Leaving Qian Gang's house, Yang Zi did not go home directly, but drove to a small river about ten meters wide in the middle of the town. Because some of the daily sewage of the town's residents is discharged into the river, after a long time, a lot of sludge has accumulated in the river, and the river water also emits a foul smell. During the day, there is no living creature in the river except for aquatic plants, but this changes a lot at night.

By chance, Yang Zi found that there were many scavenging animals active in this river at night, including catfish. This kind of fish basically likes to hide in secluded places during the day and stay motionless, unless there are small fish and shrimp that take the initiative to send them to the door. But at night they start to be active, and the tentacles around their mouths can replace their eyes to search for prey at night, so Yang Zi came here tonight to fight their idea.

took out the pole throwing flashlight and the pork liver cut into strips from the trunk of the car, Yang Zi took out a set of string hooks and hung the chopped pork liver after preparing the rod, and then closed the car door and slowly looked up along the river.

He put the line of throwing the rod relatively long, and he took the rod in his right hand from the bank of the river and threw the hook full of pork liver into the river and dragged it slowly, and with a flashlight in his left hand to check the underwater situation from time to time. Summer nights are the most active time for catfish, and Yang Zi didn't go far before he saw a twenty or thirty centimeter catfish swimming slowly near the hook.

He carefully controlled the rod and moved the hook to its vicinity, and the fierce catfish did not hesitate to take the initiative to send it to the door when he saw that there was food, and swallowed the hook with the pork liver in one bite. As soon as Yang Zi saw the fish on the hook, he immediately lifted the rod and stabbed it, and the catfish in the water was shocked to be fooled.

The sharp pain in its mouth made it panic and began to scurry around in the water with a string of hooks, and of course Yang Zi would not let it get its wish. In order to avoid the hook hanging to the bottom, he directly pulled the fish to the river with brute force, anyway, the rod and fishing rig in his hand are specially used by him to catch big fish, and the hook of the line group is relatively thick. Pity this catfish of about a pound was forcibly pulled to the shore by Yang Zi and slipped around for a while, and then slipped directly to the shore, and after hanging a live fish buckle on it, Yang Zi sounded in his mind with a hint that the task was completed.

When his goal was achieved, he did not embarrass the poor fish in his hand, and withdrew the buckle and threw it into the river and let it go.

Seeing that it was already very late, Yang Zi, who had arrangements for tomorrow, didn't stay long, and went home directly after putting away the fishing rod. After sorting out the equipment for the next day a little, Yang Zi went to bed and began to sleep.

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Yang Zi got up and took his things and went out directly. The place he was going to today was a medium-sized reservoir nearby, this reservoir was nothing special, the water quality was average, and the fish conditions were not very good.

However, he basically didn't have any requirements for the fish he wanted to catch today, and he only came here because he was close, because he was here to shake the meal today. Yes, "throwing" the meal strips, speaking of this fishing method, Yang Zi still saw it from some old people. There are frightening quantities of such things in any reservoir, and it is difficult and inefficient to catch them in ordinary ways.

Yang Zi's method is different, he can catch more than ten catties a day in a reservoir with many food strips. The method is also very simple, a casting rod and a reel, connected to a string of special hooks. The hooks are nearly a meter long and have a number of small glow-in-the-dark hooks attached to a cylindrical perforated trough underneath the hook.

Put a little corn bran or oil bran in the trough and throw it directly to the surface of the water like a rod, and the real thing in the trough will gather the food sticks. As soon as there are too many of these fish, they will grab each other's food, and then the small hooks on the strings will become their targets.

With this fishing method, a rod can sometimes be thrown down several fish at a time, Yang Zi has caught a maximum of seven fish in one rod before, and he does not have a lot of pressure on the challenge task he will complete today.

After arriving at the reservoir, Yang Zi took the fishing gear and chose a relatively empty fishing spot, and then began to prepare. Tie the line set, hang the hook on the trough, and then add a little water to the prepared oil bran and rub it evenly, which is to prevent the oil bran from being too dry and blown away by the wind in the middle of the air.

When everything was ready, he filled the trough with oil bran, and after looking at the position, he turned his rod and flew to the distant water with a "boom". After more than ten seconds after the trough fell into the water, Yang Zi began to slowly reel in the line, this process should not be too urgent, otherwise the fish would not be able to catch up with the hook. There was no fish on the first rod, which was normal, because the meal bars had not yet gathered, and Yang Zi continued to add oil bran to the trough and threw it in the direction just now.

This time, when he reeled the line, he felt a slight vibration from the tip of the rod, and it was supposed that a fish had taken the bait. Sure enough, when Yang Zi pulled up the fishing rig, he saw two meal sticks less than ten centimeters hanging on it and kept struggling.

Yang Zi glanced at the progress in the task panel after throwing them into the fish guard, and nodded with satisfaction, since it counts, it seems that it will not be difficult to complete the task today. In the next time, Yang Zi began to repeat the action of throwing the rod and collecting the fish, and at most there were 8 fish on one rod. And today's fish rate is much higher than before, and it is basically not very unsuccessful.

On average, about three fish came in every two minutes, and by the time he had completed the challenge of 200 fish by nine o'clock. This was more than an hour earlier than he expected, mainly because his rate of catching fish was a bit high now.

However, what made him feel unhappy was that when he caught the 100th meal stick, the system prompted him that the experience gained for every 100 of the same fish species in a day would be halved in turn, which made Yang Zi, who originally wanted to use this method to brush up on experience for a few days, had to finally give up.

Seeing that the task was completed early today, there was no profit from fishing any further, and he didn't bring any other rods out today. Yang Zi packed up his things and clicked on the task in his mind to complete, and then looked at the fishing level that had been upgraded to level 4 and the deposit of 33 gold and grinned.

After finding that the character level has also met the requirements, he also gave it a point, reaching three times the physical attributes of ordinary people, he has the idea of wanting to find someone to go it alone, but unfortunately as a single Wang, his strong attribute does not play a role, and only when he moves things can he give him some comfort.

After reading the attribute bar, he took a look at the new quest content and the mall opened by the character level 5, and the advanced task of level 4 is to catch a precious fish species that is not bred in captivity. The task reward of up to 60 gold and the high amount of experience made Yang Zi's mouth water, but it was a pity that the precious level fish really didn't have a clue.

Although he also has a few guesses in his heart, he still has no bottom in his heart whether he can qualify. As for the mall, there is not much difference between it and the game, he shook his head and looked at the time of his mobile phone after buying a green bamboo fishing rod with gold coins, and now it is only half past nine, and he picked up the fishing tackle and walked to the car to prepare to go home.

When he was halfway to the car, the phone suddenly rang, and he took out his mobile phone to see that it was Qian Gang calling. Yang Zi pressed the answer button and didn't speak, when he heard Qian Gang over there wailing loudly: "Yang Zi, where are you?" Come over and help me, Li Zhen's turtle king bastard bet unruly, and obviously said that he would fight with me alone, but today I don't know where to call a person who has been guiding him on the side.

I went to him to theorize, and he actually said that he only stipulated that he couldn't ask you for help, and the others shouted whatever I wanted. His uncle's time and a half, where will I call someone to go, me. It's been half an hour, it's still empty on my side, and he's already starting to fish. Yang Zi, you have to come over quickly and give my brother a way to think of a way, if you lose money, it's a trivial matter, the main thing is that you can't get by by bragging about it in front of you. ”

Yang Zi shook his head after hearing what Qian Gang said: "Brother Zhen has said that you are not allowed to ask me for help, so why should I come over to help you?" Isn't this a violation of the rules, and I can't help it. ”

"I don't care, it's obvious that this kid gave me a trap first, don't blame me for asking you for help later, I'm in this small reservoir where we fished for the first time. Come over here and help my buddy, if I win this bet, how about I'll give you a set of fish that is exactly the same as mine? Qian Gang may be a little anxious, thinking of a way to move Yang Zi, you must know that the price of his set of fishing tackle can be more than 100,000 yuan.

This is said to be sent, Yang Zi couldn't help but smile bitterly. Fishing tackle? That's right, it's fishing tackle! He slammed the steering wheel, and suddenly he really remembered a solution. "Brother, I've thought of a way to help you, but I'm not sure if I can win. Would you like to give it a try? , If you can, I'll rush over immediately, and when I get there, if Brother Zhen asks me, I'll say I'll send you something. I don't have any contact with you, I just give you things. What do you think? ”

"No matter what you do, you can fix it for me first, and I will cooperate with you. What are you sending me? Bait? I made the bait according to the recipe you told me last time, but I never got a bite from the hook. ”

"That bait is good for carp fishing, and it's normal for you to run out of mouth for a while. I'm not sending you bait, I'm sending you a fishing rod. They won't let them give you the bait, and when I bring it to you, you can just use the rod I gave you to fish. But you change the bait you're fishing with a pull bait. Don't change the ratio, just put some water and brushed powder. ”

Yang Zi explained the next way to Qian Gang. "Fishing rods? What's the use of changing the fishing rod? Is your rod better than mine? Brother, don't fool me! Hurry up and figure it out for me. ”

Qian Gang was a little anxious when he heard that Yang Zi was going to send him a fishing rod, what is the use of a fishing rod no matter how good it is? Isn't it true that you still can't catch fish with a rod of more than 10,000 yuan, and your fishing rod of less than 100 yuan is better than mine? Yang Zi listened to Qian Gang's suspicion and smiled: "Don't worry, I can't cheat you." You can use my fishing rod to fish later, as long as Brother Zhen's side is not particularly good, your chances of winning are still very big. I'll be here right away, so I won't talk to you about driving as much as I concentrate. ”

After speaking, he didn't wait for Qian Gang to have a full of questions, stepped on the accelerator and began to speed towards home, after arriving home, he took out the 4.5 rod, attached the attributes of the green bamboo fishing rod to it, and then turned around and went out to the small reservoir last time.

Because it was not very far away, Yang Zi rushed to the reservoir after about ten minutes, found Qian Gang's location and parked the car, and then took the rod and walked towards the fishing spot they bet on. "Yang Zi, why did you rush over? It can't be that kid Qian Gang who asked you to come over to help, right? Then you are not allowed to go over, you said it last night, you can't take sides. ”

Yang Zi was only halfway there, and Li Zhen, who saw him coming over, began to shout. Although he has never fished with Yang Zi, he definitely has two brushes in terms of Qian Gang's admiration for him. On his side, he finally seized an opportunity to get Qian Gang, but he couldn't let Yang Zi mix it up.

"Haha, Brother Zhen is early! I'm not here to help, I'm just sending him a pole. He just called me and said that the fishing rod he brought today was not very good, and asked me to send him one to replace it to try the effect. Brother Zhang, you can bring it for me, I won't go to Qian Gang's place, lest Brother Zhen finish saying that I don't follow the rules. ”

Yang Zi ran over to say hello to Li Zhen and handed over the fishing rod, and behind Li Zhen, a man in his thirties who was a little tanned took it first, looked at the rod, and handed it to Zhang Bo next to him after finding that there was no problem. Li Zhen saw that Yang Zizhen couldn't go to Qian Gang's side, and felt that there should be no problem, so he nodded and asked Zhang Bo to send a rod to Qian Gang.

The pole has been delivered, and Yang Zi, who has nothing to do, chatted with Lao Wang, who was sitting on the side. The gambling fight between Qian Gang and Li Zhen has begun for almost an hour, and the two sides agreed to catch until 12 o'clock at noon, and whoever catches the heaviest fish will win.

Originally, Lao Wang was guarding Qian Gang's side, but after staying for more than half an hour and not seeing him go fishing, he sat down on Li Zhen's side. The man next to Li Zhen should be the helper he hired, and the fishing position and bait he chose seemed to be okay.

Although Brother Zhen didn't have a rod at this time, he could still catch one or two fish from time to time. And he had already caught a carp of more than a pound, no wonder Qian Gang, who knew the news, would go to him for help.

The fishing positions of the two were not next to each other, Qian Gang should have been on the other side of this inlet, and Yang Zi couldn't see his fishing spot when he turned a corner over there. However, after getting the rod he sent, Qian Gang greeted Yang Zi loudly, and Yang Zi also responded when he heard it.

Then he stood aside and watched them fish while chatting with the old king on the side. Time passed slowly, and it was already half past ten, and in another hour and a half their gambling time would be over. Li Zhen, who was a lot ahead, was obviously in a good mood, and he was chatting with Yang Zi and them while fishing.

Obviously, I feel that there is no suspense about winning or losing this gambling battle, and I am still discussing with Yang Zi where to go to sea when the time comes.

They were chatting lively, and suddenly Qian Gang shouted from the other side of the inlet. Listening to the sound, it seems that he has hit a big fish, and he is about to get a net for him. Sure enough, it didn't take long for Zhang Bo to run over to report the situation.

Just now, Qian Gang also hit a carp of more than a catty, and he was having fun there at this moment. Li Zhen breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that it was just a carp of the same size as him, he was really afraid that Qian Gang's character would explode and catch a fish of several catties, in which case he might lose.

Now there are other trash fish of more than a pound in addition to the carp in his fish protection, and the advantage is still very great. Turning his head and glancing at Yang Zi, he didn't know why Li Zhen always felt that the fish that Qian Gang caught should have something to do with the person in front of him. But he didn't think about it, so then he began to concentrate on catching fish, and he couldn't be too careless, if Qian Gang's side really had another shit luck, he wouldn't be able to win.

It's a pity that he has just breathed a sigh of relief on his side, and Qian Gang has started shouting again, shouting loudly to Zhang Bo to come over and copy the fish for him. Li Zhenke couldn't sit down anymore, he was a little anxious, he kept turning his head to look at Qian Gang, waiting for Zhang Bo to bring back the news, and even Lao Wang ran to Qian Gang's side to see the excitement.

Yang Zi also breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the fishing rod should be powerful. And this effect is a bit unexpected for him, he actually hit fish one after another, but this should have something to do with Qian Gang's nest for so long. It didn't take long for Zhang Bo to rush over from there, and it was another carp of more than a catty, and now the results of the two sides should be almost tied.

Brother Zhen, who knew the answer, finally put his mind at ease, and there was a comparison, the fat man didn't know what shit luck he was taking, and he actually caught two carps in a row, and then he had to be serious. I have an obvious advantage in the fishing spot here, and the fish mouth basically hasn't stopped much, so it's impossible to catch him. Thinking of this, Li Zhen couldn't help but turn his head to look at Yang Zi again, that is, after he came, Qian Gang began to fish continuously. Is this really just a coincidence? His mind was full of questions.

"Hey, Brother Zhen, why are you looking at me like this, I didn't do anything except send a fishing rod. I haven't even seen Qian Gang's face, you don't suspect that I'm helping him, right? I can't help if I want to! Yang Zi was a little unbearable by Li Zhen's view, and sneered and preached at him.

Li Zhen thought about it after listening to what Yang Zi said, and nodded, there is really no place that can help Qian Gang, unless Yang Zi can have superpowers, but unfortunately he doesn't know that his guess is very close to the truth.

Time slowly passed for more than half an hour, and Li Zhen was unhurriedly on some small miscellaneous fish. It's good that there can be such an opening near noon, but there has been no movement on Qian Gang's side. Li Zhen, who had slowly settled down, watched the drift in the water with all his attention, and had entered the realm of selflessness.

It was already past eleven o'clock, and it was only about half an hour before the bet ended. With the advantage, he was not in a hurry at this time, and he looked at the mouth in the water and mentioned it again, but this time he didn't mention it. It seems that the fish in the water should not be small, so he hurriedly beckoned the buddy next to him to take the net and carefully slipped up the fish. Four or five minutes later, a carp weighing more than three catties was copied from the water by him, and he couldn't help but smile happily in his heart. Haha, I'm the winner in this gamble after all.

However, God seemed to like to joke with him, and the carp on his side had just entered the house, and Qian Gang had begun to shout loudly again. And this time it was not only Qian Gang, but also the exclamations of Lao Wang and Zhang Bo. Li Zhen was about to call his helper to come over to see what was going on, but he saw Qian Gang carrying Yang Zigang from the fishing rod he gave him and walking towards the inlet on his side.

The rod had been bent into a huge bow by him, and it looked like it was in danger of breaking at any moment. Qian Gang, on the other hand, was holding the fishing rod in his hand with both hands, trying his best to control the direction of the fish, trying not to make it swim to the middle. I don't know how big the fish in the water is, but looking at Qian Gang's posture and the occasional huge splash in the water, this fish will definitely not be small.

Li Zhen looked at Qian Gang, who was in high spirits, and then looked at the fish protection in his water, and finally shook his head. From the helper's hand, he asked for a net and rushed towards Qian Gang, he was afraid that Qian Gang's fish would not be enough to copy the net, so he would go over to help. Yang Zi saw that Li Zhendu rushed over, and it shouldn't matter if he went over at this time, so he also walked over there.

Qian Gang slipped the fish in the water for more than ten minutes, and it was almost twelve o'clock before the big fish finally appeared. I saw a dazzling golden flash in the water, and a golden-red carp weighing about fourteen or fifteen catties slowly emerged from the water.

Everyone exclaimed in unison: "What a big fish! It's so beautiful! Qian Gang slowly pulled the exhausted carp to the shore, and Zhang Bo and Li Zhen worked together to carry the fish in the water to the shore.

At this time, the time was just towards twelve o'clock, and Lao Wang gave the money to win the gambling battle after deciding the winner, but instead of sneering and sarcastically mocking Li Zhen as usual, he pulled him to thank him, and then hugged the big carp and asked them to go over and take pictures.

Obviously, being able to catch such a big carp this time has exceeded the meaning of gambling in his heart, and he didn't want Li Zhen, who failed to bet, was depressed and affected his friendship, so he deliberately gave the other party a step to ease, which is probably the emotional intelligence of the fat man.

Everyone took a few photos around Qian Gang and asked Li Zhen to call the buddy who took a few photos, and then Qian Gang put the carp back, saying that it was not easy for this fish to be willing to take a photo with him, so it was better to let it go home early, which made everyone laugh again.

Next, everyone packed up their things and prepared to go home, and Qian Gang was in a good mood and pulled them to find a farmhouse to invite them to a big meal. After going in and ordering a large table of dishes, everyone began to talk about this morning's experience while eating, and Qian Gang's true nature, which he had endured for so long, was finally revealed, and he kept chattering there.

Yang Zi remembered what Li Zhen said last night, and looked at Qian Gang, and sure enough, he could only see the whites of his eyes. The eyeballs were already looking up at the ceiling. "Ahem, where did I put my rod just now? You'll remember to give it back to me later, or I won't have a rod to fish tomorrow. Yang Zi, who was a little unhappy with him, asked Qian Gang.

"Hey! Our buddy can still be greedy for your fishing rod, don't worry, your rod looks a little old to me. Anyway, you only spent about a hundred dollars, so don't ask for it. Brother, I'll buy you a new one and return it to you, just buy my kind of exactly the same one. What do you think? Interesting enough, right? Qian Gang heard Yang Zi's words and immediately ran to him to flatteringly, and patted Yang Zi's shoulder with a look of righteousness and pride, clearly not wanting Yang Zi to continue to talk about it.

"Don't, I'm a poor man who uses that rod to show his feelings, and I won't be able to adapt to you if you give me a new one. And don't forget what you promised me before! I don't want the things you gave me anymore, you can give me back the rod. Yang Zi shook his head on the surface, but refused with a snickering in his heart.

He knew that Qian Gang must be reluctant to give it to him at this time, it was not that he was unwilling to give it to him, but he still needed to use it now, and he would give him the novice fishing rod later, and when he had money, even if he gave Qian Gang a better one, it would not be a problem. He deliberately teased Qian Gang, so he deliberately put on a reluctant look.

"Yang Zi, how can the things I have said not count! Don't worry, I'll go to the city tomorrow and give you a whole set. No, I'll call that there will be the delivery later. It's definitely better than your previous set of broken equipment, and as for that fishing rod, I found out today that fishing rod really has a lot of love with me. Don't you know, when I put on that rod and catch a fish, it's like a divine help, you see, this morning. Right? This shows that this pole is definitely a good talent in my hands! Anyway, you're not short of such a pole, so you can give it to my brother as a souvenir, right? ”

Qian Gang changed his words in front of Yang Zi with a shy face, and even the excuse that the rod was destined for him came out. , that rod has added so much hit rate and strength, of course you use it like a god. As for fate... Hehe!

"What's the matter, Yang Zi, what else is the reputation of the fishing rod you gave to Qian Gang today? Okay! I'll just say, Qian Gang, this kid hasn't usually caught a decent fish. Not to mention more than ten catties, those who can get a few catties have to ask God to worship Buddha for a long time. So you're really helping him! Let's talk about it, I don't just ask how you can help him, and I don't care about the bet, but you can't favor one over the other with that fishing rod or something, at least one person has to prepare one for us. ”

After listening to the conversation between Yang Zi and Qian Gang, I always felt that there was a greasy Li Zhen in it, and immediately asked Yang Zi to share the blessings.

"Okay! There are all of them, but this kind of rod is relatively rare, so we just play with our own people, remember not to pass it on. I'll go back and get ready, and I'll bring you the size you need. Yang Zi, who knew that he was speechless, didn't dare to offend the anger of the public at this time, and hurriedly agreed. Even Qian Gang slipped to Lao Wang's side and hugged them at this time, without the slightest hint of the consciousness he was begging for just now.

After getting a satisfactory answer, everyone didn't embarrass Yang Zi anymore, but shifted the topic to the fishing rod, and asked Qian Gang, the first user of the rod, the difference, why he could become so powerful in the morning.

Of course, Qian Gang couldn't answer, and he felt that after holding this rod, it seemed that it would be easier to catch fish, and it would be stronger and stronger. After turning his head to see that Yang Zi had no intention of standing up for him to relieve the siege, he could only explain a few words casually, and he didn't say a reason, but just asked them to use it themselves to feel it in the future.

Then everyone began to push their glasses and drink wine, although it was just beer, but everyone still drank in a very atmospheric atmosphere. Especially Qian Gang, the braggart king, followed Lao Wang and them to fight, which was full of jokes.

After an hour or two of lunch, everyone still felt unsatisfied, but Yang Zi needed to go back to work in the store. So everyone didn't go any further, and made an appointment to find a good place to catch fish for a day when they had time. Yang Zi, who was full of food and drink, didn't return home after they were separated, and went directly to the store to start taking over.
