Chapter 44 Water Ghost
When the village ruffians heard that they had to pay 150 coins, their faces changed.
None of them have a legitimate livelihood and they make a living by stealing and robbing. Where can they come up with this money?
"My dear, we are really broke. We don't have a cent in our pockets."
"That's right. I didn't even have breakfast today. I'm really short of money..."
"Just treat us like shit."
The villagers begged for mercy one after another. They usually robbed others, but they didn't expect to be robbed today. They all had sad faces and refused to pay.
"No money, huh? Then I'll use you guys as bait!"
Chen Changfan smiled, grabbed a village ruffian by the collar and lifted him up.
After drinking the snake bone and lotus root soup, not only did his injuries heal, but he also gained a lot of strength.
It’s easy to lift a person now.
The village thug who was mentioned was so frightened that he screamed, "Stop it, man! There are water ghosts in the river. They are very fierce. I heard that they even dragged cattle and sheep into the river and ate them, leaving no bones behind!"
Chen Changfan remained unmoved. "I don't believe in that damn water ghost! Today I'll use you as a test to see if that water ghost will eat people."
"Uncle! I was wrong, I really know I was wrong. I'll give you money, isn't it okay for me to give you money?" The village ruffian hurriedly took out money from his pocket, his hands still shaking, and the copper coins fell to the ground with a clang.
"Master! We'll pay you too! Don't use living people as bait!"
Seeing this, the other village ruffians also took out their money immediately, but after half a day, they could only come up with less than 500 coins. The four of them were so anxious that they were sweating profusely.
"Master, this is all the money we have on us. It's almost five hundred coins. Would you mind being kind enough to help us?"
A village thug pleaded for mercy from Chen Changfan pitifully.
Seeing that the village ruffians who usually acted arrogantly were defeated by Chen Erlang today, the onlookers felt extremely relieved and started to beat the fallen dog.
"You guys are always blackmailing people, how come you can't even come up with this little bit of money?"
"Is the sole of the shoe turned over? Is the money hidden there?"
"Every penny less is worth a slap in the face. Why don't you just slap each other in the face?"
It seems that these villagers have been severely bullied by the village ruffians, and they are eager to beat them up a few times to satisfy their desire.
Seeing that Chen Changfan was not easy to fool, a few village ruffians took out some money from their pockets and managed to collect a total of 600 coins. Only then did Chen Changfan let them go.
A few village ruffians felt aggrieved and started cursing after they walked away.
"I've fallen into the hands of this guy named Chen today. I'll go back and tell Brother Huang that I'll get my money back with interest!"
"Yes! Brother Huang has martial arts skills, so it would be easy for him to kill Chen Erlang!"
"By the way, where did Brother Huang go to have fun? Why haven't I seen him for a long time?"
After pocketing the 600 yuan, Chen Changfan packed up his fishing rod and basket and left in a leisurely manner amid the envious gazes of the other anglers.
After Chen Changfan walked away, the fishermen started arguing.
"I've taken this fishing spot, all of you get out of here!"
"You bastard Zhu Tiedan, you want to monopolize such a good fishing spot? I want to fish here!"
"You guys keep arguing, I'll cast a shot first..."
They had witnessed Chen Changfan catching fish with various continuous rods, so naturally they also wanted to experience the thrill of continuous rods. However, they did not know that this was not a problem of position at all, but a problem of technique.
Going downstream, Chen Changfan walked all the way to Jiudaowan, which was full of rocks and dangerous rapids and was rarely visited by people on weekdays.
He quickly took off his outer clothes, leaving only his underwear, then wrapped the clothes tightly with oilcloth and hid them in a puddle.
He took the iron fork and fishing net, put the sharp knife on his waist, and dived into the water.
The river water today is a little colder than usual.
If it weren't for his wave-walking skills that could resist the coldness of the water, his legs and feet would probably cramp up soon.
Following the location in his memory, Chen Changfan swam again to the water plants where he had pulled the net last time.
The water of the Chiwei River was still turbid, but Chen Changfan could always rely on his sensitivity to the water flow using the Chunqiu fishing method to barely "see things" in the water.
Today, he had a real feeling of being able to see things in the water.
It was as if a person who had been nearsighted for many years suddenly put on glasses, and even the sound of water around him was much clearer than before.
Is this the legendary sharp ears and eyes?
It seems that this is also the benefit of drinking the snake bone lotus root soup.
If you keep taking it, you may be able to further improve your physical fitness.
Somehow, there seemed to be fewer fish in the water today than usual. At first he thought it was because the river water was cold, but then he felt something was wrong.
There seemed to be a faint smell of blood in the river water, and an inexplicable murderous aura permeated the air.
He gripped the fork tightly and continued to sneak forward.
When we arrived at the clump of water plants, we saw a group of big fish hiding in it.
He took out his fishing net, intending to catch a few fish and leave quickly.
Just as he was about to cast the net, the school of fish exploded and swam away in all directions.
Immediately afterwards, the large clump of water plants was knocked away by a huge force, and a huge green monster face rushed over.
The monster opened its pair of shiny round eyes, and its bloody mouth opened in a terrifying arc, revealing countless knife-like teeth.
The huge head was covered with black and green moss, looking very evil.
Chen Changfan was frightened by the sudden attack of the monster and shuddered all over. He subconsciously stabbed with the iron fork in his hand, but was unable to pierce the monster's scales at all.
Instead, the monster felt the pain and became angry, speeding towards Chen Changfan and biting him.
With the help of the water stirred up by the monster, Chen Changfan dived into the water plants and narrowly avoided the monster's attack.
But the monster refused to give up and began to bite wildly with its mouth open, instantly muddying the river water.
Chen Changfan used his hands and feet to retreat quickly, only to find that there was a narrow crevice under the water plants.
He crawled into the crevice. The monster wandered around for a while and then rushed towards the crevice.
It was not until this moment that he finally saw the full appearance of the monster, and a chill suddenly ran down his spine.
This monster is over five meters long and has a streamlined shape. It is covered with large and hard scales that gleam with a cold metallic luster.
I guess this is what everyone calls the green water ghost.
Luckily it was just a fish.
It looks a bit like the Arapaima from the previous life.
Unfortunately, the fish was too big.
Not to mention eating a human, I'm afraid it can even eat a cow.
He retreated repeatedly while feeling the cracks in the rocks, but the arapaima was still slamming into the rocks frantically, knocking down a large number of rocks, and it was unable to stop it at all.
Boom boom boom!
Countless rocks were smashed and rolled down, and as soon as they hit the bottom of the water, they were swept away by the turbulent undercurrent.
Jiudao Bay of Chiwei River.
In addition to the rocks and rapids, the most dangerous thing is the undercurrent at the bottom. Even if a cow comes down, it will be swept away by the undercurrent.
"I just stabbed you. You don't have to chase me like this, right?"
Chen Changfan was speechless and had to continue diving deeper.
Faced with such a huge monster, he had no desire to resist at all.
But the deeper you swim, the more turbulent the undercurrent becomes.
Looking down, I saw hundreds of big fish gathered in the narrow cracks in the rocks at the bottom of the water.
I think they all hid in the cracks of the rocks to avoid the attack of the arapaima.
However, there was an equally terrible turbulent current under the crevice. These poor fish had no way to escape and could only wander around here, looking in horror at the arapaima frantically hitting the rocks above their heads.
Seeing several more large rocks being knocked down and the hideous and terrifying face getting closer and closer, Chen Changfan's muscles tensed up instantly. He remained indifferent to the rubble rolling around him, his eyes fixed on the hideous fish head that was getting closer and closer.
Five meters, three meters, one meter!
The Arapaima's bloody mouth suddenly opened, and Chen Changfan seemed to be able to smell the fishy stench from that huge mouth!
The next moment, his pupils suddenly shrank.
The whole body is like a fully drawn longbow, with every muscle and tendon in the body tensed!
