I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier
Chapter 143: Using Piglets to Bait the Nest

Chapter 143: Chapter 143: Using Piglets to Bait the Nest

"If we were to step in, I’m afraid we would be laughed to death!"

Zhou Tao pondered for a moment, then said, "Old Ju, just relax, although this kid has become a bit unserious..."

"But it doesn’t stop him from really being able to fish the giant python out of the water!"

Indeed.

Ye Chen’s few rhythmless mnemonics did indeed give people a strange feeling.

Outside the caution line, the originally serious crowd watching Ye Chen perform the "sacrifice" couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter.

Especially those fishing folks on the scene, as well as Ye Chen’s fans.

Indeed...

These mnemonics really don’t rhyme at all!

Of course, there were some who were holding their bellies with laughter.

At this moment, many people shared Wang Lindong’s skepticism and began to doubt the credibility of this so-called "master" angler.

The one who felt this the most was Cui Ruogou, hanging over the water and treated as the "sacrifice."

It was these awkward incantations that had dissipated much of the fear in his heart.

If these words counted as an incantation, then Cui Ruogou would dare to jump into the water right now!

At this point, Cui Ruogou had completely determined that this damn Ye Chen knew nothing about Mystical Fishing.

Moreover, he had no confidence whatsoever that he could fish the giant python out of the water!

This damn guy was doing this entirely as revenge, to scare him.

Thinking this, Cui Ruogou couldn’t bother to waste any more words with Ye Chen at this moment.

Hanging above the lake, he now had a look of amusement, watching Ye Chen with mocking eyes.

As long as he himself didn’t panic today, in the end, the one who would lose face would definitely be Ye Chen who couldn’t fish out the giant python.

...

Meanwhile, Ye Chen on the shore had also realized this issue.

There was no helping it, he hadn’t taken the postgraduate entrance exam, so naturally, he didn’t have the ability to spin smooth rhymes off the top of his head.

So, he cleared his throat, reeled in his fishing rod, and began to form hand seals.

He looked at the lake and spoke.

"Dan Zhu Mouth God, expel the filth and clear the miasma."

"Tongue God upholding order, communicate orders to nourish the spirit."

"Luo Qianchi God, Repel the Evil and Guard the True."

"Throat God fierce as a tiger, Qi God Leading Saliva."

"Heart God alights the essence, Order me to connect with the True."

"Refining God Refining Liquid, Dao Qi Eternal."

"Supreme Laojun, hurry, as if by decree!"

"Start fishing!"

"Prepare the nest!"

Just as Ye Chen finished speaking, to the incredulous glances of the crowd.

With a few pig squeals, a truck stopped outside the artificial lake’s caution line.

Then, several neighborhood security guards drove down a few pigs from the truck!

The pigs were ordinary pigs, the same kind used for meat in the vegetable markets!

However, the pigs were not large in size.

After driving the pigs down from the truck, the security guards, working in groups, directly threw three pigs into the water.

And the point where these pigs landed was right below Cui Ruogou!

Surprisingly.

These few pigs did not drown immediately after falling into the water; instead, they leisurely started swimming in the artificial lake.

At this moment, Wang Lindong, who previously thought that Ye Chen had no chance of catching the giant python, couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.

He smacked his lips.

"This kid, he really has something."

"Using lively jumping pigs as bait?"

"Why didn’t they think of using this method before?"

"This is no longer Mystical Fishing, but scientific fishing, no... scientific python hunting!"

Zhou Tao, who was by the side, was also somewhat surprised to see this scene.

Indeed, the way Ye Chen had the community security guards release three live pigs into the artificial lake was something he never expected.

But even more surprising to Zhou Tao were the words Wang Lindong said to him.

Then, Zhou Tao turned around and asked, "Chrysanthemum Chief... didn’t you say earlier that Ye Chen was unreliable and that the giant python couldn’t be caught today?"

Wang Lindong curled his lips dismissively: "What I meant was, this kid’s talk of Mystical Fishing is probably just to hoodwink people."

"But now, don’t you understand?"

Hearing these words, Zhou Tao was confused and said, "My Chrysanthemum Chief, stop speaking in riddles and just tell me."

Wang Lindong pointed to the three piglets that the security guards had thrown into the lake and said: "I know, you were also an angler before, you should know what ’baiting’ is, right?"

Although Zhou Tao did not know why Wang Lindong suddenly brought this up, he still nodded.

"Of course, I know."

"Baiting, in the process of angling, is about concentrating bait in a certain area of the water."

"However, due to the different species of fish, they have different habits, so there is no fixed method for baiting when fishing."

"This requires the angler to make different adjustments according to the different fish species."

"Right," Wang Lindong said with a smile: "Using bait that fish like can attract fish."

"If we put something in the water that pythons like to eat, couldn’t it attract pythons?"

"This animal expert said, this size of Water Python, they still prefer to prey on animals on land."

"So throwing piglets into the artificial lake, wouldn’t that attract the pythons?"

"Didn’t all those capture teams fail to find the pythons exactly because they overlooked this point?"

Hearing this, Zhou Tao raised his eyebrows.

Indeed, it was exactly so.

Regarding the data on the giant python in the water, Zhou Tao had also researched quite a bit.

This Water Python liked to eat many things, including mammals, birds, rodents, reptiles, etc.

And those wild pigs living in the wild are especially within what the python likes to eat.

Wild pigs are hard to find, but aren’t domestic pigs everywhere?

Moreover, didn’t the giant python appear for the second time on the shore of the artificial lake after having eaten a large pet dog?

So with these three piglets, there really is a possibility of luring the giant python out of the artificial lake.

It seemed that no one had paid attention to this principle of understanding animal behavior at the beginning.

But soon, Zhou Tao understood the issue.

The capture team was thinking about how to find the python and then use tools to haul it out.

How could they use the angler’s baiting mentality to lure out the python?

Just as Zhou Tao was pondering in his mind,

Wang Lindong suddenly said, "This Ye Chen, he indeed has some ideas."

"Pigs, especially piglets, are basically natural swimmers, just like dogs."

"However, clearly, these piglets are in the water for the first time, so they are very frightened and instinctively start swimming towards the shore after being thrown into the water."

"As long as these piglets swim back to the shore, the security guards on the shore can use sticks to drive the piglets back into the water."

"In this way, repeated, these three piglets will stay active in this area of the artificial lake."
