Chapter 39 -39 Teaching a Man to Fish

“Last night, these few… critters ran under the cart to steal food, and they were so engrossed that they didn’t notice I had woken up, so I knocked them out with pebbles,”

Bai Junjun said with her eyes wide open.

Anyhow, believe it or not… that was her excuse.

Bai Junjun actually captured three large martens! This was a huge shock to Old Uncle Qiu’s family; they couldn’t believe a little girl could outdo them… Just as everyone was struggling to accept this, Qiu San was the first to believe it.

Yesterday, Bai Junjun was catching fish in the same way, her accuracy even better than a soldier’s.

Considering that Bai Sasa was naturally strong, it didn’t seem so strange that her sister was a Divine Archer.

Once they accepted this, they quickly convinced themselves.

They stopped fussing about how Bai Junjun did it, and immersed themselves in the joy of their bounty.

This liveliness of the martens was a great thing; they didn’t have to worry about keeping the food fresh. They decided to raise them for now and figure out whether to butcher or sell them later.

Old Uncle Qiu happily loaded the martens onto the cart, and seeing the neatly tied vines on the martens, he didn’t forget to give Bai Junjun a thumbs up.

“Your craftsmanship is really good, look how neatly the ropes are tied.”

“Uh… thanks for the compliment,” Bai Junjun quietly accepted the praise.

When the three kids woke up and heard about Bai Junjun’s great achievement, they couldn’t help but rejoice.

Early in the morning, Xiao Shan and Bai Lingyu kept circling around the three martens.

Their elongated bodies and fluffy fur, looking like large rats or large rabbits, were both strange and endearing.

Old Uncle Qiu laughed when he saw them: “Be careful, don’t let them bite you.”

“We won’t!” the kids replied obediently.

While making breakfast, Madam Liu took the opportunity to sort out the clothes the siblings had changed out of.

But these clothes were really too ragged, so Madam Liu picked out the slightly better fabric and made each of the siblings a small hat with a hood.

This hat also had a piece of cloth to cover the face, which could hide their faces once tied.

Mainly because the siblings were too good-looking, Madam Liu felt it was always better to keep a low profile in troubled times.

Bai Junjun was already feeling her face was too conspicuous; when Madam Liu offered her the hat, she gladly put it on.

So, after breakfast and packing up their water, they continued on their journey, and before leaving, Bai Junjun even went to catch some more fish.

The men of the Qiu family, eager to witness the miracle, all went to watch.

Bai Junjun didn’t keep her skills a secret and directly taught these few novices her experience.

“The water is different from the land; you have to consider the 1.33 light refraction,” she said.

“???” Everyone looked confused.

“For example, where the fish appears to the naked eye, we temporarily call it 1, but you need to add an additional 0.33 for the phantom image, so its actual position is at 1.33, here,”

Bai Junjun stretched out her hand and drew in the air.

Old Uncle Qiu, who had never heard of this, looked bewildered: “Why?”

Bai Junjun’s brow twitched, how was she supposed to explain this physics knowledge to them?

A few words couldn’t make them understand, a deeper explanation would take too much time, and it seemed unnecessary.

Bai Junjun scratched her head and chose a middle-ground explanation.

“Water reflects light, what our eyes see is just an illusion, the actual position of the fish is not where it appears to be. So when spearing a fish, we can’t aim at the fish’s shadow; we need to accurately calculate its actual distance.

For instance, if we’re far from the fish, the spear should form a sharp angle with the fish as much as possible, then aim three fingers to the side of the phantom image.”
