After drifting down for a while, the water flow gradually calmed down, and Mu Qing could finally relax, kneading his sore and swollen arms with his hands.
He took a handful of river water and patted his face.
"This is my first time drifting, and I'm not fully prepared for many things."
"This river is relatively wide, and the mountains on both sides do not cover the middle of the river. I have been in direct sunlight since the morning. If it takes a long time, I will be easily sunburned."
"Before next time you go rafting, you should also do some sun protection for exposed skin."
From the position of the camp, the first hour was almost a sprint down.
After passing through a gentle deep water area, the speed of the downstream water flow gradually slowed down, and when Muqing felt his physical strength recovered.
The speed of floating in the river has also become very slow.
Mu Qing unfastened the sticks fixed on the wooden raft, and flattened the top to make temporary oars.
Sitting in the middle of the wooden raft, paddling one left and one right.
No wonder the system gives a time span of three to five days.
The conditions that will appear along the way, personal physical fitness, and the quality of rafting equipment will directly affect the length of time used.
【Master Mu started to relax again. 】
[This is pretty good, if it has been at the speed just now, I guess Mu Ye can't stand it. 】
【fish!fish!There are fish underneath! 】
【where?where? 】
【Ahead, I just saw a big fish jumping over! 】
have fish?
Muqing opened the map and looked at it, he had already drifted down seven or eight kilometers.
"I saw the fish too, and it looks very familiar just by the size, maybe it's an old friend."
"The current here is not urgent, and it is also suitable for controlling the raft. Just go ashore here."
Muqing used a wooden stick to dig into the bottom of the river, which was deeper than before the water level in the camp rose.
Press the wooden stick down hard, pushing the raft close to the river bank.
Entering the shallow water area, Mu Qing supported the side of the raft into the river, and pulled the raft to the river bank.
He took off his wet coat and short sleeves, and his trousers tied to the raft.
Take them together and wash them in the river water to squeeze out as much water as possible.
A vine was pulled from the river as a clothesline, and the clothes and trousers were hung in a place where the sun could shine.
Stepped into the water and looked inside.
"These must be fish that were originally upstream and were washed down because of the increased current."
"The terrain of this place is relatively flat, and the water flow is not so fast. They settled down here."
"They're my fish, that's right."
"I'm going to find some tools now and try to bring as many of them home as possible."
[Tsk tsk tsk, this is truly a human tragedy. 】
【Fish: Is this okay too? 】
【These big fish never imagined that after fleeing so far with their family, they would still be unable to get out of Master Mu's clutches. 】
【Fish: I am not, your fish is still downstream. 】
【Mu Ye: I don’t care if you are, anyway, I just came out to look for food. 】
[This meow is a long-distance pursuit. 】
Mu Qingchao looked around, went into the forest and cut a large bundle of vines.
"Without the tools at hand, it's so far away from the camp, and it's not worth the effort to make a fish trap."
"I decided to try the previous method of catching river fish to see if I could catch river fish."
"I haven't caught a big fish for a long time recently, and I miss my fish fillet a little bit, haha."
Mu Qing took the wooden stick used as an oar, dug for a while in the soil beside the river embankment, and caught a twisted earthworm up.
"Just use this earthworm to try first to see if any fish take the bait."
As he said that, Mu Qing smashed the stones by the river, and gave the earthworm a "one-foot-high red".
Break off a twig from the river and hang the worms on it.
The top is lightly cut with a knife to create a v-shaped opening to prevent earthworms from being washed directly into the water and become the food of river fish.
"Okay, let's use this poor little earthworm to see if this method works."
Muqing stood by the river, putting the branches as deep as possible.
"Look at how comfortable these fish are living, and they are no longer surprised by the leaves falling from the trees by the river."
"My branch went in, and they didn't even run."
As soon as the words fell, three big fish smelled and swam towards the earthworm.
Muqing slowly retracted the branch, the big fish didn't realize it, and swam all the way with the bait.
Ok?
Are all fish so easy to deceive now?
Muqing felt that he didn't even need to be a tool for fishing. He just made a simple shallow water trap to lure fish in and catch them.
Big fish The three big fish swam forward for a while.
For some unknown reason, they all stopped suddenly.
After hesitating for a moment, they turned around and swam back into the river.
"Hey? How did you leave?"
