Ye Xiaoxiao smiled faintly, "It would be better if they didn't come out. That way, we can directly find the Leech King and the Golden Clam."
Dugu Xin thought so too, then stood aside without saying anything more. Shangguan Lingyun raised his hand, and everyone went into the water.
The waiting time is always long, and with nothing to do, a few people found a place to sit down and talk.
Ye Xiaoxiao asked about Dugu Xin's recent situation, and Dugu Xin told them some things about Cangwu Mountain.
Everyone was chatting and it wasn't boring for a while. After a while, there was suddenly a movement on the water.
Han Yu and Tian Xuan went over to check it out immediately, and soon they both came back at the same time.
"Master, there are suddenly many big-mouthed catfish on the water."
Ye Xiaoxiao frowned, "Where are Wang Xiao and the others? Is there any news?"
Tianxuan shook his head, "They've been submerged for a while, and there's been no movement for the time being."
Ye Xiaoxiao felt a little strange, so she stood up and walked towards the river.
Sure enough, as soon as she arrived at the river, she saw a lot of big-mouthed catfish. These catfish were much larger than the ones in her world.
However, Ye Xiaoxiao had already gotten used to the differences in the world of the book, so she wasn't too surprised.
She carefully observed the movements of the catfish and found that they seemed to be swimming in a circle.
The center of the circle was exactly where Wang Xiao and his team went into the water.
"Oh no! These catfish have discovered Wang Xiao and his group's actions. Tianxuan, quickly pull the chain."
When Wang Xiao and his companions went into the water, they tied a thin iron chain around their bodies for safety reasons and to prevent the fish from biting the ropes.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Ye Xiaoxiao did not bother to wait for Wang Xiao's signal and directly asked Tianxuan and Han Yu to help pull the chain.
However, when they pulled the chain hard, they found that it was very light, as if there was nothing tied underneath.
The chain was quickly pulled up, and sure enough, Wang Xiao and the others were nowhere to be found.
"Oh no! The chain has been chewed through. It looks like Wang Xiao and the others didn't even know there was a big-mouthed catfish on it."
Ye Xiaoxiao was a little anxious, and Dugu Xin and Shangguan Lingyun spoke to comfort her at the same time.
Shangguan Lingyun glanced at Dugu Xin, then whispered something in Ye Xiaoxiao's ear.
Ye Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, and then under the cover of Shangguan Lingyun, she quietly took out the universal storage box from the space.
Without hesitation, a single drop of blood was shed, and the Muskrat King and her kits were released.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak."
Under everyone's puzzled gaze, Ye Xiaoxiao squeaked at the Rat King, and the Musk Rat King reluctantly took its cubs directly into the water.
As soon as the Rat King went into the water, the big-mouthed catfish scattered. However, after the Rat King went down, the catfish surrounded its cubs.
Soon, a game of chase and escape began on the water. The cubs ran around with the catfish, and the previous circle soon disappeared.
The Rat King swam quickly underwater along the center of the circle.
Soon, the Rat King saw Wang Xiao and the others circling in the water, and then he bit Wang Xiao's clothes and pulled him up.
Wang Xiao was a little confused at first, but after seeing the Rat King's actions, he instantly understood something.
He gestured to the people around him, and then they all swam quickly toward the surface of the water.
When they surfaced, they found that the chains on their bodies had already broken.
Wang Xiao was startled, then he shook off the water on his body and came to Shangguan Lingyun and Ye Xiaoxiao.
"Master, what's with these catfish and these muskrats?"
Wang Xiao spoke with some doubt, and Tianxuan briefly described the abnormalities that occurred after they went into the water.
When Wang Xiao heard this, he realized that they were surrounded by a group of catfish.
"No wonder we didn't find anything after we went down. It turns out that we were tricked by these catfish as soon as we entered the water."
After Wang Xiao finished speaking, Ye Xiaoxiao let the Rat King and its cubs leave the water. Then, Ye Xiaoxiao chatted with the Rat King for a few more words.
Everyone looked at her curiously. After a long while, Ye Xiaoxiao finally spoke.
"The Rat King said he didn't see the Catfish King, nor the Golden Clam or Leech King."
"The Rat King means that if we want to find the Golden Clam and the Leech King, we must first get rid of these catfish."
Without waiting for anyone to speak, Han Yu spoke anxiously.
"With so many catfish, it's not easy to catch them all."
Ye Xiaoxiao nodded, then looked at Shangguan Lingyun and Dugu Xin.
The two looked at each other. Shangguan Lingyun didn't say anything, but Dugu Xin spoke.
“Although there are a lot of largemouth catfish, there are ways to catch them.”
"However, if we want to capture them all, we don't have enough people."
"However, although we are few in number, there are many people on the mountain."
"Not only that, in order to train the Qi Family Army, Qi Yuan also takes them into the water for training when he has nothing to do."
Ye Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, and then she looked at Shangguan Lingyun again, and Shangguan Lingyun nodded.
"It seems that we can only deal with the Qi family army on the mountain first and then come again."
"However, we need to send someone to keep an eye on this place. Xiaoxiao, since the Rat King has been released, let's keep them here for the time being."
Ye Xiaoxiao did not object. She squeaked a few times at the Rat King, and the Rat King happily disappeared with its cubs.
Dugu Xin was a little worried, "Will it run away with its cub?"
