Cut Frost

Chapter 26
"There is a rule in the village. If someone catches a rare fish, it must not be eaten at home or sold in the fish market. It must be paid to the court and enjoyed by the emperor." Tang Bo said.

"The Son of Heaven is thousands of miles away from here, how can he manage?" Xiao Mi still shouted.

"The place where you and I live is owned by the Son of Heaven." Tang Bo sighed.

"It's not the first time that something like this has happened in this village, right?" Liu Mo said aside.

"Yeah." Tang Bo nodded to him and said, "My grandfather and father have all had some rare captures, and never dared to stay by themselves."

"You caught the fish yourself, so you eat and sell it yourself, what does it matter?" Xiao Mi said dissatisfiedly.

"Don't dare, don't dare." Tang Bo hurriedly shook his head and said, "If you eat or sell such fish, you will be beheaded..."

"Ah?" After hearing this, everyone was a little surprised.

"Why is it so serious?" Yu'er said.

"The imperial court has long since issued a decree that no matter whether it is a farmer, a fisherman or a merchant, as long as there is something that is rare, it must not be hidden privately. It must be dedicated to the government and sent to Jingyue City for the royal family's use. Hands and weights, ask for beheading. No one dares to joke about their own lives." Tang Bo said.

"Is there such a thing? This emperor does nothing to enjoy the best things in the world?" Yu'er was also a little dissatisfied when she heard these words.

Tang Bo hurriedly stopped Yu'er: "Girl, don't dare to say this nonsense."

"Everything in the world is owned by the royal family. Such a decree has existed since ancient times." Qingyi said aside, "It's just that this criminal law is indeed a bit heavier."

"Hmph, it's so far from here, and when it's delivered to Jingyue City, the fish will stink, tell the dog emperor to enjoy it!" Xiao Mi said with extreme dissatisfaction.

"Girl, ouch, girl!" Tang Bo hurriedly grabbed Xiao Mi again, shook his head and said, "Don't say it again!"

"What are you afraid of?" Xiao Mi said, "I'm not afraid of that emperor!"

"Xiao Mi!" Liu Mo also stopped Xiao Mi.

When they are there, of course there is no need to be afraid.

But they will leave soon. If they really cause any trouble, how will Tang Bo's family protect themselves at that time?
"Okay, Xiao Mi, it's just a fish, next time my sister will catch a bigger one for you." Yu'er also said.

"How to catch it? It was not easy to bring that fish back. We almost died in the sea to feed the fish!" Xiao Mi pouted.

"Yu'er, what's the matter?" Qing Yi hurriedly asked Yu'er when she heard Xiao Mi's words again.

"No, it's nothing, Xiao Mi is just exaggerating." Yu'er hurriedly said.

If I want Sister Qingyi to go back and tell my mother, I'm afraid I won't even think about going down the mountain in my life.

"There's no exaggeration. The monster today is really powerful. If it wasn't for the tortoise to save us, we would..."

Xiao Mi only cared about what she said, while Yu'er hurriedly pinched her hand.

"Oops, it hurts to death!" Xiao Mi shook off Yu'er's hand and cried while covering her own.

"What monster?" Qingyi pushed Yu'er away, pulled Xiao Mi and asked, "What's going on?"

You Jue heard the word "God Turtle" over there, and immediately stared at Xiao Mi.

"Xiao Mi, don't make a fuss!" Yu'er winked at Xiao Mi.

"Xiao Mi, tell Sister Qing Yi honestly!" Qing Yi said to Xiao Mi, "Otherwise, our family won't have your chopsticks in the future."

"Ah, this..." Xiao Mi paused for a while, stuck out her tongue to Yu'er, and said to Qingyi, "Actually, when we came back, we encountered a very powerful sea monster! We almost died. …”

It is rare to have such a wonderful adventure. I have already been full of words, and I can't hold back.

This time, when Qingyi said this, Xiao Mi had obtained the Golden Token, and excitedly recounted the thrilling adventures at that time.

Hearing Xiao Mi talk about where the harpoon pierced the hard back shell of the turtle, You Jue's eyes flashed with brilliance.

"Thanks to the timely appearance of the tortoise, otherwise, we might already be in that monster's belly now, or we might have lost the price of fish in the sea." Xiao Mi patted her chest and said in fear.

"It's really thanks to the tortoise," Tang Bo said by the side, "I don't know how many years have been sacrificed to the tortoise in the village, I really didn't expect that such a tortoise really saved us at a critical moment. ."

"However," Xiao Mi said again, "the tortoise's injury seems to be very serious, and there is a lot of blood..."

"The tortoise will be fine." Yu'er came up and patted Xiao Mi's shoulder, comforting.

"Xiang Gong, this..." Qing Yi said to Liu Mo.

"It is said that the Eastern Sea Turtle has been cultivated for more than ten thousand years, and it should be one male and one female. The cultivation of this tortoise is by no means easy. If this monster can hurt it, I am afraid it will be extremely difficult." Liu Mo said.

"Yeah, I don't think there are such powerful monsters in the East China Sea." Qingyi nodded.

Pulling over to Yu'er, he put his arm around her shoulder and said, "Fortunately, thanks to the tortoise, otherwise, how would I explain to your mother?"

"Sister Yu'er is also very powerful, thanks to her Snow Mountain Crystal Ice Wheel!" Xiao Mi said aside.

"You two are already so powerful!" Qing Yi also hugged Xiao Mi, "However, you are lucky this time, you will follow me in the future, and don't go out to sea again."

"We're lucky, we'll be fine." Yu'er smiled at Qingyi.

"There are so many vicious things in the world, and you are so naughty, no wonder your mother is always worried." Qing Yi sighed.

"You must not tell my mother about this!" Yu'er hurriedly said.

"What?" Qing Yi asked.

"If she knew, I wouldn't even think about going down the mountain in the future!" Yu'er stuck out her tongue and pulled up Qingyi's hand, "Sister Qingyi, you must keep it a secret for me!"

"You are, haven't you learned your lesson yet?" Qing Yi shook her head.

"Good sister," Yu'er continued to act coquettishly and raised her right hand again, "I promise, I will be more careful in the future! Absolutely listen to my sister's words!"

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything." Qingyi couldn't stand the attack, so she had to admit defeat.

Only then did Yu'er let go of her hands in satisfaction, and said with a smile, "I knew that it was Sister Qingyi who treated me the best!"

"Uncle Tang," Liu Mo said to Uncle Tang, "don't go that far in the future."

"Yeah, it doesn't matter if you catch a little less fish." Tang Boyi nodded.

The few people here are your words and my words, but You Jue over there is in a trance.

After a while the crowd dispersed.

Qingyi went to prepare dinner, and Liu Mo naturally accompanied her.

Yu'er was injured and temporarily adjusted her breath in the house.

Xiao Mi took Xiaodong and Xiaobei to play in the courtyard.

Tang Bo collected the fish caught today so that he could sell it at the market tomorrow.

Yu'er just adjusted her breath. When she got out of the courtyard, Xiaodong and Xiaobei were helping Tang Bo to clean up the pile of fish in the courtyard, but they didn't see Xiao Mi.

"Where did Sister Xiao Mi go?" Yu'er asked Xiao Bei.

"Brother You Jue called her away." Xiao Bei said.

"You Jue?" Yu'er felt very strange in her heart.

This You Jue has always had a cold brow and a cold face.

After the last time about Tuhe Cave Lord and the living King of Hell, he didn't seem to be so indifferent to himself.

But to other people, he always looks like he doesn't get close to the world, and never talks to them.

Why did I just call Xiao Mi and go out today? Is there anything I can't let everyone know about?
