Chapter 735: Chapter 307: The Big Carp Gate Plank_3

"Hmm, they are indeed called Seven-star Knife Fish. A very small portion of these can be found domestically as well, mainly imported as ornamental fish and later released after being discarded. Their meat is mushy and full of bones, similar to the freshwater bream, not tasty at all."

The female guide knew quite a bit about the Seven-star Knife Fish, explaining a statement, even understanding its edibility.

"Similar to the freshwater bream...."

Without a second thought, Lin Yang removed the fish hook from the fish’s mouth and then threw the fish back into the river.

"Whoosh~"

Another cast of the fishing hook was thrown accurately into the target water area, still dragging along the bottom.

"Eh?"

Before long, Lin Yang’s fishing reel felt a minor obstruction, then it started to have a bit of resistance as it turned.

He really had caught some small trash!

It was just unknown if it would be the magazine he imagined.

The little trash wasn’t heavy, and Lin Yang easily reeled in the fishing line.

Then....

"Holy moley!"

"Oh man, oh man!"

"Eeek!"

"Oh wow oh wow oh wow!"

This time what Lin Yang pulled up was even more shocking than the pistol from before.

It was actually a hand grenade....

Looking at this hand grenade, the people on the boat were not just shocked but were also a bit terrified.

Lin Yang was speechless too, damn it, even a hand grenade could be fished up!

Initially, he thought it was super lucky to fish up a magazine, but who expected this unlucky thing.

He immediately picked up a pair of scissors nearby and cut the fishing line straight away, and with a splash, the hand grenade fell into the river and sank to the bottom.

Though it’s unknown how long this hand grenade had been in the river, it probably wouldn’t explode anymore, but he couldn’t take the risk.

Who knew what accidents could happen? For safety’s sake, it was better to stay far from it, avoiding touching it if possible.

"Guide, let’s ask the uncle to move to another spot. This place is too dangerous, there are even hand grenades."

Seeing Lin Yang fish up a hand grenade, the guide was also startled and quickly talked to the boatman, who looked very serious, promptly started the engine, and made a quick getaway.

As for that hand grenade, it could stay in the river for now. Perhaps they would wait for the boatman to call the police and let the professionals handle it. But that was no longer a matter for Lin Yang and the others.

The fishing boat started moving and only stopped two or three kilometers away at another river mouth.

"This is really, the world is full of wonders!"

"It’s alright, they were just some armaments, I even... cough cough."

Lin Yang was about to mention some of his glorious history but suddenly remembered that it seemed inappropriate to talk about such things in front of the two women, and he abruptly stopped.

"Even what?"

Yue’er was curious about the words he hadn’t finished.

"Ahahaha, just some weird stuff, like pots, pans, ladles, bicycles, I used to fish them up back in the day too!"

....

"I was already startled when I fished up that pistol, but to even find a hand grenade, that’s quite scary. Maybe we should stop fishing?"

Although today’s fishing trip was planned, from what they had caught, there were more scares than anything.

Those two things, a careless moment could be life-threatening.

Lin Yang thought that fishing could be done anytime, but there was no need to fish in such a dangerous place. Who knew if the next cast might bring up something that would explode before even being pulled in?

Although this possibility was incredibly slim, it was still real, haven’t the pistol and the hand grenade been fished up?

"Master Lin, no worries, the area we were in just now was close to Myanmar, and it’s quite chaotic there; it’s natural that some mess could be there. Now we have moved a bit towards Thailand, surely we won’t fish up those things again!"

The female guide was afraid of being blamed for not organizing properly, so she quickly explained.

"That’s true...."

Lin Yang hadn’t thought that much.

Things like pistols and hand grenades being fished up by a rod were an extremely low probability event; fishing them up twice in one day was indeed unprecedented.

"It’s about time, let’s go have lunch before we continue fishing."

Seeing that it was about time, Lin Yang suggested they appease their stomachs first before continuing the battle. After the recent scares, they needed to calm down.

"Sounds reasonable."

With unanimous agreement, the boatman started the fishing boat and headed to shore.

The fish they had caught earlier were not small, but since they had no value, they were just released. However, the few prawns Yue’er caught looked good, so they took them to shore for a midday meal.

After having lunch together, everyone returned to the hotel to rest, agreeing to continue fishing at 2 pm.

The freshwater fish in this foreign land were quite sizable, and Lin Yang and his companions were quite interested.

After the rest, they boarded the boat again and went out to continue fishing.

This time, the fishing boat didn’t head toward the tri-border area’s waters, instead moving a distance in the direction of the river towards Thailand and Laos, then stopped at a river mouth.

Away from Myanmar, they should not be catching any military armaments like pistols and hand grenades, right?

During the noon rest, Lin Yang had briefly checked some information. There were quite a few big freshwater fish in the Mekong River, and he was very much looking forward to the afternoon’s fishing.

After baiting the hook, he gently swung the fishing rod, casting it out.

In such a large river, Lin Yang had all sorts of buffs to increase his chances of a catch.

And soon, his fishing rod started to show some activity, pulling lightly but consistently.

From the force, it seemed to be a small one.

Soon, Lin Yang reeled in the fishing line.

"Successfully caught one Giant Freshwater Prawn...."

A prawn longer than his palm, probably weighing about a pound.

It tasted good, so he put it in the live fish tank.

After casually throwing the bait into the river, Lin Yang continued fishing.
