Chapter 624: The Game of the Fisherman and the Fish
The rooster crows for the morning light, and then dawn breaks.
In the early morning, when the sun rose high, Yi Abao gradually woke up, rubbed his eyes and looked left and right, he was already lying on the bed at home, it seemed that it was still his bedroom, but his wife should have gotten up.
This will be a little unsure of Bao, did he really attend the mountain banquet with Uncle Taiye and them yesterday, or was it just a dream at night?
I have to say that everything last night was a little too ridiculous, and it really felt like a dream.
At about the same moment, Wu Yuantao was talking to his son about last night in the guest room, but he said it more carefully, and he did not hide his excitement, and he heard Wu Ziqun skeptical on the one hand, and regretful on the other.
When Ah Bao got up, the door was opened with a "squeak", and his wife Lu walked in with a basin of water, and smiled when she saw Ah Bao get up.
"Awake? I haven't seen you drink so much wine for so many years, and you got drunk once when you were named on the Han'er Gold List, don't drink too much in the future, and it will hurt you if you drink too much good wine. β
"Alas"
"By the way, it was very late when you came back last night, and you were drunk again, I don't want to ask you, let alone Mrs. Zu, now that the sky is bright, which house did you go to in the mountains?"
As soon as he heard his wife's words, Ah Bao was in good spirits, and last night was really not a dream!
Yi Abao was also excited, put on his shoes and walked to the basin stand, and took the face towel that his wife handed over that had been kneaded and wrung into water.
"I thought it was a dream, it doesn't seem to be, I'll tell you, I went to the middle of the Koonan Mountain, in front of the half of the hill, an ancient pine tree covered with a roof, there is a quiet but magnificent mansion over there, called Qingsong Mansion, dozens of houses before and after, the guests who come to congratulate are not counted, it is very lively."
Lu Junling nodded.
"It seems that it is indeed not the land of the world, how can there be such a big mansion on Koonan Mountain?"
"It's really not like I saw a student at that banquet!"
Afraid of scaring his wife, Ah Bao said very subtly, and briefly described the excitement of last night during the washing process, even so, Lu Junling was surprised again and again, and he trusted her husband's words very much.
"By the way, what about Dad and Uncle, are they still sleeping?"
Lu Junling smiled.
"Dad and Uncle have already gotten up, Dad is very energetic today, his waist and pole are straightened, this will already go out, saying that he is going to Eshui to catch the big fish that escaped back then!"
"Huh? I've got to check it out! I've got to check it out! β
Yi Abao hurriedly cleaned up briefly, put on the small crown, and asked his wife to insert a hairpin for him, and then went out quickly, and when he walked to the front yard, he also met Wu Yuantao and his son, who had just come out.
By the West River, there were people washing in the early morning, and Yi Shuyuan and Yi Yongan were not seen.
"Yi Fuzi, will you already go to the West River Estuary?"
Wu Yuantao said this, and a woman washing clothes by the river shouted when she saw them.
"Old Master Yi, your old lady Yi just rowed away, saying that she was going to the mouth of the West River, and many people followed!"
"Thanks for informing me, I'll go!"
After Ah Bao finished speaking, he looked at the father and son of the Wu family, and then ran along the West River to the mouth of the river together, the pace was faster than just now, Wu Ziqun couldn't help but say.
"Master, don't be in such a hurry, they have only left for a while, how can fishing catch fish so quickly."
"Gotta hurry, gotta hurry!"
Ah Bao just responded like this, but his steps were faster, while Wu Yuantao glared back at his son, pulled him and quickened his pace, which also made Wu Ziqun cry bitterly.
These two elderly people are running faster and faster, and they can't keep up with the young man.
Even Po didn't quite know why he was in such a hurry.
Maybe although he was completely drunk last night, or maybe he can't remember what he heard last night, but the subconscious of his body made Po seem to understand something, so he hurried anxiously.
Finally, after running for more than a quarter of an hour, Ah Bao, who was already out of breath, finally arrived at the mouth of the West River and saw a small group of people over there.
Wu Yuantao was also out of breath, but the son beside him was so tired that he couldn't stand anymore, and he was panting as if he was about to lose his breath.
"Ho, ho, ho, you kid, I've pulled you halfway, why are you so unscrupulous? My Master and I are all right! β
"Ho, ho, ho. Father. Ho, ho."
Wu Ziqun waved his hand, unable to say a word, and Yi Abao, who had calmed down a little, had already moved again, but Wu Ziqun couldn't run anymore, so he could only move a little bit by his father.
At the mouth of the Xihe River, in addition to Yi Shuyuan and Yi Yong'an, there are also Yi Xuan and a few Yifu family members, as well as a few children of the Yi family and domestic servants, and a few good villagers in Xihe Town, there must be about 20 people.
It's not just Yi Yong'an who fishes, there are seven or eight people who join in the fun and play the rod together, after all, this time of day in summer is indeed a good time for fishing.
"Daddy, Grandpa!"
Ah Bao shouted when he arrived, and Yi Yongan glanced back.
"Coming? Don't shout, you'll scare the fish! β
"Alas!"
Yi Xuan walked over and shouted "Dad", and then bowed his hand to the Wu family father and son who came over, while the villagers in Xihe Town looked at Ah Bao and then Yi Yongan and Yi Shuyuan in a little surprise, not knowing who the "Uncle Taiye" shouted for.
However, the crowd was very patient while watching the excitement, and Mrs. Yi promised that no matter whether they caught the fish or not, they would invite everyone to eat a fish feast.
Yi Yong'an is surrounded by people from the Yi family, similar to the villagers, and it is unlikely that everyone will look at the drifting, but look at the boats that are starting to come and go on the river in the early morning.
The Ejiang River is also busy, the frequency of large ships and small boats is not too low, and the style of some building boats is also very fancy, and even some boats will have female Confucian students appear, looking at the crowd by the river.
Even if you just look at this view, many people can stand here and watch for a long time.
However, Yi Yongan stared at the drift without distraction, and the uncle told him that the fish would definitely come today, and he knew that this was the last game with the fish in his life, and there must be nothing to take lightly.
Although the previous games were all Yi Yongan's wishful thinking and void games, today, this time, his intuition was right.
Gray Mian stood on Yi Shuyuan's shoulder, it looked at Yi Yong'an, and followed his eyes to look at the water in the distance, the fishing rod given by Mr. was slightly curved towards the water surface, and the float was also up and down in the river waves.
An old man who has been obsessed and forgetful for many years, his eyes today are like a calm and calm old hunter.
A phantom condensed and formed at the water's edge, walked to the shore and saluted Yi Shuyuan, the person who came was Yan Bo, who was guarding the Linghe, but no one else could see him.
Yan Bo walked to Yi Yong'an's side and whispered.
"Old man, the fish are coming!"
This sentence seems to be Yi Yong's intuition in peace of mind.
And at this moment, under the water of E, the Yaksha Commander was stunned in his heart, not only Jiang Zhu'er was beside him, but even Yao E's mother was there.
". My subordinates have taken care of Eshui for many years, and I have no merit and hard work, so I'm afraid I won't be able to come back to be loyal to you."
The lamentation had no effect, but it made Yao E laugh, and Jiang Zhu'er on the side couldn't look at it, so she couldn't help but say.
"I've told you, I won't do anything to you, what are you afraid of!"
Yaksha looked up cautiously into the distance, where a faint spiritual light swayed with the river, which should be the place where the hook sank.
"My subordinates have heard what the people of Xihe Township have said, and they are waiting to eat fish and feast. That fishing rod was given by the Immortal Venerable, if I go, how can I come back."
In the past, it was rumored that if you offended Yi Daozi, there will be absolutely no good end, especially the water tribe, that will be after seeing Yi Daozi later, Yaksha will know that it is nonsense, who knows that it was wrong to himself, Xianzun This is a few decades later.
Yao E smiled and shook her head.
"Okay, don't be noisy, you haven't had such a big face to make Xianzun hold a grudge, you can't trust others, can't you still trust me?"
". The subordinates don't dare! β
"Well, be obedient, go and go back, look over there."
Yao E stretched out her hand and pointed in the direction of the distant fishing rod, and when Yaksha subconsciously looked over, a red light spilled out of her hand, which instantly turned into a huge red cloth painting.
Yaksha only had time to see a big fish on the red cloth, so he was directly covered with it, and by the time he reacted, he had become a big fish more than a man long.
"Woo Woo Bo Bo"
The big fish doesn't seem to have the ability to speak, and can only whine and spit out bursts of bubbles.
"Oh, don't be afraid, this method will break when it comes out of the water, or if you pull Yi Yongan into the water, you will win, and it will be cracked."
"Today's fish-man dispute, with the mind as the top, you are a yaksha and he is a mortal, it is not equal, but if you are directly brought ashore, I Yao E is not willing, last night I discussed with Yi Daozi for half a night, and finally used this painting method as a counterbalance, Yi Yong'an has a strong mind, and you are the same, don't despise him!"
Yao E smiled again as she spoke.
"Actually, I've fouled you all this, Yi Yong'an doesn't know anything about it, but if you don't tell you, you'll be afraid of Xianzun, and if you don't fight, you're already scared, so how can you play a game and have combat power?"
After Yao E finished speaking, she glanced at Jiang Zhu'er, who took over the conversation with a calm expression.
"Niangniang is right, and the Yaksha commander, think about it yourself, after today's stubble, it will be fine, if you don't go, maybe Mr. Yi really hates you, I hear Ash Mian sometimes mention the events of the year, if you don't go today, you may not be able to point to some disaster in the future!"
As soon as Jiang Zhu'er heard this, the big fish swam quickly around the two girls for a while, spit out more bubbles, and finally turned his heart to the shore where the angler was.
On the shore over there, Yi Yongan and others saw bursts of bubbles, and some people who were also fishing couldn't help but say.
"There's a big fish spitting bubbles! Oops, I'm fished! β
The man became excited and lifted the rod at once, but after a while, the rod broke directly.
Then the people around were hit by the fish one after another, but some people broke the rod and rope, and some people were simply dragged into the water, which was so embarrassing that the people around them laughed and understood that there were really big fish.
Now the fishing rod is still there, only Yi Yongan is left, and he has not caught the fish yet.
Some young people couldn't help but say.
"Master Yi, why don't you let someone else hold the rod, the fish in the water can be strong, you are old, in case"
Before they finished speaking, they were stopped by the Yi family's boos.
Yi Yong'an stared at the drift, the drift was slightly undulating, and the people around him also quieted down, showing a little nervousness, and some people were ready to pull Mrs. Yi at any time.
The big fish under the water swallowed the current, driving the hook, and even the fish on the hook had long been washed away by the river.
Hmph, the left and right are just an old lady, and the fish is a thousand pounds in the water, let alone me.
As soon as the thought fell, the big fish swallowed the hook directly with its mouth, and the fish float naturally went directly into the water.
It was also at this moment that Yi Yong'an burst out with an amazing momentum, like a dormant tiger bursting out!
"Woohooβ"
The fishing rod whistled like a full moon in an instant, and last night's alcohol seemed to have exploded today.
"Boom-"
The surface of the Ejiang River directly exploded into a wave.
"Caught in the fish!" "Let's let's, let's get it! Let the old lady be able to show it! β
"Oops, be careful!" "Hurry."
Someone rushed over, but Yi Yongan roared angrily.
"Don't let anyone help meβ"
The old body burst out with great strength, and the once burly and now slightly thin body trembled slightly, and his feet were firmly on the shore, swaying from side to side a little, sometimes wrestling and sometimes slipping.
The big fish under the water struggled to collide, and he initially wanted to break the fishing rod and drag the fishing line off, but after reacting that this was the rod given by Yi Daozi, he could only be ruthless and wanted to drag the old man into the water.
"Boom-" "Boom-"
The waves were rough and the water splashed onto the shore, so that everyone was not in a hurry, and many people, including Yi Yongan himself, were wet.
It's summer, and if it's cold, you can't stay.
But this scene also surprised and even frightened many people, it didn't look like fishing, it was like catching a dragon!
On the boats and boats that came and went, many people were shocked when they saw the situation at the mouth of the river, and the waves set off here were obviously wrong, and some boats could not even stabilize their direction.
Every violent struggle in the water will set off big waves, and this momentum will become more and more fierce later, also because the big fish in the water are more and more frightened.
How could a mortal, an old man, have such strength, it must be that the Immortal Venerable has cast a spell, this is not fair!
I'm bound to lose, I can't win at all, it's not fair!
As soon as this thought fell, Yi Yongan seemed to be aware of it on the shore, and suddenly exerted his strength at this moment.
"Boomβ"
The river exploded, and a fish more than one person was lifted along the fishing line for a moment, and then fell with a bang.
And at this moment, Yi Yongan also sat down on the ground all of a sudden, and the pole in his hand was weak.
"Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho"
Yi Yongan gasped, the people around him were silent, and some people maintained the posture of holding their heads to stop the waves, and some people were still widening their eyes at the moment, because everyone could see how big the fish was just now.
"Alas, the fish is unhooked."
Yi Yong'an sighed, but Yi Shuyuan walked over with a smile on his face.
"Not necessarily!"
The water parted from the waves again, and a naked man with long wavy hair walked on the waves, and the Yaksha Commander at this moment had a look of surprise and happiness on his face, but also a little shame.
Although this mortal has the help of the Immortal Venerable, there are various reasons, but in the final analysis, these are all excuses, he is losing to a mortal old man!
He didn't look at the expressions of the other people on the shore, but went to the water in front of Yi Yongan and the others, and bowed forward.
"Yi Gong, I am the patrol river Yaksha under the command of Yao E Niangniang in the Ejiang River, what you failed to do many years ago was not a big fish, but I cast spells in the river, and today I fought against Gong again, I lost, and if I want to kill, I have to listen to the respect!"
Yi Yongan looked ahead in a daze, the spirit just now seemed to be gone, scratched his head to look at Yasha, and then at Yi Shuyuan, it took a while to react, and hurriedly got up to return the salute.
"You're not a fish. Please, I'm just trying to catch some fish."
Yaksha raised his head.
"Isn't it easy to get fish?"
When the words fell, Yaksha waved his hand lightly, and many big fish jumped out of the river and jumped straight to the shore.
Others slapped their faces or twisted their legs, and most of them were unbelievable, and I am afraid that not many people believed this kind of thing, and there were some people who sat on the same thing, and there were some people on the two ships that passed through here.
