One man and one dog, wandering in the world of Monster Hunter

Chapter 259: Fisherman Can Catch Everything Except Fish



Chapter 259: Fisherman Can Catch Everything Except Fish

Night, like a layer of thick ink, gradually swallowed up the entire world.

Above the sky, the starlight is dim, and only a few tenacious stars are still trying to shine through the thick clouds, casting a little faint light.

Link and his family searched the Spinosaurus' territory and finally found a hidden cave as their shelter for the night.

The cave is located under a steep rock wall, half-hidden by dense vines and low shrubs.

At the entrance, several huge rocks are intertwined, hiding the cave perfectly.

The ground around the cave entrance was covered with thick moss, which was soft and moist to step on.

"call!"

Link let out a long sigh and threw the big wild boar on his back to the ground. Dust was immediately raised, accompanied by a heavy sound, announcing that they had secured dinner for today.

Since the dissection of the Spinosaurus was not smooth, the three had to hand over the job to the professional anatomist in the guild.

At this point, they had to make do with wild boar for dinner.

This wild boar is huge in size, with solid skin and flesh. Its fangs are like two curved sharp blades, revealing a wild power.

Sometimes, Link couldn't help but sigh that this big wild boar was really awesome.

They are found almost everywhere in the Old World, except the New World.

From cold snowfields to blazing volcanoes, and even in dangerous places where ancient dragons lurk, they can survive and reproduce leisurely.

No matter how harsh the environment is, wild boars can always find their own place to survive and are not afraid of monsters that are much stronger than them.

They can always be seen running rampant in dense forests, barren deserts, and dark swamps.

"Okay, Mom, I'll be in charge of killing the pigs, and you set up the camp."

Link called out to Fiorina, then skillfully took out the hunting dagger from his waist and began to dismember the wild boar.

His movements were clean and neat, and every cut was made with extreme precision. Soon, the pig skin was peeled off, revealing the solid muscles and thick layer of fat underneath.

A faint smell of blood began to permeate the air, drifting away with the night wind.

Seeing this, Fiorina understood and took action immediately.

She patted Lin Ya's head gently to show her gratitude, then took the package off its back, took out a simple barbecue grill, some charcoal, and a few thin blankets and began to set up camp.

Fiorina assembled the barbecue grill first. The bracket made a slight metallic collision sound, which was particularly clear in the silent cave.

Then she neatly stacked several pieces of burning charcoal under the rack. This type of charcoal burns steadily and for a long time, making it very suitable for outdoor cooking.

She took out a flint and tapped it gently a few times. Sparks flew and the carbon was quickly ignited with a slight crackling sound.

She spread a thin blanket on the ground. This kind of blanket was specially used in the wild, so even if it was covered with dust, it could be cleaned by patting it.

It can be used as a mattress, or you can wrap yourself up to keep warm when the temperature drops sharply at night.

As for Lieyan, he is not here.

He went fishing.

the other side

The stream gurgles, the breeze blows gently, and the forest is filled with the scent of moist earth.

Lieyan stood by the stream, holding a fishing rod with a focused expression.

His eyes were fixed on the water, as if waiting for some important moment to come.

"I have a feeling we'll catch something big today."

He muttered to himself, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a confident smile unique to fishermen.

He waited quietly, his eyes keenly capturing the movements in the water.

Suddenly, the fishing line trembled slightly, and Lieyan's eyes became sharp in an instant.

He gripped the fishing rod tightly, feeling the power coming from underwater, and felt excited.

"coming."

Lieyan's eyes suddenly focused, his hands exerted force instantly, his body leaned back slightly, and the whole person seemed to have turned into a bow filled with power.

The fishing rod in his hand suddenly tightened at this moment, bending into a dangerous arc and making a slight creaking sound, as if it might break under the weight at any time.

With the efforts of this master hunter, the prey under the water is finally no longer hidden.

A huge force came from underwater, causing the water surface to suddenly explode with a splash.

The fishing line quickly cut through the water, making a sharp sound of breaking through the air.

With a "puff" sound, the prey in the water jumped out and flew towards the flames.

Seeing this, Lieyan chuckled, threw the fishing rod in his hand aside, opened his arms to take it, and with a sinking of his wrists, he hugged the human-like creature.

"..."

When Lieyan lowered his head and saw clearly what he had caught, he fell into silence and the smile on his face slowly disappeared.

-

"Strange, Daddy isn't back yet? The meal is almost ready."

Link squatted beside the barbecue grill, holding a branch in his hand, and skillfully flipped the sizzling meat on the simple grill.

The aroma of meat wafts in the breeze.

Lin Ya had arrived early, his saliva dripping all over the floor, and he looked like he couldn't wait any longer.

Link looked up in the direction of the cave entrance from time to time, his brows slightly furrowed.

Well, he was naturally not worried about his father's safety. With the extraordinary strength of the Master Hunter, he would not necessarily get hurt even if he was hit by the fire dragon's breath.

He just wanted to have a meal.

If you continue grilling it, the meat will burn.

"From what I know about him, he should be back soon. But with his luck, he might catch something weird again."

Fiorina sat on the other side of the barbecue grill, the firelight shining on her focused face, adding a bit of warmth to her.

She placed a short Spinosaurus spine on her knees and gently scraped the spines with a small dagger in her hand. She stopped from time to time to check the sharpening effect to ensure that each spine met her standards.

Next to her, there were several sharpened thorn arrows, neatly arranged together. There were several blood grooves on the arrowheads, and the purple-red tips emitted a dangerous cold light under the campfire.

After completing the production of the arrowhead, Fiorina began to install the arrow body on the arrowhead.

The arrow shaft was made of knotwood, a wood that also grew near the shrine, but not in great abundance. When they were looking for a campsite, they came across one and cut down a few branches.

"Uh, weird stuff, how weird can it be?"

Link scratched his head, frowning slightly, his tone containing a hint of curiosity and confusion.

As he spoke, he flipped the barbecue which was gradually turning golden yellow.

The campfire crackled slightly and the aroma of meat filled the air, but his mind was clearly not entirely on that at the moment.

Thinking of the Green Water Dragon he caught last time, Link's expression couldn't help but become a little subtle.

Could his strange luck in fishing be inherited?

"Haha, who knows."

Fiorina chuckled and took out a few carefully selected emerald green feathers from the prop bag beside her.

These feathers come from the poisonous bird. They are light and tough, and are the best choice for making arrow feathers.

Fiorina carefully glued the feathers to the end of the thorn arrow, adjusting the angle to ensure that the arrow would remain stable during flight.

Her fingers flew deftly, and soon, one exquisite arrow after another appeared before her eyes.

These arrows not only look exquisite, but also have extremely strong penetration and accuracy, which will come in handy in the next hunting.

After finishing the last arrow, Fiorina nodded with satisfaction and put them into the quiver one by one.

"came back."

Fiorina didn't even raise her head, but her ears moved sharply, clearly catching the footsteps coming from outside the cave.

The attentive girl immediately noticed that the footsteps were much heavier than usual.

"This time the prey is not small..."

Fiorina narrowed her eyes slightly, and her mind began to outline various possibilities.

"Hey, I'm back, look what I caught."

Lieyan's heroic voice came from the cave entrance. With a steady sound of footsteps, he walked around the jagged rocks at the cave entrance and entered the sight of Fiorina and Link.

With the faint moonlight from the cave entrance, Link squinted his eyes slightly, his gaze fell on Lieyan's back, and saw what he was carrying.

That's a person.

The man's body lay limply on Lieyan's back, and he seemed to have completely lost consciousness. His hands hung down limply, swaying slightly with Lieyan's steps.

Her head was lowered, and her long hair fell down like a waterfall, covering her cheeks and making it impossible to see her face clearly.

The night wind gently ruffled her hair, making her look particularly desolate in the moonlight.
