Sanborn was also a fisherman before he retired and knew a lot about this, so he opened a fishing tackle store after retirement.

It is not difficult to cast a net and catch fish. It depends on the environment and luck. I am just saying it casually now.

Li Qiuzhi nodded to show that he understood. What the boss said was similar to what he thought.

Before leaving, Li Qiuzhi bought some bait and couldn't wait to go out of the city gate. He looked to the left along the shore of Fruit Wine Lake for a suitable position to cast the net.

Because we didn't have a small boat, we couldn't reach the center of the water. We could only make do with what we had, looking at the depth of the water, casting the fishing net, scattering the bait, and waiting for tomorrow to come.

Chapter 4 Fishing and Selling Fish

In the early morning, the sky was still dim.

There aren't many people in the streets yet, but the shops and workshops operating the morning market are busy preparing to open.

Some well-equipped adventurers got up early and headed towards Catherine, ready to accept commissions and save Mora, so that they could come back in the evening and continue drinking at "Angel's Gift".

Li Qiuzhi was also mixed in, he was there to close the net.

After a whole night, how much you can harvest depends on your luck. Mond is not a country with developed fisheries.

Although there are people who do this job, there are not many of them. The advantage is that it does not cause the problem of overfishing.

So Li Qiuzhi was not worried about not having any fish, especially since there was bait.

Stepping on the grassy ground, he walked along the shore of Fruit Wine Lake again. The grass was wet, perhaps because there was more fog by the lake at night, which caused Li Qiuzhi's shoes to get wet by the water droplets.

A few minutes later, Li Qiuzhi arrived at the place where he cast the fishing net yesterday.

A wooden stick was inserted into the mud, and the fishing net was pulled out along the stick for about fifteen meters. It was not very big, and the shadows of fish could be vaguely seen through the clear water.

Li Qiuzhi was a little excited. All he needed to do now was to pull the fishing net back.

Good weight!

You can feel the weight of the fishing net only when you put your hand on it. It seems that selling and catching fish is really done right, otherwise how could an ordinary person like him gain experience points so easily.

It took some time to collect the fishing net and place it on the grass. There were many big and small fish caught in the net.

Most of them are common fish such as blue-scaled crucian carp, red-winged grass carp, black-backed sea bass, and a few sweet killifish.

[Defeat powerful enemies*13 and gain 65 experience points. 】

At this point they are in a state of having no ability to resist, and can be judged as having been successfully defeated by Li Qiuzhi without being killed. If they could only be defeated once, it would be more perfect to raise them and repeatedly defeat them.

Unfortunately, there is no such loophole.

But there are still advantages, for example, he doesn't have to sell dead fish, so he can sell them more easily.

He took the fish out of the net one by one and put them into the wooden barrel. He counted them carefully. There were thirteen fish in total, 5 experience points each. Adding the 47 points he already had, the total was now 112 points.

Points above 100 can be used to upgrade your level. I’m kind of looking forward to it but I don’t know what will happen.

Huh~ Li Qiuzhi took a deep breath, opened the character panel and invested 100 experience points in the level column. The operation was completed in an instant. The number 1 behind the level flashed twice and slowly turned into the number 2.

Name: Li Qiuzhi

Level: Lv.2 (0/200)

Race: human

Title: None

Inherent talent: Entangled favor

Skills: None

Expertise: [Adventurer]

Experience point: 12

The character panel did not change much, but a cool and comfortable warm current suddenly appeared in his body. This energy slowly covered every cell of Li Qiuzhi like radiation, nourishing and strengthening them. He could feel that he was really getting stronger little by little.

The strengthening process happened very quickly. Li Qiuzhi's body shape and appearance did not change much, and he was still as ordinary as ever, but he could clearly feel that he had become much stronger.

His strength, flexibility, resistance, spirit and even vitality have all become stronger. The scars on his arms left by accidental falls when he was a child have disappeared.

If he faced the water slime again, he believed that he could defeat it head-on with his bare hands without taking advantage of the environment.

This is not only the strengthening of physical functions, but also the evolution of race and the improvement of life level. The most intuitive manifestation is that Li Qiuzhi's life span has also increased accordingly.

Although I don’t know the exact amount of improvement, this is indeed what I felt when my body was strengthened.

In the long run, perhaps his life will never end. Who doesn't want to live forever?

Li Qiuzhi felt very relaxed physically and excited, and was even more motivated to gain experience points!

Becoming an adventurer needs to be put on the agenda sooner. Defeating monsters is the correct way to gain experience points, which requires learning combat skills, and he doesn't know how to start in this regard.

While thinking, he threw the fishing net again, spread the bait, and carried the wooden barrel back to the city. So many fish should be sold.

In the city gate area, because we arrived early, we were able to choose a good location to set up our stall. Fish is food, and there is no shortage of people buying fresh fish. After all, thirteen fish are nothing to Mondstadt's huge population base, and they were sold out in a short while.

On average, each fish was sold for 1,200 Mora, with a total profit of 15,600 Mora, which covered the cost of selling the fishing nets in no time.

When I have more money in a few days, I can return the borrowed Mora to Amber and then rent a house myself.

The relief center is not only remote but also small. It is okay for short-term living but too uncomfortable for a long time.

After selling the fish, I have to come again tomorrow, but I can't stop gaining experience points.

Li Qiuzhi went to ask several restaurants to see if they needed kitchen help. If they could be responsible for handling livestock and fish, it would be another way to earn a stable income and gain experience.

Unfortunately, everyone says there is enough manpower so it is not necessary.

Li Qiuzhi was tired from walking, so he sat down on a bench beside the street to rest. He looked up at the blue sky and let his mind go. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a middle-aged man dressed as a hunter passing by.

The uncle was carrying a hunting bow, had animal ears on his head, and had a beard on his upper lip and chin.

Li Qiuzhi's mind jumped, and some memories came back. He seemed to be the hunter leader of Qingquan Town not far from Mondstadt, Diona's father - Duraf!

Wait, Hunter!

Li Qiuzhi thought that if he wanted to become an adventurer, he still lacked combat skills, but if he wanted to learn the skills he needed someone to teach him.

Although he had lived in China before, he did not know any powerful kung fu.

If I think about it this way, becoming a hunter would be a good transition.

They also need to walk in the wild and have powerful hunting skills, but they are not facing monsters but wild beasts.

If you learn to become a hunter from Duraf and can survive independently in the wild in the future, you will be close to becoming an adventurer.

And even if it is a wild beast, I think it will gain a lot of experience points.

Hunting can also make use of the entire daytime free time after fishing and selling fish. So the question is, can he convince Duraf to teach him hunter experience and skills and follow him to hunt?

Looking at Durave's figure getting farther and farther away, Li Qiuzhi thought for a moment and finally chased after him.

How do you know it won’t work if you don’t try!

"Mr. Hunter, please wait."

Li Qiuzhi called out to Du Lafu but did not show that he knew him in order to avoid being misunderstood.

Duraf, who had animal ears, stopped and unexpectedly turned around to look at the Liyue man who called him and said:

"Just now I noticed that you have been looking at me with a hesitant look. Is there something wrong?"

As an experienced hunter, Duraf had a very subtle sense of the environment. The moment Li Qiuzhi cast his gaze towards him, he spotted the source of the gaze.

But he just thought Li Qiuzhi was curious.

Chapter 5 Hunter Shooting

Li Qiuzhi thought about it for a while, organized his words and said:

".Well, it's like this, Mr. Hunter, are you accepting apprentices?

"I've always wanted to be an adventurer but I'm not confident in my abilities, so I want to become a hunter first and learn the experience and skills of surviving in the wild."

Reality is not a game. At least Li Qiuzhi feels that one should be more respectful in the choice of words.

Duraf was a little surprised that he wanted to be an apprentice. Well, if he had an apprentice, it would be possible for him to help him and reduce his workload.

The Mora he earned from hunting was either used to maintain family expenses or to drink. He couldn't afford to pay the wages for an apprentice.

Duraf touched the back of his head somewhat embarrassedly, smiled and said politely:

"Haha, young man, you don't have to have amazing skills to be an adventurer. You can also be an adventurer if you run errands and do odd jobs in the city!"

What Duraf said is indeed true. It is very easy to become an adventurer, but an adventurer who does not leave the city cannot defeat monsters.

"What kind of adventurer is he who doesn't leave the city? Don't worry, Mr. Hunter. I don't need Mora. I just hope to learn something!"

Li Qiuzhi could see that Duraf was still somewhat tempted, but what could make him refuse? Thinking of his hobby of drinking, perhaps it was Mora's problem.

Looking at the sincere eyes of the young man from Liyue, Duraf couldn't bear to refuse.

Having an apprentice by your side is indeed very helpful. At least when you encounter dangerous monsters, you won't have no one to ask the patrolling Knights of Favonius for help.

And the Mora that is not needed can be saved.

"Ahem." But in order to prevent the young man from being unable to endure the hardship and causing him to be happy for nothing, Duraf coughed lightly and said seriously, "Being a hunter is not easy. There are certain risks and injuries are common. Are you really sure?"

"Of course, Mr. Hunter, I just want to give it a try. If it doesn't work, it will be considered that I have tried my best. This is my ideal."

Li Qiuzhi thought that Du Lav might still decline politely, but she didn't expect it to go so smoothly.

Duraf folded his arms, looked at the street ahead, thought for a while, put his hands down and said:

"Well, although I don't know what your considerations are, and I'm also a stranger to you, this is the first time I've met you, but since you're willing to try, I, Duraf, am not a stingy person, so I'll teach you for a month, and it's up to you what you can learn!"

In fact, he also has the idea of ​​promoting his hunting skills. Now the young people in the town are unwilling to follow the older generation in this business and always want to run away to the city.

Well, now that I meet a young man from Liyue who is willing to learn, it would be okay to teach him.

When he returns to Liyue in the future, he might tell everyone that he met a great hunter teacher in Mondstadt.

Durav's thoughts drifted to who knows where.

"Really? Thank you, Mr. Durafu. I will study hard."

Li Qiuzhi was filled with excitement. He had made progress on his growth path and the day when he could roam Teyvat was not far away!

After calming down, Li Qiuzhi briefly introduced himself and asked Dulav when he would start hunting.

"Li Qiuzhi, the names of Liyue people are really hard to pronounce." Du Lafu was a little emotional after hearing Li Qiuzhi's introduction, and then said seriously, "Let's schedule the hunt in the afternoon. I just came to the city to finish my business and have to go back to Qingquan Town. You can wait for me at the city gate then."

"Okay, Mr. Dourav, thank you."

Li Qiuzhi bowed slightly and expressed his gratitude again.

"Okay, there's no need to use overly distant honorifics. We're not in a teacher-student relationship. Just think of it as an exchange of experience between senior and junior hunters."

Duraf waved his hand and said with a smile. Li Qiuzhi watched him leave on the stone road, looking forward to the afternoon.

Taking advantage of the leisure time, Li Qiuzhi continued to walk on the streets of Mond, getting familiar with everything here.

Time passed like water. In the afternoon, Li Qiuzhi put on the sportswear that Amber bought him for 5,000 Mora and came to the city gate to wait for Duraf.

By the way, the five thousand Mora used to buy clothes should also be returned to Amber. You can't take advantage of a girl.

Li Qiuzhi didn't have to wait long before Duraf, dressed in hunter's clothes, appeared again, carrying a hunting bow on his back and holding another in his hand. He handed the hunting bow in his hand to Li Qiuzhi and said:

"This bow is one I've used before. It's very suitable for beginners of archery. You can use it first."

Li Qiuzhi took it. This was the first time in his life that he had touched a bow and arrow. It looked a bit old on the surface, but there was no damage at all. It was quite good.

Under Duraf's guidance, I put on my hunting bow and quiver and finally looked like a hunter's apprentice.

"Well, very good." Duraf nodded with satisfaction, and then said after a moment's hesitation, "I agreed to take you with me to guide me, but there is actually another reason."

"Another reason?" Li Qiuzhi wondered.

Durafu smiled and explained:

“Recently, there have been more and more wild animals in the Whispering Forest and the Lookout Mountains, which may affect people’s travel.

"So the Knights of Favonius suggest that our hunters in Qingquan Town come here to hunt more often. I think if there are too many prey, I may not be able to catch them all by myself. In order to avoid waste, I'll ask you to work harder."

"Of course, isn't that what an apprentice is supposed to do!"

Li Qiuzhi said happily.
