Chapter 330: A dragon carp comes out of the water
Taking a leisurely walk in the middle of the night, Jiang Feng, who unexpectedly saw the scene of the carp jumping over the dragon gate, saw the father-in-law of the land, grinned, and squatted down next to the white-headed old man, no longer caring about the two tricks during the day.
Jiang Feng said with a relaxed expression: "Before the time has passed, how can you call it the middle of the night? On the contrary, it is you, the father-in-law of the land, why did you suddenly come to be interested in becoming a fisherman?"
"I'm catching fish, not fish. The father-in-law of the land said a very Zen answer.
Jiang Feng tilted his head and asked, "Are you fishing for me?" I don't have a 'willing person taking the bait' here......
The father-in-law of the land glanced at him, and said angrily: "What kind of fish are you kid, at most you are a shrimp." β
Jiang Feng laughed and continued to stare at the father-in-law of the land.
The old fisherman, who had thick eyebrows and white hair, looked back at him and asked, "What?
"I want to hear about it!"
Father-in-law shook his shoulders to make himself more comfortable leaning on the willow tree, looked at Jiang Feng, who was full of interest, pointed to another carp that happened to jump out of the lake, and said slowly:
"At the bottom of this mirror lake, there are several dragon carp, one or two of which have been dormant for hundreds of years. Young Master Ling Heng loved to mess around when he was young, and always said that he wanted to fish out two of them to make soup and drink, so the young lady made a bet with him, saying that if he could catch a tail, he would personally cook fish and dragon porridge for him to drink, and if he got fish and dragon spit out beads, he would also give it to him. β
"Then what happened later, did you catch it?" Jiang Feng asked.
The father-in-law of the land stroked his beard and smiled: "How can it! Young Master Ling Heng has been lazy since he was a child, he fished for three days and dried his nets for two days, and he has always been hot for three minutes, and there is little perseverance, and after only half an hour of fishing, he couldn't bear to throw away the fishing rod and ran to play." β
Jiang Feng laughed heartily, this result was also expected, he turned his head to look at the mirror lake in front of him, he was quite surprised in his heart, the Wenfu is really amazing, rich and rich, there are dragon carp in this ordinary small lake!
The carp leaps over the dragon gate and turns into a heavenly dragon!
The dragon carp is only one step away from the legendary Leaping Dragon Gate, which is not the carp out of the water as seen in front of you, but the real Leaping Sky Gate Dragon.
The dragon carp is rare in the world, it is hard to find, it can be described as rare, it is a rare spiritual object, it is also a rare delicacy, and it is the most delicious food in the world.
Not only that, after the dragon carp is more than 300 years old, it is a rare medicine, and if the monk gets it, it is enough to count the penance of Jiazi.
There are a few tails in the Yunxiao Palace, but they are strictly guarded by the elders on weekdays, and even he, a true disciple, has not been able to see it with his own eyes, and the sect cherishes it tightly, how can it be like Wenfu, so casually raised in the mirror lake, it is simply used as a bet to make fish and dragon porridge.
At that moment, Jiang Feng asked curiously: "Then Father-in-law of the land, are you here tonight, do you also want to catch a dragon carp?"
"That's!" said the father-in-law of the land, sitting up straight, affirmed, "Since that bet, the young lady has let go, no matter who it is, if anyone in the Wen Mansion can catch the dragon carp, she will fulfill the bet." β
Jiang Feng's eyes widened, Wen Bin's bearing, it was really extraordinary, no wonder the Land Guild was here, if it was him, he couldn't wait to stay by the mirror lake day and night, just waiting for a certain dragon carp that didn't open its eyes to open its mouth and bite the hook.
He had never eaten such extravagant delicacies in his life!
Jiang Feng secretly swallowed his saliva, and the father-in-law of the land suddenly showed a smile from a fellow person, and said: "You said that we haven't tasted this young lady's craftsmanship that we have not tasted, whether it is delicious or not is secondary, but if you can really cook it yourself, then the old man I have not lived in vain in my life." β
Jiang Feng nodded thoughtfully, and said that the gentleman was far away from cooking, not to mention an immortal figure like Wen Bin, he really couldn't imagine what it would be like for her to cook herself, if she could get it and taste it, it would be really a blessing in three lives!
"Have you ever fished that old-timer?" Jiang Feng changed the title of the father-in-law of the land to an honorific title without a trace, and asked the key question.
The father-in-law shook his head, and said distressedly: "No, otherwise I would still be here?" There are also many people in the mansion who have come to fish one after another, but they have all failed, and in the end they all think that what the young lady said is just a joke, and it cannot be true. Those dragon carp are all psychic artifacts, shrewd, old man, I have been here a few times, not to mention the fish shadow, I haven't even caught a piece of fish scales. β
The corners of Jiang Feng's mouth twitched a few times, and he smiled a little copingly: "Old man, you are really persistent, you haven't found some doorways?"
"Not a lot of doorways. I think it's still my bait. β
The father-in-law of the land said and opened the simple laced small wooden box beside him, the internal structure of the wooden box was only three layers-
The first level is filled with a variety of hooks, the second floor is filled with some strange and unnamed auxiliary tackle, and the third floor is left alone for a variety of baits.
"The old man is really interested!"
Jiang Feng gave a thumbs up to the father-in-law of the land, he could see that the attitude of the father-in-law of the land was - fishing for dragon carp, I was serious!
Jiang Feng's eyes purred, and he moved forward again, and said, "Since you always say that this dragon carp is a psychic artifact, then no matter how good these various baits are, they are just mundane things, how can they take the bait?"
The father-in-law nodded and agreed: "I think it's the same reason!
Jiang Feng chuckled, "It's better to ...... Try the pill. β
"Pill?" Father-in-law of the land pondered for a moment, then suddenly slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "Good idea, why didn't I think of it?"
"You're here, but I'm looking at things, I'll go back to the room to get the elixir, and I'll go back. β
The father-in-law of the land stuck the fishing rod diagonally into the ground and asked Jiang Feng to look at it, and at the same time he was about to go and get the pill back to use as bait.
Jiang Feng was stunned with a smile on his face, and the corners of his mouth twitched, the old man was really determined to fish this dragon carp, it seems that the so-called Wen Bin's promise should also be true.
He hurriedly stopped the old man, stepped forward with the face of a profiteer, and said with a cheeky smile: "Old man, you see, I have a lot of ready-made elixirs, are you afraid that there will not be enough bait?"
The father-in-law of the land stretched out his finger and nodded at Jiang Feng, and also smiled: "Nothing to do, let's talk, what the hell are you kid doing?"
"How can it!" Jiang Feng smiled, denied it, but pulled the old man to squat down, and whispered, "The younger generation has never tasted the taste of dragon carp in his life, thinking about giving some pills and giving some hands to the seniors, it is more or less a little contribution, if the seniors really catch a dragon carp, the younger generations will not dare to ask for extravagance, and they just want to ask for a bowl of fish and dragon porridge with the seniors to try it." β
"Then what if you can't catch it? all these pills of yours will be lost, you have to think clearly!" said the father-in-law of the land with a smile.
Jiang Feng patted his chest, took out the pill, and said boldly: "If you can't catch it, you can't catch it!
The white-haired and white-eyebrowed rickety old man laughed heartily, straightened his waist with a smile, and pointed at Jiang Feng and quipped: "You kid really has the talent to make mud legs, and this kung fu is one after another." β
"Isn't this a self-taught experience from leaving the sect and wandering the rivers and lakes. β
The father-in-law of the land took the jade bottle in Jiang Feng's hand, which contained more than ten spirit pills, none of which had spirit patterns, but they were all of inferior quality, and they were only one line away from being promoted to Bao Dan.
"These elixirs are good, but they are still lacking. β
As soon as the father-in-law of the land spread his hand, more than ten elixirs in the jade bottle flew out and were fixed in the air in front of the two of them.
These elixirs were all stolen from Jiang Lingheng, and sending out another bottle of Jiang Feng would only be distressed for a while, but since the father-in-law of the land said that these elixirs were still not enough bait, he had to think about it again.
Just when Jiang Feng was thinking about whether to endure the pain and sacrifice a treasure pill, or sacrifice a hundred or two spirit pills, the father-in-law of the land had already shaken his sleeves and made a move.
I saw that the old man pointed a little at the sword in his right hand, and the elixir suddenly froze the void and arranged it into a ring, and the father-in-law of the land waved his sleeve again, and the ring surrounded by more than ten elixirs began to rotate and shrink, and finally merged into a pill.
Jiang Feng secretly smacked his tongue and was surprised, the only remaining pill in mid-air was actually promoted to a Bao Dan at this moment, although there was no spirit pattern, but it was at least a low-grade Bao Dan.
It seems that the father-in-law of the land forcibly fuses the pill in a non-alchemy way, and strongly improves its grade, which requires overhaul as a blessing to do it, which is feasible, but after all, it is only an outer way, which is why the pill in front of him has the ability of the pill but does not have the sign of the spirit pattern.
Although this method has forcibly increased the efficacy of the elixir, on the whole, it has wasted a lot of elixirs, and unless they lose their minds, no monk will be willing to do this.
But now it's to make the bait for the dragon carp, so naturally there is no need to worry about this.
"It should be bait, and it should be like bait. β
As he spoke, the father-in-law raised his hand and pointed to his small wooden box, and suddenly some bait flew in, wrapped in the outer layer of the elixir, and when it finally fell back into the hands of the father-in-law of the land, it was like a real bait.
However, this move is only to cover its shape, but it does not hide its fragrance, the "bait" is still overflowing, and it is definitely a first-class bait.
The father-in-law skillfully stabilized the elixir bait on the hook, then hooked it into the lake, sat on the spot with the rod, and resumed his fishing posture.
Jiang Feng knew that fishing was the most patient, and he couldn't come in a hurry, and the land lord cultivated as a mystery, and he had his own magic method so that ordinary carp could not get close to the bait of the pill, so he didn't need to worry, and he also sat down on the side and waited for the result.
About a quarter of an hour later, there was a sudden ripple at the place where the fishing line entered the lake, and the fishing rod in the hand of the father-in-law of the land was suddenly bent, and the two opened and closed their eyes at the same time, looking together.
At first, the rod was only bent in a slight arc, but after a few times, it suddenly widened, and the curved arc seemed to break the rod, and a huge force came from the other side of the fishing line, which made the originally calm and relaxed land father-in-law stand up suddenly.
"The dragon carp has taken the bait!"
The father-in-law of the land exclaimed excitedly, and Jiang Feng stared at the center of the mirror lake, which had changed from ripples to layers of water waves, his eyes were hot, and his eyes showed anticipation.
The flat lake is like a mirror, but the tranquility is suddenly broken, the fishing line is submerged in the water, and the splash is getting bigger and bigger, and finally it is like a wave, constantly slapping towards the shore.
At the same time, hundreds of koi fish in the lake suddenly became restless, jumping out of the water in groups, causing an endless stream of thousands of carp to leap over the dragon gate, almost forming an arched carp bridge on the water surface, as if something at the bottom of the lake was approaching the surface of the lake, which caused them to be uneasy.
The father-in-law of the land kept pulling the reel, as if he was wrestling with the behemoth at the bottom of the lake, pulling, or rather, forcibly pulling the fierce dragon carp out of the water.
"This brute is extraordinary, boy, and he hasn't come to help!"
Jiang Feng stepped forward in response, and just before he grasped the fishing rod with both hands, the father-in-law of the land withdrew his hand and turned around, and at this moment, Jiang Feng finally understood what kind of terrifying energy the spiritual creature at the bottom of the lake had.
With his current cultivation, although it is still difficult to enter the house, it is only easy to open the mountain and crack the stone with all his strength, so he is still dangerously dragged into the lake by the dragon carp, no wonder the father-in-law of the land is also so difficult.
"Senior, where are you going? I can't pull it alone!"
"You hold on, I'll go get the spirit treasure to net this beast!"
"Hurry up!"
Jiang Feng clenched his teeth, exhausted his strength, his face turned red, the muscles of his arms bulged, blood vessels appeared, and the whole person straightened up, eager to even use the strength to eat.
Rao was still dragged into the lake by the tailed hooked dragon carp, and his feet were sunk into two deep marks on the ground. However, on the other hand, the father-in-law of the land was still hunched up, unhurriedly looking for the spiritual treasure of the net fish in the back.
"Seniorβseniorβ"
Jiang Feng almost shouted hoarsely, his voice was broken, and his hands were almost unable to hold the fishing rod, but the white-eyed old man behind him just waved his hand, said "immediately" casually, and continued to rummage in his hand.
At this moment, Jiang Feng suddenly felt that the tight fishing line suddenly loosened, his face slowed slightly, and he was thinking about whether the dragon carp had lost his strength, but suddenly a huge force from the lake was several times better than before, dragging him towards the lake.
"Ahhh!!h
Jiang Feng screamed loudly, his feet were already submerged in the water, and his body was completely unstable in this area, but the father-in-law of the land who was "behind his ears" still didn't seem to notice it.
At that time, there were suddenly ripples in the lake, the water splashed, and a black shadow several feet long suddenly jumped out of the water, rushed to the shore, and slapped Jiang Feng's face, cutting off the fishing line by the way, and was about to fall back into the water.
Jiang Feng had already been submerged by the lake, and was suddenly pulled into the lake by a huge force, and he lost his figure, but the father-in-law of the land, who was always aware of it, lowered his eyebrows and smiled at this time, and did not even look back, and pointed out in front of the dragon carp like water, and a stream of blood suddenly spurted out of the dragon carp's mouth, which was included in the jade bottle containing the pill that Jiang Feng gave him before.
Jiang Feng heard a "poof" sound in the water, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a black shadow flashing in the water, it was the dragon carp that had re-entered the water, and with the thin moonlight cast on the surface of the lake, Jiang Feng seemed to see that the dragon carp had an extremely humane expression on his face, and then he swung his tail proudly in front of him and dived to the bottom of the lake again.
"This fish is laughing at me? Damn, this dead fish dares to laugh at me!"
Jiang Feng surfaced angrily, slapped the water in annoyance, the bamboo basket was empty, and he was about to go ashore, when he suddenly saw the father-in-law of the land dragging the fishing net that seemed to have finally been found by him, and was squatting on the lakeside looking at him resentfully.
"The dragon carp was let go by you, you have to compensate me!"
Seeing an old man with a white beard pouting and complaining to himself seriously, Jiang Feng shuddered when he didn't come, the muscles on his face twitched unconsciously, and he suddenly felt a sharp pain coming from his face.
Jiang Feng bared his teeth and stroked it gently, but the father-in-law of the land on the shore had already looked at his face and laughed.
"Hahaha! It seems that this beast is good to you, and I gave you a tattoo when we first met, but your tattoo is really ...... It's quite chic, and young people really know how to play. β
As he spoke, the father-in-law threw Jiang Feng a bronze mirror, got up and left with a smile, and all those fishing tackles were thrown in place like waste.
"It's worth it!"
Jiang Feng looked at his face reflected in the bronze mirror, and then listened to the high laughter of the father-in-law of the land in the distance, no matter how much he realized it later, he completely understood it at this time.
What fishing dragon carp, what fish and dragon porridge!
If there's anything worse than being teased three times on the same day.
Jiang Feng wanted to cry without tears, and even a little annoyed and angry, he almost crushed the bronze mirror in his hand, he only felt that this father-in-law of the land was too ungraceful to his predecessors, why did he have to worry about him, a junior.
But as soon as he became angry, there was a cone pain from the scar on his face, and the left side of his face was struck by the dragon carp, leaving a complete trace of fish scales, and blood even oozed out of several deep places.
Fortunately, this dragon carp is not weak, and he keeps his strength again and again, he just wants to leave a lesson for Jiang Feng, and mock one or two, otherwise, this tail can directly smash Jiang Feng's head.
Turning around and looking at the Spectacle Lake, the lake surface at this time had returned to calm, and no matter how angry Jiang Feng was, he could only sigh in the end, wilt his face, and returned to the Fenglin Pavilion wet.
At night, a dragon carp came out of the water, and a tail shot people into the lake!
