I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier Chapter 28: Professional Guy

Moreover, whether it’s fishing equipnt or the theory of basic skills, both are extrely professional...

Comparatively, Teacher Ye is like a professional athlete, while my own grandpa is more like a cheerleader.

I’m guessing today is going to be a busy day...

As ti passed, the news of Ye Chen starting his broadcast attracted countless netizens.

Nurous people flocked into Ye Chen’s live stream room.

At this mont, the majority of the audience in the live stream room knew about the strear catching a corpse yesterday.

These new fans weren’t like Ye Chen’s old fans who know about his fishing skills.

Seeing Ye Chen’s recent maneuvers and his statents, everyone was shocked.

"OMG, is this strear really that professional, could he actually be a professional fishing athlete?"

"Yeah, I think what he said was really professional, totally legit insights!"

"Taking notes, taking notes, I’ve already jotted down the strear’s presentation!"

"Look at that old man next to him, compared to the strear, the difference is too huge, could this be the difference between professional and amateur?"

"Strear, you might want to tone it down a bit, the old n fishing next to you are having a hard ti, don’t go too far!"

...

Seeing the comnts in the chat, so of Ye Chen’s old fans were already laughing their stomachs off.

Since the beginning of Ye Chen’s broadcast, he has always been unbeatable in theory.

Terms, jargon, experience, he sounds totally professional, but when it cos to actual fishing, he can’t catch a single live fish.

"Dying of laughter, LOL, soone actually called the strear a professional fishing athlete?"

"Actually, the strear is really professional, just as a professional air force commander!"

"I think Teacher Ye should join a fishing team, since whatever he fishes for, be it lousy fish or corpses, he always catches sothing accurate!"

"So much bait? 500 kilograms? Downstream better watch out, don’t think it’s just flood discharge, haha!"

"I really can’t handle this, do these people really not know that Teacher Ye never catches any fish?"

...

Ye Chen didn’t pay attention to the mockery in the live stream room.

He began preparing the bait.

The bait preparation process was quite cumberso, involving adjustnt of the bait first, then bait making and mixing.

In simple terms, it involves using previously determined amounts of water, pouring the prepared powdered bait into the water, and then kneading it into a lump using various thods.

Different types of powdered baits have different flavors and effects.

At this mont, the audience in the live stream room and Liao Xuexue had their eyes opened wide again!

They saw Ye Chen take out a half-ter diater iron basin, first letting Liao Xuexue pour several buckets of water into it.

Then he took out various kinds, colors, and brands of powdered baits and poured them in.

Liao Xuexue counted and realized that Teacher Ye poured more than twenty bags of powdered bait into the iron basin.

It seems that Teacher Ye was making adjustnts based on the weight of the powdered baits.

How to say this...

Professional, too professional!

Finally, with Ye Chen’s vigorous stirring, those twenty-sothing bags of powdered bait turned into a brown viscous paste.

At that mont, a fellow angler reminded Ye Chen, saying, "Teacher Ye, why aren’t you performing rituals today?"

Ye Chen’s rise to fa last night was mainly because a video of him performing rituals on the riverside was leaked.

Many believe that the reason he could catch a corpse was because he perford rituals on the riverside, blessing the fishing rod.

That’s why!

Liao Xuexue quietly sat aside, curiously watching the "Fishing Master."

The "Fishing Master" awkwardly coughed and said, "Ahem... what procedure?"

"But I am indeed planning to bless my fishing rod. Today, I am determined to catch a big fish."

"Moreover, my newly purchased gear really needs a blessing!"

The other fishern nearby heard Ye Chen say this and turned their attention to him.

Ye Chen was holding a brand-new fishing rod that he had just bought.

He first lit so yellow paper beside him, then lit a few sticks of incense.

Holding these sticks of incense, Ye Chen began to walk in strange steps on the spot.

At the sa ti, Ye Chen muttered under his breath, "Worshiping the sky above, the earth below..."

"Lately at Seyves Reservoir, scatter the small fish, hurry the big fish..."

"Fish in the water, heed my command, today I only seek to catch a thousand-pounder..."

When he finished, Ye Chen put his palms together, dramatically bowed towards the water of the reservoir, and said, "The auspicious ti has arrived, let the fishing begin today, may it be extrely auspicious, cast the rod, start fishing!"

Next to Ye Chen, those fishern near him, who had urns by their feet, imitated Ye Chen’s actions, lighting the yellow paper and incense with a devout expression, paying homage to the water of the reservoir.

"The auspicious ti has arrived, let the fishing begin today, may it be extrely auspicious, cast the rod, start fishing!"

...

Liao Xuexue was dumbfounded.

Could this be what her grandfather told her about: that fishing also involves mysticism?

She was actually a history major.

So, for these traditional cultures, she couldn’t say she didn’t believe them at all, but she still held so reverence in her heart.

Things that couldn’t be explained by science were called mysticism until they were popularized by science.

And a re fisherman, being so knowledgeable about these things, was really... too professional!

anwhile, the viewers in the live stream room couldn’t help but admire Ye Chen.

All they wanted to say was, "Wow, the sparrow pecking at the cow’s butt – incredibly aweso!!!"

Then, Ye Chen took out the fishing rod he had just blessed, started to tie the line and adjust the float.

While busily working with his hands, he didn’t forget to shout over to her, "Hey, little girl, do you know how to bait a spot?"

Poor Liao Xuexue just rolled her eyes at him and nodded.

But the next second, she shook her head.

Had it been before when asked if she knew how to bait a spot, she would definitely say she knew.

Isn’t it just taking bait and throwing it into the distant water?

That’s why she initially nodded.

But seeing how extrely professional Teacher Ye’s approach was, Liao Xuexue guessed that Teacher Ye’s thod might be different from what she had known.

So, she shook her head.

Seeing this, Ye Chen imdiately took out a big spoon.

A steel spoon larger than Liao Xuexue’s palm.

After handing the steel spoon to Liao Xuexue, Ye Chen opened several bags of specially-made bait and presented them to her, "About thirty ters ahead, scoop a spoonful, and throw it there."

"Throw another every half a minute, and if you get tired, rest a little while."

"Also... today I’m planning to catch big fish, did you see the net on the side?"

"When I catch a big fish later, just be ready to catch it with the net."

"Understand?"

Just as Liao Xuexue was about to respond, she rembered her grandfather’s advice not to talk too much with this guy.
