112: Unsheathed (Enhanced Version) Title

Gao Xiaofan picked up the rods, bit off the rod plug with his mouth, then tucked the rods under his left arm and pulled out the rod tip.

He pushed the space beans of the line set aside, looped it onto the rod tip, and then slowly pushed it tight with his right hand.

Knotting the sub-line with one hand was a bit troublesome, but after fumbling around for a while, he finally got it done; Qiu Gu had helped him insert the float.

With a flick of his single hand, Gao Xiaofan sent the lead weight and float crashing toward the water's surface.

A "plop~" sound echoed as the float completely submerged under the water.

Gao Xiaofan lifted the rods, and Qiu Gu helped him pull the float from the side.

"Right, Brother Gu, pull it up, pull it up about a meter~"

This time he was using a 6.3-meter a specific fishing rod model all-around rod, with a size 2 main line and a size 0.6 sub-line. If it were according to his previous habits, in such a large body of water, his first cast would definitely be an 8+6.

But now that he only had his right arm, he thought better of it; if he were dragged underwater, who knew what kind of misery he would suffer.

Ever since the debris flow, he had realized that the effect of the Safety Helmet title was very powerful, but it could also result in disability.

It was true that there was no life-threatening danger, but his left arm was ruined. If it had hit a bit lower and damaged his "little brother," what would he have done?

Thinking of this, Gao Xiaofan couldn't help but chuckle.

After searching for the bottom a few times, he found the water depth was four meters.

After adjusting the float, Gao Xiaofan picked at a piece of corn, slicing off its tender sprout with his fingernail until the milky white juice flowed out. He fumbled to hook it on, and with a one-handed cast, the elasticity of the rods swung the corn out, landing steadily in the baited spot.

Qiu Gu set up the tripod and mounted the phone on it, while he continued to organize the gear.

When fishing, Gao Xiaofan was basically in a state where he was oblivious to the outside world, only throwing in a few kernels of corn every minute.

However, by mealtime, there hadn't been a single sign of movement.

Not even a single nibble on the float~

Gao Xiaofan stared at the float, his mind beginning to wander.

Only then did he remember there was another title he hadn't used yet: the Never Resting title.

For every new body of water he fished in, his fishing skill proficiency would increase by 0.1. He had to set that up immediately~

"Titles cannot be used cumulatively."

While Gao Xiaofan was dazed, the notification sound in his mind rang intermittently, seeming a bit glitched.

"Detected... Never Resting... and Sheathed title... high similarity, fusing titles..."

"Sheathed (Enhanced Version) Title Effect 1: For every new body of water fished in, +0.1 proficiency, fishing skill increases by 0.1, up to a maximum of 100 points."

"Sheathed (Enhanced Version) Title Effect 2: For every new body of water fished in, yun jian value +1, up to a maximum of 100 points. The sword can only be Sheathed after the yun jian value is fully stacked. After being Sheathed, the yun jian area will be enhanced."

"Sheathed title yun jian location: ... Xiaofan... Left Arm."

"Sheathed (Enhanced Version) Title: Proficiency 0.2, fishing skill increases by 0.2, yun jian value +1."

Hearing the notification in his mind, Gao Xiaofan didn't quite react. It didn't seem like there was much difference, just that the two titles had fused.

It's just that the original Sheathed effect was now more detailed, requiring 100 different bodies of water to be fully stacked.

Also, what was with this "Xiaofan" address? Hadn't it always been Host before?

Gao Xiaofan looked bewildered.

Shaking his head, he jumped from the fishing platform toward the shore. His waist felt a bit sore after sitting on the fishing box for so long.

Looking at the Steamed Bun Qiu Gu handed over, Gao Xiaofan's face darkened, but he took it anyway.

The bullet chat in the livestream room was sparse; he glanced over and saw the number of viewers had dropped by more than half.

"Hahahaha, back to gnawing on Steamed Buns again~"

"Brother Qiu Gu even pulled out the pot and set it up, but who would've thought? Brother Wo Zi has come up empty-handed~"

Gao Xiaofan and Qiu Gu crouched on the ground, gnawing on Steamed Buns.

"Xiaofan, maybe next time we should buy some pickled mustard or something~ It's a bit hard to swallow just these Steamed Buns."

Gao Xiaofan glanced at Qiu Gu beside him.

"Why buy pickled mustard? No way, you don't actually think I won't catch any fish, do you?"

After swallowing the Steamed Bun, Gao Xiaofan angrily ran to the trunk of the car and started rummaging through the bait, muttering under his breath.

"If I can't catch big ones, can't I go for the small ones? I'm going to pull some White Striped Fish."

He picked up Blue Crucian, 918, and Speed Attack 2, tossed them on the ground, and pulled out a bait mixing basin.

After tearing open the bait bags with his teeth, Gao Xiaofan began preparing them.

How he missed the secret small bait given by the system~

In the afternoon, Gao Xiaofan got busy. He set up two rod rests, one with a 6.3-meter rod and one with a 4.5-meter rod. The long rod was baited with corn, and the short rod used pull-bait.

All afternoon, there was no movement on the long rod. Originally, he had maintained the frequency of throwing in a few kernels of corn every minute, but later on, as he kept pulling in White Striped Fish with the short rod, Gao Xiaofan became too busy to keep up.

Gao Xiaofan lifted the fish basket, looked at the dozens of lively White Striped Fish, nodded in satisfaction, and tossed them toward the shore.

Thanks to the fan group "Fishing Mission System" for providing the material (we usually can't catch such "improper" fish~)

"Brother Gu, clean them up, we'll deep-fry them later! If you don't know how, just ask the bullet chat~"

Qiu Gu also nodded excitedly. He suddenly found that this kind of life was quite good, very leisurely~

Gao Xiaofan picked up the a specific fishing rod model rods, cast again, and used the baiting spoon to add some more corn.

There's no reason such a beautiful body of water wouldn't have fish~

Behind him, Qiu Gu humbly asked the viewers in the livestream room how to clean the White Striped Fish.

Before long, the unique aroma of deep-frying wafted through the air. Gao Xiaofan lost his focus on fishing; he had only gnawed on one Steamed Bun at noon.

After jumping back onto the shore, he reached out and grabbed a crispy deep-fried White Striped Fish and stuffed it into his mouth. It was incredibly fragrant; with one bite, he swallowed it down, fish bones and all.

"Not bad, the taste is excellent~"

Hearing Gao Xiaofan's praise, Qiu Gu also laughed.

After eating, Qiu Gu started setting up the tent, while Gao Xiaofan interacted with the audience with a look of annoyance.

"No, really, I honestly didn't know it would be this hard to fish here~"

"I'll fish a bit longer tonight. If it really doesn't work out, we'll just have to pack up and leave."

Putting on his headlamp, Gao Xiaofan carefully jumped onto the fishing platform. Looking up, he realized that the float had actually drifted more than a meter away.

Whoa, the water is even flowing~

Gao Xiaofan speechlessly lifted the rod, but as soon as he did, his expression changed, and he felt uneasy.

Something's wrong. There's something on the hook, but it's definitely not a fish!

There wasn't even a hint of struggling force.

Feeling the weight transmitted through the rods, he breathed a sigh of relief. At least it wasn't a corpse; the weight wasn't too heavy.

Qiu Gu, behind him, also heard the commotion. He quickly put down the tent he had just moved out and rushed over holding the Gimbal.

As a professional cameraman for many years, his instincts were top-notch~

If Gao Xiaofan hooked a big fish, he had to capture the footage. Qiu Gu walked to the shore while constantly adjusting the livestream room's camera, even turning on the beauty filters.
