A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 693 Why weren’t you stabbed to death!

"No, I'll do it myself."

Sophia shook her head, then imitated Leon's previous actions and grabbed the crayfish's back shell, then pulled it off roughly. Because she used too much force, she directly tore off the pig liver tied to the fishing line.

However, the loss was not too great, and it did not affect its continued use. Moreover, even if it all fell off, Lyon still had enough pig liver to tie it again, so there was no need to be careful at all.

"You're so strong." The gluttonous crayfish in Sophia's hand finally reacted and frantically shook its tail to try to break free from Sophia's hand. Unfortunately, its strength was far inferior to that of humans, and in the end it could not escape the fate of staying in the bucket with its previous colleague.

What makes it better than its predecessor is that when it falls into the bucket, it also brings a piece of loot with it.

Sophia's success also inspired the girls' fighting spirit and passion, and the sudden appearance of fishy pig liver at the bottom of the riverbed also attracted the attention of many crayfish, who flapped their tails and gathered here.

So from then on, the girls almost never stopped fishing with their shrimp rods.

“I caught it.”

"I've taken the bait here, too."

"Hahaha, there are actually two! How lucky!"

"Ah, ran away, damn it."

The girls' cries of joy or frustration were heard everywhere, and the scene was lively with laughter and chatter.

Almost every girl had the experience of catching a crayfish, including Haley. Unfortunately, Haley was the only unlucky one whose crayfish ran away just after she lifted the rod and dragged it out of the water.

But this did not dampen her enthusiasm. She continued to throw the pig liver into the water, then reached out to Leon, asking for a second shrimp fishing rod. It seemed that she was planning to take a two-pronged approach.

After all, she is a strong-willed girl. Seeing that others have made some progress while her current record is still 0, she naturally feels a little dissatisfied.

Leon didn't spoil her fun. He pulled one out of the ground and handed it to Haley, then continued to pay attention to the movements of his remaining two shrimp fishing rods.

"Here it comes!" Haley had just taken the second shrimp fishing rod and had not yet had time to throw it into the water when the fishing line of the first shrimp fishing rod straightened up. Haley was shocked and hurriedly lifted the rod.

This time, the crayfish's claws were tightly grasped and did not fall off after being taken out of the water. Haley successfully pulled it ashore.

Haley, who finally got something, seemed to have forgotten her previous lesson and couldn't wait to reach out and pick the crayfish off.

But her movements were obviously not right. Everyone caught crayfish from behind, but Haley didn't know whether she forgot or was too excited, so she attacked from the front. The crayfish felt a pair of big hands appear in front of it, and without hesitation, it grabbed it with its free claw.

"Click."

Before Hailey could react, the crayfish, about to be caught, was crushed by a powerful hand, its shell crackling with a resounding sound. "Should I say you're a shrew, or brave? You're going to grab this thing head-on. Where's the trauma of your childhood?"

The owner of this big hand was Leon. When Haley shouted "coming", he turned his gaze over and watched Haley pick up the crayfish, and he was ready to help.

Who knew that this guy would not play by the rules, but just reached out to grab, completely forgetting his previous nervousness, and even attacked head-on. If Leon had not been by her side, Haley's delicate skin would have been red and bleeding.

"Sorry, I got so excited. Is your hand okay?"

At this moment, Haley also reacted. Leon had just crushed a crayfish with his bare hands. Not to mention the strength, the crayfish's shell has barbs, and the shell is very hard. The broken shell fragments are not much less sharp than glass. If Leon crushed the shell like this, his palm might be pierced by the broken shell.

"I'm fine, it's the one that's in trouble."

Lyon smiled and spread out his palm, showing the unfortunate crayfish in his palm. At this moment, it no longer looked as majestic as it did when it came out of the water. Its entire body was deflated, and it was a barely recognizable remains mixed with yellow, red and white things, all mixed together into a disgusting mass.

But Haley did not despise her. Instead, she held up Leon's palm, pushed away the mess, and looked at Leon's palm carefully. She found that Leon's skin was not damaged at all, and then she relaxed.

"I told you it's okay." Leon shrugged and complained, then subconsciously glanced at Abigail and found that Abigail was staring at the water and didn't look over here. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief and quickly pulled his hand out of Haley's hand.

"Are you so afraid of Abigail?" Haley saw Leon's little movements clearly in front of her. She didn't need to think about it to know that Leon was worried that Abigail would misunderstand their interaction just now, so he couldn't help complaining.

"I don't want to cause trouble." Leon explained, "Relationships require mutual respect and maintenance."

"Why didn't that crayfish kill you just now?" Haley frowned and cursed Leon viciously.

"There's nothing I can do. I have thick skin and flesh." Lyon joked, then squatted down and dipped the hand that had just crushed the crayfish into the water, washing off the remaining shrimp meat, shrimp roe, and some shrimp shell fragments.

"Next time, scratch your back or come to me. Otherwise, don't blame me when you cry because you get pinched."

"Oh, no need, I can do it myself." Haley retorted to Leon with a stern face.

"Okay, respect." Leon didn't know why Haley changed her attitude so quickly, but he didn't want to curry favor with someone who didn't like him, so he left Haley immediately.

"This guy is so hateful!" Looking at Leon's back as he left in a leisurely manner, Haley was so angry that her teeth were itching, but she was too embarrassed to ask Leon to stay, and she was even more unwilling to give in. She could only throw the pig liver back into the water with hatred, thinking of using this method to divert her attention.

On the other side, Lyon also had his moment of harvest. The fishing lines tied to the two shrimp fishing rods were stretched straight, and it seemed that they had been dragged for a while.

Lyon used both hands, left and right, and lifted the pole together, picking up the two crayfish that were clinging to the pig liver. Then he carried the pole to the bucket and shook it a few times. The pig liver that was shaking up and down, combined with gravity, shook the two crayfish off, and the crayfish fell directly into the bucket, hitting the crayfish that had been quiet inside and suddenly became stressed, and they fled around in the bucket with crackling sounds.
