The sudden bite caught Lu Qing off guard.
Fortunately, with many years of fishing experience, his reaction time has always been quite good.
In a split second, he gripped the fishing rod tightly and steadied himself, thus preventing himself and the rod from being dragged into the water.
This pull was no less powerful than the previous one from the blue turtle!
"Good heavens, you fish from another world all like to ambush people, don't you!"
Feeling the pull from the pole, Lu Qing was both amused and exasperated.
As a seasoned angler, he almost had two mishaps today and had to resort to baiting the area with human bait.
The big fish in this other world are a bit uncivilized; they don't give any warning before biting the hook and always resort to sneak attacks.
If he hadn't been so experienced, they would have succeeded.
However, since the first sneak attack failed, then all of you come up here!
Lu Qing gripped the fishing rod tightly with both hands, constantly sensing the changes in force on the rod and reacting accordingly, beginning a new round of struggle with the fish underwater.
After a brief struggle, Lu Qing realized something was wrong.
He originally thought the newly caught fish would be a big fish like the bluefin bream.
After all, the force of its initial drag was quite considerable.
But now, he sensed something was different.
Unlike the powerful and unstoppable force exerted by the blue carp.
This fish, though it exerts great force now, lacks staying power.
As long as Lu Qing can maintain its initial sprint, its power will soon weaken.
They belong to the type that has plenty of explosive power but can't sustain it.
Based on his experience, Lu Qing guessed that the fish underwater was probably not as big as he thought.
Instead, it refers to fish that swim very fast, have great explosive power, but are not very large.
Knowing this, Lu Qing felt more at ease.
Fish that can dash forward at high speed are much easier to deal with than large fish like the bluefin bream.
The blue-shelled turtle is such a big fish that it is so strong that he has to be extremely careful when it exerts force.
Moreover, they have good endurance; it's a test of patience between the two sides.
For fish that charge and explode, once they can maintain their initial struggle, their strength will gradually diminish, making escape impossible.
Things went exactly as Lu Qing had predicted.
After stabilizing the unknown fish underwater with its several bursts of force, he clearly felt that the force it was unleashing was beginning to decrease.
Then, after a period of pulling, Lu Qing saw the outline of the fish.
"A red fish?"
Lu Qing was stunned when he saw the fish on the hook surface.
Because he saw that the fish was a bright, fiery red color.
This is an amazing fish! It's definitely an amazing fish!
Seeing such a dazzling and vibrant red, Lu Qing's heart immediately filled with excitement.
He also noticed that the red fish was indeed not very big, only about 20 or 30 centimeters long.
With a clearer understanding of the situation, Lu Qing found it much easier to handle the fish.
Before long, he had worn the fish down to almost no strength, and he simply lifted it up.
"Brother, this fish is so beautiful!"
Xiaoyan's eyes lit up as she looked at the fish on the grass.
"It is very beautiful."
After seeing the fish clearly, Lu Qing couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
The fish we just caught is about a foot long, with a slender body, and looks a lot like the carp on Earth in my previous life.
It has two long, flowing whiskers at the corners of its mouth, and its tail is shaped like a flower.
Combined with its fiery red scales, the whole fish looks very beautiful.
After watching for a while, information about the fish began to appear before Lu Qing's eyes.
【Red Moon Carp: A rare fish covered in red scales, it swims at an incredible speed.】
【Because it contains a trace of spiritual energy, its flesh is extremely nourishing and delicious, and its scales can also be used in medicine.】
【Rumor has it that if Red Moon Carp is properly raised, there is a slight chance it will evolve into a Spirit Fish.】
Accompanied by a few notes, and the white light tinged with a hint of red emanating from his body.
"Red light?"
At first, Lu Qing thought he was seeing things.
The red light was reflected from the scales on the Red Moon Carp.
But after careful examination, he confirmed that it was not the refraction of scales, but a radiance that only his special ability could see, representing the quality of the object.
In other words, this Red Moon Carp is not simply a white-light level carp.
It is a rare fish of a quality between white light and red light.
No wonder, he said, why were there three notes?
Generally, items that emit white light should only have a two-word description.
His first focus was on the description of the third note.
“There’s a sliver of a chance to evolve into a spirit fish...” Lu Qing looked at the third note thoughtfully, “Could this spirit fish be a higher level of existence than the strange fish?”
He suddenly remembered the snow silkworm silk that the old doctor had given him.
Snow silkworm silk is already a red-light level treasure, so could the snow silkworm that gave birth to such a treasure be a spirit silkworm?
Unfortunately, this speculation is destined to remain unanswered for the time being.
Even Dr. Chen didn't know the origin of the snow silkworm silk, so even if he wanted to ask, there was nowhere to ask.
Therefore, the description in the second note was more useful to him than the third note.
"The meat is extremely delicious and nutritious..."
Lu Qing looked at the information on the note and couldn't help but smile.
The gift for Dr. Chen that I'm going to give tomorrow has finally arrived.
He had originally planned that if he didn't find anything else, he would take the blue turtle to the old doctor.
But now, it's clear that the Red Moon Carp is more precious.
And it's not too big, making it more suitable as a gift.
Thinking of this, Lu Qing quickly took out the blue turtle and put the red moon carp into the bucket.
Since it's a gift, we can't let it die.
Fortunately, the Red Moon Carp lived up to its reputation as a remarkable fish. Although it had been exhausted from being led around by Lu Qing earlier, it stayed on the grass for quite a °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° while.
But once it got into the bucket and touched the water, it immediately started swimming again.
It has a very strong vitality.
After getting the red moon carp, Lu Qing had no intention of continuing to fish.
After battling wits and courage with two large fish, his physical strength was almost completely exhausted.
Even if he caught more fish if he continued fishing, he wouldn't have the energy to keep playing them.
Therefore, it's best to stop while you're ahead.
"Xiaoyan, let's get ready to go back."
Lu Qing used whatever was available to make a straw rope, tied the blue turtle together, and carried it on his back.
He carried a bucket in one hand and a machete and fishing rod in the other, then said to Xiaoyan.
"Brother, let me help you carry some things."
Xiaoyan felt sorry for her brother as he carried so many things on his back and in his arms.
"Alright."
Lu Qing tried walking around and found that there were too many things there, making it difficult to walk.
After thinking for a moment, he first hung the bamboo tube containing earthworms around Xiaoyan's neck.
Then he put the fishing rod on her shoulder.
"Xiaoyan, carry this fishing rod. Be careful when you walk, don't fall."
"Yes, Xiaoyan understands!" The little one nodded seriously.
And so, the brother and sister, one carrying the fish and the other the fishing rod, walked back with considerable difficulty.
When they passed by the small fishing spot, the villagers were stunned to see two figures, one big and one small.
