My Arknights Life Diary

Tu Fang did not explain too much to this man from the martial arts world. After all, there was really nothing to say about Xiao Ke. She was just born strong.

On the other side, everyone on the deck gathered around the big fish.

"Old Mu, you have been a sailor for more than ten years. Have you ever seen such a big scale?"

"I haven't seen it, but I've heard that this scale is golden in color, and there are black tortoise patterns where the scales meet... If something unexpected happens, it should be the legendary 'River Monkey'."

I estimate that this scale is about 50 to meters long. According to the fact that the river monkey grows one meter every ten years, the age of this river monkey is probably conservatively estimated to be over years old. "

A middle-aged sailor called Lao Mu walked forward, looked carefully at the big fish that was stunned by the fall, and said this.

"Ah? So this is the legendary water monkey?"

A passenger heard what Lao Mu said and spoke in surprise.

"What water monkey? The official has debunked the rumor many times. There is no such thing! The reason why this thing is called the river monkey is because this guy is as flexible in the river as a monkey in the mountains and can run around everywhere.

Of course, once this thing leaves the water, it can no longer do anything, and is basically at the mercy of others.”

“Then why haven’t I heard of it before?”

"If you have heard of it, that's ridiculous. The last time this thing appeared was 30 years ago. The story about this thing is only circulated among the older generation of sailors. How many days in a year can you stay on the river?

But speaking of which........that kid over there, what are you going to do with this thing?"

Finally, the middle-aged sailor named Lao Mu asked about Tu Fang.

As the topic of the middle-aged sailor named Lao Mu was pushed to Tu Fang, other people on the deck also spoke up.

Some of them expressed their willingness to pay a large sum of money to buy the scale.

Some also suggested applying it so that they could taste the flavor of the scale.

Some even said that they thought the fish still had its charm... When everyone heard the young man say this, they all took a few steps away from him.

"Hmm... Xiao Ke, what are you going to do with this thing?"

Tu Fang, who was wiping water off Xiao Ke and Gui Gui with a towel, was stunned for a moment by this sudden question. Then, he threw the question to Xiao Ke who had caught the big fish.

“Can I eat it?”

Xiao Ke's eyes were shining with gold.

"Well...of course no problem...but...the key is how to eat it."

Tu Fang looked at the huge fish and felt he had no idea where to start.

"Mr. Er, I just heard my translator talk about this scale, and I want to make a suggestion to you."

Just when Tu Fang was thinking about how to get rid of that thing, Erickson, who had been watching the situation from the side, came out.

"What advice?"

"I just heard my translator say something about this big scale, such as how rare this scale is, so I, Old Film, suggest that you release this rare scale back into the wild, which should be beneficial to maintaining the ecology of this area of ​​water.

Of course, if you need any compensation, please feel free to ask. I have some spare money with this old film."

Erickson spoke in a scholarly tone, but Tu Fang did listen to what he said.

"Xiao Ke, can you not eat it? I'll give you honey cakes! If you really want to eat it, I'll find a way to make you another one later."

Tu Fang finally returned the right of choice to Xiao Ke, the person who caught the fish.

"Well...if you don't want to eat it, then don't eat it."

Xiao Ke thought for a while and then said this.

After all, although she is not picky about food (in most cases), she still has her favorite and preferred foods. Compared with the fish, she prefers the honey cake.

"Well, this is for you."

Tu Fang took the honey cake thrown by Nancy, and then handed it to Xiao Ke.

Then, under the puzzled looks of everyone, Tu Fang called on a few people to help send the big fish back into the river.

However, no one noticed that while moving the big fish, Tu Fang secretly collected some genetic samples from it.

Tu Fang promised Xiao Ke that he would cook this for her in the future. Since catching wild ones would damage the ecological environment, Tu Fang thought he might as well raise a few. The waters on the isolated island are quite large anyway.

But then again, if it is kept on an isolated island, shouldn't we consider the possibility of being eaten by some dragon?

Tu Fang couldn't help but think of this

.....................

After this sudden incident, calm returned to the deck, but it is worth mentioning that no one knew where the few martial artists who had stepped forward had gone.

Tu Fang asked around and found out that several passengers said that they seemed to have returned to the cabin, but they didn't know why.

After that, Erickson approached Tu Fang again and said that he wanted to observe Xiao Ke. He said he always felt that he seemed to have seen Pello who was similar to Xiao Ke somewhere before.

"Hmm... this style... born with great strength, voracious appetite and recovery ability... it must be the people of Cerberus.

But...if this child is a Cerberus, she shouldn't appear in the territory of Yan Country..."

Erickson observed for a while, and when she spoke like this, the doubts in her heart decreased a little, but also increased a lot.

"Cerberus Gods... can you tell me in detail?"

"One of the more famous gods among the Cerberus gods Perro. I have seen them twice. Once I met a family of merchants in the wilderness of Sargon.

Another time was in Bolivar, where I encountered a group of warlords led by the Cerberus gods.

I didn't expect that I could see Cerberus gods in Yan Country, but I think Xiao Ke should not be just an ordinary Cerberus god. After all, I know a little about them.

Even though those Cerberus gods and people are born with great power, at Cerberus's current age, rushing into the river and fighting with the giant beast in the water... "

At this point, Eriksson shook his head.

"I think this is more like a story that only appears in heroic legends."

As Tu Fang listened to Erickson talking about Xiao Ke's peculiarity, a sentence from a patriot came to his mind. Tu Fang couldn't remember the specific content, but it seemed to be saying that Xiao Ke was a son of the wilderness.

Tu Fang felt that this so-called Son of the Wilderness was most likely the reason why Xiao Ke was special.

“As outrageous and unrealistic as this is, it did happen, didn’t it?”

"Well, so, now the mysteries surrounding this child are becoming more and more mysterious to me. If I didn't have a long way to go, I would really like to travel with you for a few days and observe this little guy carefully.

Observing this special case will give me some more material for the Pero race when I write the book later."

Xiao Ke sat on a small stool, holding a piece of honey cake, eating it while listening to the conversation between the two adults next to her. Although she didn't understand, she still listened.

As for the reason?

She also doesn't know...
