Age: Passionate youth, starting from graduation assignment

Chapter 66
It is a big black fish stick in the early two feet, which is often called mullet in the south.

The black fish stick is ferocious by nature and can writhe, no wonder there was such a commotion when he took the bait just now.

Xu Jichang slowly pulled the black fish stick to the water's edge, then lifted it to the shore, and took the hook off with a self-made fish fetcher.

Black fish is not as good as pike and salmon. Its teeth are sharp, but they can't actually pose a real threat to people.Xu Jichang insisted on continuing to use the fish fetcher to take hooks, but it was just to develop a good habit and avoid getting used to it, which would lead to accidents when encountering fish with more fierce teeth.

Shen Qingrui watched Xu Jichang take the hook the whole time, her eyes were full of excitement: this was the first big fish she caught.

"Brother Jichang, why do we eat this fish?"

"Take it back tomorrow and make it into sauerkraut fish."

After thinking about it for a while, Xu Jichang answered, picked a few stalks of thatch, weaved them into grass ropes, and attached the fish to the bow.

The dish of pickled fish originated in the south. After Xu Jichang ate it a few times before traveling, he fell in love with this way of eating.

"Sauerkraut fish? Can black fish sticks be eaten like this?"

Shen Qingrui asked curiously, "Then when you go back, teach me how to do it well?"

"Success, this dish is not difficult to learn."

Xu Jichang agreed and returned to his position to continue fishing.

Shen Qingrui also sat down again, guarding the fishing rod, hoping to catch another one.

Not long after, the sound of fish struggling again came from the surface of the water, and Xu Jichang was caught again.

This time it is a mandarin fish, that is, Aohuayu, one of the three flowers and five Luos, with a very delicious taste.

Xu Jichang bowed the mandarin fish, thinking that this time it was really interesting, excluding the crucian carp, he caught three kinds of fish in total.

This is also the biggest charm of wild fishing. Before the pole is lifted, anglers will never know what kind of surprises are hidden under the water.

In the continuous harvest, Xu Jichang took Shen Qingrui fishing until the evening, and at noon the two ate a few potstickers that Shen Qingrui brought with him when he packed his luggage.

In the middle, he caught more than a dozen jellyfish and a big mandarin fish, and Shen Qingrui also caught a foot-long pike.

Call it a day, you've earned a lot this time.Besides, the number of carnivorous fish in a place is limited in a short period of time. After a morning of hard work, it is estimated that they have been caught by themselves.

Xu Jichang looked at the setting sun that was about to set, and thought in his heart.

"Go back to the tent, pack some firewood on the way, and eat grilled fish later."

"Okay, we really had a bumper harvest today."

Xu Jichang said to Shen Qingrui, and then Shen Qingrui collected the fishing rod and fish food, Xu Jichang killed two fish for dinner, and the two walked behind together.

Xu Jichang carried the Zhe Luo salmon and other fish he had caught, and Shen Qingrui followed him bouncingly, looking extremely happy, and picked up a lot of firewood after a while.

When she arrived at the camp where the tent was pitched, her arms were already full.

The camp was located on a hillside, and Xu Jichang had already cleared an open space on it, and their tents were pitching in this open space.

After bringing the firewood back to the edge of the camp, Xu Jichang glanced around and found a sunken earth pit as a place to start the fire, so as to prevent the fire from being blown out by the wind.Then he asked Shen Qingrui to put the firewood in, and went into the tent to get the seasoning by himself.

Looking at Xu Jichang whose upper body was in the tent, Shen Qingrui's heart beat for a while.

Are you going to sleep in this tent with Brother Jichang tonight?
Shen Qingrui thought to herself, her pink and tender fingertips unconsciously pinched the corner of her clothes, and a green blush appeared on her cheeks.

After Xu Jichang came out of the tent with the spices, he saw her blushing face and asked casually, "Why is your face so red? Is it hot?"

"Huh? I'm not hot."

Shen Qingrui shook her head and said, then wanted to cover up, so she changed her mouth, "Uh, no, it's actually a little hot."

Xu Jichang smiled and said nothing, he had already seen everything from Shen Qingrui's reaction.

After a while, Xu Jichang lit the fire, and Shen Qingrui stringed two killed fish to the branch, one of which was the pike she caught, and the other was the big mandarin fish that Xu Jichang caught.

In the pit, the twigs creaked after being lit, because the upper branches were burned.

The flames were getting higher and higher, Xu Jichang and Shen Qingrui held the skewered fish sticks and put them on top, turning them over from time to time to cook on the other side.

At this time, the sky had already darkened, and Shen Qingrui's fair face was reflected by the bright red light of the fire, which looked very pleasant.

The flames also brought the surrounding temperature up, Shen Qingrui gently wiped the fine sweat on her collarbone and white chest, opened her small cherry mouth and took a few breaths, because her eyes seemed a little blurred due to the heat.

It's a bit too seductive.

"Have you eaten the ginseng I gave you last time?"

Xu Jichang turned over the grilled fish in his hand, and asked Shen Qingrui beside him.

"I'm not willing to eat it. This is something you gave me, brother Jichang."

Shen Qingrui pursed her lips lightly, lowered her head and said in embarrassment.

Xu Jichang couldn't help laughing: This girl took the ginseng she gave her as a token of love.

"Eat, the most important thing is to replenish your body. I'll bring it to you next time after eating."

"Hmm...you are so kind to me."

Shen Qingrui smiled sweetly, her voice soft and sweet.

The fish was almost done, so Xu Jichang sprinkled a little salt on his and Shen Qingrui's grilled fish, roasted for a while and then ate.

Shen Qingrui first took a small bite of the fish's belly, chewing slowly like a little animal that has just been weaned.

In contrast, Xu Jichang just swept the fallen leaves in the autumn wind, and he ate several big mouthfuls in a short time.

"It's delicious."

Shen Qingrui sighed after eating the grilled fish for a while.

"That's not true. Authentic cold-water fish tastes much better than ordinary fish."

Xu Jichang said after swallowing a mouthful of fish.

The sky was getting late, and on the first day of the full moon, it was like a round of white jade plate, and the autumn evening wind blew by, bringing some coolness to the two of them.

After eating the grilled fish, Shen Qingrui leaned on Xu Jichang's shoulder and listened to the stories he told about entering the mountains.

When Xu Jichang talked about thrilling places, Shen Qingrui exclaimed from time to time.When he talked about his ingenious solution to the problem, Shen Qingrui's eyes were filled with admiration for him again.

While the two were talking, the evening wind blew several times, and Shen Qingrui's hair was blown up and touched Xu Jichang's face, making him itchy.

"By the way, by the way... do you like me or not?"

After listening to him tell the story for a while, Shen Qingrui asked, blinking her starry eyes.

"Silly girl, of course I like you."

Xu Jichang hugged Shen Qingrui into his arms, and whispered in her ear.

Shen Qingrui's ears were blown by the heat of his words, her face and snow-white swan's neck were flushed red: "Then...then you still came up with so many tricks to use on me."

"If I like you, I will play those tricks with you."

Xu Jichang touched her smooth face lightly and said.

"Ah? Is that so..."

Shen Qingrui was a little confused by what he said, and after thinking about it, she accepted Xu Jichang's statement.

And her expression also became serious: "Then...then I also like you very much, that's why I accepted those tricks."

Shen Qingrui's eyes were watery when she spoke, her tone was still very formal, she looked very pure and lovely.

Xu Jichang didn't speak any more, but stretched out his hands to hug Shen Qingrui tightly, and kissed her passionately.

The sky thunder catches the ground fire, and the raging fire lights dry wood.

The two kissed together for an unknown amount of time, and they didn't separate until Shen Qingrui was almost out of breath.

"It's getting late, let's get into the tent."

Xu Jichang said.

"Hmm... I'll go pick up some more firewood, otherwise it won't be enough for the night."

Shen Qingrui panted slightly, nodded and said.

"Don't go too far."

"OK."

Shen Qingrui obediently agreed, and got up to collect firewood outside the camp.

Xu Jichang also stood up, went into the tent to get some realgar powder, and sprinkled it around the tent.

During the whole process, Xu Jichang kept his eyes on Shen Qingrui to prevent her from walking away unknowingly.

At this time, a dark cloud floated in the sky, followed by rumbling thunder.

"Throw away the firewood, come back."

Xu Jichang guessed that it was going to rain, and it was useless to light a bonfire at this time, so he shouted to Shen Qingrui.

"Okay."

After Shen Qingrui finished speaking, she dropped the firewood and walked quickly towards the tent.

But it was too late. After the thunder, raindrops the size of soybeans quickly fell from the sky, hitting the ground with a clattering sound.

"Run fast, don't get drenched too much."

Xu Jichang hurried into the tent, opened the tent door and shouted to Shen Qingrui.

Shen Qingrui ran over quickly, and got into the tent in a blink of an eye.

However, she was still drenched a lot, and the water droplets on her face kept dripping down, looking a little embarrassed.

"Take off your clothes, don't catch a cold."

Xu Jichang said.

It's not a problem to have a headache at home, but it's really troublesome if you get sick in the mountains.

"Huh... It's so cold to be drenched in the rain."

According to what he said, Shen Qingrui took off her coat and trousers, leaving only a vest and a pair of shorts, revealing a flat and smooth belly without a trace of fat, and long legs that were as straight and smooth as onion roots.

Xu Jichang took off his coat and wiped off the rain on her body and face.

Shen Qingrui blushed the whole time, allowing Xu Jichang to wipe her delicate skin.

"Come in and sleep."

After wiping off the rainwater for Shen Qingrui, Xu Jichang took out another blanket, spread it on the ground and said to her.

Shen Qingrui quickly got into the blanket and wrapped herself tightly like a pancake.

After nestling under the blanket for a while, she said in a delicate voice: "Brother Jichang, I...I'm still cold."

"I'll warm you up."

Xu Jichang said, then also entered into the blanket, and hugged Shen Qingrui into his arms.

There was not much space in the blanket, so Xu Jichang and Shen Qingrui stuck tightly together after entering.

On a rainy night in the deep mountains, a lonely man and a widow, they share a blanket and look at each other.

After Xu Jichang covered Shen Qingrui's body with some heat, he felt a little dry.

Shen Qingrui's cherry red lips also trembled slightly, as if there were countless little rabbits beating under every inch of skin.
