Fu Xi's eyes grew brighter and brighter as he excitedly exclaimed, "I've got it! I've thought of something!"
Fu Xi immediately gathered his tribespeople, pooling the strength of the entire clan to weave a large, twisted vine net. With stones tied beneath it, a group waded into the river to drag the net along.
Splash! The big fishes fiercely collided within the net, and after only a short distance, it could no longer be pulled.
The Clan Leader excitedly shouted, "Lift the net!"
"Lift!"
"Lift it!"
...The big men pulling the net chanted in unison, straining to lift the net, and within it, heaps of big fish thrashed about, their scales gleaming white in the sunlight.
People on the shore were utterly astonished by this bountiful scene—such a multitude of big fish!
