Spring and Autumn Confucian Heroes

Chapter 279 Island Master
When the old man heard Huan Chang's words, he couldn't help showing a strange look on his face.

"What's wrong with no bait, what's wrong with straight hooks, who stipulates that only curved hooks can be used for fishing?"

The old man curled his lips and looked at Huan Chang with contempt in his eyes.

Huan Chang was stunned on the spot when he heard the words, but he didn't know how to refute.

"But in this way, how can you catch fish?"

The old man sighed and shook his head, his expression was full of high-ranking and lonely.

"People in the world are so ignorant, they don't know that as long as they are skilled enough, an iron pestle can be ground into a needle."

"Don't say that I still use fishing lines and fishing rods. As long as I am sincere, even if I don't use anything, some fish will jump to the shore by themselves."

"You little doll looks smart, but I didn't expect it to be so vulgar."

Huan Chang coughed violently a few times, feeling that his entire outlook on life was about to be subverted. He wanted to refute, but he didn't know where to start.

At this time, Huan Chang suddenly thought of a problem, that is, this old man may not be some strange person, but some problems with his head.

Cough cough, that is, as the saying goes, neuropathy.

Shaking his head, Huan Chang swam to the river bank with the fish in his arms, and threw the fish to the old man with a dejected face.

"Hahaha, my old man is really very wise. I just said that fish will jump to the shore automatically. Isn't this a dream come true?"

The old man threw away his fishing rod, picked up the fish that Huan Chang threw away on the ground, and laughed excitedly.

Huan Chang was completely messed up at this time, he didn't expect that the old man not only had some nervous problems, but also had a thicker skin than the city wall.

"This is obviously the fish I caught."

Huan Chang was thinking in his heart, but he didn't say it out, but he became more and more convinced that there was something wrong with the old man's head.

"Young man, hurry up and clean up the fish caught by the old man. The old man treats you to fish today."

Even though he was convinced that the old man's face was thicker than the city wall, Huan Chang couldn't help but twitch a few times when he heard such shameless words.

However, Huan Chang was kind by nature, so he cleaned up the fish without saying anything, and put it on the fire to grill it.

Not long after, the seductive aroma came into the noses of the two of them again.

"This tail is for you to eat."

After the fish was grilled, the old man couldn't wait to grab it and was ready to eat the fish.

But remembering that he had promised Huan Chang to treat him to fish, he tore off half of the fish tail with great reluctance, and handed it to Huan Chang.

After grilling, the tail of the fish was a little blackened, and when Huan Chang took it, his face twitched again.

At this time, Huan Chang didn't know what to use to describe the old man's brazenness.

"Baha, baha, baha."

Regardless of the old man's age, he eats very quickly and his teeth are also very good.

When Huan Chang was holding half of the blackened fish tail in a daze, the old man had already finished the grilled fish, not even a single fish bone was left.

"Old man, I didn't expect your teeth to be so good."

Huan Chang saw the old man's ferocious appearance, and immediately felt his throat was a little dry, and he didn't know what to say.

The old man raised his head proudly, then opened his mouth, revealing two rows of white teeth.

"The young man is really right. My teeth are very good, old man."

Suddenly, Huan Chang seemed to remember something, and his expression changed slightly.

Huan Chang heard from the old man that he fished for food, and if he couldn't catch fish, he would have nothing to eat.

Then, is it possible for the old man to catch fish with a straight hook without bait or in a river section without fish?
the answer is negative.

After all, it is impossible for the old man to be so lucky every day to meet someone like Huan Chang.

Then the question comes, is the old man lying before, or the old man has not eaten for a long time?
Thinking of this, Huan Chang's body tensed a little, and he looked at the old man with a little wariness in his eyes.

"Old man, have you ever caught fish before?"

Huan Chang asked tentatively, but his eyes were on the old man's face.

Hearing this, the old man couldn't help but fell into deep thought, and sighed after a long time: "It seems that I haven't really caught any fish here."

It can be seen that the old man's face is a little sad and his mood is a little depressed.

However, Huan Chang was not confused by the other party's performance, but continued to ask: "Then dare to ask the old man, what did you eat before?"

Although the tone of the inquiry was gentle, Huan Chang's body tensed up.

"Many years ago, the old man, I only ate the fish I caught, but since I couldn't catch any fish, I haven't eaten for a long time."

"How long is it?"

Huan Chang seemed to have remembered something, his face changed slightly, and he still asked questions.

"It seems to be decades, the specific time is too long, and I can't remember."

Hearing the old man's words, Huan Chang was stunned.

Huan Chang swallowed his saliva, staring at the old man in disbelief, the doubts in his heart were completely understood in an instant.

Although the warriors in the Kyushu mainland are powerful, they still need to eat after all.

Only those peerless powerhouses who can break the threshold of life and death can live by absorbing the vitality of the weather.

If this old man is a peerless and strong man, he can figure out how the other party would be bored fishing with a straight hook, and it is still in a section of the river where there are no fish.

Breaking through to the level of life and death, the way forward for warriors has been cut off.

Coupled with the fact that such peerless powerhouses have a long lifespan, even they themselves don't know what kind of pursuit they still have.

This also makes this kind of warrior have a weird temper, and likes to do things that ordinary people can't understand to pass the time.

The same thing, happening to different people, will have completely different senses.

If it is an ordinary person who does not know martial arts and fishes with a straight hook without bait, then he can only be called a neuropathy.

But if this happened to a peerless powerhouse, it means that the master is really outstanding.

Moreover, warriors who have reached this level have already entered the realm of returning to nature, and it is reasonable for Huan Chang to not be able to find out the details of the other party.

"If this is really Samsara Island, and the senior in front of me is really a peerless powerhouse, then his identity..."

Thinking of this, Huan Chang's body trembled.

"Senior, you, you, you are..."

After the shock, Huan Chang forced himself to calm down and wanted to ask the old man's identity.

"I'm full today, let's go fishing another day."

But the old man got up suddenly, yawned and picked up the fishing rod, and his figure disappeared without a trace.

"Senior, senior, senior!"

When Huan Chang saw the old man disappear, he couldn't help but feel anxious, and shouted loudly in his dantian, but got no response.

Feeling that the old man had really left, Huan Chang couldn't help showing a look of disappointment on his face.

He still has a lot of questions to ask the old man, but if a peerless strong man like the old man is unwilling to show up, no one will be able to find their traces.

"Is it really the owner of Samsara Island?"

Although there was speculation about the identity of the old man, Huan Chang was not completely sure when the other party did not admit it himself.
