Chapter 167 Casting the Golden Hook to Catch Aofish
Chapter 167: Casting the golden hook to catch trout
In the depths of the lotus pond, there are green leaves and water, red lotuses flowing, gulls and herons cruising, fish and shrimp playing, it is a lively place.
A woman was holding a small basket, standing on a piece of duckweed, crossing the water waves, and drifting deep into the lotus flowers.
The woman's black hair is like clouds, her skin is white and rosy, and her face is delicate and pretty, which complements the water hibiscus in the pool and adds to her brilliance.
Looking through the thick green leaves, the woman called out: "Mr. Camel."
Under a huge lotus leaf, a section of dead wood floated. There was a thin-looking man in Tsing Yi sitting cross-legged on the dead wood, holding a book in his left hand, concentrating on reading.
But his right hand was mutilated, leaving only an empty sleeve.
Hearing the woman calling him, the hunchback man put down his book and said, "So it's Mr. Ju, what time is it?"
The woman bowed to the throne and smiled and said: "The time has come. Sir, you can leave for Jianzhou. This lotus pond will be left to them young people." Although she is young, her tone of voice is not young at all.
Mr. Tuo moved his fingers, closed the book, and frowned: "Is it time now? But the person I'm waiting for hasn't arrived yet."
Chief Ju said: "Who are you waiting for, sir? Why don't you go to Jianzhou first? You will be indispensable there as a sacrificial wine. We Longyuan disciples are waiting here, and we will never neglect your friend."
Mr. Tuo sighed: "If we were friends, I would naturally leave it to you. But it's a pity that we are not friends."
Ju Shouzuo's heart moved: If he is not a friend, could he be an enemy?
What are you doing waiting for the enemy?
Thinking of this, her smile faded a bit and she said: "Mr. Tuo, this time the Fu Conference will be held for the first time by me, Long Yuan, after returning to the world. It must be a successful, perfect, and world-shattering conference."
.”
Mr. Tuo smiled and said: "Of course, of course it's shocking. If it wasn't shocking, you wouldn't have invited me here. I'm afraid that my theory is too shocking and will turn the world of Talisman masters upside down and cause you trouble."
Chief Ju said: "It doesn't matter. On the Dharma teaching platform, speakers are free to speak. You can say whatever you want. We are looking forward to your earth-shaking."
Long Yuan held the conference just to attract everyone's attention and focus on himself. If he just wanted to go smoothly and make it grand and colorful, he would not invite this Talisman Sword Master to give lectures. Although Long Yuan is not as good as in the past, his ancestors left
I still have a bit of face, even if I am a swordsmith ten times more powerful than Mr. Tuo, I can't find him.
The reason why I invited him was not because he was independent, had violent opinions, and was willing to express violent opinions.
No matter how outrageous and outrageous the argument was, Long Yuan didn't care. He would argue with others about what Mr. Tuo said. Long Yuan had nothing to do with it. As long as it could throw a bomb into the peaceful world of swordsmiths, it would cause widespread discussion and even form a storm of public opinion.
, and just mention Fu Hui often when discussing.
Flow is very important.
Of course, such violent remarks must be supported by something, and they cannot be just nonsense. It would be bad if they were criticized on the spot and refuted one by one, so that they could not even be spread around the venue and became a big joke.
Ju waited for a moment, pressed his hands slightly, and the lotus leaves around him swayed gently, intertwining with each other, forming a large green barrier, and said: "Mr. Tuo, there are no outsiders here, can you tell me who you are waiting for?"
Seeing that Mr. Tuo was lost in thought, she said: "Now all the participants from the seven major forces have arrived. The Ouye clan has moved to Tianwaitian, so they probably won't come. The Yuanji Palace in Beihai has not been reached yet. The other Mogan Peaks,
Xuan Suzhai, Yitian Pavilion, Feng Family and the second-class Feitian Cave, Painted Bone Building, Qingqu Academy..."
She took the trouble to tell the names one by one, just to observe Mr. Tuo's expression and see who had a grudge against Mr. Tuo. She told all the big forces, but the person opposite was unmoved and suddenly frowned and said: "In your capacity,
You won’t go for the small forces, right? The younger generation of the small forces don’t have the leadership of their elders, so it would be unavoidable for you to get entangled with them..."
Ms. Ju has a straightforward temperament. If Mr. Hunchback hadn't been an important guest, she would have said the words "the big one bullies the small ones".
Mr. Tuo said calmly: "If it were an ordinary grudge, I would not bully the small. But the old grudges were not trivial - so I had to collect some interest first." He glanced sideways at his empty right shoulder.
Ju Shouzuo understood clearly that this hatred seemed to be related to Mr. Tuo's lost arm. The hatred of the missing limbs was truly a life-and-death affair.
The hand of a skilled swordsmith is even more precious than the hand of a swordsman.
But she still wanted to say: "Since you have a grudge against their adults and know the enemy's sect, why don't you come to the door to retaliate face to face, instead of making trouble for the children here? Can't you beat them?"
It's a pity that she is older now, and she is no longer as unscrupulous and outspoken as she was when she was young.
She said coldly: "I, Long Yuan, have put a lot of effort into this meeting, and I really don't want to cause discord at the meeting."
Even if there are shady things, don't bring it to light.
Mr. Tuo said gently: "Of course, I will do it on the road. It should be in Maze City. All the spiritual fish in this pond are mine. Once the person I am looking for catches the spiritual fish, I will naturally know their whereabouts. Wait for him
When we get to Labyrinth City, I will hide my identity and attack quickly, without involving anyone else. Maybe I can even add some atmosphere to your carefully arranged screening."
Ju Zuozuo stopped talking, but thought in his heart: It would be better if this matter was not exposed, but if it were exposed, wouldn't it become a huge scandal? Fuhui sacrificed wine and changed its appearance to bully young students halfway. This Fuhui should not shock the world, and just make people laugh.
Already.
No, she also went to have a look, to see who Mr. Hunchback was looking for.
At this time, an egret walked out from behind the lotus. Its snow-white feathers were soft and pure, shining in the sun.
Suddenly, a bloody mouth appeared from behind and swallowed the egret in one bite!
The poor egret didn't have time to crow before it died, and had already fallen into the monster's mouth.
It was actually the dead tree under Mr. Tuo's body. It suddenly pulled out of the water. Where was the dead tree? It was clearly a crocodile!
"Have a good meal." Mr. Tuo smiled solemnly and said, "I hate water birds the most! Especially the white ones!"
"coming?"
"coming."
Tang Zhao was holding a fish basket and sitting by the pond. Next to him was Jiang Shenyi, who had already put down the bait.
Jiang Shenyi stared at the fish float and said: "I didn't expect you to be the last. If there was a speed competition, you would be the last one."
"Huh? Che Sha and the others are here too?" Tang Zhao was surprised that there were only the two of them on this shore. There was a single weak scholar further ahead, and there was no one else.
Jiang Shenyi smiled and said: "They came earlier than me. Over there -" He pointed to the other side, where the lotus leaves and pavilions blocked the view like a screen, "It is said that there are many fish there, but there are not many people there."
There are too many. I thought it was crowded, so I ran here. Are you too busy to be spoiled for choice by coming so late?"
Tang Zhao hung the homemade talisman leaf under the fishhook, lowered it to the water, and said: "It has indeed taken a long time to make a decision, but the time is limited, so we can't hesitate too much."
After all, the number of places is limited, first come first served, and if you come late, you can let your imagination run wild, and if there are no spiritual fish for you to catch, it will be in vain.
"Actually, it's not difficult to choose a unique talisman that others don't know. But I always feel that this is not the test. No matter how remote and complicated it is, who can't follow it? At most, it's just people playing cards outside.
Level. If you really want to test your skills, changes in symbol patterns, combinations and innovative ideas should be more important."
Jiang Shenyi nodded and said, "Heroes see the same thing. I originally wanted to use the thunder tribulation talisman, but then I ended up using the wind and thunder hybrid talisman."
Jiang Shenyi spends most of his time on those wings, and is best at the changes and coordination of wind and thunder. Even Xue Xianyun may not be better than him in this aspect.
Tang Zhao said: "Yeah. I tried to use the chain thunder talisman. It's the one we studied on the way."
"Um...don't you need a terminating fountain?"
Tang Zhaodao: "It's different. I tried to use rests that can rest - but I couldn't string so many thunder talismans, and I couldn't write one dollar talisman on the page, so I wrote three thunder talismans, which was pretty successful. In fact, I still have one more
idea……"
The two chatted casually and did not betray anyone. The Fuhui was originally a place for mutual communication. The unique knowledge and techniques could be kept secret, but some theoretical discussions were better left open. The more the arguments were made, the clearer they became. Maybe they were just guessing when they came.
An idea can, over time, become the source of a system.
Not far away, the weak scholar who was more elegant than Tang Zhao glanced sideways several times and seemed very interested, but in the end he did not come forward to discuss it.
"Ah, I caught it!"
A familiar voice came. Tang Zhao pushed aside the lotus leaf and looked around, and saw Che Sha holding a loach, jumping up and down.
Although the loach has an unattractive appearance, it is definitely a spiritual fish - who is a serious fish chewing the talisman page?
Tang Zhao and Jiang Shenyi couldn't help but congratulate themselves when they saw that Wusuntong had caught his own spiritual fish, a large-mouthed catfish, and it was spinning in the fish basket.
The two returned to their seats and couldn't help but look at each other.
"Senior brother, how long does it take for a normal spirit fish to take the bait?"
Jiang Shenyi frowned and said, "I don't know. Some are long, some are short, and some people catch them quickly. It seems that some people don't believe it all day and night."
There should be no chance at all...
At this time, the weak scholar next to him said: "Young man has been fishing all day and has not yet harvested anything."
Tang Zhao and Jiang Shenyi were both a little embarrassed, and just as they were wondering if they wanted to comfort each other, the scholar already said: "But I firmly believe that if the clouds clear and the moon shines brightly, I will surely catch a golden fish in the end, even if it takes a long time!"
Jiang Shenyi praised: "Brother, you are ambitious!"
As he was talking, his fish float moved.
"I'm hit!"
Jiang Shenyi was high-spirited, swinging his sleeves and lifting his pole in a cool posture. If Tang Zhao hadn't blocked him, he could have turned 360 degrees.
I saw water splashing everywhere, and there was a small round-headed fish caught on the hook...
turtle.
"puff--"
Tang Zhao laughed out loud.
Jiang Shenyi was stunned for a moment, pursed his lips, and suddenly turned around and said, "Why are you laughing?"
Tang Zhao immediately said: "I didn't laugh."
Jiang Shenyi hummed: "The turtle is an auspicious beast, just like the unicorn, dragon and phoenix. The golden scales still need to jump over the dragon gate. My turtle is now a mythical beast. What's wrong with it?"
Tang Zhao said repeatedly: "Well... ok, very good! Especially with senior brother, it is a perfect match."
Jiang Shenyi stared at him and asked, "Then why are you still laughing?"
Tang Zhao said: "I'm not laughing. I study to nourish my energy, and I usually don't laugh unless..."
"puff--"
Jiang Shenyi jumped up, picked up the turtle, and said, "Just wait, I want to see what you catch!"
Just as he was talking, the water surface became rippled, and a golden thread was seen rushing towards this direction in the blue waves. Everyone's eyes were focused on it.
Tang Zhao's fish bobber shook immediately, and he lifted it up——
The water surface boiled, and then a huge figure rose from the water waves...
Big turtle.
"Ah! I caught it!"
The sound came from the side, Tang Zhao and Jiang Shenyi turned their heads at the same time, and saw the young scholar jumping up, the golden scales on the fishing line sparkling.
