Oh no! Seven kids at the start, all yellow and skinny.

Chapter 380 Fishing

Silent all night.

The next morning, after having breakfast, Yunyi bought some food at the inn before returning to the ship.

Fang Zhong also brought breakfast for those who stayed on the ship.

The rest of the passengers who disembarked returned one after another, but the pregnant women did not.

The boatman asked about the number of people and, finding that everyone had returned, gave a shout and continued sailing.

Yunyi stroked the little fox's head, wondering where those people would make their move, when Fang Zhong came knocking on the door: "Miss, would you like to go fishing?"

"Fishing?" Yun Yi was surprised for a moment, but still got up and went outside. "Why did you suddenly think of fishing?"

"The boatman said there are a lot of fish in the Grand Canal, especially in this section, where there are many silver carp. The boatman's wife is a master at cooking fish. If we can catch some, we can eat fish again today." Fang Zhong was clearly still thinking about the braised grass carp from before.

"Okay," Yunyi nodded. "Let's go fishing then."

Fang Zhong hurriedly handed the fishhook in his hand to Yun Yi: "I'll go ask the boatman for it again."

Yunyi, holding a fishing hook, and Yunlu, carrying the bait and a small stool provided by the boatman, went together to the deck at the stern of the boat.

"Young Miss, do you know how to fish? I don't." Yunlu looked at the fishhook with some difficulty.

"This isn't difficult at all." Yunyi put the little fox down, then took the fishhook and a piece of dough soaked in sesame oil from the small bucket and hung it on the hook. "Just throw it in like this, watch the float, and when the float moves, a fish has taken the bait." With that, she flicked the hook, and it flew out and landed in the water.

Of course, fishing is not that simple, but that's all she can say for now, since it sometimes relies on experience.

Yunlu followed suit and learned as well.

Fishing on a moving boat is actually very difficult; it often requires luck.

Yunyi didn't have high hopes either; since she was bored on the ship anyway, she figured she might as well use it to pass the time.

"Why don't you go first?" A familiar voice came from mid-air.

Yunyi looked up: "Why did you come out?"

"I am the Day Wanderer, of course I have to come out." The Day Wanderer shrank his body to the height of a normal person, and then sat down next to Yunyi.

"Miss, why do I suddenly feel a little cold?" Yunlu couldn't help but raise her hand to rub her arm.

"It might be windy here." Yunyi glanced at her calmly. "Then you should go over there."

Yunlu glanced to the side, which was only a few steps away, and then dragged the fishing hook over there.

"Tell me, how did you find me here?"

“Boss Ghost, it really is a coincidence.” Day Wanderer leaned against the railing. “You know, I just wander around during the day.”

"Is everything alright inside?"

"It's all quite normal."

Yunyi glanced at the Day Wanderer with disdain: "You're not as cute as the Night Wanderer. If he were here, at least he could chat with me about gossip, but you just sit here with your head down?"

What kind of gossip do you want to hear?

What gossip do you have?

"No, I never listen to gossip."

“You…” Yunyi sighed, “Then why don’t we go and take a look around Jiazi Mountain ahead, and see what the bandits in the mountains and rivers are like? I reckon they’ve got their eyes on my little fox, and they’ll probably make their move soon.”

"Really?" The Sun God said, standing up abruptly. His body rapidly swelled before quickly returning to its original form. "Then I'll go take a look."

"Take a thorough inspection of their warehouse."

The corner of the sun god's mouth twitched: "You've been loving money the same way for tens of thousands of years."

"Money can make a fool of himself."

The wandering god had nothing to say and simply drifted away silently.

Although Yunlu was standing nearby, for some reason, she felt like there was something around the young lady, but there was clearly nothing there. It was so strange.

Just then, Yunyi suddenly pulled the fishing rod, and a large grass carp flew out of the water and landed on the deck.

"My God, Miss, this grass carp is even bigger than yesterday's!" Yunlu exclaimed excitedly.

"Really? It must weigh thirty pounds!" Fang Xiao exclaimed in surprise.

Fang Zhong hurriedly ran over, picked up the big fish and put it in the basin, not forgetting to flatter Yun Yi: "Miss is really amazing."

Yunyi smiled and continued casting her line, soon pulling up another large silver carp.

The crowd gasped again, but before they could finish their gasps, another crucian carp was brought up.

Yunyi glanced at the three big fish and handed the hook to Fang Zhong: "Alright, these are enough for today's meal. If you want more tomorrow, we can fish again tomorrow."

The rest:…

They hadn't caught a single fish all day, while the young lady had caught every kind of fish in the canal.

These three types of fish are the most common in this canal. There are other species as well, but they are all small fish.

"Miss, why did my float move? It pulled me up and the fish food was gone, and the fish were gone too!" Yunlu asked, her eyes filled with envy.

"You haven't fished enough." Yunyi picked up the little fox. "You'll be fine after fishing a few more times." In the mission world, she had been a professional fisherman for a hundred years and had been to all kinds of waters. Fishing in such a calm canal was very easy. What's more, with the little fish secretly helping her, she could catch whichever fish she wanted.

"Young lady, may I sell myself to you?" A man from the same boat stepped forward and bowed. "My name is Li Qi."

"Let's find Uncle Zhong." Yunyi gestured to Fang Zhong, then got up and returned to the cabin.

“Young Miss, I don’t remember this person staying in that cabin before.” Yunlu followed in, looking puzzled. “Could it be that I’m remembering wrong?”

"If you remember correctly, they have indeed changed people." Yun Yi frowned, wondering if the original two people had been murdered.

Yunlu's face immediately darkened: "Then this person..."

"Just wait and see what happens."

Yunlu stopped talking.

At noon, the boatman's wife stewed crucian carp for him. The soup was white and looked very appetizing.

Li Qi bought the silver carp and had the boatwoman braise it.

It has to be said that the cook's cooking skills are really good; she can make any kind of fish look, smell, and taste delicious.

"Haha." The boatman laughed happily. "My wife may not be pretty, but she's very skillful, especially in cooking. She's really amazing. She can figure out how to cook fish after she's tried it. But she always figures out how to cook fish herself. After all, we make our living on the water all year round, and we never lack fish."

Yunyi nodded, "This person is talented."

"Boatman, I'll pay for it. Let everyone come and have some fun. It's fate that we're all on the same boat." Li Qi stepped forward, took out a silver ingot, and handed it over. "Tell your wife to prepare a few more dishes." He then looked at Yun Yi, "Miss, how about you do me the honor?"
