Age: Passionate youth, starting from graduation assignment

Chapter 64
"Peel the corn, I'm going to pitch a tent, remember not to run around."

Xu Jichang took out a knife from his pocket and said as he handed it to Shen Qingrui.

"Well, I will never run around."

Shen Qingrui took the knife and began to peel off the corn in her hand.

"So, so..."

Shen Qingrui held the handle of the knife in her little hand and kept peeling it. After a while, the corn kernels piled up in front of her like a small pyramid.

When Xu Jichang came back, she had already finished peeling two stalks of corn, and was playing with the corn kernels with her cute fingertips that were white and pink.

"This area is generally low-lying, and it is not easy to find a place to pitch a tent."

"But fortunately, I finally found it."

When Xu Jichang sat down by the stream, he said to Shen Qingrui.

Pitching a tent is very particular. If it is set up in a low-lying place, once it rains heavily and a flash flood occurs, the people sleeping in the tent will be washed away to feed the fish.

"So where did you pitch your tent in the end?"

Shen Qingrui asked.

"Well, there."

Xu Jichang pointed to a high slope in the distance, Shen Qingrui looked in the direction of his finger, and saw the tent he had set up through the trees.

While speaking, Xu Jichang stood up and grabbed a few leaves, put them on the ground with wide leaves, picked up the corn kernels, and put them on the leaves.

Shen Qingrui didn't understand why Xu Jichang did this, but she still followed his example obediently and put some corn on it with her small hands.

After all the corn was placed on the leaves, Shen Qingrui raised her doubts.

Xu Jichang explained to her, saying that if you don't do this, there will be insects like ants crawling over smelling the corn, and the loss of fish food will be small, and it will be uncomfortable to bite people.

After finishing speaking, Xu Jichang also showed her how big the ants in the forest could be: "Here, see, it's as long as a finger, and the ant's head is as big as the head of a foreign nail."

Shen Qingrui gasped: "It seems that you have to pay attention to a lot of knowledge when you are active in the woods."

"That's not right, I haven't entered the old forest yet, and I have to learn more when I really enter the old forest."

Xu Jichang said to Shen Qingrui while holding a float made of corn stalks, "But as long as you do what I say and learn from me, there will be no problem."

"Yeah, I will listen to you in everything, and learn from you."

Shen Qingrui quickly expressed her opinion, thinking that he really knows a lot.

At this time, Xu Jichang had set up the floats of the two fishing rods, and after handing over one of the rods to Shen Qingrui, he began to string corn kernels on the hooks.

Shen Qingrui also took a piece of corn and put it on the hook, feeling that the fishhook that Xu Ji often used was really big.

Hmm... It seems that his things are not too big.

An idea popped up inexplicably in Shen Qingrui, and her little heart beat for a long time with shame, and she still couldn't calm down when she threw the hook into the water.

At this time, Xu Jichang's fish had already started biting the hook, and the float was moving.

Shen Qingrui suddenly seemed to have forgotten that she was also fishing, and immediately focused all her eyes on Xu Jichang.

"call out……"

Under Shen Qingrui's gaze, Xu Jichang quickly lifted the fishing rod and lifted the fish to the shore.

What Xu Jichang caught this time was a crucian carp. The palm-sized fish scales were golden yellow, and the color became darker as it went to the back. It was a standard wild fish.

Xu Jichang took the fish off the hook and found that it didn't even have time to swallow the corn kernels.

To be honest, Xu Jichang kind of wanted to mourn for this crucian carp.

They all say sugar-coated shells, but this crucian carp didn't even get a bite of the sugar-coated shells, so the shells exploded first.

After taking the corn off the hook, Xu Jichang put the crucian carp on the hook again.

"Hey Brother Jichang, what is this for?"

Shen Qingrui was puzzled by his behavior, and continued to ask in a low voice.

"Catch big fish."

Xu Ji often spoke concisely and threw the hook with crucian carp on it back into the water.

There are many local carnivorous fish in the Northeast, and most of them are rare species. The creek in front of me is a cold water stream, which belongs to the standard habitat of cold-water carnivorous fish, otherwise Xu Jichang would not mark it on the side.

For Xu Jichang, this hooked crucian carp was just the bait for the next wave of fishing.

Not long after the hook entered the water, the crucian carp started running around with the fishing line, and Xu Jichang didn't stop him, but just held the fishing rod to prevent it from taking the rod away.

When fishing carnivorous fish, the most important thing is to use live bait, and the more vigorous the bait is, the better.

Of course, the kind of lure bait used by later generations is not within the scope of discussion.

In the creek, after swimming with the fishing line for half a day, the crucian carp seemed a little tired and began to slow down.

At this time, the direction of the wind also changed, and Xu Jichang clearly smelled a wisp of girlish fragrance wafting from Shen Qingrui with the wind.

Shen Qingrui adjusted her clothes herself, and the two white jade rabbits were trembling with her gestures.

Seriously, it's alluring.

Hold on, hold on, I'm fishing, and this is in the wild, so don't be uncontrollable and do something out of the ordinary.

Xu Jichang reminded himself to control his gaze and focus on the float in front of him.

Not long after, the float began to move.

It sinks and floats, shaking constantly, sometimes it seems that there are fish pushing the float up.

The crucian carp, which didn't swim very much at first, suddenly started to move violently, and started running around with the fishing line again, and the speed was still very fast. It looked like it was being chased by some predator.

Xu Jichang was sure it wasn't a snake, and there would be no snakes in such a cold stream.

He immediately killed the fishing rod to prevent the crucian carp from escaping, and then the float paused.

A strong and powerful feeling was transmitted along the fishing rod, and the whole rod immediately became a big bow.

It's big!

Xu Jichang said in his heart, and began to control his strength to fight against the force coming from under the water.

If the force is too small, the fish cannot be controlled like that.

Too much force is even worse, there is an upper limit to the strength that the pole and fishing line can withstand, and too much force will cause the pole to explode and break the line.

Xu Jichang just used moderate strength to walk the big fish on the hook.

Finally, after a long struggle, the fish couldn't bear it and surfaced.

"Tsk, good stuff..."

Xu Jichang took a deep breath after seeing the species of fish clearly.
