Translator: 549690339
Xia Ji never thought that he would become friends with a fish.
One year, starting from spring, he had gotten used to loneliness and occasional visits.
He could easily obtain the fire seeds that others had to work hard to obtain.
He could learn dozens of cultivation techniques that others needed to work hard to learn every day.
He was a human, an anomaly among the fire demons.
He was the Black Emperor, an anomaly among humans.
He was a transmigrator, an anomaly of this world.
Everyone was destined to be unable to share all his secrets, and only those who had lived for more than ten thousand years could walk on the same level as him.
Therefore, he was truly lonely.
That wasn’t something that could be solved by casually finding a beautiful girl.
It was the loneliness of the soul.
However, no matter how lonely he was, he never thought that he would become friends with a fish that could not speak.
The red-tailed fish became more and more familiar with him. As long as it heard his footsteps, the fish would swim to the lakeside in advance and wait for him in the shallow water.
Sometimes, she would hide in the deep water mischievously and jump out of the water when he got close. The water splashed and splashed on Xia Ji’s face.
Xia Ji also started to get used to carrying books to the lakeside instead of sitting quietly in the study.
He read all kinds of classics softly, and the fish listened curiously in the water.
One day, Xia Ji brought over a recipe. He purposely flipped to the section with braised fish, ” ” steamed fish, ” and ” tofu fish soup ” and showed it to the fish.
The fish stared at it for a long time. Suddenly, it seemed to understand what was going on. It was so scared that it lost its soul. It swung its tail and dived into the water. No matter how much it shouted, it couldn’t come out.
Xia Ji could not help but laugh.
There was some joy on the island because of this.
Spring view of peach blossoms.
I gaze at the stars in summer.
The stars were like water. Xia Ji sat by the lake, but the fish didn’t come out.
So he took out a stalk of spirit grass from Fangzhang Island from his storage space and went to the lakeside. He smiled and shouted, “Alright, don’t be angry anymore. I’ll treat you to a big meal.”
The appearance of the spiritual herbs immediately added a refreshing aura to the surrounding water. This aura enveloped the lake around him.
Under the sparkling moonlight, the red -tailed fish finally couldn’t resist its craving. It spat out bubbles from the bottom of the water and rose to the surface. In the middle of summer, it jumped out of the water and took a bite of the spiritual grass. A delicate leaf was sucked into its small mouth.
After eating, it swam around excitedly.
Xia Ji raised the spirit herb slightly, and then he saw the red-tailed fish jumping around in the water like a puppy.
He was filled with joy.
The psychic little fish actually came to its senses and felt as if it was being played, so it swam away in a huff.
Xia Ji lowered the spirit herb slightly, and the little fish quietly dove back into the water and ‘tiptoed’ back.
When the fish got close, it suddenly swung its tail and its small body broke out of the water. Xia Ji suddenly pulled the spirit herb higher.
The fish’s mouth opened wide, but it missed its target. It rose to the highest point in the air and fell into a momentary stillness. Its pair of fish eyes stared at Xia Ji.
The fish-eye seemed to have noticed the smile in Xia Ji’s eyes. With a loud whoosh, it spat out a water arrow that hit Xia Ji’s face.
Then, the fish fell back into the water and pretended to be a ferocious water beast. It quietly hid at the bottom of the water and started a cold war with Xia Ji.
However, when Xia Ji casually threw the spiritual herb on the surface of the water,
The cold war ended.
The fish seemed to only have seven seconds of memory. It quickly forgot the scene of being played and happily floated up to eat the spiritual grass.
After she finished eating, she even obediently went around Xia Ji and performed a ” weird ” belly dance.
Clearly, it had already begun to have some intelligence and began to display some actions that ordinary fish would not be able to.
Autumn was the full moon.
Xia Ji had wanted to spend the night with Little Su, but he went to the Church of Wolves, Snakes, and Death to investigate and found out that Little Su was busy outside. He guessed that Little Su was most likely still searching for the twelve golden statues, so he had returned alone.
As for Su Tian, she seemed to understand that she would not want to reproduce with her in the short term, so she did not rush her. She only digested the fire seed and worked with Su Yueqing to go to the Tribulation Lands to train and recover her strength.
Su Tian had fulfilled all his requests, and he had given her the fire seed. To a certain extent, it had already become a form of transaction.
As for Su Linyu, her culinary skills were getting better and better. The dishes she cooked actually began to have some strange effects. Hu Xian Er finally ate like a fat fox.
The four women who were related to him in this world were all busy with their own things.
Thus, Xia Ji spent the full moon season alone again.
The moon was in the lake.
Out of habit, he threw a stalk of spirit grass to Yu ‘er. Yu’ er accompanied him and watched the full moon together.
The surface of the lake was like a mirror, reflecting his black hair that was mixed with some white.
At this moment, Xia Ji didn’t know that even though he had deliberately concealed the information of the creator of the Ten Thousand Laws Manual, this secret had still been exposed.
There was no such thing as an impenetrable wall in the world. For some reason, this news had spread.
Perhaps Concubine Wu accidentally leaked it.
Perhaps the two tower masters of the Sun Moon Mountain River Building felt that such a great talent could not be concealed, so they helped him spread the news.
Or perhaps Xia Ji’s seventy-two disciples had been seen.
For a time, many high-level figures of both the righteous and evil sides of the pugilistic world understood that the person who destroyed the underground forces of the Bloodrain Hall and the Twelve Hidden Blades last year and massacred the leader of the Pugilistic World Alliance was most likely this immortal who lived in seclusion in Mirror Lake..
