"Should we go or not?" asked the little Taoist priest.
"Go, of course. But if you don't take that guy with you, that guy is the most annoying. Their whole family is so stingy." Xilai said with a look of disgust on the Dalei family.
"Didn't he tell you to eat fried tofu for you?" The little Taoist priest was very puzzled.
"It's weird for me to believe him. He said he would give me fried tofu, and he might end up getting one as big as a fingernail. He has used this trick hundreds of times. Forget it, ignore him. I'll ask my mother for some root.
Sewing needle." Xilai said.
Xilai's mother was busy in the kitchen, and Xiqiu followed her mother's buttocks around, holding a freshly fried crucian carp in her hand and eating it with gusto. When she saw Xilai coming, she quickly put the fried crucian carp behind her buttocks. Xilai was busy looking for a seam.
I didn't notice my sister's mouth moving at all.
"Mom, where did you put your sewing needle?" Xilaifeng asked angrily.
"What are you doing with the needle?" Xilainiang asked casually as she was very busy.
"I pricked a thorn in the ditch today. I picked it with a needle." Xilai made up a lie casually.
"It's on the window sill of our room. Go get it yourself." Xilainiang said.
Xilai was overjoyed and ran into her parents' room quickly. Sure enough, she saw a sewing needle stuck on the window sill with a white thread strung on it.
Xilai took a sewing needle, found a piece of twine in the room, and ran out.
"Come on, let's go outside and get it done." Xilai said.
However, how to turn this needle into a fishhook was a problem. Although the needle was very hard, it was also very brittle. If it was bent slightly, it would break. Xilai frowned as she looked at the sewing needle.
"Do you know what a fishhook looks like?" the little Taoist asked.
"Why don't you know? It's like weighing a hook."
, made into a fishhook shape.
"Then do you know how to use a sewing needle to make a fishhook?" the little Taoist asked.
Xilai shook his head: "I don't know, but the Red Soldiers and the others definitely know."
"Then let's go ask the red soldiers?" asked the little Taoist priest.
"Hong Bing is a very selfish person. He will definitely not tell us." Xilai shook his head, feeling very frustrated.
"Give me the needle. I'll try it," the little Taoist said.
Xilai quickly said: "Don't bend it with brute force, it will break easily."
Before he finished speaking, the needle in his hand had been taken away by the little Taoist priest: "If you break it, I'll pay you."
When the needle reached the little Taoist priest's hand, a golden light suddenly appeared in his hand. The needle flashed, which made Xilai's eyes dazzled. When he opened his eyes and saw clearly, the sewing needle had turned into a fishhook. The needle
The hole seems to have become slightly larger, just enough to pass the twine through, tie a knot to tie the twine, then find a small bamboo, and tie one end of the twine directly to the bamboo pole.
"Is this okay?" the little Taoist priest asked.
"Wait a minute, I need one more thing." Xilai was so preoccupied with fishing that she forgot to ask the Taoist priest how he turned a sewing needle into a fishhook.
Xilai picked up a section of sorghum stalks on the Shai Valley flat, broke off a knuckle length, and tied it to a hemp rope, naturally preparing to use it as a float.
"Hey, why has this needle become heavier?"
Now the sewing needle is as heavy as an iron nail, and when it hangs down naturally, it actually straightens the twine.
"It's time to eat, where are you two going?" Zhou Ping ran out with a spatula, but the two kids had disappeared.
"Mom, the two of them must have gone fishing. I saw them turning your sewing needle into a fishhook and taking away the fish basket." Because the two brats ran very fast, Xiqiu couldn't keep up.
I filed a complaint when I came back.
"I'll take care of it when they come back," Zhou Ping said.
Xiqiu blinked her eyes. When her brother comes back, will he be spanked? Or will he be punished by kneeling at a shrine? Do you want another basin of water on your head?
The two boys had already run to the river. It was said to be a river, but in fact it was not very wide. A strong man could reach the other side of the river.
"Oh, no, I forgot to dig up earthworms." Xilai ran to the river and patted his head.
"This is not easy." The little Taoist moved a stone by the river, and sure enough, he saw an earthworm under the stone. He quickly grabbed an earthworm, pinched off a section and stringed it on the fishhook.
The fishing line is of a fixed length, and there is no need for any skills. I just throw the hook with a bamboo pole and throw it into the river.
Fishing is an activity that tests one's mind. Without a certain amount of patience, it is impossible to sit still. After waiting for less than five minutes, Xilai couldn't sit still.
"Little Taoist Master, look quickly and see if the fish have eaten all the bait. Why hasn't there been any movement for a long time?" Xilai asked anxiously.
The little Taoist leader can stand on the pile for half an hour every day without saying a word. For him, this test is not worth mentioning: "Don't worry, if you eat the bait, the float will definitely move."
"I see other people fishing, one fish at a time, one fish at a time, but why is there no movement at all when our bait goes down?" Xilai walked around, unable to sit still at all.
"Why are you so anxious? It will take a while for the fish to come over and eat the bait. If we lift the bait up, wouldn't it just let the fish go?" Xiao Dao Zhang was not anxious at all.
"Get up and take a look. Just take a look." Xilai looked at the little Taoist priest with pleading eyes.
The little Taoist was about to get up and give Xi a look. At this time, the fish float suddenly moved: "Stop being silent, the fish is coming."
The fish floated and moved, and Xilai was very anxious: "Hurry up, little Daoist, pull the hook quickly, or the fish will run away."
"Why are you so anxious? I haven't bitten the hook yet." said the little Taoist Master.
Just when the fish float suddenly sank, the director quickly grabbed the fishing rod and pulled it up slightly. There was a pulling force in the water, and it was obvious that the fish had taken the bait.
The twine is very thick, and its strength is no worse than that of ordinary fishing line, so you don’t need to worry about the fishing line breaking. The fishing rod is also very thick, so you don’t have to worry about the rod not being able to bear it when you catch a fish weighing several kilograms. Therefore,
The two boys directly used brute force to pull the fish up.
In fact, the fishhook made with a sewing needle was the easiest to break when pulled with such brute force. But the fishhook made by Xiaodao Zhang withstood the test of brute force. Not long after, a herring weighing more than one kilogram was
He was pulled up from the water by the Taoist priest and Xilai.
"Be careful with the fishhook, it's very sharp." Xilai reminded him quickly when he saw the Taoist priest going to get the fishhook.
"Who said just now that we should pull up the fishhook and take a look?" the little Taoist asked with a smile.
