I saw that while Ma Dayue and Lu Laoliu were amazed, there was still a hint of fear on their faces.
Although it was funny in my heart, I still understood it.
After all, it is a giant toad weighing hundreds of kilograms!
Ordinary people would probably feel a little numb on the scalp and get goosebumps on their body just thinking about it.
Especially since I said that this toad spirit is quite advanced...
"Village Chief Ma, Uncle Lu, don't worry. I'm here and it's broad daylight. That big toad can't make it out of the waves."
I said some words of relief again.
I already had a rough idea of how to deal with the toad spirit.
While staring at the water surface of the fish pond, he walked slowly along the bank of the fields.
Of course, Ma Dayue and Lu Laoliu followed me cautiously, not daring to get too far away. It seems that they are afraid that the toad monster will suddenly come out and eat them both in one bite!
"Uncle Lu, where is the deepest part of your fish pond?"
I asked.
Because the toad spirit is quite large, it will definitely feel uncomfortable staying in shallow water, so it will definitely stay in the deep water area of the fish pond.
Lu Laoliu quickly pointed to the northeast corner.
"Brother Wu, it's over there! I had already made arrangements when I originally dug this fish pond. The square area in the northeast corner, about fifty meters on a side, has a water depth of at least five or six meters."
Good guy!
This fish pond is indeed dug deep.
Five or six meters...
It seems that Lu Laoliu is determined to raise big fish and sell them to rich people in nearby Yangtong Town and Lianghe Town a little further away at high prices!
"Come on, let's go over there and have a look. Uncle Lu, you and Village Chief Ma bring a fishing net with you. The strongest one. Do me a little favor later."
"Okay, Brother Wu, no problem."
Both of them agreed immediately.
But Ma Dayue quickly asked again.
"Brother Wu, that... won't be life-threatening, right?"
"Definitely not, don't worry, Village Chief Ma. By the way, bring another bucket and put a few large eels in it."
After that, we went back to the thatched house where Lu Laoliu usually kept vigil and got an old plastic bucket. We went to find a few eel holes in the nearby fields and dug out a few old eels and put them in them.
Then I walked ahead with the bucket, and they took the fishing nets and came with me to the field bank in the deep water area of the fish pond.
Standing here, looking at the turbid water, I sniffed hard.
really!
There was a faint strange fishy smell hanging around.
It doesn't smell like a normal fish pond.
Ordinary people - even ordinary practitioners may not be able to smell it, but because I was born with extremely light horoscopes, my sensitivity to evil things is much higher than ordinary people.
Especially after following the master, as one's own magic practice improves, this kind of perception also improves.
I pointed at this body of water and said to the two of them.
"That toad spirit is probably hiding in the mud deep under the water near here!"
"It's still daytime, its demonic energy is suppressed, and most of its strength can't be used."
"So I decided to immediately pull it out from the bottom of the water and end the battle as soon as possible."
"Otherwise, as the sun sets and evening approaches, it will become more powerful the closer it gets to night!"
Of course, Ma Dayue and Lu Laoliu nodded vigorously, indicating that they would do whatever I said.
This very cooperative attitude also makes me feel very satisfied.
I also found a trick...
That is, every time when I go to help solve evil spirits, I will use a little trick before taking action - showing some not very powerful but very strange methods.
In this way, you have a high probability of winning the respect of your “employer”!
Moreover, you can also use "employer" as "helper" - I did this in Xia's courtyard before.
I directed Ma Dayue and Lu Laoliu to lay the strong fishing net flat on the field ridge and extend it to both sides.
They stood on both sides, holding the fishing net tightly in their hands.
And I am standing in the fishing net in the middle, ready to start... fishing for toads!
Fishing for toads is actually a common form of entertainment for rural children.
First get a thin bamboo pole, about one meter to one and a half meters long. One end of the bamboo pole is wrapped with a thin rubber thread, and an iron hook is used to thread the end of the thin thread with earthworms or shelled snail meat as bait.
Then you can go fishing for toads in the rice fields - it's essentially the same as fishing, but much less difficult.
After all, toads are stupid and greedy, but they are much easier to catch than fish.
When we were young, we often went to the fields to fish for toads as a group of three or five children. After you catch it, you can play with it by yourself, or you can take it home and throw it into the chicken pen and duck pen to become food for the chickens and ducks...
However, since I was ten years old, I have never gone to the fields to catch toads.
I originally thought that there would be no chance in the future.
I never expected that I would give it a try again today!
Of course, the tools are completely different.
I asked Lu Laoliu to prepare a set of relatively good quality fishing rods, and then the bait used to catch that guy was the old eel in the bucket.
Putting the bucket on the field ridge, I stretched out my hand and pulled out a slippery eel.
The other hand held a small knife and turned it flexibly.
Poof!
A circular wound was cut just below the eel's head.
Then put the knife against the bone and pull it down hard.
Then the eel was removed from the bones and the meat was turned into two pieces of meat...still dripping with eel blood.
The fishy smell of this thing is also very strong!
It's very easy to provoke some ferocious things in the water.
I took out another piece of talisman paper, muttered something in my mouth, and then poured a ray of Qi into it.
It burned with a roar, and the talisman ashes flew away in the wind - but it was attracted by an invisible gravity, and it was all stained on the eel meat with this drop of blood.
Suddenly, the fishy smell of eel blood increased several times!
Even Ma Dayue and Lu Laoliu, who were standing far away on both sides of me, smelled it and felt a little uncomfortable. They subconsciously covered their noses.
This is my newly learned [Difference Enhancing Talisman] - the effect is that it can greatly amplify and enhance the characteristics of some things!
Although it is not a particularly advanced spell, it does not seem to have any direct effect when fighting evil cultivators and bad guys. But it's quite interesting.
At this time, using it on this bait eel meat will increase the chance of success!
Therefore, the Xuanmen predecessors created various spells with different effects and ever-changing spells, which are all useful. Not only those spells used to attack, defend, fight, exorcise ghosts, and eliminate demons are good...
I threaded the blood-drip eel meat with the fishy smell that had been strengthened by the [Differential Enhancing Talisman] on the fishhook, and then swung it forward with force with the fishing rod.
With a splash, the bait fell into the fish pond.
There are ripples on the water.
"Okay, now we just wait for the toad spirit to take the bait."
I said calmly.
Time passed minute by minute.
I stood motionless, silent, just staring at the floating fishing rod on the water.
Ma Dayue and Lu Laoliu were also silent, staring at the water of the fish pond.
The surroundings became very quiet and the atmosphere became somewhat dull.
To be honest, I am not as relaxed as I say!
After all, for a monster, the greater the difference between its body shape and that of an animal, the higher its moral character.
According to general experience, a toad is roughly the size of an adult's fist.
But according to Lu Laoliu, this one must weigh at least seventy or eighty kilograms - or even hundreds of kilograms!
I'm afraid I don't have a short time to live.
Although toads themselves are very low-level animals, compared with beasts such as mammals that activate their intelligence and cultivate into monsters, they are much weaker at the same level.
But to be able to grow so big, he must be very strong!
I estimate that it is not much weaker than Bai Su.
If I fight this beast, I won't say it will be a hard fight, but it will definitely take a lot of effort...
Fortunately, I am a cautious person and was prepared.
As long as it is caught, it can be trapped in this fishing net.
It will be easy to deal with then!
Finally, the sun in the sky has slowly moved to the western sky.
When the sun began to turn from blazing to a faint yellow flavor, the fishing rod float on the water finally moved!
At the same time, I felt a huge force coming along the fishing rod.
It almost felt like the entire fishing rod was broken.
The water surface stirred up waves.
I can also smell it in my nose, and a strong demonic aura spreads from under the water.
"Here he comes! That beast finally took the bait. Uncle Lu, the village chief, you two, be prepared and listen to my command."
I yelled, and at the same time I took out a charm and slapped it on the fishing rod.
In an instant, a faint light burst out from the spell, flowing along the bamboo poles and fishing lines like water and into the water...
This is my plan to take a preemptive strike and make this big toad a little more honest. Otherwise, I’m afraid I won’t be able to catch it!
