The owner of the pond knew that Ling Yun and his group were not there to fish as soon as they entered the manor.
The pond owner continued speaking:
"However, you may be disappointed. There is no treasure below the fishpond except for a sacred herb and a few pieces of water energy crystals."
"It is because of the nourishment of the sacred medicine and the water-based energy emitted by the water crystals that the sea bass here has unparalleled quality."
Throughout the conversation, the pond owner kept his eyes fixed on the fishing rod.
"You can't take the water crystal and the holy medicine, or we'll have a fight!"
Lingyun and his companions were somewhat disappointed, not expecting that this was all they had.
But they always felt that things beneath the fishpond were anything but simple.
Golden Lion Road:
"Let's go down and take a look!"
Immediately, he and the Great Sage arrived at the bottom of the pond, and sure enough, there was a sacred herb and six water energy crystals there.
Even the Great Sage's fiery eyes couldn't detect anything else unusual.
Undeterred, they ventured deep into the lava sea, even plunging into it, but still found no treasure.
The Great Sage and the Golden Lion had no choice but to return to the pavilion, shaking their heads at Lingyun and Qiongqi.
Ling Yun frowned slightly; he had always been very confident in his intuition.
But even the Great Sage couldn't find it, so perhaps he was just overthinking it.
Immediately, the Golden Lion clasped his hands in a fist salute to the pond owner and said:
"Excuse me!"
The pond owner, still looking at the fishing rod, nodded slightly and said:
"You're welcome!"
Throughout, the pond owner remained calm and composed, showing no sign of being on guard against anything.
Even with his back exposed, he remained undefended.
Such people are either detached from worldly affairs or have unparalleled confidence in their own abilities.
Or perhaps both.
Ling Yun laughed:
"Fishing is also a way of enlightenment. Since we're here, let's experience the joy of being a fisherman."
Immediately, the four of them walked towards A Bao and the others.
Just then, a cry of surprise rang out.
Suddenly, Ah Bao and his friends raised their fishing rods at the same time, and each of them caught a three-foot-long bass.
This truly astonished the group of anglers.
You should know that most of them haven't caught a bass in years.
Some lucky ones caught fish that were a foot long.
On their first visit, Ah Bao and his friends caught a three-foot-long bass.
"Wow~ These guys got incredibly lucky, catching a three-foot bass right off the bat!"
"I spent two hours in that spot today and didn't catch a single fish, while they caught one in less than fifteen minutes. What luck!"
"I must have set up the nest, no way, I have to go with them!"
"..."
Immediately afterwards, a group of fishermen moved to another spot and sat down with Ah Bao and his friends.
Half an hour later, Abao and the others simultaneously raised their fishing rods, and each of them caught a three-foot-long bass.
The fishermen, on the other hand, remained silent.
A fisherman, growing impatient, asked Abao:
"Young man, what kind of bait are you using?"
He suspected that there was something strange about the bait that Abao and his friends used.
The other fishermen all looked at Abao and his friends.
Abao took out the bait and showed it to them:
"It's the bait provided by the fishpond."
The fishpond provides bait for free for anglers who find the process too troublesome.
But these baits were nothing special.
They didn't believe it, so they carefully examined the bait and found that it was indeed bait provided by the fishpond.
Just then, Ah Bao and his friends caught a three-foot-long bass, making all the other anglers blush with envy.
Actually, it was Lingxi who was behind it. She's a master of seduction; luring carp into her trap is a piece of cake for her.
At this moment, a fisherman approached Ah Bao and said with a smile:
"Young man, I can buy your bass at a high price, 100,000 spirit stones per fish!"
This guy has a good plan. If he sells the three-foot-long bass to a restaurant, he can earn at least tens of thousands of spirit stones in profit.
Ah Bao knew exactly what these people were thinking, but he didn't refuse, since he now regarded money as dirt.
Seeing this, the group of fishermen stopped fishing and gathered around A Bao and his friends. As soon as they caught a bass, they started scrambling to give them spirit stones.
The guards at the fishpond saw this and rushed over to stop them. If this continued, all the big bass in the fishpond would be caught by Abao and his friends.
Furthermore, A Bao's behavior completely made him think of himself as the second-in-command.
Spend 300 spirit stones, but earn millions or even tens of millions of spirit stones.
"That's enough, bro!"
The guard spoke in a cold voice.
At this moment, the pond owner looked at the guard and waved his hand, saying:
"It's alright, young friends. There are no bad rules, so please don't be rude!"
Seeing how generous the pond owner was, A Bao and the others felt embarrassed to continue being the second pond owner.
He kept ten large bass for himself and then left the fishpond.
There is a restaurant ten miles away from the fishpond, which is also owned by the fishpond owner.
Once you catch a bass, you can bring it here and have the chef prepare it as steamed bass for a processing fee of 10,000 spirit stones per fish.
As a result, this restaurant became a gathering place for anglers.
The group handed the sea bass to the waiter, paid with spirit stones, and then went to their private room.
"Haha~ The sea bass feast that originally cost a million spirit stones has now not only cost us nothing, but we've actually made a lot of money."
Ah Bao said with a smug smile, "Although I now regard money as dirt, I still maintain the fine virtue of thrift."
The Crimson Phoenix said:
"Lingxi, you must eat more today! You're the biggest contributor!"
Lingxi smiled and said:
"That's right, that's right!"
Soon, the sea bass was served, and its aroma instantly filled the entire private room.
Ling Shan began tasting the dishes for everyone.
She took a small bite.
Then, without saying a word, because it was so delicious she wanted to cry, she picked up her chopsticks and began to devour it.
The others immediately followed.
After the last large sea bass was served, Golden Lion suddenly looked at the waiter, clasped his hands together in utmost reverence, and said:
"Amitabha!"
The next moment!
As if by muscle memory, the waiter immediately put his hands together in prayer.
"Good, good, good..."
Instantly, the waiter became alert and quickly said:
"Esteemed guests, I was just joking. I'm not a Buddhist monk. Please enjoy your meal."
After saying this, the waiter hurriedly left.
The Golden Lion said in a deep voice:
"This person is indeed a Buddhist martial monk."
When Da Sheng entered the restaurant, he noticed that apart from the manager, all the waiters and chefs were martial monks.
Although they disguised themselves well, they still couldn't escape the Great Sage's fiery eyes.
Golden Lion continued:
"If nothing unexpected happens, the pond owner will be one too!"
Ling Yun shook his head, "Neither the pond owner nor the shopkeeper."
He paused, then said solemnly:
"If I'm not mistaken, Buddhist warrior monks have already penetrated into all levels of Volcano City."
It is estimated that 80% of the residents of Volcano City and the surrounding cities are martial monks.
Volcano City is already their base of operations!
Upon hearing this, the Great Sage said with a solemn expression:
“They must be eliminated, but how do we separate the common people from the warrior monks?”
Without separating the parties involved, it's difficult to take action and it's easy to inadvertently harm ordinary people.
"Should I use my piercing eyes and Mo Yu's double pupils?"
Ling Yun picked up a piece of sea bass and smiled:
"It's simple: drain the pond to catch all the fish!"
