The float hit the water, swung a few times, and quickly returned to calm.
Guan Lang casually threw a twenty-centimeter-long yellow tail into the bucket.
If you cheat, it won't work.
He sighed.
Through the invisible power of Tai Chi, if he simply wanted to catch fish, it would be very easy.
Unfortunately, the long-term side mission of Fishing Illustration was too strict, which prevented him from using external assistance.
Not to mention using Tai Chi to directly catch the fish ashore, even using special power to gather the fish around the bait and accelerate the hooking is not efficient.
Only when the fish is out of the water can it be lifted using Tai Chi.
Guan Lang held the fishing rod firmly and looked at the sky in the distance with his mind free.
Occasionally when he gets tired of drawing, he will go fishing like this to relieve stress, and also to advance the progress of long-term side tasks.
There is an ancient ginkgo tree in the distance behind. It is said to be hundreds of years old. The crown of the tree is lush, and the thick trunk stretches out like a big umbrella covering the sky.
As a popular photo-taking spot, many tourists naturally gather there.
Guan Lang could hear the laughter of tourists coming from afar while sitting on the shore.
He sat back on the small folding chair and yawned lazily.
I was lucky today. Most of the fish I caught were not species registered in the fishing guide.
Look at the fishing guide progress 26/30.
He nodded.
If this good luck can continue in the future, we should be able to complete the current collection task in one go this time.
The water in the river was not very clear, but with Guan Lang's eyesight, he could barely see the swaying shadows of a few fish slowly swimming upstream.
He suddenly remembered the saying "chicken soup, sick fish, go down the river with the current, good fish go upstream."
But the fact is that most fish like to swim upstream.
This is not because they are born stubborn or to exercise, but because the countercurrent water flows quickly, which makes it easier for them to replenish oxygen, and the physiological structure of the fish's gills also determines that they need to resist the water flow to avoid being impacted by the reverse direction of the gills.
organ.
While he was thinking, a big fish seemed to smell his carefully prepared bait and slowly approached the hook.
After testing for a few seconds, it saw no movement. It couldn't bear it any longer, and just took a mouthful of the bait that exuded an amazing aroma and allure.
"Whoosh!"
Guan Lang pulled the fish out of the water neatly and neatly. The leaping silhouette of the fish caused splashes of water, and the sun shone on the swaying water drops, giving off a dazzling light.
The fish fell steadily into Guan Lang's hands, and he gently held it and looked at it.
This fish looks a little strange, with a particularly raised dorsal fin and a pale red body.
"Fish species No. 27: mullet fish."
Guan Lang looked at the system fishing guide and read its information.
If I remember correctly, it seems to be a Class II protected fish.
Guan Lang sighed and gave up the idea of trying anything.
Gently remove the fishhook from its lip. Since he used Tai Chi to protect it after leaving the shore, it did not cause any excessive harm to it.
Guan Lang put it back into the water and watched it gradually disappear into the water.
That’s okay, it’s not a loss. Anyway, the fishing guide has been registered.
Guan Lang sat by the river until almost noon.
"Ding dong! Congratulations on completing the second phase of the long-term side mission Fishing Encyclopedia. Fish species: 30/30."
"Get rewarded: 2 standard units of innate vitality."
“Next Stage: 30/80”
Guan Lang felt that his body was suddenly filled with a part of the innate true energy, and he was quite satisfied with the reward.
It is equivalent to the energy contained in two years of acquired internal strength.
However, it is actually quite in line with the difficulty of the task. At first glance, thirty species of fish may not sound difficult to catch, but considering the high frequency of common domestic fish appearing on the scene, he actually caught far more than thirty fish. This fishing guide
The second stage took him a lot of effort.
It’s just that he evenly divides his fishing time into his leisure time, so it doesn’t feel too cumbersome.
But the tasks in the third stage should not be so easy to complete. After all, the difficulty increases exponentially as you go to the back and want to collect and catch new fish species.
Maybe I need to go to different places more often. There will be many new fish species in different waters.
Guan Lang suddenly felt the deep meaning behind this long-term fishing mission. His feelings were not letting him fish, but indirectly encouraging him to travel around the world.
In the later stages, if he wanted to collect new fish species, he would have to trek to other waters to fish, otherwise he might not be able to catch new species for several days and half a month.
Cunning, very cunning.
Guan Lang sighed as he put away the folding chair, picked up a bucket full of fish and walked towards the yard.
"Hmph"
Humming a tune softly, he took out the keys from his coat pocket.
Turn it with a click and push the door open.
"Huh huh?" Guan Lang stepped into the courtyard gate, and his good mood was suddenly extinguished.
Putting down the fish bucket, he strode towards the corner of the yard with his brows raised.
I saw that the neat family farm he had cultivated turned into a mess.
All the tomatoes that had grown were picked.
There were many footprints scattered on the soil, and the branches and vines were trampled and broken mercilessly.
Where did this little thief come from?
Guan Lang was furious.
He has been waiting for these tomatoes to grow for more than a week.
As a result, a thief got there first. He broke into a house and took it away, leaving his place in a mess.
Guan Lang thought he had a good temper, but now he was a little annoyed.
He glanced around a few times with sharp eyes, and found a few faint gray shoe prints on the wall of the courtyard nearby.
The one who came in over the wall, judging from the shoe prints, should be a person.
When he came to water it this morning, it was still intact, which means it was dug in while he was fishing.
Judging from the freshness of the sap from the branches that were broken by trampling, it probably hasn't been gone for too long.
Guan Lang took out his mobile phone and used the surveillance app to bring up the fast forward speed to view the surveillance videos of the last two hours.
Sure enough, fifty minutes ago, a middle-aged man in a gray jacket climbed onto the courtyard wall and entered the courtyard.
He used snakeskin bags to pick all the tomatoes, garlic, and eggplants, but the watermelons did not grow, so he survived.
During this period, he also tried to push the doors of each wing, but because they were all locked, he could not enter.
Guan Lang sat on the chair and propped up his chin to watch the video of him coming in for more than ten minutes.
What to do? He was thinking.
The person has been gone for more than half an hour and is already far away.
No matter how powerful he is, he can't catch him.
But he couldn't bear to let him go.
And who knows if he will come back next time? At least teach him a lesson.
Is it possible to steal the fruits that he locked up in someone’s house?
Should I call the police? Will I think he is causing trouble, just for some fruits and vegetables?
Just when he was struggling, a flash of thought suddenly flashed across his mind.
