Chapter 34 Fishing for Stone Frogs

Early the next morning, the sky was just bright, Zhao Ziqiao was carried into the mountain with a firewood knife, since you want to catch the stone frog, purely by hand, it is basically a blind cat to kill the mouse, only the use of tools, in order to increase the output to the maximum.

Zhao Ziqiao and their village behind the mountain grow a piece of bamboo forest, when I was a child could not afford to buy a fishing rod, the children in the village would go up the mountain to cut bamboo, the fishing rod made of bamboo, good toughness, compared to the ordinary fishing rod on the market is not much worse.

Entering the mountain, Zhao Ziqiao went around in the bamboo forest, but most of the bamboo was the thickness of the bowl mouth, and it couldn't be used at all.

After wandering around the bamboo forest for half an hour, Zhao Ziqiao finally found a clump of bamboo suitable for making fishing rods, the thickness of two fingers, the longer it grows, the thinner the bamboo bucket becomes, and the bamboo is also straight, which is simply a standard ideal object.

Finding a suitable bamboo, Zhao Ziqiao waved a firewood knife and chopped three or four, after removing the bamboo branches on the bamboo, he used the cut bamboo branches to weave several rings on the bamboo, carried the bamboo to his body, and walked briskly down the mountain.

After Zhao Ziqiao went down the mountain, he went directly back to his home, turned out the fishing line that had been silent for many years from his home, and then raised a fire, and roasted the bamboo on the fire.

After doing this, it was already an hour later, Zhao Ziqiao looked at the four green and black fishing rods on the ground, nodded with some satisfaction, tied the fishing line to the bamboo rod, and one fishing rod was considered to be alive.

There is a fishing rod, naturally you need a bag to hold the things you catch, this naturally does not bother him, when he was a child, in order to go fishing for frogs, this kind of equipment is all handmade.

However, his family lacked materials, Zhao Ziqiao could only go to his aunt's house, Zhao Yunfang saw Zhao Ziqiao come back, and after asking him what he was doing, he immediately urged him to eat.

Zhao Ziqiao then remembered that he hadn't eaten breakfast yet, so he smiled and said to Zhao Yunfang that he wanted some wires and big plastic bags, Zhao Yunfang heard what Zhao Ziqiao said, and immediately understood that he wanted to make a bag for toads, she asked Zhao Ziqiao to eat, and she went to find the rest of the materials for him.

Zhao Ziqiao thanked Zhao Yunfang and immediately went to the house to eat, as soon as Zhao Ziqiao finished eating, he saw that Zhao Yunfang had prepared the materials.

Zhao Ziqiao did not delay, took the thick wire and bent it into a circle compared to the large plastic bag containing the feed, and then left a piece of wire for the grip at both ends. After a frame was made, he turned the edge of the large plastic bag over to the wire, and then pierced the plastic bag with a thin wire, and wound it around and around, and it didn't take long for a rough bag to be completed, but Zhao Ziqiao felt that the handle wrapped with the wire was a bit awkward, and he went to find some useless waste cloth and wound the handle several times.

Pinched the handle hard, Zhao Ziqiao took the finished bag and tried to demonstrate the action of catching a toad, and he raised his hand to catch it, and it felt okay.

The equipment was perfect, Zhao Ziqiao carried the hoe and walked to the wasteland not far away, if you want to fish for stone frogs, earthworms are an indispensable thing.

According to science, animals such as toads have poor eyesight, and they will only go to moving objects to eat, even if they take a stone and shake it regularly in front of it, they can go up and bite it. However, Zhao Ziqiao still likes to use earthworms, first, it is simple, and secondly, it is impossible to find other animals and plants that can be replaced.

In the wasteland, a few hoes went down, and there were earthworms exposed to the air and bounced unbridledly, Zhao Ziqiao picked one or two larger ones and picked them up and put them in the glass bottles they brought, if they were just going to fish for frogs, the earthworms they dug up just now were suitable, after all, no matter how big the frogs were, they couldn't go anywhere, but what he was going to fish for was a high-level stone frog, and if the earthworms were too small, the strings were not enough for them to bite.

For the kind of stone frog that can weigh pounds, it is best to find the kind of earthworm with the thickness of a small thumb, one can be worth a bunch! Although that kind of big earthworm looks very disgusting, but for Zhao Ziqiao, who has been exposed to these things since childhood, it is not a matter.

After rummaging through several places, Zhao Ziqiao finally dug up two large earthworms under a garbage heap, and after throwing the two earthworms into the glass bottle, Zhao Ziqiao originally wanted to release the earthworms he had dug up before, but after thinking about it for a while, he took them all home.

Threading the earthworm to the fishing line, Zhao Ziqiao tried to throw the bait out with a fishing rod, and the earthworm bait felt very tactile under the light touch of the fishing line, but Zhao Ziqiao frowned slightly.

He saw that because of the bait, the top part of the rod bent slightly and bounced back, and it stands to reason that this elastic deformation is the most labor-saving state, and if you want to take the rod to fish all day, it can help you save a lot of effort. However, what Zhao Ziqiao wants to catch is not the kind of frog that weighs a few taels at most, but a stone frog that weighs a few catties or a few catties, and the top position of this fishing rod obviously can't bear that kind of weight.

Thinking of this problem, Zhao Ziqiao could only remove the fishing line, and then use a firewood knife to cut it from the thickness of a little thumb, according to Zhao Ziqiao's imagination, this thick bamboo should be able to bear the weight of those stone frogs.

The fishing rod that was cut off suddenly became a lot shorter, and it was no longer soft and elastic, like a straight wooden stick, but fortunately, Zhao Ziqiao didn't have to fish all day, and he could tolerate this defect.

Everything was ready, the game opened, the portal slowly emerged, and Zhao Ziqiao stepped into the portal with his equipment.

On the other side of the portal, there were raindrops the size of cow's hair floating in the sky, Zhao Ziqiao looked down at the sky, and felt that the rain would not go down, and it would stop soon, so he stepped on the tricycle and walked forward.

When passing by the place where the net was fishing, Zhao Ziqiao obviously saw that there was a splash from the fishing net, and it was obvious that a fish had hit the net, but now was not the time to collect the fish.

As soon as he walked out of the forest, the grass and trees in the wetland shook, and there was a series of paddling sounds, and Zhao Ziqiao, who listened to it, couldn't wait to jump directly into the wetland to catch stone frogs.

But this matter is not in a hurry, with the movement just now, the stone frogs are hidden, Zhao Ziqiao can't catch them even if he wants to fish now, and at this time the earthworms in his bag will work.

Zhao Ziqiao grabbed the earthworm and threw it into the wetland, sat quietly on a rock, and waited for the stone frog to come out to feed.

Maybe it was because I had never seen food falling from the sky, and the stone frog that was originally frightened and hiding, saw that there was suddenly a pile of food around the area where it was hiding, and after waiting for a while, after seeing that there was no danger around, there was a bold stone frog, jumping in front of the earthworms that were looking for a place to hide.

The stone frog jumped up to the earthworms, rushed its head forward, took its mouth in its mouth, and one earthworm fell into its mouth, and after eating this one, it turned its body again, pointed its head at the other, and began to enjoy the food.

Zhao Ziqiao looked at the bold stone frog, laughed silently, threw the fishing rod in his hand around it, and stirred up the bait with his hands.

I don't know if the stone frog saw that the bait on the fishing line was large, and gave up the 'little things' in front of it, or Zhao Ziqiao controlled the bait and successfully attracted its attention, only to see the stone frog jump and fall directly in front of the bait.

Seeing the stone frog jumping in front of the bait, Zhao Ziqiao couldn't help but hold his breath, anyone who has fished frogs knows that the bigger the frog, the more cautious it is about the swallowing of the bait, and it is often a bite and spit out, rather than biting to death.

However, Zhao Ziqiao's worries were unnecessary, after the stone frog jumped next to the bait, when Zhao Ziqiao controlled the bait upward, it was like a warrior and bit the bait to death.

Zhao Ziqiao tried to lift it up, wanting to see if he really bit it to death, or if he would spit out if he bit it, but he didn't expect him to mention it like this, and he actually suspended the upper body of the stone frog in the air.

"There is!" Seeing this, Zhao Ziqiao's eyes lit up, but as soon as the strength in his hand was loosened, as soon as the stone frog landed, he was ready to bite the bait and run back, and the fishing line attached to the fishing rod was straightened by it.

"Come on!" With this feeling, Zhao Ziqiao was already very sure that this stone frog was really bitten to death and didn't let his mouth go, so he immediately lifted it up vigorously.

I thought that I would directly lift the stone frog over, but I didn't expect to let the stone frog's whole body hang in the air for a while, Zhao Ziqiao thought to himself that there was no drama now, and he didn't think that this stone frog belonged to Wang Ba, and he didn't spit out after landing, and ran back harder.

Zhao Ziqiao looked at this stupid stone frog, and really wanted to laugh a few times, since you don't let go of your mouth, then he is not polite, the horse took a step, his body fell back, and an inch burst out, and the whole stone frog was dragged directly to his side by him.

Zhao Ziqiao, who was supposed to operate the fishing rod with one hand and the pocket with the other, didn't expect the stone frog to be too heavy, so that his movements were directly deformed, and the stone frog hung in the air, and he couldn't find the location of the stone frog.

In order to prevent this stupid stone frog from running away from his hand, Zhao Ziqiao's heart was horizontal, and he loosened the fishing rod, and after the stone frog landed, he took the bag and covered it directly.

The frightened stone frog was covered by the bag, and finally let go, but in a panic, he threw himself into the net and bumped left and right in the bag.

Looking at the constantly changing shape of the bag, Zhao Ziqiao smiled and said to himself: "At this time, you should give me a sound effect!" ”
