plan.
It's bad enough that you're robbing the bees' food supply, but for the sake of sustainable development, you're even robbing the bees' population!
However, thinking that the hosts will never be short of honey, which also means they will have endless related delicacies to eat, the audience just wants to say: Well done!
After returning to the top of the mountain, Lu Xuan placed the single safe house on a flat ground about ten meters away from the shore as his stay for the next few days.
In the next few days, he also planned to search for supplies in all directions, centered on the alpine lakes.
Lu Xuan didn't do anything new for lunch. It was all pre-processed food: a large bucket of rice with a bowl of sweet and sour pork ribs, braised pork elbow, and pickled pepper bamboo shoots.
The audience in the live broadcast room happily followed suit and showed off another delicious meal.
After the meal, Lu Xuan took out two more chilled watermelons.
Don’t be too comfortable eating chilled watermelon on a hot day.
The audience in the live broadcast room kept shouting that they enjoyed the meal.
At noon, the temperature on the top of the mountain was close to 55 degrees. At this temperature, it was basically impossible for animals with thick fur to continue moving outside.
In the afternoon, Lu Xuan stayed at the place where he was staying and simply cleaned up the prey he had caught in the morning. He sorted the fur, meat and bones into different categories and put them back in place.
After dealing with the prey, Lu Xuan continued to stimulate the seeds in his hand.
Keep supplying superpowers, ripening them, ripening them, and ripening them again. Keep the mutated ones, and continue to input superpowers or change seeds for the ones that haven't mutated.
As the sun set, Lu Xuan had three more mutant vegetable seeds in his hands, namely spicy radish, cucumber and sweet pepper. As for the staple food, only two mutant rice plants had mutated, and there was no sign of mutation in the wheat, glutinous rice and sorghum.
But it doesn’t matter, there’s plenty of time later.
In the evening, the temperature dropped to 45 degrees, which was the lowest temperature of the day.
At this time, the wild animals were about to come out and move around again, so Lu Xuan went down the mountain again.
This time he followed several tributaries of the river and, as expected, found many animals coming out to look for food and drink water.
There are many kinds of animals, such as roe deer, musk deer, wild boar, raccoon dog, weasel...
Not to mention the pheasants and rabbits, Lu Xuan easily found more than a dozen hiding through the gaps in the dense grass.
He was too lazy to even pick up the stones. He just condensed a row of ice arrows and shot them out. Almost all the animals wandering around were caught in one net, except for the very small ones like squirrels.
These prey were not very special and did not taste particularly delicious, but Lu Xuan soon found a group of wild ducks. In the area where the ducks were active, he discovered a small lake and a group of wild black swans wandering in the lake.
Lu Xuan was not interested in swan meat, but he had never eaten swan eggs.
I don't know which one tastes better, goose eggs or omelets.
He searched around in the surrounding grass and finally found swan eggs in a few relatively hidden corners that were obviously different from chicken and duck eggs.
Lu Xuan looked at the eggs in the sunlight to see if they were fertilized. If they were, he would keep them and only take the unfertilized eggs.
Maybe it was the wrong season, but Lu Xuan only found less than ten swan eggs, and only four of them were unfertilized, just enough for each family member.
Fortunately, in addition to swan eggs, Lu Xuan also picked up a lot of duck eggs.
There were much more duck eggs than swan eggs, filling half a basket.
When Lu Xuan returned to his temporary residence, it was already completely dark.
He took out dinner for the audience to eat while opening the mall's daily discounts.
