Chapter 2 Why does it hurt to care a little bit?

"Here's half a sack of film, Willow..."

Zhu Wentian felt that if he could get the fish, he could share it with others. He had nothing to do and he had no books to read.

"What kind of fish are there in the river? The rice is about to be harvested, and it's not cold yet. It's obviously not rice from the Northeast. Indica rice is better for making rice noodles, especially the old one..."

He muttered as he sat on a washing stone by the river, opened the sack, and placed a willow branch next to it.

He needs to judge the geographical environment. Judging from the crops and temperature, it is definitely not the Yellow River Basin.

If it is the Yellow River Basin, the temperature must drop at this moment, and wheat should be grown at the same time.

Now he saw purple flowers, castor, perilla, and other grasses by the river.

At the same time, there is a bamboo forest on the other side of the river, a little further away. Take a closer look at the purple bamboo.

"It's still impossible to locate it. It's all from the south to the north of the Yangtze River. Unless you give me some reference points, such as special specialties. Okay, let's dig up earthworms."

Zhu Wentian connected the fishing rope to the fishing rod without a hook and tied it with two dead knots and two slip knots.

Dead knots are used to tie big knots, and slip knots are used to tie earthworms, eh? Grasshoppers in the field can also be used.

This method is most suitable for catching carnivorous fish. It will not let go when it bites, and the knot will be larger so that the fish cannot spit it out in a short time.

He used short branches to dig at the riverside and dug out earthworms and other insects, such as mole crickets.

It is still impossible to determine the specific geographical location through these. These things can be found in many places.

He cut the earthworm into several pieces and tied it to a slip knot. He picked up a long pebble and considered whether to add a pendant. If he added it, he would have to drag it. If he didn't add it, he would worry that the fish would not like to swallow the bait if it floated on the water.

"Leave it for now and let me catch a few fish!" Zhu Wentian said to himself and threw the bait to the water.

As soon as the bait hit the water, a fish popped its head out and swallowed it.

"Ouch! Oh my god!" Zhu Wentian hurriedly swung the pole and swung it back as hard as he could.

A fish measuring more than ten centimeters flew out and hit the wet soil with a pop.

"The mandarin fish weighs more than half a catty. It's so good to catch. Let's continue." Zhu Wentian unloaded the fish and put it on with the prepared wicker.

Then he caught fish one after another, including mullet, mandarin fish, minnow, and even grass carp. God knows why grass carp swallows live bait. This is unscientific.

He had previously considered using the bow fish technique to catch the fish, which would keep it alive for a while. But he was too busy at the moment, so just wear it! He would have to eat soon anyway.

He estimated that in about an hour, he used willow branches to pierce more than forty fish behind him.

It's not too big, so I can't catch it. The fish obviously swallowed the bait, but after a hard effort, it came off without the hook.

Generally, the weight is one kilogram, and the largest one weighs three kilograms or two.

"Brother Hanhan, brother Hanhan, what are you doing?"

"Fish, there is fish, Brother Hanhan caught a fish."

"Eat fish. Let's eat fish at noon today."

"Brother Hanhan knows how to fish!"

The voices of a group of children came. They ran behind Zhu Wentian and watched the fish cry with joy.

Each of them carried a small bamboo basket with a lid and grasshoppers inside.

Apparently they were catching grasshoppers in the rice fields to feed the chickens and ducks.

Zhu Wentian looked at the friends he played with in his memory: "Fish, fish! Silly, hehe!"

As he said this, he lifted the rod, and another mandarin fish over thirty centimeters was thrown up. This one was so big, it felt over four kilograms. It was not easy!

"Brother Hanhan, can you fish without a hook? Let me see. Here, I gave you the eggs this morning. The manager said no, so I picked them up."

A little girl took out a boiled egg and gave it to Zhu Wentian.

Zhu Wentian looked at the other person's withered and yellow hair with bifurcated ends, squeezed out a smile, heyed twice, took the egg and put it away.

A group of friends gathered around to look at the fishing tools. They waited for this silly guy to re-tie the bait and throw it into the water, and successfully caught a fish. They understood.

The pieces of sacks continue to be removed, the branches of the willow trees continue to be folded, and the earthworms no longer need to be dug, there are many.

Next, a group of children were fishing by the river. They are not afraid of their hands and can gradually become more proficient. Sometimes luck is more important.

The grasshoppers they caught were also used as bait by Zhu Wentian, and they followed suit.

Twenty-two friends and their silly brother made a nest in this area, and the fish were thrown up one after another.

At noon, it was their family members who called and they realized that they were addicted to fishing, especially when they were catching fish like crazy.

Behind them were a bunch of fish, just catching fish without anyone thinking about the quantity.

"You, you..." The father of the girl who cooked eggs for Zhu Wentian came over and looked at Xiaoyushan blankly.

"Dad, let's make fish for lunch!" The little girl turned around and also found that there were too many fish, she shouted excitedly.

"Eat fish, eat fish."

"We caught it."

"Brother Hanhan teaches us."

"The village guards are really amazing."

Other friends followed suit and shouted that they had received this kind of education since they were young.

The village guard's brother Hanhan is very powerful. He was invited by the village. He must be kind to the village guard. He must not laugh at or bully the village guard. He must help the village guard when he is in trouble.

Village guards are given by God to bless the whole village. Only with the village guards around can the village be stable.

In fact, Zhu Wentian's body, even though he is only fifteen years old and more than 1.6 meters tall, is full of strength.

He can easily pick up a stone roller weighing more than 200 kilograms, and he can catch up to half an ox when pulling a plow.

"Hanhan, did you teach them? Ah! Ah! The fortune teller is right. If you give less, you will give less money.

At that time, the fortune teller said that the villagers were extraordinary and if they were treated well, they would be blessed.

Oops! I have to tell others, great, our Hanhan has brought blessings to the village.

The village chief did nothing wrong at the beginning, but he should have found a fool somewhere else to be the village guard, right."

The little girl's father yelled and ran away, feeling that he was more like a village guard.

Zhu Wentian: "..."

What he actually wanted to tell the other party was that fortune tellers were just making up their minds and were deceitful, so don't take them seriously.

If I were a fortune teller, I would say the same thing when I look at the treatment the village guards receive.

Huh? Village guard? You are a village guard?

Amazing, this village actually knows how to raise fools.

Zhu Wentian suddenly understood his status. In ordinary villages, there must be a fool for various reasons.

He was actually brought back to the village from somewhere else and used himself to educate the villagers.

What is a village guard? Guard the goodness of a village, regulate the virtues of hundreds of households, and protect the bottom line of human nature.

If a village, from adults to children, knows how to treat a fool well, then there will be no village bullies.

If the whole village raises a fool well and tells the children to be kind to the fool, what they actually cultivate is virtue.

In a village like this, who dares to idle around and become the village tyrant? I can’t beat you to death!

He has become a benchmark, so the people in the village have taken care of themselves in a feudal and superstitious way.

"Then I will be a guardian of this village!"

Zhu Wentian murmured to himself and flicked the fishing rod, and another big fish that seemed to weigh more than four kilograms flew up. The fish was sprinkled with water droplets in the air, as dazzling as pearls.

***

"This is it, this is it. Look, our village guard is enlightened. Our Hanhan is taking the children fishing!"

Not long after, the little girl's father ran back again, followed by a group of people.

The children were trying hard to throw the fish to the road, but there was no room for them in the small area on the shore, and if they were thrown again, they would fall back into the water.

The villagers came over to help catch the fish and stared at Zhu Wentian, becoming more and more delighted as they watched.

Zhu Wentian was at a loss. Shouldn’t you feel scared and confused? Why do you accept the fact that I can fish without a hook so naturally?

Then how should I perform in the future? Continue to be naive? Suddenly become smarter? Little by little with a naive look, and slowly become smarter?

I have a personality! Can you tell me your positioning in mind? I can cooperate.

"You don't need a hook? Why do the fish just bite?"

"Is it so easy to fish? Look, is it a fake fish?"

"Oh my god! It's enough for the whole village to have a good meal of meat."
