Chapter 38 Fishing
The afternoon sun was so hot that even the birds hid to avoid being burned by the sun.

It was quiet in the mountains, and everything seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.

Perhaps it was because during the previous few times I went into the mountains, except for the time I encountered a wild boar, I encountered no danger.

Therefore, although everyone is still a little wary, they are not that afraid.

Wen Xian did not plan to take the previous path this time, but took another path and looked for bamboo in another direction.

Unfortunately, her luck was not so good this time.

Apart from catching another pheasant, picking up a few pheasant eggs, and picking some mushrooms, wild vegetables and herbs along the way, there was no other harvest.

After returning with regret, Wen Xian was not discouraged and planned to continue looking for bamboo in the mountains next time.

It was imperative to find bamboo, she had to find it.She couldn't believe that there wasn't even a single bamboo in such a huge mountain.

After returning, she took the rabbit skin that Jiang Jingwan had kneaded and began to deal with the grease on it.

By the time I finished processing the grease and cleaned the rabbit skin and came back, the sky had darkened.

She took the two rabbit skins into the hole and spread them on the pile of firewood to dry. She would take them out of the hole to continue drying tomorrow.

……

After a sleepless night, Wen Xian went to see the tide situation as usual the next morning.

Unexpectedly, the sea water has begun to show signs of ebbing. It seems that today is a high tide.

The low tide is a good time to pick up seafood. Wen Xian forgot about the bamboo and hurried back to the cave to inform everyone to get ready to catch the sea in the afternoon.

Maybe if we don't wait until the afternoon, we can catch some sea fish if we wait for another hour.

She urged: "Quickly, make straw baskets with grass and vines and use them as fishing nets. Then go fishing with me later."

Eat clams and oysters all day long, no matter how full you are.Eating too much is like chewing wax, so you have to get some sea fish to eat.

There is strength in numbers, and in response to her call, everyone began to take action.

Wen Xian has been deliberately collecting materials for making straw baskets. Although there are not many, it is enough to make six or seven straw baskets like the ones she made before.

However, instead of weaving them all into straw baskets, she made three straw baskets and a fishing net.

Fishing nets are difficult for other people who have never been exposed to them, but for Wen Xian, who has been at the beach for many years, it is easy.

However, it only took half an hour for Wen Xian to weave a simple fishing net.

Because you want to catch fish, the hole in the fishing net cannot be too big.Therefore, it takes a lot of materials to weave a fishing net.

The size of the fishing net is only as big as a dustpan.

The fishing net was woven, and after a brief lunch, Wen Xian took the straw basket and fishing net and headed to the beach.

No need to go into the mountains, Jiang Jingwan, a pregnant woman, can join in and start the fight.

"If you don't go down until later, I see that the waves on the shore are still a little too fast and it's not safe." Jiang Jingwan looked at the beach, which was only two meters away, with worry in her eyes.

The sea water has not completely receded, and the waves are hitting fast, which is very dangerous.

Wen Xian said quietly: "Now you know the danger. Who was rushing into the sea a few days ago?"

Compared with the place where Jiang Jingwan went, the waves here are relatively gentle.As long as you pay attention, there's nothing wrong with it.

Jiang Jingwan's face turned slightly red and she said nonchalantly, "I won't do it next time."

At that time, she was very talented and bold, but she didn't have that much respect for the sea.I always felt that if she could float to the island, she would not encounter any danger later.In fact, this is not the case. The power of nature is stronger than imagined.

Sometimes Wen Xian even wonders if it was because she traveled through time that she drifted safely to the island.

Otherwise, surviving in the deep sea cannot be explained by science.

"Remember what you said today." Wen Xian said, "Marine fish generally don't stay stranded on the beach, they have to be fished in the water. The sea water recedes further and further away, so we don't go to the depths and just fish next to it.

It is best to work in groups of three, with the person in the middle responsible for fishing, and the people on both sides supporting each other and carrying the catch. "

If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't get the tiger's cubs. Appropriate risk taking is also a kind of exercise for those who want to survive on a desert island.

Jiang Jingwan pondered for a moment, then nodded and said: "Madam, please be careful and come back if necessary. Without fish, we can still eat wild vegetables. There is still a lot of kelp picked up last time."

Wen Xian nodded. Before she started, Xia Zhi and Zhou Hui quickly stood on both sides of her, wanting to form a team with her.
Wen Xian didn't care who she teamed up with, but Jiang Lingling and others who didn't get a spot were extremely depressed.

In the end, Wen Xian, Xia Zhi and Zhou Hui were in one group, Wu Junlan, Zheng Rou and Fang Jiaren were in one group, and Jiang Lingling, Hu Keer and Sheng Lian'er were in one group.

The remaining Bai Qiangwei stayed on the shore to accompany Jiang Jingwan, while picking up seafood exposed on the beach.

After the preparations were completed, the sea water receded a little.Wen Xian quickly took Xia Zhi and Zhou Hui into the sea. She had already identified the location where she planned to set the net.

The location Wen Xian was optimistic about was exactly where Jiang Lingling found the eel.

The sea water there is just up to the thighs at the moment.There are several rocks in the water, which are just suitable for fish habitats.

The three of them helped him to the destination, and Wen Xian waved his hand to drop the fishing net.

After a while, she directly fished the fishing net up and tried to see if she could catch fish.

"There are really fish." Zhou Hui said happily, "There are so many fish in just a short while. If we catch a little longer, there will be more."

From the moment the fishing net was cast down to when it was lifted up, it only took a few dozen breaths.Although the fish is small, it is still harvested and not in vain.

Although Xia Zhi still had a calm expression, her shining eyes had already betrayed her mood at the moment.

"These are small yellow croakers. They are most delicious when fried. Of course, they can also be eaten grilled or made into soup." Wen Xian licked her lips, poured the five small yellow croakers in the net into the grass basket, and then continued to cast the net to catch fish.

She felt bitter in her heart. The fried small yellow croaker she had not cherished in her previous life and was tired of eating was now a luxury.

Seeing Wen Xian's harvest, the others were not to be outdone and began to spread straw baskets to catch fish.

The straw basket is no better than a fishing net. You can only bend down and put your arms into the water together with the straw basket.

Feeling the touch from time to time on her hands, Jiang Lingling, who was responsible for fishing, couldn't help but exhale softly.

She wanted to scream loudly, but held back for fear of scaring the fish away.

Even Wu Junlan, who had always been calm and composed, couldn't help but shrink his hands and forced himself to calm down.

Wen Xian chuckled and comforted: "Don't be afraid, just get used to it. No matter what you catch, put it in first."

Of course, it's possible to catch a sea snake.Wen Xian didn't dare to say this to them. After all, which woman is not afraid of snakes.

Oh, it's her.

She is a medical student and has dissected many snakes.As long as it's not a venomous snake, she's really not afraid.Even if it is a poisonous snake, she believes that her hand speed can use local materials to detoxify it.

After thinking about it, it was time to set up the second net.Wen Xian quickly closed the net and lifted it up, bringing up a large amount of sea water.
