Chapter 57: Catching Loaches
I have a fish pond at home, and a month ago, I put three kinds of fry in grass carp, carp and silver carp, and now I need to cut the grass every day to feed the fish. The ducks are still small, and they have been locked in the duck house which is not conducive to their physical and mental health, and they need to be put into the creek to play in the water in the morning and evening, and when they are older, the seedlings in the field are also strong, so you don't have to be so careful, you can drive the ducks to the field in the morning, and then go to collect them in the evening and rush back.
Wang He took a sickle, cut a dustpan full of tender green grass, washed the grass into the fish pond one by one, and did not go back immediately, but carried an empty bottle of white wine and carried the dustpan to fish.
Wang He has missed this moment for a long time! This was his favorite thing to do when he was a child in his previous life!
Between the farmland, there will be a number of narrow ditches, because it is a hilly area, the farmland reclaimed is uneven, in rainy days, the water will be washed down from top to bottom, if the water in the field is too much, it will not be conducive to the growth of seedlings, at this time it is necessary to quickly drain the water in the field, these narrow ditches are used for drainage.
The destination of Wang He's fishing is these ditches. The most common in the ditch are loaches, eels and pompora. Pompula is the name of the Hakka region, and its scientific name is Chinese betta fish. There is also a small fish that does not grow long, and the locals call it pago, which is only two or three grains in size at the largest.
Wang He first put the dustpan in the downstream of a section of the ditch, and stepped on it with his feet, and then walked upstream from the ridge, jumped into the ditch and began to walk downstream, which is to drive the fish inside, and after walking closer, he lifted the dustpan, and as the water flowed away quickly in the bamboo cracks in the dustpan, several pomps flattened their bodies and jumped in the dustpan, and a few loaches were writhing and swimming, and there were also a few pago jumping around.
Wang He first grabbed Pompula into a glass bottle filled with half a bottle of water, and then went to catch the loaches, and as soon as he put a loach into the mouth of the bottle, he heard the sound of triggering the task:
"Ding. β
[Congratulations to Wang He, you triggered the quest "Catching Loaches"!]
γAccept the mission:γ
γYesγ
[No]
After Wang He grabbed the remaining loaches into the bottle, he ordered [yes].
The pond was full of water
The rain also stopped
The mud on the edge of the field is full of loaches
β¦β¦
This is a children's song, the lyrics are very simple, Wang He brought his sister's daughter in the later life, and his two sons, so it was not difficult for this song at all, and he quickly sang the lyrics correctly.
[The lyrics above the underlined line are sung correctly, congratulations on successfully accepting the task!]
[Requirements: Catch a loach over 6 cm.] γ
β¦β¦
"6 centimeters, that's got to be an old loach. β
Wang He raised the glass bottle in front of his eyes and looked at it, and the largest and longest loach he had caught just now was less than 5 centimeters, so it seemed that he had to continue to catch it.
"The revolution has not yet succeeded, and the loach catching must continue. β
Wang He leisurely carried the bottle and carried the dustpan to continue fishing, until the glass bottle was almost full, and then caught a loach more than 6 centimeters.
[Congratulations to Wang He, you have completed the task of "Catching Loaches"!]
γYou have earned:γ
[1. 100 XP]
[2. A super star card]
Wang He swept his eyes casually, and only after clicking on the cards did he pat his head and exclaimed:
"Oh no, it's not a one-star card, it's a superstar card!
[With this card, you can direct loaches in the field of vision to act according to the card holder's wishes!]
[Duration: 5 minutes.] γ
[How to use: Just say "Let's catch loaches" in your heart. After meditating, 100 XP points will be deducted. γ
[Note: Can only be used once within 24 hours.] γ
After Wang He finished reading the skill description on the card, he no longer fished, but asked Xiao Ai while walking home:
"Xiao Ai, what is a Super Star Card? I just got a Super Star Card. β
Xiao Ai said a little excitedly:
"Super Star Card? You actually got a Super Star Card?! Your luck is not an ordinary good duck!"
Wang He thinks it's very ordinary:
"Is the Super Star Card very powerful? I don't think the skills are unusual. It's just catching loaches. β
Xiao Ai patiently explained:
"That's when you just got it, I don't know how powerful it is! Now the skill of this card is still very weak, and when you upgrade it to the back, you will sigh how powerful its skill is! The super star card is different from the one-star card you got before, the previous card can only be upgraded to a five-star card at most, and the super star card has no level limit, as long as you can complete its upgrade task, you can upgrade its level infinitely!"
"Damn! The super star card is so sharp!"
When Wang He heard this, he couldn't help but burst into foul language:
"When I meet the conditions for upgrading, I must upgrade this card first to see how good the skills behind it are!"
Little Love:
"The Super Star Card is not limited by the one-star card upgrade, you can upgrade it now. β
When Wang He heard this, he hurriedly asked:
"Really, where, where, where?"
Little Love:
"It's on the back of the card. β
When Wang He returned home, he threw the dustpan aside, took out a basin and filled half a basin with water, and then poured all the harvest from the glass jar into the basin.
Wang He didn't have the heart to care about the loach now, sat on the stool in front of the kitchen stove, clicked on the back of the super star card and looked, sure enough, there was a [upgrade] button in the middle of the back of the card, and below the button, there was also a parenthesis and text:
[Number of upgrades: 1/?]
Wang He clicked [Upgrade], and was scared by the text that popped up:
[50,000 experience points need to be deducted from the Super Star Card from Super One to Super 2, please confirm whether to upgrade.] γ
γYesγ
[No]
β5γ50000οΌοΌοΌβ
The dumbfounded Wang He counted carefully twice, confirming that there were indeed 4 zeros behind 5, and couldn't help but nod [no] stupidly, and then "puffed" again, before he said depressedly:
"It's hard to move an inch without money, and you can't get promoted without experience. Why is it that the system that I read at the starting point in later generations is so simple for others to get, and the difficulty of the system I get is so high?"
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside, it was Wang Xiangyu who came back, he went to discuss with the clansmen about the tomb sweeping tomorrow, as soon as he came back and saw his son sitting on a stool, drooping his head, looking listless, he asked:
"Erer, what are you doing here?"
Wang He cheered up and said:
"Oh, nothing, I just came back from fishing, sit down and rest for a while. I, I'm going to herd ducks. β
Wang He went to release the duck, took a bamboo pole more than three meters long and the thickness of his thumb, and drove the duck into the stream, on the other side of the stream is the rice field where the seedlings have just been planted, and the seedlings have not yet grown, so the ducks cannot be pecked or trampled on.
Wang He stood on the ridge of the field with a bamboo pole horizontally, and tied a one-foot-long red cloth at the end of the bamboo pole, and drove the occasional duckling who wanted to run up the field back into the stream, looking at these frolicking ducks, Wang He remembered the skill of the duck card, [You can command no more than 50 ducks, and act according to the will of the card holder], but unfortunately it can only last for 5 minutes now, and when the level goes up, it lasts for a long time, and it is easy to release the ducks.
Cutting fish grass, fishing, and releasing ducks are the most common things Wang He does after the holiday, and there is another thing that is to dry the grain, but it is not yet time, and it can only be done after the rice is cut during the summer vacation.
The sun moved westward, slowly setting on the other side of the mountain, and it was getting late, and the people who were working began to go home, and in the distance they saw the figures of the mother and the second aunt, and the figures of the elder sister and two other young girls also appeared in the field, and they all carried large bamboo baskets full of pigweed.
The cries of chickens, ducks, pigs, dogs, cows, etc., mixed together, together with the chirping of insects and birds, echoed in this twilight, together with the voices of men, women and children, formed a rural song, floating over the maple lawn.
