Zhang Fan looked confused; these were just ordinary river fish.
They used to be everywhere in the river in the village, but then people from the city started buying them. Ten years ago, they could sell for 100 yuan apiece, so they were caught in large numbers and are rarely seen now.
No one came to the steep south slope, so the fish were spared.
Startled, the rockfish immediately scurried inside. The woman's expression changed, and she turned around, pointing at the rockfish, saying, "This is the fish I just ate?"
Zhang Fan nodded, and the woman suddenly realized, "No wonder it tasted so good; the fish you just caught was a rockfish."
Zhang Fan nodded, and the woman's eyes lit up. She said anxiously, "Can you catch another one? I'll pay you a thousand yuan."
"I don't want to." Not knowing what this woman's purpose was, Zhang Fan did not agree.
Bai Rou'er took out a business card from her bosom, which read "Ke Lai Restaurant".
"I know you don't believe me. My name is Bai Rou'er. This is my family's restaurant. My father has a terminal illness, and he just wants to eat this fish. I searched for a long time and finally found it. I caught one, so please catch one for me, okay?"
Zhang Fan recalled how his sister-in-law had worked tirelessly in the fields to take care of him, and hadn't changed her clothes for years.
When he lost his memory, his sister-in-law bought him new clothes every year.
He's not stupid anymore; he'll earn more money in the future to repay his sister-in-law.
Zhang Fan took the money, which he could earn a thousand yuan for catching a fish, and put it in his pocket.
He grabbed a branch to spear the fish, but Bai Rou'er stopped him: "Don't panic, I need to go back and get some ice. Wait for me, don't leave."
As if afraid he would run away, Bai Rou'er took out a thousand yuan, handed it to Zhang Fan, and ran up the mountain.
Not far away is the boundary of Baijiapo, which is also one of the boundaries of the steep southern slope. A red BMW is parked halfway up the mountain. It takes about an hour to walk from there to the river.
Baijia Village is located south of Zhangjiapo, about ten miles away. The two villages have a long-standing feud and rarely interact.
Looking at Bai Rou'er's back, Zhang Fan realized that this woman was very determined. It was also good that she had a wound on her foot. He wondered what was so special about an ordinary fish.
Just then, Zhang Fan's abdomen grew hotter and hotter, and a force surged uncontrollably within him.
He quickly sat cross-legged on the spot, closed his eyes and focused all his attention on the power within his body.
