The temporary rest house is a small wooden house, right on the edge of the lake.
The conditions were poor and the bedding was dirty.
Lin Yu immediately packed up, threw away the bedding, took out the sundries from the storage bag, and replaced it with his own straw mat and a thin quilt.
In the evening, Xu Yang and Shen Manyun didn't have time to eat, so they began to set up formations.
"There are many high-grade fire formations of this level, Fellow Daoist. We are much safer. If we can't defeat them, we just need to enter the formation immediately."
Shen Manyun was excited and his face glowed red.
"You still have to be careful, moles often don't play according to the rules." Xu Yang still maintained the due caution.
For some reason, Shen Manyun felt very safe when staying with Xu Yang.
It was clear that Xu Yang was cautious and cautious in what he said, but it always felt like he had a way to deal with it.
Shen Manyun has indeed studied the formation. Under her settings, formation flags surrounded the house to form a formation.
After that, she set up warning arrays for several places in the distance where people might be hiding.
This formation is very simple and may not be completely effective, but it can provide peace of mind.
It was already midnight when I finished this.
At this time, the three of them stayed in the room, lit candles, took a mouthful of hot broth, and ate meat.
Xu Yang's sense of breath is sensing his surroundings all the time.
Unfortunately, the distance is limited, so we still have to go out on patrol.
Otherwise, if there is a loss of spiritual fish in the area they are guarding, they will need to bear the responsibility.
After a good meal, it’s already late into the night.
This is the time when you really need to be vigilant.
"Yu'er, you stay in the house, don't go anywhere. If something happens, activate the formation. This formation will be difficult for even a monk in the late stage of Qi training to handle."
Xu Yang repeatedly warned me, and Lin Yu repeatedly said that I was fine.
"Husband, Sister Shen, please remember not to separate!"
Lin Yu was nervous and warned.
Shen Manyun lost his former aloofness and became serious. He patrolled hand in hand with Xu Yang. After walking around, he was convinced that nothing weird happened.
Xu Yang stopped by a tree. At this moment, he restrained his whole body's breath. His presence here was greatly reduced. His breath turned into long tentacles, extending far and wide across the water.
Soon, he found a group of fish in the water, which was the spiritual fish here!
"Five hundred and thirty-six! Well, the number is about the same."
Most of these spiritual fish live in groups, just like the spiritual bluefish he caught last time.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, I need to relieve myself." Shen Manyun said sheepishly.
"Uh... then go ahead and don't go far."
Shen Manyun nodded and left.
Xu Yang looked around, wary of his surroundings, his breath lingering on Shen Manyun's side, not because he was voyeuristic, but mainly to prevent anything from happening to her.
At this moment, in the darkness of the night, there was a wave in the water swimming rapidly towards the school of fish.
"Um?"
Xu Yang said nothing, and with a flick of his finger, his acupuncture hand shot out of the air, piercing the airflow, and shot into the water like a bullet.
Poof!
A half-meter-long fish with a protruding mouth and full of sharp teeth floated on the water. If you look closely, you can see that there is a bloody hole in the fish's belly.
"Sawfish."
Xu Yang was extremely shocked when he sensed the appearance of the fish. He didn't expect to encounter this kind of saw-toothed fish just after he came here!
This shows that there should be many such fish hiding in the water. They hide in caves during the day and come out to hunt spiritual fish at night.
He walked on the waves and retrieved the sawtooth fish.
Just when Shen Manyun came back, he was surprised to see the carcass of the sawtooth fish.
Next, the two continued patrolling.
One night passed, Xu Yang caught two more sawtooth fish, but as for Shen Manyun, naturally he caught nothing.
"Xu Yang, can you teach me some tricks? How did you discover Sawtooth Fish?"
Last night, she followed Xu Yang and saw with her own eyes that he easily found the sawtooth fish in the water and then killed the fish with a flick of his finger, which convinced her.
"I can teach you, and we can even share the sawtooth fish we catch. If I give you a fish, I will share the credit with you."
Xu Yang said: "But the premise is that you can keep everything about me secret? Fellow Taoist Shen is a smart man, and he should know that trust between fellow Taoists is priceless."
Shen Manyun naturally understood the implication.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, please rest assured."
"Well, as for the secret, it's very simple. I used to focus on farming, but unfortunately I didn't get much. After that, I simply spent a lot of money and bought a magic technique on the black market with the last bit of money left by my parents."
"I didn't expect that my daily practice is not fast, but I have made good progress in practicing this technique. This technique has given me a strong sense of perception, so I am very good at catching fish. Well, I can gain a lot by going into the mountains to collect herbs. , also relies on this technique."
Xu Yang made up a reason.
Shen Manyun did not doubt that he was there and lamented Xu Yang's good luck.
In order not to attract attention, the two decided to hand over the sawtooth fish on the last day.
In the morning, Xu Yang glanced at the panel.
[Last night, my wife stayed alone in the empty room, lonely at night, and gained 5 attribute values. 】
Xu Yang: "..."
You must take good care of your wife, right?
Last night, he actually considered that the reward would be less.
But I had never tried it before, so I decided to try it. Sure enough, the reward was much less.
"Hey, it seems that I must feed my wife before patrolling tonight."
At night, the three of them had a good meal.
Shen Manyun was about to go out with Xu Yang when Xu Yang took the initiative and said, "Fellow Daoist Shen, you go ahead. My wife and I have something to talk about."
Shen Manyun was weird: "This young couple talks a lot."
"Okay." Shen Manyun left.
"Husband, what are you going to say?" Lin Yu thought Xu Yang had something important to say, and blinked.
The next moment, Xu Yang carried her to the bed: "Madam, it's a long night, let me stay with you first."
Lin Yu suddenly blushed with embarrassment, blinked her eyes, and said sheepishly: "Really, Sister Shen is still outside, if she hears... oops..."
Xu Yang pressed forward directly, but Lin Yu didn't care, because when she thought about Shen Manyun hearing it outside, she felt...excited!
Yes, it's exciting.
So, she used all the skills in the Fangzhongshu book that Xu Yang bought two days ago.
It took two full sticks of incense before Xu Yang got dressed.
Lin Yu was so tired that she was sweating, so she fetched water and gave herself a simple scrub.
"Haha, if Fellow Daoist Xu doesn't come out, I'm going to rush in and see what you couple are doing!!"
Shen Manyun saw Xu Yang come out with a happy face, especially Lin Yu fetching water for a bath. She didn't know what they had done. She was speechless. She didn't even look at where this place was, but she still had something to do.
"Ahem, Fellow Daoist Shen, please calm down. It's normal for couples to do things, right?"
"Don't even look at where this place is."
"Well, isn't it already dark? I'm telling you to hurry up."
Shen Manyun was even more speechless, remembering what Lin Yu told her last time that Xu Yang was in great demand.
Now it seems that there is no exuberance, it is simply a 'dog', a kind of teddy dog in the mortal world.
This night, Xu Yang caught three sawtooth fish again and killed an osprey!
Shen Manyun still gained nothing.
It's not that she's not good at it. She can deal with the osprey, but she can't even detect the sawfish in the water, let alone deal with it.
As for the Zhou family, the beast-controlling family has lost many ospreys recently, so fewer ospreys come here. The only one that came last night was discovered by Xu Yang in advance, which made Shen Manyun very depressed.
She now deeply doubts the necessity of cooperating with Xu Yang.
However, Xu Yang still gave her the credit for a sawtooth fish.
The next day, Xu Yang looked at the rewards he had received.
[My wife felt extremely stimulated and satisfied last night, and gained 30 attribute values. 】
'Sure enough, Yu'er likes this kind of stimulation. Tsk tsk, I really can't tell. '
…………
…………
On the third day, Xu Yang had another good harvest, killing three sawtooth fish.
"Hehe, I'm afraid the next week's family will be anxious!"
Shen Manyun smiled. In the past three days, the Zhou family lost nine sawtooth fish.
Living in these three days, Xu Yang also knew the situation here. This place was in charge of a monk named Zuo Anwu who was in the late stage of Qi training.
However, I heard that this man had been cultivating in hiding and rarely came down, so many people had never seen him.
The person who came down to inspect was one of his junior brothers, named Xu Lei, whose cultivation level was at the sixth level of Qi training.
He has a decent cultivation level and a good temper. The few times we meet, he shouts and shouts, and the casual cultivators who come here to help are avoided.
"Xu Yang! The guard in the west area died last night. Now go over there and check the formation to see if there is anything missing."
Xu Lei walked towards Xu Yang, looking unhappy.
The guard in the west area is dead, and there is currently no manpower, so we can only draw it from other places.
"What, Sister Hong and his wife are dead?" Shen Manyun's face condensed slightly when he heard this.
They had just come over, and Sister Hong and his wife came over to say hello. Unexpectedly, in just three days, there was a separation between yin and yang, which was disappointing.
"According to the rules when we came here, Fellow Taoist Shen Manyun and I are only responsible for the east side, and other places are not under our control."
Xu Yang refused without hesitation. Here, even during the day, you have to be careful and not separate easily.
Moreover, if you promise Xu Lei once, he will call you a second or third time!
"What did you say? Reject me?"
Xu Lei's eyes narrowed, and he doubted for a moment whether he heard it wrong.
