With a gasp from Bai Cailing, Dongfang Ling pulled the trigger.
With a soft "click," a triangular hook, carrying a line, traced a beautiful parabola in the rain before plunging into the belly of a suspended fish.
The floating fish was startled, its beady eyes widening in surprise. It belatedly flicked its tail, ready to fly into the rain.
Dongfang Ling reacted quickly, grabbing the end of the thin rope, looping it around the concrete block on the bridge railing, and stuffing the rope into Bai Cailing's hand.
“Pull!” she commanded coldly.
Bai Cailing stammered "you you you" a few times before finally realizing what was happening. Looking at the floating fish caught on the hook in the sky, she was both surprised and delighted.
To everyone's delight, Dongfang Ling had excellent aim and caught the fish in no time.
To her surprise, the rope in her hand was pulling less than she had expected.
Bai Cailing quickly pulled hard. With the bridge pier acting as a buffer, the levitation magnetic field emitted by the floating fish didn't have a big impact on her. She just felt her body was a little floating and it was difficult to exert force.
But she couldn't help but praise Dongfang Ling: "Sister Dongfang, you are so smart!"
After saying that, he braced his feet against the bridge pier, grabbed the rope with his hands, and used his strength to slowly pull the rope back.
Before long, the exhausted floating fish was pulled close.
"We did it!" Bai Cailing cheered excitedly, completely ignoring Dongfang Ling's warning look.
The other lords were still trying to get closer to the floating fish when they suddenly heard this cheer and looked over enviously.
Dongfang Ling quickly put the prepared plastic sealing bag over the floating fish to keep it out of the rain. It was like a fish that had fallen onto a chopping board, at the mercy of others.
After removing the hook, Dongfang Ling impatiently tugged at Bai Cailing and continued catching the next one.
Bai Cailing smiled sweetly, seemingly unconcerned, and while waiting, she secretly observed Zhao Gang and his daughter next door.
Zhao Gang made a tool for Zhao Xiaoxiu to catch fish.
He tied two five-meter-long poles together, put a rope over the top, and made a loop.
"This is called setting a fishing rod."
Zhao Gang said in a serious tone: "Hold the rod, choose the fish you like, throw the snare over it and catch it."
Zhao Xiaoxiu listened with a serious expression and replied, "Mhm."
Zhao Gang patted the baby's head, which was covered by a rain hat, with satisfaction. "Little Xiu is so smart. You can play by yourself while Daddy goes to catch fish."
"good!"
Kids love this kind of free arrangement.
Under Bai Cailing's astonished gaze, Zhao Xiaoxiu gripped the end of the fishing rod with both hands, lifting it as she moved towards the center of the bridge. Suddenly, with a burst of strength, the rope at the end of the fishing rod lashed high into the air with a "whoosh."
There was no other way; I'm short, so I had to resort to this clumsy method.
The first time, the rope wasn't swung high enough, and due to the magnetic field, it floated on the bridge surface without touching the fish's tail at all.
But Zhao Xiaoxiu never gave up. She reeled in her fishing rod and began moving it around on the bridge again, casting the rope out a second time.
This time, it was much higher than the first time, and it brushed against the tail of a floating fish.
Bai Cailing was dumbfounded. This three-year-old child's strength was too exaggerated!
Although the magnetic field of this space was affected, and all the objects inside became lighter, even an adult like her might not be able to swing such a long pole and rope.
Turning to look at Zhang Lijun's trio across from them, they were also learning Dongfang Ling's method, but without the aid of a gun, they were using a method similar to using a fishing rod.
The three people took turns swinging the rope. Zhang Lijun, who was a strength-type evolved being, was already covered in sweat after swinging the rope more than ten times.
Zhao Xiaoxiu began her third attempt, and luckily, a hovering fish that was flying relatively low was caught off guard and its tail was caught in the rope.
Zhao Xiaoxiu was overjoyed and quickly grabbed the pole and ran in the opposite direction.
Because she was small, she encountered less resistance and didn't run very fast, but she was much more agile than the adults.
The suspended fish struggled, and the buoyancy magnetic field was projected around Zhao Xiaoxiu as she ran. As she ran, she found that her body was off the ground.
She was startled at first, then began to walk in the air, her lips gradually curving upwards, and her eyes sparkling with delight—this is so much fun!
The lords nearby shouted in panic, "Zhao Gang, your kid's gone to heaven!"
Bai Cailing was the closest and the most anxious. Seeing Zhao Xiaoxiu gripping the pole and her feet getting higher and higher off the ground, she let go of the rope and wanted to grab her.
But before she could make a move, Zhao Gang's cheerful laughter came over, "It's alright, let her float for a while."
fine?
Everyone doubted they had heard correctly.
The person was already more than a meter off the ground and was still rising. You call that nothing happened?
"Zhao Gang, stop messing around! The child will break a bone if he falls!" Bai Cailing warned excitedly.
Zhao Gang said confidently, "No, you guys go ahead and catch fish."
He's always 'watching' the baby, and if the cub likes to play, he lets her play a little longer.
Even if you fall and get hurt, so be it; it's your own fault anyway.
Zhao Gang glanced at Zhao Xiaoxiu, who was gripping the fishing rod tightly with both hands, and nodded in satisfaction.
Not bad, I strictly followed the key points for catching fish that Aji just mentioned: either let go at the beginning or hold on tightly.
Even fish get tired eventually, Zhao Gang thought to himself with a very positive attitude.
He stretched out his right hand, and a blood-red tentacle as thick as a bowl appeared, instantly entangling the five floating fish.
With another flick of his tentacles, he stuffed the five bewildered floating fish into the bag.
Everyone was working up a sweat but hadn't caught a single fish. He, on the other hand, took his time, first putting the child aside, and then caught five fish as soon as he started working!
But that's not the point.
The key point is that his tentacles aren't just tiny strips about the thickness of a thumb, are they?
So it can freely change size, lengthen and shorten?
Zhao Gang once again flung out blood, and Bai Cailing, who was closest to him, felt a jolt in her heart.
For a moment, she thought she had encountered some kind of novel mutant.
Zhao Gang turned around and smiled slightly at them, then ignored them and went back to catching his own fish.
In no time, a large sack was filled.
Because it's not waterproof, rainwater seeps in, and the burlap sack floats off the ground, looking like a giant balloon.
The patrol team, who had successfully caught a net of floating fish, watched helplessly as the burlap sack behind Zhao Gang swelled up as if it were about to burst. Looking back at the sack in their own truck bed, it would be a lie to say they weren't envious.
Aji excitedly nudged his stationmaster, "Stationmaster, didn't you say you two are close? Why don't you call Lord No. 13 over to help us out?"
Mo Shigui glared at him. "When did I say I was familiar with him?"
"Didn't you say that?" Aji scratched his head. "I remember you said yesterday that you knew each other."
Seeing that his teammates behind him all had the same expression as Aji, Mo Shigui's face turned cold and he roared:
"You're all so capable of envying others, but you're not so capable of practicing your own skills! I think you're all living too laxly. When you get back to the station, each of you practice your evolution ability three hundred times!"
Upon hearing this, the soldiers' faces instantly turned sour.
