"Just had a little thought, and the fish ran away."
Seeing the fish swimming away without looking back, Mu Qing felt very puzzled.
"This is not right, let me try again."
Mu Qing smashed the earthworm again, and stretched the branch into the depths of the river again.
Soon, a few more fish came around and followed the branch pulled back by Muqing for a while.
When he swam to the same position as before, he also chose to turn around and leave.
"I already know why."
"Now I'm going to prepare the materials needed to catch the fish."
[Stupid, what's the reason? 】
[I don't understand, is there something wrong with that position? 】
[Are there river ghosts? 】
[Can't understand +1, I don't understand what's going on at all. 】
【Master Mu is the worst, he doesn't speak clearly every time. 】
【Why did Lord Mu dismantle the wooden raft? 】
Mu Qing turned the wooden raft over, found the position where the bamboo strips closed before, and removed one of the bamboo strips used to fix the wooden raft.
I pulled it with my hands, straightened the twisted bamboo strips, and cut them into three thinner ones.
The remaining bamboo strips were also removed one by one by Mu Qing, and they were all cut into the same thin bamboo strips.
"In terms of tying things, bamboo is still much better than vines."
"When I go out, I just want to bring as few things as possible to reduce the burden of travel, forgetting that the raft itself can still be used to carry supplies."
"Not to mention anything else, if you tie some bamboo tubes and strips, there will be no problem at all."
Another place to improve has been found.
After only a few kilometers away, Muqing was deeply aware of it.
I thought it was too simple to go down the river for nearly a hundred kilometers.
Fortunately, a short-range attempt was arranged.
If you really want to go, you should avoid a lot of pitfalls.
Take away the bamboo strips, and the wooden raft will cease to exist.
Muqing split the wood used to make the raft into two, split half of it into firewood, and put it in the sun to dry.
Take out some bamboo strips and weave them into a very fine-grained miniature bamboo basket.
Pick up the wooden stick just now, and continue to pry the soil at the foot of the mountain by the river.
"One earthworm is definitely not enough, I will dig out some more."
"I'm not going to spend the night on the road. I want to catch as many fish as possible in the shortest possible time."
I dug seven or eight earthworms, divided them into two, and smashed the holes with stones.
Stuffed some dry grass inside, hanging on a branch beside it.
"The preparations for the first step have been completed, and the second step will begin."
【What?This is the first step?There is a second step? 】
[Maybe there is a third, fourth and fifth step]
[Then it must be arranged until dark? 】
【Master Mu didn't mean to hurry away, it shouldn't be too complicated. 】
[Didn't you mean the kind of trap used to catch brook fish?The second step should be to be a fisherman. 】
[Souga, it makes sense, and I need to make a tool for holding fish. 】
With his head down, Mu Qing walked slowly along the edge of the water.
"This place is good. The water level is deep enough and the current is very gentle. It is very suitable for making fish traps."
This next branch was inserted by the river as a mark.
Mu Qing moved all the larger stones from the embankment and piled them beside the marker.
"I need to move some rocks, surround this location, and form a circle in the middle to leave a mouth just enough for fish to come in."
"Once you lure the fish in with the bait, it's easy to catch them."
"It is difficult for a panicked fish to quickly find the only exit."
"Even if there are one or two fish that slip through the net, it's okay, after all, it's much easier than making up a fish catcher."
After moving a few times, I feel that the quantity should be enough.
Muqing stepped into the water, and first moved some of the stones where the trap was planned to be, so that the inside of the trap did not look like a shallow water area.
Move down the big stones on the river bank and form a circle with a suitable size. The small stones removed before are piled up at the bottom to keep the top stable.
"In this way, the trap is ready."
Chapter 137 I'm so lucky today
"I'm improving the way I came here to make sure it's unimpeded along the way."
Along the direction of the opening of the trap, Mu Qing also cleaned up the excess stones.
In this way, when a larger fish enters the trap, its tail will not sweep the rocks below.
As a result, there is an illusion that the water in this position is still deep.
"Look, such a fish trap that is not time-consuming but very useful is ready."
"Make another harpoon and start catching fish."
Choose a thicker wood from the pile of wood for the raft, open the tiger's mouth of the palm, measure a distance, and mark it.
