After returning from my cultivation journey, I built a farm through fortune telling.

Chapter 173

The power of spiritual energy is immense. Not only the fish in the vicinity, but even the fish on the other side of the reservoir are swimming over with their fins broken. However, before they even arrive, the little bit of spiritual energy has already been devoured by the fish that are close by.

They struggled to squeeze into the inner circle, only to find that the thing that exuded such deadly attraction had vanished.

The fish have gone mad.

Enraged, they leaped out of the water, their agile bodies soaring nearly two meters high before crashing back down with such force that it seemed as if they were about to kill themselves.

Upon witnessing this scene, the reservoir owner went from being overjoyed and weeping, to being puzzled, to being shocked, and finally to having an expression as if he had seen a ghost.

He was truly speechless at the sight he witnessed, and the fisherman surnamed Li was even less able to describe it. He even dropped his newly purchased fishing rod, which cost over three thousand yuan. He hid behind a tree and shouted to Bailu and the others, "Girl, run! Run! I told you this reservoir was weird! We hadn't seen any fish for almost a month, but today so many crazy fish suddenly appeared! There must be something wrong!"

"Really, believe me, I've been fishing for so many years and I've never encountered this situation before! I used to hear anglers say that when fishing in deep mountain reservoirs like this, you have to prepare some gear, both for the living and the dead. I didn't believe it, but now I've seen it for myself!"

The fisherman surnamed Li wanted to leave, but found his legs were a little numb, so he had to lean against a tree to rest for a while.

"It's fine."

As Bai Lu spoke, he made a hand seal, and the restless fish gradually calmed down. They swam around in place for a moment, then slowly sank to the bottom of the water, leaving only shimmering ripples on the surface. It was as if the fish had never existed.

The fisherman surnamed Li: "..."

Even stranger!

Damn it! Run!

However, his leg was numb and he couldn't crawl.

Just as his heart was pounding, he heard a clear, ethereal voice coming from all directions: "Who, who dares to steal my fish!" The fisherman surnamed Li nudged the reservoir owner, who had somehow appeared under a tree, and asked, "Wasn't that you who spoke just now?"

The reservoir owner shook his head, the reservoir owner shook his head desperately.

He also felt a bit eerie, which is why he hid with the fisherman surnamed Li. During that time, his little mouth—didn't say a word!

He didn't even open his mouth!

How can it talk!
He had wondered more than once what secrets this reservoir held, and why he couldn't catch any fish despite having so many. Was there some kind of supernatural occurrence? Was there some unknown creature in the reservoir that had scared all the fish away, or eaten them all?

These thoughts kept appearing in his mind, only to be overturned by him again and again with socialist theory. That's why he would immediately think of that when something unusual happened at the reservoir, and that's why he would be afraid and have a feeling of "I knew it!"

The fisherman surnamed Li said, "If it's not you, then who is it? These fish in the reservoir aren't yours, are they?"

"I don't know..." The reservoir owner genuinely didn't know.

The two grown men exchanged a glance and then quietly moved a little closer together.

The sound seemed to be coming from all directions, but there was only one source. The egret's ears twitched slightly, and its gaze turned to the woods behind it. Its eyes then fixed on the tree where the fisherman surnamed Li and the reservoir owner were hiding.

The egret smiled and said, "I see you. Come down."

"What did you see?"

Bai Chen and Bai Wei also turned their heads.
