Chapter 359 People Can Make Nests
Lu Youyou took the dirty bowl to the kitchen, cleaned it up very quickly, and then put the clean bowl on the dish rack to drain before getting out of the car.
Back at her fishing spot, Lu Youyou cast her three-star fishing rod and hooked live bamboo worms onto both hooks.
"Suck~"
Liu Hui suddenly increased the speed and noise of her noodle eating, as if deliberately trying to attract Lu Youyou's attention.
Seeing that Lu Youyou ignored her, she made even louder noises.
This time, Lu Youyou reacted as she wished.
Lu Youyou took a pair of earplugs and put them on.
Liu Hui couldn't sit still any longer and anxiously said, "Hey, Ji Tian."
Lu Youyou tilted her head: "What are you doing?"
Liu Hui suddenly laughed: "Even with earplugs on, you can still hear me, right?"
Lu Youyou rolled her eyes.
She knew, of course, that earplugs wouldn't work for her now, after all, her hearing had been strengthened countless times.
But wearing earplugs is a way of showing her attitude; she was deliberately ignoring Liu Hui just now.
Why did Liu Hui seem to have something to say to him?
"Kita, are you confident you can catch a three-star fish?"
Lu Youyou said irritably, "I'm not confident. Who can be confident of catching a three-star fish in one go?"
As soon as she finished speaking, a slight electric current surged through her body.
This is a warning from the highly sensitive fishing float: a fish has taken the bait!
The moment my fingers touched the handle to reel in the line, the fishing rod lurched, almost bending at a 180-degree angle.
A big fish has arrived!
Lu Youyou turned the crank and used brute force to wind the thread onto the spinning wheel.
She was busy hanging up the line and ignored Liu Hui.
Liu Hui spoke but received no response, feeling awkward, and joined Lu Youyou in staring at the water.
"Wow!"
Two fish, one large and one small, were lifted into the air, their scales shimmering with iridescent colors in the sunlight.
[One 1-star red snapper: Weighs 5kg, brightly colored; perhaps you could use its scales to make jewelry.]
[One 1-star sturgeon: Weighing 60kg, a relatively common fish species, but this fish is large and has a high star rating.]
Lu Youyou deftly placed the two fish into the bucket, then hooked a bamboo worm onto the hook and dropped it into the water, finally having a chance to wipe her sweat.
That sturgeon was huge; it struggled even more fiercely in the water.
If her physical fitness hadn't improved, she really wouldn't have been able to pull her up.
"Jitian, what kind of fish were those two just now?" Liu Hui asked curiously. "Were they three-star fish?"
"No."
Lu Youyou lied through her teeth without the slightest discomfort.
In any case, only the person who catches the fish can see its star rating; outsiders can only rely on their own experience to identify it and cannot activate the virtual instruction manual at all.
Isn't it just letting her say whatever she wants?
"Really? I don't believe it."
"Believe it or not."
Because she caught two three-star fish, she had completed most of the task in no time. Lu Youyou was in a good mood and even had time to bicker with Liu Hui.
"Oda."
Zhen Youwei on the right suddenly spoke up.
"Your fishing technique just now was incorrect. You should reel in and let out the line appropriately based on the angle or the strength of the fish, instead of simply using brute force to reel in the line."
Lu Youyou stared at him for a few seconds, making him feel uncomfortable, before finally speaking.
"Thank you, Uncle Zhen. I'll try it next time I go fishing."
"Ah!"
Liu Hui scoffed, speaking sarcastically, "Thank you, Uncle Zhen~"
"You're so foul-mouthed, so I'll take it..."
Before he finished speaking, a familiar microcurrent spread throughout his body.
She quickly turned the crank and pulled a small fish out of the water.
[One 1-star halibut: weighs 6kg, edible.]
The watch buzzed, indicating that the task could be submitted.
Lu Youyou glanced at her watch and continued fishing as if nothing had happened.
"Xiaotian, didn't you already catch three? Why are you still fishing?"
Lu Youyou frowned, her eyes filled with impatience as she looked at Zhen Youwei.
"I only caught three fish, not three three-star fish, so I can't submit the quest."
Zhen Youwei waved his hand and chuckled, indicating that he would not speak.
Lu Youyou turned around, seemingly focused on fishing, but her mind was actually wandering.
Only five minutes had passed since she accepted the mission, but her fishing speed was so fast that it had already attracted the attention of many people.
If people find out that the fish I caught were of a high star rating, there's no guarantee that some trouble won't arise.
Why not fish a little longer? The fish you catch will be considered caught during the mission and can be used in future missions.
While I was thinking, another fish took the bait.
[Four-star crystal shrimp *1: Weight 0.002kg, non-toxic and edible.]
What kind of taste can you get from a tiny 2g shrimp? And it's rated four stars?
If it weren't for the highly sensitive float, she would never have seen the movement caused by the crystal shrimp.
Lu Youyou carefully picked the four-star crystal shrimp and put it into the infinite water bucket.
The continuous action of reeling in the fish was too obvious, and some people had already put away their fishing rods and come up behind Lu Youyou.
“Boss Ji, you’re not being honest. You sell us ordinary insects, but you use bamboo worms to fish yourself.”
Lu Youyou remained unfazed, sitting steadily on the bench, looking up at the man.
She could smell the sweat odor emanating from the burly, bald man who was quite close to her.
Lu Youyou frowned, her face stern, and dragged the stool back half a meter.
It was this very action that made the man think Lu Youyou was scared, so he pressed closer and closer.
"Don't come any closer," Lu Youyou said coldly.
"Sure, give me the bamboo worms! I don't need many, just give me a thousand."
"How many?"
"A thousand? What, you think that's not enough? Then ten thousand..."
"Oh!"
Before he could finish speaking, a huge gash appeared on the man's bald head.
Lu Youyou swung the stool wildly down, her arm leaving afterimages as she swung it.
"You want my things for free? You'll have to see if you're alive to take them!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Youyou stopped her final attack.
The man's head was flattened, a mixture of flesh, bone fragments, semen, and dirt, disgusting and terrifying.
Lu Youyou has never liked torture and killing, but in order to make an example of someone, she still chose to do so.
"vomit--"
It's unclear who vomited first, but the sound of retching could be heard from the shore.
Now that's good, no one will bother Lu Youyou anymore.
Those who wanted to take advantage of the situation were so nervous that they didn't even dare to look at Lu Youyou, and those who wanted to buy bamboo worms didn't dare to speak either.
Wow…
Lu Youyou's ears twitched; she seemed to hear the sound of flowing water.
Then, a strong smell of urine wafted over.
Lu Youyou turned to look at the disheveled Zhen Youwei, revealing a simple and harmless smile.
"Uncle Zhen, don't be afraid. I only kill bad people who want to take advantage of others."
"Yes...yes...Uncle Zhen isn't afraid."
Zhen Youwei's voice trembled, and his face kept shaking.
Feeling somewhat embarrassed, he turned his back to Lu Youyou and took deep breaths.
Lu Youyou stared at his back for a few seconds with a half-smile before shifting her gaze to the bald man lying on the ground.
It's so dirty; it's polluted the area where she was fishing.
Lu Youyou originally intended to throw the person into the mad snake cage to provide more nutrition for her mad snakes.
But with so many people secretly watching, it's best not to reveal too much information about yourself.
She kicked the man into the water.
Pfft!
Huge splashes of water rose from the surface, and the bright red color gradually spread.
Something was stirring in the water; a school of dark fish was approaching from afar, heading straight for the brightest red spot.
