Chapter 5 Almost Can't Get Out

In fact, I couldn't take even this fish with me unless I was willing to return to the original world naked. There was no vessel to hold the fish. When I put on my tank top and shorts, the fish had already returned to the water.

It's a pity to sigh in despair. It's all because I didn't make enough preparations and was too lazy to bring in a bucket.

After rubbing the wart a few times, I returned to reality, still lying on the bed. I quietly got up, found a big plastic bucket, and specially brushed it in the sink, with the mentality of giving it a try to see if I could bring it with me.

into space.

I held the bucket in my left hand and held it tightly, and rubbed the knot with my right middle finger. Fortunately, I successfully arrived at the island in an alien space as I imagined.

The first thing that surprised me was the change of the island. It has grown again, now it is almost 4 square meters. The island is getting bigger! This makes me feel safer. I looked at the small stone slab specifically, and it is now 4 centimeters above the water.

I guess the island is either growing upwards or the water is falling.

No matter what, if you love it, it will grow, if you love it, it will fall! The current task is to catch fish. I stripped naked and jumped into the water. In a short time, I caught a bucket full. About 10 fish, estimated to be thirty or forty pounds.

, enough for everyone to have a meal.

After getting dressed, I clutched the handle of the bucket carefully, fearing that if I couldn't hold it firmly when I returned to the real world, the fish would end up here.

Rub the wart with your right hand.

"Huh?"

I was still standing there holding the bucket, and did not return to reality.

I can't go back!

I'm confused!

Could it be said that the fish here can only be watched and eaten?

I rubbed the wart again, this time with great force, I wished I could break the skin.

The result was still the same, I was still standing on the island.

Damn it! Isn’t this a scam? It’s a waste of my time, and my idea of ​​letting everyone eat more fish is going to be in vain. I finally caught a bucket, and if I let them go, my work will be in vain. If not

If you keep them here, they will suffocate to death sooner or later.

well!

I sighed and looked at the bucket full of fish, feeling a little pity. I picked up the plastic bucket and wanted to release them, but suddenly I thought, maybe it was too heavy and the space force could not carry me out.

I put down the plastic bucket again, grabbed a fish, and decided to take one out first. At worst, I would come back a few more times.

The fish struggled violently in my hand, trying to get rid of it. I tightened the gills of the fish with my left hand and no matter how violently it shook, it could not change its fate.

Rub the wart with your right hand again.

Strangely enough, I was still disappointed and still standing on the island!

Are you not allowed to eat even a single fish? I reluctantly put the fish back into the bucket.

You come here happily, but you leave disappointed. It’s empty when you come and empty when you go. It seems that the things in this alien space do not belong to the outside world!

I want to go back and find a few plastic bags first, put the fish in them, and tie them to my body. As long as I can get out, the fish can also get out.

The reality made me despair. Even if I didn't hold a fish, I couldn't leave the island. The skin around the wart was so red that I almost broke it.

Something went wrong, I can't open the passage back to this space!

My mind is no longer on the fish, and whether I can return to the real world is the most important thing.

Frustrated, I sat down on the stone slab and sighed at my fate.

After feeling sorry for myself, I still have to solve the current problem.

What happened? I carefully thought back to what I did before, but I didn’t find anything different!

From a subjective point of view, I carried a bucket of fish, but the problem is that I can't get out without carrying a bucket of fish. This has nothing to do with the fish.

Objectively speaking, it is morning now, but I just made a round trip, so it should have nothing to do with time.

The fish bucket was placed one meter in front of me, and I re-observed the island at my feet.

The island has grown bigger.

Before, whenever I came in or out, I would always stand on the stone slab under my butt. Just now...just now I wasn't stepping on the stone slab, I was standing on the ground in front of me.

Maybe this stone slab is the key to entering and exiting the space!

Thinking of this, I quickly stood up, stood on the stone slab again, took a deep breath, and rubbed the wart.

Wow! It’s finally out!

I was still standing by the pool at the door of the tin house, holding a large red plastic bucket in my hand. The difference from before was that the bucket was filled with fish.

When I put the fish bucket in front of Master Gao, his eyes widened.

"Where did you get it? So much! I planned to go to the market to buy it after dinner, but you bought it first. Did Boss Yao ask you to go? He didn't tell me! He didn't ask him to buy so much.

Just get a few fish and eat two bites per person. There are only about 20 people eating. With so many fish, one fish is enough for two people. I won’t make other dishes for lunch."

While talking, he found a big basin and poured the fish into the basin. The fish was jumping happily. He added some water to the basin and the fish swam even more happily.

"Carp, grass carp, herring, oh! And mandarin fish! Did you buy this? Why are they so mixed?"

The different types of fish aroused Master Gao's doubts.

I quickly excused myself.

"Ah... ha! Master Gao, you don't have to worry about where this fish comes from. Just cook it for everyone. Even if it's my contribution to everyone. Everyone has worked hard, so I should contribute a little."

I was afraid that Master Gao would pester me, so I ran away quickly.

"Hey, hey! Xiao Chen, why are you leaving? It's time to eat!"

"Immediately! Come as soon as you go!"

My hands were full of fishy smell, so I had to wash them no matter what.

Han Xiaobai woke up and said that I got up earlier than him again today. After he also finished washing, we went to the kitchen to eat together.

Master Gao had a smile on his face and looked particularly enthusiastic today. He brought the porridge to the table and whispered in my ear:

"Aren't you going to add more work to uncle? The more fish you have, the more work you will do."

These words seemed to be blaming me, but looking at the smile in the corners of his eyes, I knew he didn't mean it that way.

“Those who are able work hard!”

I simply replied and buried myself in my porridge. I didn't want to start this topic with him, lest it attract Han Xiaobai's attention.

Fortunately, Han Xiaobai is not an inquisitive person, and his attention is on the steamed bun in his hand.

When I arrived at the construction site, I still arrived earlier than Master Wang. I didn't see him while eating, but now I found that he was in a good mood.

"Lao Gaotou is really nice. He said he was going to cook fish today and bought it early in the morning. Good guy, there's a big basin! There's a good meal for lunch!"

I made a vague hum, and without answering his words, I picked up the shovel and started working.

The atmosphere at lunch was more lively than usual. Everyone was praising the fish cooked by Master Gao. It was different from the fish they usually eat. It tasted particularly delicious. After one bite, I wanted to take two bites. It was clear that my belly was full, but I was still not satisfied.

, some people even specially filled a bowl of fish soup and drank it like that. Fortunately, Master Gao made it not salty.

Master Gao follows Master Gao's principle, when the quantity is small, make it salty to avoid not eating enough. Today there is a lot of fish, so add less salt.

People clamored to ask Master Gao when they could eat fish like this again, but they didn't seem to have enough.

"Then I have to ask Xiao Chen where he bought this fish, so that I can buy it for everyone!"

Master Gao's words brought the focus to me.

"Tell Master Gao where Xiao Chen bought it."

Someone has already asked me before Master Gao.

I quickly silenced everyone.

"If you all want to eat it, let Master Gao make it tomorrow. As for where you bought it, you don't have to worry about it."

"Okay! We will have fish tomorrow!"

My words attracted unanimous praise from everyone, and they all gave me a thumbs up.
Chapter completed!
