165: There's something, but not much.

The comments in the livestream room were also popping up one after another.

“From now on, Brother Gu has stepped onto a path of no return~”

“Ding~ Congratulations to Brother Gu for unlocking the Newbie Gift Pack~”

“It's clearly just the Newbie Protection Period, okay?~”

“LMAO, Brother Wo Zi said it twice and it didn't work, but as soon as he stopped talking, a fish was caught~ What a jinx~”

Gao Xiaofan looked at the messages in the comments and suddenly seemed to realize something.

Could it be that the effect of this title is that bad things come true while good things don't?

Thinking of this, he felt more and more that his guess might be correct.

Perhaps he should talk about line snaps, escaping fish, and broken rods?

Gao Xiaofan looked up at Qiu Gu with a mischievous grin, only to find that he had already baited his hook and cast it into the water again.

Good grief, he's addicted now~

Seeing Qiu Gu's excited face, Gao Xiaofan swallowed the words he was about to say. If he went too hard all at once and ruined the interest Brother Gu had finally developed, that wouldn't be good~

He then glanced at Li Yuer nearby and found that she was also staring intently at her float~

He shook his head; his future teammate wouldn't do either~

Gao Xiaofan stood up and picked up his phone stand. These two were no good, but weren't there others?~

Weren't those four idiots from the Independent Regiment there too?~

He might as well go check on them. Since they were finally fishing together, how could they not brag and chat a bit?~

“Brothers, let's go check on the Independent Regiment~ After all, they came from so far away to play with us, we can't just focus on fishing, right?~”

Gao Xiaofan chuckled, interacting with the fans in the livestream room while walking towards the Independent Regiment with his phone.

Before he even reached them, he heard the four idiots blabbering about something, firing off a barrage of words.

Second Battalion Commander: “I don't care, I want to find Number 88~”

Regimental Commander: “Oh man, I'm really fed up. We're already in Nancheng, where am I supposed to find Number 88 for you?~”

Pillar: “Number 88 is really not bad~”

Second Battalion Commander: “I'll kill you!”

Gao Xiaofan couldn't help but cough and called out a greeting.

“How's it going, guys?~”

The group stopped their rowdiness and looked over.

“Not bad, we've caught a few so far, but none of them are big.” The Regimental Commander stood up and handed over a cigarette.

Gao Xiaofan set down his stand, took the cigarette, lit it, and squatted to the side. It was only then that he noticed something.

It turned out only the Regimental Commander, Pillar, and the Company Commander were fishing, while the Second Battalion Commander was just sitting on the bank.

“Why isn't the Second Battalion Commander fishing?~” Gao Xiaofan asked curiously, exhaling a puff of smoke.

“Hehe, I don't know how to fish~” The Second Battalion Commander laughed sheepishly.

Gao Xiaofan nodded. That made sense; otherwise, if he sat by the river without casting a few lines, he would have wondered if the Second Battalion Commander was a recovering addict.

After a while, the Company Commander hooked a fish. It looked quite large. The Regimental Commander stood up, grabbed the Landing Net, and walked over. Gao Xiaofan also stood up, picked up his stand, and guiltily leaned in.

“Company Commander, you'd better keep it steady, don't let the fish escape now~”

After saying that, Gao Xiaofan felt a sense of relief in his heart. Damn, he felt like he was doing something bad~

“No way, my hook has barbs.”

The Company Commander calmly held the rod and played the fish.

Three minutes later, the Regimental Commander steadily scooped up a Grass Carp of about two catties with the Landing Net.

Gao Xiaofan stood behind them, completely bewildered. This didn't work either?

At this moment, he even suspected if he had obtained a fake title.

Just as he was about to ask the system how to use it, he heard the Company Commander shout 'holy crap' in surprise.

He subconsciously turned his head and saw the Grass Carp leap out of the Landing Net, landing back in the water with a splash.

“Don't blame me, it's your own problem~” The Regimental Commander quickly shifted the blame.

The Company Commander looked frustrated. If he had known, he would have kept the Landing Net further from the bank.

Gao Xiaofan was completely shocked. Good grief, he had seen fish escape after being brought ashore before, but this time it seemed entirely because of his words.

This title really has something to it~

The members of the Independent Regiment didn't suspect Gao Xiaofan. After all, everyone had experienced a fish escaping after reaching the shore.

However, the viewers in the livestream room noticed.

“Holy cow, Brother Wo Zi's mouth is blessed today.”

“Bad things come true, but good things don't~”

“Superstition~ It was clearly just the Company Commander being careless!”

Gao Xiaofan glanced at the comments, feeling a bit guilty again. He said goodbye to the Independent Regiment, picked up his stand, and turned back toward his fishing spot.

Time to slip away~

In ten minutes, Qiu Gu had already caught three Crucian Carp. He was currently very excited, muttering something under his breath.

Gao Xiaofan was happy to see this. He set down his stand and leaned back in his fishing chair.

The title 'my livestream, my rules' had something to it, but not much. He originally thought it could give him buffs, but he didn't expect it could only add debuffs~

But the things given by this system were always like this; he was used to it.

Making perfectly good bait look like oligie—could a normal system even do such a thing?

Gao Xiaofan lay comfortably in his chair, looking at Li Yuer's beautiful silhouette from behind, and his mind began to wander again.

If only this were Little Yu, how great would that be~

Time passed quickly. At dusk, everyone packed up their rods. Gao Xiaofan chatted with the fans in the livestream room for a while before ending the stream.

He didn't plan to stay in a hotel tonight; he would just make do here for the night and move to a new spot after fishing a bit more tomorrow.

Since the livestream had been on the whole time, the power bank might not keep up. Although the outdoor power supply could charge things, it was also needed for cooking.

Gao Xiaofan looked toward the Independent Regiment and shouted, “Guys, come help out!~”

Qiu Gu had already started moving the stove and barbecue grill, while Li Yuer began sorting the catch, keeping the big ones and releasing the small ones.

The Independent Regiment heard the call and shouted back. Then, several sturdy men were seen carrying chairs and their catch, sprinting wildly toward them.

“We're planning to make do here tonight, what about you guys?~”

The Regimental Commander heard Gao Xiaofan's words, looked at the few people behind him, and scratched his head.

“Then we'll probably have to stay in a hotel. We only have one tent.”

“Then are you eating here, or going to the county town to eat?~”

Gao Xiaofan asked while pouring sauce into a basin.

“Uh, is it convenient?~”

“What are you talking about? I only asked because I was afraid you wouldn't be used to the food. Aren't you staying in the county? It's on the way, but if you're willing to eat with us, that's even better.”

Gao Xiaofan looked up and bared his teeth in a grin.

The Regimental Commander also laughed loudly and waved his hand. “Brothers, help out!~ Company Commander, go get the booze!”

The Company Commander had a bitter face and seemed to hesitate!

“Look at that cowardly look of yours. You're driving, so you're not allowed to drink tonight!”

The Regimental Commander stood with his hands on his hips, looking disdainful.

Hearing this, the Company Commander instantly felt energized and skipped toward the car.

Everyone laughed at the sight, then quickly dispersed to get busy.

Killing fish, moving chairs, starting the fire—the quiet riverbank suddenly became lively.
