He forced me to sever ties with my family and sleep on a dilapidated boat, then turned around and be

Niu Bayi didn't mind, letting them talk whatever they wanted, and just turned to look at the small plastic bucket next to him.

Inside the plastic bucket were more than a dozen large prawns that Zhu Daneng had gotten for him.

Each shrimp weighs at least three ounces, and they are all soaked in slightly murky seawater in order to catch a big one.

Niu Ba poured out all the seawater inside, then quietly drew in seawater from his spatial dimension and poured it into the small bucket.

Before long, the previously lifeless shrimp became lively and energetic again.

Niu Bayi wasn't in a hurry. He waited until they had soaked in the magical seawater of the space, then grabbed one and hooked it.

At the same time, he muttered to himself.

"Golden turtle, oh golden turtle, I want to catch a golden turtle! I absolutely must catch a golden turtle! Please, please!"

He didn't know if this would work.

But the space and seawater are so magical, able to attract schools of fish and lead him to abalone and sandworms. Maybe it's like Guanyin Bodhisattva, able to hear his inner calling and really help him catch a golden turtle.

These muttered words were overheard by a bearded fisherman not far away, who laughed heartily.

"Kid, you're something else. May God grant you a lucky catch?"

Even a bald-headed fisherman heard this and immediately shook his head.

"Useless brat! I've done everything you did. I not only asked Buddha, the Jade Emperor, Guanyin, and Laozi to bless me in catching the golden turtle, but I also invited foreign deities."

"Jesus, Satan, and the Virgin Mary? It's useless! You didn't catch a single fish, so save your effort."

The fishermen laughed.

Niu Bayi ignored them and, having finished his rambling, carefully tossed the large prawn out.

The sinker, with a large fishhook and a shrimp attached, sank rapidly into the water.

The fishing line kept darting into the water.

It darted in for at least forty or fifty meters before stopping, clearly having reached the bottom.

Niu Bayi closed his eyes slightly, pinched the line between two fingers, and swayed it gently, feeling every movement in the depths of the sea.

The golden croaker is a bottom-dwelling fish that prefers to forage in the sandy bottom of the water and rarely surfaces.

Shrimp is its favorite food.

As Niu Bayi moved slightly, Xia Ge swayed back and forth in the seabed mud and sand.

If there really is a golden turtle nearby, it will pounce on you soon and you can enjoy a delicious bite.

Shrimp that have been soaked in the ocean waters of the space may be more attractive to golden fin turtles.

That was exactly what Niu Bayi had in mind.

So many people came and went, they must have used the bait that the golden croaker likes the most, but they still couldn't catch it.

This indicates that the waters are rich in food, providing ample food for the golden turtles.

I'm not interested in the meager sums you've offered!

It's not worth being caught, killed, and eaten for such a small amount.

Shrimp that have been soaked in seawater in the space might be different.

Niu Bayi quietly felt the sensation, and after only three or four minutes, suddenly, the fishing line in his hand tightened.

He instinctively pulled, and the line immediately became even tighter.

In the sea, it seemed like something was playing a tug-of-war with him; it was incredibly strong.

The fishing line suddenly sank again, almost slipping out of Niu Bayi's hand.

Fish have arrived!

And it must be a big fish coming!

Niu Ba was pleasantly surprised.

Damn it!

too fast!

I'm invincible!!

He was originally holding the nylon thread with one hand, but now he's grabbing it with his other hand as well.

He gripped the nylon thread tightly with both hands, swung it forward, and pulled it upward.

Suddenly, it felt as if the huge fishhook had plunged deep into the mouth of the big fish.

He immediately straightened up and assumed a horse stance.

Stand on the boat and pull upwards with all your might.

The fishing line was so taut that it even cut into Niu Bayi's palm, causing him pain.

My bones felt strained!

Fortunately, it was a thick nylon thread; otherwise, it would have really strangled Niu Bayi's hand.

He gritted his teeth, pulled hard on the fishing line, and kept circling it around his arms.

Leaning back, he raised one large foot and slammed it hard against the side of the boat.

Pull it up really high!

The fishing boats rocked slightly, and the seawater made a splashing sound.

This commotion immediately attracted the attention of all the anglers in the vicinity.

They all looked over, speechless.

The bearded man closest to Niu Bayi exclaimed, "Holy crap! How long was that kid offline? He caught the Golden Turtle in just a few minutes?"

Jealousy was evident on everyone's face!

I've forgotten all about fishing!

He stared intently at the thread in Niu Bayi's hand.

Niu Bayi stood firmly in place, remaining completely still no matter how much the big fish in the sea rolled and struggled.

Although the fishing boat was rocking violently, he felt as if he were rooted to the spot.

He kept pulling with both arms, winding the line around his arms.

The fishing line was pulled out meter by meter.

Seven or eight minutes later, the sea surface began to churn and bubble.

The man with the scabby head shouted, "The fish is about to come out of the water...it's about to come out of the water! Look! Look, isn't it a golden turtle!"

At this moment, Niu Bayi also fully realized that the big fish in the sea must weigh over a hundred pounds.

If this really is a golden turtle, then it's truly extraordinary.

I got over three thousand yuan!

Niu Bayi became more and more excited as he thought about it, and suddenly pulled hard.

The group of fishermen were filled with envy, nervousness, and excitement!

"A fish's on the hook! It's surfaced!"

"Quick, check if it's a golden turtle! Judging by the commotion, the fish must weigh over a hundred pounds. If it's a golden turtle, we'll be rich!"

"How come this kid is so lucky? He's only been out at sea for a few minutes and he's already caught a giant bream! I've been out fishing for three days and haven't caught anything but seawater!"

……

Everyone's eyes were practically glowing green.

Suddenly, the bearded man exclaimed, "Oh dear, what a pity, it's not a golden turtle!"

Immediately, the group breathed a sigh of relief.

His face even showed a slight hint of schadenfreude.

"So what we caught wasn't a giant snapping turtle after all!"

"Kid, even if you catch a big fish in just a few minutes, what good is it if it's not a golden turtle!"

"Damn! Even though it's not a golden croaker, this fish is still quite valuable; it's a baby minnow!"

……

Suddenly, a large, dark brown fish head emerged from the water.

It looks a bit dull, but it has a lot of brute force.

Even after being caught by Niu Bayi, it continued to struggle and thrash about.

Its enormous tail slapped the sea surface, creating waves more than a meter high!

The fish head thumped against the outside of the boat, making the entire fishing boat shake violently.

On either side of its massive body are two very prominent silver stripes, as dazzling as lightning.

As it swayed, it resembled two long swords, ready to stab Niu Bayi once or twice.

This is one of the characteristics of the juvenile fish.

"Mengzai fish" is what the local fishermen call it.

Its proper name is Sergeant Fish.

Its flesh is also quite delicious, and it's great for making sashimi.

The market price is probably three or four yuan per kilogram.

This sergeant fish must weigh at least 100 pounds.

In other words, Niu Bayi made three or four hundred yuan from this one fishing trip!

He used all his strength, gripped the nylon thread tightly with both hands, and pulled it upwards with great force.

We've stocked up, everyone!
