The Path of the Sage

Chapter 1063: Return with a full load

Views:

Under the bright sunshine, on the calm blue sea, a dragon boat emitting golden light was moving rapidly.

Fang Yun stood on the dragon head and kept casting the rod.

As he continued fishing, Fang Yun found that he could catch or predict the trajectory of the Wenxin fish better than before. He even discovered that for every inch the Wenxin fish grew, its speed would increase by one point.

In addition, the fishing rod is now more handy. Before, no matter how he cast the rod, Fang Yun always felt there was a large error, but now, the error is getting smaller and smaller.

As for all the elements that affect fishing, such as flight resistance and sea water resistance, Fang Yun has already firmly grasped them.

Every time he successfully fishes, Fang Yun makes a little progress.

Now, when fishing for Wenxin fish less than one foot long, Fang Yun will definitely catch it with one cast of the rod.

For low-quality Chinese mackerel fish between one to five feet long, the first cast of the rod will slow the fish down, and the third cast will definitely catch it.

As for medium-quality Wenxin fish that are over five feet long, Fang Yun has to cast the rod five times on average to catch it, because medium-quality Wenxin fish are fast and cunning, and the key is to avoid fish hooks.

As for the ten-foot-long top-quality Wenxin fish, Fang Yun had tried to block it five times, but failed all five times!

Fang Yun was not discouraged. As long as the big Wenxin fish appeared, he would rush over immediately, force it into a corner, and start fishing. Once three attempts failed and the big Wenxin fish dived into the water, he would immediately rush to the nearest medium-quality Wenxin fish.

In the first five times, Fang Yun’s fishing hook was very far away from the big Wenxin fish.

From the sixth time, Fang Yun's fishhook finally entered within two inches of the big Wenxin fish. The power of every inch of time allowed the fishhook to hurt the big Wenxin fish and slow down its speed.

The seventh time, the fishhook hurt the big catfish twice, slowing down its speed again.

The deceleration force is accumulating!

For the eighth time, the first round of casting injured the big Wenxin fish again. Then, Fang Yun seized the opportunity and cast the rod again!

The fishhook landed accurately within an inch of the big catfish's mouth!

An incomprehensible scene appeared for the big bream. The golden fishhook was clearly more than half an inch away, but it rushed into its mouth like lightning and hooked its lips.

Fang Yun held the fishing rod in both hands. His eyes were full of joy, and he reeled in the line vigorously, even jumping from the dragon head to the deck, reeling in the line while retreating quickly!

Unlike other Wenxin fish, this big Wenxin fish has the power of a monster. It struggled frantically in the water. The fishing line was taut. Every time Fang Yun took two steps back, he would be pulled forward one step by the big Wenxin fish.

Fang Yun felt that what he caught was not a big mullet, but a whale!

This is the most difficult step in catching top quality Wenxin fish!

If the will is not strong, then the body of the mind in the sea of learning will not be strong enough to drag the Wenxin fish!

If the fishing rod is not strong enough, the hook and fishing line may break!

This is the ultimate test of poetry learning and will.

After Fang Yun had retreated nearly twenty feet, he finally could not retreat any further. Although the fishing line was slowly shrinking, he kept sliding towards the bow. Even though he desperately stepped on the deck with his feet and leaned his body back, it was of no avail.

Fang Yun slowly slid towards the bow.

Once you are pulled to the side of the boat, if you don't let go, the big Wenxin fish will drag you into the sea, resulting in failure to cross the sea!

That was a huge fish that was over 12 feet long, as tall as two people!

However, Fang Yun was not discouraged at all and dragged the fishing rod with all his strength.

Squeak...

Fang Yun's shoes made a harsh sound on the deck.

Snap, snap, snap…

The big mullet was hooked out of the water, but its tail kept hitting the side of the boat, causing the whole boat to shake.

Now, it’s the final stage of fishing for the mullet.

Even a tower ship would be smashed to pieces by this big Wenxin fish if it was not reinforced by learning poetry!

The man and the fish slowly approached.

When Fang Yun was dragged to about two meters away from the bow, the fishing rod bent into an arc, and half of the fish head poked out from the side of the boat. The fishhook hooked the fish's mouth and there was blood flowing. The fish's eyes, which were bigger than fists, stared at Fang Yun like a dark abyss.

"Give me… "

"Get on the boat!" Fang Yun shouted in a low voice. He combined all his strength and will into one. The muscles in his arms bulged like rocks and he pulled the fishing rod back violently.

A large silver Wenxin fish, as tall as two people, flew into the air and landed on the deck. Its tail slapped the deck with a crackling sound, and then it was wrapped by a huge transparent bubble.

Fang Yun sat down on the deck, looked at the huge Chinese sturgeon floating in the air, breathed a long sigh of relief, and felt sore all over.

Fang Yun didn't rest. He took a deep breath, stood up and scanned the entire ship.

There are dozens of bubbles of different sizes floating in the dragon boat, and there is a Wenxin fish in each bubble.

In the several hours from entering Xuehai to the edge of the typhoon, Fang Yun only caught three Wenxin fish, but just after entering the eye of the typhoon for a quarter of an hour, he had caught dozens of them.

There were forty-three Wenxin fish less than one foot long.

There are twenty-one low-quality Wenxin fish ranging from one foot to five feet in length.

There are fourteen medium-quality Wenxin fish ranging from five feet to ten feet in length!

A top quality Wenxin fish!

In the eye of this typhoon, Fang Yun caught seventy-nine eloquent Wenxin fish!

Fang Yun smiled happily, like a fisherman returning home with a full load, walked quickly to the dragon head, and controlled the dragon boat to rush towards the exit of the eye of the typhoon.

However, the moment the dragon boat turned, Fang Yun saw a golden light rushing across the sea.

"Golden light?"

White fish represents ordinary literary mind, silver fish represents supreme literary mind, and golden fish represents momentary literary mind!

Although the instantaneous literary mind can only be used once, each kind of literary mind has a huge effect.

Fang Yun used all his strength to control the boat and chased after the golden light. He saw a small golden fish only one inch long swimming in the sea.

The golden fish is twice as fast as the big mullet!

"We can't let it run away!" Fang Yun tried his best to control the dragon boat to chase it, but unfortunately, the golden fish was too fast. After Fang Yun chased it for a while, the golden fish rushed in and out of the edge of the typhoon eye and disappeared.

"pity… "

Fang Yun sighed lightly. This was the most frustrating thing about the instantaneous literary mind. No one knew where it would stay, so even if you encountered it, it would be like a fleeting moment, and there was no way you could catch it.

Everyone who gets the Setsuna Bunshin Fish is a lucky person.

Fang Yun was a little unwilling to give up, so he fished in the eye of the typhoon for another half a quarter of an hour. He found that the golden fish did not appear again, so he had to leave.

There are still a few medium-quality Wenxin fish in the eye of the typhoon, but there are more than eleven medium-quality silver carps. Any more will have to be given away or traded to others. Instead of continuing to fish here, it is better to go out for a race.

In this half quarter of an hour, Fang Yun caught another fourteen small fish, a total of ninety-three!

Ninety-six bubbles of various sizes are floating above the dragon boat.

Fang Yun took a last look at the eye of the typhoon and drove the dragon boat into the eye of the typhoon.

In the violent whirlwind, Fang Yun once again endured great pain, and the dragon boat was once again hit by the typhoon. The typhoon was as strong as when it came in, but the dragon boat was more stable than before.

In the dark typhoon, the strong wind cut through his body and Fang Yun screamed in pain. After an unknown amount of time, Fang Yun felt his whole body lighten and he quickly opened his eyes.

The sky was covered with dark clouds, the rain was pouring, the waves were roaring, and the environment was obviously extremely harsh, but Fang Yun felt a little warm.

The eye of a typhoon is too terrifying. It can not only crush ordinary ships easily, but also damage people's spiritual thoughts and will. Fang Yun even suspected that if he entered another eye of a typhoon, his spiritual thoughts would be weakened even more, making it impossible to enter the center of the sea, and he would be unable to fish even if he encountered a big fish.

"Huh..."

Fang Yun let out a long sigh and finally left the typhoon.

"Fang Yun!"

"Fang Xusheng!"

Everyone burst into excitement.

"On your ship..."

"Oh my God, are you using a fishing net to catch fish?" Wucuo Novel Network does not skip words.

"No. I suspect that the war poems were used to summon hundreds of war poem fishermen to help!"

Everyone was staring at the dozens of bubbles on the dragon boat and the fish inside. Some boats were obviously fishing, but when they saw the bubbles, they stopped and let the Wenxin fish leave.

"Look! There's a big guy, at least 13 feet tall, right? It's covered in silver light, so beautiful."

"Is that... a top-grade Wenxin fish? Fang Yun has been in there for less than half an hour, and he actually managed to catch a top-grade Wenxin fish. He is simply... too lucky."

"I remember that the great scholar Yi Zhishi also caught a top-grade Wenxin fish, but it took him four hours. After swallowing the Wenxin fish, his will collapsed and he was blown into the sea by the sea breeze, ending his fishing trip."

"Seven years ago, a Jinshi from our family also saw a top-grade Wenxin fish, but he couldn't catch it after fishing for an hour. In the end, he had to give up and turned to look for a mid-grade Wenxin fish."

Kong Delun stared at Fang Yun blankly, muttering to himself: "Is it possible that all the fish in the eye of the typhoon were caught..."

Many ships were heading towards Fang Yun at a rapid speed, talking loudly at the same time.

Fang Yun carefully observed his dragon boat. After experiencing two typhoons, the dragon boat became stronger and could definitely pass through the typhoon wall!

Fang Yun found that the dragon boat was safe and sound, so he felt relieved. Then he heard Kong Delun's voice.

"Brother Fang, how many Wenxin fish did you see in the eye of the typhoon?"

"At least five or six thousand." Fang Yun was not willing to say too much. The fish were indeed too densely packed. If it weren't for the competition, Fang Yun believed that he could catch several thousand Wenxin fish.

"So many? Usually there are only more than a hundred. It seems that the saints have invested a lot of money this time. You must seize the opportunity." Kong Delun said.

"Thank you, Brother Kong. The largest, middle-grade, eloquent fish is yours." Fang Yun said.

"As long as we win the race." Kong Delun said with a smile.

"In order to preserve these literary talents, we must go all out!" Fang Yun said in an extremely firm tone.

"Well, seize the opportunity!" Kong Delun said with a smile.

Fang Yun was stunned. He was no longer the poor little boy. When Kong Delun said "seize the opportunity" for the first time, he might have just been referring to the Wenxin fish. But he emphasized again that it was impossible to only refer to the Wenxin fish.

"Seize the opportunity... The saints have invested a lot... It seems that they understand something..." Fang Yun pondered carefully, and somewhat realized what Kong Delun reminded him of, and then looked at the other ships.

After a while, all the boats approached, and there were five Wenxin fish on the boat of the stupid scholar Tian Songshi, including a five-foot-long common Wenxin fish.

Fang Yun secretly clicked his tongue, thinking that he was indeed worthy of being a great scholar. If he had not entered the eye of the typhoon and only fished at the edge of the typhoon, he would probably have caught only two or three more fish than the stupid scholar.

However, Tian Songshi did not seem to plan to use them directly and left all the Wenxin fish on the boat.

"Let's go, hit the typhoon wall! I'll lead the way and suppress the wind and waves!" Fang Yun stood on the dragon head, full of vigor and vitality.
