Jing Li is extremely worried now.

Qin Zhao's analysis was correct. Since the man was willing to spend thousands of coins to get him back, it meant that he should be able to bring good luck to people.

But……

He really didn't know what to do.

In his opinion, he was just an unlucky guy. In the more than one month that he had been with Qin Zhao, he had not brought any good luck to the other party.

Qin Zhao now wants him to prove it, what should he do?

The little koi spit out a string of bubbles in the water.

"Hurry up and eat, why are you still in a daze?" Qin Zhao pushed the steamed bun floating on the water in front of the little koi. The latter was in a daze for a long time before slowly swimming up and eating it.

There is definitely no one worse than Qin Zhao in this world.

They asked him to find a way to prove that he was a koi before agreeing not to send him to exchange for money, but they refused to tell him what he should do.

They say that koi bring blessings to the world, and there is no need for a mere mortal like him to interfere in such a small matter.

...It's obvious that this guy never believes in ghosts and gods.

The little koi was so worried that he couldn't eat. It was only after Qin Zhao coaxed him with soft words for a long time that he finally finished his meal.

After eating, he didn't let Qin Zhao touch his stomach, and hid under the wooden barrel to "face the wall".

I don’t know who owes whom.

Qin Zhao stood up to clean up the dishes and sighed silently.

He had said that to Xiaoyu last night because he thought the little guy looked particularly adorable and wanted to tease him a little more. If he could seize the opportunity to force him to tell the truth and meet him in human form, that would be even better.

But who knew, the little monster didn't seem to understand what he meant at all.

This silly fish.

Jing Li hadn't been in seclusion for long when someone came to his house.

He was just about to see who was coming when Qin Zhao casually picked up a wooden lid, covered the wooden barrel tightly, and moved the barrel and the lid together to the low cabinet next to him.

Jing Li: “???”

"Don't move." Hearing the little koi flapping its tail unhappily inside, Qin Zhao lowered his voice and said, "You can't be seen now. Be careful that someone comes to catch you."

Jing Li was most afraid of this now, so he stopped moving immediately.

Qin Zhao then went to open the door.

The man appeared to be in his early thirties and was also a villager of Linxi Village. His surname also seemed to be Li, but he had little contact with Qin Zhao on weekdays.

Qin Zhao wasn't even sure what his name was.

The other party didn't even enter the house. He just said, "Qin Zhao, I just came back from town. Did you know that people in town are fishing?"

Qin Zhao: "..."

Did the news spread so quickly?

Qin Zhao said calmly: "Really? I don't know."

"I knew you hadn't heard the news yet!" the neighbor chattered. "I heard from the people in town that someone is offering a reward of one thousand taels for a red carp! I can't understand the notice, but the picture on it looks exactly like the carp you saw before."

"Where's your fish? Take it out so I can take a look at it for you?"

As he spoke, he looked into the house.

Qin Zhao calmly stopped him and said calmly, "You mean that fish? I've already released it."

"Release it? That's a shame! What if it's the one they're looking for with the bounty on it?"

"I bought that fish at the market not long ago for just a few copper coins. How could it possibly be worth a fortune?" Qin Zhao said slowly. "Thank you for giving me this information. Would you like to go in and have a drink?"

After hearing what he said, the neighbor immediately lost interest and left angrily, making an excuse that he had something to do at home.

Qin Zhao closed the door and sighed silently.

What I feared finally came.

Qin Zhao hadn't previously thought the little fish had such a past, and he never minded it showing up in public. As a result, many people in Linxi Village had seen him with this little fish.

The villagers of Linxi Village love to go to the market in town to do business. Now that the news has spread to the village, there will definitely be many people like this who like to do good things.

It would be fine if they just came to remind him kindly, but I'm afraid there might be someone with bad intentions who wants to take advantage of Xiaoyu.

What to do next is indeed a troublesome matter.
