Chapter 45: Blackwater Fishing (1)

"It's really magnificent" Standing on the shore and looking at the frozen black water in front of him, Ying Yi couldn't help but exclaim.

"Patriarch, how are we going to hunt fish?" Someone asked, puzzled, that it was the first time that anyone present had come to the water's edge during the ice season.

"Wait first!" After Ying Yi finished speaking, he took the lead in Blackwater.

The cold snap of the ice season is really powerful, and the entire water surface is covered with a thick layer of ice, and Ying Yi walked around it and found that the ice under his feet is very solid.

"You can keep up!"

Looking at the people in front of him who were still a little overwhelmed, Ying Yi spoke.

Hearing Ying Yi's words, everyone immediately followed and walked over the frozen black water.

"Boom... Boom...!"

Stepping on the frozen river, everyone seemed very cautious at first, and kept tentatively stomping on the ice under their feet, for fear that the ice under their feet would suddenly crack.

It wasn't until they stomped several times and saw that the ice was not moving at all that they became bold.

In this regard, Ying Yi couldn't help but smile.

For this somewhat mysterious black water, Ying Yi was still a little worried in his heart, and he led everyone to find a place close to the shore.

The reason for being close to the shore is that if there is any danger under the ice, everyone can leave in time, and Ying Yi is afraid that the ice will break in the process of burrowing, even if the ice breaks and falls into the cold water, he can climb up. The center position is different, after all, he may be the only one in his team who is not a landlubber.

After drawing a circle with a diameter of about two or three meters on the ice, Ying Yi turned his head and said, "Let's dig a big hole here." ”

"Good. ”

Hearing Ying Yi's words, everyone nodded and immediately took action.

The people of the Qin tribe were divided into three teams under the command of Ying Yi, and they continued to dig ice in the circle drawn not far away.

Because the hole that was carved out did not need to be very large, and too many people could not be used together, it was just right to divide the people in the team into three teams.

It's just that when everyone in the Qin tribe slammed into it, they found that even the strongest hunting captain, the brute dragon, used the power of the totem, and smashed it, it would only smash a bowl-sized pit, and there was still a long way to go from the lake under the ice.

As for the rest of the Qin tribe, it was even worse.

"This ice is so hard, and it's so thick!"

Looking at the ice as hard as steel, Ying Yi was also a little helpless at this time, and at the same time, his eyes were thoughtful.

No wonder people in the wilderness, in the past did not find this kind of ice season fishing methods, when the ice season comes, basically prepare enough food before the ice season, nest in the nest and do not move, even if you are hungry and run to the water's edge to see such a thick layer of ice, it is estimated that you are desperate, and then leave.

Many thoughts flashed through Yingyi's mind, but they were quickly forgotten again. The most important thing now is to lead the people of the Qin tribe to dig holes and fish, otherwise this ice season will really not survive.

Looking at the brute dragon who was smashing into the ice with one punch, and the others who had spent a long time and had not achieved much success, Ying Yi spoke.

"Everyone, stop for a moment! The ice is too hard and thick, let's try another way. ”

When everyone heard Ying Yi's words, they all stopped what they were doing and looked at Ying Yi.

"Barbarian Dragon, you take a few people to the tribe to get some dry firewood and hay, let's burn it directly!"

After hearing Ying Yi's command, the brute dragon agreed loudly, and then selected five or six people from his hunting party, turned around and returned to the tribe.

Previously, Yingyi didn't expect that the ice layer of the black water in this ice season would be so thick, so the group only brought ice chiseling. If you want to make a fire now, you can only let the brute dragon return to the tribe to fetch it, after all, there is a thick layer of ice on the branches of the trees in the great wilderness of the ice season now.

Seeing that the barbarian dragon returned to the tribe with people, Ying Yi didn't let everyone continue to dig ice. It's been a while since everyone came out, and many people are now frozen, so Yingyi took everyone to start the same way of moving their bodies.

"Run!"

The group began to run on the edge of the black water, and Ying Yi secretly used his perception to perceive the black water during the run, but unfortunately he still found nothing, as if he was hindered by something.

In a few moments, the brute dragon brought several bundles of dry firewood, branches, and hay from the tribe.

But when a bundle of branches and hay was piled on the ice, the crowd began to face another problem.

"The ignition can't be lit!"

Everyone in the Great Wilderness basically uses a kind of flint to make a fire, which is often said to "hit the stone to make a fire", but at the extremely low temperature outside, the cold wind blows again, and the heat generated by the collision of the stones is taken away by the cold air and dissipated in the air in three or two times, and there is no fire at all.

Yingyi had to let everyone form a secret circle, and it took a lot of time to finally light the firewood.

The crowd who had already been frozen and couldn't stand it immediately lit the fire, added firewood, and stretched out their frozen hands around the fire densely, enjoying the warmth.

However, the brute dragon was an exception, after seeing that everyone had lit the fire, after some distance, he began to use the power of the totem to smash the ice one by one, and the flesh and blood of his hands were blurred.

Seeing this, Ying Yi didn't say much, he felt that under the power of the Dao Barbarian Dragon's totem, there was also a fluctuation of the Nine Turns Xuangong, and the Barbarian Dragon was cultivating with the help of ice.

The firewood on the ice was blazing, and the ice in the lower layer began to melt, and the people of the Qin tribe on the side hurriedly took out the melted water with hay, and then wrung it out and continued, and so on. After about ten minutes, a crater the size of a stone basin and about a centimeter deep appeared on the ice. Through the thin layer of ice at the bottom of the crater, you can already see the lake below.

"Bring a wooden spear. ”

Removing the fire, Ying Yi stretched out his wooden spear and stabbed it at the thin layer of ice at the point of the hole.

"Gollum!"

The next moment, water gurgled out of the small hole that had been poked out, and the water on the wooden spear was transparent, and the small hole looked indeed pitch black.

Seeing that he had finally chiseled through the ice, Lin Luo suddenly said excitedly: "Quick, everyone will use a stone spear to pierce through the ice." ”

"Click!" "Click!" "Click!"

With a crisp cracking sound, the last layer of ice shattered like glass in an instant, revealing the black water surging below.

Everyone in the Qin tribe stretched out their heads to look at the broken ice.

"Can you really catch a fish like this?"

"Patriarch, what are we going to do now?" someone asked curiously.

"Do nothing, just watch. Ying Yi smiled mysteriously.
