Li Tian Zodiac

Chapter 9

The people around were all eager to try, they rushed to the sidelines to watch, and following the movements of the salvager, they exclaimed, praised or sighed from time to time.

If the opponent almost succeeds, when they clap their hands in astonishment, they can't help but feel a little lucky-maybe I can get it when it's my turn.

The water in the lake became muddy, and the sky became darker. When there was still a little light, the lanterns on the roadside were lit one by one, but in a blink of an eye, the lakeside was as bright as day .

These are... Shen Changling frowned deeply, and he looked at the maids in light-colored long skirts, holding glazed palace lanterns who were quietly and orderly lighting up the lights on the shore one after another.

These women walked neatly on the stone bridge, all of them lowered their eyebrows and narrowed their eyes, gracefully and gracefully crossing the lake, like elves in flowers coming towards them, light and graceful, very orderly.

Even when the light is only slightly bright, you can vaguely see that their appearance is beautiful, and their every move should have been strictly trained. It is definitely not the temperament that the maids in this garden should have.

He looked at the young man who was watching the posture of all beings, that man still had a lazy posture, with one hand resting on his bent knees, and the other holding the flagon, he had a handsome appearance, with a cynical smile hanging from the corner of his mouth , watching everything in front of him quietly, making people a little confused about the deep meaning in those eyes.

Suddenly, he turned his head around, as if he knew that someone was looking at him unscrupulously, and his gaze was precisely aimed at Shen Changling.

Shen Changling, who was subconsciously thinking deeply and causing his eyes to focus on one point, was suddenly startled: I didn't expect him to be so keen on sight.

He seemed to turn his head unintentionally and naturally, as if he just looked over by accident, and now he followed the crowd to watch the fishing again and again.

I didn't notice that person's slightly narrowed peach eyes and the deepening smile at the corner of his mouth...

The water in the pool was tumbling, and it seemed that a group of creatures happily squeezed and wandered back and forth in the muddy pool water. They could not be seen clearly under the cover of night and mud—perhaps they were the original creatures in the lake. There are koi.

What's strange is that those fish are not afraid of people, they just swim back and forth amidst the exclamation of the crowd, crossing the lake from time to time, but when the person holding the fishing net sees the right time to fish from bottom to top, they turn around quickly, He ran away flexibly, and got together again when the people on the shore sighed.

Really, it makes people have an indescribable feeling... It looks like people are fishing for fish, but... Suddenly a thought rose from the bottom of my heart, and Shen Changling couldn't help being surprised: This farce, it seems It is ruled by humans, but in fact it is this group of fish teasing humans!

This feeling was too sudden, but Shen Changling couldn't help raising his eyes to look in the direction of that strange man again, and his intuition told him that all this might have something to do with that guy... right?

Uncertainly raising her head and looking over cautiously, Shen Changling tried her best not to be too conspicuous—especially when everyone was staring at the lake.

However, unexpectedly, or not unexpectedly, his eyes just met a pair of smiling eyes, it seems that since he looked over, he has never turned his eyes away, and has been observing, calmly. .

The man changed into a more comfortable posture, and leaned on the railing through the coolness of the evening to look over. The last light of the setting sun that fell below the horizon shone behind him, and Shen Changling was in a trance. It seems to see the halo unfolding behind him...

Like a fallen angel who came by night... No, no, no, no, no, get rid of all the miscellaneous thoughts in your mind, Shen Changling read silently, thinking of western magic in the obvious oriental fantasy, these two are clearly incompatible!

When I looked over again, everything seemed to be an illusion. The man didn't look here, but raised his head and drank the wine, and swallowed all the liquid with a slight movement of his throat.

He didn't care much about throwing the empty jug casually, and an arc was drawn, and the jug was thrown into the lake with a plop. The fish ran around in fright, and there was an empty piece in that place...

So, everything just now was an illusion, this is clearly a spendthrift young master, probably came here to experience life when he was idle or bored - Shen Changling's head was full of black lines.

"I see, I see, over there, hurry up..." Someone cheered from the side, Shen Changling turned his gaze away - under the bright light of several lanterns, he vaguely saw a golden streamer in the lake in the dark The water of the lake flashed past and disappeared into the depths.

"Do you want to try it? It seems that you are the only one who hasn't tried it..." At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from the side. Someone stuffed the fishing net into his hand and urged him.

Shen Changling looked around, only to realize that at some point, he had been squeezed to the lake, which was at the front of the crowd.

Uh, maybe you can try it yourself, holding the stuffed net in your hand, Shen Changling held it tentatively, and then put the net into the water under the scorching sight of everyone.

A little heavy was his first reaction.

The resistance in the water was greater than expected. The water flow was so smooth, but it brought unimaginable strength.

It's still a little dark, this is Shen Changling's second reaction.

The sun had completely sunk below the horizon, and the sky was already very dark. Although the land on the shore was illuminated as brightly as day by the lights, the pitch-black water of the lake was still not as clean and clear as it was during the day.

He stirred his hands in the water, and there were some people beside him pointing him in which direction to swing.

I can't see clearly, in such a dark sky, no matter how hard Shen Changling tries, he can only see the turbulent mud in the water and the aquatic plants floating by from time to time. As for the golden carp?Not to mention, he hasn't even seen a few common carp...

Wait a minute, wasn't that just...

A golden arc suddenly flashed in his eyes, Shen Changling narrowed his eyes, almost subconsciously, he swung forcefully in the direction where the arc escaped, and even slipped on the wet vegetation on the bank because of the excessive force one time.

"Hey, I caught it, I caught it..." Then someone exclaimed in the ear, and everyone made a sound of surprise-it was the sudden roar of surprise.

However, Shen Changling felt something was wrong, because at this moment, he couldn't pull up the fishing net in his hand!

What kind of strength is this——his hands had to hold on to the net with all his strength, and his feet had even sunk deeply into the mud.

And the strange force underwater—yes, it’s not so much the strength produced by the fish struggling back and forth while swimming, it’s better to say that it’s like a hand pulling in the water, which is completely opposite to the strength on the shore.

Damn it, Shen Changling even forgot that he didn't particularly want to catch that fish after being excited by this strange force, and then he worked very hard to compete with the force in the water.

Because he would rather run aside and watch than entertain others.

This is a very good quality of his. Compared with the children who liked all kinds of provocations and troubles in the second year of middle school, he was undoubtedly a good boy in everyone's eyes when he was a child.

This is also a very bad quality of his. After all, only a competitive heart can make a person have greater motivation to move forward, but he is too indifferent, and has an insurmountable distance for everything.

It is not an ordinary young man moaning about "sorry about writing new words" after reading a few books, but a real gap that cannot be bridged no matter how hard he tries, it is a distance that separates him from the world ...

What a tragedy that is!

However, at this moment, he has an impulse, he wants to win against that unknown power in the water, he wants to accomplish this, not for the cheers of ordinary people, not for the rewards of strangers, not for everything, just because... He wanted to, to get this done.

"Huh..." Suddenly, as if sensing something, the man who was sitting crookedly straightened his face and sat up straight.

He turned his head to look at the shore, and the look in his eyes became deep and solemn. Looking at it like that, he seemed to be able to pass through the crowds and all obstacles, and shoot straight at the person on the shore.

The man who is about to succeed...

That power... Could it be...

"Oh, it really succeeded. Look, look, it's that golden carp!!!" The people next to him said words of admiration in unison, some envious, some lamented, some jealous, and some Guess what the 100 taels of silver will be like later, or whether this person will use it to exchange for another reward-after all, that young man seems too expensive, even if he wants something better, even if it is only better than 100 taels A tael of silver is a little more expensive, but it is enough to be developed...

The vivid display of all living beings...

Everyone is paying attention to the carp, everyone is sighing, but everyone ignores the state of the person involved, no, maybe except the instigator.

But at this moment, panting, Shen Changling poured the carp into the wooden barrel beside him, seeing how it was swimming in the water with vigor and vigor, he couldn't help feeling a little dazed.

What happened to me just now?He tried hard to recall, but he couldn't figure out how he moved, he just felt like his head was about to explode.

At that moment just now, it seemed that something rushed out of his body, like a volcano that had been silent for many years suddenly erupted. Insignificant.

As if some barrier had been broken, the power that should have been so strong that it could not be measured just melted away like that, and disappeared without a trace in an instant...

is it really me?That power is obviously weird, but how did I break it?

Obviously, I have only just figured out how to use spiritual power, why...

All the surrounding sounds disappeared, Shen Changling stood there in a daze, a gust of cold wind blew across the lake, his whole body was as cold as in winter...

Hiss, why is it so cold?It hurts, my head hurts...

"Don't be nervous, relax, calm down and everything will be fine..." Gentle persuasion came from my ear, and a gust of warm wind came oncoming, like a warm current, which made people who had just been in the severe cold and frost Shen Changling gradually relaxed.

who is it?Who is speaking to me?

There seemed to be a gurgling heat from the shoulders, pouring into the heart, and then flowing through the whole body, which made the body that had been exhausted from excessive use of spiritual power just now feel much better.

His ears seemed to be able to hear again, and all the darkness in front of his eyes receded, and a warm yellow light came into view—he could finally speak.

The author has something to say: Shen Changling (dumbfounded): This person appeared in a good way (automatically mutes his voice)~

Duan Shuangming (chic and uninhibited): look at the boy opposite~
