The Heiress Strikes Back

Chapter 765: Finding Food

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Everyone only ate some wild fruits for breakfast and only these small fruits for lunch. They needed to replenish some other food for dinner. Otherwise, if they did not have enough nutrition, their physical abilities would begin to decrease.

“Our main mission now is to find edible plants, but we still have to ensure that we consume enough to have sufficient energy. Otherwise, there will be problems over time,” Sharon said.

As everyone walked, they searched for food and discovered a small river. When they rested by the river, Dan suddenly realized that there were fish in the river, and they were not small.

“Let’s catch some fish and roast them for dinner,” Shane suggested.

Everyone agreed, but they had tried using a harpoon to fish before. It was very difficult.

The fish they caught last time were relatively small. This time, as these fish were relatively big, the method of knocking the rock to shock the fish should not be feasible.

Sharon pondered for a while and suddenly had an idea. She said, “I remember that in the documentary I watched previously, there’s a method of fishing that uses rocks as a trap to trap the fish.”

“How do we do it?” Melinda asked.

“I have to think about that again.” Sharon frowned and pondered.

She picked up a small stone by the river and threw it into the water. With a crisp and pleasant sound, the small stone stirred up a small splash in the water, causing circular ripples.

There were many tributaries in this river, so each tributary naturally differed in width. Some rivers had very narrow openings.

“Got it. We can use big rocks to block those narrow rivers. This way, the fish that flow down from upstream won’t be able to escape.” Sharon’s tone was filled with excitement. This method might work.

“That’s a good idea,” Dan said.

The few of them moved the stones back and forth a few times, and the narrow mouth of the river was quickly blocked. The river water began to rise under the obstruction of the stones. Sharon opened another part of the blocked stone, leaving an outlet. She then pressed down the net that she had used to catch fish previously with a stone and placed it at the outlet.

“Let’s find other plants first and come back in the evening to see the results,” Sharon said.

She washed her hands in the river. The trap was set. All she had to do was wait for the fish to end up in the net themselves.

Sharon wasn’t sure if this fishing trap could catch the fish, but she would her best.

Shane and Dan weren’t as patient and nice as Sharon. The two of them were another river, throwing rocks at the fish and hitting the fish with sticks.

Because it was the dry season, the river was relatively shallow, and because river was relatively clear, fish could be clearly seen swimming.

For people who only ate wild fruits for breakfast and lunch, seeing fish was simply a delicacy.

Dan tried to catch the fish with his bare hands, but the fish swam too quick and disappeared in the blink of an eye. His hand had clearly touched the fisl body just now, but it still escaped. Dan was so angry that he cursed.

The two boys caught fish in the water barefooted. After trying to catch the f for a while, their feet hurt a lot and they couldn’t take it anymore. The rock the river were more painful to their feet.

Just as Shane was about to give up, Dan suddenly shouted excitedly, “I caug it!! I caught it!”

Dan couldn’t stop smiling. Only those who had experienced it would understand this feeling. It was a joy that couldn’t be accurately expressed words. It was the feeling of seeing hope again after trying his best and feeli:

hopeless.

“That’s great! Dan, you’re too awesome! What kind of gods are my teammates?! We have meat to eat again today,” Melinda praised excitedly.

Dan was a little embarrassed by the praise. His face was a little red as he hurriedly said, “It’s also thanks to Shane. The two of us hit the fish with wooden sticks and rocks. This fish must have been knocked unconscious by one of us. Its reaction was a little slow, so I caught it.”

“It’s mainly because you’re good. Of course, the two of us cooperated well,” Shane said with a smile.

Everyone was immersed in the excitement and joy of catching the first fish today. The fish in Dan’s hand suddenly quivered and almost ran away. Fortunately, Dan caught it again.

Dan looked at the fish in his hand. The joy in his heart was indescribable. He said to the fish, “I almost let you escape.”

Shane also said, “This fish is too slippery. Don’t let it escape.”

Dan suddenly looked at the fish in his hand affectionately and kissed it gently.

Then, he imitated a domineering President’s tone and said to it, “From now on, you’re mine. You’re my fish. Without my permission, don’t even think about leaving me.”

[Hahaha!]

[The fish said: Oh, I must thank you so much..]
