 Chapter 67: Fishing... Who is fishing?

Yan Mo didn't let the two of them show up, he didn't move, and now is not the best time to go out.

Even so, the frightened little Mer-boy showed fearful eyes at Big Eyes and quickly slid from the shore to the lake.

"La Ruo, are you leaving?" Big Eyes looks at the sky and saw that it was early so he didn't understand why the little Mer-boy will go back now, they used to play together till it was very late, the little The Mer-boy will catch the fish give them to him, and he would secretly hid the fish in the parcel and brought it back, salted it and sent it to La Ruo. Big Eyes wanted to asked La Ruo if they could bring a friend tomorrow.

The Mer-people look back at them and look at the place where the sound is coming. "I will come again tomorrow." He will bring his brother tomorrow, so he won't be afraid.

"Wait, I wanted to bring a person tomorrow, can I?" Big Eyes shouted and he didn't know if The Little Mer-Boy had heard this sentence, he had slipped into the water.

Big Eyes and Sa feel very a pitiful. Big Eyes eyes didn't know what to say to The Eyebrows!

The two children probably felt bored and went back.

Yan Mp looked at the two warriors and told them to not say anything what they saw today.

The two warriors were fast to agree.

Going back to the place of residence, Yan Mo acted like he did not know about the incident. He did not go to the two bratty children, he began to prepare.

The next day, before he was still bright, he called the two warriors. Before leaving the place, he let people inform the three children to avoid the class today.

This time he rushed to the lake. He didn't let the two warriors get close, he made them stay outside the woods and explain to them unless they heard his cry for help, otherwise they should not approach the lake. But the plan is not as good as change.

"It's cold, you can't just stand alone outside, you can do more activities, you can make a fire."

“But..." The two warriors were grateful, but obviously not at ease.

"Nothing, I will call you if there is something." Yan Mo patted them and asked them to hand him the stone pot and slate. He took the two men mainly to make coolies.

The two warriors thought of Priest Da Ren's last resort to deal with the little monsters, and thought if they were nearby it's okay and they reluctantly agreed to let Yan Mo go to the lake alone.

Yan Mo turned back. "Right, give me more than a bunch of dead branches and dead leaves they're useful."

Yan Mo put the stone pot on his head and the slate stone to his hand and walked through the woods coming to the lake and put down the burden of having to go back into the woods and the two warriors together to collect the dead leaves and dead branches nearby, the three people joined hands and collected a lot in half an hour.

Yan Mo didn't take it for himself. He had to let the two warriors help him to send these to the shore of the lake. When the things were put down, he didn't let people go immediately. Now that he has arrived, he will have to shovel the snow on the ground. Stack a windproof wall, the wind on the lake is too fast!

The two warriors worked hard, and shoveled out an open space three or two times, and revealed a frozen land below.

Yan Mo piled the dead leaves on the small open space. The two warriors gathered the snow around them, beat it tightly, and made a temporary windproof wall for Yan Mo.

The two warriors probably saw that Yan Mo was going to make a fire, and one of them gave him a few stones and made a fire pit.

“Thank you." Yan Mo expressed his heartfelt gratitude. The two men were so useful, mainly because they had eyesight and did not him to tell they just instinctively know what comes next.

The two warriors smiled and were not polite. They also wanted to help Yan Mo to make a fire. Yan Mo refused. The two warriors saw that there was nothing more to do and they left.

Yan Mo knew how to make a fire. He didn't use ice to ignite such a slow way. Instead, he untied a small stone tube wrapped in animal skin from his waist.

If this small stone tube was not made by Yuan Zhan who could fine tune his control the stone, it may not be able to be made

He pulled the plug of the stone pipe, swayed the smoldering hay from the inside, blown out the fire flints and turned them to the gathered dead leaves, and the dead leaves caught fire.

It is a pity that this simple fire-storage stone tube can not besealed. The smoldering hay inside will burn out after a long time, and it can not be carried for a long time on the road. However, it is basically no problem for one hour or so.

Yan Mo quickly put a dry root on the roots, paying attention to leaving a gap to facilitate their full combustion, and now he is no stranger to the skill of making fire

When the fire was ignited, he laboriously placed the stone pot on the stone, and used the wooden bowl and wooden spoon to carry the snow and pour it into the stone pot.

If The Little Mer-Boy would not be greedy, he doesn't believe it, and his cooking is not comparable to the two children who only salt fish.

As for the Little The Mer-Boy came out to see if was going to run again, Yan Mo was not very worried.

If the Little Mer-Boy is not afraid of Big Eyes and Sa, who is around 12 years old, his body age is only fourteen ot fifteen, and his face is honest and sly, how can he scare the Mer-Boy who came out?

Yan Mo touched his head, since Jiu Feng was sleeping, he doesn't have to worry about his hair, and he doesn't have to shave anymore. Now he has grown a layer of hair.

It is said that his hair growth seems to be affected by his mood. When Jiu Feng frequently pecked his head hair there were many empty patches on his head, he thought that the hair that has been pecked will not grow again.

 It didn't last long, but this time he thought that the head hair finally had no bird to peck it, and the lice on his body also went away after he used medicine and hair removal, and since the coldness, his hair always looked warmth. As a result, the hair grew well, although the speed of hair growth is not very fast.




In order to make a good impression on the Little Mer-Boy Yan Mo specially cleaned himself up before going out. His face was washed clean, and the homemade simple anti-freeze cream was also put on his face. The fur jacket that Yuan Zhan stole for him was also carefully cleaned, and worn.

However, because Yan Mo was afraid of cold, although he cleaned himself up, he looked like an awkward thing from a distance, and matched his head with only a little hair. He looked like a gray small cactus ball

He pulled a goat leg out of the herbal bag. Because of its various nourishing effects, mutton meat was accepted by the herbal medicine package, but it is limited to the fresh meat that is slaughtered and immediately put in the bag. If the meat is older as long as there is a little deterioration, the herbal package will refuse the mutton.

He didn't know if The Mer-people couldn't eat lamb, but if The Mer-people didn't eat it. He could eat it. On a cold day, if you can eat a pot of stewed lamb, it's a good life.

The mutton that has been cut with a scalpel was mixed with various herbs that added flavor to the taste were placed in the pot in a particular order. Yan Mo will no longer take care of the pot, and since there is enough snow in it, he is not afraid to burn the pot quickly.

He picked up a long branch with a fork at the top that he had just stirred. He stepped on the rock on the shore of the lake and approached the edge of the ice and the lake. Finally, stepped on a large stone.

Then he took a bunch of twine from his arms. This is one of the finished products that The Awu Tribe dedicated to him before he left.

This group of twine is a bit rough, but it is used for fishing, so it will be broken easily if you can avoid pulling it fast.

Yes, this guy is ready to go fishing. He has all the things ready before he came. He wanted to compare a salted fish that has been dead for a long time with fresh grilled fish and fish soup.

At the end of fishing hook he used a gold needle. Although he was distressed for using his precious gold needle but he did not find a suitable substitute and could only replace the hook with a gold needle. Fortunately, he has a total of 72 gold needles, one less, and later when he can finds the right materials the gold needle can be re-made.

On the twine, the branch was tied with a fork, and the hook is tightly tied with the twine. On the hook, he also squeezes a small piece of cooked meat into the bait.

He raised his hand, the twine was pulled out, and the hook was dropped into the water.

The two handsome Mer-people who were responsible for patrolling the shore of the lake looked at the big man sitting in the distance and he looked like a human boy. It was strange for someone like him to in places like these.

"Xi Meng, what do you think the kid is doing?"

Xi Meng observed for a moment and shook his head. "I can't see it."

"It seems that there are a lot of little human becoming new neighbors."

The Mer-people boy ran out to play with human children. After playing and playing for so many days, they couldn't find any harm coming to it but seeing only two little human children were not malicious to La Ruo, they were just keeping vigilance, and they have not stopped the child fr playing with those human children. Their Chief also knows.

"Dai Wen, what do you think the Chief meant? Is he going to expel these humans?" Before the discovery of the two children, they discovered The Awu Tribe, who came to pick up firewood from the woods on the shore of the lake. However, they have never had human living here, and they do not know how these human beings are. The leader did not immediately issue instructions for expulsion.

"I don't know. La Ruo seems to like the fish brought by the two humans. I don't know if the fish is poisoned."

"I smell a strange smell, like from the snow and it passed behind the wall. What did the kid get behind the snow wall?" They didn't see it very clearly because of the angle problem.

"Hey?"

"What?"

"The fish is moving closer to the strange thing that hanged into the water."

"Lets go look at it?"

"Okay, be careful, don't let him find out!" The Mer-people said then they swam to the place where the hook was

Yan Mo saw the twine floating, and immediately picked up the fishing rod, but... It was empty, nothing. Then he looked at the hook and saw that the meat on it is gone.

Yan Mo didn't expect to catch fish once or twice. He was not a fishing man. In the original world, one of his relaxing entertainments was fishing. When he was upset or wanted to rest, he would go out and catch a fish for a day.

If it is not too cold at the lake, there were too many things on hand, he has long wanted to come out fishing to relax.

Another piece of meat was inserted into the hook, and the twine was again thrown into the lake.

But once, twice, three times, every time he saw the hooks move, but when he lifted the rods, he only saw the empty hooks.

What is going on? How are the fish in this lake so smart?

It stands to reason that for fish that have never been deceived with bait, it is not difficult to catch a fish, not to mention the fish in the lake are quiet plenty. He has seen a lot of ripples under the water, and there are obviously fish gathering.

Unfortunately, there are ice floats on the lake. He pulled the hooks farther away. Because of the depth and the floating willow grass under the lake, even if the lake is very clear, the visibility is not very high.

Dai Wen took the meat from the hook and stuffed it into his mouth. He licked it. "It tastes good, it is a little portion though. This kid is too stingy."




"Yeah, since you eat the fish, you lose a big chunk of fish obvious it so small, and there is not much taste." Xi Meng complained, then said: "The next time its my turn."

"But humans are very smart and even figured out how to fish in this way." Wen commented that they saw the curved fish hooks, and they naturally guessed the intention of hooks

"The material of this thing is a bit strange."

"Well, maybe we can give him better material to exchange for his meat?"

"Hey? Do you think he wanted fish?" Xi Meng was anxious, he only ate two pieces of meat, one less than Dai Wen. "Quickly, catch the fish and insert it into him."

 I didn't catch the fish when I closed the line. Yan Mo was a little impatient. Plus cold, he couldn't wait.

This is last time I fish.

Yan Mo once again slammed the hook.

Xi Meng grabbed the hook and hurriedly took the meat from the top and stuffed it into his mouth. Then he hung the fish that Dai Wen had just caught on the hook. "Okay."

 On the stone, Yan Mo felt the weight. .

This must have caught some! Yan Mo was so excited that he quickly though how to cook the fish.

A fish was pulled out of the water by his tail.

Throwing the fat fish, which looks like a grass carp, to the snow on the shore of the lake, Yan Mo was not worried about someone stealing his fish, nor was he afraid that the fish will escape. On such a cold day, the fish will not The water will soon be frozen.

With the results, naturally he didn't want to go right away. Yan Mo planned to look at the hook several times. He sets himself ten times, no matter how much he catches, he goes ashore.

This time he inserted a piece of meat that was two times larger than before. He felt that the meat before it was too small. The fish in the lake was bigger, and the fish had no bite.

"Come here!" Two of The Mer-people are excited.

"This time is bigger! Sure enough, I have to give the bigger fish."

"Fast, catch three fish for him."

The two handsome Mer-peoples at the lake were happy, and Yan Mo on the lake is also very happy to get fish. Basically, you can catch three fish with one hook, and the bigger the meat, the bigger the fish he caught. He put a thumb-sized piece of meat directly on the hook.

A Mer-man with a silvery fishtail at the bottom of the lake swam to the top of the lake and quickly approached Dai Wen and Xi Meng. “What are you doing?"

The Mer-men were not talking in voice, but using another way of communication.

“Luo Meng!" The two handsome Mer-men of The Mer-people saw that the other physically strong Mer-man had come they had a panic and embarrassment of being caught doing a bad thing.

“Did you smell something strange?" Luo Meng waited for the two to explain.

Suddenly.

On the lake, fishing had gotten cold and Yan Mo has a sense of accomplishment.

Counting, he has caught four fish, and one is better than a fat meat he put on! Even if he doesn't hunt, he can't die if he goes fishing! Wow haha! Wait, what is this?

What--! His stewed lamb!

Yan Mo finally remembered the pot of stewed lamb he had cooked on the shore of the lake. The fishing activity was so happy that he completely forgot the pot.

Yan Mo refused to fish again, and quickly stepped on the stone to go ashore.

The stone pot has been burned, and some of the lamb and herbs were already on the bottom of the pot. But fortunately, the bottom of the fire because no one added firewood, the fire was already very small, otherwise the things in the pot may have been burnt up.

Yan Mo quickly added snow water, stirred the bottom of the pot, added dead branches to the fire, and was sweating.

"Hey, you human."

Yan Mo was surprised and immediately looked up and saw three sharp-edged harpoons aimed at him.

"What are you doing here? Can you understand our words?" Luo Meng extended his long fingertips to poke the boy's head. He was more curious about how the hair on his head could be so short, it looked furry and made people look at at the human want to bully it

Yan Mo groaned, and wanted to pretend to be afraid, considering his Priest status that he would definitely be exposed in the future. After a sigh of relief, he slowly launched a kind smile.

"Who are you? My name is Yan Mo."

Listening to Yan Mo who can speak their language and was not afraid of them. The three Mer-people were very happy.

"I, Luo Meng. This is Xi Meng and Dai Wen. We are the Long-Tailed Clan of The Mer-people. We live in this lake."

   Perhaps the younger ones are more pleasing to the eye. Luo Meng doesn't have much to worry about Yan Mo. There are few foreign enemies, and his alert is not high.

The Long-Tail Clan? Is there a Short-Tail Clan? Do The Mer-people have their own tribes and clans like humans? Yan Mo guessed.

“I am from the Jiu Yuan tribe. Our tribal residence is some distance away from here. I came here to fish." Yan Mo made a slightly shy expression. “This lake is big and bigger than other lakes. I think there will be a lot of fish here."

"How many people are in your tribes?" Luo Meng asked.

Yan Mo thought about the answer, if he said little will it make them think they can be invaded and driven away? If he say more, will they regard them as imaginary enemies?

However, his focus now is to make powerful neighbors not regard Jiu Yuan as threats. It may not be wise to show strength now, because they are not really strong. It would be better to let The Mer-people feel that their new neighbors feel that they are more aggressive and more stronger than Jiu Yuan.

“Not much." Yan Mo said honestly: “We have just migrated because we couldn't stay at our original place."

"Hey? Why do you want to migrate? Have you met the ferocious beast?" There was a powerful underwater beast these places.

Hey no one is invincible its is not safe even in the water.




Yan Mo nodded. "We met a group of dwarf monsters like humans. They are only a bit high, but they are very fierce, and they eat people. They killed us as prey. Although we killed them, we don't know if they could still come back. How many people can we loose so we can only migrate because we have many children, women and old people who have no fighting strength."

Luo Meng looked at each other. They didn't think that a young child would lie, only that what he said it was truth.

Xi Meng couldn't help it. After smelling it, he quickly interrupted: "Yan Mo, what are you doing? Is it cooking?"

 It tastes weird, but Xi Meng can't help but want to taste it.

Dai Wen and Luo Meng were also very curious. They didn't come over to threaten this human child, but they were mainly attracted by this strange smell.

Yan Mo listened to what they asked and immediately laughed. "This is a mutton pot. It is cooked with herbs. Do you want some?"

The three people nodded together ferociously. Anyway, do they want to expel these human beings. In the end, you still have to listen to the Chief orders and he said they don't have to expel these humans now. Moreover, the little child that fed the fish with meat is pretty cute.

At the same time, in the original residence of The Awu Tribe.

Meng and The Awu Tribe were packing up, and Yuan Zhan left him with a road map. They agreed that they would migrate together after 30 days of their departure.

Most of The Awu women and children are busy collecting Flax fibers and using them to prevent them from being threaded. There are still a few elderly people who are smashing the skin hides, even if the weather drops into ice, they are still sitting on the edge of the frozen lake, rubbing the fur with snow, and removing the residue.

“Meng Da Ren." The Awu Tribe Chief came to Meng with a distressed look on his face.

“What?" Meng asked him.

"The woman... is crying again, and she doesn't want to eat."

Meng didn't care about swinging his hands. "Don't give her then if she doesn't eat, don't worry about her." He was waiting for the woman to get hungry, he will take the meat, then the woman will be willing to sleep with him.

"But..." The Awu Tribe Chief was very embarrassed. "The Priest said that she is also likely to be God's Priest. Everyone can't touch her body, and she can still..."

"What did she do?" Meng finally Face up.

The Awu Tribe Chief gritted his teeth. "She put her hand on Hei Pi who was responsible for guarding her last night, and Hei Pi was disabled and managed to walk this morning!"
