Chapter Ninety-Eight: A Moment of Peace
Xia Yang and Xiao Hei rarely relaxed for a while, but the sky will soon get dark, they have been practicing for the first two days, and everything they eat is prepared by the master, Xia Yang knows that there is a river about ten miles northwest, and when he was hunting demon beasts, he noticed that there were many fat swimming fish in the river, so Xia Yang decided to go to the river to catch some fish and shrimp for dinner, so Xia Yang walked to the master, and when Xia Yang walked to the master's side, Xia Yang said respectfully: "Master, the sky is about to get dark, I will go catch some fish and shrimp and come back to prepare dinner." ”
"Well, let's go!" Mr. Wu said indifferently.
"Yes, Master. Xia Yang wondered why there was something wrong with his master's voice, but he didn't think much about echoing it, and then turned to Xiao Hei and said, "Xiao Hei, let's go!" After speaking, Xia Yang walked in the direction of the river in his memory. Xiao Hei heard Xia Yang's shout, and ran towards Xia Yang with a long whistle, and it didn't take long for Xia Yang and Xiao Hei to disappear into the depths of the red leaf forest, Mr. Wu was still sitting there quietly, except for the breeze floating, occasionally birds flew by, and the place gradually became quiet.
Xia Yang and Xiao Hei walked all the way in the Red Leaf Forest, because the ninth-order demon beasts within a radius of fifty miles were cleaned up by Xia Yang, so Xia Yang didn't worry about accidents along the way, and there were only some seventh- and eighth-order demon beasts left, and then there were some beasts that had not cultivated. The eighth-order demon beast Xiao Hei was able to deal with it, so Xiao Hei ran around like crazy after leaving the vicinity of the first line of heaven here, running from Xia Yang's left with a hare in his mouth for a while, and then appearing behind Xia Yang.
Half an hour later, Xia Yang and Xiao Hei finally came to the side of the river where Xia Yang hit, and saw a few swimming fish jumping out of the slightly turbulent river from time to time. Walking to the river, which was about two zhang wide, Xia Yang found that the river was not very deep, and he held in his hand a branch that had been sharpened on the road like a short dagger. At this moment, a fish suddenly jumped in front of Xia Yang, Xia Yang's eyes narrowed, and then he threw his right hand, and the short branch in his hand was like a sharp arrow and quickly attacked the fat fish that jumped out of the water.
In the blink of an eye, the sharp branches directly hit the fat fish that jumped out of the water, and the galloping short branches directly penetrated the fish's body and shot into the distance, and were stuck on the trunk of the tree ten zhang away, which showed how strong Xia Yang's strength was. Looking at the fish that landed on the opposite side, Xia Yang smiled with satisfaction.
At this moment, two fish jumped on the surface of the river at the same time, Xia Yang didn't want to think that two short branches suddenly appeared in his right hand, with two "whoosh" sounds, the short branches whistled by, and one of the short branches directly hit the fish that jumped out of the water, and the result was the same as the first fish, falling on the opposite bank of the river. The other fish was much luckier than the one just now, and saw the short branch gliding against the fish's dorsal fin, causing the fish to make a false alarm, quickly falling back into the water, shaking its body and embedding itself in the water. Looking at the fish that escaped, Xia Yang secretly said in his heart that it was a pity, it seemed that his quasi-head still needed to be contacted, and after leaving here, he must practice more.
Putting his attention back on the river, from time to time there are fish jumping out of the water, all the big fish Xia Yang did not let go, a stick of incense time, Xia Yang hit more than a dozen fish, if more than a dozen fish Xia Yang and Mr. Wu are enough to eat at night and tomorrow morning, but the little black next to him does not look small, but the amount of food is disproportionate. The fish you have caught are enough to eat tonight, and if you want to eat tomorrow morning, you will need to catch a dozen fish.
Fortunately, there are not a lot of fish here, so Xia Yang doesn't have to worry about not having enough to eat, so Xia Yang concentrated on fishing on the side of the riverbank, and it didn't take long for a few more fish to come ashore, and Xia Yang thought that it wouldn't take long to prepare all the fish.
At this moment, a fireball suddenly passed in front of Xia Yang's eyes, Xia Yang was shocked, is there a Flame Explosion Tiger near here? It didn't seem to have been noticed just now, I didn't have time to think about it, Xia Yang turned around and looked around, but unfortunately he didn't see any trace of the Explosive Flame Tiger, just when Xia Yang was suspicious, he saw a Explosive Flame Fireball across the water, hitting a fish that had just jumped out of the water, and a loud bang swept through the quiet surroundings, and the fish that was hit was instantly burned to ashes, and the wind blew and scattered, followed by a childish tiger roar.
Xia Yang smiled bitterly, and finally knew that the owner of the Flame Explosion Fireball was not the Flame Explosion Tiger but Xiao Hei.
Sure enough, when Xia Yang looked at Xiao Hei, Xiao Hei was walking back and forth on the riverside with his teeth and claws, it turned out that Xiao Hei had been watching the swimming fish in the water since he came to the river, and occasionally a fish suddenly jumped out near Xiao Hei, Xiao Hei was almost about to pounce, but thinking that he couldn't swim in the water, he could only watch the fish jump out of the water and jump into the water. In a flash of inspiration, Xiao Hei decided to use the explosive fireball to hit the fish that jumped out of the water to the shore, so the scene just now appeared, after Xia Yang understood what was going on, he said to Xiao Hei with a wry smile: "The power of the explosive fireball is too great, even if you concentrate the fish that jumped out of the water, you will want to burn the fish directly like just now, you don't need to help, just wait to eat!" Xiao Hei roared twice with some grievances, then turned his head to face the river, and lay on the side and no longer moved.
Looking at the aggrieved little black in his heart, Xia Yang no longer paid attention to it, and waited intently for the fish in the river to jump out of the water, perhaps because of the loud noise caused by the fireball just now, only to see that the fish were wandering under the water, and for a while the river no longer rolled on the waves, and the fish no longer jumped out of the water. However, Xia Yang was not in a hurry, believing that it would not be long before the fish would jump out of the water.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for a bold fish to rush out of the water from the bottom of the river, flipping out a beautiful wave, and the fish jumping out of the water fell into the water with a 'poof' after a few flips in mid-air. Xia Yang didn't have a chance to hit the fish to shore, but waited for more fish to jump out of the water. Sure enough, after a few breaths, the river swelled again, and the fish jumped out of the water. Xia Yang smiled at the corner of his mouth, and hit the fish he liked on the shore, and the tea kung fu had already made the remaining fish bigger.
Looking at the more than thirty fish lying on the opposite side, Xia Yang hit the ground heavily, and his body jumped towards the other side of the river. He Kuan, who is nearly two feet long, is nothing in Xia Yang's eyes. In the blink of an eye, Xia Yang landed smoothly on the opposite bank, Xia Yang took a sharp dagger from his body to clean up the fish scattered on the ground, and after cleaning, he put all the fish into the basket, and then jumped back to the opposite shore. Calling up Xiao Hei, who was still lying on the ground, he walked in the direction of going back.
By the time Xia Yang returned to the first line of heaven, the sky was already groggy, and the dead branches picked up on the way back were erected, and the fish that had been cleaned were penetrated by Xia Yang with branches. When the fire was strong, Xia Yang put all the more than a dozen fish on the skewer and began to grill. Xiao Hei knew that he would be able to eat delicious fresh fish soon, so since he came back with Xia Yang, he never left Xia Yang, making Xia Yang laugh, even so, Xiao Hei still followed Xia Yang unrelentingly.
It didn't take long for bursts of tempting fish aroma to emanate from the fish that was almost baked, and Xiao Hei beside Xia Yang swallowed his saliva, his eyes stared directly at the fish on the fire, looking pitiful and embarrassed, how could he still have the majesty of a top-level mysterious beast. Xia Yang said with a smile: "You will have something to eat when it is baked, don't worry now!"
In less than a quarter of an hour, the fish on the shelf were grilled by Xia Yang, and from these fish, Xia Yang picked out four of the best and largest fish that were grilled, walked towards the master, and came to the master, Xia Yang said, "Master, the fish is ready, you can eat it first!" After speaking, he handed the fish in his hand to the master.
Mr. Wu nodded, took the fish handed by Xia Yang and said, "Yang'er, don't cultivate tonight, rest early after eating, you won't have a long night, and we will leave here early tomorrow morning." ”
"Yes, Master! Yang'er knows!" Xia Yang said respectfully, listening to Master's voice return to its usual appearance, Xia Yang's worries were put down, and then he said to Master: "There are still grilled fish over there, and Yang'er, who is not enough to eat, will go and bring you two more." ”
"No! that's enough. Mr. Wu said lightly.
"Yes, Master, then I'll go back first!" After speaking, after seeing the master nodding, Xia Yang retreated.
Back in place, Xia Yang saw Xiao Hei's anxious appearance, and said with a smile: "You Demon Tiger is too spineless!" But to say so, but Xia Yang still threw the already grilled fish to Xiao Hei, Xiao Hei couldn't wait for a long time, a tiger pounced on a big mouthful, and swallowed a finished grilled fish into his stomach, not caring that such a big fish would get stuck in its throat. Xia Yang knew that more than half of these fish that had been roasted would fall into Xiao Hei's belly, so Xia Yang looked at Xia Yang pitifully after seeing Xiao Hei eat a fish, and Xia Yang threw a fish again. When the grilled fish was still in mid-air, Xiao Hei, who was not in a hurry, swallowed the grilled fish into his stomach again with a jump, Xia Yang had to leave two fish, and all the rest were thrown to Xiao Hei. Xiao Hei looked at the grilled fish in front of him and roared excitedly, and began to feast. Xia Yang didn't care about Xiao Hei, picked up the grilled fish that was still steaming next to him and ate it slowly.
