Chapter 418
Zhou Shuwan's space is rich in supplies, including various warm tents and warm supplies.
If a snowstorm really happens, we can only take out the tent immediately, and a few people will have a temporary hiding place.
If you are worried that the tent is unstable, there is also an extra-large water tank in the space that can hold down the four corners of the tent.
After thinking about it, the four of us should be able to survive the blizzard with this preparation.
Otherwise, Zhou Shuwan would not be willing to take his family out on adventures.
Qi Mingyu carefully checked the performance of the bows and crossbows, and also brought a few extra daggers.
Zhou Jiang and Mu Mu also each carried a backpack containing common medicines, tools and weapons.
The night was as dark as ink. The four men, wearing air-conditioned clothes and fully armed, left home quietly and walked towards Jingyun Lake.
Zhong Tiyun and Grandma Pang were waiting anxiously at home.
The street lights had long been turned off, leaving only dim moonlight shining on the ground, illuminating the long shadows of five people.
Qi Mingyu walked in front of the team, vigilantly observing the surrounding environment.
Mu Mu followed closely behind his father and sister, looking at everything around him curiously.
This was his first time going out on such a cold night, and he felt both excited and a little nervous.
He unconsciously tightened his grip on the bow and arrow on his back, feeling the hard texture of the metal, as if this could give him some sense of security.
After walking for about an hour, the five people finally arrived at Jingyun Lake.
There was no one on the lake, only the whistling cold wind and the "cracking" sound of the ice rubbing against each other, which seemed particularly clear in the silent night.
"Brother Xiaoyu, let's start." Zhou Shuwan said.
Qi Mingyu took out the automatic drilling rig, selected several locations that were slightly far apart, and quickly dug several ice holes.
The lake was covered in thick ice, and the sound of the drilling rig echoed across the empty surface. Ice chips flew across the lake, sparkling like diamonds in the moonlight.
After drilling the ice hole, Qi Mingyu carefully placed the fishing net with buoys and sinkers into the water. He used a long pole to carefully adjust the position of the fishing net, controlling its direction, trying to let it float along the water flow to another ice hole.
This requires excellent eyesight and precise judgment of water currents.
Fortunately, they had a strong flashlight with them, and the light beam could penetrate the ice and barely illuminate the underwater situation. The lake water was so clear that you could see the fish swimming under the net.
Qi Mingyu stared intently at the movements underwater and calmly adjusted the position of the fishing net.
"Brother Xiaoyu, how is it?" Zhou Shuwan asked in a low voice while standing aside.
Qi Mingyu nodded slightly, his eyes still fixed on the water: "It's coming soon."
As the water surged, the fishing net slowly floated towards another ice cave.
Qi Mingyu was quick-witted and quick-handed. He used a stick to lightly pick up the fishing net and fixed it in place.
The fishing net floated quietly on the water, and unaware fish bumped into the net from time to time.
Zhou Shuwan and his family held their breath and maintained absolute silence, for fear of disturbing the fish.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the cold wind was biting. Although the air-conditioned clothes could keep warm, the hands and feet of the people who stayed there motionlessly were numb.
An hour later, Qi Mingyu signaled that it was time to close the net.
Zhou Jianghai and Qi Mingyu slowly pulled the heavy fishing net out of the water.
The fishing nets were full of lively cod, but as soon as they emerged from the water, they all turned into hard frozen fish, and their scales shone silver under the light.
"Wow! So many fish!" Mu Mu exclaimed in a low voice, very surprised.
Zhou Shuwan glanced at Qi Mingyu.
The latter called out to Mu Mu: "Come here and take a look, Mu Mu."
They had two fishing nets in total. Now that one has been pulled up, the other one should be almost done.
