The ink line shot out three feet.
But just when Su Mo was about to retract the ink line, the ink wheel suddenly started to turn again, and the ink line actually released by itself.
This is naturally caused by hitting the fish, which drags the reel to rotate.
Fu Xiaoguan was also stunned. What good luck! I haven't caught a single fish here, but the eldest brother shot one.
"Tsk tsk tsk, get it ready, let's cook it tonight."
Gao Xian was swimming desperately underwater, but he suddenly stopped and remembered that he had to pull this thing out.
But when he pulled it gently with his hand, he grimaced in pain - what the hell, this thing has a reverse blade inside!
He drew the sword from his waist and chopped at the rope, but it didn't break!
He grabbed the rope and cut it vigorously with his sword. After a few breaths, he looked again - what the hell is this? After all this time, there's not even a trace left.
Su Mo, who was standing on the platform, saw that the reel was not moving, so he turned the handle and pulled it. The spool in Gao Xian's stomach tightened. Oh my God... Gao Xian was in so much pain that he burst into tears.
He hurriedly grabbed the string and pulled it hard -
Senior Brother Su Jue's face lit up with joy, "This is a big one!"
"But be careful not to get off the hook."
"I can't take it off. Wait for the eldest brother to slip it over."
So Gao Xian ran underwater pulling the line, while the eldest brother stood on the platform and let out the line steadily.
Seeing that the ten-foot line was almost used up, but the fish under the water did not seem to be exhausted, the eldest brother was puzzled. What kind of fish was this?
Based on his experience of catching fish in the Taoist temple, this must be a big fish.
So he simply flew up and floated over Xuanwu Lake, letting the fish run wherever it wanted.
The fish is running towards the shore.
You stupid fish, if you don’t run to the deep water in the center of the lake, aren’t you courting death?
Zhou Tongtong also happened to arrive at Xuanwu Lake. He looked up and saw that tall black crown standing out against the white snow - no, it was Su Jue, the senior brother from the Taoist academy, what was he doing?
Zhou Tongtong didn't understand, so he walked towards the shore to see what Su Jue was up to.
Su Jue followed slowly. Fu Xiaoguan saw that Su Jue was getting farther and farther away, so he took a deep breath and used his third-rate Qinggong to fly towards the shore.
This was about thirty feet away, and poor Fu Xiaoguan could only fly about ten feet with one breath of true energy, so his body fell in the air, and he shouted, "Big Brother, catch me!"
The eldest brother was startled. He tapped the surface of the lake with his toes and flew towards Fu Xiaoguan with the inkstone in hand.
The pull was of course extremely powerful. Gao Xian, who was underwater, groaned, staggered a few steps, and was pulled back, following the ink line and running wildly underwater.
Su Jue caught Fu Xiaoguan when he almost fell into the water, and then threw him to the shore. Fu Xiaoguan flew out and landed on the shore, just in time to see Zhou Tongtong's stunned expression.
As soon as the string in Su Jue's hand loosened, Gao Xian turned around and ran towards the lakeshore.
Su Jue followed all the way and also landed on the lakeshore.
"This guy definitely can't get away. He weighs at least 200 kilograms!"
"No, what are you doing...?"
"Oh, my eldest brother shot a big fish. Come to dinner tonight, it's a good time to have a drink."
Zhou Tongtong grinned, "I'll come and have a drink with you when I catch Gao Xian leaving."
He was about to leave when he said this, but he suddenly turned around and widened his eyes.
"Crash..."
A man emerged from the lake!
The man stepped onto the shore, dripping wet. The long sword in his hand suddenly flashed, and with a fierce swing, he slashed at the ink line again.
No, didn’t the eldest brother shoot a fish?
This guy is actually a person!
It's so cold, what is this guy doing at the bottom of the lake?
But then Fu Xiaoguan heard Zhou Tongtong yell, "Gao Xian!"
Gao Xian threw his wet hair back and used all his strength on the sword, but still failed to cut the damn thread.
The eldest brother was also shocked. Gao Xian?
The great eunuch Gao Xian of the Wu Dynasty?
Fu Xiaoguan was dumbfounded. How could this be such a coincidence?
But when he looked closely, he knew who else it could be but Gao Xian.
He laughed heartily, pointing at Gao Xian and saying, "You're a typical example of someone who doesn't take the road to heaven and then falls into hell!"
There's nothing good about this fight.
Zhou Tongtong was half a step away from becoming a Saint, while his eldest senior brother was already a Saint, only slightly above the peak of the first-rate level. The key point was that the ink cone was still in his abdomen, and he didn't even have a chance to run.
Gao Xian was also in despair. He had traveled more than 3,000 miles, and thirty embroidered clothes masters died on the road before he escaped Zhou Tongtong's pursuit.
I had thought that even if Zhou Tongtong had extraordinary abilities, he wouldn't be able to find me by hiding under this Xuanwu Lake. However, I hadn't expected that the Taoist academy's senior brother would be so powerful.
Gao Xian always thought that the turtle breathing technique he performed at the bottom of the lake was discovered by the senior brother of the Taoist temple, otherwise how could such a coincidence happen?
So he had no intention of resisting his senior brother, not to mention that there was Zhou Tongtong by his side.
The eldest brother was very happy at this moment. He thought he had shot a fish, but it turned out to be a big fish!
Gao Xian came here to assassinate my junior fellow apprentice. If he hadn't been accidentally shot, he would have been hiding under the water and suddenly emerged one day. The threat would have been truly formidable.
Perhaps, this is luck, the great luck of my junior brother!
Zhou Tongtong took action immediately. He pointed his finger at Gao Xian's dantian. Gao Xian let out a pig-slaughtering howl, and all his cultivation was wasted.
Zhou Tongtong extended three more fingers and blocked three acupoints of Gao Xian, making it impossible for Gao Xian to even commit suicide.
The three of them took Gao Xian back to Fu's house. Zhou Tongtong tied Gao Xian up but did not interrogate him.
He bowed to his senior brother Su Jue and said, "I am Zhou Tongtong of the Wu Dynasty Tianji Pavilion. I owe you a huge favor."
Su Jue straightened his hat and returned the greeting, "Master Zhou, you are too polite. This... is really an accident."
"Congratulations, Senior Brother, for reaching the Saint level."
"Master Zhou is not far away."
Fu Xiaoguan looked at the eldest senior brother in shock—he has reached the Saint level already?
The wound from that sword was worth it!
Is Zhou Tongtong about to enter the Saint level this year?
There are more and more saint levels, but I am still just a third-rate loser... Did I get the priorities wrong? Should I put martial arts training first?
Zhou Tongtong looked at Fu Xiaoguan again and bowed as well: "Your Highness... Please forgive me for being blunt, but you are not cut out for martial arts."
Fu Xiaoguan was deeply shocked, but then he heard Zhou Tongtong say, "Your Highness is a man of great talent! I have already captured Gao Xian. I will take my leave now and see you again in Guanyun City someday."
Zhou Tongtong took Gao Xian away. The eldest brother placed the inkstone in Fu Xiaoguan's hand and added very cautiously: "What Mr. Zhou said is correct!"
