Chapter 183 Can’t catch this fish?

The gangplank was lowered, and people lined up one after another to get off the boat.

Beach, woods, caves... This is an unpretentious supply island.

You can keep the harvest on the island for yourself, or hand it over to the captain in exchange for points, but their activity time is only 12 hours.

The ship will not wait one more second, and those who time out can only stay on the island and wait quietly for the spiritual realm to end and be teleported out.

Don't ask why he didn't cross the river by flying. Xu Jiang tried it and found that after being two meters above the ground, a powerful wave of wires would be generated inexplicably.

The higher it rises, the stronger the wire becomes, making it difficult to maintain balance.

In addition, there are many ghosts in the River Styx. No matter what your strength is, you will definitely die if you fall into the water. Only ghost ships can pass above the River Styx.

In order to speed up the search, Black Shark very experienced issued a reward.

"I want these three ores at three times the market price." In order to disturb people, Black Shark deliberately searched for two more ores. In an instant, a large number of professional miners poured into the mine to search.

"But aren't you from the fishing association?" Xu Jiang looked at the signs on their chests and felt confused.

"Sorry, I forgot to change it. We are also members of the Jade Association."

The ore here cannot be obtained outside. If you collect a batch and bring it back, you can sell it at a good price.

As a result, everyone put on new signs one after another, and the fishing guys all revealed their second side jobs. The people in the association were indeed very evil, and their composition was more complicated than Xu Jiang imagined.

Fortunately, with their help, Xu Jiang and others made much faster progress. Five hours later, all three types of ore were collected and ready to return to the ship.

But at this time, a middle-aged man quietly stopped Xu Jiang.

"Mr. Xu, excuse me." The middle-aged man was the fishmonger who originally sold ghost-faced fish, rubbing his hands with a sneaky look on his face.

It feels like those dealers in the corners of the city who sell you erotic videos for 5 yuan a chapter or 10 yuan for no code.

Of course, Xu Jiang has definitely never bought one, but it feels very similar.

"You have something to do with me?" Xu Jiang didn't mind, he stopped and asked strangely

The fishmonger chuckled and said, "Yes, there is news about the [Golden Carp of the Styx]. Are you interested?"

[Golden Carp in the Styx] is the ultimate goal of fishing. Not to mention Xu Jiang, even the black shark on the side was moved.

"Oh? Do you have any news? How to sell it?" Black Shark took the initiative to talk and ask for the price.

“Only 30,000 credit points, the price is affordable.”

This is true, compared to the value of the golden carp, 30,000 credits are nothing.

Black Shark waved his hand: "Okay, I bought it to help Mr. Xu."

Although he must be scheming against Xu Jiang in his heart, hoping that Xu Jiang will die after getting the treasure, in terms of superficial skills, Black Shark still has to do enough.

The fishmonger took the money and looked around for a while. Seeing that no one was eavesdropping, he quietly approached them and said, "Actually, the bait given by the captain cannot catch the [Styx Golden Carp] at all."

After hearing this, everyone was stunned. The bait was useless. It cost a lot of money to exchange. Is there something fishy in this? Several people quickly continued to listen silently.

Then... there is no more.

"...Is it over?" Black Shark asked with his eyes widened.

"Yes! Isn't this news?"

"Are you fucking kidding me? You charged me 30,000 yuan and just told me such nonsense, you..."

"Okay, okay! This sentence is worth 30,000."

Xu Jiang stopped Black Shark, waved his hand, and asked the apologetic fishmonger to leave.

Is it worth spending 30,000 credits to buy a waste of words that won’t catch any fish?

"Of course it's worth it. At least he told me that the captain was lying and I won't be fooled again next time." Xu Jiang shrugged helplessly.

Judging by the ghost captain's cunning smile, there is no doubt that Xu Jiang was deceived.

In his previous life, he was never approached by scammers because he had no money. He never expected that he would be deceived even if he caught a fish in this life.

Those two shitty pieces of bait can't catch anything [Styx Golden Carp] at all.

As the boat moved forward, the bait soaked in the river would melt and disperse over time. At least this news helped Xu Jiang avoid a second bait scam.

"According to the records, some people did use special bait to catch the [Styx Golden Carp]! What's the problem?" Gong Zi complained at the side.

The ghost captain cannot be messed with. Even if they know they have been cheated, they can only bear it in their hearts.

After all, this spiritual realm has been open for such a long time, so no one has tried to seize the ship.

Unfortunately, in the end, they were all stabbed one by one by the captain and thrown into the river to feed the fish. The combat power was beyond what they could handle.

…

After returning to the boat, I saw the crying face of the little bear.

"Kunca~~" The little bear lowered his head in frustration.

Water Gun also apologized: "General, we have failed to live up to your high expectations. Our air force is dead."

"What? Air Force? Where is the Air Force!"

"There's no air force anywhere, just stay calm." Xu Jiang rolled his eyes and pushed back Guanyin who was joining in the fun.

He asked the water gun: 'Is there no such fish in the river? So I can't catch it?'

"No, I sensed the fish's presence, but its attitude was very arrogant."

Arrogant attitude?

This was the first time Xu Jiang heard such a comment: 'Are you sure that's a fish, and it has an arrogant attitude?'

"Yes, General, I asked it to come into the bowl, but it doesn't come. Do you think it's arrogant?"

???

Who is this arrogant?

If you want to eat other people, it's no wonder that others are willing to do it.

But in this way, the plan to fish for the [Styx Golden Carp] is considered bankrupt. Once the fish becomes intelligent, it will not listen to the whispers of the water gun. It seems that there is no chance at all.

…

After returning to the room to rest and having a satisfying sleep, Xu Jiang was woken up by a knock on the door.

"Mr. Xu, the second island is coming soon. It's time for us to eat something and get ready."

Black Shark, this one is indeed a professional bitch.

He had arranged everything on the ship in an orderly manner for Xu Jiang. If the other party hadn't plotted against him, Xu Jiang would have wanted to accept him as his younger brother.

After leaving the door, I looked out and could see through the fog a huge black shadow in the distance.

On the deck, the ghost captain still had a wicked smile on his face, stepped on the wooden box and said loudly:

"Everyone, please pay attention. We will go to the River Demon Island later. It is very dangerous there. We will stop here for a day. If you are not afraid of death, you can go ashore and have a look."

It's a rare reminder, or maybe this person wants to leave more labor force for him to drive. In short, this river demon island is definitely not very safe.

The three Black Sharks, holding several bags of powder-like packages in their hands, flattered Xu Jiang and said, "Mr. Xu, based on our previous experience, at least thirty monsters will appear every time you summon them. You see...

…”

"It doesn't matter, I will take action."
