Chapter 3: I Can Save Him
Shenxing Lake is located in the eastern part of the Baifeng Sect, one of the important water sources of the sea estuary thousands of miles away.
Wearing a hat and a coarse cloth peasant clothes, Li Ke walked down the rented Xianyun car with a full pair of fishing tackle in his hand, and walked towards the old and young who had already been fishing by the lake.
The old man has been sitting by the lake for 50 years and has been fishing motionless.
The other young man was Cao Zhen, the peak master of the Four Treasure Peaks, the penultimate peak in the Hundred Peaks Sect.
This person inherited the position of the deceased Master Peak Master a few years ago, and suddenly appeared here more than two months ago.
For Cao Zhen, when Li Ke first met him by the lake, he thought that the other party wanted to use fishing methods to get close to him.
It's not that she's tall, but as the four masters of Baifeng, the first day of Vermilion Bird Peak, and she who is a fairy in other people's mouths, she has often encountered in recent years. In the entire Hundred Peaks Sect, there are not a hundred but eighty people who have used this method.
Therefore, Li Ke initially directly ignored Cao Zhen's existence.
It wasn't until one time, when Cao Zhen answered a question from Beiyan, a disciple who was following her, that she had a real impression of this unknown sect monk for the first time.
That day, the question asked by the teenage Beiyan was asking the old man next to him about fishing.
'Master's old uncle's hook is straight, should I tell him that the hook has to be bent to catch a fish?' ’
Cao Zhen, who was bored, replied casually: "The old uncle is fishing for dragons, don't disturb the old uncle"
Rike knew that this old man, who had been sitting by the Meteorite Lake for fifty years, and his whole body was as immobile as a stone sculpture, was 'fishing for dragons', and he still heard about it from his master.
According to the Vermilion Bird Peak Peak Master, one of the five peaks of the Hundred Peaks Sect, the entire Hundred Peaks Sect knew that the old man was fishing for dragons, and there would be no more than ten people.
Li Ke knew that the ten people that the master said knew herself, and it was definitely not the person in front of her who she didn't know, so she made a special inquiry.
As a result, after some inquiry, she was very surprised.
Cao Zhen, the master of the Four Treasures Peak, the master of the Hundred Peaks Sect, has low talent, poor strength, and pedantic personality, and only knows that he relies on the monthly money issued by the sect to barely survive with the disciples in the peak.
Two months ago, there was a quarrel with Xingyao Peak, which ranked the ninety-fifth peak, and the two sides agreed to fight three months later, for which Xingyao Peak bet on the third-grade magma Lingzhi, and the peak master of the Four Treasures Peak also bet on the three-grade Lingtian, the treasure of Zhenfeng.
Fools can see that it was Xingyao Peak who was hindering the rules of the sect and deliberately found fault and wanted to win that piece of the third-grade spiritual field, so that they could plant the magma lingzhi that they had recently obtained but did not have the corresponding spiritual field.
As a result, this Cao Zhen was stunned and didn't see it, but went to retreat to practice, and after half a month, he went into a coma for two days, and then woke up as if he saw through Hongchen and was not obsessed with winning or losing, or maybe he accepted his fate and began to fish in this Falling Star Lake every day.
Li Ke later considered that this Cao Zhen wanted to deliberately approach the lake by fishing, like a stone sculpture, did not move for fifty years, and always maintained a fishing posture.
As a result, I got along and found that Cao Zhen didn't mean that at all, it was just simple fishing.
After getting along silently for more than two months, Li Ke knew that Cao Zhen did not have the strength to win the gambling contract, but still went to the Shifang Casino in the peak to buy Cao Zhen's five hundred taels of spirit stones and won.
Now seeing that Cao Zhen is still so unhurried, and the pace of life is very similar to that of the official who is retired among mortals, she wonders if her five hundred taels of spirit stones have been lost.
Rika went to her fishing position by the lake, took out her small fishing bench from her bracelet, and took out her fishing rod to prepare to throw the rod to fish.
"Don't get off the pole yet, wait for me later. ”
Cao Zhen was wearing a coat and a hat and holding a fishing rod, yawning lazily, staring at the fish float floating on the water with a slightly sloppy look, and raised his hand to block it.
Li Ke didn't expect that after two months of silent tacit understanding with Cao Zhen, the first thing the other party said to him was actually this.
According to the tacit understanding between the two in the past, when Pear Ke started fishing, Cao Zhen would close the rod tacitly in advance.
Today, this tacit understanding has been broken......
"Beauty, wait a minute, wait a minute. Cao Zhen stared at the fish drift and cheered up, and casually explained to the pear ke beside him, "The fish I want to catch is about to be hooked, if there is a second hook in the same water, the colorful phoenix tail will not bite the hook, you wait for me." If the fish are scared away this time, I will have to wait for another two months......"
Cao Zhen's voice did not fall, and the fish drift fell down lightly a few times, and suddenly the vertical force sank to the bottom of the water!
Yi Ersan's eyes, which had never had much energy, suddenly lit up, and the fishing rod in his hand was quickly lifted, and the golden scales of his whole body were about a foot long, and only the fish with a colorful tail was dragged out of the water.
'Colorful phoenix tail?'
Li Ke watched Yi Ersan's joyful busyness, and became more and more suspicious in his heart, this person was really fishing for the colorful phoenix tails, and the five hundred taels of spirit stones were really lost......
Colorful anchovies are indeed rare, but their only effect is that they can remove the smell and improve the freshness when cooked with other fish.
Li Ke is very sure that Cao Zhen has been fishing for more than two months, just for this colorful phoenix.
But the more sure she is, the more Cao Zhen's purpose is, the more she can't understand the other party, and at the critical moment when she is approaching the fighting method, she is just to satisfy her oral desire?
With the moment the colorful phoenix tail came out of the water, the old fisherman sitting by the lake like a stone sculpture, the fishing line on the fishing rod in his hand set off a ripple in the water that is difficult for ordinary people to detect.
Cao Zhen didn't care about the puzzled eyes cast by Li Ke around him, he had been working here every day for two months, waiting for this moment!
Cao Zhen happily packed up his fishing tackle and prepared to go back to alchemy to greatly improve his cultivation, but found that the road in front of him was blocked by a big black cat.
"Forgot about you. Cao Zhen took out a fish from the basket in a good mood and gave it to the pet that Rik would take with him every time he fished, and then glanced at Rikke who was methodically starting to fish.
"Leopard carp, try four earthworms as bait primers. Cao Zhen told the record of the leopard-headed carp in the Dadong Sutra.
Li Ke was originally patiently fishing, but when he heard the other party suddenly speak, he was also a little surprised, and then he had doubts about the four-headed earthworm, he had never heard that the earthworm had four heads, could it be a special monster? Why is it not recorded in the "Ten Thousand Demon Spectrum".
Cao Zhen found the doubt in Li Ke's eyes, made a cut action out of thin air with the palm of his hand, dropped the sentence 'cut it', and sped up his pace to catch the Xianyun car of Line 7 of the Baifeng Sect, and wanted to return to Sibaofeng, but the Xianyun car of Line 7 was transferred to Line 3, and it took half an hour to get home.
If you can't catch up with this Xianyun car, you will have to wait another hour before the next one.
Rike pondered for a moment before she realized that the so-called four-headed earthworm is to cut off an earthworm, and when its wound recovers, it is equivalent to having four heads, and it turns out that this is a four-headed earthworm.
