Chapter Seventy-Six: Seven Hundred Taels, a Great Harvest
The truth that he had strayed into the gray waters before made Zhong Chao a little crying and laughing.
And just as he sighed, several gray lines surged towards him silently.
"Sneer......"
Although Zhong Chao, who had been bitten once, raised his vigilance, the visibility in the water was too low, and the infected leeches were almost the same color as the gray water, which made Zhong Chao more vigilant and still did not find them.
It wasn't until these things bit his body that Zhong Chao became aware of their existence.
And this also made him understand one of his flaws.
"No, I have to find a way to improve some perception, my vision is too poor."
The body was bitten, but Zhong Chao still had cranky thoughts, but it was conceivable that the pressure brought to him by the plague leech was extremely slight.
It is true that this is indeed the case, although the plague leech that bit him is desperately transporting yin qi, however, Zhong Chao's body is full of Yuan Yang qi, and the power of the sun is contained in the cells, which makes those yin qi unable to break through even his epidermal defenses.
"Bite it, bite a little more."
Relaxing, Zhong Chao let the plague leeches bite, and looked forward to more leeches coming.
And there are indeed many leeches here, and after he stayed in the water for only five minutes, thirty leeches came over and stung him.
At this time, the burden of these leeches on Zhong Chao was still close to nothing, but for fear of accidents, he did not recklessly, but swam up with leeches full of leeches.
"Huh!"
With his feet kicking, he soon came to the surface of the river from a hundred meters of water.
After jumping into the cabin, Jiang Liang and Yan Xiang, who were ready for the fire fold, immediately came to Zhong Chao's side and burned the leeches on his body one by one with flames.
"One, two, three...... Thirty-one, that's sixty-two taels, or a special fish that makes money fast. ”
Jiang Liang: "It's the boss that you are powerful, and when others encounter leeches, they don't make money, they die." ”
"Alright, stop slapping, put these things away, and I'll go down again."
In Zhong Chao's eyes, these leeches are no longer water monsters, but silver with white flowers.
Stimulated by these things, he continued to float and dive for the next two hours.
His long physical strength made him go back and forth more than a dozen times in a very short period of time, collecting more than 360 leeches.
Floating up again, looking at the leeches filled with a clay pot, Zhong Chao and the others were excited at the same time, but also had some worries.
Especially Yan Xiang, he thought of something, and hurriedly said to Zhong Chao: "Boss, this is a little wrong. ”
"What's wrong?"
"When I inquired, I heard from old fishermen that they had also fished for leeches when they knew that plague leeches were making money...... Unlike you, the boss, they tie the fresh meat with stones, sink it underwater, let the leeches suck it, and then pull it every half hour. ”
"It's just that, according to them, although leeches can gnaw on fresh meat, the chance of catching them is not very high, and there is a high probability that they will be bitten by dragon lice and break the rope. Because the income was not high, they gave up. But as soon as you go, boss, there will be leeches biting the hook......"
Speaking of this, Yan Xiang paused.
And Zhong Chao - in fact, he has long been alert.
Every time he went down, a leech would bite Zhong Chao and be caught by him.
It stands to reason that if you continue to capture in this way, the leeches in this area will be easily caught.
It's just that after two hours of tossing, Zhong Chao discovered a strange thing.
The more times he went down, the faster the leech bit the hook, and last time, he even brought 50 in one go.
"I always feel like I'm like Tang monk meat, and I've attracted all the leeches."
"Wait, Tang monk meat, Yuanyang's qi...... I remember that according to legend, female ghosts or monsters like to devour the blood of human beings to replenish themselves. And the richer the breath of life, the more those demons and monsters like it. ”
"My Yuanyang Qi will not be a great supplement for demons and monsters."
Thinking of this, Zhong Chao felt a little chill in his heart.
Seeing his solemn expression, Yan Xiang immediately suggested: "Boss, why don't we fish again and leave?" ”
"No, no fishing, let's go now."
Afraid of unknown dangers, Zhong Chao chose to leave this place immediately.
There were no accidents in the process of leaving, and when he returned to the shore, looking at the calm river, Zhong Chao felt a trace of hesitation in his heart.
"Could it be that I think too much, there is not much danger underwater, or the danger is very deep, as long as I don't dive, nothing will happen."
There are such odds, and the odds are high.
It's just that, even so, Zhong Chao still didn't return, but cut off the hesitation.
"You can't leave anything to chance. When a man is killed, he dies. Dead, it's all over. ”
"And, out of here, I can make money."
On this day, Zhong Chao's biggest gain was not that he caught more than 300 plague leeches, although these things were expensive, they were bought and sold at one time.
What excites Zhong Chao is that he knows where he has the most advantages and can use these things to make money.
"There are many special places near Jujiang City, and it can't be as mysterious as the gray waters, as long as I find out the situation and estimate the danger, I can go and catch fish."
"Moreover, while making money, I can also train myself."
The cultivation of the Pure Yang Golden Bell Jar requires pressure, and those special places have all kinds of dangers, but they are also the most suitable places for Zhong Chao's cultivation.
In fact, gray waters can also be cultivated, Zhong Chao can feel that the further down, the more intense the cold aura in the waters, diving 100 meters from the boundary of the water-colored waters, the cold can affect him.
Even, because the gray water is cold and cold, and the qi of Yuanyang is restrained, the stimulation of the water is particularly strong for Zhong Chao.
"Stimulating oneself with high-concentration gray water is definitely more effective than frying."
Unfortunately, the grey water was too weird and mysterious, and even if he noticed that the effect was good, he didn't dare to act rashly.
……
Back on the shore, Zhong Chao and his party first spent several hours selling all the infected leeches.
The reason why it took so long was to avoid merchants from lowering prices, so they ran several pharmacies.
After selling the things, looking at the more than seven hundred taels of silver in his hand, Zhong Chao's heart was rarely excited.
"It's been sent, it's really sent this time!"
"Ye is finally rich!"
Holding these silvers and thinking about the hardships of the past, Zhong Chao was moved by all the hardships.
"In the future, I will never be short of money again!"
The excitement lasted for a long time, and when the mood calmed down slightly, he divided some leftovers for his younger brother Yan Xiang and Jiang Liang, and hid most of the money.
Then, Zhong Chao took a small part of the silver taels and ran towards the pear dress rouge shop, which was to buy silver light fish oil ointment.
Some time ago, due to lack of money, the application of his ointment had been suspended for a long time, and now, it can finally continue.
It's just that when he arrived at the pear rouge shop, he found that the place was even more deserted, and what made him even more helpless was that the fish oil paste here was sold out.
"Out of stock? When can I make up for it? ”
Zhong Chao's inquiry made Huang Li show a wry smile on his face: "I don't know ...... for the time being."
Halfway through speaking, she suddenly thought of something, and said to Zhong Chao: "Young Master Zhong, you are the disciple of the master of the Vajra Martial Arts Pavilion, I wonder if you can ask Lord Blackfish to sell me some special fish, I am willing to pay thirty percent of the store's profits." ”
