I practice cultivation cautiously in a strange world

The old voice was kind, but it sent shivers down Chen Lin's spine.

This is the nightmare world, and any living creature may be in great danger, not to mention that he has no idea when the other party appears.

Forced himself to calm down, he slowly turned his head.

Then he saw an old man with a white beard wearing a bamboo hat looking at him.

The other person was slightly thin, but energetic. He was holding a black stick-like object in one hand and a net bag in the other.

This look looked like a fisherman, but Chen Lin's eyes shrank.

Because the other person's appearance, demeanor, and tone of voice are all the same as normal people!

In the nightmare world, no matter what kind of strange creatures they are, it is not uncommon, but normal humans are very rare, especially those with normal thinking and intelligence. They are not ordinary existences and are extremely dangerous.

The most important thing is that he can't distinguish whether the opponent is a creature from the nightmare world or an outsider like him!

In addition, Chen Lin found that the black wooden stick held by the other party seemed to be similar to the shape of the nightmare object that pulled him into this place.

No, it's exactly the same, just the same thing.

Although he was confused, he didn't look any further. He quickly withdrew his gaze and felt it secretly.

But even though they were so close, they still couldn't feel any energy fluctuations on the other party, as if they were just ordinary mortals.

But how could someone appear here be a mortal? The more so, the more dangerous it is.

"I misunderstood. I just passed by by chance and didn't fish here."

After thinking for a moment, Chen Lin answered truthfully.

Then he looked at the other party vigilantly, and if he touched any rules, he was always ready to use his spiritual consciousness and secret techniques to counterattack.

Originally, he wanted to ask the other party directly if he was an outsider, but gave up.

In the nightmare world, you can not speak without speaking, otherwise if you say the wrong thing, it may cause serious consequences.

However, there was no abnormality in the old man. Instead, he shook his head regretfully and said, "That's such a pity. The fish in this lake are very delicious. If you are lucky, you can even get unexpected benefits."

After saying that, he put down the net bag, and then pulled on the black wooden stick, and the wooden stick became longer.

Chen Lin suddenly looked shocked.

This wooden stick turned out to be a telescopic fishing rod!

If this thing is a fishing rod, then He Changhong must have fished here before. I don't know if his death is related to fishing.

While he was thinking, he saw the old man flicking the fishing rod hard, and then looking at the water quietly.

Chen Lin raised his eyebrows.

Jiang Taigong was fishing without bait, but this old man didn't even have a fishing line. What was he fishing for? Was he lonely?

Suppressing his curiosity, Chen Lin did not continue to look, but slowly backed away.

At this time, his body had begun to feel a sense of rejection, and he planned to retreat into the woods and wait to return, so as not to be discovered by the other party.

He retreated carefully and was always on guard.

But until he entered the woods, the old man didn't even look back at him.

Just when he breathed a sigh of relief, felt the rejection in his body getting stronger and stronger, and was about to leave, the old man's voice suddenly sounded again.

"Fishermen should not return empty-handed, as that will not only reduce their luck, but may also bring unpredictable consequences."

Chen Lin was shocked when he heard this.

Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately took out the immortal stone, and the feeling of rejection disappeared.

Then he walked out of the woods, hugged the old man with a fist, and said respectfully: "I don't know what I mean by what I said. What should I do?"

Since the other party gives a verbal reminder, he must treat it carefully, because this may also be a manifestation of the rules.

Just like when she first entered the scarecrow hut, Niuniu gave a reminder that if she left without weaving a scarecrow, she would become a scarecrow.

If you don't obey and just wait to be ostracized and leave, the consequences are really unpredictable.

It would be over if he turned into a fish.

"That's what I said. Don't you understand that fishermen can't return empty-handed? Don't make any noise or scare away all my fish!"

The old man's voice sounded again, with a hint of displeasure.

Then he saw his body suddenly tremble, and he suddenly lifted the fishing rod, and a palm-sized fish jumped out of the water.

There was obviously no fishing line, but the fish seemed to be pulled by something. With the movement of the fishing rod, it was lifted to the shore and was caught by the old man and put into the net bag.

The old man put the net bag into the water and said excitedly, "I didn't expect to be so lucky today. I have gained something just after coming here. I have to come here more often in the future."

After saying that, he threw the fishing rod out again.

The other party ignored him. Chen Lin hesitated and didn't ask again. Instead, he tried to take out the short black stick.

Items from the nightmare world can be taken out even in the projected state, and they feel very real.

He observed it carefully, imitated the old man's previous action, grabbed the front end and pulled hard.

The 'stick' was immediately pulled out.

And it got longer and longer, and finally turned into a fishing rod exactly like the old man!

Chen Lin was secretly surprised and shook the fishing rod. It felt very strong, and a strange energy wave was generated at this time.

Following the example, he also made a swinging gesture and swung the fishing rod out.

Then he sat on a smooth stone and waited quietly. At the same time, he was secretly glad that he brought this fishing rod in, otherwise he would be in a dilemma.

However, it is also possible that if he did not bring a fishing rod, he would not be considered an angler and would not be affected by the 'returning empty-handed' rule.

After sitting for a while, Chen Lin became anxious again.

Because he doesn't know how to count the fish biting the hook and when to lift the rod.

in addition.

He is not a creature from the nightmare world and cannot stay here indefinitely. He does not have many immortal stones. If he cannot catch fish before the immortal stones are exhausted, he does not know what the consequences will be.

The more impatient you are, the less likely you are to catch something.

Time passed little by little, and the old man had caught several fish in a row, but he didn't even catch one.

The fishing rod didn't respond at all.

The energy of a fairy stone is exhausted.

Chen Lin couldn't sit still. He felt that his method was wrong. It was impossible to use only a fishing rod without a fishing line, not even a fishhook or bait. How could he catch fish?

The old man must have used some special method!

Although asking rashly may have some unpredictable consequences or anger the other party, Chen Lin decided to ask for advice.

But before he could open his mouth, he saw a black line shooting out from the lake.

Chen Lin was shocked and thought it was some kind of monster, but before he could react, the black line was already approaching.

It turned out to be a small boat.

Small wooden boat.

There was a huge golden toad lying on the bow of the boat.

With the speed at which the opponent controlled the wooden boat, he probably wouldn't be able to run away, and the opponent didn't attack directly, so Chen Lin simply sat there and didn't move.

Because the old man didn't move, it meant he was familiar with this monster.

"You two, hand over your fishing money!"

The golden toad speaks human words with a very loud voice.

Chen Lin was stunned when he heard this. There is still an owner of this lake, and there is a fee for fishing.

He looked at the old man. He didn't know what the fee was. He wanted to see how the other party operated first.

The old man showed an angry face and scolded the golden toad: "You toad, what are you shouting so loudly to scare away all my fish? Are you reluctant to part with the many fish I caught today?"

After saying that, he took out a nightmare coin and threw it over, saying: "Leave quickly, don't delay my fishing!"

The golden toad swallowed the nightmare coin into his mouth and did not get angry because of the old man's words.

Chen Lin looked surprised when he saw this.

It turns out that the fishing fee is Nightmare Coin. No wonder there are so many Nightmare Coins in the box besides the fishing rods. Feelings are used to pay the fee.

Although he was a little reluctant to part with it, this was not the time to be stingy, so he could only take out a nightmare coin and throw it over like the old man did.

The golden toad swallowed it in his mouth, said nothing more, and urged the wooden boat to turn into a black line and go away.

I don’t know if the fish were frightened, but after the wooden boat left, the old man didn’t catch a single fish.

Chen Lin felt that the anger on the other side was getting stronger and stronger, and he did not dare to ask any more questions. The other side even dared to scold the golden toad, and his strength must be high. If he pissed him off, he might not be able to deal with it.

suddenly.

He felt the fishing rod in his hand sink inexplicably, and he immediately reacted and hurriedly lifted the rod with all his strength.

Something the size of a little finger jumped out of the water.

Chen Lin didn't bother to check carefully and threw the fishing rod directly to the shore, for fear that what he caught would escape.

No matter what it is, as long as there is something gained, it is not empty-handed.

He stood up and went to the grass on the shore and found a small green shrimp bouncing there. He tried to touch it with a fishing rod, but the shrimp had no intention of fighting back.

I picked up another branch and picked it up after repeated tests to confirm that it was not dangerous.

Then he put away the fairy stone, and then tried to restore the fishing rod to its original state. He grabbed a small part of the rod and pushed it in, and the fishing rod really shrank back!

Chen Lin was amazed, put away the fishing rod, and slowly retreated towards the woods.

"Hmph, I'm satisfied with catching all the shrimps. If there were fishermen like you, the toad would wake up laughing even if it wasn't sleeping."

The old man did not look back, but seemed to know Chen Lin's actions well. Just as he put away the fishing rod, the other party's voice sounded, with a strong sarcasm.

Chen Lin looked happy after hearing this.

Although the other party's words were unpleasant, he didn't say anything about leaving empty-handed, which would have unpredictable consequences. In other words, he had satisfied the rules and could leave!

Sure enough, until the feeling of rejection became stronger and stronger and he was excluded from the nightmare world, the old man didn't say another word.

But before leaving, Chen Lin saw the other party raising the pole again.

A shiny golden box-like object was caught.

In the haze, I seemed to hear the old man's hearty laughter.
