"However, it is rare for golden crucian carp to grow to such a big size." Uncle Zhang said with emotion.
The difference between crucian carp and koi is like the difference between ordinary players and gold players.
Koi carp can grow to one or two meters long and weigh hundreds of kilograms, but common individuals of koi carp can only grow to about 250 grams, and the largest individual only weighs 2.5 kilograms.
But the one in front of me should weigh about seven or eight kilograms and be more than fifty centimeters long. It can be called the giant in the crucian carp family.
The most eye-catching thing is that the texture on its body seems to be on fire, coupled with the fluttering tail, it is like a group of flexible flames. Compared with the normal crucian carp's shriveled and thin body, it is much taller.
It is more like the body shape of a koi carp, with smooth and tight lines, like the curved strings of a strong bow.
Although the driver, Uncle Zhang, had no research on ornamental fish, he could predict that the golden crucian carp would fetch a high price just because of its body shape.
Guan Lang actually didn't know the species of the fish he caught. He only figured it out after the Tangtang family driver explained it.
He also thought it was a koi carp.
But he won't tell this little secret.
Guan Lang stood aside and nodded pretending to agree.
Even though it was just a golden crucian carp, it was the first big fish he caught that weighed several kilograms, and it looked so beautiful, so it was still very memorable.
Guan Lang admired it for a while, then silently opened the system page in his mind.
The moment the golden crucian carp was caught in the net, the sound of completion of the side mission rang in his mind.
This side task took a lot of effort from his boss, and he wanted to see the task reward given by the system.
"Congratulations on completing the side mission: Come on, fish!"
Mission details: As a hero, it is inevitable to eat and sleep in the open. Wild fishing is an important skill when going out. Please practice your wild fishing skills and catch at least 3 fish today.
Mission reward: 1 month of acquired internal strength, 2 character experience points, and 4 fishing skill proficiency points.
The 4 points of fishing proficiency plus the 1 point of proficiency he gained from practicing today directly raised his fishing skills to level 2 (0/10)
From a novice fisherman to a skilled angler.
A lot of new knowledge was poured into my mind, such as how to choose fishing positions, drift adjustment techniques, habits of common fish, homemade bait recipes, etc.
Although there is no fixed method for fishing, there are still some basic rules that can help fishermen increase the probability of catching fish.
Guan Lang looked at the reward and was a little disappointed.
He originally thought that this fishing side mission had been completed with twists and turns, and the rewards should be richer.
Unexpectedly, it was still the same as before, and the reward was not much in terms of acquired internal strength, only one month's worth of skills.
What's the use of proficiency in fishing skills? He is a student and has no hobby or habit of fishing. There is no use in improving his fishing skills.
But he didn't want to think about it. In fact, the reward for this task was already very generous. It directly increased a skill that he had not mastered to the second level, which is the level of a skilled enthusiast. It was only because he had a bad fishing day that the reward was changed.
had exorbitant expectations.
However, before he could complain, the system beeped again.
"Publishing a long-term large-scale side mission: Fishing Illustrated Book"
Mission details: As the saying goes, a hero who cannot fish is not a good hero. As a decent hero, your fishing guide should have fish species found in various river basins. It is the footprint of your travels around the world. Players are invited
Fill in the fishing guide as much as possible to catch a richer variety of fish.
Task rewards will be distributed in stages.
The system gentleman seemed to want to slap Guan Lang in the face and let Guan Lang make good use of his fishing skills, and immediately released a long-term side mission.
Guan Lang's eyes twitched a few times.
Well, since the system released the task, he reluctantly accepted the reward. If there is another fishing task next, his fishing skills really need to be improved.
But, to be honest, I feel that the tasks issued by the system are getting more and more confusing. Do heroes have to be able to fish? What a far-fetched explanation.
The general feeling is that the system felt that he was not satisfied with the reward of the previous task, and immediately took remedial measures to make the reward more meaningful.
Guan Lang was thinking about little conspiracy theories about the system in his mind.
Guan Lang opened the fishing illustrated book, and there were already three types of fish patterns on it, namely the crucian carp, black carp and golden crucian carp he caught today.
However, the pattern of the golden crucian carp emits a slight red light, which looks different from the other two fish.
Guan Lang tapped on the icon of the golden crucian carp and its detailed information popped up.
Chinese name: Jin crucian carp
Diet: Omnivorous
Distribution area: Found in various waters in China except the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau
Years of survival: 18 years and 2 months
Description: As a naturally born magical mutant, it exceeds the lifespan limit of this species and has a higher affinity for internal energy than ordinary creatures. Although it has not yet reached the star rating of an included pet, it still has
It has certain training value.
No wonder this golden crucian carp is so much larger than the average one. It turns out to be a special mutant and it has lived for so many years.
Guan Lang was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that he was so lucky. Although the golden crucian carp he caught has not reached the pet level included in the system, judging from the description, it is not far away and has the potential to become a special pet.
Noticing that there was a small white treasure box on the details page of Jincrucian Carp, Guan Lang clicked on it.
Special individual collection reward: acquired internal strength in 3 months (distributed)
It’s okay, a pleasant surprise.
He is still more than six years away from reaching the ten-year minimum limit for upgrading his internal power. Although internal power is the most basic reward, it is not bad, and he is one step closer to being upgraded to innate true energy.
In addition to this treasure chest, Guan Lang also found a dimly colored treasure chest in the fishing illustrated book.
Just click on it and the instructions will pop up.
This reward can be unlocked only after reaching ten types of fishing fish. Players are also requested to work harder!
After browsing the system page, Guan Lang quickly exited the system space. There were still people outside, so he couldn't stay for too long, otherwise it would look very strange for him to be in a daze in reality.
Fortunately, he didn't spend much time. Within a few dozen seconds, Tang Tang and the driver Lao Zhang were concentrating on admiring the fiery crucian carp in the fish tank and did not notice his distraction.
The fish tank that Lao Zhang bought is not small in size, but because the size of this golden crucian carp is really over the standard, it still looks a bit crowded inside.
After watching the fish for a while, the three of them set off on their way back to Tiannan.
It was getting late, the silver moon was shining brightly, and the rain had just fallen in the afternoon. There were no clouds in the sky, making this late spring and early summer night a little more dry and clear.
Lao Zhang drove his car to the community where Guan Lang was and dropped him off first.
After the fishing incident, his impression of Guan Lang improved a lot.
However, he would still tell Guan Lang to Tang Tang's father that he was just a driver, and before leaving, he had been asked to find out the reason for Tang Tang's late return.
Stay in your position, do your job, and fulfill your responsibilities.
