......

Somewhere at the bottom of the lake, the water is shaking.

There are countless turquoise aquatic plants growing in the bottom of the shallow rocks, melodious and fluttering, such a place is a good place for prawns and crabs to live, a shrimp is lying on a aquatic plant with a transparent body, staring at the bloodworms swimming in front of it, and the double pincers have quietly approached.

It was about to clamp when a large mouth full of fine fangs suddenly appeared!

Suck the prawns into the abdomen with aquatic weeds, and spit out the water without half a trace of meat scraps.

The small fish around fled one after another.

The owner of this sharp-toothed and big-mouthed mandarin fish seemed to be in a no-man's land, sometimes swimming and scurrying in the aquatic weeds, sometimes pecking wildly into the mud, stirring up the surrounding turbidity, and after a moment the aquatic weeds and birds were lifeless.

The mandarin fish shakes its nearly one-meter-long body, wags its tail leisurely, and fans its belly fins to move on to the next territory.

In the cloud, a yellow light flashed away, almost brushing against the fins of the fish.

And prey?!

The mandarin fish swam around violently, but found that there was no movement behind him, and left with a wag of his tail.

But at the moment when it just turned around, a yellow water centipede attached to the back of the aquatic weed, tilted its head slightly, stared at the departing figure with small eyes, and suddenly the six legs under the abdomen flicked with strength, turned into a line of yellow light and shot away, and fell on the back of the big mandarin fish in the blink of an eye, and the six-legged probe stretched out like scales and pierced into the flesh.

The mandarin fish was in pain, and writhed all its strength to roll in the water, stirring up waves in an attempt to shake off.

The water slave got the order of the "king", and naturally entangled him, with a centipede-like slender body, and his abdomen and feet firmly buckled the fish body.

Insect hunting, all of them are seeking stability first, and then seeking speed, ruthlessness, and accuracy, the water slave sticks to the fish body, quickly climbs to the head of the fish, and the head with big teeth stretches open the fan bone at the head of the fish and probes in.

The big mandarin fish has dominated the water for many years, and instinctively senses that something is wrong, and hits the stone fiercely, but it is too late!

The water slave bites on the gills of the fish and infuses it with venom.

Its venom is of two kinds, one is used to paralyze its prey, and the other is used to absorb the prey's flesh into water.

What the king commanded it was that it should be captured alive and not killed, but that it should be paralyzed.

After the water slave was ignited, not only did his body become larger, but the toxins were also much stronger, and after two or three breaths, a mandarin fish stiffened and became numb.

At this moment, Ao Yan had already gone ashore to get dressed, when he heard the sudden sound of water behind him, and his heart was happy.

"It's supposed to be a water slave. ”

Turning his head to look, he didn't see the figure of the water centipede, but a huge fish surfaced, lying sideways and floating here, until the body was stranded on the shore, and a huge yellow water centipede drilled out of the bottom of the fish's body, and the double sickle crossed through the upper and lower lips of the fish, dragging it hard.

It's like you're dragging a heavy object.

This scene made Ao Yan very surprised, and at the same time, he was a lot more eager to use the dotting technique next time, but he didn't know when it would be next time, and the incense must be enough.

As it approached, he saw the fish clearly, and his eyes measured it carefully.

This fish is eighty-two centimeters long, long in the horizontal, huge in physique, its open and closed lips, full of fine fangs, is indeed the fierce lord in this phase of the willow lake.

"That's very good. ”

Ao Yan nodded with satisfaction, and began to think carefully in his heart.

Such a fish is at least twenty-five catties, and the market price is eleven wen a catty, but if it is ten wen a catty, this fish can be sold for at least two hundred and fifty wen, hehe, this is higher than his budget.

"Sell the fish to weigh two catties of cooked meat, and treat you. Ao Yan looked at his stomach and said.

This time he looked down, he also saw the water slave's quite agile head, and was looking at himself eagerly, thinking that this mandarin fish was so arrogant before, and he was killed by the water slave in such a short time, which was quite happy.

So he said: "You did a very good job this time, Uncle Benhu will give you a credit, and if you want to hunt on weekdays, go to the small ditch connected to Xiangliu Lake, don't be in our own territory." Something will call you here, go ahead. ”

Such a fierce subordinate must not be in his own territory, otherwise he will have to eat poor.

If you want to be poor, other people's families are poor, and we can't go hungry ourselves, this is Ao Yan's survival creed today.

"Yes, my lord. The water slave bowed and flicked, and his body fell like an arrow into the air, shot into the water, and disappeared.

"Hehe, sell fish!" Ao Yan covered the fish basket, wealth is not exposed, good things cannot be seen by others, and making a fortune in a muffled voice is the king.

At this time, at dawn, Ao Yan quietly left the village, walked for half an hour on the wild road, and arrived at Mayfly Town before noon.

Ao Yan was a little anxious, so he took a place and shouted at the top of his voice as he had seen on TV before.

"Sell fish, sell fish, fresh big fish, cheap!"

After shouting for a while, people came and went on the street, most of them skimmed their eyes, and they didn't look at it, and Ao Yan suddenly became anxious.

"This little brother, you're late, everyone is rushing to eat at this time, how can you come to buy fish, the fish in our place is not easy to sell." The old man selling rock sugar gourds on the side leaned over and reminded kindly.

"Uncle, do you know any way to get rid of the fish quickly?"

Ao Yan rubbed his hands and smiled, this is the first time I have come, I am not familiar with life, ask more, it is right.

"Can you let the little old man see this fish?" the old man smiled kindly twice and pointed to the fish basket.

"You can weigh it, big-headed fish, it was injured when it came up, and if it takes a long time, it will die when you see the light again, don't open the cover. Ao Yan kept an eye on it.

The big-headed fish is the tarpon.

"Uh-huh. The old man nodded, stretched out his hand and pulled the strap to lift it, and immediately changed color: "Yo! It's so heavy! It is estimated that it will cost more than 20 catties, such a big tarpon is rare, and it can always be sold for two pennies a catty." Xiaoyou, don't be here, walk out of this Tianjie and turn left to Longtan Tower, even if you have such a big fish, no one wants it, just go there, little old man will go first. ”

"Then you go slowly, thank you. Ao Yan got the guidance and hurriedly packed up and went down to Longtan Tower.

Longtan Building, Tiger Cave House, and Aoki Pavilion are listed as the three major restaurants in Mayfly Town.

The cloud is in the water from the dragon in the sky, so the Longtan Building is turned into the river fresh seafood, because the master of the spoon is superb, the dishes are good-looking, the taste is delicious, and its price is quite high in the town.

In this way, there are only two kinds of people who can enter the building and enjoy.

One is powerful, the other is rich.

The building is five floors and eighteen meters high, with stone as the base and wood as the building, all painted with vermilion lacquer, and the atmosphere is magnificent.

Ao Yan looked at the coarse cloth clothes on his body, the river mud on his feet had not been washed, and the stone steps in front of Longtan Tower were clean and clean, a little shabby, thinking that he was "ranked in the immortal class", and now he went to sell fish for a living, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Hey, what are you doing!"

At this moment, a shopkeeper walked out of the door and shouted at Ao Yan.

Ao Yan looked up at this twenty-year-old young man, dressed in a neat gray cloth robe, when he looked at him, his nostrils were on him, his face was arrogant, his eyes were contemptuous, but he was not annoyed, he smiled and greeted him and said: "This big brother, I heard that Longtan Building specializes in collecting good fish, and I made up a special one to sell this morning." ”

"Selling fish?"

Xiao'er's face is suspicious, there are a lot of people who come to Longtan Building to sell fish, but if you want any fish, then this place is not a cat and a dog can enter, if you get some inferior goods, you will definitely be scolded by the shopkeeper, but if it is good, maybe it will be praised.

"Bring it to me. ”

"This fish can't see the light under the sun, you weigh it first, and if you think it's okay, call the shopkeeper to come and see it." ”

"Hey!" the child let out a strange sigh, but he didn't dare to refute.

If the fish is put for a long time, it is true that it can't shine on the sun, but the young man's tone of voice is not begging, which makes him a little unhappy, thinking that if you want me to weigh me, I will weigh it, but this fish is not more than ten catties Lao Tzu will kick you out immediately, and I have worked for a few years, brother, I have seen a lot of fish, but I have caught it very accurately, and I know what kind of fish it is when I look at the movement.

"Look at it like this, it's either silver or grass. He thought to himself.

As a result, he reached out and took the fish basket, and the fish in it snapped and jumped twice, and suddenly his color changed, and he muttered to himself: "This size, this weight, and this strength, it must be ......."

glanced at Ao Yan suspiciously, and immediately said: "Stunned, come with me to the back hall, I'll call the shopkeeper." ”

At this time, both his face and his words were extremely respectful, and he was no longer as arrogant as before.

Ao Yan nodded and followed in, and after a while, the little second came out with a middle-aged fat man.

But seeing that this person was dressed in a loose blue dark brocade robe, his complexion was fair and oily, his eyes were slit, his nose was flat, his lips were thin, and the two small mustaches on his lips were always twisted by the hand wearing a turquoise wrench, and there was always such an amiable smile on his face, which made people feel harmless to humans and animals, and was particularly close.

At first glance, Ao Yan knew that he was a smart and shrewd person.

Looking at the closed fish basket, it happened that the fish inside jumped twice, the middle-aged fat man frowned, opened his eyes, and said in surprise: "This is ...... What a mighty mandarin fish!"

After being amazed a few times, he left the fish basket and squinted his eyes again and said to Ao Yan: "I want this fish, how much do you want to sell it." ”
