Chapter 683: The Wisher Takes the Bait

"Come on, rice bucket, let's go, move to a nest!" Jin Er walked a few steps with a full set of fishing gear, and looked back to see that the rice bucket actually lay down to digest.

On the other hand, Xueqiu followed closely behind Xiaoxue and did not stray too far away.

The rice bucket glanced at the master lazily, smacked his lips, and didn't intend to follow, as if he had just finished the basics and everything was boring.

Jin Er: "..." Forget it, leave it alone, it can't be lost in the villa area anyway.

Seeing that both of his hands are full, Xiaoxue also has a fishing rod and a fishing net under his armpit, and wants to help him carry the plastic bucket, but he sternly refuses—"If your father finds out, I will let you carry it Bucket, you have to break into the door in the middle of the night and fight with me!"

It was rare for someone to ask him about fishing, so he used all his previous knowledge to search for suitable fish nests carefully.

He often fishes by the artificial lake, mainly to enjoy the tranquility here, which allows him to temporarily escape from the commercial affairs in the world of mortals, let go of his thoughts and emotions, and simply enjoy the fishing process without thinking about anything. Instead, flashes of inspiration will burst out unconsciously.

Especially in winter, the villa area is surprisingly quiet, much quieter than those fishing spots in the wild. There is not even the sound of birds, cicadas, and wind blowing leaves in spring, summer, and autumn. Like a mirror, it is refreshing. It would be even better if it catches up with the snowy weather. I am alone in a boat and fishing for snow in the cold river. Therefore, he often puts an empty bait to seek tranquility, and when the float moves, ripples will be produced on the water surface and in his heart.

There is no such quiet place in the wild, but the safety is worrying.

He is not really a professional fisherman, but he has been fishing here for a long time, and he knows the topography of the artificial lake well, and he can roughly guess the gathering area of ​​crucian carp underwater.

He glanced around, pointed to an area by the lake with his chin raised, and said, "Xiaoxue, look there. There is a corner of the artificial lake over there. The water flow under that piece of ice is relatively slow, and it is sheltered from the wind and sunny, and it contains enough oxygen. Fishing is exquisite. 'Winter fishing for the sun', according to my experience, there should be big crucian carp under that piece of ice."

"Oh." Xiaoxue carefully avoided the mud under her feet, otherwise she would be scolded again when she got home, "Isn't this an artificial lake? The water under the ice is still flowing?"

"Although it is an artificial lake, there are water pumps under the water to maintain the circulation of the water flow, otherwise it will become stagnant water?" Jin Er said, "The annual property fees are not in vain."

Although Xiaoxue didn't know how much the property fee would be paid every year, she thought it was very reasonable.

Jin Er found flat ground by the lake, put down his fishing gear,

I poked the thin ice with a dipping net pole, and immediately pushed the thin ice aside.

Looking sideways, the rice bucket followed, but he didn't get close, as if he was guarding against Xueqiu, or losing his temper for what happened just now.

He unfolded the folding chair and let Xiaoxue sit down.

Even if Xiaoxue had no common sense, she knew that a fisherman should sit, otherwise who would be able to stand holding the pole for a long time, so she said no to sit, and asked Jin Er to sit down.

Jin Er didn't show any politeness. After sitting down, he groped around in the incubator for a while and pulled out an earthworm that was still wriggling.

"It's disgusting!" Xiaoxue wrinkled her face and looked away, not wanting to look more.

"Hey, although earthworms are a bit disgusting, earthworms must be used to hold crucian carp in winter. Haven't you heard a saying? Flour bait in Lixia catches grass carp, and earthworms in winter are good for crucian carp!"

Jin Er explained triumphantly, but he misunderstood, because Xiaoxue felt disgusted, not because the earthworms were disgusting, but because he felt that Jin Er put the earthworms as bait and the roasted chicken legs as food in the same incubator. nausea……

He took out the thin hook and thin fishing line used for winter fishing, strung them on the fishing rod, and strung the wriggling earthworms into the hook. After finishing it, he didn't rush to hook it, but took out a little fermented glutinous rice bibimbap from the incubator, sprinkled it evenly on the water surface, stirred it a little, and made it half-floating and half-sinking in the water—this is the bait, used to lure the fish into the water. Make the fish school gather further.

After completing the preparations, he sat on the fishing chair, flicked the fishing line casually, and the fishhook slammed into the water with the earthworms, splashing a small splash, and ripples spread on the water surface in circles. The remaining fish floated up and down on the water. After a while, the float also calmed down.

Then came the long wait.

Fishing is a tough sport, and it is also related to luck—even if all signs show that this area is suitable for crucian carp to lurk, as for whether there are crucian carp underwater, only God knows.

Xiaoxue stood for a while, and when she was tired, she squatted down. When she squatted until her legs became numb, she stood up again, and she had to be careful not to lie on the muddy ground and turn into a mudball.

The idiot doesn't care about these things, he rolls when he should, and lies down when he should, and often sticks his tongue out on all fours and pretends to be dead. He must have been a showman in his previous life.

Jin Er was usually not in a hurry to fish, but today he was in a hurry, not wanting to lose face in front of Xiaoxue, he stared at the motionless float with a sad face, trying to restrain the urge to change places.

He reflected on whether he would make a mistake in the depth of his rods. There is a special thing about fishing, that is, "fishing deep in winter", which means that the rods in winter should be deeper than the other three seasons, but not too deep. On sunny days, it should be slightly shallower than on cloudy days. The depth of about 2.5 meters in the downswing is just right, so he is right.

Fishing requires patience, and luring fish also requires patience. In winter, the water flow is slow, and the sense of smell of crucian carp will also become dull. It takes only 20 to 30 minutes to respond to the bait like in spring, summer, and autumn. It often takes one or two hours to wait—provided that there are indeed fish underwater. Otherwise, even if you wait for an hour or two, you will be waiting in vain.

If you can’t bear to change fish nests frequently, you will end up empty-handed. Therefore, it is basically true to say that fishing can cultivate one’s morality, but if you think about it in another way, only those who want to cultivate their morality can tolerate fishing... An impatient person only needs to try it once, and he will never fish again.

Jin Er didn't want Xiaoxue to wait with him, so he suggested: "Xiaoxue, why don't you go home and eat cake first, and then come out after eating, or your mother may come looking for you."

This is also the reason Xiaoxue thinks about, if mother comes out to look for her, it will inevitably be nagging again, maybe she will have to apologize to Jin Er, saying that her daughter disturbed your pleasure...

So she called Snowball home together, and made an appointment to come back after eating the cake.

However, when she finished eating the cake, drank the black tea, and ran to the lake again, Jin Er's plastic bucket was still empty.

"Cough...Xiaoxue...today's calendar..." Jin Er tried to explain with a face of embarrassment.

At this moment, the fish float made a splash, and then sank suddenly.

"Damn it! I bit the hook!"

Excited, Jin Er uttered foul language that he hadn't uttered for many years.
