Chapter 579: Rescue
Since Hong Tao came to Brazil, he has only drunk 2 kinds of beer, the first time he drank it in a restaurant in Manaus, the brand is called Ambev, its taste is very international, no different from Budweiser, Hong Tao is not very impressed after drinking.
It is said that this Ambef beer ranks very high on the Maison, at least within the top 10, and it is a brand that is native to Brazil and sells well in South America.
However, there is another local brand in Amazonas that is more popular with locals, called XINGU. This kind of beer is the only beer in the hotel in Anaya, it has a strong taste, it is a cellar-type dark beer, and unlike the bitter dark beer that the Germans love to drink, its brewing raw material is added to sugar cane juice, so it is not very bitter, and it has a faint caramel taste, which is deeply loved by Hong Tao.
"Why don't I teach you how to fish, there are exactly three fishing rods, one for each of us." Hong Tao pondered that just drinking beer and chatting estimated that it wouldn't last long, and the two nurses had to go back to sleep, although they couldn't eat themselves, but it was not a bad thing to have two girls with them.
"Okay, you teach me first!" Ainia is interested in everything she plays, and when she heard Hong Tao's idea, she immediately grabbed the longest fishing rod, and it is estimated that in her eyes, the longer the fishing rod, the more powerful it is.
"Okay, you go teach Ainia, I don't have to teach, I will do it myself, but you have to help me tie the hook." Sara didn't compete with Ania for Hong Tao's coach, and people didn't need it.
"Oh? You can also fish? Okay, let's have a competition, whoever catches a fish will have to drink the other two, how about it? "Hong Tao is quite surprised, this Sara actually knows how to fish, this is easier to do, anyway, dry drinking is also drinking, it is better to change it to a colorful head. It's also fun to drink.
"It's not fair, Ainia can't fish, so I'm on the same side as Ainia and you, it's reasonable for you to be on your own, no matter who catches a fish between the two of us, you have to drink, you get on the fish, we two drink!" Sara was quite righteous and didn't forget to take care of her colleagues.
"OK, come on, you can use this fishing rod. You go teach Ainia and I'll tie another rig, you can fish first. Hong Tao didn't care about winning or losing at all, he just coaxed them to play, so as not to have nothing to talk about.
"By the way, there is another rule to say in advance, piranas and bagu fish don't count, and catching these two kinds of fish doesn't count as results!" Just as Sara and Ainia were muttering together, Hong Tao suddenly remembered a very important question. Hurry up and say it in advance, or he will lose.
"If you don't count, you won't count, you're going to lose!" Ania didn't know what secret she had gotten from Sarah, and she smiled like a little fox who had stolen a chicken.
To say that this Sara is really good at fishing. It can be seen from the posture of her picking up the fishing rod that when she shook the rod and threw the bait diagonally, Hong Tao immediately felt as if she had been fooled. This blonde nurse has been playing lure not only fishing, but has probably been playing lure for a long time, and she is very skilled at throwing rods. Even more skilled than Hong Tao.
Hong Tao their fishing position is the starboard side of the boat, it is said that this is not a good place to play Lua, because the two sides of the boat are aisles, although the width is enough, but the top of the head is a two-layer deck, when throwing the rod can not use the easiest way to split, so the height is not enough, you have to throw the fishing rod diagonally or horizontally, to avoid the obstacles overhead.
In fact, the bow and stern of the boat are good places for fishing, there is enough space there, there are no obstacles overhead, especially the stern, and there is a small platform very close to the water, so it is easy to get fish on the boat after getting on the big fish. But the bow and stern of the boat have been occupied by Silva and Silias, who are the main force of fishing, and Hong Tao can only be regarded as a guide who leads the way, and he must not go to compete with the master for a position.
Compared with the overhead casting rod, the tilt or horizontal casting posture is more difficult, because it is not only necessary to control the distance of the bait, but also to control the left and right position of the cast bait, and it is difficult to point where to hit without long-term practice.
Sarah's casting posture is very graceful, she did not wave her big arms, but with a flick of her wrist, the bait split straight into a parabola and landed on the water more than 20 meters away. It's this shaking skill, Hong Tao can't do it, he hasn't played Lua for a long time, although he has the foundation to play the rod throwing, but it is still difficult to point where to hit, so he has to aim a little.
After the first rod was thrown, Sara handed the rod to Ania and taught her how to shake the crank of the reel to reel the line at a certain speed, and how to lift the rod slightly to feel the strength of the fish. Hong Tao didn't dare to put up the master's shelf anymore, so he quickly took advantage of this time to tie up his fishing rig, and then walked a few meters away from them and threw his bait out.
When playing mahjong, there is a saying in Beijing: not afraid that novices will not be able to play, but afraid of novices to come to good cards. This means that many people who don't know how to play mahjong are not good at playing mahjong, but they are often very lucky, as long as they don't make mistakes, they are not necessarily slower than mahjong veterans.
Now Hong Tao has also encountered this situation, although Ainia basically can't fish, but her luck is too good. After a few practices, she was just able to barely throw the bait out of the lure, and she couldn't even control the left and right directions, so she actually got on the fish, and it wasn't the ubiquitous piranha and bagu fish, it was a grinning katyura, not big, just over a foot long, but it was also an effective fish.
"Haha I've caught a fish! I've caught a fish! Drink! You're losing! "Ainia doesn't know what to do without fishing, don't look at her low head, her strength is really not small, just by shaking the reel, she pulled the desperately struggling fish to the side of the boat, and then didn't care about the fishing rod, jumping and cheering, a bit like watching football.
"Where are your fish? What about fish? Hong Tao was quite helpless at first, and was about to go to serve the wine bottle, when he suddenly found that Ainia had thrown the fishing rod on the deck, and he laughed again.
"Fish, hanging on the hook! If you still want to play tricks, I'll show you! Seeing Hong Tao's smiling appearance, Ainia thought that Hong Tao was going to play tricks, so she turned around and copied the fishing rod and shook the handle vigorously.
"Don't move, be careful!" Hong Tao originally wanted to tease this little girl, and he knew very well that there were no more fish on the hook.
Generally, when fishing for this ferocious fish, you can't loosen the line like you can catch ordinary freshwater fish, and you have to keep it tight, because these fish have a lot of teeth and bones in their mouths, and it is difficult for the hook to pierce the mouth of the fish directly, and many times it is stuck on those teeth and bones.
If the line is tightened, the hook will catch the teeth or bones, and once the line is loosened, the hook will come off because the barbs of the hook are not stuck and the fish struggles a little more. Ainia's situation at this time is that the fishing line is not tight, she thinks that if she catches the fish, she will catch it, but she doesn't know that there is still a fish in the road.
In fact, Hong Tao doesn't need to be so nervous just because the fish has run away, just fish again, and you have to drink the beer yourself, so you can't play tricks with a little girl who has just learned to fish. However, Ainia's next action made Hong Tao unable to calm down, and she was shaking the crank of the reel vigorously.
At this time, there is no fish on the hook, if the speed of shaking is too fast, the hook and the lead sinker rely on inertia, it is likely to be thrown up from under the side of the boat, and see that the hook sometimes can't hook the mouth of the fish, but once thrown on the human body, the hook meat is a spirit, the most terrible thing is to throw it on the face, whether it is hooked on the meat or not, or stabbed in the eyes, it is very dangerous, the light is broken, and the heavy will have to be disabled.
Hong Tao's reaction was very fast, and when this sentence was shouted, he had already moved towards Ainia's side. But Ainia moved faster, and the hook flipped up directly from under the side of the ship with a cold glow in the night light, and passed through the door of Ainia in front of her.
"Close your eyes!" Hong Tao only had time to shout such a word, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to block Ainia's face.
"Smack! …… There were only two successive crunching sounds, and Ainia, who was already stunned, was standing in place with her eyes closed and holding a fishing rod, and the hook with a lead sinker actually bounced out of Hong Tao's hand, and then hit the railing on the side of the boat, and became entangled with the railing.
"The Virgin Mary! It's too dangerous! Ainia, how are you? Sara actually stood closest to Ainia, but she had been paying attention to the fishing rod in her hand, and did not pay attention to Ainia and Hong Tao's actions, until Hong Tao shouted not to move, but at that time the fish hook had already flew, and she was also stunned, just watching the fish hook fly towards Ainia.
"I ...... I'm fine, what's wrong just now? Why do you want me to close my eyes? Although Ainia is the perpetrator, she is still in the dark at the moment, neither saw the flying hook, nor did she see Hong Tao stretch out his hand to cover her, she is really a good soldier, obey orders and listen to commands, when Hong Tao asked him to close his eyes, she did not delay for a second, and closed her eyes directly, until Sara ran over and hugged her face to see, and then opened her eyes.
"Isn't there anything wrong with your hands? Show me! Strange...... Do you know kung fu? Chinese Kung Fu? Sara picked up the flashlight, carefully shone Ainia's face, and after confirming that there was no injury at all, she took Hong Tao's right hand again, and looked at it several times, but she didn't find any wounds, she didn't believe the facts in front of her a little.
"I'm Bruce Lee's apprentice...... Bruce Lee, do you know the way? Hong Tao was actually scared into a cold sweat, but as soon as the matter passed, he was not so nervous, and deliberately put on a martial arts pose. (To be continued......)
