Chapter Twenty-Four: Strange, Who Is Getting in the Way of My Fishing?!

In the blink of an eye, Li Bai had rented a farmhouse yard on the edge of the West Lake for more than half a month.

During this time he did not go anywhere, but stayed in his own place, which was barely counted as his new 'home', as he had done in his other home, practicing swords, calligraphy, eating, and sleeping every day.

That's right, Li Bai, who had just changed the map and was hit by the cruel reality, was hit by a female goblin and was ready to continue to develop obscenely, and he didn't want to go anywhere!

At the same time, he is also deeply reviewing.

In the nearly two months since he 'escaped' from Changgan Village, his own anger has indeed been a little too heavy.

This is just like the incident half a month ago, the female goblin, the little white lady did not hinder him Li Bai for anything, but it was the mountain god who harmed his Mei'er sister, and the evil animal belonged to the heavenly court.

Therefore, while he was trying to reflect during this time, he continued to stay at home honestly and did not go anywhere.

Although life is a bit monotonous, Li Bai thinks it's good......

At least, after these days of observation, he really didn't find any signs of the attack of the heavenly soldiers, and he didn't see anyone come to his trouble for anything, and the female goblin seemed to have forgotten his existence, and only cared about going out late and returning early all day long, and it was rare to see him once in three or two days?

So, in this case, he finally let go of his heart a little, and felt that he would definitely not have any big problems living here for a long time.

But well......

At present, the external threats seem to be gone for the time being, but some internal threats are bothering him all the time.

So much so, after struggling for a few days, he had to prepare to make plans early.

Because, at present, Li Bai has a more important problem that needs to be solved as soon as possible, that is, he is about to go bankrupt, and he has no money!

Yes, there is just no money.

It is said that it is difficult for a Qiao woman to cook without rice, and Li Bai, the 'Qiao Lang', is the same, he must not be able to cook to support himself when he has no money, after all, he is not a god, he needs to eat whole grains, so he must think of other ways in the short term.

There are many ways to make money in this world, but there are not many suitable for Li Bai at present, because he doesn't want to make a fortune, he just wants to make a little money to make a living, so that he can live relatively quietly in this world and in this place?

As a result, relying on the mountains and relying on the water has become one of his many options, which is not too good, but it is the most suitable and the least noticeable.

This is not?

After practicing, taking advantage of the opportunity that it was still early in the vicinity, a few sword qi 'swished' to the place where the fish in the lake were infested, and then before anyone found it or people had not followed the movement to find it, he hurriedly picked up the largest dozen silver carp, silver carp and crucian carp and other big fish, and strung them together with thick wicker and carried them away, as for the carp that was accidentally fried, he didn't care too much.

There is a reason why he doesn't take carp, because the emperor of the Tang Dynasty is surnamed Li, and 'carp' has the same sound as 'Li', and eating 'carp' fish is naturally unlucky for the royal family of the Tang Dynasty, so the imperial court simply ordered a ban on eating carp, and the fishermen and fishermen must put it back into the river as soon as possible even if they catch it, and if there is a carp seller, once it is found, it will be put on a dozens of boards, and it will be imprisoned and exiled?

Because of this, the people of the Tang Dynasty were relatively fond of carp, and even worshiped carp as a mascot or totem, and you can see carvings and various decorations based on fish everywhere on the streets of the city, and most of those daily necessities and accessories are in the shape of carp, such as fish pattern embroidered pillows, jade fish pendants, fish charm sachets and so on?

Although it is now the Great Zhou Dynasty and the female emperor Wu Zetian is in power, this law has not been changed, so Li Bai, who doesn't want to cause trouble, naturally didn't dare to touch those things, he just fished a big one and prepared to take it back to enjoy himself.

As for the other fish, he is going to take it to the morning market outside Hangzhou to exchange money, as long as he makes a few more trips back and forth like this, it is estimated that he will be able to eat and drink in the next year and a half.

Although this method is relatively slow to make money, it is also a low-key and conservative method, so Li Bai did not feel that there was anything wrong.

“!!”

At this time, Li Bai, who was walking back with a string of fish in his hands, at least a few dozen catties, suddenly noticed that someone seemed to be peeping at him?

"Who is it?!"

"Who's over there? Come out!! ”

Then he was startled, and his hair was a little raised, so he turned sharply and snorted at the place where he sensed that something was wrong.

“??”

"Ahh

"Originally, it was you......"

After discovering the big tree in the distance, he slowly walked out, the expressionless and holding his arms, just frowning and leaning on the side of the big tree and looking at himself for a long time, actually had a 'misunderstanding' with him half a month ago, and then there was no intersection, and there was no half-word The powerful female goblin, Li Bai put the heavy fish in his hand on the ground, and then arched his hand to the other party with a little embarrassment and secretly vigilant.

"Excuse me......"

"Little White Lady, are you here to find me? What's the matter? ”

Subconsciously, Li Bai felt that the other party must have come to him on purpose when he was waiting here, because Li Bai knew that this was not a place where the other party needed to pass by when he went out late and returned early, and it was not close to the willow forest where the other party lived and moved, so it stands to reason that the other party should not appear here at this time.

Therefore, he had to ask with a little apprehension, for fear that the other party would come to him for trouble because of the previous incident.

"Hey!"

"It's nothing, I heard movement here, so I'll just take a look......"

After speaking, the female goblin raised her eyebrows and looked at the big fish that Li Bai threw on the ground.

She knew that this situation had been happening a lot lately, and she had long been a little curious...... Anyway, she didn't believe that the man in front of her named Li Bai, this poor scholar could eat at least dozens of catties of lake fish in one day!

If it were her, would it be about the same?

But unfortunately, she doesn't like to eat fish very much, after all, the taste of that thing is too fishy, and there are a lot of spines, plus she never likes to learn from those mortals to cook slowly when she eats, so once she eats too much fish, her body is easy to be full of that fishy smell, which leads to the fact that the fat fish in the big lake will not be the best choice for her recipe.

"That's right!"

"I'm suddenly a little strange, a weird person like you, it's okay to hide around here on weekdays to practice swords and calligraphy, but what are you doing when you suddenly catch so many fish at once recently, do you want to eat them yourself?"

She paid attention to this situation a few days ago, if the other party wants to eat fish, then there is no need to fight so much, although it is almost winter now, but the weather here in Hangzhou is still hot, the kind of fish can not be put in a day or two to spoil, and even if the other party smokes, drying or pickling is useless, where is the fresh and delicious fish preserved by that method?

Besides, she knows that the other party is the same as herself, currently living on the edge of the West Lake, so close to the big lake, if you want to eat, you can come to the lake at any time to fight, can you make a fuss by the lake like just now and fight so much at once?

"Eat for sure!"

"But if you eat it yourself, maybe one or two will be enough......"

"For the rest, I'm going to take it to the morning market outside the city gate to exchange some money, otherwise no one can stand eating fish every day."

Li Bai did not hide it, and directly and generously stated his main purpose of fishing.

"I see!"

Oh, the goblin nodded.

"Well, I guess I know......"

"It's not impossible for you to catch fish and sell it for money...... But if you fight so much every day, aren't you afraid of getting into trouble? ”

After blinking and looking at Li Bai in disbelief, finally, the white-clothed female goblin suddenly asked in a somewhat incredulous tone.

is different from Li Bai, she knows that fishing in rivers, lakes and seas can't be indiscriminately fished, if it's just fishing by herself to eat, it doesn't matter, but like Li Bai, who uses sword qi to 'fry' fish for several days in a row, and still sells it, this kind of thing will definitely cause some trouble!

When the time comes, she will have a good show to watch!

"Trouble?"

"What's the trouble? Little lady Bai, you are really joking, who is in the way of me Li Bai eating fish, fishing and selling fish? I can play as much as I like, and I'll play again tomorrow! ”

"I want to see who dares to trouble me!"

Li Bai was a little puzzled, and refuted this sentence angrily.

He had never heard of such a big West Lake as his family, nor had he ever heard of anyone or the court putting up a notice not to allow him to fish, as long as he didn't openly eat carp or sell it in the market for money, no one would care about the little thing he 'fried' fish.

Besides, he's not stupid, as long as he is a little careful and cautious when he fries fish, so that he doesn't be seen, who can help him?

Besides, if he didn't have any money himself, and fishing was a legal and legitimate means to get money relatively quickly, would he be guilty of temporarily changing jobs to become a fisherman? Just like now, carrying dozens of catties of fish on his body, the slippery and greasy ones are all those fishy smells and fish scales, and he doesn't want to do this himself.

"Hey!"

"Sure enough, it's true to say that you're a poor person who came out of the mountains, but you're really a stupid guy who doesn't understand anything......"

"Hey, it's a pity......"

Hearing Li Bai's crooked reasoning and sophistry, the fairy white lady blinked, but in the end she didn't refute, just smiled and sighed gloatingly.

"Whatever you want!"

"Anyway, what do you like, there are so many fish in this lake, you can't catch them all!"

"That's right!"

"Your scholar's swordsmanship is quite good, I secretly watched it for a few days before, if you can continue to practice like that, the future will definitely be limitless?"

Yes, this last sentence is indeed her sincere words.

Thinking about it, she herself was a little ashamed, because the Li Bai in front of her looked like she was only about fourteen or fifteen years old, and it was estimated that she would not have many years to practice swordsmanship, but just like this, she could fight with her, a 'true cultivator' who had more than 500 years of Taoism, in swordsmanship, and forced her to use the special trick spell of Samadhi True Fire, if it was spread out, her face would probably have no place to rest.

If you let the other party practice for a few more years and make progress, how can you pay it back?

But fortunately, the other party is not her enemy, she and him did not have much of the kind of cause and effect that cannot be solved before, and the other party did not dare to come to her to subdue demons and demons again, so she still does not have the idea of 'cutting the grass and eradicating the roots' or 'ending the cause and effect' of the other party.

"What I said is true!"

Seeing that the other party didn't seem to believe it, she added this sentence again.

“……”

"The little white lady praised it falsely!"

Of course, Li Bai himself knew that his swordsmanship was powerful, and he didn't need the other party to remind him, otherwise, he wouldn't have easily overturned the mountain god and destroyed the four heavenly soldiers to complete the first 'five kills'.

"Just ......"

"I still don't understand it, what do you mean by the trouble you just now, little lady?"

Obviously, Li Bai is more interested in the matter that the other party asked him about just now, and just now the other party once again ridiculed him for being a 'poor cuo' from the mountains, so he must ask this matter clearly.

"You really want to know?"

"Yes!"

"How much do you want?"

"I really want to!"

"Really?"

"I hope to let me know!"

"Hah! Then I won't tell you! ”

After speaking, in Li Bai's stunned eyes, the female goblin, the little lady in white clothes suddenly playfully grimaced at him, and then smiled so happily, turned around and left?

“???”

"Hey!"

"Little white lady, what's the matter?"

"Hey!!"

You know, Li Bai hates this kind of guy who provokes the conversation and makes him itch and suddenly stops talking, and if he really can't beat the other party, he might have rushed up and pressed the other party with a scabbard or a shoe.

But it's a pity that he just thinks about that kind of idea, and he definitely doesn't dare to put it into practice.

"Ha~!"

"Don't worry, scholar Li Bai, as long as you continue to catch fish like that, it won't be long before you yourself will know soon."

"Don't ask, go back quickly, don't forget your fish!"

The hateful female goblin, the little lady surnamed Bai still didn't say anything, she just smiled and waved her hand at Li Bai from afar, then twisted her waist, and walked in the direction of her willow forest in bursts of crisp and hearty laughter, and soon disappeared.

“???”

"It's really inexplicable, I Li Bai fished and recruited whoever provoked whom, I really don't believe it, can I still make trouble when I fish?"

"I'll fight tomorrow!"

Anyway, Li Bai himself didn't believe that he would get into trouble because of fishing, after all, he was just making a quick buck, and now the catch and sales of fish on the market have not been affected in any way because of his participation, and he has not infringed on anyone's interests, and he will not believe that someone will come to him for trouble for the sale of one hundred or hundreds of dollars a day.

Besides, he's not afraid to trouble him!

When the time comes, he will unsheath his long sword and cut down a big tree with a sword, just like he did when he 'borrowed' a horse, is it possible that those guys will not be afraid of death and dare to continue to provoke him, a 'killing god' with force?

"Forget it!"

"Ignore that goblin for now, let's hurry home, this fish will not be fresh for a long time, and it will not be sold for a price!"

"It's really ......"

After being entangled for a while, Li Bai, who really couldn't understand the reason, finally had no choice but to complain in annoyance, and then turned around and walked briskly towards his home.

Later, he will take the fish to the morning market to exchange money, and then try to come back a little earlier to attend to his own business.
