Chapter 4
All afternoon, He Qiang sat patiently by the riverbank collecting energy. Except for going to the river to find a thicker pointed wooden stick to prepare for spearing fish, he did not make any movements.
This was all to conserve energy and save it for the most critical moment!
While waiting, He Qiang found that even if it was blocked by clouds, energy collection would not stop, but the efficiency would slow down.
This discovery made He Qiang even happier.
This means that even if there is no sun in winter, he can still collect energy!
All afternoon, He Qiang waited very patiently for the strange stone to charge.
He planned to do a big job today. If he ran out of energy halfway and scared away the remaining fish, shrimps and crabs, wouldn’t that be a big loss?
So he planned to save enough energy and get enough at once!
God will not let down those who work hard. Until the sun set and it was almost dusk, He Qiang stood up.
He took off his shoes and clothes, and He Qiang, who was wearing only a pair of shorts, directly activated his ability!
All the aquatic plants in the river channel covered by his perception were connected to him. The moment his thoughts were sent out, these aquatic plants changed their previous calmness and instantly and frantically entangled the fish, shrimps and crabs.
"Huh!? This is……"
In his perception, a huge figure was struggling frantically with great strength, and was about to break free from the water plants.
He Qiang's eyes suddenly turned red, and he became anxious.
He rushed into the water and wanted to catch the huge fish quickly, but the resistance of the river water made it difficult for him to walk, and he couldn't get through for a while.
""Fuck! You stay here!"
He Qiang shouted. In a hurry, the phantom of the strange stone in his mind flashed green light, and an amazing scene appeared in an instant.
All the water plants in the straight line in front of He Qiang began to grow wildly, as if an invisible big hand was pulling them up one by one.
In his mind, He Qiang could feel a very strong emotion coming.
It was as if those wildly growing water plants were cheering.
The row of surging weeds danced wildly, and they were more and more tightly entangled with all the fish, shrimps and crabs around them, and even the clams in the mud were lifted up and entangled tightly.
He Qiang was also stunned by himself.
Energy, can it be used like this?
However, the phantom of the strange stone in his mind also became dim, almost completely transparent.
The energy accumulated in the afternoon was almost drained because of this wave of explosion, which made the water plants grow wildly.
""Hiss."
He Qiang took a breath of cold air, and then hurried into the water to catch fish.
Fortunately, because of the wild growth just now, even if He Qiang was not directing them now, the water plants still tightly entangled the animals and made them unable to move.
The small fish and shrimps stood aside first. He Qiang first came to the position of the big fish, raised the branch and thrust it hard.
Puff!
The branch went straight through the fish's head. Under He Qiang's command, the water plants entangled with it loosened, and then the big fish was successfully lifted up by him.
"Wow! This grass carp weighs at least 10 jin!"
He Qiang grinned and threw the grass carp into the backpack.
Then, he started fishing!
His sense of water plants can distinguish the size and shape of fish and shrimp, so he only caught the larger ones.
Catch the big ones and release the small ones, and sustainably exhaust the pond to catch all the fish!
"Well, this crucian carp weighs at least six taels."
"Although the river shrimps are not big, one bowl of them should be enough for frying. They are delicious when eaten with wine!"
"June is yellow, July is tasty. Although it is only May in the lunar calendar, I eat meat. Hehehe, this crab is good, and the size is okay."
After some exploration, He Qiang's backpack was suddenly filled with a bunch of trophies.
There were a total of more than ten river clams, each at least as big as the palm of your hand! More than a dozen crabs were also caught, and now each of them was waving its claws in the backpack.
The biggest harvest was fish!
There were three crucian carps, almost two and a half catties, and one grass carp, at least ten catties!
Those small river shrimps were caught by He Qiang in his shirt pocket.
He held the backpack and ran home in a hurry with his bare chest.
At this moment, the sky was already covered with scorching clouds, and no one was busy in the fields. Smoke had already risen from every household.
Under the setting sun, He Qiang ran wildly with the backpack in his arms as if he was chased by a dog.
When he arrived at the door of the old house, He Qiang heard the noise from afar.
"Mom! I'm exhausted after a whole day. I don't know where that bastard ran off to, and you asked me to wait for him to eat together!"
"Then go make it yourself! This is what Xiaohua made for me! I can wait if I want!"
"Mom, I earned this food! How could you do this! I don't know where that bastard has gone to, why should I wait for him if he doesn't come back to eat!"
"I raised you, so what’s wrong with me asking you to wait?"
"……"
If it were normal, He Qiang would definitely wait for He Yongjun to calm down before going back.
But now, looking at the pile of spoils in his arms, He Qiang walked into the yard with a heroic and high-spirited look.
""Grandma, I'm back!"
He Qiang put the backpack in the yard and shouted at the top of his voice.
"You, a fairy, still remember to come back? You don't learn your lesson and just go out to play. Don't you see what time it is?"
He Yongjun came out of the house in a rage, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to deal with He Qiang.
Seeing this, Old Lady He quickly followed and shouted:
"Our youngest son has learned a lot. He is very filial! At least he doesn't dare to do anything bad."
Wu Shuhua watched the farce and held the trembling He Tiantian in his arms without saying a word.
Her husband was so lazy because he was spoiled.
The old lady's requirements for him were really too low.……
"Dad, don't do it! I'm going out to do some serious work today!"
At the door, He Qiang deliberately put the backpack behind him, intending to show off later, but he didn't expect He Yongjun to rush over and give him a big punch.
Fortunately, He Qiang was quick-witted and held He Yongjun. At this time, Old Lady He came over, she stood on tiptoe, put one hand on her youngest son's shoulder, and the other hand went straight to his ear.���
"Hey, mom, what are you doing?!"
""Let go, let my little son go!"
He Yongjun almost died of anger at his mother.
It was clearly him who was held by He Qiang!
"Mom, just spoil him! He is already in his twenties and has children running all over the place! Now not only our team says he is a loser, but the news has spread to the neighboring village! Do you want to save our family's reputation?"
He Yongjun loosened his hand and was about to jump up in anger.
Old Mrs. He protected He Qiang behind her and scolded:"How can he be a loser? He knows how to be filial to me! You are the only heartless person who makes your mother angry every day! What kind of work do you want him to do? Isn't it enough for him to live a simple life in peace and health? You haven't earned a mountain of gold and silver for me!"
He Yongjun was so angry that he rolled his eyes.
I have never seen such a biased person!
He Qiang on the side felt a little embarrassed, and quickly moved the backpack behind him and said:
"Grandma, don't be angry, I caught some fish for you! Let's eat fish, shrimp, crabs, and clams today!" When
He Yongjun saw the basket of fish and shrimp, his eyes widened and he looked like he had seen a ghost.
"Where did you steal it from?"
He Yongjun became nervous.
"You're talking nonsense! Our youngest son never does these sneaky things, don't wrongly accuse him!"
Old Mrs. He scolded her youngest son, then turned her head and smiled at He Qiang and praised him:"I know that my youngest son is the best. You have grandma in your heart. It's not in vain that I love you. You must be exhausted today. Come into the house and sit down quickly. Let your dad clean up these things. We will have a good meal tonight!"
