The two young men didn't carry fish baskets; instead, each of them held a sharpened wooden stick and walked upstream.

Less than a hundred meters away, the two brothers discovered that the river channel had been netted.

Sure enough, there were quite a few fish inside.

There were seven or eight strong men on the riverbank, scooping fish out of the river with nets and butchering them.

There were more than twenty fish roasting by the bonfire next to them.

The two brothers naturally understood what was going on.

Zhao Qingbei was quite young and hadn't yet learned to be tactful.

"Brave men, have you already purchased this section of the river?"

Zhao Qingbei asked the question without thinking.

The burly man spearing the fish glared at the two brothers and said coldly, "None of your business."

Zhao Qingbei was a little annoyed. "Hey, why are you swearing?"

Zhao Qingyang tugged at his younger brother, clasped his hands in a fist and said, "I apologize, sir, but my brother is young and can't speak properly. Please don't take offense at a child like him."

My father and I came here for a picnic and would like to fork a few fish to grill.

However, it was discovered that there were very few fish, and it was difficult to collect enough for everyone to have one.

"May we have the permission to take a few pieces of meat from here? We're willing to pay."

The man spearing the fish glared at Zhao Qingyang and said, "Pay up, sure, one tael of silver per fish."

Zhao Qingyang clasped his hands in a fist salute again.

"Excuse me, gentlemen, but I really don't have that much money with me. It seems I won't be able to buy fish from you."

After saying that, he pulled Zhao Qingyi and started to walk back.

The spearfisher was unhappy.

"Did I tell you to leave? You've been dawdling around here for ages. You think you can just say you don't want to buy it and then you don't? Are you kidding me?"

Zhao Qingyang turned around and said, "Buying and selling, there's a market, but the fish is too expensive, I really can't afford it."

The purpose of this outing was to save money, so I didn't bring much with me. I only have a few dozen coins on me.

"If you don't mind, I'd be happy to buy three fish from you."

The man was unhappy.

"You little rascal, are you kidding us? Judging by your clothes, your family must be quite wealthy."

"Why don't you give us that jade pendant you're wearing as collateral? You can catch as many fish as you want here."

Zhao Qingyang gave his younger brother a push, telling him to go back and find their father.

Zhao Qingyi understood. Listening to his brother was the right thing to do. He had originally planned to use these people as practice subjects.

Since my brother told him to go back to find our father, it must be because my brother discovered that these people must be quite capable.

While Qingyang was talking to the other person, Zhao Qingyi took off running.

As soon as he ran, the men catching fish and the grilling fish vendors all started moving at the same time.

One of them went straight for Zhao Qingbei's back, while the others surrounded Zhao Qingyang.

The weapons in the hands of the two brothers were wooden sticks used for spearing fish.

Seeing the man's large knife slashing towards Qingyi's back, Zhao Qingyang was terrified and shouted, "Brother Qingyi, be careful!"

Then, he started fighting with these people.

Zhao Qingyang didn't hold back at all; he felt that these people had all seen blood.

Over the years, he has only sparred with a handful of people.

It was the first time Zhao Qingyang had fought against someone who had no moves, who just slashed horizontally and vertically, and whose every strike was deadly. He felt that he was still struggling.

After all, a wooden stick and a real sword are two different things.

An inch longer, an inch stronger; Zhao Qingyang could only use this wooden stick to defend himself at this moment.
