Chapter 115: Pond Strangeness
Time goes back to one day ago. It is said that Lin Qingqing had been practicing for most of the day. Suddenly, she felt a surge of many kinds of power in her inner world. The spiritual energy in her dantian was about to overflow. The mysterious feeling was hard to describe. She had a vague idea of forming a pill, but she could not find a breakthrough.
Unable to find a way to vent her emotions, Lin Qingqing had to look around for opportunities. Just then, she ran into Fu Yifan, whom she had met once at the apprenticeship ceremony.
He was seen squatting furtively in the corner, staring straight ahead without moving, which looked particularly weird. Lin Qingqing couldn't help but move closer out of curiosity.
"Brother Fu, what are you doing?"
But it was Lin Qingqing's casual words that made Fu Yifan, who had been waiting for a whole day, miss the fruits of his labor, and all his efforts were wasted in the East China Sea.
“Ahhhhhhh, I ^%&*^%$…”
After howling like a ghost for a long time, Fu Yifan finally calmed down and said with a sad face: "Junior Sister, do you know what you have done just now? My seven-colored spirit fish, do you know that it almost took the bait? You just said this lightly, Senior Brother Fu, and it was scared away by you. I don't want to live anymore!"
After saying that, Fu Yifan threw down his fishing rod and was about to dive into the pond. Seeing this, Lin Qingqing quickly reached out and grabbed him.
"I'm so sorry, Senior Brother. I didn't know either. Ignorance is not a crime. Of course, this is all my fault. Although I can't compensate you for one fish, I can accompany you to catch another one," Lin Qingqing tried to explain to him and asked for his forgiveness. "I just saw you squatting there furtively, looking very suspicious, so I couldn't help but come forward to disturb you. If the two of us squat together, it should look more normal to outsiders, and I guess no one will come forward to say hello out of curiosity like I did."
Fu Yifan tried to understand Lin Qingqing's explanation, thought about it, and replied to her: "What you said seems to make sense. There is still some time before dark, so let's go fishing together! If I can't catch it before dark, it means that it is not my destiny, so I can only let it live."
This colorful spirit fish is different from ordinary fish. As for how it is specifically manifested, it can only be explained by the tongue. These are Fu Yifan’s original words.
Lin Qingqing was speechless. Others came to Tian'en Secret Realm to gain experience and look for opportunities, but Fu Yifan was different. He said he came here to find food.
"Eat, eat, eat. I might have eaten so much that he became stupid." Lin Qingqing thought to herself, but she still obediently accompanied Fu Yifan to go fishing.
Seeing that there was no movement in the pond, Lin Qingqing asked him quietly, "Brother Fu, can't we go into the water and catch these seven-colored spirit fish?"
"Do you think I haven't tried it? There seems to be something strange underwater. As soon as I went in, I started to feel dizzy and couldn't see anything clearly. Not to mention fish, I couldn't even see my fingers when I stretched out my hand. The most bizarre thing is that underwater will block people's senses, let alone using spiritual consciousness to detect fish. Moreover, the water is extremely cold. Less than half a minute after going in, I couldn't stand the cold and climbed out." Then, he pointed at the fishing rod, "This is why I have to do this. It's all your fault. If it weren't for..."
"Okay, okay, I know it's my fault. Senior Brother Fu, please stop nagging me." Lin Qingqing couldn't stand Fu Yifan's noise. If he didn't talk, he was quite easy to get along with. But when he talked, he seemed like a fool. It was hard to imagine that such a person had had an affair with the tough Senior Sister Ye. It was said that they were childhood sweethearts.
"Senior Sister Ye must be very fond of Senior Brother Fu." Looking at the other party's silly look, Lin Qingqing couldn't help but have this thought in her mind.
"Shh, I feel something has been hooked, I wonder what it is." Fu Yifan suddenly said nervously. As he spoke, he tightened the fishing line and then pulled it hard, but the thing in the water remained motionless. Not only that, there was a powerful force that pulled Fu Yifan into the pond.
"Senior Brother Fu!" Upon seeing this, Lin Qingqing immediately dropped the fishing rod in her hand, reached out to grab Fu Yifan, and made a gesture with her left hand, allowing the vines behind her to immediately wrap around her. She then used this to gain leverage, and the stalemate continued. Fu Yifan was not pulled into the water.
"Brother, let go of the fishing rod!"
Lin Qingqing's answer was Fu Yifan's parallel sentences with a look of grievance on his face.
"I can't let go. If I let go, I'll lose my fishing rod! Without my fishing rod, I'll lose my dinner! Without dinner, it means..."
"Shut up now! If you don't let go, we're both going to become someone else's dinner!"
"OK then."
In a flash, when Fu Yifan was about to let go, a long and thick tentacle stretched out from the water, wrapped around Fu Yifan's hand and entangled him tightly.
"Oh no! What the hell is this?" Fu Yifan's eyes widened in horror. The next moment, he turned around and asked Lin Qingqing, "Junior sister, how about having teppanyaki squid tonight?"
I'm going to eat your big devil's head! Lin Qingqing suddenly felt powerless to complain.
The situation was very tense at the moment, but Fu Yifan was still able to be so detached, which only proved that he had a very strong psychological quality.
But Lin Qingqing's hands were slipping, and she was afraid that she would not be able to hold Fu Yifan, so she had to say, "How about I let go first? After it eats Senior Brother, I will consider whether to eat the teppanyaki squid."
"Ahhh, how can you be so cruel, little junior sister! Save me quickly, don't let go!" The only answer she got was Fu Yifan's ghostly howls.
"It's too noisy, Senior Brother Fu. If you make any more noise, I will let go." Lin Qingqing said expressionlessly.
Fu Yifan had no choice but to stare with eyes wide open and glare.
Although she said harsh words, she was actually thinking about how to rescue her brother and save the situation. Coincidentally, she also wanted to try what grilled squid tasted like!
She quickly cast a few spells and locked the vines that were wrapped around her back. The force of the water naturally pulled the two of them down. Lin Qingqing used this force to draw a circle in the air, drew her sword with her left hand, and slashed the tentacles that were wrapped around Fu Yifan, then suddenly pulled him back.
While she was circling in the air, she quickly retracted her sword, then made a spell, and the vines behind her successfully rolled the two of them back. The vines also rolled them back along with the parts she had cut off, which naturally became their dinner.
After escaping danger, the two smiled at each other. Fu Yifan pointed at the tentacles still wrapped around him and said jokingly, "Junior sister, it seems that we can't eat the seven-colored spirit fish. Let's just have a meal of grilled squid."
