Reborn as a Superpower Girl in the 80s

Chapter 48: Chapter 48 Spatial Well Water Attracts Fish Chapter 48: Chapter 48 Spatial Well Water Attracts Fish After a few times, those looking for trouble dared not gossip anymore. Hard work was the undeniable truth. However, Luo Qiao kept her actions within reasonable limits, leaving about half an hour earlier, which was acceptable. Leaving any earlier would’ve made her seem out of place with the rest.

The village was not as strict as it had been in past years, and there were women who finished their tasks early, earning labor points before heading home. Therefore, Luo Qiao didn’t stand out too much.

Thanks to the Spatial Well Water and her daily exercises, and having been well-fed recently, her body was in good condition. But since she was still young, she needed to take it easy. After all, she only committed to seven labor points of work per day—no more.

She acted this way to let the villagers know she could support herself. Having a good reputation always made things more convenient.

After returning her tools to the collective, she headed for Daqing Mountain with her basket on her back.

Midway up the mountain, she gathered plenty of fresh shepherd’s purse and circled around before hitting a wild chicken with a stone. It was a trip well worth her time.

Seeing that it was getting late, she decided not to venture further in. Glancing at the depths of Daqing Mountain, she thought about when the collective would next have a day off. This way, she also saved herself the trouble of asking the captain for leave.

Not far ahead, something stirred. Treading lightly, Luo Qiao approached and discovered two rabbits. She carefully set her basket down, but it still made a sound.

The rabbits were very alert, so it took quite an effort for her to catch one. If she hadn’t been so agile, she probably wouldn’t have caught even that one—turns out it was a female.

After scanning the area and seeing no one around, she cautiously placed the rabbit into her basket before storing it in her space. Being careful was always best.

Passing by a pool, Luo Qiao had a sudden idea to see if the Spatial Well Water could attract fish. If it worked, she could make some fish bait and have a legitimate reason to eat fish in the future.

People in the village said that this pool had fish too, but they were cunning, even harder to catch than those in the big river. Luo Qiao thought that if she could catch a few, she might be able to put them in the pond in her space.

After making sure no one was around, she dipped her hand in the pool, controlling a bit of Well Water to flow from her fingers, but the pool showed no reaction.

It seemed the water from her space was not that miraculous after all, which left her slightly disappointed. Sighing, she prepared to stand up and head downhill back home.

Just as she turned and bent to pick up her basket, she caught a shadow moving in the depths of the pool out of the corner of her eye. Luo Qiao watched for a moment before she realized her current posture.

She quickly straightened up and turned back to the pool to find that the shadow was a school of fish. My God, this was terrifying. Anyone with a fear of dense patterns would have fainted on the spot.

It took Luo Qiao a while to collect herself. She hurried to the edge of the pool and found a safe spot to attract the fish closer, making it easier to gather them into her space.

Regardless if they were big or small fish, she was actually quite frightened at the thought of them biting her, for her hand was still in the water.

She feared someone witnessing this unscientific sight, which could cause unnecessary trouble.

So, she quickly transferred a batch of fish to the pond in her space. Luo Qiao then withdrew her hand, tossing a few fish onto the shore before preparing to stop.

Indeed, she heard someone coming down the mountain, but she dared not call them over. The villagers had said the pool was very deep, and as she saw most of the fish starting to disperse, grabbing more would require getting into the water.
