261. Fishing on an ironclad ship

Time flies, and the field training ends in the blink of an eye.

Jiang Xiao and the other two were sitting on the beach. In the setting sun, an armored ship slowly sailed towards the uninhabited island.

The ironclad ship did not get too close to the uninhabited island, but instead lowered an inflatable speedboat and drove towards it.

"Five students, congratulations on completing the military training: field training mission!"

The soldiers who came to pick them up saluted.

Jiang Xiao and the others quickly returned the gift, then boarded the inflatable speedboat and embarked on the return journey.

Boarding the ironclad ship, Jiang Xiao found that many students had already boarded the ship.

However, according to what I learned from the soldier who picked them up on the way, only two-thirds of the students have been picked up so far.

Jiang Xiao and the other five boarded the armored ship, and their instructor (Chen Yunting) came over.

"Hello, instructor!" x5

Jiang Xiao and the other five people quickly saluted. The person in front of them was one of the instructors during the military training. He was responsible for 50 people including Jiang Xiao and the others.

"Well, you are all very nice!"

Chen Yunting returned the gift and said: "Here, I would like to congratulate you for passing the field training."

"In the following days, you will have completed the military training in name only, and I am no longer your instructor. You can just call me by my name, or call me Brother Chen."

"Hello, Brother Chen!" x5

Jiang Xiao and the other two looked at each other, and at the same time they breathed a sigh of relief and shouted.

"By the way, are you interested in coming with me to get some ingredients for tonight?"

As he spoke, Chen Yunting pointed to the fishing rods stacked on the bow of the armored ship.

"As you know, our armored ship is not big. Not only are there not enough beds, but people have to sleep in the corridor at night. We don't even have enough food."

Chen Yunting said with a smile.

Jiang Xiao opened his mouth. He remembered that when he sent them over for field training, five armored ships were dispatched, each with 200 people on board.

He was just wondering why there was only one ironclad ship when he picked them up.

I wanted to ask what happened, but I thought it might be a military secret.

Asking about this thing would kill him.

"In this sea area, not only elves can be caught, but also all kinds of sea fish can be caught."

"Whatever you can catch, I will cook for you at night."

“After catching fresh seafood, we cook it immediately. The fresh taste, plus the sense of accomplishment of fishing by ourselves,

But a very pleasant experience! "

Chen Yunting introduced the fun of fishing.

The reasons for the lack of food on the armored ship were briefly explained, and no one would bother about it.

Boys are more or less interested in this kind of activity, and with all the equipment and atmosphere available, there is no reason to refuse.

However, what makes Jiang Xiao a little strange is that not many students of his generation choose to fish. Looking from the deck, there are not many people. Most of them stand by the railing and watch others fishing.

The most important thing is that they have been on board for a while and no one has caught a fish yet.

Jiang Xiao thinks there is a trap here!

When Chen Yunting left, Deng Renfeng stepped forward and picked up a fishing rod.

There was no bench, so Deng Ren sat directly on the deck and started fishing.

"Jiang Xiao, Xu Jinbao, come quickly!"

Deng Ren waved and shouted to Jiang Xiao and the others.

Helpless, Jiang Xiao picked a fishing rod, sat next to Deng Ren and started fishing.

Since Chen Yunting said that their dinner would be whatever they caught. If he didn't catch anything, he would have nothing to eat.

The fishing bait in this world is very special. It is something called a bait ball. It is not a real bait, but it can emit a smell that is a hundred times more fragrant than real bait.

Not to mention common sea fish, even elves can't hold back sometimes.

Jiang Xiao skillfully installed the bait, adjusted the fishing line, and then swung the fishing rod out beautifully.

The float fell into the water steadily, and the movements were done in one go. It looked like an expert at first glance.

"Expert!!"

Ye Yu clapped his hands and cheered beside him.

“Haha, it’s just more fishing!”

Jiang Xiao waved his hand and said that he had contacted her countless times at home just to be loud at this moment.

Ye Yu: "I'll give it a try too."

Zhang Youyou: "And me and me."

Ye Yu and the other two were also holding a fishing rod, imitating what Jiang Xiao had done before, and started flopping around awkwardly.

Because the bait ball was not ready properly, a ball of water splashed out when it fell into the water, and the float was crooked. If Jiang Xiao's swing was like a dragon, Xu Jinbao and others' swings were like a few worms.

Jiang Xiao laughed loudly. If you don't practice fishing hundreds of times, you won't have the feel, so just have fun.

Fishing is a game that requires patience.

Fishing is also a game that requires luck. Sometimes a fish will take the bait quickly, and sometimes there may not be a fish all day long.

Professional fishermen also have their time in the air force, so there are a lot of jokes on the Internet about "if you can't catch a fish, buy a fish".

Jiang Xiao's luck was good. After taking off the pole, the float submerged into the water not long after.

There was a heavy pulling force from the fishing rod, and Jiang Xiao suddenly realized that a fish had taken the bait.

"Give me up!!"

Jiang Xiao worked hard, directly pulled the fishing rod into an arc, and with a sharp pull, he forcibly lifted the thing out of the water as if by divine help.

Die Xiaodie: Hidden merit and fame!

"Crash!!"

Along with the sound of water breaking, an elf with the color of the sea, a body like a lobster, and a circle of black bands appeared, holding huge pliers that did not fit the body.

"Miji!!"

Xu Jinbao exclaimed: "Oh my god, is this an iron-armed spear shrimp?"

Iron-armed Pokémon, the water gun Pokémon, is a water-type Pokémon. Like its classification, this Pokémon is very good at using water guns.

The Iron Arm Gun Shrimp has a strong sense of territory. As long as something comes close, it will attack the target with the water gun compressed in its strong arms!

The powerful water gun can easily shatter rocks and even shoot down prey flying in the air.

Jiang Xiao stared at the Iron Arm Spear Shrimp.

Race: Iron Arm Spear Shrimp

Grade: E (42.7%)

Growth rate: Elite +0.1%

Feature: Super Launcher

Life (E+2), physical attack (E+2)

Physical defense (E+3), special attack (E+2)

Special Defense (E+3), Speed ​​(E+2)

Jiang Xiao was a little surprised. He thought that the elves that could be caught were relatively weak.

Who would have thought that the strength of this iron-armed spear shrimp is unexpectedly good.

The Iron-Armed Spear Shrimp still had the bait ball in its mouth, looking at the people on the boat in confusion.

Isn't it tasting that hard, stone-like deliciousness in the sea?Why did he suddenly end up on a human ship?

But the Iron-Armed Spear Shrimp quickly realized that it had fallen into a human trick.

"Miji!!"

In anger, the Iron Arm Spear Shrimp raised its pliers and launched an attack on everyone, spraying a powerful [water gun] from its arm!

How could Jiang Xiao sit back and watch the iron-armed gun shrimp do evil on the armored ship?

If something was damaged, Jiang Xiao could not afford to pay for it and immediately ordered Die Xiaodie to take action.
