Chapter 899 Dark Fish
After a while, Lu Xuan returned to Shi Zichen's vicinity.
"Fellow Daoist Shi, Lu bought a set of relatively ordinary fishing gear from the fish shop owner."
He chose a suitable fishing spot twenty or thirty feet away from the middle-aged monk and took out the ink jade spiritual rod, ice silk and other items.
"Ink jade spiritual pole, fourth-grade fishing gear, which is quite good for a new monk who has entered the ranks of fishing treasures."
Shi Zichen commented simply.
"Hope it brings me good luck."
Lu Xuan smiled, carefully wrapped the ice silk silk around the ink jade spiritual pole, hung the agarwood hook, grabbed a fist-sized bait from the box, and threw it accurately not far ahead.
The water flow in the location he chose was relatively gentle, and the bait quickly sank into the Qianbaozhen River.
"Make a nest first."
Thinking in his mind, he hung a small ball of special bait on the agarwood hook and threw it into the real river.
Then, his mind fell on the area of agarwood hook.
As early as when the pagoda weapon spirit brought him here, Lu Xuan had been reminded that the special water in the Qianbao True River had strange effects on the physical body and soul, so he did not dare to probe into the true river with his spiritual consciousness.
The fishing time passed quickly, and an hour passed in the blink of an eye.
Lu Xuan and Shi Zichen occupied a position alone, quietly sensing the changes in the fishing line and float.
"Fellow Taoist Shi, Lu is confused about something, please give me some advice."
Lu Xuan sent a message to Shi Zichen who was not far away.
"Friend Lu, please speak."
Shi Zichen didn't squint his eyes and conveyed the message.
"The spiritual fish, water beasts or other beings that can live in such a strange place as the Qianbaozhen River are of a relatively high level."
"It stands to reason that your intelligence is not low, so how could you be caught by some special bait?"
"Friend Lu Dao doesn't know that the creatures in Zhenhe are quite simple in intelligence."
"They have lived in the Qianbaozhen River for generations, and their bodies have long been integrated with the river water. Their minds and bodies have been washed away by the river water for a long time. It can be said that only the most basic instincts are left, so they will not easily detect the trap behind the bait. "
The middle-aged monk sent a message to Lu Xuan.
"I see."
Lu Xuan nodded lightly.
"Therefore, Fellow Daoist Lu, remember not to enter the Zhen River, lest you lose your soul, your body will assimilate, and you will become a walking zombie."
Taking a two-pronged approach, he didn't believe that Dark Fish could resist such temptation.
Lu Xuan thought confidently.
The black jade spiritual rod was swung hard, and the agarwood hook quickly sank into the surging Qianbaozhen River.
After waiting for a moment, a familiar thought came to my mind.
"Here you go, eat as much as you like!"
Lu Xuan suddenly became extremely vigilant, feeling every slight change in the fishing rod in his hand.
The dark fish in the depths of the Zhen River had never tasted such delicious bait. Simple Lingzhi had no idea that there might be dangers lurking in it, so he went crazy and devoured the bait specially prepared by Lu Xuan.
In the air, the ice silk suddenly sank.
Lu Xuan was already prepared and lifted it up with all his strength.
There were huge waves in the water below, and a giant black fish appeared and disappeared.
"Did you catch a treasure?"
Shi Zichen, who was not far away, was attracted by the movement on Lu Xuan's side. He used magic to fix the Wuyao Spiritual Rod on the river bank. In a flash, he came to Lu Xuan's side.
"It seems to be a dark fish, a fourth-grade spiritual fish. Fellow Daoist Lu is very lucky."
He has been fishing in the Qianbaozhen River for more than a hundred years and has caught many dark fish. He has rich experience and can recognize the origin of the giant fish underneath at a glance.
Lu Xuan didn't bother to answer him, his arm turned into crystal jade, and he pulled the black jade spiritual pole into a bow shape.
When he noticed that the giant black fish had relaxed, Lu Xuan swung it suddenly, and the agarwood hook tightly hooked the giant fish and pulled it ashore.
"It's indeed an Anhui fish."
A trace of envy flashed in the middle-aged monk's eyes.
For a fisherman, the biggest pain is when two people choose a fishing spot, one catches a lot of fish and the other catches nothing.
If you are not afraid of your own air force, you are afraid that others will keep catching fish.
He has somewhat of this mentality at the moment.
He had been guarding this fishing spot for more than a month. Not to mention successfully fishing for treasures, he didn't even have a chance to notice that the spiritual fish and aquatic animals were taking the bait. This made him envious.
"Hehe, just luck, I caught a giant fish out of nowhere."
Lu Xuan said with a smile.
He was able to succeed in one fell swoop entirely by relying on his special ability to improve the bait in a targeted manner to increase the probability of catching the dark fish.
"That method really works."
His heart was filled with joy.
