Chapter 499 What on earth did you raise? The old man is shocked!
This "monster" is three meters long, with golden scaly scales that glow a little, a sickle-like tail, scarlet eyes, and two crescent-shaped silver horns protruding from both sides of its gills. It looks extremely dangerous.
Su Mu has been stationed in Changhe for so many years, but this is the first time he has seen this kind of precious fish. With just one glance, he can tell that this precious fish is definitely a "overlord" level existence. If it is placed in the water, it will definitely be the overlord.
The old man easily lifted up this huge monster with one hand. It was hard to imagine that his shriveled arms could burst out with such amazing energy. It can be seen that this old man is definitely not as weak as he looks on the surface, he is very powerful!
The white-browed old man flicked his right hand lightly, and the precious fish was thrown onto the shore. Under the gaze of the white-browed old man, the precious fish dared not move. Even though it could jump back into the pond with a light flick, it seemed to be suppressed by the old man's aura. It lay motionless, with its body stiff on the ground, looking like it was ready to be slaughtered.
Seeing this, Su Mu raised his eyebrows. It seemed that the precious fish in this pond were very afraid of the old man with white eyebrows?
“This fish is quite peculiar.”
Su Mu looked the precious fish up and down and said with a smile.
Hearing this, the white-browed old man asked in surprise, "Fellow Daoist, have you never seen it?"
“It’s indeed the first time I’ve seen it.”
After saying this, the white-browed old man slowly said, "That's normal. This kind of fish is basically extinct. There may be less than five left in the entire river."
Hearing this, Su Mu was stunned.
This old man Yang is not simple. There are only five fish in this huge river, but he managed to catch one. How come he didn't encounter such a good thing? ?
Logically speaking, since he guards and refines this river, the ownership of all the precious fish in this river belongs to him alone.
Because this fish must have been caught by Old Man Yang from the main river outside and raised here.
Although I'm envious, I can't be so stingy as to ask him for it back. That would be too narrow-minded.
At this moment, Su Mu seemed to finally understand the psychological process of those black pit bosses. It was really painful to see the precious fish being caught by some professional anglers!
The old man with white eyebrows also noticed Su Mu's expression, pointed at the pond and said with a smile: "Brother Su, let's do this."
"Go ahead and fish. Whatever you catch, you can take it all away."
Although he found and raised these fish himself, he was more or less grateful to Su Mu for helping him, because he didn't know to what extent Su Mu had controlled the river of time, so he had to take care of these social etiquettes.
These words suddenly aroused Su Mu's interest.
At first he just wanted to use fishing to trick old man Yang into talking, but when he saw that old man Yang had so many good fish and precious carps in his pond, he became interested.
Now that things have come to this, I would be letting him down if I don’t give him a big helping hand!
The old man with white eyebrows patted the precious fish on the head, signaling it not to be afraid, and then put it back into the water.
Then, Su Mu raised the fishing rod, replaced the bait with a new one, and went back into the water.
But after waiting for a long time, the old man with white eyebrows had already caught the second and third fish, but there was still no movement from Su Mu.
Su Mu was almost mad.
This old man Yang used a broken locust leaf to hang up the fish, while others used their own "technology and hard goods" but could not catch a single fish.
Do the fish in this pond usually eat rotten leaves and mud?
Can you show some backbone?
You are ferocious beasts!
At this time, the white-browed old man on the side couldn't stand it anymore and asked tentatively: "Brother Su, do you want to exchange me for bait?"
Hearing this, Su Mu became even more unhappy and waved his hand, saying, "No need."
Hearing this, the old man with white eyebrows smiled and said, "To be honest with you, Brother Su, the fish in my pond have all been trained by me. They will not eat other baits. Even treasures are difficult to catch."
He was still tactful and said it was difficult to catch it, but in fact it was impossible to catch it.
If Su Mu really used his method and his own bait to catch the fish, wouldn't all his planning and efforts over the years become a joke?
Doesn't it mean that anyone who comes here can affect the things in your pond?
And just like that, another hour passed.
During this hour, the old man with white eyebrows caught a total of ten fish, which was considered a good catch. After taking a break and releasing the fish, he continued fishing slowly.
But Su Mu didn't even take a bite of the fish, let alone catch it for a whole hour, nor did he even smell it.
Is my own bait really that bad? !
"Brother Su, try my bait."
As he spoke, the old man with white eyebrows tore off a locust leaf, handed it to Su Mu, and said with a smile: "You can catch it with this."
This relaxed tone sounded full of sarcasm to Su Mu's ears!
Looking at the leaves of the locust tree, Su Mu began to think, could it be that the fish in this pond really only like to eat leaves? ?
Then, he found leaves of various precious trees in his Dantian space.
These leaves are all from top-grade precious trees, and are considered to be great medicine.
After trying dozens of methods, all ended in failure.
This confused Su Mu. He didn't know what went wrong.
Is it true that I won’t come back empty-handed today?
It’s okay to be in the Air Force, but the main thing is that it’s too embarrassing. Someone used a rotten locust leaf to pin him to the ground and beat him, which gave Su Mu the feeling that he was a poor student with a lot of stationery.
"Brother Su, seriously, you should use mine, otherwise you won't be able to catch it."
The old man with white eyebrows continued to hand the locust leaves in his hand to Su Mu.
Seeing this, Su Mu took the locust leaf, held it in his hand and looked at it carefully, and found that this locust leaf was indeed an ordinary locust leaf!
It couldn’t be more ordinary!
The leaves I use are all from top-quality precious trees, yet they are not as good as this rotten leaf?
However, after looking at it carefully, Su Mu finally discovered something strange.
The only special thing about this locust tree leaf is that it bears the scent of the white-browed old man.
Could it be that the precious fish in this pond have really been trained by him to the point where they can be caught with a rotten leaf that has his scent on it? ?
At this moment, he suddenly thought of something.
He returned the locust leaves to the old man with white eyebrows.
Then, he looked inward at his own Dantian world, his eyes fixed on the black and white sacred tree growing in the Dantian world.
Today, the black and white sacred tree has grown to two and a half meters tall, and each of its leaves is also black and white, half white and half black.
He thought about it and picked up a black and white leaf.
As he opened his eyes, a black and white leaf appeared in his palm.
When the white-browed old man saw the black and white leaves on Su Mu's palm, he froze in place.
This familiar aura of origin, could it be? !
