Chapter 535 - 535 Arowana

535 Arowana

He knew that the price of the white fish was ridiculously high. People also spread rumors about it.

However, he had never tried it before. Such a high price made him stop in his tracks. He could not even afford to buy it to try.

Even his uncle, who often stayed at An Lin’s restaurant to eat and drink, had never tasted the white fish.

“I can help you catch the arowana. You want its eyes, heart, and blood, right? Everything else belongs to me.”

Su Xiaolu had some guesses about this arowana, but she would only know if she caught it first.

Hearing that Su Xiaolu was willing to help, An Lie was very happy and excited. “Thank you, thank you.”

The reason why An Lie wanted Su Xiaolu to like fishing was to make use of the satisfaction of fishing. If Su Xiaolu liked it, she would not let go of the arowana.

However, he did not expect Su Xiaolu to be different from others. Her mood changed too quickly, catching An Lie off guard. He could not be ruthless, so he broke down after losing control of his emotions.

“Do the arowanas like to eat fishy bait?”

Su Xiaolu looked at An Lie and asked.

An Lie nodded. “That’s right. When Father and I came previously, we baited it many times but there was no movement. It only bit the hook when the bait started to smell.”

He had only seen the arowana once and did not know much about its preferences. He only had a good memory and memorized the entire process. He thought about it again and again and came to the final conclusion.

And today’s arowana bite also confirmed his theory.

The arowana had different requirements for bait. If it did not meet the requirements, it would not eat it.

“I’ll go prepare something first.”

With that, Su Xiaolu walked into the cabin.

She had also brought a lot of medicinal herbs, so it was not difficult to make some things.

Perhaps catching an arowana was not that complicated.

Anyway, she would give it a try first.

They were all medicinal herbs that could have effects without affecting the ingredients themselves. It could be said to be perfect.

When Su Xiaolu came out, An Lie looked at her expectantly and nervously. Su Xiaolu walked to the bait bucket and sprinkled the herbs ground into it. Then, she stirred them with a stick.

A strong rotten smell came out.

An Lie immediately prepared a new fishing rod and hung the bait on the hook. He poured the half bucket of bait down and waited quietly.

Ripples appeared on the calm surface of the sea. The fishing rod in An Lie’s hand sank and he shouted, “It bit the hook, Su Lu.”

He looked at Su Xiaolu anxiously, hoping that she could help. He was afraid that his strength would be insufficient and it would all be in vain.

Su Xiaolu came to help.

The waves on the sea were surging, the arowana was indeed too strong.

Even with Su Xiaolu, it was very difficult.

Under the surging sea, Su Xiaolu vaguely saw a black figure, like a huge snake. Before she saw it, Su Xiaolu thought that the arowana was the same as the dragon portrait in her memory, but after seeing it, it really did not look like it at all.

The arowana was very ugly, its eyes were the size of a fist.

It struggled with all its might, but its strength was getting weaker and weaker.

Su Xiaolu knew that the medicinal herbs were working. As expected, after holding on for a while, the arowana completely stopped moving and floated out of the sea.

An Lie was so excited that his eyes turned red. He pulled the arowana to the front of the ship and dragged it up with all his might.

An Lie did not hear the faint tapping sounds.

Su Xiaolu looked at the cabin. When An Lie was telling her about his family matters, Su Xiaolu noticed it. An Lie’s uncle had saved someone and lost a leg.

Su Xiaolu guessed that it was An Cheng. She recalled her previous inquiries and secretly thought that her luck was not good. She wanted to ask about An Lie and just so happened to ask his uncle.

If An Cheng cared about his family, he wouldn’t let An Lie face possible danger. An Cheng should be on the ship, but she didn’t know when he would come out. Now that she heard the sound and saw An Cheng appear, her guess was confirmed.

Their eyes met, and An Cheng chuckled. “What a coincidence, Young Master.”

An Lie had already brought the arowana onto the boat. He was so tired that he sat on the boat, crying and laughing at the same time. When he saw An Cheng, he was overjoyed: “Uncle, I did it, I did it. Sister is saved, Mother’s body can also recover. After eating this arowana flesh, your leg won’t hurt anymore…”

The lost leg could never be returned. As long as it did not hurt all the time, the living could have the spirit to live.

Anyone would go crazy if they were tortured by pain. No matter how good their mental state was, they would collapse from the torture.

But now, with the arowana, all the torture could end. At least their family could regain their courage to face life.

The arowana on the deck squirmed, but very slowly.

An Cheng looked at Su Xiaolu and said respectfully, “Young Master, you’re magnanimous. I hid my identity previously. Please forgive me.”

An Cheng didn’t dare to disrespect someone who could easily catch something that his brother couldn’t even catch with his life.

People could have shallow knowledge, but they could not be ignorant.

“Not this one. That’s not the one Dad stabbed.”

An Lie frowned, he did not see any injuries on the arowana’s stomach. This matter had happened not long ago, even if the arowana had the ability to recover, it was impossible for it to not leave any traces.

This discovery made An Lie feel conflicted.

This was a healthy arowana, full of energy, but it was still caught.

Su Xiaolu pulled out her sword.

An Cheng was shocked and subconsciously protected An Lie. He blurted out, “Young Master, just come at me if you’re angry.”

An Lie was also a little worried.

His martial arts skills were not good, and his uncle was disabled. At this moment, he could not do anything if Su Xiaolu wanted to fall out with him. He had already realized that he was not on the same level as the young man in front of him. He was not his match at all.

“Don’t you want dragon blood? Hurry up and get something to store it. The medicine is about to run out. If we don’t kill it now, when it recovers, it’s hard to say if this ship can hold it.”

Su Xiaolu tapped the tip of her foot lightly, flew up, and stabbed down fiercely, nailing the arowana’s head.

With one hit, the arowana’s snake-like body twisted into a twisted mess, it was tense and ferocious.

An Lie came back to his senses and immediately went to get a clean bucket.

The arowana struggled less and less until there was no movement at all. Su Xiaolu took out her sword, and An Lie picked up the huge head and began to collect the blood.

Su Xiaolu cut the arowana’s abdomen, took out its heart and eyes, and gave them to An Lie.

With such a big arowana, Su Xiaolu gave a piece of meat to An Cheng. “Steam it for us to eat.”

Su Xiaolu prepared to put away the rest.

It was skinned and sealed in a box filled with ice.

This arowana was also full of spiritual energy, even more than the white fish.

The arowana and white fish should have come from the same place, the white fish had already spread like wildfire, what about the arowana? There were still many secrets in this world that would gradually surface over time, perhaps in the future, those ancient legends would slowly appear.
