Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 54: The Death of Song Fugui’s Family
Another two days passed.
Jiang Fan, now promoted to the Bone Forging Realm, beca even more composed and confident. Even if the Red Eyebrow Army really ca, he was confident that he could escape from Osmanthus Village with Su Weiwei.
Of course, he also hadn’t forgotten that he still had a Ninth-Grade Opportunity.
In the afternoon.
Jiang Fan maneuvered the Upturned Boat to the location where the opportunity appeared, and cast his net to catch fish.
As expected, a Black-Scaled Treasure Fish happened to jump into his fishing net.
This resulted in a great harvest for him.
Not only did he catch a Treasure Fish, but he also caught a large quantity of normal fish.
"Yunng Lake is truly a treasure land."
"It not only nurtures a large number of ordinary fish but also many Treasure Fish."
"Even though fishern have been fishing here for thousands of years, Yunng Lake is still so vibrant."
"It seems as if the lake’s fish are endless."
"Could there really be immortals in Yunng Lake?"
Jiang Fan’s eyes flickered.
To be honest, there are many legends about the eight-hundred-mile Yunng Lake.
Once, a giant dragon was said to have fallen in this lake, seemingly having battled with an immortal, thus forming this eight-hundred-mile Yunng Lake.
The deepest part of Yunng Lake is shrouded by vast white clouds.
From ancient tis to now, no one has ever known what lies within the depths of the clouds in the lake.
It’s just known that everyone who enters has never returned.
It’s like a hazardous place waiting to devour people.
Initially, he rely regarded these legends as stories and paid them no mind.
But now, having consecutively obtained two Immortal Treasures, the situation is entirely different.
Undoubtedly, the legend of immortals in Yunng Lake might very well be true.
Otherwise, how could this place have so many Immortal Treasures?
And what of that naless corpse? Why did it die silently in Shoe Peak Mountain, and what is the origin of that token?
It seems like everything is a mystery.
However, he wouldn’t foolishly rush into the misty area of Yunng Lake.
After all, it’s unknown how many people have died there.
Even if he went, it would most likely be a dead end.
So unless he has absolute confidence, he wouldn’t recklessly enter.
Of course, if he were to possess great strength in the future, perhaps he could venture inside.
Because if immortals truly exist in this world, possessing a Cultivation thod, then he certainly would want to try. Who would refuse to beco an immortal?
Practicing martial arts can’t compare to cultivation.
Swoosh!
Thinking of this, Jiang Fan maneuvered the Upturned Boat towards the direction of the Fish Cage.
Although the Dragon King Gang had been eradicated, the Fish Cage hadn’t disappeared.
After all, villagers from more than a dozen villages nearby considered this place a trading market.
Moreover, without the oppression of the Dragon King Gang, the Fish Cage beca even more prosperous.
Because no fishern were forced to sell at low prices by the Dragon King Gang.
As a result, every fisherman’s inco doubled.
Arriving at the Fish Cage’s dock, many fishing boats had already gathered.
The market was bustling, with street vendors putting out their goods for sale.
Whether it was rice, wild vegetables, or other food items, everything was available.
And the prices weren’t particularly high.
Even though the Red Eyebrow Army attacked Tonghe County, it was only the Noble Families of Tonghe County that suffered.
The common people’s losses weren’t particularly significant.
Even if the Red Eyebrow Army killed indiscriminately, resulting in so deaths, overall, it was better than being oppressed to death by the Dragon King Gang.
More importantly, the Red Eyebrow Army is currently focused on attacking the Prefecture City and hasn’t minded small places like the Fish Cage.
Anyone can co here to sell their goods as long as they pay a certain stall fee.
And the stall fee isn’t expensive.
Therefore, each fisherman was beaming; they were experiencing for the first ti the feeling of not being oppressed, as if a huge mountain had vanished from above them.
"Oh, Xiaojiang, I didn’t expect you would have such a big catch today, catching so many fish?"
Instantly, so fishern noticed the baskets filled with lively, bouncing fish on Jiang Fan’s Upturned Boat, which made them quite envious.
"Not bad, not bad. Today’s harvest is indeed decent."
"But I didn’t expect the Fish Cage to be so lively today."
"It seems like many people ca out to the market."
Jiang Fan chuckled, for an occasional bountiful catch was quite normal for fishern.
"Haha, that’s for sure."
"Since the Dragon King Gang was exterminated by the Red Eyebrow Army, no one can control the Fish Cage."
"No one demands our monthly salary."
"And no one forces us to buy or sell, so our inco at least doubled."
"Although the Red Eyebrow Army also collects money, they aren’t as detestable as the Dragon King Gang."
"The Dragon King Gang deserved to die!"
"Indeed. It’s said that so people from Tonghe County have fled the county and co to live in our villages."
"There’s no other way; Tonghe County is still in chaos, with robbery, arson, and many hooligans causing trouble everywhere."
Several fishern exclaid with vigor, feeling quite carefree now.
Before, when coming to the dock, they always t the fierce and ruthless mbers of the Dragon King Gang.
Often getting beaten and scolded.
If unlucky, all their catch would be taken away, with no place to complain.
But now, the Red Eyebrow Army occupied the Fish Cage, only charging so stall fees.
Besides that, there were no additional costs.
Perhaps this was also because the Red Eyebrow Army focused on the Prefecture City, having no ti for the dozen or so fishing villages nearby.
This improved the lives of villages like Osmanthus Village.
Although it’s uncertain what the future holds, for now, their lives are quite easy.
"But it’s a pity that Song Fugui and his family were too unlucky."
"They didn’t live to see the fall of the Dragon King Gang."
"Otherwise, they wouldn’t have died."
Soone sighed.
"Uncle Song is dead?"
Hearing this, Jiang Fan was startled, for he had heard earlier that Song Fugui’s family had fled long ago; he didn’t expect to hear such news here.
"Yes, they died."
"Song Fugui’s family escaped from Tonghe County, heading towards the Prefecture City."
"Unexpectedly, they encountered bandits halfway, and the bandits killed Song Fugui and his family."
"Even their silver taels were completely robbed."
"Soone from the sa county happened to pass by and saw the bodies of Song Fugui’s family, thus learning of this incident."
"Alas, these tis are too chaotic."
Many fishern lanted.
They also initially thought that the family had fled and might have a good future.
Who would have thought, in the blink of an eye, they died.
They didn’t die at the hands of the Dragon King Gang but fell to bandits instead.
It could be said that this was the fate of Song Fugui’s family.
Thinking they could defy fate but still t an unnatural death.
"This."
Jiang Fan fell silent, clenching his fists.
Clearly, in such a chaotic world, no amount of money mattered.
Without strong power, a minor mishap could lead to an untily death.
Choosing to enhance his martial skills back then was indeed the right decision.
Otherwise, no matter how much money he earned, it would rely benefit others in the end.
