Chapter 180: Strange Fish Swarm, Lurker
"It's actually a Crimson Moon Carp?"
Lu Qing was surprised to see the beautiful red fish on his hook.
It was the first type of strange fish he had ever caught, a Crimson Moon Carp.
Moreover, it was much larger than the first one he had caught; it weighed at least three or four pounds.
No wonder he felt that this strange fish had much more strength than the previous ones. It turned out to be such a big guy.
"Woof! Woof! Woof!"
Seeing the Crimson Moon Carp floating in mid-air, Xiao Li couldn't contain her excitement.
She paced back and forth on the shore, her tail wagging impatiently.
If it weren't for her strong aversion to water, Lu Qing suspected that this little creature would have pounced on the fish already.
"Don't worry, I'll take it off for you now."
Lu Qing soothed Xiao Li, took the fish off the hook, and tossed it over.
Swish! Before the fish even hit the ground, Xiao Li snatched it up and ran to the nearby grass to devour it.
As she ate, she also perked up her ears, appearing to be extremely happy.
Seeing the little one eat so eagerly, Lu Qing shook his head and continued fishing.
In fact, he also wanted to taste the Crimson Moon Carp, after all, it was one of the Ten Delicacies of the world.
He still remembered the taste of the Golden Loach, another one of the Ten Delicacies, which he had tried before.
However, Lu Qing also knew that trying to take food from Xiao Li was impossible.
If he did that, the little guy would probably spend the whole day looking at him with those pitiful big eyes.
So, he obediently continued fishing, hoping to catch another one.
Perhaps sensing Lu Qing's expectation, not long after Xiao Li had only eaten half of her fish, something bit the hook again from the depths.
"Could it be that the strange fish gathered here because I haven't been fishing for half a month?"
Feeling the force transmitted from the fishing rod, Lu Qing was delighted.
Only a strange fish could possess such pulling power.
More importantly, he felt that this style of exertion was very familiar! After tugging for a while and reeling the fish in, Lu Qing was even more delighted.
"It's another Crimson Moon Carp! Could there be a school of them down there?"
Looking at the slightly smaller Crimson Moon Carp hanging on the hook, Lu Qing's imagination ran wild.
He quickly removed the fish, put it in the bucket, and baited the hook with two Blood Apricots before casting it back into the water.
Then, a quarter of an hour later, the float sank again.
"There really is a school of Crimson Moon Carp here?"
Seeing the third Crimson Moon Carp he had caught, Lu Qing was surprised, but he also felt that something was amiss.
Even if he hadn't been fishing here for half a month, there shouldn't be so many strange fish all of a sudden.
There must be some reason behind this.
Lu Qing felt that perhaps he should take some time to investigate this matter.
However, despite his confusion, Lu Qing continued fishing, not wanting to waste this rare opportunity.
Finally, after catching two more Crimson Moon Carp, the float stopped moving altogether.
Lu Qing wasn't sure if he had caught all the Crimson Moon Carp below or if the continuous fishing of their kind had scared the rest away.
But he was already very satisfied.
This fishing trip had yielded five Crimson Moon Carp.
Excluding the one Xiao Li had eaten, there were still four left, enough for him, Xiao Yan, and his master to try this delicacy.
"Xiao Li, you've already had the biggest one and you're full. I can only give you two more, but you'll have to wait until tonight to eat them."
Seeing Xiao Li's greedy eyes, Lu Qing quickly said.
Hearing this, Xiao Li looked a little disappointed.
However, she patted her little belly and felt that she was indeed quite full at the moment, and waiting until tonight to eat the rest didn't seem like a bad idea.
Most importantly, she could eat two at once tonight! With that thought, she suddenly felt happy again.
Filled with excitement, the two began to walk home.
As for Xiao Yan, the little one now knew more characters, and her studies had become a little more demanding.
Every morning, she went to the semi-mountain courtyard to receive instruction from the old doctor.
So, when Lu Qing went out fishing in the morning, Xiao Yan couldn't follow him.
