Li Shu rubbed the big yellow dog's head and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, I'll give you fish and meat later!"
The Mock brothers came out of the woods, carrying three fat rabbits.
Counting the rabbit in the big orange cat's mouth, there are 4 rabbits in total.
But Li Shu and the others had eight people, and they had to save some rice, so they still had to catch some fish.
soon.
Boss Jing came back with four wooden sticks with sharpened tops. Li Shu took off his shoes and socks, rolled up his trouser legs, took a wooden stick and waded into the stream.
"Xiaoshu, be careful!" Tao Ziqing stood on the shore and said with concern.
"Okay! Do you want to come down? I'll teach you how to spear fish!"
"Huh? I can't."
“Come on, come on, you’ll learn it as soon as you learn it!”
"Haha, I'm afraid I'll be useless as soon as I learn."
Tao Ziqing couldn't resist the temptation, so she took off her shoes and socks, rolled up her trouser legs, took a wooden stick and entered the water.
"Oh~ It's a little cold!"
"The specific heat capacity of water is relatively large. When it absorbs the same amount of heat, the temperature will rise less. It's normal to be a little cold. Come toward me and I'll support you."
Tao Ziqing grabbed Li Shu's arm and walked towards the middle of the river. The rushing water submerged her knees.
But maybe it's because she often wears long pants and her legs don't see the sun. Tao Ziqing's legs are really white. Li Shu saw them last night.
“Look carefully, can you see the big fish in the water? That’s the one with the blue-black back!”
"There really are fish!" Tao Ziqing opened her eyes wide in surprise. She used the little finger of her left hand to hook the broken hair around her ear. The diamond earrings on her crystal earlobes reflected the sunlight.
very beautiful.
"Master, there are really big fish in the river!" Tao Ziqing turned around and shouted to Mr. Xu Sheng.
"Haha, then you can catch me. We will be responsible for making rice and roasting rabbit meat." Mr. Xu Sheng said.
Li Shu smiled at his senior brother Zou Jie and said, "Senior brother, do you want to come and spear fish together?"
"No." Zou Jie really wanted to do things with Tao Ziqing, but in the end reason prevailed.
He felt that he couldn't do the job of spearing fish. If he fell into the stream again, he would be finished.
"You go ahead and spear the fish. The master and I will cook together. You have to spear more fish, otherwise there won't be enough!
Moreover, you have to be careful of leeches, those things suck blood and it hurts! Zou Jie chuckled.
"Ah~" Tao Ziqing trembled all over and looked at Li Shu in horror: "Junior brother, the water... is there a leech in the water?"
"Don't listen to the nonsense of Second Senior Brother, he is scaring you." Li Shu said with a smile.
"Due to the refraction of light by water, the real position of the fish is different from the position where we see it. The real position should be farther forward and lower than the position we see."
Li Shu said: "So when you spear the fish, you have to spear it farther forward, like this."
Brush~
The tip of the sharp wooden stick was pierced into the stream, and a fish was easily picked up.
"Awesome!" Tao Ziqing's eyes were full of admiration.
"Nothing!" Li Shu said proudly.
In fact, he learned the skill of spearing fish from Yan Zhang, and his employee Yan Zhang is the real master of spearing fish.
"I'll try too."
Tao Ziqing forked the wooden stick into the water, swiped the fish's tail, threw a splash, and swam away.
"Come again! Don't lose heart!"
"good!"
After letting three fish go, Tao Ziqing finally caught a fish and was so excited that her eyes turned into crescents.
"sharp!"
"It's still your teaching that's good!"
"We have to speed up, otherwise the second senior brother will be hungry later."
"OK!"
Li Shu and Tao Ziqing forked ten fishes, just one for each of them, and the big yellow dog and orange cat also had some to eat.
After landing, we helped cook together.
Jing Lao Er and Jing Lao Er found a lot of firewood and set up several fires, some for grilling fish, some for roasting hares, and some for cooking rice.
11:45 p.m.
The fish and rabbit were roasted, the rice was cooked, and everyone sat down to eat together.
"This rabbit meat is delicious when grilled!"
"Yes, it's very tender! Junior brother sprinkled it with cumin and the level of chili powder is really good."
“It smells so good!“
Li Shu handed a slightly black grilled fish to the big orange cat and another grilled fish to the big yellow dog. The two pets ate happily.
After dinner, everyone took a rest under the trees and continued on their way until two o'clock in the afternoon.
They walked upstream along the river, not walking very fast, occasionally stopping to look at the scenery and take photos.
At 4 p.m.
Li Shu felt the heat emitted by the white jade ring increase sharply, and his heart suddenly moved. He thought to himself in surprise: "The white jade ring suddenly became incredibly hot. Could it be that the mysterious thing that caused the white jade ring to heat up is nearby?"
This is a shallow shoal, the stream is much wider than where they stayed at noon, and the water is not as fast.
There are a lot of big rocks weighing hundreds of kilograms beside the river, and there are many pebbles in the river.
There is a dark cloud floating in the northern sky.
"Master, brothers and sisters, let's set up camp near here today. Dark clouds are coming from the northwest, and it's likely to rain soon!" Li Shu said.
In fact, they can still move forward.
But Li Shu wanted to stay here. He felt that the mysterious substance that caused the white jade ring to heat up was nearby.
The reason is that the white jade ring has been heating slightly along the way, but only here, the heat emitted suddenly increased!
"Okay! Let's set up the tent nearby." Mr. Xu Sheng said: "We have to set up the tent before the rain comes, and find enough firewood. It is best to eat the food, and then cook when the rain comes. It will be troublesome."
"That's true. Master is right." Zou Jie said.
"Then my junior brother and I will spear fish." Tao Ziqing volunteered.
Worried that the river water level would surge after the rain, everyone chose to camp slightly away from the river.
Miso miso miso~
Jing Lao Er and Jing Lao Er skillfully pitched tents one after another, which they had learned while surviving on a deserted island.
The Mock brothers took the big yellow dog hunting.
Mr. Xu Sheng and Zou Jie collected firewood and cooked rice.
The big orange cat lay with its paws on the big rocks by the river, leisurely watching Li Shu and Tao Ziqing catch fish in the river.
Its big tail swayed gently, looking at the dark clouds approaching quickly in the sky, its big fat face was full of sorrow.
"Meow~"
Will it rain in Neverland too? Is the ant nest going to be washed away again
"Are there river shrimps here? Are there river clams?" Li Shu said in surprise: "But there are so few fish. A fish weighing one or two in this section of the river is considered a big fish."
"Then let's fish for river shrimps and clams." Tao Ziqing said with a smile.
"Okay, these river mussels are about the size of a fist, so they're pretty good."
It is always fun to pick up things, and the two of them had a great time picking up river mussels.
Hua la la~ I threw the river clams I picked up onto the shore. The big orange cat was jumping around happily, smelling this mussel and sniffing that mussel.
The two of them picked up more than 60 river mussels in total before landing them. They only caught a dozen 13-centimeter-long prawns, which were difficult to catch.
The prawns were peeled off and placed in the rice porridge. Mr. Xu Sheng planned to fry the mussels and open them one by one.
When he opened the fortieth clam, he was suddenly startled. There was a round bulge in the mussel's flesh.
With a slight squeeze, a round pearl was exposed in the air!
"Ouch~ There are pearls in this river clam!"
"Where where?"
"Wow, there really is a pearl!"
"The diameter is not small, and what's rare is that it's quite round."
