Fishing was a form of exercise.
Wu Shiyu emphasized that.
"Sitting for a whole day is equivalent to exercising for a whole day. In the end, you can even eat the fish that you catch. You really can't get any better exercise than this, "she said.
Before this, Gu Jun did not have much of an appreciation for this sport but now, he understood Dirty-minded Yu had a point.
The chirping of birds echoed through the forest and a clear river flowed by.
Gu Jun, Wu Shiyu, Cai Zixuan, Peacock, Uncle Dan and the rest were strolling, fishing and cooking fish soup by the river bank. The river was far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It also allowed them to temporarily leave the work of Phecda to enjoy this rare 3 days holiday.
Inside the rice cooker that was powered by a portable battery, the delicious fish soup bubbled and the aroma wafted through the air.
"It smells so good." Cai Zixuan stirred the soup with a spoon and sighed, "Before Mount Xi Sai, the egrets fly, the peach blossoms flow, the mandarin fish are fat."
"This poem sounds familiar …" Wu Shiyu said, "I've learned it in school before, what's next?"
"Green hat, green raincoat, the wind and rain do not need to return." Gu Jun was the first to recite, he could not let Zixuan have the last laugh.
"I told you this kind of place is not suitable for me." Uncle Dan shook his head and sighed, "I know there are other places where the egrets fly, the mandarin fish are fat, sigh!"
"You old pervert!" Lou Xiaoning scolded jokingly. Wu Shiyu shrugged and Cai Zixuan chuckled, "Uncle Dan, you are a true gentleman."
Gu Jun laughed as well. The more he laughed, the better he felt. Since last year, he had not rested for a whole year, the past two days had been a blast.
'I don't understand. 'Peacock said internally. She asked Kathlyn, "Do you understand? What does it mean? "
"I think it's about some cuisine." Kathlyn was confused as well, "But it should be a joke."
Seeing how everyone was laughing so happily, this must be a joke. However, as their Chinese was not that good, they could only be baffled.
Kathlyn, Tom, and the rest had officially joined Phecda. They had contacted their families to tell them that they were safe and had lied that they were traveling in Huaxia.
Sharing a body with another person was very inconvenient, but until he found a solution, he could only do so. Furthermore, if they were to combine the two personalities into one, they would not be the main personality because their mental power would not be as strong as Peacock's group.
Gu Jun had no idea whether there was a solution or not. Perhaps the race that created the Pnakotic Manuscripts had it but it was not in that chapter.
A few days ago, he had already drawn up the blueprints of the purification stone and the monitoring stone. He had also written down the relevant content and some of his own insights, as well as the lines on the wall in the illusion that he had tried hard to recall. Clearly, this was a copy of a copy.
The Ancient Seal Department was formed quickly and Yao Sinian was temporarily appointed as the leader.
This was an independent department. It was not only to produce Ancient Seal equipment but also to train a group of combat members who were adept at using the Ancient Seal. These people would not learn spells but they would be the ones to keep the spell users in check.
The technology to produce the Ancient Seal was provided by Gu Jun, he was also the technical consultant of the Ancient Seal Department.
In terms of manufacturing equipment, the Ancient Seal Department had produced the first batch of 5 monitoring stones and 1 purifying stone. The tests showed that they were effective but compared to the one produced by Gu Jun, they were slightly lacking in quality. After the 5 monitoring stones were used about 10 times, the opaline started to crack and rot.
The Ancient Seal Department's other experiment, using opaline from non-Australian countries was also effective.
Even though the current quality was still lacking and the production speed was slow, it had to do with the lack of mental power among the workers. As the Ancient Seal Department developed, the production rate and quality would slowly increase.
With regards to the Spell Department, they used the few pieces of equipment created by Gu Jun to survive.
Gu Jun was not forced to be a production machine because that would exhaust his mental power. He was given the task of producing 1 monitoring stone every week.
Since the purifying stone could support the Spell Department's needs, Tong Ye did not assign him this task.
Compared to the monitoring stone, purifying stone was more difficult to produce. So far Gu Jun had only produced one and it was about the size of a tablet. It was far smaller than the one he brought back, it would probably break after a few more uses.
However, this size was more suitable for a small Special Mobile Force unit. They would not be able to move if they kept dragging a large stone.
Before the holiday, Gu Jun was already so busy. After the commendation ceremony, he attended some other hero promotion activities.
He also visited some higher ups at the headquarters. This was the first time he met them. The old director was kind to him and encouraged him to continue working hard.
Even without the encouragement, Gu Jun knew he had things to do. He still needed to study the Pnakotic Manuscripts and find the other chapters. Be it to rescue the monitor or to separate Kathlyn and Peacock, he needed more technology.
He only hoped that the peaceful days would last for a few more days so that he and everyone else could adjust themselves to a better state.
Suddenly, Gu Jun felt his fishing rod move. Something pulled on it!
"Hey, hey." Wu Shiyu pointed at the river to remind him, "It's a fish!"
"I know, Shi Yu!" Gu Jun held the fishing rod carefully. When the fish bit on it, Gu Jun pulled and a large, juicy fish was pulled out of the river.
Seeing this, the crowd cheered. Lou Xiaoning said excitedly, "Let's roast this one." Cai Zixuan said immediately, "I'm an expert at roasting fish."
After that, the soup was ready. Cai Zixuan scooped out a bowl for everyone and the soup was perfectly divided.
"Ah …" Gu Jun drank the sweet soup, he was thankful that he was still alive. "Zixuan, your soup skill has improved again."
Wu Shiyu finished the soup silently and then finished the fish. "Zixuan, there will always be a spot in our restaurant's kitchen reserved for you."
Seeing everyone enjoy themselves so much, Cai Zixuan was satisfied. He saluted them happily, "The soup is good, the scenery is good and the people are even better."
After finishing the soup, the group prepared to roast the fish that Gu Jun had just caught. But at that moment, Gu Jun's phone rang.
He took it out and frowned, "It's Tong Ye."
The group instantly quieted down. Tong Ye knew how precious this holiday was to them. If there was nothing important, he would not have called at this time.
"Hello?" Gu Jun accepted the call. Looking at the flowing river, the reflection of the clouds on the surface of the water kept drifting. Suddenly, he felt a sense of foreboding.
"Ah Jun." Tong Ye's heavy voice made his heart sink. "Something has happened, your holiday will have to end early."
