Xiao Ling rubbed her arm, which was covered with goose bumps, and said, "Oh, never mind whether it's a water monkey or not. Let's quickly get the jade bead and get out of this damn place!"
Zhang Meng looked at her, "We want to hurry up as you said, but none of us knows where this jasper bead is. How are we going to find it?"
Xiao Ling's eyes rolled around, and he immediately stared into her backpack. He pointed and said, "Look for Aye Ghost King. That guy must know. We just need to ask him."
At this moment, the voice of Aye Ghost King floated out coldly, "Don't ask me, I only know that the jade bead is here, but I don't know where it is exactly."
Xiao Ling immediately lowered her head, but after a moment, she raised it again, her eyes shining as she looked towards You Hui. "Big Brother, where's the jade pendant? Is it still with you? Take it out and let it shine."
You Hui shook his head. "Junior Sister, there's no need to try. The first thing I did when I got here was to take out the jade pendant and try it out, but it didn't react at all. If it weren't for Aye Ghost King and the little prodigy saying that the jade bead was here, I would have doubted it was there."
Xiao Ling was so anxious that she kept jumping up and down. "What should I do? I don't want to stay in this place anymore. I want to leave."
At this moment, Gu Mingtai said slowly, "It seems that we can't find it here during the day, so we can only wait until night. Let's stay here all night."
Xiao Ling immediately yelled, "What? I have to stay here until night? Please forgive me."
As soon as she finished speaking, a cold look shot towards her, "If you don't want to stay here for one night, that's fine. You guys can go. My wife and I will stay here for one night."
Xiao Ling was so angry that she couldn't speak and looked aggrieved.
You Hui pulled the little junior sister who was throwing a tantrum again, "Little junior sister, stop it. We will listen to Comrade Gu. We have seen Comrade Gu's ability along the way. It won't be wrong to listen to him."
Xiao Ling pouted and nodded, "Okay then, I'll stay here for one night."
Zhang Meng stretched out a hand at this time, "Well, I want to ask, since we are going to stay here, what should we do with food? All the food we prepared before was eaten by lunch today."
As soon as she said this, everyone fell silent.
"Let's eat the food from the Yin River. Isn't there fish there? Let's eat it." Gu Mingtai suddenly said. When the others heard his words, they immediately looked at him in disbelief.
"Comrade Gu, are you crazy? That's a snakehead fish, a snakehead fish that eats human souls. If we eat that kind of thing, aren't we also eating souls? I dare not eat it."
Xiao Ling shouted loudly. Zhang Meng then explained, "Comrade Xiao Ling, what you said is a little wrong. Although the snakehead fish eats souls, souls are invisible and incorporeal. Even if it ate them, the souls would have been digested by them long ago. It's just like the green vegetables we eat every day. They are also made by farmers using feces and urine. It's the same principle."
Xiao Ling's face changed. "Comrade Zhang Meng, please stop talking so disgustingly. After hearing what you said, I won't dare eat rice anymore."
Zhang Meng smiled embarrassedly and said, "You can't blame me for this. I'm just telling the truth."
At this moment, Gu Mingtai, who was standing beside her, also joined the ranks of those who supported his wife. "My wife is right. Although the food these black fish eat is a bit scary, it is a great tonic for those of us who practice Taoism. It can improve our level of cultivation."
When they heard that it was a tonic for those who practice Taoism, the eyes of the two brothers Youhui and Youwu lit up.
In today's society, there are very few natural treasures that can be used by those who practice Taoism. Take the South China Sea for example, there are not many things they can use. Young people like them are not qualified to enjoy those things at all.
"Comrade Gu, what you just said is true. Can the meat of black fish really improve the cultivation of those of us who practice Taoism?" Youhui looked at Gu Mingtai impatiently, seeking another assurance.
It would also help him believe that what he just heard was not his hallucination.
Gu Mingtai nodded and said, "I can swear on my life that if there is even one lie about what I just said, I will go to the eighteenth level of hell after I die."
When Zhang Meng heard him swearing this curse, she immediately stopped him, "Gu Mingtai, don't swear nonsense."
Unfortunately, it was too late for her in the end, and the man still swore this curse.
Seeing how he was so happy to post, Zhang Meng rolled her eyes at him in annoyance, "You are so happy to post, but why are you spouting all these poisonous oaths? Have you ever thought about me?"
Gu Mingtai didn't dare to refute what she said. He listened obediently until she finished speaking. Then he walked up to her with a flattering smile on his face and whispered, "I know that what I said is true, so I dare to swear this poisonous oath. I promise you, I won't swear poisonous oaths again next time."
Zhang Meng snorted coldly, "Will there be a next time?"
Gu Mingtai understood immediately and changed his words, "There won't be a next time. I promise, I will never make a poisonous oath again."
"That's pretty good." Zhang Meng finally showed a satisfied smile on her face.
The young couple was happy, but it was a pity for the three people next to them who were eager to know the answer.
You Hui and his three brothers and sisters waited for a long time, and finally waited until the couple was talking and laughing, then they dared to speak again, "Comrade Gu, we haven't even seen the shadow of the black fish yet. Do you know where to find it?"
