Chapter 225: The Big Guy in the Lake
Chu Qiao said as he walked, "While relatives are visiting, girls can eat more fruits and vegetables, chicken and fish; don't touch coffee, cola, chocolate, etc."
Seeing Chu Qiao openly discussing the woman's embarrassing things, the comments in the live broadcast room gradually became lively.
Girls who have never dared to express themselves left messages one after another.
[It hurts like hell every time.]
[Giving birth doesn’t hurt this much.]
【The feeling of ascension.】
…
Chu Qiao wasn't a doctor, so he had a basic understanding of this, but everyone had their own expertise. He smiled and said, "If you feel a lot of pain at this stage, don't be embarrassed and avoid seeing a doctor. This is a serious matter for girls, and going to the hospital for a checkup is the best solution."
As he spoke, Chu Qiao saw the kapok tree.
The kapok tree grows tall, but its branches start to grow from one meter below the main trunk, and there is a branch at every end, so it is not difficult to climb.
Chu Qiao climbed to the treetops easily.
This is the time when kapok trees bear fruit. The fruits of kapok trees are very large, about 10 cm in size, and like ripe cotton, they crack open one after another, revealing white cotton wool inside. Some of the cotton wool falls with the wind, and the branches sway gently. The cotton wool floats in the air like snow and falls to the ground.
Chu Qiao picked up a piece of cotton wool and said, "In ancient times in Beidou, there was no cotton. This kind of cotton wool was the main material for making clothes and was very warm."
"Black seeds are hidden in the cotton wool. Wherever the wind carries the cotton wool, they will take root and sprout."
Chu Qiao picked a lot of cotton wool and wrapped it in the big lotus leaf he carried with him.
She returned to the camp, compacted the cotton wool, cut the lotus leaves into long strips, and put the cotton wool and lotus leaves together.
Chu Qiao shook his head and said, "The lotus leaf and cotton wool are separated. I need to find something similar to glue to stick them together."
Chu Qiao walked into the jungle, trying to find a pine tree or a Chinese toon tree. The pine gum and the liquid flowing from the Chinese toon tree are both sticky.
After walking a few steps, Chu Qiao's reed-flowered clothes were caught by something. Chu Qiao turned around and saw that it was not a branch, but a tree that stuck him.
This tree grows small orange fruits that are smaller than sea buckthorn.
Chu Qiao was stuck on his reed-flowered clothes by a cluster of small fruits.
Chu Qiao's eyes lit up. "The fruit of this tree contains mucus, which is very sticky. It should be able to be used as glue."
Chu Qiao pulled the fruit off and crushed it. Sure enough, the sticky liquid from the fruit was like glue, stretching between Chu Qiao's fingers.
Chu Qiao returned to the camp, crushed the collected fruits, spread them evenly on the lotus leaves, and then stuck thick cotton wool on them.
The glue was too sticky and it took a long time to wash it off. Chu Qiao simply made more than 40 at a time, which was basically enough for her relatives' visit.
After finishing, Chu Qiao felt relieved even though her back and waist ached.
It's simply unimaginable without this.
The sun was about to set, and Chu Qiao's stomach rumbled. After solving the embarrassing problem, she finally realized that she hadn't eaten for a day.
Chu Qiao pushed the canoe onto the lake, rowed with the wind, and soon she reached the center of the lake.
"We lowered the nets yesterday. We're not sure how the catch was. Let's pull them in now and see."
Chu Qiao slid the branch closer and closer to the two trees where the fishing nets were tied. Chu Qiao leaned forward and untied the two ends tied to the trees.
Slowly retract the fishing net towards you.
As the net got tighter and tighter, Chu Qiao's smile grew wider and wider. She said excitedly, "The net is getting heavier and heavier. There must be something inside, and it must be quite big."
Chu Qiao was already feeling the strain halfway through pulling. If he continued like this, the big fish inside would probably struggle to escape in no time.
Chu Qiao was not in a hurry. She slid the canoe, dragged the fishing net, and slowly moved towards the shore.
Because the canoe was dragging too many things, the right side was much higher than the left side. A lot of water slowly entered the small groove where Chu Qiao was sitting, soaking Chu Qiao's clothes.
Chu Qiao paddled carefully, gently bringing the canoe to the edge of the lake, and then she jumped out of the canoe.
As soon as she landed, Chu Qiao felt like a fish in water and her movements became very agile. She pulled the net with one hand and ran away.
The big fish in the net felt that the water was not deep enough and began to struggle.
Chu Qiao ran to a big tree, leaned his back against the tree trunk, leaned his body backward, and suddenly exerted force with the arm that was pulling the net. His biceps bulged and the fishing net was pulled out of the water.
Chu Qiao felt a huge force working against her. She pushed back hard. The black shadow in the net was a full meter long, and its thick tail kept swinging. Chu Qiao's center of gravity shifted backward, and she almost sat on the ground.
The fishing net drew a parabola in the air, and the net, carrying the undried lake water, rushed towards Chu Qiao's head.
Chu Qiao rolled over and avoided the fishing net, but he couldn't avoid the water plants thrown off the fishing net.
[Master Chu, wear a wig.]
【Hahaha. 】
[A patch of green above your head is not a good sign.]
[Fortunately, Mr. Chu is single, otherwise...]
Chu Qiao pulled off the moving water plants above his head and punched the fly-sized drone in the sky: "Don't take screenshots, it's too embarrassing."
[Already cut off.]
[I'm so sorry, Master Chu, I can't listen to you this time.]
【This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, don’t miss it. 】
Chu Qiao glared at everyone and shook his head. Forget it, let's just see what we can harvest this time.
Chu Qiao felt very proud when he thought of this. The fish, which was more than one meter long, was enough to eat for several days.
Chu Qiao's eyes fell on the big fish in the fishing net, and he froze like a statue.
The camera that was originally facing her turned to follow her eyes.
【Oh my god, I’m so scared.】
What is that?
[Master Chu, can this be eaten? ]
[I thought of the blobfish when Master Chu was trying to survive in the sea. It was just as ugly.]
The big fish had a smooth surface and no scales. Its long tail swayed from side to side, and it seemed that it had just fallen hard, with its head drooping.
Chu Qiao had a conflicted expression as he approached the fishing net and looked at the black, monster-like thing inside.
The drone flew low, almost touching the ground, and was able to capture the fact that this big black creature actually had four legs underneath.
Chu Qiao looked at the leg, and the frown on his face suddenly relaxed. He said, "Don't look at it because it's ugly. It's a Class II protected animal in Beidou."
Did I hear that wrong?
[Does it mean you can’t eat it? ]
What a shame! It's so big, but we can't eat it.
"Not only can't you eat it, you can't harm it either." Chu Qiao nodded. "This is a giant salamander. It lives in freshwater and is a wild animal unique to Beidou. It's not surprising that it's now on the border between Beidou and Wo Country."
"It usually lives in the water, and sometimes moves under tree trunks close to the shore. It usually eats fish, frogs, snakes, shrimp and other aquatic creatures."
The giant salamander in the net opened its mouth wide and swallowed a motionless carp next to it.
