Chapter 264 Fishing

Chapter 264 Fishing
This woman is completely different from those delicate daughters of Hongye Academy. Her skin is rough, not only is she missing a front tooth, but also has many tiny scars on her face. She looks like someone who has endured a hard life.

Kali held her up without letting her kneel down, "What is this for?"

"Small... the villain has always admired Kali-sama, and being summoned by Kali-sama, the villain is very frightened..." She stammered, her forehead was covered with sweat.

"Don't be so cautious, since we are here, we are all on our own." Kali said with a smile: "In this foreign land, we want to join hands to destroy the evil Asura tribe. In order to achieve this goal, I still need your full support. Row."

"Small... the villain will definitely do his best to break his body and bones for Kali-sama, and he will never hesitate!" She said excitedly.

Kali led her into the living room, and greeted her: "I remember...you are from Bangladesh, right?"

"Yes, the villain's name is Raphael..."

"Rafa is your former name, but I hope you will have another name in the future - Shi Jiantuo, God of War Shi Jiantuo, I think. You are the reincarnation of Shi Jiantuo." Kali interrupted her.

"But...but..." Rafael was terrified, of course she knew what a great god Shi Jiantuo was, and she never dared to think that she would become the reincarnation of Shi Jiantuo.

"There is nothing but, you are Shi Jiantuo, you can't do anything wrong!" Kali emphasized, "Are you questioning my judgment?"

"No! The villain doesn't dare!" Raphael lowered his head in horror, not daring to meet Kali's gaze.

She was wearing a simple blue cotton sari with white dots, a head scarf of the same color, cloth shoes on her feet, and a large suitcase.

It can be seen from this dress that her financial situation is not very good.

Kali stared at her hands, and the gaze made Rafa even more uneasy. He glanced at Kali's slender and rosy hands, and wanted to hide them behind his back in embarrassment.

Kali grabbed her hand and held it up to her eyes for a closer look.

Her fingers are quite rough, the skin on the back of her hand has several cracks, and there are old scars of all sizes on her fingers, palms, backs of hands, and wrists, all of which are traces of farm work.

What made Kali even more concerned was that there were thick calluses on the inside of the knuckles of the index and middle fingers of her right hand, and the same was true of the tiger's mouth of her left hand.

The earthy smell of green grass and the salty smell of sea fish faintly wafted from her palm, except for its size, it was almost the same as a man's palm.

"What do you do in your hometown?" Kali asked.

"Planting...farming, fishing." She replied in embarrassment.

"What do you use to catch fish?"

"Bow...bow and arrow."

"Shoot fish with a bow and arrow?"

"Um……"

Kali put down her hand and promised, "You will never have to farm and fish again."

Longing and hope burned in her eyes.

Rafa grew up in a small fishing village on the northeastern coast of the subcontinent. As she claims, she made a living from farming and fishing.She was born in a big family, she is the eldest daughter, and there are five younger siblings.

She hardly ever went to school, and she started helping her parents with farm work and taking care of her younger siblings since she was very young. , it was her turn to sleep, and all she did was to make the whole family have enough to eat and live a better life, at least not to starve to death.

She didn't complain, because her fate was like this, it must be because she didn't cultivate blessings in her previous life, so she had to suffer and suffer to redeem her sins in this life. Brahma didn't reincarnate her as an animal, which made her very grateful.

Disasters are frequent in South Asia. Last year there was severe drought, this year floods, next year locust plagues, and the year after turmoil. People often work in the fields for a whole year, and finally there is no harvest.

Faced with her hungry and emaciated siblings, she would starve to death just by digging in the soil, so she tried to find food from the sea.

There are many reefs on the nearby coast. She often climbs the steep reefs to pick up clams and catch crabs. It is common for her fingers to be pinched by crabs or stung by some fierce insects.

Clams and crabs don’t have much meat, and this kind of seafood is not worth much at the seaside. If you want to feed your family, you still have to fish. Two or three big fish are enough for the family to eat, but her family has no fishing boats and cannot go out to sea. How did she go to school? Once she saw someone shooting fish with a bow and arrow on TV in someone else's house, so she made a pair of earthen bows and arrows with willow rubber bands, and tried to shoot fish while standing on the reef.

At that time, she was very young, and she was only about ten years old when she first tried to shoot fish. Children of ordinary people's age are still playing wildly, but she provoked the burden of life early.

The sea was windy and rough, and she was thin and barefoot standing on the slippery reef. When a gust of wind blew, she staggered, and when a wave came and went, she was knocked over and fell into the sea.

The upper front tooth she was missing was knocked on the rocks when she fell into the sea, and it was broken directly. At that time, blood gushed out, and the pain was excruciating, but she just didn't even say a word. She heard that the salt in sea water can disinfect, Taking a mouthful of seawater to rinse her mouth, she almost fainted from the pain.

Enduring the intense burning pain, she spit out the red sea water after a few seconds, gritted her teeth and climbed up the reef again, continuing to try to shoot fish.

It doesn't matter if you lose a front tooth, but if you can't catch fish, with the little clams and crabs in the bamboo basket, your younger siblings may be hungry tomorrow.

After trying for several days in a row, she shot the wooden arrow countless times, and then jumped into the sea to pick up the wooden arrow and continued to shoot. She gradually found some tricks—she had never learned the principle of optical refraction, but through practice she It is found that the position of the fish seen on the sea is not the real position of the fish, but a distance difference. The specific distance depends on the angle of sight and the depth of the fish from the water surface.

Gradually, she began to be able to shoot fish——shooting does not necessarily mean shooting dead, especially for slightly larger and fatter fish. Sometimes after being hit by an arrow, she did not die on the spot. She was frightened and ran away with all her strength. She died in the sea farther away with the wooden arrow. Not only did she not get any fish, but she also lost the wooden arrow.

She knew that it was because her bow and arrow were not strong enough.

After the arrow enters the water, its speed and strength will drop sharply due to the resistance of the water.

So she begged the carpenter in the fishing village to make her a slightly more decent bow, and replace the bowstring with a rubber band with better elasticity. The price was that half of the fish caught in the next two weeks would be given to the carpenter.

She uses her slender arms like hemp rods to hold the tight bowstring again and again. This is unscientific, and it has exceeded the limit of her strength. It is not strength and physical strength that support her to draw the bow, but her will.
