Elven settlers

Chapter 191 Luck
"The water in this river is relatively deep, so there is room for big fish to live. The shade of these nearby trees can provide shelter for these fish in the water during the hot summer."

Rock told the elves beside him clearly and logically, the reason why he chose this place.

Geranium was lying behind him, poking its head out from behind his left shoulder, and surrounded Rock together with Arbor and Heruga on the left and right.

Together with Chenglong lying on Rock's right shoulder, the four elves nodded repeatedly listening to Rock's analysis, and then looked expectantly at the birch bark buoy floating on the water.

"In addition, I'm sure that the berries in the bush next to me are a favorite food for the fish Pokémon in the nearby waters. Those guys should often jump out of the water to eat these berries."

Rock grabbed the next berry and held it in his hands, continuing his talk.

At this moment, Chenglong, who was lying on his shoulder, suddenly pushed his head against his cheek, and the movements of the geraniums became a little urgent.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Rock also felt the abnormality, so he looked up, and suddenly found that the float on the water had been pulled away into the water one by one.

"Haha, a good start!"

Seeing this scene, Rock immediately judged that a fish had taken the bait. He held the fishing rod tightly with both hands, then inhaled to accumulate strength, and suddenly lifted the fishing rod upwards.

However, there was no pulling force as imagined in his hand. Rock was shaken by his own huge strength, and he turned backwards directly, hitting Geranium behind him.

Even Chenglong on his shoulders was thrown off by him, but fortunately it was caught by Geranium.

After sitting up from the ground, Rock took the hook and found that there was nothing but the berries he wore before.

"Haha, I made a mistake, I was a little anxious to lift the pole this time, but my judgment is correct, there are indeed fish here."

Rock, who missed the first pole, didn't feel disappointed, he took over the dragon from Geranium.After scratching its chin, he continued to put it on his shoulder, and then threw the hook out again.

With the first experience, Rock felt that he should be stable this time.

The elves felt the same way, they were still concentrating on staring at the float on the water with Roque.

Sure enough, the piece of birch bark that was used as a float soon started to move again and again.

"Don't worry...don't worry...the guy in the water is very cunning, he should be testing it now."

Rock murmured softly, as if explaining to the elves, and as if admonishing himself.

Abo blamed them for nodding their heads again and again. After feeling the tense atmosphere, their breathing slowed down a lot, for fear of affecting Rock's performance.

"It's now!"

Seeing that all the birch bark suddenly sank, Rock let out a low growl, and then suddenly lifted the fishing rod again.

There was a strong pull on the fishing rod in his hand, and Rock felt that he must be sure this time.

But what he didn't expect was that the pulling force only lasted for less than a second, and then dissipated in an instant.

The fishhook quickly broke through the water, and there was nothing on it.

"Tsk, it's bad luck this time, and I'll definitely hit it next time."

Rock took a bite, put berries on the hook again, and then threw the hook into the water vigorously.

Although they failed to catch fish twice, the elves still had confidence in Rock.

Moreover, Rock's choice of this place is really good. It is on the bank of the river and has shade. The environment is very cool. They lie comfortably on the thick meadow and continue to accompany Rock to fish with great interest.

But luck is often unpredictable. What Rock and the elves didn't expect was that Rock didn't succeed in the next few bites.

Every time there are such and other unexpected situations that make him almost catch the fish.

The closest to success, Rock even saw a horned goldfish being raptured in mid-air.

But at the last moment, the horned goldfish was suddenly hit by a king carp that accidentally jumped out of the water with a splash of water, causing it to run away.

After experiencing countless times of decoupling, the elves gradually became bored.

First, Hei Lujia got up and chased after spotting a few butterflies flying nearby.

Then Geranium, after seeing Hei Lujia who was chasing Ba Dadie having a good time, also joined in.

The last one is Arbor. After taking a nap, it found that Roque still hadn't caught a single fish, so he also left silently.

Now with Rock, only Chenglong lying on his shoulders is left.

"Don't worry little guy, luck won't be bad all the time, I have a hunch that it will definitely succeed this time."

"Boooo..."

Chenglong responded weakly to Rock, but he was no longer looking at him, but turned his head to look at Abo who were playing together, full of yearning.

"I'm coming!"

Rock suddenly sat up straight and tightened the fishing rod in his hand. This time, the pulling force from the fishing rod was stronger than ever before.

The elf biting the hook was struggling very violently. Rock could only feel the force from his hand going left and right, up and down, trying very hard to get rid of the fishing rod in his hand.

So he kept adjusting the strength of his hands, sometimes tensing and sometimes relaxing, to deal with the underwater opponent.

There was a lot of water splashing on the river in an instant.

I don't know how long it took, but Rock finally felt that the power from the fishing rod became weaker.

So he took the opportunity to kneel down on one knee, adjusted his body posture, twisted his waist and exerted strength, and lifted the hook-biting elf up in one breath.

It was a light gray elongated elf, which Rock had seen yesterday, it was a loach.

At this time, the mud loach was twisting its body weakly in mid-air, but it was still firmly hanging on the hook, and was being inevitably pulled towards the shore by Rock.

"Ha ha!"

Looking at the loach being pulled over by him, the corners of Rock's mouth had already grinned, and the sixth tooth had been exposed.

At this moment, a scene that he never dreamed of appeared.

A burst of dazzling white light suddenly appeared from the body of the loach flying in the air.

This burst of white light is very familiar to Roque. Not long ago, when Roque was attacked by the huge catfish king in the flood, it was the critical moment when his bay leaf emitted such light, and then successfully evolved into a geranium Turn defeat into victory.

Now he saw the dazzling light of evolution again, but this time from his opponent.

As soon as the light came on, Rock's hook was thrown off.

Holding the fishing rod that had become empty again, he watched the loach fall back into the water, evolve into a fat king catfish, and make a large splash on the river.

"Well~"

The catfish king who fell back into the river surfaced again, looked at Roque with a sneer on his blank face, and quickly got into the bottom of the water and ran away.
