The red-scaled snake coiled up in a circle and lay dormant next to the blood lotus.
Zhou Shan's mental power swept over the red-scaled snake, but the latter did not notice it at all. It seemed to be practicing. Zhou Shan concentrated his mind and gathered more mental power to focus on the red-scaled snake.
At this time, the red-scaled snake immediately became transparent in front of his eyes. Through the scales, he could see the situation inside the red-scaled snake. The extremely strong energy and blood were rushing, as well as the spine and internal organs. Be clear.
As his mental power increased, his attributes reached '178', approaching 200. Zhou Shan could not only do 'inner vision', but also 'see through'. He could concentrate on penetrating the movement of qi and blood in the meridians of the human body. .
If these abilities are used in actual combat, one can see through the flow of the opponent's aura and the trajectory of the energy and blood running in the body, thereby predicting the opponent's moves, and even discerning flaws in the opponent's moves.
In other words, you can clearly see any hidden diseases, injuries, and weak points in the opponent's body that have not been properly cultivated and are weak points. You can seize the opponent's flaws and weaknesses and kill them with one blow.
"If this red-scaled snake swallows and refines all the blood lotuses, it will probably transform into a demon."
Zhou Shan murmured to himself in a low voice.
At this time, he was not in a hurry to enter the water to deal with the red-scaled snake.
There are too many fishermen around now. If he enters the water to deal with the red-scaled snake, it will definitely cause a stir and even attract people from the river patrol team. When the time comes, there will definitely be a precious blood lotus in the water that cannot be concealed.
Only if you come quietly at night when no one is around, you won't make too much noise.
In Jinsha Bay at night, there are basically no fishermen staying.
Even if the red-scale snake swallows the blood lotus, it is impossible to eat it all at once. Judging from the medicinal power contained in its body, it will take at least a day to completely refine it.
Zhou Shan diverted his attention from the red-scaled snake and continued searching at the bottom of the river.
Perhaps it was because of the strange red-scaled snakes that lurked here. Zhou Shan searched the area but could not find any precious fish. After he noted down the approximate location of the blood lotus, he left the waters and changed his mind. Search somewhere.
"This is the golden carp!"
In another place, Zhou Shan did not find the tiger striped fish, but he found the golden carp, one of the unique treasure fish in Jinshawan.
Golden carp looks no different from ordinary carp, but its body is golden and its scales are as hard as metal, but very thin. There is an elite division in Baisha County called the Golden Scale Guards. Everyone is wearing golden scale armor and is invulnerable. Invulnerable to water and fire.
The golden scale armor worn by this golden scale guard is made from the scales of the golden carp.
Although wearing heavy armor can make you invulnerable, heavy armor is too bulky, and the scales of golden carp are very thin. Even if it is made into a piece of armor, the total weight will not exceed five kilograms, but it is heavy. Armor can easily weigh dozens of kilograms, or even hundreds of kilograms. Wearing it will greatly affect your movement.
More importantly, the golden scale armor is not only hard and light in weight, but also can remove part of the power to a certain extent when being attacked, reducing the force blow received.
Therefore, although there are only a hundred Jinlin Guards under the county government, they are enough to suppress most of the forces in Baisha County.
The meat of golden carp can warm and nourish the body and replenish congenital physical weakness.
In the fish market, the price of a pound of golden carp is thirteen taels of silver, which is more than the price of red-backed saury and horned turtle.
Immediately, Zhou Shan's mental power surged, and he used the soul-deterring technique to interfere with the golden carp's perception.
The golden carp was affected by Zhou Shan's mental power and slowly swam in the direction of Zhou Shan. When it approached the black-topped boat, the golden carp slowly surfaced from the water.
But as far as the golden carp knew, it was still swimming leisurely under the water, without any sense of danger.
Seeing the golden carp emerging from the water, Zhou Shan immediately picked up the net and fished the golden carp out, then put it into the bucket and covered it with a wooden lid to prevent the golden carp from jumping out.
"Where am I?"
After catching the golden carp, Zhou Shan stopped consuming mental energy and eliminated the interference to the golden carp. The golden carp regained consciousness and found that he had left the water and was in a small bucket. He was immediately confused. The state of the circle.
Then, the golden carp jumped up with all its strength and hit the lid of the bucket, but it was all to no avail. After struggling for more than ten minutes, the golden carp seemed to have exhausted all its strength and calmed down after finding that it could not escape.
Zhou Shan continues to search for treasure fish.
A few hours later.
Zhou Shan caught three treasure fish, a bull-horned soft-shell turtle, and a nest of golden jade shrimps, a total of more than a dozen. In addition to the red-scale snake, there was also a crab spirit, but no tiger was found. Tattooed fish.
But think about it, if the tiger striped fish were so easy to find, with the strength of the Fisher King Village, they would have already gathered them together, and the Giant Spirit Sect would not let the fishing gang take action, and mobilize all the fishermen to catch the tiger striped fish together.
"This tiger striped fish is really rare."
After taking a look at the sky, Zhou Shan prepared to search for half an hour.
If there were still no tiger fish, he would have no choice but to go back. But even if he didn't catch the tiger fish, this trip was not in vain. Not only did he find the precious blood lotus, but he also caught three precious fish and a bull horn. Turtles, a dozen golden jade shrimps.
Such a harvest can be said to be very 'rich'.
Time passed little by little.
Soon, the sun will set.
"Tigerfish!"
Just when Zhou Shan was about to make one final inspection and return to the fishing dock if nothing was found, the mental power he released found a fish with black and yellow patterns on its body and a big head.
This fish is a tiger fish.
Tiger fish has a row of sharp giant teeth and has a fierce temperament. It feeds on other fish. However, the meat of tiger fish is delicious and can strengthen the body. Moreover, the bones of tiger fish are rich in nutrients and can be ground into powder and swallowed. , has the effect of strengthening bones.
The Giant Spirit Sect needs tiger fish because the young sect master has reached a critical moment in his cultivation and needs to use the bone-strengthening effect contained in the tiger fish bones to enter the bone forging realm in one fell swoop.
Now that the tiger striped fish has been discovered, it will be easy to handle.
Under the shroud of mental power, the tiger fish's senses were affected by the soul-destroying technique, and it swam obediently in the direction of Zhou Shan. Then it was fished out of the hand by the net and put into a separate bucket.
Otherwise, this tiger fish will eat all the other treasure fish and shrimps, and only the golden carp and horned turtle can escape with their hard scales and carapace.
“Caught a tiger striper on the first day, so that’s a good start.”
Zhou Shan was in a good mood and rowed back to the fishing pier with his double paddle.
