Chapter 242: Chapter 241, Fishing_1
Ge Xing scratched his head awkwardly and chuckled, "Hehe, as long as we don’t eat those two freaky fish, what else is in that river?"
Ji Nuan sighed helplessly, "The river outside is just a tributary of the Eneru River, it’s uncertain whether there are crocodiles and beast-eating fish."
"Could there be Green Bull Beasts and Yellow Sheep Beasts in the river?"
"Maybe there area even Giggle Beasts and Gagabeasts!"
"Ji Nuan is so awesome, she knows all the prey in the water!"
Facing the glistening, idolizing eyes of the beasts, Ji Nuan was speechless.
She waved her hands amusingly, "Stop guessing everyone, there aren’t any Green Bull Beasts, Giggle Beasts or Gagabeasts in the river. The food we are going to catch later is fish.
But, not crocodiles or beast-eating fish, it’s a type of herbivorous fish. We will catch it for food, I can teach you all how to cook it. When done correctly, it’s even tastier than fried meat slices."
Ji Nuan’s words immediately elicited a chorus of "gulp gulp" swallowing sounds from the beasts.
Seeing their green-eyed looks, Chief Ge Xing gritted his teeth, "Look at you lot, acting so disgracefully!"
Ge Tai glanced at him, "Father, I saw you swallow saliva just now."
Chief Ge Xing instantly shot him a threatening look, thinking to himself ’ungrateful brat, don’t I, your father, have any face left!’
"Pfft~"
"Hehe~"
A chorus of laughter resounded among the beast crowd.
Chief Ge Xing’s face turned red, "What are you laughing at? Now I’m going to assign tasks for everyone. Xiu Yan and a few young Eagle Beasts go outside to dig a trench, just like the one we used to dig outside the tribe. Don’t dig through to the river just yet.
The rest of you Orcs divide into three groups. Take turns digging inside the wall, and the rest continue building houses. We can’t neglect that."
The Orcs nodded.
Ji Nuan pondered and stated, "Chief, although we aren’t sure if there are beast-eating fish or crocodiles in this tributary, we should be careful. Let’s have the Orcs make a fence out of black ironwood to block off the city gates.
Not to mention the beast-eating fish, crocodiles can also crawl ashore."
Ge Xing widened his eyes in surprise, "These...these weird fish have this ability?"
Ji Nuan nodded.
...
The Orcs were busy digging and building houses, while Ji Nuan led the females in weaving the first fishing net of the Beast World Continent using the stockpiled vines.
The fishing net was roughly made, with large holes. They were unsure if it would be able to catch fish.
After thinking about it, Ji Nuan stood by the city wall and shouted, "Brother Xiu Yan, can you come over? I need your help with something."
The moment her voice fell, a large Orc descended from the sky, his gaze on Ji Nuan filled with warmth, "What’s the matter, Nuannuan?"
Ji Nuan handed over the rough fishing net: "Brother Xiu Yan, this is our woven fishing net. Take it and try if you can catch any fish."
Xiu Yan took the net and looked it over, nodding, "Okay, wait for me."
With that, he flapped his wings and flew off again.
Ji Nuan returned to where the females were weaving. They all looked at her in anticipation, "How was it? Did you catch any fish?"
Ji Nuan smiled helplessly, "You’re all too impatient, I just passed it to Brother Xiu Yan moments ago, it can’t be that fast!"
The females scratched their heads and chuckled sheepishly.
The wait felt long. Even though it was just a few tens of minutes, it felt like hours had passed.
"Ji Nuan, look, is that Xiu Yan coming back?"
