Fenghu Lake is a small saltwater lake located in the southeast corner of Penglai Cave Sky, closely connected with the boundary wall.
Every twenty years, the second elder will come here to open the passage between the Xuan Ni Formation and the outside world, bringing in sea water from the outside world and replenishing the aquatic products in the lake. Every time on this day, all the fishermen in Penglai Dongtian will come to fish. Of course, there are also some good people who will come to watch this grand event.
In the center of the lake, the second elder was sitting cross-legged on the lake. It takes a lot of mana to activate the Xuan Ni Formation. He has been sitting here since the early morning to recuperate and recuperate to avoid anything going wrong: if the sea water pours in, it will be a serious problem.
Near noon, an old man with a white turban on his head blew the horn, and the fishermen chatting around Fenghu Lake all stood up, took the prepared fishing tools in their hands, and waited for the fish. of influx. Due to the small population of Dongtian, there were only thirteen fishermen in total who came to fish. Including the busy young people who came to watch, there were only about twenty people gathered on the shore, and Bai Lan was among them. , why does she rarely join in the fun?
Seeing that the time has come, the second elder has yet to activate the Xuan Ni Formation. Not only that, even the people are missing.
At the same time, in the woods less than a hundred meters away from the shore of Fenghu Lake, Guo Jia was lying under a big tree and observing secretly. He had no intention of leaving this time, but just wanted to see what the passage would look like when it was opened.
"You have been here for two hours, are you trying to cause trouble?" The second elder suddenly appeared behind Guo Jia and asked in a bad tone.
"Huh? Second Elder? Why are you here? Aren't you going to open a passage?" Guo Jia said in surprise.
"Answer my question!" the second elder said impatiently.
Guo Jia trembled and said, "I'm just here to watch the fishermen. Why are you guarding me?"
"I hope so. If you dare to cause trouble, you will no longer be able to live a stable life." The second elder sneered.
I saw a white cloud floating at the feet of the second elder, taking him away into the air.
Guo Jia swallowed and murmured to himself: "This old demon is so defensive. Fortunately, I held back today."
The second elder rode the clouds back to the center of the lake, sat cross-legged, and muttered words, as if he was chanting some bitter and difficult incantation. Not long after, layers of ripples appeared on the entire lake. The second elder made various dazzling hand seals with his hands. A blue light refracted from the bottom of the lake and shone on the place where the boundary wall meets the lake. Central location.
The invisible space boundary wall briefly vibrated, and the entire cave sky shook due to this effect.
A gap gradually formed in the location illuminated by the blue light. As the blue light continued to illuminate, the gap began to expand. It was not until the gap grew to a foot long that the blue light dimmed and returned to the bottom of the lake.
The second elder wiped the sweat from his face and his expression became serious. Although he has learned Taoist magic, his Taoism is not deep enough and he cannot accurately control the size of the space passage. This time, the opening is one foot long, which is twice as big as before, which doubles his pressure.
He cast a sinister glance in the direction of Guo Jia and cursed in his heart: If I hadn't been distracted by this brat, I wouldn't have made such a mistake. No, it's all his damn father's fault. This matter shouldn't be my responsibility in the first place.
After much thought, the second elder still did not rush to open the space channel. He drove Feiyun back to the shore.
"Second Elder, why haven't you started yet? We've been waiting all morning."
"Yes, Second Elder, my wife and children are waiting for me to go back and make seafood for them today."
"Is there something wrong with the space passage?"
All the fishermen surrounded the second elder and came forward to inquire about the situation.
"Noisy. Let Lao Li come over and see me." The second elder said angrily.
Not long after, the old man in the white turban who was blowing the horn came over and asked: "Second Elder, what do you want me to do for you?"
"I heard that when the saint opened the passage, it almost caused a flood because the passage was too wide. Was it you who lowered the water level and resolved the crisis?" asked the second elder. "It is true." The old man in the white turban replied.
"That's great. I didn't control the space channel well this time. It was opened a little wider than before. I hope you can lower the water level of Fenghu Lake in advance to avoid flooding." The second elder said happily.
"Now?" the old man in the white turban asked.
"That's right." The second elder replied.
"Wait a moment." The old man in the white turban nodded and waved the crowd to disperse.
I saw an old man with a white turban standing alone by the lake, concentrating on his luck. After a long time, I saw him pushing with his palms and shouting: "Surrender!"
However, nothing happened. Just when everyone was wondering, the water level of the lake suddenly dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye. Not long after, the water level of the lake, which was originally more than 20 meters deep, dropped by half.
"Okay, okay! Stop now." The second elder and other fishermen hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade them.
If it continues to drop like this, the fish that originally grew in Fenghu Lake will be killed. Fenghu Lake will experience seawater intrusion every twenty years. The fish that can survive in this environment are rare species with strong adaptability. They are treasures that protect the Fenghu Lake ecosystem and cannot be harmed.
Guo Jia, who was hiding in the woods watching the show, was stunned. The ability of this old man with a white turban was actually to reduce the specific heat capacity. He significantly reduced the specific heat capacity of the lake water, causing the lake water to evaporate on its own. It is a pity that this old man was born in Penglai Cave, a backward civilization. If he were to return to land, he would surely become a world-renowned environmental defender. This ability would be very convenient for treating sewage.
Seeing that the water level has dropped so much, the second elder can finally feel free to open the space channel.
"Father! I've been waiting for most of the day, why haven't the fish come yet?" Bai Lan ran over and asked, ignoring the obstruction of the young people around him.
The second elder smiled for a long time and said gently: "Come on, come on, I'll let the fish in right now."
Everyone couldn't help but look sideways. The second elder's bad temper was known to the whole village. They had seen him sneer a lot. This was the first time they saw this kind smile.
After noticing the strange looks around him, the second elder's expression immediately changed and he said angrily: "What are you looking at? Get ready to fish!"
After saying that, the second elder drove the clouds directly to the boundary wall where the gap was created, and recited a bitter and incomprehensible incantation. The twisted gap instantly turned into a straight line. After rotating horizontally ninety degrees, a gap suddenly opened. Kouzi.
The second elder quickly retreated, and then, the sea water surged in!
Before the seawater was about to fill Fengchi, the second elder took out a peach charm and said in his mouth: "Disease!"
The runes engraved on the peach charms suddenly flashed wildly, and rows of bright golden yellow characters floated out from the peach charms. They circled around the peach charms for seven days. The peach charms that were originally only the size of a young child's palm suddenly grew dozens of times in size. times, under the urging of the second elder's mantra, he quickly moved toward the opening space channel.
Penglai Cave is located in the waters five thousand meters below the deep sea. The average water pressure is about 516kgf/cm^2. The sea water spurting out from the space channel is so fierce that it can blast the human body into pieces. However, it is suppressed by this mysterious and mysterious giant peach charm. After stopping, Taofu pressed against the gushing sea water and stuck to the gap without slowing down.
The second elder made a series of hand seals, and all the yellow characters floating outside the peach charms shrank back into the peach charms. In just two breaths, the sound of the sea water disappeared. The second elder made the mudras of 闘, 林, and zai in succession, and the peach charm returned to its original state and floated back to the second elder's hand. At this time, the second elder was extremely weak. If he were not afraid of losing face, he would really like to lie on the ground and sleep.
The second elder narrowed his eyelids and said extremely tiredly: "Okay, you can start."
All the people on the shore cheered and cheered, finally catching fish after waiting for so long. Those who have superpowers will naturally use their superpowers to catch fish, and those who don’t will use fishing nets. Anyway, most of the fish that rush in are dead fish, and you will definitely not be able to catch them.
The second elder found an open space alone and began to meditate and regulate his breathing.
At this moment, Guo Jia stepped forward and asked with pretending concern: "Second Elder, are you okay?"
Guo Jia used the information visualization function of the omniscient system to secretly take a look at the physical condition of the second elder: Although the second elder is not an ability user, he has a substance similar to a golden elixir in his Dantian, which is very similar to the solid mental power of a level 7 ability user. The second elder's golden elixir was usually brilliant and sparkling, but at this moment it became extremely dim.
Guo Jia secretly rejoiced: It seems that he doesn't have to worry about the second elder when he escapes next time. After he finishes casting the spell, it will be the best time for him to escape from here.
"I'm very fine. What's wrong with you?" the second elder asked vigilantly.
In normal times, the second elder would have cursed me loudly. I am meditating and adjusting my breathing here. How dare you come over and talk nonsense? However, Guo Jia's behavior today was very weird. If he was in good condition, he would naturally not take Guo Jia seriously, but his mana is now exhausted and he cannot use it easily, otherwise it will damage his vitality.
"I heard that every fishing festival, some people eat poisonous fish, which poisons their stomachs. I'm here to help you identify which fish are edible. After all, I'm from the mainland, so I have a lot of knowledge." Guo Jia had already prepared. After picking up my words, I replied seriously.
"Oh? Then you go ahead." The second elder said dubiously.
Guo Jia nodded and went directly to the lake. Under the suspicious eyes of the second elder, he started the classification work.
Among the fishermen on the shore, there was one who was a late level 6 ice user. He used frozen ice to create three ice cellars, and most of the fish he caught were put into the ice cellars.
"This is a stone fish, which is very toxic and cannot be eaten; this is a faceless fish, which is too ugly to be eaten; hmm? This is a deep-sea angler!? Is there such a thing in the 5,000-meter deep sea? This must be a mutated species and cannot be eaten. "Red rock crab? This seems good. You should be able to eat it if you remove these poisonous spikes. "Fangtooth fish? Come on, who can eat it if it looks so scary?" Guo Jia stood in front of the ice cellar and explained while talking to himself Talking to himself, he used the fishing net to throw out the fish that he found disgusting.
"This fish is edible! It's just ugly! Don't waste food!" Bai Lan came over and pointed at the stone fish that Guo Jia had thrown away.
"This fish is poisonous!" Guo Jia glared.
"You're talking nonsense! You can eat this fish by removing its fins and hard skin, and then taking out the poison sac inside. It's the most delicious thing. Stop lying to people! Come and see, everyone, Guo Jia is throwing it around Our fish!" Bai Lan explained.
When the fishermen saw that Guo Jia was wasting the fruits of their labor, they suddenly became angry and rolled up their sleeves. But who is Guo Jia? Seafood hater. He hates all seafood, and even at the risk of being beaten, he will fight to prevent these ugly deep-sea monster fish from falling into his mouth.
Seeing Guo Jia mingling with the fishermen on the shore, the second elder relaxed his brows and murmured to himself: "It seems that I am too worried."
