Chapter 6: Plotting

Chu Chu Danqing discovered that he had truly underestimated Dabao. With one lunge, he grabbed the giant salamander's neck and dragged it down from the eaves on the spot.

He forcibly broke its neck, the whole process being extremely crisp and neat, killing it instantly.

"Hehe... can eat the meat of the bad thing's son again." Dabao happily dragged the giant salamander in.

At this moment, Chu Chu Danqing finally saw the appearance of this giant salamander clearly. Its head was similar to a normal giant salamander, but its neck was extremely slender and flexible.

As for the body, it was a giant salamander's body, but the size was at least as big as a person.

Its four limbs had sharp claws, and its body was covered with a layer of scales between crocodile skin and fish scales.

Chu Chu Danqing leaned over and looked carefully; the scales were very hard.

If the two wolves from before had been replaced by this giant salamander, Chu Chu Danqing wouldn't have been able to kill it even with a pitchfork.

"It's the son of the bad thing? How big is that bad thing?" Chu Chu Danqing learned from Big Treasure's mouth that it was the offspring of the White Dragon Fish, one of the three sights of Xianghua.

Although giant salamanders are also called "baby fish," they belong to amphibians.

"A little bit bigger than me." Dabao described it to Chu Chu Danqing with his hands and feet in a silly way.

Chu Chu Danqing was thinking about one thing.

The Bai Longyu's offspring seemed very suitable to be used as a summoned object.

Amphibious, flexible, powerful, and also having enough defensive ability, it looked very versatile.

It was much more reliable than the dog or cow he had originally thought of finding in the village.

As for using the Bai Longyu directly, that wasn't realistic. As one of the three sights, the Bai Longyu's strength was at least on par with Dabao's.

Not to mention the Bai Longyu was a monster; favorability wouldn't work, and he was also the disadvantaged party in terms of attribute gap.

Since there were offspring, whether born from eggs or live birth, there would be a young stage; he only needed one cub.

"Then that bad thing and you, who is more powerful?" Chu Chu Danqing continued to ask.

Dabao heard this, and his tone was filled with frustration: "The bad thing is more powerful, unless it has been on land for a long time."

"But it is very cunning; every time it gives birth to a son, it lets its son come ashore."

Chu Chu Danqing immediately noted it down; the weakness was that it couldn't leave the water for too long.

He was thinking about whether he could find a way to get rid of this Bai Longyu.

The evaluation would definitely improve, and there was a good chance of obtaining a treasure chest.

"In other words, if you want to get rid of this bad thing, you must first kill all its sons, and then trick it ashore, right?" Chu Chu Danqing summarized.

Before Dabao could answer, the Village Chief hurried over.

With such a big commotion, he hadn't slept either, and he didn't come slowly.

"This evil beast, its nose is still so sharp, actually letting a small evil beast crawl over." As soon as the Village Chief arrived, he saw the Bai Longyu's offspring.

He looked embarrassed and said to Chu Chu Danqing: "Zhao Xiaoge Chu, I'm really sorry, this is a long story..."

The Village Chief quickly told Chu Chu Danqing about the Bai Longyu.

The Bai Longyu liked to eat people, but because Dabao was there, the Bai Longyu didn't dare to be too unscrupulous toward the villagers.

However, Chu Chu Danqing was a stranger from out of town, which was exactly what it wanted.

"The Village Chief means, I'm being targeted now?" Chu Chu Danqing felt there was a lot of room for maneuver.

"Yes, how about this, let Dabao protect you these few days, so this evil beast doesn't mess around." The Village Chief made the decision directly.

However, Chu Chu Danqing refused: "Village Chief, isn't this just right?"

"I'll act as bait to help our Xianghua Village get rid of this evil beast."

It wasn't that Chu Chu Danqing was sacrificing himself for others, but because he knew the principle of "you reap what you sow."

With the Village Chief's words, having Dabao protect him for the remaining few days, the extremely easy difficulty was truly embodied.

As long as he was thick-skinned enough, passing the reserve assessment wouldn't be a problem.

However, with such a good foundation and start, how could he be willing to stop here?

"No, no, absolutely not. The Bai Longyu is extremely cunning, and Zhao Xiaoge Chu is my family's benefactor; how can I let you take risks?" The Village Chief looked surprised but shook his head repeatedly in refusal.

Chu Chu Danqing was firm in his tone. His own hard power wasn't enough; only by borrowing strength was it most suitable for his situation.

"Village Chief, don't be in a hurry to refuse, listen to me..." Chu Chu Danqing definitely wouldn't give up so easily.

Then he briefly stated the plan, which was actually very simple: bait combined with traps, combined with the layout of environmental utilization.

Old hunters all knew it, but the shortcoming was that the Bai Longyu was cunning and wouldn't take the bait.

And Chu Chu Danqing's arrival just happened to make up for the lack of bait.

There was definitely danger, but with his five-dimensional attributes and the consumable item Wolf Blood, his life was still guaranteed.

If he wasn't willing to take any risks but wanted benefits, wouldn't that be too wishful thinking?

"This... this..." The Village Chief was also conflicted. Their village hadn't had outsiders before, but Chu Chu Danqing was the only one truly willing to cooperate.

"Village Chief, don't 'this' anymore. Block the upstream like this, then divert the water to force it out."

"Kill the descendants of this evil beast, starve it, and when I provoke it, lure it ashore to make it lack water."

"At that time, swarm it and beat this evil beast into meat paste directly."

"Eliminating this harm, we won't have to worry about anyone being dragged into the water and eaten in the future, and it will make the river's produce abundant for our Xianghua Village."

Hearing Chu Chu Danqing say this, the Village Chief was truly moved.

Before the Bai Longyu came, this river in Xianghua Village was indeed one of their sources of income.

"Good, I will shamelessly agree to this matter."

"Our Xianghua Village will remember Zhao Xiaoge Chu's intentions. After eliminating this evil beast, there will definitely be a generous reward!" Seeing Chu Chu Danqing's tone and attitude, the Village Chief understood it wasn't fake.

However, he didn't intend to let Chu Chu Danqing take risks alone; naturally, he had to prepare for him.

Chu Chu Danqing originally thought about borrowing Dabao's strength, but soon realized that the real momentum was probably Xianghua Village itself.

The individual strength of the villagers wasn't as good as Dabao's, but the combination of resources, hands-on ability, etc., was definitely not low.

It just so happened that he had a friendship with the Village Chief, which matched up.

"Village Chief, you are being too polite. It was this evil beast that wanted my life first; if you ask me, I should thank everyone in Xianghua Village for venting my anger." Chu Chu Danqing understood the art of speaking.

He had contributions, the villagers had contributions; if he said it nicely, everyone would feel comfortable.

The Village Chief was also at a loss for words by Chu Chu Danqing.

He could only secretly sigh that scholars were different.

"However, Brother Dabao must be with me for a period of time." Chu Chu Danqing looked at the energetic Dabao, who was clearly thinking about how to eat this Bai Longyu offspring.

"It should be; Zhao Xiaoge Chu is also taking risks." The Village Chief made the decision for Dabao directly.
