Chapter 632: Howling Due to Scales

As soon as others heard that they had caught a dragon, more people came over and the pier was suddenly crowded.

"Hey, hey, be careful, don't squeeze people in!" "Take it easy, take it easy!"

Li Laosan, who was docking over there, also waved his hand quickly.

"It's not that we caught a dragon, it's just a dragon scale. Hey, be careful!"

The lively and noisy movement also attracted Yi Shuyuan's attention. He walked over there with Hui Mian. He couldn't squeeze in so he watched from the outside and saw the people on the fishing boat shouting hard.

The fishermen on the boat all have dark complexions, and the years of sea breeze have left many ravines on their faces, but everyone on the boat seems to be very excited this time.

The third son, Mr. Li, looked short but very strong. Together with his son on the same boat, he carried a large wooden barrel to a more conspicuous position on the bow of the boat, pointed inside and shouted.

"There are dragon scales in it. Let me tell you, I just set up a net before dawn. There are bursts of light while the net is still under the water. This is a treasure."

There was no light in the barrel at the moment, but Li Laosan reached out to stir it up and took out two scales that were larger than his palm.

"Look, look at it, these are dragon scales - they glow when it's dark!"

The scales in Li Laosan's hand fell down into the water as he shook them. They appeared translucent under the morning light, and because the sunlight refracted some different brilliance, they were very pleasing to the eye.

Everyone who saw it was also amazed.

"Are these dragon scales?" "Could they be larger fish scales?"

"Did you see the dragon?"

"These are dragon scales! I have been fishing for so many years and I have never seen any fish with such big scales!"

Li Laosan argued hard and kept shaking his scales, causing the light patterns refracted by the sun to change constantly.

"Look, how beautiful this is, it's not something that can be found in the mortal world!"

"How many scales are there?"

"There are three of them. There are many officials and gentlemen on the shore. Is anyone interested? We can't afford to keep this treasure, so we are going to sell it at a good price!"

"What's the price?" "I'll pay ten taels!" "I want it too—"

The people on the shore were also excited. Regardless of whether it was a dragon scale or not, at least it looked very special and not a simple thing. The people on the boat were all happy, but they didn't shout too much.

“Let’s take a look at the fish we caught today first!” “Yes, yes, yes, sell the fish first!”

Li Laosan and others carried out all the fish again. They knew clearly that everyone on the dock was concerned about the dragon scales, but they were not in a hurry. They were obviously very appetizing.

At this moment, more people in the whole port gathered towards the pier here. Some said they had caught a dragon, some said they picked up dragon scales, and some said it was some other treasure. Of course, the most common ones said they had dragon scales, and some said they had picked up dragon scales. Soon the news spread throughout the originally small port.

When something like this happens, anyone will join in the fun.

Yi Shuyuan was originally on the outside, but now he is relatively in the center. There are so many people crowded outside.

"Sir, this thing really does have a trace of dragon aura, but the dragon aura doesn't seem to be right, it's a bit weird, and it doesn't seem like it's a dragon scale?"

Long Hui Mian has seen too many, and even played with the scales shed by dragons. They are beautiful and beautiful, but the texture is usually very hard, and the thing in Li Laosan's hand looks somewhat crystal clear, and it seems Also on the soft side.

"Let's see and then talk."

Yi Shuyuan did not fight with others and squeezed out of the crowd with a few slight movements of his body. He was well aware of the situation at the dock from a more peripheral position.

Li Laosan's seafood sold especially fast today, and the prices were far higher than before. Everyone was looking forward to the highlight.

Although there are many people who doubt that the thing is not a dragon scale at all, it is undeniable that even if it is not a dragon scale, it is very special and should be a treasure.

There was a burst of shouting, a burst of noise, a burst of raising prices, and bursts of looting. Finally, all three dragon scales were bought at high prices, and the lowest one was sold for more than a hundred taels of silver.

Li Laosan was so happy that he had to put all the money he received in boxes. Although his son who went to sea together was not as young as Wuguan, his face was also full of joy.

Most of the crowd dispersed, but a few people such as Yi Shuyuan were still in place. Many people on the nearby fishing boats cast envious glances at Li Laosan, and the father and son on the boat had no intention of going ashore. The money was put into the cabin, and he was already busy untying the rope, preparing to go home early.

"Brother Li, did you make a fortune today?"

"Hahahaha, yes, yes!"

"When we return to the village, we have to set a table?"

"How can one table be enough? When I return to the village, I have to set up several tables. Our son's in-laws haven't found their parents yet, so now I don't have to worry about the gift money!"

Li Laosan looked very proud when he said this, and his son on the side worked much more efficiently.

"Oh, this matchmaker has to break through the threshold of your house?"

"Hahahahahahahaha, let's not say anything, change the wine in the village, be sure!"

"I'll be there for sure, and I'll have to drink some good wine this time!"

"of course--"

Li Laosan raised his voice, propped up the pier with his oar amidst the compliments of the fishermen and acquaintances, and sent the fishing boat away from the shore. They all had their own parking areas in the village, so it was a good place to sell goods.

Yi Shuyuan was walking on the dock, his speed was basically the same as that of the fishing boat. When he was walking in the same direction on the shore and off the shore, he smiled and asked the fishing boat in the water below.

"Brother, you've already made a lot of money, why don't you want to keep some for yourself?"

The sound on the shore didn't seem loud, but it was very clear. It also caused the father and son who were steering the boat to look at the shore, and then they discovered that a Confucian scholar was traveling with the boat.

The Confucian scholar was holding a folding fan and shaking it gently. He had a tall and straight posture and a leisurely gait. Although he did not look old, he had a head of half-grey hair. It should have been more conspicuous, but he had not noticed it just now.

"What are you talking about, this gentleman? These kind of treasures are not something ordinary people like us should have. We will be satisfied with just making some money!"

After saying this, the fishing boat had already left the dock, and Yi Shuyuan had no way ahead, so he stopped at the edge of the rock ridge, just looking at the departing fishing boat calmly.

Half an hour later, in a quiet fishing village, the Li family's father and son returned home. The son excitedly entered the courtyard of the home carrying a small box and started shouting before he even entered the door.

“Mother—mother—we are getting rich, getting rich!”

Although he said he was shouting, he actually lowered his voice, but the excitement couldn't be suppressed no matter what.

"How do you get rich?"

A woman came out of the kitchen and saw her excited son, who couldn't wait to move the box to the living room.

"Mom, come and see, come and see!"

The woman entered the house and saw her son opening the wooden box. It was full of white silver, some were complete ingots, and some were broken. The quantity seemed to be quite large.

"Oh, why is there so much money?"

The expression on the woman's face was very exciting. She was surprised, overwhelmed, and a little uneasy, but it was difficult to take her eyes away from the silver.

"Hey, mother, the Dragon King has rewarded me with money!"

"ah?"

The woman didn't understand, but Li Laosan walked into the yard carrying some fishing gear and a few specially left fish.

"What are you shouting for? Are you trying to attract attention? Come and help!"

"Hey!"

The son hurried out. The woman in the room looked at the box and closed the lid before following him out.

"Dad, sooner or later everyone in the village will know!" "Dad, how did you get so much money back?"

"Hey, hey, let's go in and talk about it. It's really just the Dragon King giving us food!"

The fishing gear was placed outside the house, Li Laosan said as he walked, and entered the main room with his wife and children.

"Zhi Zhi Zhi"

After a few strange screams, several mice hurriedly ran out of the house, which also startled the three of them, but then they didn't take it seriously.

"Let me tell you, my son and I got lucky this morning."

While the three of them were talking, some reptiles and flying insects that had been hiding in the house began to crawl out of the house, but the three of them didn't notice it.

It didn’t take long, and it wasn’t even noon yet. Many people in the village already knew that Li Laosan’s family had made a fortune. Neighbors and relatives came to celebrate. The Li family was very busy, and it was better to choose a day to meet them. On the same day, I immediately decided to set up several tables of wine and food for guests tonight.

In addition to the neighbors and relatives, the whole village was also invited, and there were many people helping. As it got darker, the Li family yard was bustling with people inside and outside. Those who didn't know it thought it was a happy event at home.

Yi Shuyuan had already arrived at the seaside outside the village. He stood on a higher reef and looked at the busyness and excitement of the village over there, and then looked at the direction of the sea.

The wind seemed to be a lot stronger, and the "wuwuwu" sound sounded like some kind of cry.

"Wow!"

Big waves hit the shore, stirring up a large amount of seawater, which was scattered everywhere, and also splashed around Yi Shuyuan. Hui Mian was standing on his shoulders, and the seawater splashed around them, soaking their clothes and hair.

"Sir, the tide is not right, but I can't tell what's going on. Do you see anything?"

Yi Shuyuan turned to look at the village over there and said calmly.

"There is nothing abnormal about the tide itself. What is wrong is the village, or to be precise, the scale hidden by the Li family. It seems to be attracting the tide, making the tide in this area more turbulent than in other places."

"Huh? So you are really a treasure?"

Hui Mian was very surprised and couldn't help but continue.

"Don't say that the scales are a bit weird. Even real dragon scales can't have this effect. Next time, let's try getting some scales from Jiang Lang. I don't think his scales may have this effect! "

Yi Shuyuan grinned. Hui Mian was like Jiang Lang's scales.

"I'm afraid what Li Laosan picked up is more than you think!"

As if to confirm Yi Shuyuan's words, not long after he finished speaking, there seemed to be a strange whistling sound from the other side of the sea.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu."

It was as if the howling of the sea wind before had really turned into some kind of cry, which sounded particularly terrifying.

Hui Mian's eyes suddenly widened, and the hair on his body stood up slightly, making the entire mink body look slightly enlarged.

"Sir, something bad is coming?"

Yi Shuyuan frowned and walked directly towards the village. At the same time, he opened his mouth slightly, and the dragon ball flashed at his throat.

"call"

A special breath of water came out of Yi Shuyuan's mouth, and a light mist seemed to spread around the entire fishing village, covering the entire village and nearby areas.

After a while, the tide and the strange howling sea wind faded away.

"Um?"

Hui Mian made a sound of surprise, and Yi Shuyuan, who had already walked near the village, looked at the sea and his eyes flashed slightly.

"As expected, this breath is both intentional and unintentional, giving off a bit of a wail and weirdness."

"What's the meaning?"

Yi Shuyuan glanced at Hui Mian and walked a little faster.

"It means this thing is more evil than you think!"
