Qingyan raised her eyebrows, took out the water plants fished out of the basket, threw them on the ground next to her, and then put the basket into the water as Chou Chou said.
As soon as I put the basket into the water, in the blink of an eye, five or six fish weighing more than a kilogram appeared out of thin air in the basket!
Qingyan was stunned on the spot. She was still thinking about how to hook the fish, but she didn't expect it to be done directly.
Qingyan looked around subconsciously and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there was no one around. If someone saw this, they would think it was haunted.
At this time, Chou Chou's voice sounded in her head again, "What are you still doing? Come on, pick it up quickly, or those fish will run away again!"
Qingyan subconsciously followed the instructions, quickly reached out to hold the wooden handle, and lifted the basket directly up.
Quite heavy!
It wasn't until the water came out of the basket that the weight became lighter.
Looking at the five or six big lively fish in the basket, Qingyan looked at Chou Chou in surprise and asked in a low voice: "How did you do it? Did you use your spiritual consciousness? Didn't you mean to live in your space? No more?"
Chou Chou rolled his eyes and sent a message to her: "You are stupid, can't it be enough if I don't take them into the space? Just wrap them with my consciousness and throw them into the basket, otherwise they won't die.
Animals will die only if they enter my space, and my consciousness cannot kill them. As long as they don't let them in, they will be fine. "
Qingyan nodded, really, why didn't she think of it.
No matter what, he quickly called for someone to come over with something to hold the fish, "Orchid! Da Ya! Come on, come on, we caught a lot of fish, come over here with a big wooden basin!"
Lan Hua, Daya and Hei Dan, after hearing her words, directly picked up the wooden basin from the donkey cart and ran over at a trot.
When Hei Dan saw the five or six big fish in the basket, he couldn't help shouting in surprise, "Wow! So many fish, such big fish!"
Lanhua and Daya also looked excited. This fish looks delicious!
"Sister Xue, there are so many fish in this river! You are so amazing, you caught so many in one go!"
Da Ya looked at Qing Yan with admiration and said.
Qingyan felt a little embarrassed by her look, grinned and said, "It should be because there are fewer people coming to catch fish, so they are less afraid of people, so I put a few earthworms in the basket, and they took the bait."
"Earthworms? What are they?"
Grandma Lanhua heard the sound and came over. She happened to hear this sentence and asked with a puzzled look on her face.
Qingyan was stunned for a moment when she was asked, and then she thought that in ancient times, earthworms were not called earthworms, but she couldn't remember what else they were called.
He simply dug in the ground with a wooden stick and pulled out an earthworm to show them. "Hey, this is it. Put this in the basket and the fish will come in by itself."
Everyone suddenly realized, "Hey~ It turns out to be an earth dragon. We used to feed this to chickens and ducks. It turns out that fish also eat this."
"Then let's go get a few more baskets. There are so many of us now, and these few fish aren't enough."
"Yes, yes, yes, hurry up and get the basket, and bring the wooden basins and barrels over, otherwise you won't be able to hold them..."
Seeing how active everyone was, Qingyan looked at Chou Chou with some uncertainty and sent a message to him: "Can it be done with so many people? Will there be any flaws?"
Chou Chou patted her arm and replied: "Don't worry, I just deliberately showed you the power of my spiritual consciousness. People will pay attention to it in front of outsiders.
After a while, I will use my spiritual consciousness to drive the fish over. If there are earthworms in your basket, they will definitely attract some of them. If you move quickly, you can always catch a few. "
Qingyan nodded, thinking that this should be fine.
Then everyone dug up a few earthworms and threw them into the basket, then separated some distance before putting the basket into the water.
Qingyan blinked and looked at Chou Chou.
I thought that if they all put the basket together, Chou Chou wouldn't have to worry about it and could just drive all the fish over. But that can't be done now.
Thinking about it, it is unrealistic to put all the baskets together. The fish will not just gather together and come in groups to die.
What everyone is doing is correct, but I have no experience.
Chou Chou didn't care, and sent a message to her: "It doesn't matter. When the time comes, you can say something to attract their attention. I will just drive the fish to the position where the basket is placed. I will remind you when it goes in. You can just lift it up." ."
Qingyan nodded imperceptibly, indicating that she understood.
They tied the basket to a stick and lowered it so that it could be placed farther away without getting their clothes wet.
Of course Chou Chou couldn't just drive the fish in, he had to wait a while, otherwise there wouldn't be that many fish here, and suddenly the fish would take the bait, which would be a bit strange.
After waiting for about two or three minutes, Chou Chou said Qingyan: "Okay, I've driven the fish in. You watch the movement on the water surface and quickly pick up the basket."
This time they did not place the basket by the river, mainly because the water by the river was too shallow and they could see the bottom at a glance to see whether there were any fish.
So Qingyan took the lead and put the basket a little inside. Fortunately, they had the wooden sticks used to build the shelf, which was perfect for lifting the basket now.
Although it was summer, they were wearing straw sandals, and they were not afraid of wading in the water. They just had to roll up their trouser legs, but after all, there were so many foreign men around, so it was better to be careful.
As soon as Chou Chou finished speaking, Qingyan looked towards the water and saw ripples on the water where she placed the basket. She quickly said: "Quick, quick, quick, the fish has gone in, lift the basket!"
As he said that, he immediately lifted it up and there was indeed a fish!
Although there were not as many fish this time as last time, after all, Chouchou put them in directly last time. This time he caught two, but they were bigger than the fish just now, weighing more than two kilograms.
Qingyan secretly gave Chou Chou a thumbs up, and the others also raised their eyebrows after hearing Qingyan's words. Lanhua and Daya cooperated when they were weak, but they were in a hurry. There was grass and mud beside the water, and they almost missed it. Sliding into the water, even my trouser legs got wet.
However, the result was gratifying. There were three fish weighing more than a pound in their baskets.
Everyone put five baskets in total. When they picked it up, almost every basket was empty. The ones with the most were from Yang Dashan's house. The one she put in was newly made on the road and was deeper than the previous one, so she got up. At that time, there were the most fish. There were five fish in it, ranging from one to two kilograms to more than half a kilogram. They were of different sizes.
In fact, that's the normal way to catch wild fish in the river. If they are all about the same size, wouldn't they be the same as those bought in the market?
In other people's baskets, there are as few as one, as many as three or four, large and small.
Everyone lifted the basket and poured it into the basin, and a wooden basin and a wooden barrel were filled at once.
