C253 Large carp (1/2)
”Oh my god, a monster!” The fisherman on the bank of the river screamed, cast his net, and ran.
”Do you really need to ask? I'm really a person!” Jiang Xiaobai laughed bitterly as he removed the fishnet from his body and climbed up the embankment.
With just a glance, Jiang Xiaobai was certain that he had succeeded in transcending over to the ancient Bao Zhou.
Because just southeast of the embankment, about five or six kilometers away, a familiar building was glowing in the sunlight.
The glazed roof and square body of the glazed roof, yellow and green meeting, wasn't that the Great Tzu Chi Pavilion!
The Great Tzu Pavilion's construction was built by the Northern Song Dynasty Region in the past to watch over the sixteen Swallow Cloud Regions, and had the same function as the Dingzhou Pagoda which was over a hundred kilometers away from the south.
To climb high into the distance, one could not only miss their homeland, but also observe their enemy's circumstances, and also support a group of monks to collect some incense, killing two birds with one stone.
It was only three or four hundred meters away from the Palace. Therefore, Jiang Xiaobai determined that his current position should be in the northeast direction of the Baozhou City.
As expected, even though this era's vegetation was flourishing, even though there were large trees that were around a hundred meters tall everywhere, Jiang Xiaobai could still see from the shadows about three kilometers away. That green-gray city wall that was far more imposing and imposing than the Yi Zhou City.
Ugh, the first Nine Gates has been activated, and it's the first to be located.
This was the Northeast. If he were to open three more doors in the northwest, southwest, and southeast, his entire Baozhou City would be wrapped inside, and he would be able to freely move about within the Baozhou City.
Jiang Xiaobai raised his head and looked towards the south. He was already two hundred meters away from the bridge.
”Hey, that man Wu, why are you being so ungrateful?” The fisherman quickly realized that he had overreacted and chased after them. He shouted, ”This family saved your life. You want to run away without thanking me?”
He was a poor fisherman, his clothes could not even cover his body, and his entire body was dark.
Although the net from before could not be considered as saving lives, at least Jiang Xiaobai had let the fisherman catch quite a few fish, so he immediately cupped his fists and bowed, and said: ”Thank you brother for saving my life!”
”That's more like it!” Satisfied, the fisherman turned to leave.
”Gulp …” Suddenly, Jiang Xiaobai heard a cry coming from the fisherman's stomach.
He must be hungry!
Judging from his sallow and skinny face, he probably wouldn't be able to eat his fill.
Jiang Xiaobai felt pity in his heart, and immediately took out the twenty taels of silver from his pocket, and said: ”Brother, do not leave, this is a small token of my appreciation, as payment for saving my life!”
”Silver?” ”Such a huge sum of silver!” The fisherman's eyes widened, and he was unable to speak for a long time.
”Brother, this is what you deserve!” Jiang Xiaobai stretched out his hand.
”No, no. I just saw some splashes and thought there was a big fish, so I didn't sincerely want to save him.” The fisherman quickly waved his hands and said, ”What's more, you might be swimming and not even choking on a mouthful of water. I even spoiled your mood, so how could you ask for money?”
”Take it!” Jiang Xiaobai was not willing to stick around. He stuffed the silver in his hands and turned to leave.
”No, no, that's not necessary. Master, just give me a silver coin …” The living Bodhisattva! ” The fisherman's thoughts were in chaos as he held the silver and kneeled on the ground while kowtowing.
What a pity. It seemed like without the devastation of war, the lives of the people were not going to be optimistic.
”Old master, old master!” Just as Jiang Xiaobai walked to the side of the bridge, the fisherman actually caught up to him again, holding a seven to eight kilogram big carp in his hand, he respectfully brought it to Jiang Xiaobai and said: ”Benefactor, this lowly one has no way to repay you, today we have beaten such a big fish, let this filial feast on you!”
The fisherman's eyes were red and his cheeks were tear-stained. This was the limit of what he could do.
It was just a fish, Jiang Xiaobai smiled as he received it, and said: ”Thank you!”
The fisherman opened his mouth, wanting to ask something, but he was still filled with reverence towards Jiang Xiaobai's identity, and did not dare to do so.
