Chapter 119
Kobayashi was stunned by this scene, thinking to himself, "Do big fish eat stones?"
In the blink of an eye, Kobayashi slowly approached the big red fish with the net.
Then, a strange thing happened.
As soon as the big fish spat out the small stone, it didn't sink into the water; instead, it floated on the surface, neither too high nor too low.
At this moment, the big fish began to circle the rock at a moderate pace. After circling a few times, it would spit out a mouthful of water onto the rock, repeating this process over and over again.
Just as the big fish was repeating the ninth time, the originally ordinary little stone began to emit a halo in the water. At first, Xiaolin thought he was seeing things.
As the stone's glow in the water grew stronger and brighter, eventually turning a visible golden yellow, Kobayashi was still reeling from the shock.
Suddenly, a dark shadow darted out of the water in the distance. The shadow was incredibly fast, swallowing the small, glowing stone in the water in one gulp, before flipping over and disappearing into the deep water in the center of the river.
This happened far too fast.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the little stone was snatched away.
The large red fish also flapped its red tail, the size of a palm leaf fan, and immediately chased after the dark shadow.
Kobayashi, who witnessed this scene, didn't wake up until the big fish disappeared into the deep water.
He almost slipped into the river, and since his flashlight was nearby, he thought he had just seen things wrong. He quickly picked up the flashlight and carefully shone it, trying to find the big red fish he had just seen.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard he searched, he never found any trace of the big fish again.
Left with no other choice, Xiaolin could only find a random place to go online and didn't think much of the strange incident that night.
The next day, Xiao Lin got up early and took a flashlight to cast his net. Perhaps because of the bad location, he didn't catch any big fish or even a small fish in his several casts.
He packed up his net and took a shortcut back home, which would take him directly to the place where he used to set up his net.
As soon as they arrived at the place, they heard the cheers and joyful voices of the Lin brothers. It was already late, and there were a few people working in the fields.
Before Xiaolin even reached the destination, he saw a group of villagers gathered together, seemingly watching something amazing.
"Wow, this fish is so big! I've never seen one like it before!"
"Our ancestors all said that they had never seen a fish weighing more than three pounds in the Xiangshui River. That's really strange."
"I think those small fish were all eaten by this big fish, right?"
……
Hearing the villagers' exclamations, Xiao Lin immediately thought of the big fish he had seen the night before. He was filled with regret, thinking that if he had come earlier to cast his net, the big fish would have been his.
Although indignant, Kobayashi still leaned closer to the crowd and craned his neck to look.
The Lin brothers, who had caught the big fish, were seen scaling it with a knife and gutting it, clearly intending to clean it up here before taking it home.
"It's a pity that the big black fish died. If it were alive, it would be worth at least a thousand dollars at the market!"
Upon hearing this, Xiaolin was immediately startled. Blackfish?
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that this large fish, which was over a meter long, was not the same large red fish with red flowing lines that it had seen last night.
Xiao Lin didn't dare to say anything about the big red fish, but just watched enviously as the two brothers gutted the meter-long black fish.
Then, after a short while, Lin Hai started cursing, "Damn it, there are big fish eating rocks?"
Xiao Lin was about to leave, but when he heard about the big fish eating the stone, he immediately thought of the glowing stone he had seen last night.
He rushed closer to take a look, and when he saw the stone the size of a quail egg that Lin Hai had removed from the blackfish's internal organs, Xiao Lin almost choked.
Because this little stone was clearly the one he had seen the big red fish spit out of the river last night, the one that emitted a golden light!
