Chapter 253
The seventh year of the establishment of the Mang tribe, and the fourth month of autumn.
In the past, the weather was just getting colder and it wasn't very cold.
But this fall, Chenbei clearly felt that the weather was much colder than in previous years.
“This year’s winter is really obviously ahead.”
This is not a good phenomenon because it shows that climate change is faster and conflicts between many tribes are likely to be exacerbated.
However, climate change is not something that manpower can control, and worrying is useless.
Chen Bei looked at the sky sadly for a while, and then walked towards the river.
Today is the first time the fishing team drove a big boat to the river to catch fish, so he must go and have a look.
I walked along the gravel road to the river, where many people had gathered here.
Lie and the soldiers of the fishing team had already boarded the two big ships brought by Bibo.
Now these two large ships belong to the Mang Tribe and have become fishing boats of the fishing team.
"The leader is here!"
After Chen Bei walked over, the totem warriors along the way made way for Chen Bei to pass.
Chenbei walked to the river and found that Bibo was not on the boat, so he said to her: "Go up and take a look?"
Bibo turned around, gave Chenbei a blank look, and said, "Can I refuse?"
Chen Bei smiled and said, "No."
If there were no people from the Fish Tribe on the boat, Chenbeizhong would be a little worried after all. If something unexpected happened, no one knew how to solve it.
After taking Bibo up, Chenbei felt much more at ease.
Bibo had no choice but to board the boat with Chen Bei. The two soldiers from the Fish Tribe were also on the way.
When Lie saw Chenbei also got on the boat, he was a little nervous. He was not allowed to mess up in front of the leader when he went out to fish for the first time.
"Set sail and set sail!"
Lie stood at the bow of the boat and shouted, and went up to the helm himself.
Some totem warriors took the anchor up, while others went to pull sails.
The huge sail slowly lifted up, and was blown up by the wind, and the boat gradually moved.
On the shore, many people were jumping and watching, wanting to see if the fishing team could catch some big fish back for the first time on the boat.
Under the influence of wind, the two large ships quickly drove towards the center of the river, which was an area that the fishing team had never been to before.
At the beginning, no one in the fishing team could swim, and they had no boats, so they could only cast nets on the river bank or put cages of rattan woven ground.
Later, Chenbei ordered the fishing team members to learn to swim and teach them how to swim themselves, and asked the carpenters to make canoes and boats.
Even so, the fishing team only dares to fish in shallow waters, and has never been to the deep waters.
Because there are too many terrifying big fish and water beasts in the river, they rely on those canoes and small boats to overturn.
Now, after finally having a big boat and learning how to drive a boat from the fish tribe warriors and the experience of fishing in the river, they can finally go to the deep water to catch fish!
"Play..."
The waves raised by the river kept hitting the ship's side, and the hull kept shaking with the waves.
Fortunately, I had adapted to it when I was studying before, otherwise many people in the fishing team would have to be seasick.
Bibo stood by the boat, feeling no sense of the shaking of the boat. She turned to look at Chenbei and found that Chenbei seemed calm, and Bibo was quite surprised by this.
"Chief Chen, don't you feel dizzy?"
Chenbeidao: "What's the point of shaking? I've been flying around on the red crane before, and I've long been used to bumps."
Bibo thought so, and he flew around in the sky, which was much better than taking a boat.
The boat drove to the middle of the river. Although the waves continued, the water flow below was still calm.
Commander Lie said: "Slow down the sails and start fishing."
The sails landed quickly, the ship lost the wind power and the speed became slower, just drifting with the flow.
An intermediate totem warrior stood by the boat, holding a large net in his hand, feeling quite nervous.
This net is different from the previous net. This net is woven from twine. When it is dry, it is lighter in your hand, but if it is soaked in water, it will become heavier.
Since learning to weave twine with ramie skin, the ropes, fishing nets and other ties of the Mang tribe have been greatly improved, much lighter than before.
There are also light and breathable linen clothes, which are much better than heavy and hard bark clothes in summer.
Chen Bei walked to the warrior and said, "Don't be nervous, just cast the net as usual."
The intermediate warrior nodded, sprinkled some bait first to attract the fish, then took a deep breath, and threw the big net out.
The big net spreads rapidly in the air, blooming like a flower, and then covering the water.
"Crazy..."
The big net enters the water, and the pendant at the edge of the net pulls it to sink quickly to the water surface.
The intermediate soldier held a rope connecting the big net in his hand. When the settlement was almost done, he immediately started to pull the wire and recycle the net.
"Smack it..."
As the big net pulled back, a few big fish soon appeared in the net, struggling wildly, taking pictures of huge splashes.
"If you have gains, hurry up!"
The totem warrior next to him also helped to pull the net, and more and more fish were taken out of the water by the large net.
After the big net was completely pulled up, dozens of big fish were actually netted and the harvest was quite good.
Most of these big fish are over ten kilograms and are jumping wildly on the deck, trying to break free from the big net and return to the water.
The soldiers of the fishing team hurriedly took the big fish out of the fishing net and put them into the cabin where water was stored.
Bibo said enviously: "There are really many fish in the waters on your side. In the middle, it is already very good that big fish like this can catch two or three in one net."
Chenbeidao: "The waters in the central area have been fishing for so many years. In the southern wilderness, except for our Mang tribe, few tribes can catch fish, so there are naturally more big fish."
After scattering a net, the soldiers of the fishing team were obviously more confident. They scattered. Some people fished directly with bamboo poles, while others cast nets and each started to work hard.
"Fish, big fish!"
After a while, one of the soldiers who cast the net suddenly screamed, and the line of the fishing net was tensed, and a big fish pulled the net and ran away.
"let me!"
Lie immediately went over, grabbed the thick rope, and pulled it up vigorously.
The big fish was brought to the water by the net. It was about two meters long. Even if it was entangled by the net, it still swam rapidly, as if it was about to break the rope.
"Come up!"
Lie directly used the power of the totem, covered with totem patterns, increased his strength in his hands, and quickly pulled it up.
No matter how powerful this big fish is, it cannot be able to fight against a high-level totem warrior. It was dragged directly to the deck by the big net.
"What a fierce fish!"
This is a big dark red fish, its body is not very long, there are obvious bone spurs on its fins, and the most conspicuous thing is that its fish has a row of sharp teeth in its mouth.
It kept beating on the deck, and its sharp teeth pounded the net, trying to break free.
"puff!"
Lie Ke didn't go with it, so he swung a big stick and knocked it on the fish's head, knocking it out.
Lie put down his big stick and said, "Put it alone in one place and don't bite other fish to death."
"yes!"
The two totem warriors immediately removed the big fish from the net and threw it into a separate pool in the cabin.
The soldiers of the fishing team on the two ships continued to fish and cast nets. After working for a long time, they finally returned with a full load.
"Today's harvest is good, it's a good start, so keep working hard in the future."
Chen Bei was very satisfied with the performance of the fishing team. The soldiers were recognized by Chen Bei and smiled.
Chapter completed!
