Feng Heming

Chapter 307 Two in One
The big boat hurried back, and Lu Ming and others were also frightened. The boatmen used too much force, and their arms soon became sore, so they immediately replaced Lu Ming and others to paddle.

On the way back, they met another big boat that was looking for them. Seeing Jiang Yuanxi's boat was going so fast, she was puzzled, but when she heard the people on that boat yelling loudly and hurried away, she also went back in a daze.

Jiang Yuanxi stood on the deck and watched the fish monster. At first, she was still tense, thinking that if the fish monster came to attack their big ship, she would have to kill the fish with a big knife, but after the fish monster jumped into the sea, He showed his head, yelled, and swam away slowly, ignoring them.

After anchoring the boat and landing on the shore, except for Jiang Yuanxi and Shao Sihu, the others were relieved. They all had no strength, and they collapsed on the ground, dripping with sweat.

It's autumn, and it's still hot like a scorching heat. I'm surprised to see it.

After taking a breath, they couldn't hold it back anymore. With lingering fear on their faces, these people told others about the fish monster they saw just now, and described it vividly, only bluffing others.

Huo Jingshan also heard it, and suddenly became excited, and grabbed someone to tell him about the appearance of the fish monster's house in detail, but the others were terrified at the time, fearing that they would be buried in the mouth of the fish, how could they remember the length of the fish monster? What happened? Jiang Yuanxi and Shao Sihu, who could see clearly, did not stop, they had already returned to the government office. Before leaving, Jiang Yuanxi gave an order, and remembered to pack up the net of fish caught in the boat.

After returning to the Yamen Office to take a bath, Jiang Yuanxi was still pondering over the fish monster he saw, when a sneer sounded out.

"What Kun? Only that fish is qualified to be called Kun? Kun is a divine beast!"

Jiang Yuanxi raised his eyebrows, "Old man, you mean that fish just now wasn't a kun fish?"

This voice is the old man in black, he also saw the scene of the fish monster appearing in the sea.

"Kunyu? You know how to name it, but as a teacher, I still have to say that not everyone can afford the word Kun. At most, that fish is a bit bigger. Compared with Kun, it is not enough for Kun. It has big wings."

Jiang Yuanxi could clearly feel Master's contempt when he mentioned that fish monster, and a divine beast?

Jiang Yuanxi became interested, and the old man in black explained it to her in detail. After a long time, she was still unsatisfied, and she had a longing in her heart, "I really want to see the Kun you mentioned, Master, and I want to see it." What does Qiongqi look like, and what does Bai Ze look like."

The old man in black didn't speak at this time, he hadn't escaped from this big formation for a day, and he couldn't take Jiang Yuanxi out of this small world for a day.

But after so many years of hard work, and thanks to the help of the little apprentice, there is hope.

Jiang Yuanxi saw that the master stopped talking, thought that the master was practicing again, so he didn't want to bother him anymore, so he asked Ah Fang to invite Shao Sihu over.

"Xiao Hu, are you afraid?" It was Fang Cai's fish monster who asked.

Shao Xihu shook his head, "I observed it just now, that fish monster doesn't seem to be vicious, but it looks a bit afraid of us. We can see its true face from that distance. When it returned home, it also turned around and left without pursuing.”

Jiang Yuanxi also noticed that she still attaches great importance to the fact that there are fish monsters in the sea, not to mention that she is already preparing to train as a sailor, if she wants to train as a sailor, she must be on a boat, right?

Even if she doesn't train as a sailor, the people in Danyang County like to swim in the sea. What if some people swim in the sea and are eaten by fish monsters?

No matter how bad it is, she still has a salt field. What if the fish monster stirs up trouble in the sea and destroys her salt field?
For various reasons, Jiang Yuanxi decided to explore the sea again, wanting to see if there was only one fish monster in the sea, or a group of fish monsters.Are these fish monsters mild-tempered or fierce beasts that will attack people? If they are mild-tempered, can they be caught?

As far as Jiang Yuanxi saw the size of that fish monster, she dared to say that the meat on that fish monster could feed the entire population of Danyang County for half a year.

Shao Sihu understood her meaning as soon as he heard it, and said firmly: "Wu Niang, I want to go with you."

He was worried about leaving Wu Niang alone.

Jiang Yuanxi smiled, "Okay, you go too."

The news of fish monsters appearing in the sea spread throughout the county within a day. When everyone gathered for dinner in the evening, Jiang Bojin asked about it with great interest.

Except for Shao Sihu's endless talk to Jiang Yuanxi, the rest of the time it was very doubtful whether he was dumb, so Jiang Yuanxi had to tell the story.

After talking about what he saw, Jiang Yuanxi said: "I plan to explore the sea with Xiaohu again tomorrow."

This time he was flatly rejected by everyone except Shao Sihu.

"Wu Niang, that fish monster doesn't even know what it is, you can't go if the son of a daughter can't sit down." Jiang Bojin was the first to object.

Jiang Boyong nodded in agreement this time, and persuaded earnestly: "Yes, Wu Niang, you also said that the fish was as big as a big boat. What's the use of you going there? It's the sea, it's unlucky to say the least. , what if the boat capsizes? Can you still swim faster than the fish monster?”

Even Duan Gong frowned, hoping that Jiang Yuanxi would dispel such thoughts.

However, how could Jiang Yuanxi's decision be changed so easily?
She has the confidence not to put herself in danger, and she plans to take Shao Sihu alone, so that even if the boat capsizes, she is sure to save her and Xiaohu's lives.

At this time, the others finally saw Jiang Yuanxi's one-sidedness, and it was useless to persuade anyone, even Jiang San's grandfather and others could not stop Jiang Yuanxi's decision.

Seeing this, the three of Hu Qu and Feng said they would go with them, anyway, they had the strength to fight, but Jiang Yuanxi refused.

On the second day, Jiang Yuanxi and Shao Sihu took bows and arrows, spears, large nets, etc., and boarded the big boat.

Lu Ming and the others were about to board the boat, but were blocked.

"My lord, even if we are not skilled in martial arts, we can still paddle you. It's just the two of you. How do you row?"

Jiang Yuanxi still refused, leaving a group of people staring blankly, watching Jiang Yuanxi and Shao Sihu board the boat, leaving a group of worried people behind.

Jiang Boyong and the others simply stood by the seaside and watched the big ship slowly sailing out of the seaside. They would not leave until Jiang Yuanxi and Shao Sihu came back safely.

Both Jiang Yuanxi and Shao Sihu are extremely intelligent people, they learned how to turn the sails and turn them around early on.

It was also a beautiful day, and the wind just happened to be favorable. After the two men adjusted the sails on the boat, they ignored the oars and let the sea breeze slowly slide the big boat into the sea.

After staying away from everyone's sight, Jiang Yuanxi reckoned that no one with the best eyesight would be able to see what was going on on the deck, so she sat on the oars and swiped hard——

The ship rushed out like flying.

Jiang Yuanxi's expression froze, and he looked at Shao Sihu, who frowned, "Wu Niang, let me paddle, this job is too tiring, I'll do it."

Jiang Yuanxi: "."

Jiang Yuanxi rowed several times before stopping. At this time, the big boat had arrived at the place where he met the fish monster yesterday.

There was no one rowing, and the boat slowed down again. The two stood on the deck and looked at it. After a while, Jiang Yuanxi frowned, "There are no fish monsters around here."

She first looked up at the sky, the sky was clear, and the beauty of the sea and the sky made her feel at ease, and it didn't look like there would be a storm.

Then he looked at Shao Sihu, "Xiaohu, why don't we go further?"

She planned to go back if she went ten miles further, and if she couldn't see the fish monster.

Jiang Yuanxi asked the wrong person, and he only got one answer when he asked Shao Sihu, "Okay."

Then the boat moved on.

With the distance in mind, Jiang Yuanxi suddenly raised his head and stared into the distance,
"Little Tiger, did you hear something?"

Shao Sihu listened intently, following the sailing of the big ship, he said after a while, "Why does it sound like someone is singing a song?"

Then he shook his head again, "No, just let out a long cry, pause for a few breaths and call out again, could it be that?"

Jiang Yuanxi nodded solemnly, "It seems that we have encountered a fish monster."

The two were engrossed. Shao Sihu had already bent his bow and set an arrow in his hand, and Jiang Yuanxi was holding a spear in his hand. As the big ship moved forward, his voice became clearer and clearer.

Jiang Yuanxi and the two also saw fish monsters, not one, but a group.

As if playing, one fish monster jumped out of the water and then jumped down, and the other fish monster also jumped out, and there were waves on the water.

Suddenly a big boat appeared, and the fish monsters seemed to be a little panicked, and they were not playing. Jiang Yuanxi could clearly see that several small fish monsters were led away into the deep sea by several big fish monsters, leaving only the others Several big fish monsters were watching them there.

It seems to be wary of them?

Even though most of the fish monsters left, there were still five or six left, and each one was bigger than the ones seen yesterday. Shao Sihu looked at Jiang Yuanxi.

If there was only one fish monster, maybe Jiang Yuanxi would do it. There are several fish monsters. If one of them is injured, the others will go crazy, and the big ship will definitely be crashed.

From her observation just now, it seems that this group of fish monsters also has human nature. When encountering unknown dangers, the mothers evacuate first with the children, leaving the fathers to guard the rear.

Jiang Yuanxi looked at the fish monsters carefully, and she noticed something. The big ship was moving slowly. Although the fish monsters half-surrounded the big ship, they retreated as soon as the big ship entered. The distance between the two sides hardly changed.

Does this mean that these fish monsters will not actively attack humans?
"Little Tiger, come, help me cast the net down." Jiang Yuanxi observed for a while, then his heart moved, and he called Shao Sihu to cast the net down.

Then Jiang Yuanxi stopped looking at the fishing nets, but focused on the fish monsters.

After a while, Shao Sihu tensed his body, drew his bow and arrows fully, and looked vigilantly at the fish monsters who suddenly dispersed.

The fish monsters made sounds from their mouths, and they swam separately, crossing each other, and the water was stirred up by them.

The boat sank slightly, but then stabilized quickly.

The fish monsters stopped again, gathered together again, looked at them, yelled, one jumped up, dived into the deep sea and disappeared, and the others followed suit.

After waiting for a while, Shao Sihu slowly relaxed his body and put down the bow and arrow.

Jiang Yuanxi came to the deck, looked down, and saw alive and kicking fish in the fishing nets on the sea, her expression was a little complicated, "I see, it seems that I want to tell other people, if you encounter these black and white Big-headed fish, you can't hurt them, if you encounter them in danger, give them a hand if you can."

Jiang Yuanxi put down the spear, pulled the fishing net up, and Shao Sihu helped her.

Yesterday, it took more than ten or twenty talents to pull up the fishing net. Today, the two of them pulled it up. Fortunately, no one saw it, otherwise Jiang Yuanxi would have a headache as to how to explain his strength.

Looking at the fish piled up on the deck, Jiang Yuanxi pondered and asked: "Xiaohu, you said those black and white big-headed fish are helping to drive the fish into the fishing net. Are they trying to help us, or do you want us to leave early when the fishing net is full?"

That's right, after those fish monsters swam together just now, their big boat sank slightly, because the fishing nets were full of fish, more than yesterday's.

Shao Sihu thought for a while, then shook his head.

Jiang Yuanxi couldn't think of a reason, so he simply didn't bother to think about it. The two adjusted the sail together, turned around, and started to return.

"Little Tiger, I figured we were already more than 50 miles away from the sea. In order to avoid encountering this group of fish monsters, we will practice at a place [-] miles offshore in the future."

"it is good."

Jiang Yuanxi thought about it again, "Mr. Huo may not be able to go on a long-distance voyage in the short term. This group of fish monsters is the first problem."

Shao Sihu didn't bother to care about whether Huo Jingshan went out to sea, so he looked indifferent.

The biggest gain of this trip is probably to confirm that the fish monsters are a group, and their temperament is really gentle. When Jiang Boyong and his group saw the figure of the big boat, their legs almost went limp.

After getting off the boat, Jiang Yuanxi met all the faces of complaining women, especially Jiang Bojin, who looked at Jiang Yuanxi sadly like a complaining woman living alone in a boudoir, her scalp was numb, and she almost couldn't hold back her itching.

"There are fish on the boat, find someone to clean it up."

Jiang Yuanxi didn't need to say, they saw it too, because some fish jumped high.

"Wu Niang, are there a lot of fish in the sea? You caught so many fish after going out to sea." Jiang Bojin sighed.

It was Jiang Boyong who remembered the purpose of going out to sea, "Wu Niang, did you see the fish monster?"

Others also pricked up their ears, concentrating on it.

"I see, a group of fish monsters, but according to my observation, they have a gentle temperament, as long as they don't take the initiative to provoke them, they should be fine. But just in case, we'd better not go out to sea twenty miles away, and see the fish. Let the monster come back." Jiang Yuanxi didn't say anything dead, what if the fish monster went crazy?

Jiang Boyong was more concerned about another matter, "Wu Niang, how about we arrange people to fish every day?"

Anyway, a large ship can be built in half a month. The more ships, the more fish you can catch.

Jiang Yuanxi had a feeling in her heart that it was exactly as she thought, Fifth Brother really cared about food storage.

It seemed that as the end of the year approached, he became more and more anxious. She had heard that Fifth Brother had approached Zhu Xuezhen to discuss the matter of reclaiming more wasteland during the winter slack.

"Okay, anyway, there are a lot of fish in the sea, so Brother Fifth can figure it out."

The sea is very big, and it will happen in a while, and I am not afraid that the fish will be gone. I just don’t know how much food the fifth brother wants to store?
Jiang Yuanxi always felt that after a while, she would know why Fifth Brother needed so much food.
