Chapter 3's tactic of moral blackmail—who can resist it?



Lin Hu, who had a bad temper, couldn't help but curse when he saw Wu An deliberately trying to scare them: "Wu Erzai, can't you be a decent human being!"

"They do nothing but evil all day long, and now they're even pretending to be ghosts to scare people."

"If your dad finds out, he'll yell at you through the loudspeaker."

"Can't you do something that will make your father proud?"

Previously, Old Wu angrily broadcast over the loudspeaker that he was severing ties with his son, which became a topic of conversation among the villagers, mainly used to make fun of him.

Ever since then, whenever he does anything in the village, the villagers will criticize him over the loudspeaker.

Lin Bin coughed twice and said earnestly, "Your brother Hu is right."

"Don't steal chickens or dogs anymore, and definitely don't steal fish."

"Think about how you are. How can your mother rest in peace in the afterlife?"

Wu An chuckled twice.

He was wrong to steal fish, but he also risked half his life and his reputation for the rest of his life. These two people saw him in danger and ran away on the spot. What right did they have to lecture and scold him? They were all of the same generation. They kept bringing up his parents. Even if he had lived two lives, his words were still very unpleasant to hear.

Lin Hu glared at him: "What are you laughing at?"

Wu An's smile remained unchanged: "I'm laughing because you're right."

“After listening to what you said, I intend to turn over a new leaf and start anew.”

"So, could you please offer your support?"

Lin Hu was taken aback.

The kid's change was too fast; he wasn't used to it. After a while, he asked, "Support? Support what?"

Wu An said, "As the saying goes, give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime."

"The fish you caught are delicious, I'd like to eat more."

"So I'll borrow two sets of fishing rods from you."

Lin Hu and Lin Bin's heads were buzzing.

etc.

We didn't feed them the fish; they were stolen. We didn't pursue the matter, but you're pushing your luck.

Seeing that the two remained silent, Wu An immediately intensified his attack: "What you said just now was very good, it wasn't just empty talk, was it?"

"Whether I do well or badly next depends on your decision."

"You don't want me to continue down this path, do you?"

What is moral blackmail?

Lin Hu and Lin Bin felt a chill run down their spines, as if a mountain was pressing down on their shoulders.

They were just saying it casually.

Unexpectedly, Wu An took advantage of the situation and put them on the hot seat, making it impossible for them to get off.

Having no other choice, the two could only bite the bullet and say, "We can lend it to you, but you have to pay it back."

Wu An nodded with a smile: "Of course, of course."

“I, Wu An, have turned over a new leaf. Before, I would have said whatever came to mind, but now every word I say is as good as a nail.”

"Don't worry."

The two of them took out their two worst fishing rods.

Wu An: "As the saying goes, if you're going to do something good, do it to the end. You also need bait, landing net, and fishing box, otherwise the fish I catch are too big to pull up and I'll have nowhere to put them."

Lin Hu and Lin Bin simply couldn't withstand this kind of moral blackmail.

borrow.

You can only borrow it.

Carrying their full fishing gear, Wu An and A Qing happily headed towards the beach.

Lin Bin and Lin Hu looked at each other in bewilderment.

Even though it was borrowed, they felt like they had been robbed.

I feel so sad.

"I have a feeling that Wu Erzai got even worse after he broke his head."

"Don't just think about it, that's it."

"That move was too powerful; the two of us couldn't withstand it at all."

"What if he sells our fishing gear?"

"That's hard to say."

"Then let's go and take a look."

After discussing it, the two of them also headed towards the beach.

Front.

Aqing, carrying a landing net and fishing box, asked curiously, "Brother, why are we heading towards the beach?"

Wu An countered, "If we don't go to the beach, where else can we go?"

Aqing said, "I went to town to sell them."

"It should fetch a good price."

"We can enjoy good food and drinks for several days in a row."

Wu An shook his head: "Stealing chickens and dogs is one thing, but selling these fishing tackle is a criminal offense..."

"Forget it, there's no point in talking to you about this."

"Aqing, I'm thinking of changing my way of life."

"I'll guide you to make big money in a down-to-earth way."

Aqing scratched his head, seemingly not quite understanding, but quickly realized, "I get it, brother, making a good life for us is definitely better than anything else."

"But will we be able to catch any fish?"

"..." Wu An's lips twitched, too lazy to correct A Qing's words, and confidently said, "Yes."

Ah Qing said, "Brother, you used to take me fishing. After a few days of not catching any fish, you were so angry that you sold our fishing rods. You swore that you would never fish again, and if you did, you would...you would..."

Wu An smirked, "Let's not bring up the dark history of the past."

We'll see.

What business is it of his that Wu An made the oath?

We arrived at the beach.

The tide is still coming in, and you can only see a small part of the beach, so you definitely can't fish or even go beachcombing. Luckily, we ran into the brothers Lin Bin and Lin Hu.

If he hadn't gotten those two sets of fishing gear, he would have been completely lost even if he brought Aqing to the beach.

Wu An looked around and saw that the beach led to the pier to the east and a rocky beach to the west, which was where he had fallen to his death. There were many large reefs there, which were suitable for fishing, and most of the villagers fished there.

Arriving at the rocky beach, the waves crashed against the rocks, splashing water everywhere.

The sun was at its strongest at this time. After glancing at the sun, Wu An estimated that it should be around two or three o'clock in the afternoon.

There weren't many people at the beach.

Good.

He randomly picked a large rock to stand on and was fiddling with his fishing line and hook when Aqing whispered, "Brother, Lin Bin and Lin Hu are here too."

Wu An turned his head and looked.

Lin Bin and Lin Hu were about twenty meters away from him. They found a rock and climbed up it. Lin Bin set up his fishing gear, cast his line quickly, and baited the hook. His movements were fluid and graceful, and he was deliberately showing off to him.

After Lin Hu cast his line and baited his hook, he called out to him, "Wu Erzai, you have one hour. If you don't catch any fish, you have to return your fishing gear to us."

Wu An ignored him.

After adjusting the fishing line and hook, baiting with rotten shrimp, casting the line, and slightly adjusting the reel, all that's left is to wait for the fish to bite.

After waiting for a while, nothing happened.

Aqing followed suit.

The two of them stood sideways, with a large gap between their baits to prevent the line from getting tangled when a fish bites.

Time passed second by second.

Aqing was so anxious that she scratched her head and kept glancing at Lin Bin and the other person.

Lin Bin and his companion glanced over from time to time. After Lin Hu caught the fish and pulled it up, he laughed and shouted, "Not very lucky. It took us so long to catch a small stone goby."

"Wu Erzai, Aqing, keep it up!"

"Forty minutes left."

"You don't have much time left."

Aqing asked, "Brother, what should we do?"

"Why don't we run away while they're catching fish, and sell them in town?"

"They definitely can't catch up."

Wu An sighed inwardly.

Oh, the ocean.

You're really all water.

I want to interact with you as an ordinary person.

But reality doesn't allow it.

There's no other way but to use cheats.

"Yes, this is the fishing rod. Please add all the luck to it."

Thanks.
