As a eunuch, I don't want to live forever

Chapter 237 Chengyuan River God
It rained for a long time that night.

It didn't stop until the early morning of the next day.

For the people in Chengyuan County, last night's rain was just the same as before, nothing special.

But for everyone in the county government.

This night was probably the most thrilling night they had ever experienced in their lives.

When Zhou Mu returned home, the women at home were already busy in the courtyard,

See him back.

smiled.

He just walked up quickly and said, "What's going on? Why are your clothes all wet? Didn't you say you were on patrol at the Yamen? And it rained?"

she asked.

But the movements in his hands did not stop.

Pulling him into the house.

After finding clean clothes, he went to get some hot water to wipe Zhou Mu's body.

softly.

Full of tenderness.

Zhou Mu explained with a smile: "It rained heavily last night, and the water accumulation in the city became serious. We went out to clear the ditch, so our clothes got wet."

The woman also knew about the heavy rain last night.

He just asked: "Are there not enough coir raincoats in the yamen?"

“A few, but never enough.”

"Then you should go home and take it off. What if you get cold?"

"It's far away from home and people are lazy..."

The woman muttered a few more words, but Zhou Mu did not talk back, but listened with a smile. Not only did he not feel annoyed, but he actually enjoyed the woman's muttering.

He almost thought he would never hear this talk again in his life.

"What about the child?"

he asked.

"Still sleeping,"

As the woman spoke, the man suddenly hugged her, which startled the woman.

His face turned red and he wanted to struggle.

The man said: "Let me hold you for a while."

The woman wanted to push away, but after hearing this, she looked around and found that no one had seen this scene, and finally stopped.

The body is limp.

Hold the man gently.

"problem occurs?"

After sleeping together for many years, I have some understanding of men.

"It's not a big problem, it's all over..."

……

With the chirping of birds in the morning.

Chen Luo pushed open the courtyard door.

Stretching.

It happened that he met Li Wenxian who had returned.

Chen Luo smiled and said, "You're back?"

"came back."

"Things seem to be going well?"

"Not bad!"

"That's good."

"Going out?"

"fishing!"

"???"

Going fishing early in the morning...Brother Chen is really leisurely.

Looking at Chen Luo leaving, Li Wenxian began to think thoughtfully. He might have doubts in his heart, but he was not sure.

The sword from last night...

Magistrate Xue didn't understand.

Li Wenxian didn't understand either.

But the only thing that is certain is that there are strong people in this city that even they cannot see through.

Chen Luo... was the first person Li Wenxian suspected.

Just, is it him?

Li Wenxian thought, maybe he should ask...

The city is full of kindness from the people.

His and Lao Xue's lives.

There should always be something grateful in my heart...

……

Chen Luo didn't know what Li Wenxian was thinking.

to him.

The sword from last night never existed.

Nothing is more important than fishing right now...

The matter in Chengyuan County is over.

There is nothing to see in this bustle, so naturally Chen Luo and the others should leave.

It’s just that the cat lady likes fish.

Xiaobai also likes it.

There happens to be a river in Chengyuan County.

This river is Chengyuan River.

There is a fish in the river...

It’s called Chengyuan Fish.

Unlike other fish, Chengyuan fish has delicious meat, and apart from the bone spurs, there are no other fine spines on its body...

Chen Luo ate it once.

I was completely fascinated by this fish.

Now that I have to leave, I have to go fishing on the Chengyuan River and take it back.

Therefore, Chen Luo came to Chengyuan River alone early in the morning.

It is also a surprise.

He originally thought that there would be no one by the river, but he was really shocked when he reached the Chengyuan River.

On the entire Chengyuan River, there is one person every ten steps and a fishing rod every five steps.

At a glance, there were not only fifty fishermen but a hundred people on the long river bank.

When they saw Chen Luo arriving, they didn't even look at it, they just stared at the lake...

probably.

In their eyes, even if the sky falls, it will not stop them from fishing.

Find a place to sit down.

Next to him is an elderly man...

The old man is mottled and stooped, and he looks like he is 78 years old. He is not a hidden outsider.

People in this world cannot be judged by their appearance.

Some people like to pretend to be pigs and eat tigers.

They may have special means to hide their cultivation, but some things cannot be hidden.

Such good luck!
This old man's luck is so good that it can be ignored.

It is likely that we will reach the end of our life span in just a few years...

Therefore, mortals have no doubt.

When the old man saw Chen Luo sitting down, he turned around and greeted Chen Luo: "I'm unfamiliar with you, little brother. Is this your first time fishing?"

"Did the old man see it?" 0
"That's not!"

The old man said: "I have been fishing in the Chengyuan River for decades. The old man knows all the fishermen... Look..."

He pointed at a man next to him and said: "This guy is Zhong Ji, nicknamed Zhong Heishou. He doesn't catch a few fish a year. He's a human being and he's addicted..."

The man obviously heard what the old man said,

A face turned completely dark.

"Go, go, old man Du, can you speak? What do you mean by being talented but also addicted to food? Is that because I'm unlucky?"

talking.

The man said to Chen Luo: "Little brother, I suggest you talk to Old Man Du less. He is very unlucky. The person sitting next to him needs air force every day! If you don't talk to him, it will be better!"

Chen Luo smiled and nodded.

It was a response to his words.

Old Man Du was not angry and continued: "That dark, thin man is called Lu Kan. He is from the Lu family in the city. That man is called Dong Daquan and runs a grocery store. That is Fu Yuanliang..."

The old men pointed at Chen Luo one by one.

He was right.

He actually knew all the fishermen here.

Sure enough, he is worthy of someone who has been fishing for decades...

Old Man Du also told Chen Luo.

"This Chengyuan fish is delicious and is the most famous fish here. People come to buy it from hundreds of miles away. The price is also expensive. Therefore, most of the people who fish here are unable to go fishing to support their families.

If you catch five or six fish in a day, you will have some income and you can support your family.

As for those who are really motivated by interest, there are very few...and these people often don't catch any fish. "

Old Man Du pointed at Zhong Ji: "He just comes here for fun. Unfortunately, if you can catch one in a day, you are very lucky!"

Zhong Ji obviously wanted to quibble.

But he opened his mouth.

Finally got discouraged.

Although Old Man Du's words were a little unpleasant, he was also a little worried.

But the problem is that every statement is true.

So I can’t even make excuses...

"What about you? Why come to fish?"

Chen Luo said: "Probably it's also because of interest, right?"

So as soon as these words came out, old man Du laughed, and Zhong Ji also laughed.

"Good interest, good interest, come on, young man!"

Old Man Du said to Chen Luo: "You will get used to it if you make more empty trips..."

This is the mystery of Chengyuan River.

If you really need a few fish, then it will not be stingy.

But if it is for selfish desires and interests, even fish will be a bit disgusting.

Interested...

This is what it hates to hear the most.

At first glance, this young man had never been severely beaten, but it was okay. The fish in the Chengyuan River would make him understand the feeling of returning empty-handed without having any fun.

Chen Luo nodded.

“The most important thing is to participate!”

Fishing...he never forced it.

Whatever you can get is what you get.

Not that I care that much.

Of course, it would be better if we could catch a few fish and bring them back to make the cat lady happy.

Take out the fishing rod.

No bait either.

throw out.

The hook sank into the river.

Old Man Du wiped his eyes, probably trying to make sure he had seen something wrong.

Then he couldn't help but ask: "What are you doing?"

"fishing."

Chen Luo replied.

"The old man knows that you fish, but the question is why you fish without bait, so you fish for nothing?"

He lived for decades.

I have never seen fishing like this.

Chen Luo replied: "Just let nature take its course. Maybe more fish will catch this way."

Old Man Du chuckled.

He finally understood that this young man was also an innocent boy.

It’s also taken for granted.

More fish?
Old Man Du shook his head and said nothing more.

This young man will soon understand that some things cannot be achieved naturally.

However, the next scene made Old Man Du stunned.

The young man's hook dropped.

In less than a few seconds, a fish came up...

That's fine.

The surface of the river fluctuated, and at some point a group of fish had gathered in front of him.

Or jump out of the river.

Or impatient.

Not only did Old Man Du open his mouth wide, but so did the surrounding fishermen.

"This...what's the matter?"

Zhong Ji looked at the fish that kept jumping towards the shore.

Looking at Chen Luo who looked helpless.

Mouth wide open.

This... hell?

Chen Luo also had a headache.

here again?

This kind of fishing is a little too boring, right?
This is one of...

The second is that he finally got himself into trouble.

He sighed slightly.

He raised his head and looked at the river...

At some point, thick fog appeared on the river.

Strange to say.

The mist was so thick that the fishermen around him didn't notice it at all.

Chen Luo looked back again.

Are there any Old Man Du or Mr. Zhong Yu around me...

Only thick fog,

Only the river surface.

And the reeds swaying in the wind behind me.

It was also at this time that the river surface surged, as if it were boiling.

Someone appears from the river.

Ride the wave.

Stepping on the river.

The scent of incense on his body was extremely strong, and there was a vaguely familiar smell.

Chen Luo recognized this smell.

There are also city gods in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The former Zeshan mountain god also had it.

The man was quite old and had white hair.

Jiang Mian supported him and came towards Chen Luo.

"I have seen a fairy..."

He salutes.

Chen Luo stood up and replied: "Who is the old gentleman?"

"The small body is the river god in Chengyuan River."

"It turns out to be the river god."

Chen Luo sighed.

With the advent of the prosperous age of cultivating immortals.

The more spiritual things there are in the world.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, there were city gods and mountain gods.

The big trunk on the side of the ice forest should naturally be there.

What Chen Luo didn't expect was that he would meet the River God just after arriving in Daqian.

"I wonder what the river god Xun is doing here?"

"It's nothing. It's just that the immortal takes fish here and has a chance to meet the fish in the river. This is a good thing, but the little god hopes that the immortal can take less, leaving hope for the Chengyuan River..."

He is the river god and governs the Chengyuan River. The people's choices of things in the river are also under his control.

"I see, the River God is relieved, I'm..."

Chen Luo felt that this river god might not be a bit exaggerated.

I'm just fishing, how much can I catch?

Some fish are jumping towards me one after another, but how many can they jump on?
However, when he turned around, Chen Luo suddenly became quiet.

He thought that he finally understood why the river god came out, and even begged himself to take less.

The place where I stood was filled with Chengyuan fish at some point.

At a glance.

There are layers upon layers of riverbanks...

Like a hill, it fills the entire riverside.

One by one, they cover the sky and the sun.

Like raindrops, these fish surged up from the river onto the river bank.

Tens of thousands is no exaggeration.

"I didn't notice this."

Chen Luo was ashamed.

This is fishing?

This is the kind of thing that will destroy Chengyuan River!

He Shen said: "The breath of the immortal blends into the heaven and earth, and there is a temptation that is difficult for living beings to resist. Therefore, the immortal appears here. The creatures all over the river naturally like the immortal.

If you can win the favor of the immortal, even if you die, you will gain a lot, but the immortal himself doesn't know it. "

It turned out to be the case.

Chen Luo has always been curious.

Why do those monsters, evil creatures, and intelligent creatures always like to be close to me?

Especially this river fish, if you have the intention of fishing, it will be closer to you.

It turns out that I have an aura that they like...

Is it the natural energy of heaven and earth?
Or yin and yang?

Or what?
Chen Luo didn't know, but now it seems that this is not a bad thing.

"I'll tell them now and ask the river god to rest assured."

Chen Luo said to He Shen.

The river god nodded.

"Thank you Immortal for your kindness."

Chen Luo nodded and saluted to the Chengyuan fish in the river: "I also invite you gentlemen to enter the river... You can just let everything happen, you can't fight for it, you can't snatch it away... I also ask you gentlemen not to embarrass me."

The Chengyuan fish in the river calmed down.

Immediately, the fish on the river bank jumped back to the river.

The river god saluted with satisfaction.

bow.

back off.

The fog cleared.

It's like nothing happened.

Old Man Du and a group of fishermen were still looking at him in surprise...

Chen Luo smiled.

Not talking.

The fish has become calm,

But every time I set the hook, a fish takes the bait...

Or big!
Or small.

There are all kinds...

But when Chen Luoruo saw the smaller one, he threw it back into the river.

Old Man Du didn't understand how Chen Luo did it.

Today's fish, crazy?
Even Zhong Ji was confused.

I always feel like something is wrong.

Chen Luo didn't explain either.

I just said let nature take its course...

Ring noon.

Chen Luo then returned to the courtyard carrying a bucket full of Chengyuan fish.

Fish in hand.

In fact, there are also many in the storage bag!
Chen Luo also wanted to carve a large incense array on the fish. He thought that the fish would be better if it was nourished by incense.

Unfortunately, storage bags cannot support living things.

It's just a little less fun.

"How about forging one yourself?"

It should be fun to forge a ring storage bag that can feed things, right?
Shake his head and don't think too much about it for now.

Because there are guests visiting this courtyard today...
