Chapter 229: Strange Fish

You Ziji's body technique is excellent, he stepped on the wind and jumped back with his strength. In his hand, he carried the freshly caught herring, which was as thick as a person's forearm. The other three couldn't help but feel a little itchy when they saw it. Ji Wenyi couldn't help it first, he said: "The junior brother's body kung fu is much stronger than mine, but as a senior brother, I can't let you underestimate it, this is my family's realm after all." ”

He pulled out the golden sword and put it into the river to stir it vigorously, and the true qi was also injected into the water along the golden sword, and soon a huge whirlpool was stirred, and the force it drove would penetrate the bottom of the river, and the further down, the greater the force, throwing all the fish in the area to the surface. He took a closer look and picked one of the herring fish, the same size as the one in You Ziji's hand, and then the speed of the golden sword in his hand suddenly accelerated, and the strength passed through the river and accurately transmitted to the fish, forming a column of water and pushing it ashore.

"That's a good way for me, that's what the monk who catches big fish on the river does, but unfortunately there don't seem to be big fish in this river, can they only show up when the sky is about to fog?"

Zhang Xingwen said: "It turns out that Senior Brother Ji is also hearsay, and he doesn't know much about it. ”

Ji Wenyi asked, "Does Senior Brother know how to find fish?" ”

"How do I know about your hometown, but I know that you just caught the fish in an inaccurate way, and you only covered a small place, how can you find the place where the big fish go? Look at me. ”

With a wave of Zhang Xingwen's hand, several sword qi had already submerged into the river.

Ji Wenyi said with a smile: "Senior brother, you have beaten all the sword qi, are you looking for fish or killing fish?" I think that if the big fish was nearby, it would also be scared away by your sword qi. ”

Zhang Xingwen didn't pay attention to it, but closed his eyes and meditated, those few sword qi seemed to be his eyes, probing the bottom of the river clearly.

Suddenly, a black shadow swam past the sword qi at an extremely fast speed, causing Zhang Xingwen to react.

"I feel like I've seen a big fish."

"Like?" Yao Yi was a little puzzled and said, "What kind of fish can escape your magic eye?" ”

Ji Wenyi also hurriedly came over and asked, "Senior brother, do you know what that fish looks like?" ”

Zhang Xingwen shook his head and said, "I can't see its appearance clearly, I can only see a black shadow vaguely." It's not very fast, I guess it has something to do with the scales on its body, which block perceptual spells. ”

"Senior brother may determine its location?" You Ziji also came over, "Let's just fish it up." ”

"This is a bit troublesome, if I attack it with my sword qi, I'm afraid that it will ruin its appearance."

Yao Yi said: "What are you afraid of? Leave it to me. ”

As the eldest senior sister of the four, Yao Yi's ability is naturally the most powerful of the four. You Ziji has never seen her methods.

I saw Yao Yi directly spread out a scroll, and on it was a formation map, which seemed to echo the stars in the sky, which immediately attracted Zhang Xingwen's attention.

Yao Yi sighed secretly in her heart, how could the senior sister never think of the work she arranged, and it was used by Yao Yi as a formation diagram, but it can also be seen that Hua Yunying's talent in the formation is not weak, but it can't be compared with the demon like the senior brother.

The star map exudes the same aura as the starry sky, and it can also be said that this array acts as a connecting hub between the starry sky and the world, projecting the star power down to form a huge fishing net, hugging all the rivers that are several circles larger than the position circled by Zhang Xingwen, blocking all the escape routes of the suspected big fish creatures.

This is the formation she comprehended, and it happened to be used to test it, and so far, the effect is not bad.

The fishing nets woven by Star Power can shrink more easily than ordinary fishing nets, and they have a forbidden effect, and no creature can escape without alarming Yao Yi, but it really happens.

"Senior brother, your eyesight is good, do you see where the big fish is?"

Zhang Xingwen had already retracted his gaze and said, "It has already escaped when you just closed the net." ”

Yao Yi was surprised: "What? It escaped, how did it do it? ”

Zhang Xingwen said: "I don't know, I just know that its form seems to be different from ordinary creatures. ”

"It can't be the soul of a fish or something, right?" Ji Wenyi immediately began to exude his thoughts.

Zhang Xingwen did not refute, "I haven't seen its true face, no matter what the conclusion is, it is possible." ”

They still want to continue researching, but Yao Yi has lost his enthusiasm, and is full of thoughts about what flaws he has set up in the net, so that a fish can easily run out, and it is not really the soul of a fish, which is really nonsense.

She threw her thoughts aside, thinking that since she was out to play, she would be entangled in what to do, and everything would be studied later.

"Senior Brother You, what about the fish you just caught?"

Faced with Yao Yi's sudden questioning, although You Ziji didn't understand what he meant, he still replied: "It doesn't have legs on it." ”

Yao Yi said: "I know it has no legs, what I want to ask is where you threw the herring fish." ”

"I thought you'd probably have to study it later, so I put the herring in the puddle."

Yao Yi asked, "That puddle?" Can you still find it now? ”

You Ziji said confidently: "Of course you can, there is nothing I can't remember about this matter." ”

But when he went to look for it again, the herring disappeared directly, and he couldn't find it.

Yao Yi saw that You Ziji was only wandering around, so he said: Is it the one in front of you? ”

You Ziji said with some hesitation: "It was supposed to be here, but I can't find it now, could it be that this herring can escape without knowing it?" ”

Yao Yi pointed to a stone in a puddle and said, "I've seen it." ”

You Ziji naturally couldn't see this direction, she came to Yao Yi's side and looked forward, and was suddenly shocked, the herring fish was only a skeleton left.

"Where's the flesh on it?"

"Eaten."

You Ziji was a little incredulous, what kind of creature could silently devour a whole fish under the noses of the four people, "Here, is there a beast?" ”

He turned around and looked around, this sandbar was flat, there was not even a single rise and fall, and where did the beast come from?

Yao Yi already had the answer in her heart, "I think it should be those strange fish." ”

You Ziji also immediately figured it out, he hurriedly caught the strange fish hiding in the small puddle again, and sure enough, the strange fish that was originally only the size of a fingernail is now at least three times the size of before.

"They must have eaten herring meat and converted it into growth energy. It's just that with such a fast growth rate, these strange fish should have been flooded a long time ago. ”

Yao Yi analyzed by herself, and she was just about to ask Ji Wenyi if there were any cases of strange fish hurting people in Jianping City or nearby towns, when she saw a sudden fog on the sandbar, and in only three or five breaths, the place where she entered was already white, and she couldn't see the location of other people clearly.

Fortunately, the distance between several people was about a zhang, and they shouted at each other, and they could see clearly when they turned their heads.

"Senior Brother Qi, this is the fog you are talking about, it is really strange, I have never seen such a thick fog."

Zhang Xingwen's praise made Ji Wenyi even more embarrassed, and he said: "Senior brother, it's the first time I've seen such a shocking weapon. ”

"It's really impressive, wait." Zhang Xingwen suddenly realized that something was wrong, "Senior Brother Ji, this is the first time you have seen you?" ”

Yao Yi took You Ziji and leaned over, exerting her majesty as a senior sister, "It's a little weird here, let's leave." ”

"Wait!"

Two voices came from different people's mouths, spitting out the same words.

Zhang Xingwen and You Ziji glanced at each other and took it for granted.

Zhang Xingwen said: "This fog is extremely strange, I seem to have seen many black shadows flashing here, let's not act rashly." ”

You Ziji said: "I just heard the news brought by the wind, and it seems that someone has come up. ”

Ji Wenyi said: "Isn't there someone who comes here to play like us?" Let's go over and walk with them. ”

Yao Yi retorted: "No, junior brother, can you be sure that they are all human?" ”

After Yao Yi's reminder, You Ziji immediately reacted that he was a little preconceived, so he said: "I don't know, but I feel more like a human." ”

Hearing You Ziji say this, everyone immediately realized the seriousness of the problem. It may not be people who come to the sandbank.

Ji Wenyi thought of this, and hurriedly said: "Then what are we still doing here, hurry up!" ”

He was very anxious in his heart, this trip was proposed by him, if anyone was in danger, Ji Wenyi would never forgive himself.

Yao Yi said: "The two of them are right, we can't go, after all, we are monks, much stronger than most people in this Jianping City, since we have this opportunity, we must get the information we deserve." ”

Zhang Xingwen echoed on the side, "Yes, it's best to bring back a template for Master Hao and the Elders of the Mountain Sect to study, so that they can find the origin of these mysterious creatures." ”

Three to one, Ji Wenyi didn't want to refute anymore, just took off the canopy from his back, just in case.

In this strange fog, Zhang Xingwen's speech was severely restricted, but fortunately, You Ziji's five senses were not bad, which could help him clearly understand the environment elsewhere.

Soon, not only You Ziji, but also the other three could easily hear some sounds, which seemed to be the sound of people walking. A rickety figure slowly emerged from the mist, becoming clearer and clearer.

It seemed to be a fat man, who walked not fast, but was very steady with every step, how did such a person come to this sandbar after the fog had fallen?

Before everyone could figure it out, the figure had already revealed its true body, shocking the four of them.

"Isn't this the strange fish?" Zhang Xingwen was a little uncertain.

Yao Yi said firmly: "It's that strange fish, with stubby limbs and a strong and powerful tail, it is the monster that the strange fish has grown up with." ”

Ji Wenyi was a little confused, when did this kind of thing exist near his home, or why was this kind of thing not widely known? "Are they monsters or elves?"

Yao Yi said: "No matter what it is, it has nothing to do with us, let's leave now, and when we go back, we will report to Senior Uncle Hao and the fourth senior brother, and let them solve this problem." ”

Yao Yi's decision was naturally no problem, but she ignored one problem, that is, there was more than one monster on this island. Soon, strange fish appeared one by one, more than a dozen of them, surrounding the four of them.

You Ziji said: "For the sake of us feeding their children, it shouldn't be difficult for us." ”

Yao Yi smiled: "I'm afraid they may know that you are not really feeding their children." ”

The strange fish held their bellies up, stared at the dead fish's eyes, and quickened their pace, as if they were about to rush over.

The four of them immediately shot, You Ziji didn't dare to have any reservations, who knows how much strength this strange fish has, he directly hit the empty palm with all his strength, slapped the strange fish away, and swirled on the ground. But soon it got up again, as if it hadn't been attacked.

Yao Yi's voice came at the right time, "The fish scales and fish skin on their bodies are very tough and have good defenses. ”

Seeing that the palm technique seemed to be ineffective against the strange fish, You Ziji directly communicated with the red feather fan to summon a huge fireball and ignite the strange fish that had just risen. There was a scorching smell in the air, the smell of the scales of the strange fish being burned, and even the thick fog around them could not isolate the smell. The strange fish seemed to be able to move, and You Ziji was about to make up for the blow, but saw a golden flying sword directly penetrate the strange fish and take its life.

Ji Wenyi said with some pity: "This fish has been scorched and can't be used anymore, how are you doing over there, senior brother?" ”

Ji Wenyi put away the golden sword and looked at Zhang Xingwen as well.

But seeing that Zhang Xingwen didn't answer, he just pursed his lips and made a lot of effort, and one after another the splitting sword qi rushed straight to the center of the strange fish's eyebrows, pushing its body backwards, but there was not much substantial damage.

Yao Yi noticed the difference and said: "This strange fish has slender limbs and defensive power, it is definitely not an ordinary product, let's take it back." ”

As soon as her words fell, the battle between Zhang Xingwen and the strange fish was finally decided, or Zhang Xingwen's splitting sword qi was superior, and the sword qi directly pierced the forehead of the strange fish, retaining the integrity of the strange fish's body to the greatest extent possible.

Yao Yi was overjoyed when he saw this, opened the scroll array again, and triggered the star power to turn into a big hand, scooping up the corpse of the strange fish, and shouted in his mouth: "Let's go quickly!" ”

Seeing that there were more and more strange fish gathered behind them, Zhang Xingwen and Ji Wenyi did not dare to delay at all, and Edgeworth took You Ziji and Yao Yi, who had no time to use the flying sword now, rushed out of the dense fog together, trailed with a long mist, and went straight to Ji's house.

……

Their movements were very conspicuous in the eyes of the people in the city, and those two flying swords unleashed their breath without any scruples to break into the Ji family, absolutely waking up many people. Bao Shan found out early that his junior brothers and sisters seemed to have encountered something special, and before he went out, he ran back, and he must have encountered something. He took out the parts of the treasure ship from the package, assembled them quickly, and then threw them out of the door, so that the night could blend in, and flew out quickly, catching them just outside the city gate, reducing the possibility of causing unnecessary trouble.

The four of them came to the ship very abruptly, and the whole process didn't even give them a chance to react, if they hadn't been on this treasure ship when they came, the four of them would probably have to smash things.

Back at Ji's house, Bao Shan was already waiting for them in the courtyard, and at a glance he saw Yao Yixingli's big hand, which seemed to be hiding something. Bao Shan could see the fins and scales and asked, "This is the big fish you caught?" ”

Ji Wenyi hurriedly said: "Senior brother misunderstood, this is not a fish, this is a monster." ”

Yao Yi spread out the star power palm and put down the strange fish corpse in it before dispersing the star power palm, which really made her breathe a sigh of relief.

Bao Shan was also stunned when he saw the strange fish, "Could it be that this fish is a monster?" No, they don't have true qi in them. ”

Zhang Xingwen said: "The four of us are shallowly educated, so we brought back the corpse of this strange fish, and I want to ask the fourth senior brother to help us confirm what kind of creature it is." ”

Bao Shan took a closer look and asked, "Where did you see it?" ”

Ji Wenyi said: "It's on the sandbar in the center of the Miojiang River, and it's not just this strange fish, there are more than a dozen besieging us, and this is the most powerful in it." ”

Bao Shan frowned and said, "I haven't seen this kind of strange fish either, maybe there will be relevant records in our library." When Master is free, I will ask him. ”

You Ziji said: "It would be nice if Senior Brother could tell us about its weaknesses, otherwise this monster is really difficult to kill, once one day it raids Jianping City, I think most monks will not be able to take them." ”

Bao Shan nodded and said, "I know, wait for my news." ”

……

After the four of them said goodbye to Bao Shan, they were going to go back to the room to rest, but several people were still a little unwilling in their hearts, and they were driven back by the strange fish before they had enough fun.

Among them, Ji Wenyi is the most, he wanted to take his fellow disciples to relax, but what he didn't want to encounter were all things that he had never encountered. He thought for a moment and said, "Shall we just go back to the room and rest?" ”

Zhang Xingwen said: "Then what else do you want?" The sandbar is full of that kind of strange fish, although we can escape, but we don't know how many dangers are hidden in it, and if the fourth senior brother doesn't have time to save us, it will be dangerous. ”

Ji Wenyi hurriedly said: "I didn't mean that, no matter how much I want to play, I can't put myself in danger." I just want to say that you don't have to go to a sandbar to see the fog, you can see it in front of my house. ”

You Ziji asked with some curiosity, "At the door?" Will it be as foggy as it was just now? ”

Ji Wenyi said: "The fog is indeed very big, but it is different from what I saw when I was on the sandbank. ”

Yao Yi, who hadn't spoken for a long time, said: "Then let's go and take a look, just to see if there is any trace of the strange fish in the Mio River, so we can take precautions in advance." ”

After hearing this, the three of them all agreed, so they didn't even have time to open the door of the room, so they went to the edge of the Mio River again.

You Ziji returned to the location where he had just seen the crabs, but unfortunately the crabs there had long since gone. Yao Yi and Zhang Xingwen were disturbed by strange fish, and the two of them cooperated with each other to search all the fish in the nearby waters one by one, but it was a big project.

Only Ji Wenyi, who seemed to be relatively idle, was also irritable in his heart, after all, his home was in Jianping City, on the edge of the Mio River, and he would definitely be the first to be attacked.

Time passed slowly, and the sky gradually became a little brighter. That's when something magical happened.

The surface of the river seems to be like the sky, and it also has its own white clouds.

When Ji Wenyi saw the scene in front of him, he immediately said, "Look, it's foggy." ”

His excited voice woke the other three up and looked at the river together.

I saw wisps of mist generated from the surface of the river, and became bigger and bigger, and finally converged and fused, turning into a huge fog cloth covering the surface of the river, as if in danger.

Under the influence of this mist, many of the fish began to have difficulty breathing, so they jumped out of the water one after another, painting a very beautiful picture of the river.

Seeing this scene, the mood of the four of them became cheerful, and they left all the unhappiness in their hearts behind.

You Ziji walked to the river with some curiosity and put his hand into the mist, which was a little cold for a moment, but he quickly got used to it. He used True Qi to control the fog and depict all kinds of beautiful patterns, which he had a lot of fun with.

Suddenly, the fog seemed to shake a little, maybe it was You Ziji's own illusion, he didn't care, but then, the frequency of the vibration became faster and faster, so dense that You Ziji couldn't continue to play, he got up suddenly, glared angrily at the river, I don't know where it came from, the fog clearly didn't move.

You Ziji put his hand into the mist again, only to find that the vibration was not seen with his eyes, but felt with his hands. He immediately thought of the body consciousness in the five senses, and didn't it represent the sense of touch.

He opened the magic trick, felt it carefully, and sure enough, he found that there seemed to be a team of people and horses in the distance, galloping on the river. It's just that You Ziji can't figure out if these people are him, why don't you fly with your sword.

"Senior sister, I feel someone moving on the river."

Yao Yi said with a smile: "It may be that a cultivator is still childlike and is playing with mist on this river, but I don't know who it is." ”

Zhang Xingwen said: "I'll know at a glance." ”

After a while, Zhang Xingwen said with a serious face: "I saw a group of people running quickly on the river, as if there was something urgent. ”

Yao Yi glanced at You Ziji with some surprise, and said, "Are you sure you can see it clearly, what are these people doing on the river when they have nothing to do?" ”

Zhang Xingwen said: "It's not like the sandbar here is also blocked by a special fog, I think they may be afraid of being discovered, and they are all wearing night clothes." ”

You Ziji said: "I don't know what they are doing, if they are in a hurry, the sword will be faster." If they were to avoid being pursued, then it was not a wise choice for them to choose the current time and place, and they thought they had other purposes. ”

You Ziji's guess is not unreasonable, and it is precisely because of this that several people are interested.

Yao Yi said: "What's more, there is still an unknown danger in the river, since we have seen it, it is not okay not to tell them." ”

Zhang Xingwen said with a smile: "For their safety, we can only give more." ”

Ji Wenyi said: "Anyway, there is nothing to do, so let's go along and take a look." ”

You Ziji also chimed in: "It just so happens that I also want to try what it's like to run on top of the fog." ”
