Transmigrated As A Delicate Bundle Of Luck For A Farming Family Chapter 545 - 545 Extraction

Chapter 545 - 545 Extraction

545 Extraction

Su Xiaolu would not be merciful when it came to teaching An Lie.

An Lie’s starting point in martial arts was already lagging behind. It was impossible for him to not be hardworking now.

After boarding the s.h.i.+p, Old Wu and Gui You went into the cabin to rest.

After the s.h.i.+p left the port, An Cheng started steering the s.h.i.+p.

Su Xiaolu asked An Lie to practice the basics. There were no wooden stakes on the s.h.i.+p, so he had to stand on one foot.

He stood for an hour.

An Lie did not expect martial arts to be so difficult. Standing still was the most torturous. It was really painful.

Su Xiaolu stood on the deck and said casually, “Let me give you a piece of advice. If you feel pain, empty your thoughts. You can circulate your Internal Breath or meditate. Don’t focus on your legs.”

Thinking about how she had stood on a pillar back then, it had also been extremely painful.

Now that she had taken in a disciple, seeing her disciple suffer like this, she felt a sense of satisfaction.

The sea breeze was salty and humid, and the spiritual energy was rich. The spiritual energy on the surface of the sea was getting richer day by day. Su Xiaolu did not waste it. She sat down and began to expirate spiritual energy to circulate her Internal Breath.

When it was dark, An Cheng caught fish for dinner.

Fresh fish were delicious even if they were simply steamed.

At night, An Cheng and An Lie were fis.h.i.+ng while Su Xiaolu was grinding herbs.

On the third day, they arrived at that sea area, it was a sunny day.

Su Xiaolu poured the medicinal powder she had prepared into a bucket of fish pieces. Immediately, the fishy smell spread.

An Lie carried the bucket and poured the bait into the sea.

Not long after, the iron chain of the fis.h.i.+ng rod sank.

After a fierce struggle, the waves on the surface of the sea were lifted. This was a huge arowana, comparable to the one they caught a few days ago. It was very strong and fierce, but under the effect of the medicine, it fainted not long after biting the hook. It could only be pulled ash.o.r.e.

Gui You raised his sword and chopped off its head, the arowana’s body started to move, but it gradually calmed down.

Su Xiaolu immediately said to An Cheng, “Come and help. Extract it on the spot.”

It was enough for Old Wu, Gui You, and An Lie to fish for arowana.

An Cheng nodded. He didn’t know what Su Xiaolu wanted to do. When he saw Su Xiaolu asking him to start a fire, he reacted. “Young Master, did you ask us to buy a few large pots for this?”

Su Xiaolu nodded. “We don’t have to bring this arowana ash.o.r.e. We can just extract the essence in the sea and drink the spiritual liquid.”

Eating meat occupied one’s stomach. A person could drink a few kilograms of spiritual liquid, but they could not eat a whole arowana.

An Cheng was not stupid. He quickly understood what Su Xiaolu meant. This was actually very convenient. If they could not finish it, it would not spoil no matter how long they stored it.

An Cheng was even more motivated.

The few large pots were filled to the brim.

A few hours later, only three catties of spiritual liquid were extracted. An Lie watched Su Xiaolu separate them into bottles with his own eyes. There were a total of 30 bottles, and he got three.

The fish meat dregs were directly poured into the sea and eaten by the small fish and prawns.

On the deck, there were still two arowanas waiting for extraction.

Su Xiaolu and An Cheng got busy again.

At daybreak, all the arowanas had been extracted into spiritual liquid. They obtained another fifty bottles, and An Cheng got five bottles.

When no arowana took the bait, everyone returned to their rooms to rest.

An Cheng tasted the spiritual liquid carefully and gave three bottles to An Lie. “Little Lie, drink.”

An Lie waved his hand and said, “Uncle, drink it. Master gave it to me too. I got five bottles.”

An Cheng smiled. “Your Master treats you well.”

Su Xiaolu gave Old Wu and Gui You 20 bottles each.

The spiritual liquid was sweet and delicious. If they drank so much at once, they would feel sleepy as if they were drunk.

Su Xiaolu stopped drinking after two bottles. She put the rest in the s.p.a.ce.

While they were resting, she would expirate her Internal Breath and circulate her internal cultivation techniques.

Cultivating on the surface of the sea was really twice the result with half the effort. The spiritual energy rushed into her nose, and her body became light.

It was dawn. After sleeping for a night, everyone was in high spirits.

Old Wu complained about the stench. His entire body was covered in black sweat and it was very smelly.

Everyone had it, but a few of them had more of it.

After was.h.i.+ng up, they sat together.

After fis.h.i.+ng for a long time, no arowana took the bait, only some small fish took the bait.

Su Xiaolu collected them and extracted them. Little fish were different from arowana. There was very little spiritual liquid that could be extracted. She could not even extract half a bottle from ten of them.

It was a waste of firewood.

“Master, I’m good at swimming. I’ll go down and see what’s going on.”

An Lie volunteered.

Su Xiaolu nodded. “Yes, go into the water and take a look. If anything goes wrong, come back immediately.”

An Lie nodded. He had grown up by the sea and was naturally good at swimming.

After such a long time, they still couldn’t catch an arowana. It was obvious that the situation was strange, it was better to go down and take a look.

Gui You gave him a dagger.

An Lie was very grateful. “Thank you, Grandmaster.”

Gui You frowned. He had become a Grandmaster? Forget it. He could not be bothered to talk to An Lie anymore. He could call him whatever he wanted.

An Lie went into the sea. He held a dagger in his hand and was as agile as a fish. After taking a deep breath, he sank into the sea in one go.

After seeing the situation in the sea, An Lie was shocked.

He quickly returned to the boat and Su Xiaolu pulled him up.

An Lie wiped his face and s.h.i.+vered. “Master, there are many… many, many arowanas under the sea. They are circling the s.h.i.+p.”

But they didn’t bite the bait.

When he saw it, he felt a chill down his spine. Now that he thought about it, it was terrifying. He could not explain why there were so many arowanas.

Why were there so many? There were so many that his scalp went numb just by looking at them. He could not even count them all.

“Could it be that this thing has intelligence? It knows that it will die if it eats the bait, so it doesn’t eat it?”

An Cheng frowned and asked. Did fish have intelligence? He didn’t think so, but he didn’t know anything about arowana either. This thing had disappeared for thousands of years.

It was not surprising that the mysterious things in the ancient books were different from ordinary fish. It was just that imagining that scene was a little scary.

“Then let’s not move for now. We’ll rest for a day and deal with it tomorrow.”

Su Xiaolu thought for a moment and said.

She did not know if the arowanas could think, but this thing was a treasure. They did not take the bait, but they also did not take the initiative to attack the s.h.i.+p. She would stop for a while and a.s.sess the situation tomorrow.

At night, Su Xiaolu lay in bed and could not fall asleep. She thought about why the ancient creatures that had disappeared were appearing in this world every day.

When she expanded her thoughts, she got close to thinking of a reason.

Fusion. When this word appeared in her mind, Su Xiaolu had an epiphany.

Two worlds fused, and the s.p.a.ce of two different dimensions merged into one world. This was the reason for the changes in the world.

In this world, spiritual energy had already dried up. People would only have Internal force when they practiced martial arts, but it was impossible for them to cultivate spiritual energy. The world with the arowana was still filled with spiritual energy. Everything in that world was a treasure. The two worlds had fused together, which was why the spiritual energy in this world had recovered.
