Chapter 271: 132, Lin Mo live stream, exposes Chen Shanhe!!_5
 

Zhao Huixian also followed up, saying, “Yeah, rheumatism can predict the weather, but it’s not 100% accurate. Maybe we should take them off?”

Lin Mo glanced at the time; it was almost at the point when it usually began to rain.

Taking them off now and putting them on later might be too late. Thinking of his family’s health, he shook his head and said, “Believe me, it’s definitely going to rain. Hurry up, if we don’t rush to the beach now, we’ll lose the chance to get a good spot for foraging!”

Lin Mo was now the backbone of the family, and his words carried weight.

Since he was so insistent, no one else said anything; everyone followed Lin Mo towards the beach.

The walk wasn’t far,

and in less than 10 minutes, the family had already arrived at the sandy beach.

The beach was enchanting, with the sea breeze gently brushing everyone’s face, offering infinite comfort. In such an environment, the family felt great pleasure and forgot all their worries.

It was everyone’s first time foraging at sea, and without much experience, they searched the beach for a long time without finding any seafood.

Forget about clams and oysters, which they often saw on Douyin; they hardly found even small fish or crabs.

“What’s going on? Isn’t it easy to find stuff just by digging like they show on Douyin live streams?”

“Yeah, I see them taking a few steps and finding seafood, all sorts of fish and large razor clams; why can’t we find anything?”

“Uh… I found a bunch of sea greens, and I hear these are pretty tasty.”

“Those Douyin foraging videos are fake. If it were that easy to find seafood, then no one would go to work.”

“Is it because we came to the wrong place?”

After looking for a while, Lin Mo also felt that something wasn’t right.

On the way, he saw so many people heading to the beach. How come there were fewer people now that they had arrived?

Could it be that they had come to the wrong place?

Lin Mo looked around and noticed several older women knitting fishing nets by the seaside, clearly people who lived on the island regularly.

He had just walked over to them, and before he could speak, one of the ladies said very simply, “Young man, you won’t find much seafood on the beach. If you want to forage, you should go to the rocks on the east side. The tide just went out this morning, and you’ll find what you want there.”

“However, looking at the time now, I’m afraid even if you go there, you won’t get a good spot.”

“Foraging at sea is like fishing for a living; you have to get up early to catch any fish.”

Indeed, every profession has its own secrets.

Foraging, which seemed simple, actually required some skills.

However, Lin Mo and his family were just following the trend for fun, and they didn’t really care about how much they could catch.

“Thank you, aunty.”

Lin Mo thanked the net-weaving lady and then turned to his family, shouting, “Let’s go, we came to the wrong place. There’s seafood over by the rocks!”

After speaking,

he led his family excitedly toward the distant rocks, and as they walked, the crowd around them grew.

Looking at the buckets they carried, almost all of them had a significant catch, like small crabs, little sea snails, and miniature octopuses.

They had finally come to the right place.

Yet,

as the family helped each other toward the rocks, facing a dense crowd of people, they were all dumbfounded.

“Goodness, there are more people than fish here!”

“Ah… it’s all because we came to the wrong place, now it’s definitely hard to find a spot.”

“No choice, our country is like this, too many people! Let’s go, just find any spot. If we can catch some fish, good; if not, never mind.”

“Right, we came just to join the fun, after all!”

The rocky area was slippery, and the family couldn’t find a good spot. They could only pick over spots others had rummaged through and search them a second time.

They did find some leftovers, but they were all unwanted small fish and shrimp.

Forget about eating them; one would worry they’d get stuck in their teeth.

Time passed by slowly, and the sun had fully risen, the temperature also gradually increasing.

Walking was already tiring, and combined with the whole family wearing non-breathable raincoats, they were all sweating profusely.

“Phew…” Xu Qin wiped her sweat and looked up at the blazing sun above, saying, “Son, it’s too hot, let’s let everyone take off their raincoats, okay?”

Her suggestion was met with immediate agreement from the others.

“Yes, son, it’s really hot. Wearing raincoats, we might get heatstroke soon.”

“Daddy, Mumu is hot too.”

“Brother, I think it probably won’t rain. Rheumatism isn’t always accurate.”

“Husband, I also feel quite hot. If it really doesn’t work, let’s take them off for now and put them back on later if needed.”

People around them stared at the family as if they were looking at fools.

It was as if they were silently saying, “Wearing such thick raincoats on a sunny day, they must be crazy.”

However,

just as Lin Mo was about to speak, a thick dark cloud drifted over from the horizon.

Crack!

Following that, a peal of thunder sounded, and soon after, raindrops started falling.

The family’s expressions suddenly became very peculiar.

At the same time, the dense crowd foraging on the rocks started to panic.

“Damn it, what’s going on?”

“Wasn’t it supposed to be clear today? How come it started raining out of nowhere?”

“It was sunny just a moment ago!”

“What is this, the fishing was just getting good, this is just causing trouble!”

“Husband, let’s hurry, my makeup isn’t waterproof!”

“So annoying…”

“A sunny foraging day is the hardest to come by!”

Apart from a few who were determined and not afraid to get wet, most of the tourists started running towards the direction of the hotel with their buckets as soon as they realized it was raining.
