"That's really hard." Xiangbei silently mourned for Ai Ge's teeth for two seconds, but after all, it was a strengthened body, and it could be said to be a set of iron teeth and bronze teeth, so it wouldn't be broken.
The method of making bread in the book that Jiugong Liuli borrowed is the method of making black bread. Although the black bread today is not inedible, the method of making black bread in this book is suspected to be several decades earlier than the modern one, plus the "condiments" she added before.
So much so that even if Ai Ge bites it, the teeth will hurt for a while. Even if it is used as a shield to resist regular barrage, it is easy to use it, and it is not impossible to use it as a real brick.
Bread that cannot be eaten certainly cannot be sold, but it would be a pity to throw it away, so Jiugong Liuli kept it at home as a decoration. However, the shelf life of a loaf of bread is not long, and if it is kept for too long, it will definitely become moldy and smelly.
It just so happened that Xiangbei and Aige needed it, so Jiugong Liuli gave it to them without hesitation... on the condition that if they caught a fish, he would give her one.
In short, the bait was ready. After shaking the bread in his hand, Xiangbei took Aige to find a suitable place next to the Mist Lake. He tore off the bread with some effort, put on the hook, and threw it into the lake.
Ai Ge also followed suit and hung the bread on the fishhook and threw it into the lake. Xiang Bei used the construction technique to create a stool for himself and Ai Ge and sat by the lake.
"This stool looks so weird." Aige looked at the white plastic chair under her butt where Xiangbei was sitting, and touched it curiously. It wasn't that it was very comfortable to sit on, but things made of this material were rarely seen in Gensokyo.
In response, Xiangbei just smiled slightly.
"Hey, Aige, have you heard the story of the Great Sickness Trip?"
"In the second year of the Yuanhe era, a demon hunter named Dante, carrying a box and dragging his shoes, journeyed through the vast valley of Mount Everest, in the depths of winter, amidst a fierce wind..."
Fishing is a bit boring, but it becomes much more interesting if you are with friends.
Listening to Xiangbei's words in her ear and looking at the calm lake, occasionally a few leaves drifted down with the wind and landed on the water, stirring up circles of tiny ripples... Aige just felt that such time was very pleasant.
It would be great if it could continue like this forever, Ai Ge thought as she stared at Xiang Bei's face.
……
……
The reason why Ai Ge brought Xiang Bei to the Mist Lake to fish was, firstly, because the Mist Lake was the only place she knew, and secondly, she heard from others that the fish in the Mist Lake were dull and easy to catch.
wow-
"Yeah, the fifth fish."
Another fat and delicious (? ? ) fish was caught by Xiangbei. This was the fifth fish he had caught in the lake. Although the species of this fish could not be determined, its golden skin made it look very rare.
Ai Ge silently looked at the small wooden barrel at his feet that was empty of fish, then looked at the big wooden barrel next to Xiang Bei that was full of fish, and fell into deep thought.
Why, why is this happening?
It was my first time trying the novelty of fishing, and my first time spending such a pleasant time alone with my favorite friends.
This was clearly a double dose of joy, and this double dose of joy brought me even more joy. I should have been experiencing a dreamlike blissful time, but why did it turn out like this?
Pursing her lips, Ai Ge began to concentrate all her heart and soul on the buoy on the lake, and there was a faint invisible aura emanating from her side.
thump--
"Um, Article 6..."
"..."
Without saying anything more, Ai Ge's aura seemed to become stronger, and a light like lightning burst out of his eyes.
Xiangbei couldn't help but sigh at this.
Hey, I didn’t expect that I actually have a talent for fishing.
No, no, the more important thing now should be the emotional issues of the little princess next to him, right?
The two of them were sitting not far from each other, but the six fish only bit his hook and ignored Ai Ge's feeding.
The bait was all the same breadcrumbs, and the fishing rods were identical except for the color. Xiangbei was also a complete novice angler, with no real skill to speak of...
Could it be that he really has a talent in this area?
"Uuuuuuu..."
Well, let’s comfort her first. Looking at her condition, she’s going to explode soon.
Just when Xiangbei wanted to say something to comfort Aige, she suddenly stood up and slapped her thigh.
"I know, I understand why I can't catch any fish!"
Volume Three: Return to Fantasy: Chapter 188: ——Never Empty Hands!
"I understand why I can't catch any fish!"
"Shanghai!"
"why?"
It looked like Aige understood something, but with her small brain, she probably couldn't understand any serious principles.
And because they are children, the results of their thinking will most likely be very unique... or rather wild and imaginative?
As expected, Ai Ge pointed to the large loaf of bread placed between her and Xiang Bei, and said in a confirming tone, "It must be that the bait I used was too small, so the fish didn't bite my hook, and instead went to bite yours!"
Ah, that’s the reason.
He looked at the bait on his hook and Ai Ge's hook. There was indeed a difference in size. The bait on his hook did look a lot bigger than the one on Ai Ge's hook.
Although both of them used the same bait, which was to tear off a small piece of bread from the middle of the large loaf and hang it on the fishhook, there was indeed a difference in body size between them. Xiangbei would choose to break off a larger piece of bread, while Aige would choose to break off a smaller piece of bread than Xiangbei due to her own body size.
"Hehe, if I use a bigger bait, I will definitely be able to catch more fish than Xiangbei!" Ai Ge's eyes lit up, and she put her hand on the black bread, pulled off a piece of bread about half the size of a fist, and hung it on the fishhook.
“I’m sure I’ll catch some fish this time!”
He threw the fishing hook hard into the center of the lake, looked at the cast fishing rod, and muttered to himself as he watched the shadows of fish that appeared and disappeared under the lake surface.
"Bite, bite the hook, bite quickly..."
"Shanghai……"
Seeing Ai Ge's eager look, Xiang Bei couldn't help but reach out and touch her head.
In order to prevent the fish from running away due to big movements, Ai Ge had to protest by shaking her head. However, because she couldn't move her body, Xiang Bei still touched her head for a long time.
Damn it, why do everyone like to touch my head? When I grow taller, I will touch my head back when someone touched it!
Aige glared at Xiangbei angrily, then turned her head and continued to look at the lake.
By the way, when touching Ai Ge's head, Xiang Bei also touched Shanghai's head, and as a result, he was hit by Shanghai's flying kick which had no lethal power.
He teased Aige a little more, and before she could resist biting him, Xiangbei finally gave up.
Looking at Ai Ge who was looking forward to catching a fish, and looking at the black bread with a corner missing, Xiangbei couldn't help but fall into memories.
Speaking of which, he had gone fishing with his roommates when he was in college.
It seems that we are still arguing about which kind of bait is easier to catch fish. The bait is... ordinary insects and earthworms, and the bread crumbs that are so hard that no one eats are used as bait. The discussion was based on these two kinds of bait.
At that time, Xiangbei used a package of bread as bait, which had been in a drawer for an unknown period of time and had long exceeded its shelf life. In the end, he was the winner of the argument because he caught three fish.
Now that I think about it, it wasn’t actually a novice protection period for a novice angler, but rather that I did have some talent?
Just as Xiangbei was lost in thought, he suddenly heard Ai Ge's cheers.
"Yay! I caught it!"
Following the sound, I saw Ai Ge holding a fish in her arms that was half the size of her body.
Oh, did you really catch it?
Xiangbei didn't hold out hope for Aige to catch any fish. After all, Aige hadn't managed to catch any fish before, and now he had this huge bait that was making the fish grow less...
Unexpectedly, she actually caught it.
"Isn't that great?" Ai Ge raised her head proudly, waiting for Xiangbei's praise.
"Wow, this fish is bigger than the ones I caught." Xiangbei made a bigger wooden barrel for Aige to hold the fish, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
"Hehehe, now you know how powerful I am! As expected, the bigger the bait, the bigger the fish I catch!"
"Shanghai!"
Lying beside the wooden barrel, looking at the big fish she put in it, Ai Ge turned and asked Xiang Bei.
"North, north, what kind of fish is this?"
"I don't know much about fish, but it looks like... a catfish?"
"Catfish? I thought it was carp."
Aige reached out and touched the catfish in the bucket, running her fingers across its smooth scales.
"It's decided! I'm going to give you a name... Let's call you Roasted Sweet Potato!"
"Shanghai!"
"What—the name I chose sounds nice, right? It's better than Shanghai, Penglai, Orlando, or anything like that!"
"Shanghai!"
The man and the puppet started fighting again. Xiangbei did not stop them, but just watched the fight from the side like a show.
Ai Ge has the upper hand - the two are in a stalemate - Ai Ge is at a disadvantage - Ai Ge runs away!
Hmm...how did this thing cause the mutation?
After some playing around, Ai Ge returned to her seat, now full of fighting spirit!
Since the bigger the bait, the greater the probability of catching a fish and the larger the fish caught... then if you use a whole piece of bread as bait, wouldn't you be able to catch a bigger fish?
But Xiangbei still had to fish, so Aige didn't take all the bread on the ground. Instead, she tore off most of it. The bread, which was almost the size of a human head, was placed on the hook.
"How can you fish like that? No fish except sharks can eat a bait as big as yours."
"How do you know if you don't try?" Ai Ge swung the fishing rod and threw the hook with a large piece of bread on it into the lake.
Just as the bait sank into the lake, bubbles appeared under the float for no apparent reason.
Immediately afterwards, a brute force directed towards the bottom of the water was transmitted to the fishing rod through the fishing line, and then pulled Ai Ge's arm hard through the fishing rod, almost dragging her into the lake.
But it was just "almost". Although Ai Ge didn't have brains, she had muscles.
"Hi!"
Ai Ge's eyes were filled with excitement. She had been running around all day in every corner of Gensokyo, but now she firmly planted her legs in a horse stance, steadying her body. Then she grabbed the fishing rod and started competing with the big fish in the lake.
The boom is bent like a crescent moon, and the fishing line is stretched like a full string.
After a short stalemate, even the fishing rods began to creak. Both those on the shore and those in the water were trying their best, and for a while it was impossible to tell who was winning.
However, there was more than one person on the shore.
As Xiangbei stood behind Aige and grabbed the fishing rod in Aige's hand with both hands, the battle between man and fish was destined to be a victory for the human side.
Wow————
A large amount of water splashed and a black shadow was pulled into the air.
"so big."
Just as Ai Ge was thinking this, the black shadow fell into Xiang Bei's hand, and the falling fish tail hit her head squarely, knocking her to the ground.
And Xiangbei's eyes also became strange at this moment.
Because what was caught was not a fish at all...or, it was only half a fish.
The thing that was caught by Ai Ge and in Xiang Bei's arms was actually a mermaid!
Volume 3: Return to Fantasy: Chapter 189: On the Hundred Ways of Mermaids
After much difficulty, he finally caught the fish and brought it ashore. However, because he had exhausted all his strength, Ai Ge staggered and almost fell to the ground.
As a result, when Ai Ge was adjusting her body, the fish that was thrown into the air fell down and landed in Xiang Bei's hands. However, the tail of the fish fell from the gap of Xiang Bei's arms and hit Ai Ge's head squarely, knocking her to the ground and rolling twice on the ground.
"Woo..."
Being hit hard on the head by such a big fish tail, an ordinary person would probably be knocked unconscious on the ground. But for Ai Ge, the impact was just a little painful and made her roll twice on the ground.
The pain point doesn't matter, the problem is that the two rolls were on the shore of the Mist Lake. The soil on the shore of the Mist Lake is wet, and this roll directly made Ai Ge's clothes stained with a lot of mud, and even her little face was stained with some mud.
It’s over. Alice will definitely scold me this time.
Aige had already anticipated that she would go back covered in mud, but Alice was furious and pressed her legs, breaking her buttocks. Lilith was also laughing at her hellish scene.
Wow wow wow wow wow…
Feeling a vague phantom pain on her buttocks, Ai Ge climbed up from the ground and patted the dirt off her body, but found that she could not clean it off no matter how hard she tried. The dirt stubbornly stuck to her clothes.
