Longevity begins with loose cultivation

Chapter 5 First Trial Fishing
Dihuazhou, located three miles north of Qingliuxu, is an island in the middle of the Lishui River.

The soil here is not very fertile, but there are large tracts of Di flowers growing, so it can be regarded as a beautiful scene in autumn when the Di flowers are in full bloom, and it will attract a large number of tourists to watch at this time.

But now it is early spring, and all the Dihua flowers are not covered with leaves. Naturally, there are not many people on Dihuazhou.

On this day, Lu Zhong came here with a small sampan that was about to sink.

Although the small sampan was rotten, he borrowed it after a lot of talking.

There was also a small clay pot on the sampan, and there was a faint sound of water splashing in it. It was a secret weapon he specially prepared.

The clay pots are filled with live bait, a small loach called dragon's beard, named for its long and slender snout that resembles the legendary dragon's beard.The mandarin mandarin mandarin fish likes to eat loach, this is what Lu Zhong asked the chef of Jiangwei Pavilion with a cleansing talisman. Every time they cut open the mandarin mandarin fish’s belly, they could see the remains of this small loach, which shows that it has something to eat. How much I love to eat.

What he has to do now is to shake the boat to the top of a hidden reef at the head of Dihua Island.

Lu Zhong didn't know where Yanliu's mandarin mandarin fish was caught in Dihuazhou, but according to his many years of fishing experience in his previous life, this is the most likely place near Dihuazhou to hide mandarin mandarin fish. There are traces of hidden places.

"Unexpectedly, I also lived the way I hated the most in the past!"

Lu Zhong had no reason to sigh, so he pushed the heavy anchor stone tied with hemp rope into the river, so that the small sampan could be fixed in the rapids.

There was a creaking sound from the decaying small sampan, the bow of the boat sank slightly due to the pull of the hemp rope, and the turbulent river washed over the hull.

Fortunately, it finally survived.

Relieved, Lu Zhong took out a coil of fishing line with a small silver hook on it.

There is also a knot above the small hook, and a small stone is tied to it, which is used as a temporary lead pendant.

Take out a dragon beard loach from the clay pot, wrap its slippery body with rags, and then hook the hook on the loach, so the fishing group is considered complete.

Next, is the most important step.

Taking a deep breath, he let out the fishing line bit by bit.

Without a suitable fishing rod, Lu Zhong could only choose hand-line fishing.

With a slight sense of falling to the bottom, he knew that the bait had reached the bottom.

The next step is to wait for the possible existence of mandarin mandarin fish to take the bait.

After waiting for an unknown amount of time, Lu Zhong was a little thirsty from the sun, so he took off the bamboo tube tied around his waist, and drank the cold boiled water in the tube.

Suddenly, his left hand that was wrapped around the fishing line tightened!
A sense of intense struggle immediately came along the fishing line, strangling Lu Zhong's hand so painfully.

"coming!"

Lu Zhong's eyes lit up, he quickly threw the bamboo tube in his hand, and quickly started to take up the thread.

The fish that was hooked was not big, but the pulling force was terrifying. He didn't know what kind of fish he caught, but he was just pulling desperately, trying to get the fish out of the water as quickly as possible.

If you let the fish get into the crevices of the reef, all your work will be in vain.

After a lot of fighting, even his hands were bleeding, Lu Zhong finally pulled the hooked fish out of the water.

"Whoa!"

Unfortunately, it is a silvery white.

Lu Zhong was full of disappointment, but he still pulled the three-two-jin fish onto the boat.

The eyes of this fish are big and round, and the neck of the fish is obviously upturned, which looks quite funny.

Although it wasn't the target fish he wanted to catch, and the fish body didn't seem to have any spiritual energy overflowing, it was barely enough to feed his hunger, but he didn't know whether the fish meat was fishy or not, and whether there were many small spines in the meat.

Use a straw rope to pass through the gills of the fish and fasten it so that it will not struggle to jump out of the boat.

Lu Zhong took out another dragon's beard and put it on the hook again.

This time he learned his lesson and wrapped the piece of rag around his hand to prevent his hand from being strangled again.

After another long wait, there was movement from the fishing line again.

But when you pull it, it feels surprisingly easy.

Pulled it up and looked, it turned out to be that kind of strange fish just now.

This little fish didn't even reach two or three, and at first glance, it could be seen that it was a newborn baby milkfish. Who knows how dare it swallow a finger-thick dragonfish, and it's not afraid that it will choke itself to death.

Rolling his eyes, Lu Zhong took it off the hook and threw it into the water with his backhand.

Looking at the dragon slugs in the clay pot again, there are not many left, only the last three.

After muttering for a while, he put the bait on the hook again, and put it into the river like the previous two times.

But this time, not long after the bait was put down, a huge force came from the fishing line immediately.

Even though it was covered with a layer of rotten cloth, Lu Zhong still felt that his hand was being strangled, and his fingertips soon turned purple-black.

Even so, he still did not give up.

"What kind of fish is so powerful!" Lu Zhong gritted his teeth and pulled wildly, tug-of-war with the big fish in the water.

For a time, evenly matched.

Who will win or lose depends on whether Lu Zhongxian can't hold back and let go, or the fish underneath are exhausted and unable to resist.

As for the fishing line breaking?Will the hook be deformed?

Neither of these situations will arise.

The fishing line is woven with "angry cow". Although this weed has the disadvantage of being perishable, its pulling force is so scary when it is fresh that it is estimated that a large fish weighing hundreds of catties will not be able to break it.

As for the fishhook, it was Lu Zhong who exchanged that stainless steel sword.

Although it is small and inconspicuous, it is made of a scrap of scraps from the utensils.

The hook body is extremely hard and the toughness is also very good.

The only possibility now is that the big fish will tear apart part of its flesh and blood during its frantic struggle, thus getting rid of the control of the hook. This is the only way for it to get rid of the hook.

After an unknown amount of time, Lu Zhong's clothes were already wet with sweat.

The extremely fierce mermaid battle finally ended with him winning.

The big fish that had lost the ability to resist turned white and surfaced, and it turned out to be a fish that had never been seen before.

Lu Zhong was dumbfounded at the moment, and said in a daze: "What kind of fish are these? Why are they weirder than the previous two?"

The belly-turned big fish was about five feet long, covered with black and fine scales, the texture on its body didn't look like a fish, but it was more similar to those long snakes, including the head of the fish, which looked almost the same as the head of a snake.

He wanted to cry but had no tears, and after a long time, he managed to pull up such a fish.

Seeing the setting sun in the distance was about to set on the mountain, Lu Zhong, who had a low cultivation base, did not dare to stay in the wild. According to various rumors, this was the time for the evil cultivators to come out to hunt.Quickly loosen the grass rope tied to the bow of the boat, and let the small sampan float down the current towards Qingliuxu.

Those evil cultivators dare not approach the market during the day, but not necessarily with the cover of night.

He has been fishing here for so long, maybe he has already been targeted by some evil cultivator.

To be on the safe side, it's better to go fast!

Hurrying all the way, when Lu Zhong rowed back to Qingliu Market, it was already the first time when the lights came on.

Docking the small sampan on the shore, he wrapped the big fish in a cloth and carried it towards Jiangwei Pavilion.

Although Jiangwei Pavilion may not be accepted, it is good to try one's luck.

What if, take it?
