Chapter 27: Regretted Until His Intestines Turned Green

  At least 1.8 meters tall, with a slender figure like a white bone porcelain doll, and looking young enough to be a student.

  "Hey young man, was it you who caught that big grass carp last week?" asked a sixty-year-old old man.

  Others looked at Shangguan and perked up their ears.

  Being stared at by so many old men, Shangguan Nian was a bit uncomfortable. Everyone else had beautiful women surrounding them, but when it came to him, they were surrounded by old men instead. This difference in status was just too great, where could he go to reason with that?

  "Hehe, good luck." Shangguan Nian smiled and acknowledged it.

  It really is this person in front of us, these several middle-aged and elderly fishing friends are no longer calm.

  "Really you!" The old man was surprised: "Young man, how did you catch all the big fish? Is there any secret?"

  Came twice, caught two fish, and they were both big ones, it's too coincidental to say that it's a coincidence, there's no reason for this.

  Liu Yilan was surprised at first, but then she felt only excitement and pride. Just as she was about to show off in front of several old men, Officer Nang Ren shook his head: "There's no secret, just good luck."

  "Big brother......" Liu Yilan couldn't understand why Shangguan Nian had this ability but deliberately concealed it.

  The official smiled and pointed to the bucket, saying to the old men: "If there's really a secret, wouldn't I catch big fish every day? But look at my bucket, it still has some small ones!"

  Several old men were paying attention to fishing before, and didn't notice this side at all, so they didn't know that the three fish were caught by Liu Yilan. Liu Yilan wanted to speak but stopped, her small face flushed red, while several old men responded with a unanimous "oh".

  "I'm telling you! But kid, you're also extremely lucky. Fish this big aren't common, and you won't see them more than a few times a year."

  "Yes! Before this, in April, someone caught a big carp that was almost one meter long."

  "Now big fish are hard to catch, catching one is news."

  "Hehe, I've been fishing here for over a decade, and the biggest record is just a grass carp of over 70 cm, can't compare!"

  Several old men sighed and envied the official's luck in going against heaven.

  Shangguan Nengren smiled and said: "Thank you, uncles, for your support. If you want it, I'll sell the fish to you."

  "Want to sell it to us? How much?" Several people were really interested, and big fish are rare, let alone this live big carp! Take it home and raise it, and let relatives and friends visit and admire.

  Shangguan Nengren smiled: "I just want one hundred, but I don't care about the weight of the money."

  "One hundred? Alright! I'll take it." The old man in his sixties immediately took out the money.

  "Hey! I'm telling you, Old Zhang, you're not being fair! We also want this fish, what do you say we do?" Someone was unhappy. One hundred yuan isn't expensive, although after buying it, they still need to pay for weighing, but big fish are hard to come by, so even if it costs a bit more, it's worth it.

  "What do you say we do? There's only one fish, at most I'll treat you to a bowl of wontons, and you won't bother me again." Old Zhang knew he was in trouble, if he didn't pay some price, these few people would definitely not let him off, so he could only spend money to avoid disaster.

  "Wontons? Forget it, wontons will be wontons!" A few people got benefits and let go of Old Zhang's head. Old Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, took out several large tickets from his pocket, pulled one out and handed it to the capable official, chuckled and said: "Young man, take a look at the authenticity."

  Shangguan Nengren took the money and put it in his pocket, laughing: "No need to explain, I still don't trust you, sir! How did you get this fish away?"

  "Which of you guys brought a net? Hurry up and lend it to me." Old Zhang asked several people who took advantage of him.

  "I've got it, wait a minute." A middle-aged man rushed back to fetch the net bag. After a while, he brought the net bag back, and Officer Neng quickly put the big green fish into it. The big green fish was still struggling, and it scratched his hand with its scales.

  "Haha, young man, thanks! If you catch another big fish in the future, remember to look for old Zhang!" With the big fish in hand, Old Zhang's face was flushed with excitement, and he couldn't wait to take the fish home and show it off to his friends.

  "Slow down!" Just then, Xiao Ping's head ran back without knowing when he saw Lao Zhang's hand holding a big green fish. Suddenly, his face was full of regret and forced a smile: "Old brother, how much did you buy this fish for? Will you sell it to me?"

  "No way!" Old Zhang said resolutely: "I still want to take this fish home and raise it! No matter how much money, I won't sell."

  "Wait, I'll give you 500, how about that?" Little Ping didn't give up and immediately offered 500.

  "Not for sale!" Old Zhang's face seemed particularly displeased with Little Ping's head, scowling: "No amount of money can buy it!"

  "Eight hundred! How about eight hundred? Brother, this green fish weighs twenty kilograms per head, and eight hundred yuan can buy one hundred kilograms of green fish."

  "Not even for 10,000!" Old Zhang was too stubborn, and he wouldn't take the opportunity to make a profit of 700.

  An old man next to him said: "Kid, don't waste your thoughts, Old Zhang doesn't lack money, his son has a lot of it!"

  "Don't mention my son!" Old Zhang glared at the old man with a stern expression. The old man chuckled and said no more.

  Watching several old men walking far away, Xiao Ping's intestines were all green with regret.

  He didn't believe the old man's 'ghost story', so he went to another place to fish, hoping for good luck and catching some big ones, even 50-60 cm would be fine. But soon after, he heard a commotion from this side and ran over to find that the old man was putting a large green fish into his net.

  When he saw that big green fish, Xiao Pingtou almost cried. Originally, this big green fish should have been his, but because of a mistaken subjective judgment, he missed the opportunity to catch it.

  This is not the worst, the worst is that he offended the superior official who can catch big fish, after this incident, I'm afraid the superior official's impression of him will be extremely poor, and this long-term source of goods may be lost, which makes him more heartbroken than losing the big green fish.

  By the shore, Liu Yilan saw Xiao Pingtou's mournful face and her heart's depression was swept away. She hugged Shang Guan Neng's arm and chuckled: "Big brother, look at that Xiao Pingtou, he's about to cry."

  Shangguan Nengren had seen it early, but when people do wrong things, they must take responsibility for them. At this moment, Shangguan Nengren was harboring evil intentions and would not let Xiaopingtou come to answer questions without giving him a good beating.

  Patting Liu Yilan's head, he smiled and said, "I think that 20 jin should be enough earlier!"

  "Waaahhh..." Little sister picked up the big green fish, wiping away her tears: "I lost again, big brother is bullying me."

  Shangguan Yan:"......"

  "Hehe, gotcha!" Liu Yilan smiled with a face full of joy, her small head leaning on Shang Guan Nengren's shoulder. Although Shang Guan Nengren didn't have much meat on his body, his shoulders were very wide and were one of the few places that weren't bony, making it very comfortable for Liu Yilan to rest against.

  "Big brother, how did you practice your skills? Can you teach me?" The little cat's pure and pitiful eyes had a huge killing power, and Officer Nang was barely able to withstand it. He smiled bitterly and said: "It's not that I don't want to teach you, but even if I taught you, you wouldn't be able to learn."

  "Is it difficult?" Liu Yilan didn't think that Shangguan was deceiving her. In her opinion, this technique was too mysterious. If it were easy to learn, then it wouldn't be considered 'mysterious' at all.

  "It's not very difficult." Officer Nodded: "It's extremely extremely extremely extremely extremely...difficult!"

  Shangguan Nengren used the word "extremely" repeatedly, and every time he said it, Liu Yilan's eyes widened a little more. By the end of it, Little Loli's eyes were as wide as Ultraman's, and if there was a monster in front of her, she could have shot laser beams from her eyes to subdue it.

  Shangguan Nian looked at her with a fresh expression and waved his hand in front of her eyes: "Soul returned."

  "Ah!" Liu Yilan's eyes returned to normal, looking at Shangguan Nengren, weakly asking: "Big brother, why is it so difficult?"

  Shangguan Neng's brain turned, and nonsense spewed out: "My way of fishing is a kind of innate talent. I was born with a kind of heavenly intuition that makes me extremely sensitive to my surroundings. Even if there's just a slight change in the air, I can keenly sense it. Of course, this is just the foundation - on top of this, one must also constantly do good deeds."

  "Doing good deeds?" Officer Gao's words shocked Liu Yilan, she didn't expect Officer Gao to have such a talent, but she didn't understand what doing good deeds had to do with the perception of heaven and man.

  "I don't know why either." Shang Guan Neng said with a sigh, "As long as you do good deeds, your sensitivity will be enhanced to varying degrees. On the other hand, if you do bad things, your ability will decline."

  "It turns out to be like this." Liu Yilan understood and immediately exclaimed excitedly: "Big brother, could you be a natural Dao body? With the Dao law being natural, those with a natural Dao body are especially sensitive to changes in the natural environment."

  "This... I haven't heard of it, but the situation is about the same." Shangguan Nian said in his heart: Forgive me for my lies to Xiao Luoli! Boundless Heavenly Venerable.

  Liu Yilan looked at Shang Guan Nengren with excitement, her little face gradually turning red. She leaned in and kissed his face, then buried her own face in his chest, saying shyly: "Big brother, thank you for telling me this secret. I swear I won't let anyone else know."

  Shangguan was stunned, touching his face which was both wet and hot. The soft lips of the little loli seemed to have electricity, making his face feel numb and extremely comfortable. Looking at the little loli in his arms with a shy expression, she really looked exceptionally pure and lovely. No wonder there were so many weirdos who liked little lolis, it turned out that little lolis were really cute!

  Shangguan Neng took a few deep breaths: No way, no way, if this continues, I'll really become a lolicon.

  Just at this awkward and ambiguous atmosphere, Xiao Pingtou's voice came from behind: "Little brother, can we talk business?"

  Shangguan Nengren's heart suddenly burst with joy: Ah, you've come, you've come!

  Patting Liu Yilan's back, she said softly: "Get up quickly! You're a big girl now, and you shouldn't be shy."

  Liu Yilan let out a soft hum, reluctantly crawling out of Shangguan Nengren's arms, her face flushing red like a ripe apple. If not for Xiaopingtou being there, Shangguan Nengren would have almost bent down to take a bite.

  Liu Yilan touched her face, cooled down a bit, turned her head to see Xiao Pingtou, and her expression gradually darkened: "Didn't you leave? What are you coming back for!"

  Xiao Ping's face was filled with embarrassment and distress, now he didn't hate anyone, only hated himself for not grasping the opportunity, offending what was originally a sure thing, and ending up being neither here nor there.

  Xiao Ping's face turned red with embarrassment, and Shang Guan smiled faintly, stroking Liu Yilan's head: "Don't be angry, we're here to fish. I'm leading you now, so try harder."

  "Uh-huh." Liu Yilan nodded shyly, then hummed at Xiao Ping and picked up her fishing rod. Although she knew she couldn't catch up, enjoying the process of fishing was something she absolutely couldn't give up on.

  Thanks to 'Ji Yu Qing' and 'Long Shao Yi Sheng Xie' for each rewarding 100 starting coins.

  The bottleneck is over, but something happened today and the update was delayed. Tomorrow will definitely be back to 6000+.
