Chapter 035: Hurry up and take the bait
The next day, Ru Xuan got up early, didn't even have breakfast, only took two freshly heated steamed buns and carried the packed blue cloth package, ready to go out.
"Sister, where are you going?" Qiao Hui saw that Ru Xuan's face was full of spring breeze, and the corners of her mouth were full of thick smiles, so she pursed her lips, and her eyes were full of obscurity that could not be dissolved.
is also a rough palace maid who entered the palace together, and some people can climb the high branches to be at ease, but they can only be sent in this Huanyi Bureau, such a big gap, Qiaohui is naturally sad in her heart.
This is just like an exam, everyone is also working hard to write, but if someone hands in the paper in advance, it is inevitable that they will feel panicked.
Qiaohui at this time is this psychology.
"Just go out for a walk." Ru Xuan naturally didn't know what Qiao Hui was thinking, she was only thinking about today's arrangement, and went out with a small tune, and when she left, she didn't forget to tell Qiao Hui: "I may not come back for lunch." ”
"Oh." Qiaohui was stunned for a moment, Ru Xuan had already walked away, and she could only swallow her stomach if she wanted to ask what was going on.
Don't you want to say anything?
Qiaohui lost her mind, but her eyes were already full of mist, and she couldn't get rid of it, but she bit her lower lip and barely let her tears fall.
Here, Ru Xuan was happy all the way, jumping to the old place of Huiming Lake, and spread out the prepared tools one by one.
Today's Ru Xuan didn't bring pen and ink, let alone paper, and the stuffed package carried some long and short things.
A few bamboo poles with good toughness, a sewing needle that had been bent, a lump of coarse cloth torn into thin strips that served as ropes, a fire breaker to make a fire, a knife, an earthworm, and a few fist-sized stones.
Unfolding things in turn, Ru Xuan bit one end of the cloth strip, quickly spliced the two bamboo pole segments with one hand, tied them together end to end, and after the cloth strip was wound a few times, a perfect bow was tied. Three or four times like this, a few bamboo poles, has become a long bamboo pole.
Ru Xuan folded her hands vigorously, but there was no sound, and there was no sign of loosening at the joint, and she was sure that the bamboo could indeed bear a certain weight, so she tied the sewing needle with thread to the top of the bamboo pole.
took out an earthworm that had been dug up last night, Ru Xuan pulled off a third of it, hung it on the sewing needle, and then waved her arm and threw the sewing needle and earthworm far into the middle of the lake.
Looking at the position of the falling water, Ru Xuan was still very satisfied, there was a certain distance from the shore, but it did not exceed the area where the fish were feeding, and the fish should be relatively easy to take the bait.
Next, just wait quietly for the fish to take the bait, Ru Xuan propped up the bamboo pole on the shore, picked up the steamed buns that were already slightly cool in the package, and chewed them in a big gulp.
Although the probability of success of fishing with a sewing needle is very low, it is absolutely impossible to find a sharp weapon such as claws and hooks in this **, and even this sewing needle is still the largest number that has been hard to find, and it can only be barely done, as for whether you can catch a fish, it really depends on luck.
Judging from the situation that the fish jumped out of the water last time when they threw stones, this fish was also fed before they came, and they retained their habitual movements, so if they want to come fishing, they should not be too unlucky.
Ru Xuan thought as she pulled a small piece of the steamed bun from the steamed bun, kneaded it into pieces, and threw it into the lake. Sure enough, after a while, several fish mouths were exposed, and they ate the minced steamed buns cleanly.
There's a play!
After a burst of ecstasy, Ru Xuan continued to eat some steamed buns into it, and sure enough, she attracted a few more fish and swam around on the shore, waiting for her to throw food.
It's all here, right, let's go eat earthworms!
Ru Xuan smiled slyly, put the remaining steamed buns into her mouth, and stared gloatingly at the group of fish swimming around.
She's not stupid, she's fed all the fish, so how can there be any fish to eat? It's still a good idea to take advantage of this time to prepare for the rest of the work.
Patting the residue of steamed buns on her hands, Ru Xuan burped with satisfaction and moved out the dilapidated bamboo pole that had been secretly hidden here last night.
Section by section, especially the bamboo joints, are smashed open with stones, to prevent the bamboo poles from making an explosion-like sound when they burn, and then talk about a few fist-sized stones in a fairly flat place to encircle the city. In this way, a simple bonfire ring can be made to prevent the flame from leaking out, igniting a large fire, and also gathering the temperature so that the food can be cooked early.
After doing this, Ru Xuan simply sat down, picked up the knife, and slowly sharpened the bamboo slices, ready to make a relatively large skewer, ready to wait for the next string of fish.
Time passed minute by minute, and in the blink of an eye, it was noon, and the skewers had been sharpened and bald, and then sharpened......
But the "fishing rod" remained in place at all, and there was no movement at all. The impatient Ru Xuan lifted the "fish hook" but found that the earthworm had been eaten at some point, so she had no choice but to hang on another one and throw it back into the lake.
Although the sewing needle is bent similar to a fish hook, it is smooth after all, without a barb, and it must be able to be thrown off lightly even if it is eaten by a fish.
The bait was eaten three or four times like this, seeing that an earthworm had been sent to the fish's mouth in vain but there was no gain, no matter how good Ru Xuan's temper was and how calm her personality was, she couldn't hold her breath at this time and stood up, put away the fishing rod and hook, and threw it aside.
"The old lady doesn't believe it, a big living person can't get a fish for you!" Ru Xuan was ruthless, and said that her sleeves and trouser legs were rolled up, her shoes and socks were taken off and thrown aside, she took a bamboo pole out of her hand, sharpened her head and jumped into the lake.
Since you can't catch it, then use the most primitive, direct and barbaric method to tie the fish!
At this time, it was summer, and it was noon, the lake was dried all morning, it was not so cold, the lake was not deep, just to her waist, the lake water was clear, you could see the water and grass at the bottom of the lake swaying with the waves, and the movement of the fish was also clear.
Holding her breath and concentrating, she was cautious, Ru Xuan held back her strength and slowly walked towards a big carp that was swimming around with a swagger.
It didn't seem to be aware of the danger approaching, but the carp was still enjoying the sun and the water, its mouth was open and closed, and its tail was swinging slowly, very pleasantly.
Very good!
Ru Xuan twitched the corners of her mouth slightly, and quietly raised the bamboo pole in her hand.
Prey, it's here......
The heart was simply happy, and Ru Xuan's mind even had a leisurely and happy scene of enjoying the grilled fish.
Pity......
