Chapter 351 The Fish I Want to Catch

After Fusu personally arranged the next strategy, he left the Frozen City.

In the State of Jin, near an unknown village built along the Yangtze River, Fusu took modern fishing gear, built a fishing platform on a wide river beach, and started fishing directly with a sea fishing rod.

"Whose rich son is this?"

Soon, some villagers passing by discovered Fusu fishing. Looking at his modern and exquisite clothes, the delicate fishing box and fishing platform he was sitting on, they stopped to watch out of curiosity.

Compared to the people who had a hard time surviving in the demonic countries, the lives of the people in Jin were undoubtedly much better. Although the demons in Jin were still serious, at least they were not so easy to encounter. As long as the people were willing to work hard and had some brains, they could still have enough food and clothing. Those who were not so well off did not have to face the situation of starving to death.

Therefore, the people of Jin also had the leisure to observe new things and indulge in their curiosity.

As one person stopped to watch, other villagers passing by also stopped here one after another, curiously watching Fusu fishing. Soon, more than 20 people stood dozens of meters away and watched. They all wanted to see how big a fish this rich young man could catch with such exquisite fishing gear.

Not long after, a middle-aged man and a young boy who were about to go to the fields came here and stopped to watch.

"Uncle, isn't that person afraid of being dragged into the river by the monsters and water ghosts in the river?"

Looking at Fusu sitting by the river, the young man immediately asked curiously to the middle-aged man next to him.

Sixty or seventy years ago, their village relied on fishing as the main way of survival, but as the world became more chaotic and more demons appeared, the entire village gave up fishing and switched to farming.

But despite this, demons would occasionally come ashore from the water to prey on livestock and villagers.

Later, at the suggestion of an outsider, a sign was erected at the entrance of the village to negotiate with the demons. The seven nearby villages took turns to hold sacrifices at the riverside every day, offering live sheep. Every six months, several villages would sacrifice a pair of boys and girls together. Only then did the demons in the river stop coming ashore to attack people.

But even so, no one dared to fish anymore. Fishing was only allowed after the sacrifice, and then only for one hour.

There was no sacrifice held in their village today, but a rich young man came to fish with such exquisite fishing gear, so they were naturally curious.

"If he breaks the rules, he will be eaten by the demon! Jian'er, you can't learn this, or your mother will be sad!"

The middle-aged man sighed and said after hearing this.

"Since he will be eaten by the demon, why doesn't everyone stop him?"

Hearing this, the boy named Jianer asked in confusion. The rules had been set since he was born, so this was the first time he had encountered such a thing.

"Just don't worry about it!" Hearing this, the middle-aged man shook his head with regret. Kindness is not so easy to show. The rich young man has already violated the rules. If they try to persuade him, they will only offend the demon.

Sometimes, demons will even deliberately disguise themselves as unruly fishermen to lure kind people. After a long time, people no longer dare to persuade them.

However, just as he shook his head and finished speaking, he saw the young man next to him running towards Fusu by the river, shouting, "Hey, don't fish, there are monsters in the river, you will be eaten."

"Hey, come back soon, Jian'er!"

“Hey, Sun’s daughter-in-law’s boy, don’t go over there!”

At this time, others also noticed the boy running over and started shouting loudly.

The middle-aged man was horrified and wanted to chase the boy.

But at this moment, there was a sudden movement on the river surface. A huge whirlpool suddenly appeared in the river water dozens of meters away, with a range of at least ten meters.

"Old Sun, don't go over there! The demon is coming!"

"Sun family's daughter-in-law's boy, come back quickly!"

Seeing this, the people nearby quickly grabbed the middle-aged man tightly. If he went over now, he would be dragged into the water and eaten by the demons in the river.

Being held tightly by the people beside him, the middle-aged man could only look at the young man who had already run to Fusu in despair, shouting: "Jian'er, come back quickly, the demons are coming. Come back quickly!" "Hurry up, the demons are coming!"

The young man also heard the shouting behind him and saw the huge whirlpool gradually approaching on the river, but he still ran to Fusu without hesitation, grabbed Fusu and ran away.

However, he did not pull Fusu.

"Hurry up, the demon is coming."

He pulled Fusu hard, but it was as if he was pulling a mountain instead of a person. He couldn't move Fusu at all despite his best efforts. Seeing the whirlpool getting closer and closer, the boy was so anxious that he started to cry.

"The fish I want to catch has already come, but I don't even know if it's the fish I want to catch. How can I start fishing now?"

Looking at the boy who was about to cry, Fusu said with a smile, and reached out to pat the boy on the head.

As he finished speaking, a rapidly approaching whirlpool in the river came to the shore, and then a fish monster that was at least ten meters long, with a mouth full of sharp teeth, a slender body, and six pairs of short front legs jumped out of the river, opening its bloody mouth to swallow Fusu and the other man.

Shrouded in the shadow of the fish monster and looking at the bloody mouth that was devouring him, the boy was so scared that he collapsed to the ground.

"Wow~"

The next second, the sound of chains rang out of nowhere. On the ground behind Fusu, dozens of skeletons in black and white robes emerged from the ground. Dozens of transparent chains in their hands suddenly shot out and wrapped around the fish monster in the blink of an eye.

Then the chain was pulled, and the fish monster with its bloody mouth opened wide and ready to swallow was dragged to the grass beach behind.

Before the fish monster could struggle, a burly nightmare skeleton placed a sharp harpoon burning with a blue flame in front of the fish monster's eyes.

Feeling the restraint of the flame on the harpoon on its soul, the fish monster who wanted to struggle suddenly dared not move, and quickly begged for mercy: "Mercy!"

"It's okay, it's just a little fish monster!"

Fusu reached out and pulled up the young man who was slumped on the ground, smiled and helped him brush the dust off his body.

On the road dozens of meters away, the villagers who were watching were also stunned. Then they began to tremble and immediately ran away crawling.

In their view, the fish monster is a demon, but those skeletons are also ghosts. Moreover, there are so many ghosts and monsters, and they can easily subdue the fish monster. They have no agreement with their village, which will only make it more dangerous.

"Jian'er!"

But there was one exception. After being pulled, the middle-aged man immediately ran over with farm tools in a panic. After being stopped by the skeleton, although his legs were shaking, he still shouted to Fusu who was pulling the boy: "Let go of Jianer, come to me."

"I won't hurt him!" Fusu said to the middle-aged man with a smile, and waved his hand to let the undead who were blocking him let him go.

Then he said to the boy, "Your name is Jian'er, what's your full name?"

Hearing this, the young man looked at Fusu timidly and said cowardly, "My name is Fan Jian!"

"Fan Jian, what a good name!" Fusu praised with a smile. If you want to pick a fight with a demon, you really need someone who likes to be a jerk.

"."juvenile.

"This, this great king, I hope you can release this child. He is young and doesn't know anything."

The middle-aged man ran over carefully with a hoe in his hand, looked at Fusu and said timidly.

Fusu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't hurt him. Just let him stay here and fish with me for a while."
