Chapter 73
The businessman who fell into the water only had time to call out a few times, the river turned blood red, and soon, the river surface returned to calm.

On the willow leaf boat, everyone's eyes were about to burst, and they were all shocked by the silent burst of blood.

Ye Shu clenched the wishful ring on her finger, and the river water hit her body, her clothes were wet, and there was nothing but ice-cold between her fingers.

Catfish is a kind of freshwater fish, and there is a special fish dish in Xiaochangsheng Inn, but what about this underwater demon catfish.

When Wang Baoshi told the origin of the underwater monster fish, she guessed that it was probably the musk deer hidden in the ring in her hand that attracted the monster.

Otherwise, how could a giant catfish appear out of nowhere at the ferry, which was still calm a few days ago.

Ye Shu scolded the monster monkey upside down, and it was another second-tier monster, which looked much more powerful than the Golden Winged Locust Emperor.

She didn't even know how to clean up such a giant squid catfish just before her, let alone swimming under the water with pride. The squid catfish could kill her and the life on the boat just by opening its mouth. swallowed.

"Qi is stupid, hunting and killing monsters to earn rewards, you love me, why can't you kill them?" After the child fell into the water and died, the thief catfish seemed to be satisfied, and temporarily sank into the water.The few people on the boat, except for the epee man, breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Baoshi took a few glances at the water, the water was muddy, and he didn't know where the monster catfish was hiding.

The epee man stood with his sword in his arms, and looked at Qi Chang sarcastically.

Qi Chang's face was extremely pale, and his heart was bleeding.

He originally thought that this trip to the southwest would definitely yield something, and the child he chose beside him was a good seedling of the Three Spirit Roots.If the training is good, it is very likely that you will be able to enter the inner door of certain sects in the future.But now, because of a thief catfish that was killed halfway, not only the sale failed, but the fish mouth might even be killed.

The girl witnessed the tragic death of the businessman who fell into the water, she was trembling with fright, and she didn't know if she was frightened or not.

Seeing that the man refused to make a move, Qi Chang felt even more suspicious. Like Wang Baoshi, he could see that the monster catfish hadn't left yet, and it was likely to hurt people again.

"If you want to kill, kill. Liexiu only kills unowned monsters. Killing owned monsters will cause trouble for the upper body." Seeing Qi Chang, Wang Baoshi still didn't understand.

He almost fell into the water just now, and he was only a few steps away from the strange catfish, and happened to see a magic pattern similar to a spirit beast contract engraved on the back of the strange catfish.

When Qi Chang heard this, he immediately understood why the man refused to make a move.

Monster beasts and spirit beasts are often just a thought.Most of the monsters are not raised in captivity, while the spirit beasts are tamed and have a milder temperament.Just looking at the posture of the catfish attacking people, it doesn't look like it has been tamed by humans. Even if it is really a beast with a master, it must have just been subdued not long ago.

Taming monsters is much more difficult than domesticating ordinary spirit beasts.Therefore, most cultivators will choose to forcibly train the monsters when they are young and relatively shallow.

And ordinary second-order monsters have mediocre pedigree and shallow cultivation, so they are not a good breed for domestication, not to mention this catfish is huge in size and ugly in appearance. What kind of vicious cultivator would keep it in captivity Such a beast.

No matter what evil intentions the other party has, Qi Chang knows very well that those who have the strength to keep monsters in captivity in Rui country must be people with a small background and family background.Lie cultivators are mostly casual cultivators without an organized sect, so naturally they will not oppose such background cultivators.

There was another tumult under the water. For a while, few boats were killed along the Jinwei River. The strange catfish hadn't eaten fresh meat for a long time. Today, it saw dozens of people and swallowed two more.

After a while, depending on the spring and spring on the water, they circled the willow-leaf boat.

It was noon, and the scorching sun in late autumn breathed out the fiery anger.

The light was folded on the fish's spine, and a seal-like dark black mark was clearly visible.

This catfish was indeed not long ago in captivity. It was originally an ordinary second-order catfish living in the sea of ​​Ruiguo.

The flood that blocked Xitao's footsteps for several months broke down the sea protection embankment of Rui Country, and a large number of fish and shrimps in the open sea were washed into the inland river.

After the pirate catfish was washed into the inland river, it was difficult to find suitable creatures as food, so they could only survive by devouring some human and livestock corpses that died in the flood.

It was also a coincidence that among the corpses eaten by the catfish, there was a cultivator who died in the flood, and its size became several times larger than that of ordinary catfish.

After the catfish swam all the way into the golden reed marsh, it devoured several passing ships and merchants. Such a big move naturally attracted the attention of road repairers.

The cultivator passing by wanted to kill the catfish, but unexpectedly found that the catfish was quite impressive because it had swallowed a lot of flesh and blood of living people.

The cultivator was originally from the beast taming school, so he had the idea of ​​conniving the catfish to continue to commit crimes in the golden reed, so that it could break through the third level as soon as possible.

The monster beasts of the second level are beast soldiers. After breaking through the third level, the monsters can be promoted to be a beast general. The power is extraordinary.

Such a vicious practice, replaced by other decent cultivators, must be punished and punished, but that cultivator is relying on the southwest area, and there are no other cultivators, so he boldly releases beasts to commit crimes here.

"That's the mark of animal taming. There are many astonishing cultivators who rely on powerful taming animals to fight against the enemy," Wang Baoshi reminded in a low voice when he saw Ye Shu staring at the fish spine in a daze.

At this time, the situation on the boat was very critical.

The epee man on board who had the strength to kill the catfish was a bit shy and refused to make a move, but for the rest of them, the two warriors were obviously not the opponents of the catfish.

A boat with nine people without the boatman anchored on the edge of a cluster of reeds and several bright reefs.

Seeing that no one on board took action to control the enemy, Jian Catao became more reckless, and there was another bump from the tail, and the whole boat shook unceasingly.

"It's strange. Although the owner of this catfish intends to connive at the monster's murder, he should have set certain restrictions on the catfish. The people who crossed the river a few days ago were safe and sound. Why is it our turn? On the contrary, he has become more impolite," said the epee man in surprise, he had to cross the river due to some business, so he just stood on the bow of the boat, which was just for deterrent.

Ordinary monsters should have retreated a hundred feet away after hearing his breath, but this strange catfish did not know what to do, and came to provoke again and again.

The epee man saw very accurately.In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, the owner of the strange catfish did put a ban on the catfish before going out, only allowing to swallow some passing boats and passers-by in the far river, and never causing trouble on the inland bank.

The old boatman has also figured out the number of routes in the past few days, and moved forward along the normal waterway.

Such an arrangement can not only prevent large-scale casualties from attracting investigations by the local government, and disturb the secular imperial rule, but also ensure that other cultivators will not be disturbed, preventing this advanced monster from being killed by other cultivators. kill.

The few people on the boat were walking on thin ice, and Yeshu also had a small drum in his heart, beating loudly.

The monster monkey in the Immortal Mansion sat comfortably by the pool, crossing its legs: "Ignorant human race, I forgot to tell you that the fluctuation of spiritual power will double the effect of the 'musk array'. The musk array in your hand, Now it is enough to wake up a low-level monster that has been sleeping to death immediately."

Ye Shu wished he could pull the monstrous monkey out of the Immortal Mansion, chop it into pieces, and throw it into the river to feed the catfish.

The thief catfish didn't dare to attack the bow directly, but cleverly kept bumping at the stern.

The sky had already darkened, and the temperature dropped suddenly.The reeds were densely painted, and strange birds croaked from time to time.

The few people on board were cold and hungry, and they had to be on guard against the catfish showing their power and overturning the hull.

After witnessing the tragic situation of the children who fell into the water earlier, every collision is a kind of torture for everyone on board.

There was another violent impact, this time, the hull of the boat was almost overturned, and everyone on the boat rolled all over the ground except for the man with the heavy sword.

"There is only one way right now." Qi Chang was supported by two people, and he fell badly, spilling the smelling salts in his hand, "I ordered people to send out a distress signal, and at most one day, the people from Zhibaoxuan will be gone." I will arrive. Everyone has seen the situation just now, and the catfish will not leave easily unless..."

"Unless it's shameful to go in and feed the fish," the epee man laughed softly, and the epee in his hand groaned softly, and the blade trembled, seeming to be mocking and showing off his power.

The man's tattered jacket stood beside the sword against the wind and stood on the bow of the boat.It was just the words he said that instantly brought the moods of the people on board to the bottom.

A few blood bubbles appeared on the surface of the river. After a short period of calm, Qi Chang took out a plume sword, pulled it out, and shot it into the air.

Among the four people on board, except for the single epee man, only Ye Shu and Wang Baoshi remained calm.

It is the first time that Wang Baoshi has encountered such a difficult situation after so many years of going out to do business.

Qi Chang looked at him thoughtfully.Wang Baoshi saw some irony in his eyes, he understood Qi Chang's meaning.

He also hesitated in his heart. Before leaving Huizhen, she promised to take care of Yeshu all the way, but it was just a verbal promise. One continues to be his own traveling merchant.The world is so big, I don't know when the horses and moons will meet again.

It's just that when he fell into the water just now, when the little girl couldn't take care of herself, she didn't forget to save his life with her hand.

If Qi Chang proposed to throw another person into the water later, he would definitely not abandon his subordinates again, so who should go down?

Everyone on the boat was thoughtful, even the girl who had been frightened before fell into a deathly silence after the tears in her eyes faded away.

The sky had completely darkened. On a moonless and windy night, the willow leaf boat was pitch black, leaving only a few pairs of shining eyes.

After the merchant fell into the water, I don't know whether the thief catfish was full, or the previous collision made the thief catfish tired.

The time when the water surface was calm was a little longer than before, and the willow-leaf boat moved slowly in the current, not knowing where it was going.

"Eat something to fill your stomach first," Wang Baoshi's voice was obscure, no matter how bad the situation was, he should be a dead ghost.
