Wu Chen had been watching Lin Xi's actions from the side, and soon he figured out how this thing worked.

So he went under the shed and took out four wooden sticks, brought them to a place not far from Lin Xi, took a rope from in front of Lin Xi, squatted on the ground, and tried to tie the second net.

It's very fast when two people do this together!

Before the sun set, Lin Xi and Wu Chen finally managed to make six nets of the same size.

Lin Xi tied the six nets together, two by two, to make three large nets.

Then she used three two-meter-long wooden sticks to tie them into a triangle and made the net mouth. Then she tied the three large nets to the three wooden sticks respectively, and then tied the three nets together carefully. A somewhat large triangular fishing net was completely made!

Lin Xi couldn't wait to try it out with the fishing net!

She asked Wu Chen to take the fishing net to the river first, while she went back to the cave to get a backpack to prepare to use it to catch the fish.

When we arrived at the river, we saw Wu Chen standing in the river, trying to lower the fishing net into the water.

The fishing net made by Lin Xi is not the kind of big net that is cast into the river. Instead, people have to hold the net, walk in the river, and net the fish in.

Wu Chen seemed to have found out how to use the fishing net in the water, but he had not yet figured out the more important techniques.

It was evening now, and the fish in the river all rushed to the surface to breathe. Just by walking a few steps along the river, you could see a dense school of fish.

Because the orcs seldom eat fish, there are quite a few fish in this river. In just a short while, Wu Chen caught more than ten fish just by trying it himself!

It’s a pity that the fish in this river are not very big.

Lin Xi looked at them and found that the bigger ones were only about three pounds, not many, and most of them were small fish weighing one or two pounds!

But Lin Xi was already very satisfied!

She can finally change her taste!

During this period, she has been trying her best to change the taste of food with existing ingredients, but unfortunately, there are still only a few kinds of food that she eats regularly, and she is really sick of it!

The water in the river was very cold at this season. Lin Xi did not go into the water, but Wu Chen was not afraid of the water temperature.

After Lin Xi told Wu Chen how to use the fishing net, he studied it by himself by the water for a while. Soon, he dragged the fishing net into the water.

Lin Xi stood by the He River, watching Wu Chen dragging the fishing net across the water.

The clear river water became turbid with the violent movement, while the quiet river bank was gradually filled with a bunch of live fish jumping around.

Lin Xi quickly found a stone and smashed the fish on the ground to death one by one and piled them together.

Seeing that it was almost time, she stopped Wu Chen and asked him to come out of the water.

The sun is setting and the orcs who have gone out will soon be back. They will come here to fetch water when they make dinner.

Although as a wise man, Lin Xi will eventually tell them how to make fishing nets, but that is not now.

She still wants them to focus on stockpiling food for the winter, so she won't teach them anything new for the time being.

Wu Chen caught a total of seven fish nets. Of course, not all of them were full, but overall, Lin Xi was very satisfied.

These fish must weigh at least a hundred pounds. If Wu Chen eats them alone, they would be enough for him to have two meals!

What surprised Lin Xi even more was that in addition to the fish in the river, there were actually a dozen river clams and a small handful of river shrimps hanging on the fishing net!

There are actually these things!

You have to know that before this, Lin Xi had already given up the fantasy of being able to eat other river seafood besides fish!

After all, she had come to the river so many times and dug through the cracks in the rocks by the river, but she had never seen a river shrimp or clam.

She looked at the river clams that were as big as two palms, and suddenly thought, I wonder if there are snails in this river?

Perhaps when she has time, she should go to the upstream and downstream of the river beach to take a look.

While thinking about this, Lin Xi put the pile of dead fish in front of him into the backpack.

There were nearly 100 kilograms of fish, and the backpack was too big to fit in at once. He went back and forth three times before he could get them all in.

Of course, this kind of heavy work is still done by Wu Chen.

After carrying all the fish back to the cave, Lin Xi first asked Wu Chen to light the fireplace and put a pot of water in it to boil.

And she quickly processed more than twenty fish!

She planned to make dinner first and then deal with the remaining fish that she would not eat for the time being.

Because Wu Chen never ate fish before, Lin Xi was not sure whether Wu Chen would eat the fish she cooked this time, so she just planned to cook a little less today to see how Wu Chen would accept it.

If Wu Chen still doesn't like the fish after adding seasoning, then next time she cooks fish, she will just cook it the way she likes!

Wu Chen had already started a fire under the stove. Lin Xi cleaned the fruit shell pot, waited for the moisture inside to dry up, scooped a spoonful of oil into it, and put two salty stones in it at the same time.

When cooking fish, put the fish into the pan with hot oil. After the oil is hot, sprinkle salt on the edge of the pan to prevent the fish from getting skinned.

At the moment, although I don’t know whether putting salty stones in the oil before frying will have the same effect, it’s better than nothing!

Lin Xi waited until the oil was heated up, then used chopsticks to pick out the salty stones that were in the way, and then used a spatula to spread the hot oil around the pot, hoping to mix the salt in the oil more evenly.

Then she picked up a clean fish, pinched the fish tail and slowly put it into the pot!

Zi La La ~

The sound of meat frying in hot oil rang out in the kitchen, and Lin Xi quickly put the remaining two pieces in.

After waiting for a while, she felt that it was almost done, so she turned the three fish over one by one.

A large piece of fish skin still fell off!

Lin Xi sighed, but there was nothing he could do without salt powder.

After turning over all three fish, she scooped a large basin of water from the boiling water by the fireplace, poured it into the fish pot, then covered the pot and started to stew the soup!

Just let the fish soup simmer slowly!

Taking advantage of this time, Lin Xi processed the clams and shrimps.

She planned to put the shrimp into the fish soup and grill the clams directly.

These two things are much harder to preserve than fish, so she didn't dare to keep them for too long, so she might as well eat them directly.

Then she started to make grilled fish.

She had already marinated the remaining dozen or so fish, and now she would just string them on branches and roast them in the fireplace along with the marinated meat.

When Lin Xi built the stove, he did not build a barbecue area in the cave, mainly because the smoke was too strong. If he dug an oven on the stone wall, it would not be much different from a fireplace.

Since she was burning wood anyway, she simply used the fireplace as an oven.

An aroma different from previous food gradually filled the entire cave. Lin Xi's stomach growled uncontrollably in anticipation.

But she didn't expect that she was not the only one whose stomach was growling.

She turned to look at Wu Chen who was sitting in front of the stove and couldn't help laughing.

At this time, Wu Chen looked expectant, and his thick and long black tail was swinging back and forth restlessly behind him.
