Chapter 353 Fishing 2
……
……
Time soon came to the next day. Today is Lin Tianlang's third day in Crescent City, and it is also the day he takes the princess to go fishing outside the city.
After three days of adapting, Lin Tianlang has become somewhat accustomed to life in Crescent City. At least Lin Tianlang in the city no longer has a black eye. After getting up in the morning, according to the time agreed yesterday, after Lin Sirius prepared the things he wanted to bring, he came to the front of the Crescent Temple to wait for Alana and Sherry.
After telling the princess yesterday about today's activities, Sherry also told her about her plans to have a picnic outside the city at noon. The princess was very excited after hearing this, and shouted "Yes! Let's go on a picnic!" while hugging Sherry tightly, making the latter feel embarrassed again.
"If you have a picnic at noon... you must have fish, right? Grilled fish, smoked fish, fish soup..." In front of the stairs of the temple, Sirius Lin touched his chin while thinking about what he should eat for the noon picnic. Then at this moment, a light and pleasant voice sounded behind him.
"Good morning, classmate Lin Tianlang." The owner of the voice came from a beautiful blond girl. Lin Tianlang turned around and found Shiris standing behind him in a pretty way.
"Ha, good morning, Sherry." Lin Tianlang smiled and then said.
"Has classmate Lin Tianlang been here for a long time?" Shiris asked.
"That's not true. I only waited for about five minutes... Where is the princess? Isn't she with you?" Lin Tianlang said.
"Her Royal Highness Princess...should be here soon, right?" Sheris pursed her lips and whispered.
"It doesn't matter, just wait. But I thought you two would come over at the same time." Lin Tianlang smiled and said.
"Well..." Sherry lowered her head slightly, and there was a ripple in her heart.
Yes, I should have come with Her Highness the Princess. Although I am no longer Her Highness's first bodyguard, I should have come with Her Highness. Why did I come here early by myself?
The two fell into a brief silence, but soon the silence was broken because the princess came over.
"Morning, Xuexue!" A crisp voice came over. Then, a blond girl with twin ponytails wearing a crown ran towards the two of them happily, and then hugged Sherry. This was not the first time Lin Sirius had seen this scene. The princess always seemed to be so enthusiastic about Sherry.
"Good morning, Your Highness." Sherry seemed to have long been accustomed to the princess's way of greeting her. She did not resist or struggle, but allowed Alana to hold her, and then said calmly.
"Hehe." Alana smiled and looked very happy. Behind the princess, there are two guards with solemn expressions. Both of them are women, and neither of them is wearing a helmet. One of them has short hair, and the other has a ponytail, which makes him look somewhat heroic.
At first glance, the strength of these two guards is not ordinary. At least the aura exuding from them is obviously much stronger than those ordinary guards.
"Well, what about me?" Seeing that Alana seemed to be completely ignoring him, Lin Sirius couldn't help but said.
"What about you?" Alana turned back to look at Lin Sirius and said doubtfully.
"Don't you say hello to me? I'm the organizer of today's event." Lin Tianlang said.
"I greeted you with my eyes. And you're not Xuexue, so it doesn't matter whether you say hello or not, right?" Alana rolled her eyes and said.
"..."
Lin Tianlang was speechless and didn't know what to say. Sherry watched the interaction between the two and smiled lightly.
"However, Xuexue, you came here early without coming to me. This makes me feel so lonely." Alana suddenly put her chin on Sherry's shoulder, then pouted, and said a little aggrievedly : "Could it be that... is it because you want to come over to your lover in advance before I come over, so that we can spend two minutes together?"
Alana's words almost shocked Lin Sirius. The princess is really capable of bursting out some explosive words at any time.
Sheris also blushed instantly. Just now she let Alana hold her, but now she began to struggle.
"Your Highness Princess... please don't always say such words that can easily be misunderstood... you will make classmate Lin Tianlang very troubled." Sherry bit her lip gently and said, but did not dare to look at Lin Tianlang next to her. Sirius.
"..." Lin Tianlang scratched his face and said nothing. Mainly because he didn't know what to say. It would be bad if he said the wrong thing and made the situation more embarrassing. So in order to avoid making mistakes, Lin Tianlang chose to keep his mouth shut.
"Okay, okay, Xue Xue is so shy..." Alana made a face, and then let Sherry go: "Then let's go! Let me say yes first, if it's not fun, I So you’re asking, did you hear it?”
Alana turned her nose up and looked at Sirius and said in a threatening tone. She probably wanted to grab Lin Sirius by the collar, but she couldn't do it because of the height difference.
"Yes, yes, I heard it." Lin Tianlang said with a wry smile and nodded.
"Okay, then let's set off! Well, you don't have to follow me. Xuexue will protect me. It'll be fine." Alana looked at the two female elf guards behind her and said.
"Yes, Your Highness Princess." The two guards nodded together and then retreated.
The three set off. They first came to the gate of Crescent City, and then walked outside the city under the respectful escort of a group of guards.
Because they had visited the spot in advance yesterday, Lin Tianlang and Sherry quickly took the princess to the water area suitable for fishing that they had chosen yesterday. After checking, the water flow in the small river was still very stable, and some small fish were swimming freely in the water, but they would soon become prey.
"The environment here is really good, I like it very much..." Looking at the beautiful environment around her, Alana rubbed her hands and said happily: "Then let's start fishing? What needs to be done as the first step?"
"Don't worry, I'll just teach you slowly." Lin Tianlang said as he slowly took out the fishing rod he made yesterday and a pack of bait from his backpack. These baits are tree worms caught yesterday, and they are still alive and kicking at this time.
Lin Tianlang handed the fishing rods to Sherry and Alana respectively, and then started fishing instruction.
"How does this thing work? Throw the thread out and tie up the fish? But I don't feel much magic power fluctuation in this thread?"
"Don't worry, Alana, that's not how the fishing rod is used. Let me show you first... Shiris, do you still remember the steps of fishing?" Lin Sirius looked at the blond girl next to him.
"Remember." Sheris nodded: "The first step...is to put on the bait first, right?"
"Well, that's right." Lin Tianlang nodded, and then handed the small bag containing the tree worms to Sherry. Sherry neatly took out a worm from the bag. The worm twisted left and right between the girl's jade fingers, and then the girl pierced it onto the fishhook.
"Wow...what are you doing?" Alana's eyes widened, and then she looked at the bugs, feeling very surprised.
"This step is called bait threading. These tree worms are the bait. Thread it on the fishhook, and then throw the fishhook into the water... Sherry, you can demonstrate."
Sherry followed Lin Sirius's words and threw out the baited fishhook.
"After the hook enters the water, you can leave it alone. The next thing to do is to wait patiently and wait for the fish to come and bite the hook. When they bite the hook, you will find obvious signs of sinking of the fishing rod. .At this time, you only need to pull back hard to catch the fish." Lin Tianlang explained.
"Huh? Will those fish come to bite this hook on their own?" Alana said with some doubts.
"It's not the hook, but the bait." Lin Sirius said: "The bait needs to fill the hook and hide the hook. In this way, the fish cannot see the hook, and they will only think it is a fish that fell into the water. bugs... but when they go up to eat the bugs, they will inevitably bite the hook."
"Really? Let me try!" Alana said anxiously, and then took out a worm from Sirius's bag. Lin Tianlang originally thought that the princess would hesitate. After all, girls always have some inexplicable fear of bugs. But he was wrong. The princess was also an elf. Just like Sheris, the elf didn't seem to be afraid of bugs or anything else.
Alana followed suit, clumsily threading the worm on the fishhook, and then imitating Shirley's example and throwing out the fishing line.
"Okay, the preparations have been completed. The next thing to do is to wait patiently." Lin Tianlang said with a smile.
"Ha, how long will it take to wait?"
"It's hard to say, it depends on when the fish takes the bait..."
Before Lin Tianlang finished speaking, Shiris next to her suddenly pulled back, and then she caught a lively fish.
"Oh, so that's it?" The princess followed suit and pulled back hard, only to find that the fishhook was still empty.
"Why is there nothing?"
"Don't be anxious, wait until the fish bites the hook, and then pull back when you feel something pulling down..."
"Like this?" The princess yanked the fishing rod again, and this time there was a small fish on the hook, which was struggling fiercely.
This time it was Lin Tianlang's turn to be surprised. Are the fish in this area all fools? Are they so easy to take the bait?
But after seeing the smile on the princess's face, Lin Tianlang felt that all this seemed to be insignificant.
"Hahaha, it's quite interesting! These fish are so stupid, they actually bite the hook by themselves! Keep going!"
Alana shouted excitedly, while taking off the fish from the hook, she took out a worm from the small bag of bait and put it on, and then threw the hook into the water. But just as she threw the hook out, Sherry caught a second fish.
"Your Highness, let's compete to see who can catch more fish." Sheris glanced at Alana, and then said quietly.
"Huh? Xuexue actually challenged me?! Humph, then go ahead, I won't lose!"
