After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

Chapter 742 Grilling at the Fishing Site: She's a Professional at Killing Fish
The climb up the mountain earlier had taken a toll on not only the guests but also the staff who were filming.

The guests need to search for mushrooms and dig for black truffles. The staff not only have to keep up with the guests' pace, but also carry heavy equipment to try to capture and record more wonderful scenes to present to the audience in the live broadcast room.

When the guests stopped to rest, they were also able to stop and rest for a while. Some people had already quietly taken out energy bars, chocolates and other foods that could quickly replenish their energy and put them in their mouths.

But how can these things compare to a grilled fish that's perfectly crispy on the outside, tender and fragrant on the inside, and even grilled with black truffles?

With just a slight association, the energy bar in my mouth instantly loses its flavor.

Several pairs of eyes were fixed eagerly on the pool in front of them.

However, how to catch fish is the problem!
Yue Zhuo climbed up a willow tree growing by the water, with many branches drooping to the water's surface, and broke off a few long, soft willow branches.

After coming down, they searched around the lake again, and soon dug out some white, long worms that looked like earthworms but weren't quite the same color from the soil.

Chi Song processed the willow branches as instructed, and seeing the few somewhat disgusting-looking worms he had dug out, she thought, "Fish bait?"

"Ah."

Needless to say, willow branches are the fishing rod, fishing line, and fishing hook.

This was the first time Guan Jing had ever seen such rudimentary fishing equipment. "Will this work?"

"Yes, I've fished for them. Bony fish love to eat these kinds of worms."

"Then I'll try it too."

Seeing that Guan Jing was very averse to insects, Yue Zhuo first fixed the insect to the end of the willow branch before handing over the fishing equipment made of willow branch.

Everyone else received the same treatment.

In the end, the more you touch the insect, the more it burns you.

"Sister, aren't you going fishing?"

"I'll pass," Jiang Hanying waved her hand. "I'll wait to eat."

Let her go fishing. Even if the bony fish is really craving those white worms, it wouldn't dare risk its life by opening its mouth.

If she goes, we probably won't be able to eat this fish today.

"Just you wait and see, sister."

Yue Zhuo took the last two willow branches, found a good spot, and flicked them at the same time. The branches flew through the air and slowly dipped into the pool.

【Wait, is Jiang Hanying really slacking off like this?】

Everyone else is busy fishing, and she's so idle. Isn't she afraid of getting scolded?

I think she's genuinely not afraid.

[Little Zhuo is such a good boy! When Jiang Hanying said she didn't want to fish, he obediently did the work of two people!]

[He also took good care of his older sisters in every way.]

[But this kid is probably a little glutton too, haha.]

[I was about to say that too. First, he knew the fish in the pond like the back of his hand, then he knew how to use willow branches as tools, and he was also very skilled at finding insects that fish liked to eat. I bet he must have done a lot of mischief to the fish in this pond when he was a kid.]

Although Yue Zhuo was the last to start fishing, he was also the first to catch a fish.

With a flick of his left hand, before anyone else could react, he suddenly raised his hand and flung it backward.

A fish, still biting the tail of a willow branch, was brought out and thrown onto the grass behind, where it was still lively and jumping around.

Jiang Hanying walked over and grabbed it, pinning it down.

The fish, which had been lively and jumping around, suddenly became motionless, as if their fate had been choked.

"Beautiful!" Guan Jing turned her head to look over and couldn't help but praise Yue Zhuo's efficiency. When she saw the fish that was pretending to be dead in Jiang Hanying's hand, she said, "This fish is beautiful too." It was slender, silvery-white all over, and its entire body shimmered with fine, dazzling scales in the sunlight.

If you look closely with the light shining through, you can even see the large bone running from head to tail inside the fish through the somewhat transparent flesh.

With its looks, it's more than enough to keep as an ornamental fish.

"It looks good and tastes even better."

Guan Jing: "Then let's eat."

Jiang Hanying, holding the fish in one hand, suddenly realized that if she were to grill it right there on the spot, she wouldn't have any firewood or fire.

Instead of waiting for others to catch fish, he wandered around and found a puddle with water on the bank. To prevent the fish from jumping out, he piled stones on top of it to stop them. Only then did he turn around and look for firewood and tools to start a fire.

Many people in the live stream could tell the purpose behind her actions.

Is this a preparation for grilling fish on-site?

I just checked the time, and it's almost noon already. If I take this fish home to grill, it'll take another hour or two, and it definitely won't be as fresh by then. It's better to grill it on the spot.

When she returned, dragging a tree branch as thick as her thigh in one hand and carrying firewood in the other, she heard Yuan Chaoyu's regretful voice from the pool: "Oh dear, just a little short."

"what happened?"

"The fish took the bait, but got away just as I was about to pull it out!"

"How many have you caught in total?"

"Xiao Zhuo has three, Guan Guan and Chi Song each have one, and I have zero."

When they say the last three words, it always sounds like they're gritting their teeth.

Guan Jing laughed, "Actually, Chao Yu was quite lucky. The fish bit the bait twice, but it was just a little short. It's okay, just be quicker next time, and you'll definitely catch it."

Yuan Chaoyu pursed his lips and nodded, continuing to concentrate on watching the water.

She didn't believe it yet.

After putting her things down, Jiang Hanying first went to check the small puddle where four more fish had appeared before starting to look for a safe place to build a stove and light a fire.

First, they dug a hole in the ground, then piled stones on it, and a simple stone stove was made.

Next, they untied the shoelaces and started rubbing sticks together to make fire.

The viewers in the live stream watched as a small, orange-red flame was born under her hand.

[I suddenly thought of Instructor Li.]

[I'd completely forgotten the specifics of how Instructor Li taught the guests, but these fading memories suddenly came flooding back!]

Jiang Hanying really learned it well; she only did it once, but she still remembers it to this day!

After adding branches and the fire grew bigger, and seeing that it wouldn't go out for a while without anyone watching, Jiang Hanying took out the fruit knife she had just used to cut black truffles and sharpened it for the fish in the small puddle.

Is she planning to kill the fish herself?

[They didn't call anyone else; it's quite obvious.]

【Wait, isn't Jiang Hanying unable to cook? We all worked so hard to catch this fish, we can't let it get gutted! It'll be really fishy if you accidentally break the innards!】

Yuan Chaoyu, carrying the fish he had finally caught, was about to release it into a small puddle when he turned around and saw Jiang Hanying holding the fish in one hand and a knife in the other. "You..."

Before he could finish speaking, the fruit knife cleanly and swiftly sliced ​​open the fish's belly, then placed the knife on a nearby stone. With his free fingers, he reached into the fish's belly and hooked out all the inedible internal organs.

After rinsing it with clean water, you can hold a clean fish in your hand – a truly effortless process.

She's a professional at killing fish!
