"Want to come and try fishing? There's no point in just standing there and watching." Dolig invited.
Lu Xi happily accepted, "Okay, but I don't have fishing gear." She thought for a while, "I can buy it from Uhe."
This place is very close to Uga's home, and it only takes two or three minutes to go back and forth.
Dolig laughed, "There's no need for that. I have extra fishing rods here, so I'll give them to you."
After saying that, a brand new fishing rod appeared in Dolig's hand. He stood up and handed it to Lu Xi.
Lu Xi reached out and took it.
[System notification: Congratulations on getting the key tool "fishing rod" and unlocking the function "fishing". You can use this function to obtain monsters or plants in the water. 】
Of course, fish can also be considered monsters. After all, there are far more monsters in the water than just fish.
But, what does it mean to get water plants?
Lu Xi rarely cleared her mind. She no longer thought about these complicated and troublesome issues. She walked next to Dolig and became familiar with this brand new fishing rod.
She had never fished before, but she had watched many videos of other people fishing, and she knew that she had to first put the bait on the hook and then throw the hook away.
Lu Xi looked around and found a small box that wasn't too big next to the bucket on Dolig's left that was going to be used to hold the fish.
"Is this fishing bait? Can I use it?" Lu Xi asked, although many players, when playing the game, would go through the NPC's home box and take away the things in the NPC's home without the NPC's permission.
After all, the system has set "can be picked up", doesn't that mean that these things belong to the player! ! !
But Lu Xi is not like this. Because of her previous two months' experience, it is difficult for her to completely treat this place as a game, so even if she is not used to interacting with NPCs, she will try her best to talk to them as "human beings".
This might make her feel less lonely on this farm.
"Of course." Dolig laughed heartily.
So Lu Xi calmly picked up the small box and opened it. Inside was a layer of writhing earthworms. There were a lot of them, they were fat and looked a little disgusting.
Fortunately, Lu Xi was prepared, and she didn't mind this at all... When she was surviving in the wild, countless bugs crawled on her body. Every day before she got up or fell asleep, she had to check herself to avoid being bitten by bugs. into clothes.
At that time, she had no choice. She just took the bugs out of the folds of her clothes with her hands. She had already developed enough courage.
Lu Xi took out the cotton gloves from the system backpack and put them on before picking up the earthworms in the box and hanging them on his fishhook.
Although she was brave enough, the feeling of earthworms when held directly with her hands was still a bit disgusting.
After several unskilled movements, Lu Xi finally succeeded in throwing the fishhook away and landed it in the river.
Lu Xi didn't have a stool, so she sat directly on the ground next to Dolig, holding the fishing rod and waiting for the fish to bite.
In fact, when she threw the fishhook, the system panel popped up, showing an overhead view of the river. Lu Xi could directly click on the location above to lower the fishhook.
But for the first time, Lu Xi ignored the game panel and only did these things according to his own wishes.
After the fishhook is dropped, a new system panel appears, which is an underwater vertical section. You can see what fish are approaching around the fishhook.
Lu Xi can choose to click on the left and right movement icon that appears above to fine-tune the position of the fishhook so that the fishhook can actively approach the fish instead of waiting for the fish to approach.
But Lu Xi just glanced at it and took off the system panel. Just like cooking in a portable kitchen, Lu Xi could use his mind to control the system panel to disappear, and then use the portable kitchen normally.
The same goes for fishing. She doesn't want to rely on the power of the game panel, so she can use the fishing rod to fish normally.
While waiting for the fish to take the bait, Lu Xi let her mind go and didn't think about anything. She just looked at the scenery in front of her. Maybe she wasn't even looking at the scenery, but was just in a daze.
The fishing rod in his hand suddenly started to move. Lu Xi came back to his senses and saw the fish floating on the water undulating in the water. The one who was more excited than her was Dolig next to her. Dolig's eyes lit up, "Quick! Stop it quickly." Rod, catch the fish, catch the fish.”
Lu Xi stood up in a panic and pulled the fishing rod up. Dolig quickly gave instructions from the side, "Turn that line quickly, don't just pull the fishing rod, loosen it, pull it, pull it down!"
Lu Xi sweated nervously and then picked up a small fish that was only about the size of a palm. Carrying this small fish that took a lot of effort from her, Lu Xi looked at Dolig, who was also there. Look at Luxi.
Soon the two of them laughed out loud at the same time.
Lu Xi unceremoniously put the fish into Dolig's bucket. After all, she didn't have any container to put the fish in.
After placing the bait again and swinging the hook, Lu Xi sat down again, but before she could sit there for long, the fish float soon started to move again.
Now that Lu Xi had gained experience, he was not as panicked as he was the first time. He calmly pulled the fishing rod, turned the fishing line, and soon caught another small fish as big as a palm.
Dolig turned his head and looked at Lu Xi in surprise. Although they were all small fish, it was a bit rare to catch them continuously.
Lu Xi actually didn't expect that she would get such a big harvest from fishing. She originally wanted to learn from Dolig, but when she couldn't catch any fish, she just sat here and felt the surrounding scenery, letting her thoughts go and gaining peace of mind.
As a result, as soon as the fishhook was put down, fish would take the bait in just three or two minutes. Lu Xi didn't have much time to think about life in a daze, so he spent all of it collecting fish.
When the sun completely set, Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zuo, who had been unable to wait for Lu Xi to return home, ran to find them. Lu Xi had already caught a bucket full of fish.
Although they are only as big as a palm, the number is even more exaggerated because of their small size.
And for such a long time, Dolig's fishing rod has not moved once, and it is as stable as a rock.
After Lu Xi caught half a bucket of fish, he couldn't help but ask Lige, "I can understand catching one or two small fish, but with so many fish, all of the same size, is there a possibility, that is, Are all the fish in this small river this big?”
Dolig thought for a long time, "I don't know."
Lu Xi was silent for a moment, "So, in fact, you haven't caught a fish in such a long time?"
Dolig's eyes suddenly widened, "Fishing is a kind of fun, and fish is just the added value brought by this fun. How can you say that?!"
Lu Xi understood, that was because he had never caught anything before.
Seeing the figures of Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo, and the darkening sky, Lu Xi also realized that he should go back. He stood up and moved his body, and finally picked up a fish on the hook and put it into the bucket. Lu Xi Pick it up and get ready to leave.
Dolig snorted and seemed a little concerned about what Lu Xi said before, "That's my bucket."
Lu Xi waved his hand and laughed, "You can't catch any fish anyway, so just lend it to me for a while, and I'll return it to you tomorrow."
Dolig didn't speak again, or even looked back. He just listened to the voice behind him and gradually moved away.
"Sorry, sorry, Xiao Yuan, Zhuo Zuo, I was so obsessed with fishing that I forgot the time. Look, here are all the fish I caught. When we go back later, we can set up the grill, eat grilled fish, and cook a pot of fish soup... …”
Dolig was still sitting on his pony, holding his fishing rod, looking at the water in the distance or the moon that had just risen. His movements were exactly the same as what Lu Xi had seen before.
No one knows when he will leave here, and no one knows when he will catch a fish. He sits here as if he has never changed.
However, there was a bucket missing from Dolig's side, and something was broken.
…
Just as Lu Xi said, she set up a bonfire in the yard and put on a grill. These and the grill were things she bought from the human town. Xiulan found them at a blacksmith shop and customized them. .
It is much rougher than the barbecue grills on Earth. The main reason is that the time is too tight. The blacksmiths have no time to polish them carefully and can only make them usable.
The one-meter-long large grill was placed directly on the bonfire. Lu Xi cleaned up some of the fish, skewered it on a barbecue pole, put it on the grill, brushed it with oil, applied the sauce, and listened to the crackling sound of the flames. .
Lu Xi looked at the two cubs, one big and one small, and couldn't help but laugh. This kind of life seemed very good. She already had a lot of things, didn't she?
The aroma of fish soup soon emerged from the pot in the portable kitchen nearby and spread throughout the yard.
Lu Xi took out the fine wine that she got from Xiulan, which should have belonged to Kagli, and drank it by the campfire.
There is something like "ordinary red wine" in her backpack, but since she came to this other world, she should drink wine from this world, right?
Lu Xi didn't give Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo a drink, but they still played with the drunk Lu Xi for several hours, enjoying this happy night for some reason.
…
When she woke up the next morning, Lu Xi sat on the bed and was confused for a while. What was a rare thing was that neither Xiao Yuan nor Zhuo Zhuo was at her bedside.
Lu Xi had no chance of waking up with a hangover, dizziness and headache, unless she drank after four o'clock in the morning.
The refresh function at four o'clock in the morning allowed Lu Xi to welcome a new morning refreshed.
After finishing washing, Lu Xi walked out of the house. Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zuo were...busy in the farmland?
Lu Xi couldn't tell whether the two of them were working or playing when they got up early in the morning. He only knew that the yard of cabbage he planted yesterday was gone.
Seeing the scene in front of her, Lu Xi recalled that when she was drunk last night, she mentioned the magic pet contract to Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo.
Of course, neither of them refused, but Lu Xi was drunk at the time, and after signing the magic pet contract, he did not have the energy to check out the new magic pet functions.
I just roughly know that from then on, Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo were bound to some of the permissions of Lingbo Farm, and they could help Lu Xi operate some tools or complete some trivial tasks.
Seeing how seriously Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo were working, Lu Xi did not bother them. While preparing breakfast, he clicked on the system panel to check out the various functions of the magic pet system.
The location is in "Power Management" in the lower left corner. The second page was previously locked, but now you can click to view it.
The magic pet page is divided into upper and lower parts. The upper part is the young dragon Zhuo Zuo, and the lower part is the silver wolf cub Xiao Yuan... Actually, it is not appropriate to say this.
It should be said that each magic pet will occupy a separate section, but there are currently only two magic pets, so it seems to be an upper and lower part.
After getting more magic pets, Lu Xi can drag up and down the information sections of these magic pets and click on the information sections of different magic pets to view more detailed content.
The outermost section only contains simple information such as the familiar's avatar, name, race, gender, height, and weight.
For example, Zhuozuo's panel displays:
[[Zuo Zhuo avatar] Demon pet name: Zhuo Zhuo]
[Magic Pet Race: Dragon (Elemental Attribute: Fire)]
[Magic pet level: low level]
[Gender of Demon Pet: Male]
[Age of Demonic Pet: One month]
[Height of Demon Pet: 210cm]
[Demon pet weight: 180kg]
Xiao Yuan is the same as Zhuo Zhuo.
[[Xiao Yuan Avatar] Demon Pet Name: Xiao Yuan]
[Magic Pet Race: Silver Wolf (Elemental Attributes: Wind, Fire)]
[Magic pet level: low level]
[Gender of Demon Pet: Female]
[Age of Demonic Pet: Five months]
[Height of Demon Pet: 100cm]
[Demon pet weight: 26kg]
After clicking on it, more detailed and complex content appeared, including more hobbies and so on.
One of Xiao Yuan's hobbies is "egg food", and one of Zhuo Zhuo's hobbies is "taking people to fly". Lu Xi was speechless for a long time.
In addition, there are various permission settings that Lu Xi has seen in power relationship management, such as whether farm planting permissions are open to magic pets, whether farm harvest permissions are open to magic pets, whether farm tool usage permissions are open to magic pets, etc.
Lu Xi directly acquiesced to open everything last night. After reviewing the general permissions, she did not make any changes. She still trusted Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zuo.
Breakfast was finished quickly. Lu Xi was always like this. He didn't like to eat too many complicated things in the morning, maybe he was lazy.
She used the leftover fish soup from last night to cook some noodle soup, then wrapped the fish with flour and eggs, and fried two plates of side dishes.
She had just taken out the eggs from the magic pet breeding shed, and produced one egg every hour. From last night to now, more than ten hours have passed, and Lu Xi has produced more than a dozen eggs.
The eggs of red-feathered and white-feathered chickens are different from those on earth. After all, it can be seen from the size. The eggs laid by red-feathered and white-feathered chickens are as big as half an ostrich egg.
Lu Xi only cracked two eggs and had half a basin of egg liquid. If Zhuo Zuo and Xiao Yuan hadn't had big appetites, Lu Xi might have been able to use this basin for several days.
After calling Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo back for dinner, Lu Xi already had a wooden table, which he made when he was learning carpenter skills.
Lu Xi suddenly felt that something was not right... By the way, did she have this mailbox at home before?
Lu Xi's eyes slowly fell to the side of the sales board, where there was a mailbox with a blue and white seabird pattern.
In fact, the mailbox was originally set when Lu Xi went downstairs and saw the postman coming in carrying the mailbox to install it.
But I forgot to write it down, so the mailbox just appeared hahaha
