When most of the fish were in the net, Mo Beihan closed the net and moved all the fish to an open space at the side. Then, he continued to cast the net.
There were about a dozen fish in the open space. There were also some small ones. Gu Qingyao didn't want them and put them all back into the water.
The remaining big fish looked very pleasing as they were alive and kicking.
There were two very big fish in the net. They were about six catties.
"These two are so big. This fish head is the best to make tofu soup," Gu Qingyao said with a smile.
Mo Beihan glanced at them. "If you like them, you can bring them back. Chop the fish head and make soup. As for those grass carps, you can take the wooden bucket and get some water to keep them. I want to bring them back alive."
Gu Qingyao obediently took the wooden bucket and filled it with water. There were four grass carps, each weighing about one catty.
Mo Beihan gave Gu Qingyao a small dagger and asked her to kill the fish by the water. He cast the net twice, but the fish decreased. He only caught about ten big fish.
There were a total of twenty-six fish. It was a good harvest.
Mo Beihan went to find a few branches and built a shelf. He said to Gu Qingyao, "Hang the fish on this shelf. It's very safe here. Let's leave the things here to dry. We'll bring some back tonight. It'll be too eye-catching if we bring too much."
In this era, these things would make people go crazy. If they brought them to the black market, they would definitely be priceless.
Gu Qingyao nodded to show that she understood.
They had done this in her previous life. She was used to it.
Mo Beihan went to get some branches. After sharpening them, he made a door. He tied the sharp parts outside to prevent wild animals from coming in. Then, he got some hay and laid it at the door.
Then, he said to Gu Qingyao, "I'm going out for a while. Don't leave this place. I won't go far. If anything happens, call me immediately. If wild animals come, light the fire. Those things are afraid of fire. I made a row of bells outside. If something comes, the bells will ring. "
Gu Qingyao smiled and said obediently, "I know, don't worry!"
Mo Beihan was afraid that the hay wasn't enough, so he went to get a bundle of firewood and placed it beside Gu Qingyao. Only then did he feel relieved.
Although he knew that this place was very safe, and in his previous life, no wild beasts had ever entered this place. However, it was better to be safe than sorry. This girl was his treasure, and he couldn't let her get hurt or scared.
After Mo Beihan left, Gu Qingyao began to clean up the fish. After she was done, she tied them up with a straw rope and hung them on a rack.
There were only a few fish in total, and six of them were grass carps. Mo Beihan wanted them alive, so Gu Qingyao cleaned them up in less than an hour.
Was she going to stay here forever?
Of course not.
She was very clear about how many good things there were around here. Besides, with her current skills, she didn't have to worry about encountering those dangers.
Although this was a primeval forest, it wasn't very deep. At most, there would be wild boars, wolves, and other animals. However, these were probably pitifully few. It was impossible to encounter tigers.
She still had her interspace, so she didn't have to worry at all.
Carrying a basket and a cloth bag, Gu Qingyao went out to cover the entrance of the cave. Then, she went directly into the forest.
As soon as she went over, she saw mushrooms all over the ground.
