My Farming-Style Cultivation Is Way Too Steady - Chapter 43

Chapter 43: Meeting Zhao Ziyue and agreeing to meet at Black Dragon Pool

Xu Changqing was surprised to see that he was catching more and more fish.

Unexpectedly, the spirit rice wine has this effect.

This is truly an unexpected discovery.

“Haha… I can brag about this for a year when I get back.” Hu Bugui grinned.

Although there was no air force before, the number of them was never large.

This time it exploded.

In just a short time, nearly a hundred big silver carp were caught.

Xu Changqing looked across the river and suddenly froze.

The person opposite seemed to have given up on the idea of fishing.

Holding a fishing rod in one hand.

He was holding onto the fishing net with one hand.

They walked step by step towards them across the water.

In no time at all, they were almost within reach.

And so, the three of them stared at each other, wide-eyed.

Look at me.

I’m looking at you.

For a moment, no one spoke.

The atmosphere became increasingly awkward.

“Um…” After a long while, Zhao Ziyue was the first to lose his composure.

“What’s the matter?” Hu Bugui looked at the other party warily.

Zhao Ziyue gave an awkward smile: “May I ask what kind of bait you use?”

“No way.” Hu Bugui refused decisively.

Taking advantage of the other party’s inattention, Xu Changqing secretly put the spirit rice wine into his small storage bag.

Suddenly, only a faint smell of alcohol remained in the surroundings.

In addition, there was a watermelon that was half-ripe.

Seeing that the two were somewhat wary, Zhao Ziyue realized that his questioning earlier had been a bit excessive, so he waved his hand and said, “Don’t misunderstand, I’m not trying to steal your bait, I’m just curious.”

Xu Changqing said, “We’re not familiar with you, why should we say anything?”

Zhao Ziyue suddenly realized, and then introduced himself: “My surname is Zhao, my given name is Ziyue, I have awakened the water spirit root, and I am a foundation-building disciple of the Imperial Water Pavilion.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Changqing and Hu Bugui were both taken aback.

Good heavens, he’s actually a fisherman in the Foundation Establishment stage.

No wonder they can walk on water.

“And who are you two?” Zhao Ziyue blinked.

Hu Bugui was a little confused, but upon seeing this, he grinned and introduced, “So this is Senior Brother Zhao, who is in the Foundation Establishment stage. I am Hu Bugui, a formal disciple of the Spirit Beast Valley, and this is Xu Changqing, a formal disciple of the Spirit Field.”

Xu Changqing frowned slightly. Why did this guy reveal the real information?

What if the other party has ill intentions?

Drinking is indeed harmful.

It seems I can’t bring Lingmi wine out next time.

Zhao Ziyue nodded slightly: “Greetings, fellow junior brothers. If you don’t mind, could I join you?”

“Huh?” Xu Changqing and Hu Bugui were quite surprised.

Zhao Ziyue shrugged helplessly: “I’m out of fish over there.”

“Sure, of course.” This time, Hu Bugui didn’t refuse.

Xu Changqing saw it all, but had no idea what this guy was thinking.

The other party is a complete stranger.

Fortunately, he had already put away the spirit rice wine in advance.

Next, Zhao Ziyue simply chose a spot next to them.

Then we went fishing together.

However, because there was no more spirit rice wine to continue using as bait.

So the three of them didn’t catch many fish in the time that followed.

As afternoon approached, Zhao Ziyue, holding a half-ripe watermelon, asked, “Do you two junior brothers know of [Black Dragon Pool]?”

“Black Dragon Pool?” Xu Changqing looked bewildered.

Hu Bugui’s eyes widened: “It’s at the border of the Spirit Field and the Spirit Beast Valley, that legendary Black Dragon Pool where a demonic dragon is said to have emerged?”

“Not bad,” Zhao Ziyue affirmed.

“Why did he suddenly bring this up?” Xu Changqing wondered.

Zhao Ziyue glanced at the two men and, seeing their different reactions, continued, “Your bait is indeed very effective, but fishing here is pointless.”

How about we set a time to go to Black Dragon Pool and try out the dragonfish there?

Upon hearing the words “dragon fish,” Hu Bugui instantly sobered up considerably.

His gaze shifted back and forth between Xu Changqing and Zhao Ziyue.

It seems like they are weighing something.

“My two junior brothers, there’s no rush. Take your time to consider it.”

“It’s getting late, I’ll be leaving now.” Zhao Ziyue put all his spoils into his storage bag, and before leaving, he suddenly took out a communication talisman.

But he did not hand it to Xu Changqing.

Instead, it was delivered to Hu Bugui.

They didn’t rush them.

He just watched with a smile.

Hu Bugui did not hesitate and immediately took it.

Zhao Ziyue showed a satisfied expression: “Junior brother, contact me when you’ve thought it over.”

Then, he walked away step by step across the river.

Before long, the person was already over a hundred meters away.

They quickly disappeared from their sight.

“What exactly is wrong with you?” Xu Changqing stood up and questioned him with a serious expression.

“Sigh.” Hu Bugui sighed, then replied, “I was a little confused just now, and I thought that the other party was a Foundation Establishment disciple, so I decided to make friends with him.”

Xu Changqing’s expression darkened slightly: “I meant going to Black Dragon Pool.”

Hu Bugui paused for a moment, then explained, “There is a kind of dragon fish in Black Dragon Pool, which is said to contain a thin bloodline of a demonic dragon, so each one is very valuable.”

“And then?” Xu Changqing raised an eyebrow, neither confirming nor denying.

Hu Bugui gritted his teeth and simply told the truth: “In the Spirit Beast Valley, there is a Golden Core stage fisherman who has very strict conditions for accepting disciples, one of which is rare fish.”

Therefore, I want to catch an arowana to see if I can become its apprentice!

Upon learning that the other party had this idea, Xu Changqing was speechless.

Let alone in the [Dongting Immortal Sect].

Even anywhere.

Everyone wants to improve themselves in order to change their identity and status.

Hu Bugui glanced around and, seeing that no one was nearby, said seriously, “I don’t want to keep selling dirty, smelly excrement, and I don’t want to beg people for cooperation everywhere.”

My dear reader, there’s more to reading—even more exciting content awaits!

As a friend, you should understand, right?

“But…” Xu Changqing hesitated for a moment, then continued, “This spirit rice wine may not be effective.”

Hu Bugui took a deep breath: “Let’s give it a try, what if it works?”

“What do you plan to do?” Xu Changqing asked in a gentler tone.

Hu Bugui immediately laughed and said, “You don’t need to get involved. I’ll go with Zhao Ziyue.”

“Okay.” Xu Changqing took out the remaining half a catty of spirit rice wine.

Hu Bugui took the hand and said, “Even if it doesn’t succeed, at least I’ll get to know a Foundation Establishment stage water elemental root, which is still worthwhile for me.”

As a friend, Xu Changqing naturally hoped that Hu Bugui could catch a dragonfish and even successfully become his apprentice.

Therefore, since the other party has already considered the consequences, there is no need for me to interfere.

Ultimately, the two are not related.

They are not related by blood.

There’s no need to get involved.

…

It was evening.

Xu Changqing finally returned home.

This fishing trip was very fruitful.

There were dozens of large silver carp in the small storage bag.

If you eat one a day, it will last for two months.

“Woof woof!” The little yellow dog wagged its tail excitedly.

“Cluck cluck!” The guinea fowl’s eyes darted around.

Seeing this, Xu Changqing felt completely relaxed: “Indeed, nowhere is as good as home. I should just stick to farming from now on.”

He immediately went into the kitchen and began cooking with practiced ease.

I ate it myself.

The dog ate it.

The guinea fowl ate it.

Finally, everyone had a delicious piece of braised fish in their bowl!
