185. Snow Carp



No wonder Ye Mi didn't want to go after the old man who was fishing.

This guy had a somewhat eccentric personality and often lived next to the pond outside the village. The few times Ye Mi saw him, he was always fishing.

As long as you don't disturb him fishing, he will ignore you.

The only time they communicated was when he taught him how to fish and gave him a fishing rod and ten baits.

For a person who was not often seen in the village, it was good enough that Ye Mi could remember who he was after hearing his name.

It wasn’t far anyway, and she had no other clues at the moment.

She finally got this clue, no matter whether it was true or false, she would definitely go for it.

But there was no need for Grandma Li to lie to herself, so Ye Mi was still looking forward to what surprises there would be this time.

Find the old man who lives next to the fish pond. There are few people here, and neither NPCs nor players come here often.

Next to the deserted fish pond, an isolated little wooden house stands abruptly.

Ye Mi looked around but didn't see anyone. He had no choice but to take out a fishing rod and wait while fishing at the door of the house.

I don't know if it was because she was lucky or there were many fish in this area, but in less than ten minutes, the bucket was already filled with three lively fish.

And it's a big fish.

The smallest one was as long as a thick-skinned man's arm.

"Ding-ling~"

Oh no.

Another fish.

Ye Mi narrowed his eyes, held the fishing rod with both hands, and pulled it lightly and slowly.

Finally, I took advantage of the fish's inattention and caught it directly.

"Oh my god, which little kid came here and caught my snow carp!" Ye Mi was startled when he heard the sound.

He stumbled and nearly fell into the pond.

She looked at the fish hanging on the hook and was immediately attracted by it -

This is a very beautiful fish.

Because it is completely white, even under the sunlight, you can seem to be able to see the white bones of the fish and the blood vessels that look like red lines.

When she got closer, she realized that this was not an illusion.

Because this fish is actually transparent!

The kind that is completely transparent!

Ye Mi's hand slipped, and the fish in his hand fell into the bucket and disappeared.

Ye Mi:!!!

When the old man saw this scene, he quickly put down the bucket in his hand and hurried over.

"Little girl, you are so careless. This snow carp is a rare treasure in the world. Aren't you afraid of hurting it?" The old man muttered to himself, then squatted down and reached out to search in Ye Mi's bucket.

Finally, he touched out a transparent fish.

Only then did Ye Mi realize that it was not that the fish disappeared, but that its transparent body allowed it to blend into the water.

It looks like it is invisible (those who have played with Crystal Baby can use the white Crystal Baby as a reference).

“…This is what I caught.”

Ye Mi watched the old man unceremoniously scoop up the snow carp and put it into another bucket he brought with him, and suddenly spoke.

The old man's hand trembled, and the snow carp in his hand fell into the bucket as before.

Xueli: What happened to the promise that I was a rare thing? Is this how you treat me?

Ye Mi: In my eyes, it’s just food.

"You catch fish, so what? It's okay if the old man is interested in it."

Ye Mi had no way to deal with such a naughty old man.

Not to mention that I had something to ask of him, so I could only watch him carry the bucket of snow carp into the wooden house.

His own bucket containing the fish he caught was left behind, standing alone in the distance.

"What are you standing there for? Don't you have something to talk to me about?"

Seeing that Ye Mi didn't catch up, the old man turned around and called out.

Ye Mi responded, then carried his own and his buckets and walked into the wooden house.

As she walked into the wooden house, she looked up and saw the old man took out a fish tank, then took another bucket of water and poured it out, and finally scooped up the snow carp and put it in.

The snow carp put into the water is just like an empty fish tank. Only when you look closely can you see a few red blood vessels and black eyes.

【Snow Carp】

Quality: Purple

Category: Other

Function: Can purify pollution (including but not limited to air pollution, water pollution, etc.)

Introduction: Snow carp is a rare and precious fish species in the world. Its appearance is transparent, and you can only vaguely see the blood flowing in its blood vessels. Snow carp has a strong vitality and can survive no matter how harsh the conditions are, and can also effectively improve the environment. (Introduction: Can it be eaten?)

As expected, he followed her introduction.

I wanted to go with her.

Xueli: ...I feel like my life is in danger.

Although Ye Mi had to admit that Xueli was indeed very good-looking.

But her first reaction when she saw the snow carp was that this thing would be great for making sashimi.

Transparent white fish fillet, paired with soy sauce and mustard...

Maybe this is the power of cooking frequently...

It's a pity that the old man seems to like snow carp very much, so I probably won't be able to taste it.

The snow carp, unaware that it had escaped a disaster, shook its tail and slowly made a circle in the fish tank.

"Tell me what you want to see me about."

Hearing this, Ye Mi moved his eyes away from the fish tank, then took out the ancient god map from his backpack, held it in both hands and handed it to the old man.

The moment the old man saw the parchment, he was stunned.

When he unfolded the rolled-up map, his expression suddenly turned extremely grim.

"Go away, I won't help you."

It’s not that I can’t help, but that I don’t know how to help!

This means that the old man really knows how to solve this map!

It doesn't matter if he doesn't want to, as long as you are patient, he will always be willing.

Ye Mi was delighted, "Uncle, please think about it again..."

"Don't think about it. I swore that I would never help anyone interpret a painting again in my life."

As Granny Li said before, this Mr. Zhao used to be a painter in the city.

How glorious it was for him to be a tyrant.

In addition to his superb painting skills, what is most amazing is his mysterious art of hiding paintings.

He can draw works like the Ancient God Map that require special methods to see the truth.

You can also unlock all the paintings that hide secrets.

Ye Mi didn't expect his attitude to be so decisive, and he was at a loss for a moment.

"How about if I give you this snow carp after I help me interpret the painting?"

Hearing this, the old man looked at the fish tank on the table with heartache, even though there seemed to be nothing in it.

Then he stood up, picked up the fish tank and placed it in front of Ye Mi.

"Take it, take it."

This clearly means that he would rather not have the fish than solve the painting.

Ye Mi: “…”

Ye Mi really couldn't do anything about him.

But she didn't really take the snow carp away. After all, she could see that the old man really liked this thing.

She also didn't want to do anything that would threaten others, so she didn't take the snow carp away, but left two buckets of fish and left.
