My barrage in the wild can be withdrawn

Chapter 307 Fishing
With the fence wall built, the security of the camp has also been upgraded to a higher level.

The fence wall is slender, it is difficult to block the attack of wild animals, but it can effectively reduce the probability of wild animals breaking into the camp.

Pure wild animals are very alert.

Generally, they will not break into unfamiliar territory unless they have to.

This circle of paper-like fences can serve as a territorial division.

After finishing the fence, Zhou Chen slumped on the ground to drink water.

After working for a long time, he finally finished it.

But Zhou Chen felt that it was worth it.

In the wilderness, safety is of the utmost importance, and it is not a loss to spend a little effort to improve the safety of the camp.

Armed with a longbow and axe, Zhou Chen decided to go to the lake to fetch water.

After finishing the fence, Zhou Chen really felt like "home".

At least he still tied the door with a rope when he went out.

The challenge time is too short, if it was longer, Zhou Chen might really consider building a decent house, at least he wouldn't use a shelter to deal with it.

The camp was not far from the lake, and within a few minutes, he arrived at the lake.

puff~
As soon as Zhou Chen got the water, he saw a fish jumping out of the water.

"There are quite a lot of fish in this lake. If there are no these annoying guys, I can get a fishing rod and fish here."

Looking at the crocodile on the water like driftwood, Zhou Chen felt slightly dissatisfied.

This lake is the territory of crocodiles, so it is not easy for Zhou Chen to get some water here.

fishing?It was a dream.

Zhou Chen understands the truth, but he is indeed a bit greedy.

"Brother Chen is poisoned by mushrooms, or is he delusional due to hunger? Why are you talking nonsense in broad daylight?"

"Hahaha, do you still want to fish and use yourself as bait?"

"How about getting a crocodile to eat, boss?"

"Agreed, braised crocodile sounds satisfying."

"And braised the crocodile in soy sauce, maybe it will turn into a human sashimi."

The fans in the live broadcast room didn't care about Zhou Chen's words.

Obviously.

They feel that the probability of success in this matter is almost zero.

But Zhou Chen didn't just talk about it casually, he really wanted to get some fish to eat in the lake.

Zhou Chen is serious about eating.

After observing the terrain, he found an acacia tree in the northwest of here.

The tree has deep roots and luxuriant leaves, thick branches, and there is a thick branch near the lake.

As long as Zhou Chen can climb up, he can not only sit on the branch to fetch water, but also fish there, and even set up a fishing trap.

After looking at it carefully, Zhou Chen was really moved.

Tightening the longbow on his back, he walked towards the big tree.

"That branch looks thick enough to hold me up."

Zhou Chen pointed to the branches lying across the water and said slowly.

The fans in the live broadcast room were a little dumbfounded when they heard Zhou Chen's words.

Everyone was silent for a few seconds, and then the pot exploded, and they tried to dissuade them.

"Boss, are you crazy? There is a lake under the branch, and if you fall, you will die!"

"No, no, absolutely not. It's too dangerous there. Let alone an adult, even a child may break the branch."

"Brother Chen is starting to act dead again."

"That's right, boss, don't go there, it's really dangerous, the crocodiles below are not vegetarian."

Before Zhou Chen could express his thoughts, everyone guessed what he was thinking.

He understands why everyone opposes it, because this matter is indeed dangerous.

However, Zhou Chen still had confidence in his own judgment.

Putting the kettle and other sundries under the tree, he looked again.

This acacia tree is not tall, but it is very strong, but whether it can hold itself can only be known by trying.

After scraping off the hard thorns on the tree with a dagger, Zhou Chen slowly climbed up the tree.

The roots where the branches connect to the trunk are fine, it's thicker here.

But the further you go, the thinner the branches.

If he wanted to fetch water or fish from a tree, Zhou Chen had to climb at least to the middle of the branch.

Taking out an umbrella cord, Zhou Chen squeezed one end around his waist and tied the other end to the acacia tree.

This rope is very strong, and if there is an accident, it can help Zhou Chen return to the ground as soon as possible.

But Zhou Chen also understood that if the branch really broke, he would not escape the fate of falling into the water.

Even so, Zhou Chen still wanted to try.

In fact, Zhou Chen had long wanted to change the method of fetching water.

It seems safe to fetch water by the lake, but it is actually dangerous due to the limited vision.

After all, 80% of the crocodile's diet is animals that go to the lake to drink water.

Although it is on a tree, it has a wide view.

Zhou Chen can clearly see the underwater situation, once a crocodile swims, Zhou Chen can detect it in advance.

The only worry now is the firmness of the branches.

After standing on the tree and observing the lake, Zhou Chen decided to take a few steps forward.

Zhou Chen was wearing a portable camera, and everyone seemed to be there.

"Damn it, I'm so hairy."

"It's too scary."

"I was so scared that I held the mouse tightly."

"Fuck, I'm dizzy looking at it, it's too scary."

"Death, Brother Chen is serious."

Every time Zhou Chen took a step forward, everyone's hearts seemed to be pinched by someone, for fear that he would fall if he heard a "click".

Fortunately, this branch was far stronger than imagined.

Zhou Chen stood in the middle and shook several times, but the branches were all fine.

Even when he jumped on the tree a few times desperately, the whole acacia tree shook, and the branch under his feet still showed no signs of breaking.

"Haha, it's okay, this branch is very strong."

Zhou Chen said with a smile while jumping.

Seeing this scene, the fans in the live broadcast room were almost scared to death.

"Fuck, Brother Chen, stop jumping, my heart is about to jump out."

"Oh my god, my blood pressure is going up."

"I was so scared that I quickly took two quick-acting pills!"

"Boss, hurry up and accept the supernatural powers, take it, it's not good if you take it!"

Zhou Chen's performance was like stepping on a tightrope, which immediately frightened everyone.

After testing the branches, Zhou Chen also ended his act of dying.

Although Zhou Chen's performance was a bit exaggerated, he was really not trying to die, nor was he deliberately attracting attention for popularity.

There is no danger in the water at this moment.

Zhou Chen can naturally be a little more presumptuous.

And if you don't test it well now, the consequences will be unimaginable if something happens when it is actually used.

It's okay to go through all this tossing, and Zhou Chen is completely relieved.

After pouring the water from the military kettle back into the lake, Zhou Chen tied a rope to the mouth of the bottle and sat on a branch to practice fetching water.

The kettle is made of steel and has a certain weight. It is not difficult to get water, and the water here is clearer than the water by the lake.

After practicing a few times, Zhou Chen mastered the essentials of the movement.

After fetching water, he returned to the camp.

The location of the acacia tree by the lake is an excellent fishing place, but if he wants to fish, Zhou Chen still needs to make a set of fishing lines.

"There are a lot of fish in the lake, and the individuals seem to be quite large. Now I need to make a set of fishing equipment."

Sitting by the campfire, Zhou Chen calculated carefully.

Fishing is a very popular leisure sport in recent years.

Zhou Chen was born in Zhonghai. He liked to play on the beach since he was a child. Crab fishing is also a skill he has mastered by peeing.

"The resources here are good, fishing should not be too difficult."

There are not many freshwater fishing resources in China, and with environmental pollution and illegal fishing and other illegal activities, the fishing environment has become worse and worse in recent years.

Although the lake here is not big, the pure natural environment without interference will make fishing a lot easier.

If he wanted to catch fish, Zhou Chen had to analyze the current situation to choose the appropriate tool.

After Zhou Chen's deduction, he felt that the fish situation here should be good, so there is no need to prepare the equipment too carefully.

After thinking for a while, Zhou Chen started to make fishing equipment.

"I'm going to make a set of fishing equipment now, but it's not the fishing rod set that you often see in daily life, but a very simple set of fishing equipment."

While Zhou Chen was talking, he took out the paracord from his backpack.

He first dismantled the paracord into several thin ropes and tied them together again to form a five or six meter long line, which was used as a fishing line, and then brought a short stick as thick as a forearm.

Seeing that everyone didn't understand, Zhou Chen explained: "This is not a fishing rod. The purpose of this short stick is to hold the fishing line."

"That's right, I'm going to fish by freehand fishing."

As soon as Zhou Chen's voice fell, everyone in the live broadcast room began to discuss.

"Bare-hand fishing?"

"How to fish with bare hands, don't make fun of the live broadcast."

"Even if you can fish here, Boss doesn't have a hook."

"Is the anchor joking? Don't you want to catch a hammer with a fishing rod?"

"Foreign bosses have videos of bare-handed fishing. If you don't understand, you can watch it."

"It's not your fault for not knowing, but it's your fault for pretending to understand."

Unknowingly, the live broadcast room started fighting again.

Zhou Chen chuckled and didn't care about everyone's discussions.

"The friend who asked about the fishhook should be a new fan who has paid attention to it recently. In fact, I have made fishhooks when I was in the Nansha Islands."

After winding the fishing line, Zhou Chen broke off a few thin sticks from the firewood beside him.

"In the wild, it is generally difficult to find fishhooks, but you can make fishhooks by yourself." Picking up a thin wooden stick, Zhou Chen smiled brightly, and then said: "Now I will show you how to make fishhooks." hook."

Pulling out the dagger at his waist, Zhou Chen began to sharpen the stick.

It took about seven or eight minutes.

Zhou Chen picked up a thin wooden stick with two pointed ends and a thicker middle, shaped like a toothpick, but overall shorter and thicker.

Holding the thin wooden stick in front of the camera, Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Look, everyone, this is my homemade fishhook."

Although Zhou Chen personally made fishhooks during the live broadcast in the Nanshan Islands, it is different now.

At that time, the audience in his live broadcast room was only a few thousand, but now the online audience of Zhou Chen's live broadcast room has exceeded 300 million.

In other words, most of the new fans have never seen him make fishhooks with their own eyes.

Seeing the thin wooden stick like a toothpick in front of the screen, everyone was a little dazed.

"Is this a fishhook?"

"Boss, I don't read much, don't lie to me, isn't the fishhook curved? Why are you straight? Will you take the bait?"

"It's strange that this can catch fish."

"Although I have [-]% confidence in Brother Chen's strength, but after all, can this thing really fish?"

"Of course, I have seen Brother Chen catch fish with my own eyes."

"Old fans said that this thing is really useful."

There are new fans in the live broadcast room, as well as old people who have been following Zhou Chen since the broadcast started.

When Zhou Chen was broadcasting live in the Nansha Islands, he used this simple hook to catch fish, and his old fans naturally knew it.

Seeing that everyone was still confused, Zhou Chen briefly introduced the principle of this fishhook.

"This fishhook was not invented by me on a whim, but by the ancients. I don't know exactly when this fishhook appeared, but I learned it from an old fisherman."

Zhou Chen pointed the thin wooden stick at the camera, and then said: "This fishhook looks ordinary, but it is very useful in the wilderness where supplies are scarce."

"The principle of this fishhook is also very simple, it is designed to take advantage of the fish's throughput."

He put the hook between his thumb and forefinger, and continued: "This hook is very short, the purpose is to increase the palatability, so that the fish can easily swallow the hook, but once the fish finds that they have swallowed the foreign object, they will eat it. I want to spit it out, but it's easy to put a thin wooden stick into my mouth, but it's hard to spit it out."

"When the fish spits out the stick, the stick will be stuck in its mouth horizontally, thus hooking the fish and achieving the effect of fishing."

Zhou Chen introduced the principle of the fishhook.

But that's easier said than done.

He also needs to use an actual battle to prove his point of view.

After making seven or eight simple hooks, Zhou Chen began to look for bait in the acacia forest again.

Fishing requires bait, they don't eat wood.

After some searching, Zhou Chen dug some beetle larvae under a dead tree that seemed to have been struck by lightning.

It stands to reason that these white and fat beetle larvae are edible.

However, Zhou Chen had enough food now, and he didn't have the heart to show off the stunt of eating insects and bursting pulp.

With the bait and fishing gear, Zhou Chen came to the lake excitedly.

It is noon now, and the sun is very poisonous.

However, with the shelter of the leaves, Zhou Chen, who was sitting on the branch, didn't feel very sun-drenched.

Stringing a beetle larva on a simple fishhook, Zhou Chen threw the fishing line into the water.

"Fishing doesn't make nests, and you don't catch many. If you want fish to land, you have to trade them for food."

Zhou Chen chanted the catchphrase familiar to fishermen, then took out some crushed baobab fruits from his backpack and threw them into the lake.

His current staple food is not only cassava, but also baobab fruit. There are indeed a lot of dry food.

He didn't feel bad about throwing some dry food to make a nest for fishing.

The baobab fruit made a nest very well, and within a quarter of an hour, a group of small fish swam in the clear lake water below him.

This group of small fish played and scrambled for food, and soon attracted many predatory big fish.

The small fish eat the nest materials, and the big fish chase the small fish. It's really lively.

It was very hot below, but Zhou Chen, who was sitting on the branch, was a little worried.

"Grandma, this fish is too small to swallow the hook."

The small fish in the lake are no more than the size of a finger. Although they are eating beetle larvae, they cannot swallow the hook into their mouths.

Looking at the underwater situation, Zhou Chen was a little depressed.

But when he was considering whether to change the small hook, a huge silver-gray fish slowly swam over.

After this fish arrived, the small fish in the nest immediately started to run around.

bang~
The big fish swallowed a small fish that was about to escape from it in one gulp.

The opponent's attack was swift and ferocious. This blow caused ripples in the calm lake water.

The big fish is not full after eating one fish, and continues to catch fish in the nest.

bang~ bang~
Its attack is swift and violent, staggering.

But just when Zhou Chen thought that the other party had completely mixed up the nest, the fish accidentally bit the hook...
