Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Watching the number of fish he caught increase more and more, Xu Zhangqing was very surprised.

Unexpectedly, spirit rice wine actually had this kind of effect.

It really was an unexpected discovery.

"Haha... this time when I go back I can boast for a year." Hu Bugui laughed with a wide grin.

Although there had previously been no air force, the number had always been not many.

As a result, this time it exploded.

In just a short while, nearly a hundred Big White Carps were caught.

Xu Zhangqing looked toward the opposite bank of the river, and suddenly froze.

The person opposite seemed to have given up the idea of fishing.

Holding a fishing rod in one hand.

Pulling a fishing net in the other hand.

Step by step, he walked through the water toward them.

In no time at all, he was already within arm's reach.

Just like that, the three of them stared at each other.

You look at me.

I look at you.

For a while, no one spoke.

The atmosphere became more and more awkward.

"That..." After a full while, Zhao Ziyue was the first to speak up.

"Something the matter?" Hu Bugui sized up the other party with a face full of alertness.

Zhao Ziyue gave an awkward smile: "May I ask what bait you're using?"

"No." Hu Bugui decisively refused.

Taking advantage of the other party's inattention, Xu Zhangqing secretly put the spirit rice wine into a Small Storage Bag.

Instantly, only a faint scent of wine remained in the surrounding area.

Besides that, there was also a half-ripe watermelon.

Seeing that the two were somewhat alert, Zhao Ziyue knew his earlier question had been a bit excessive, so he waved his hand: "Fellow cultivators, don't misunderstand; we're not trying to steal your bait, purely curious."

Xu Zhangqing spoke: "We're not acquainted with you, so why should we tell you."

Zhao Ziyue suddenly understood, then introduced himself: "I am surnamed Zhao, named Ziyue, have awakened a Water Spirit Root, and am a Foundation Establishment Disciple of the Water Control Pavilion."

Upon hearing this, Xu Zhangqing and Hu Bugui were both startled in their hearts.

Good fellow, he's actually a Foundation Establishment Stage fishing old-timer.

No wonder he can walk on water.

"Who are the two of you?" Zhao Ziyue blinked his eyes.

Hu Bugui was a bit confused; seeing this, he grinned and introduced himself: "So you're Foundation Establishment Stage Senior Brother Zhao. I am Hu Bugui, a Formal Disciple of Ling Beast Valley, and this is Xu Zhangqing, a Formal Disciple of Spirit Field."

Xu Zhangqing frowned slightly; why did this guy reveal his true information?

What if the other party harbored ill intentions?

Indeed, drinking harms people.

It seems next time I can't bring spirit rice wine when going out.

Zhao Ziyue nodded slightly: "Greetings, Junior Brothers. If you don't mind, may I join you?"

"Huh?" Xu Zhangqing and Hu Bugui were very surprised.

Zhao Ziyue shrugged his shoulders with a helpless expression: "There are no more fish on my side."

"Fine, of course fine." Hu Bugui did not refuse this time.

Xu Zhangqing saw this in his eyes, not knowing what this guy was thinking in his heart.

The other party was, after all, a stranger.

Fortunately, he had already put away the spirit rice wine in advance.

Next, Zhao Ziyue truly chose a spot beside them.

And fished together with them.

But because there was no spirit rice wine to continue using as bait.

So during the time afterward, none of the three caught several fish.

Seeing that the time had come to afternoon, Zhao Ziyue held a half-ripe watermelon in his hands and asked: "I don't know if the two Junior Brothers know of 【Black Dragon Pool】?"

"Black Dragon Pool?" Xu Zhangqing looked completely bewildered.

Hu Bugui, however, stared wide-eyed: "Is it the 【Black Dragon Pool】 at the border between Spirit Field and Ling Beast Valley, the one said in legend to have a demon dragon emerging from it?"

"Correct." Zhao Ziyue gave an affirmative.

"Why is he suddenly bringing this up?" Xu Zhangqing was alert in his heart.

Zhao Ziyue glanced at the two; seeing their varied reactions, he continued: "The two Junior Brothers' bait is indeed powerful, but fishing here is meaningless.

How about we make an appointment to go to 【Black Dragon Pool】 and try the Dragon Fish inside?"

Upon hearing the words "Dragon Fish", Hu Bugui sobered up almost completely.

His gaze shifted back and forth between Xu Zhangqing and Zhao Ziyue.

As if weighing something.

"Two Junior Brothers, no rush, take your time to consider.

It's getting late, I'll take my leave first." Zhao Ziyue tossed all his gains this time into his Storage Bag, and just before leaving suddenly produced a Communication Talisman.

But he did not hand it to Xu Zhangqing.

Instead he presented it to Hu Bugui.

He did not urge him either.

He merely watched with a smile.

Hu Bugui, however, did not hesitate, immediately taking it in hand.

Zhao Ziyue revealed a satisfied expression: "Junior Brother, once you've decided, contact me."

Afterward, he stepped on the river water, leaving step by step.

In a short while, he was already a hundred meters away.

Very quickly he disappeared from the two's sight.

"What exactly is going on with you?" Xu Zhangqing stood up, questioning with a stern expression.

"Sigh." Hu Bugui let out a breath, then replied: "Just now, in a daze, thinking the other party was a Foundation Establishment Stage Disciple, I therefore planned to make his acquaintance."

Xu Zhangqing's face darkened slightly: "I'm talking about going to Black Dragon Pool."

Hu Bugui blanked for a moment, then explained: "There is a kind of Dragon Fish in Black Dragon Pool, said to contain the thin bloodline of a demonic Dragon, therefore every single one is worth a considerable sum."

"And then?" Xu Zhangqing raised an eyebrow noncommittally.

Hu Bugui gritted his teeth, straightforwardly telling the truth: "In Spirit Beast Valley there is a Golden Core Stage fishing old man, his conditions for accepting disciples are extremely strict, one of them is rare fish species.

Therefore, I want to fish a Dragon Fish to see if I can become his disciple!"

Learning the other party had this idea, Xu Zhangqing was actually left speechless.

Not to mention in the Dongting Immortal Sect.

Even if in any place.

Everyone wants to advance, thereby changing identity, status.

Hu Bugui glanced around, seeing no one nearby, only then spoke seriously: "I don't want to keep selling filthy, stinking manure, even more don't want to go everywhere begging for cooperation.

As a friend, you should understand, right?"

"But..." Xu Zhangqing hesitated, then continued: "This Spirit Rice Wine isn't necessarily effective."

Hu Bugui took a deep breath: "Let's try, what if it works?"

"How do you plan to do it?" Xu Zhangqing's tone softened.

Hu Bugui immediately smiled: "You don't need to get involved, me and Zhao Ziyue will go."

"Fine." Xu Zhangqing took out the remaining half catty of Spirit Rice Wine.

Hu Bugui took it and said: "Even if it fails, at least I'll have met a Foundation Establishment Stage Water Spirit Root, that's not a loss for me either."

As a friend, Xu Zhangqing naturally hoped Hu Bugui could fish up a Dragon Fish, even succeed in becoming a disciple.

Therefore, since the other party had already considered the consequences, there was no need for him to interfere.

When it comes down to it, the two aren't relatives.

Even more no blood relation.

Not worth getting involved.

Time arrived at evening.

Xu Zhangqing finally returned home.

This fishing harvest was abundant.

The Small Storage Bag held several dozen Big White Carp.

Eating one a day, could eat for two months.

"Woof woof!" The little yellow dog wagged its tail excitedly.

"Cluck cluck!" The pearl chicken's eyeballs rolled around wildly.

Seeing this scene, Xu Zhangqing's body and mind thoroughly relaxed: "As expected, nowhere compares to home, from now on still honestly farm."

He immediately walked into the Kitchen, familiarly starting to cook.

He himself eats.

Dog eats.

Pearl chicken eats.

In the end, everyone's bowls all have a piece of fragrant braised fish meat!!!
