Chapter 56 Official Disciple
Qiang! Clang!
The two long knives suddenly came out of their sheaths, shining brightly.
Sharp gazes locked on Zhang Yuan instantly, with a strong sense of warning.
Zhang Yuan believed that if he made any changes at this time, it would definitely attract a thunderous strike from these punishment hall disciples.
But he was fearless and stood at the stern of the boat without changing his expression.
A Xingtang disciple with a horse-like face asked in a deep voice: "Junior Brother Lu, what did you find?"
"No, it's nothing."
As a result, the guy who was responsible for checking the live water tank replied with some embarrassment: "This is Junior Brother Zhang who caught a big fish, a very big carp!"
He was a rare and strange person, but I didn't expect that he almost missed it. Something happened.
When I heard it was just carp, the tense atmosphere immediately dissipated.
The two execution hall disciples put away their Yan Ling knives calmly.
Their reaction was also obviously a bit excessive.
Zhang Yuan didn't pay attention, and asked pretending to be curious: "Brother, are you checking the White Dragon Loach?"
The horse-faced disciple nodded: "Yes, helmsman A strict order has been issued not to allow the white dragon loach to flow out of the Tianma River, so anyone who fishes in the river, whether it is an outsider or a member of the family, must be inspected!”
The matter of Bailong Loach has already spread a lot, and he is not surprised how Zhang Yuan knew about it.
"Junior brother Zhang, if you catch the white dragon loach, you must take the initiative to hand it over."
"The helmsman will give you a heavy reward!"
Zhang Yuan shook his head and replied: "I plan to seal up the boats and hang up nets during this period."
He looked at the bay behind: "With so many fishing boats, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch any small fish in the future!"
>
The horse-faced disciple touched his nose and said no more.
The two Xingtang disciples quickly searched Zhang Yuan's awning boat and naturally did not find the white dragon loach.
"Junior Brother Zhang, excuse me."
The horse-faced disciple simply gathered up the team and left.
He ran to check other fishing boats.
To be honest, Zhang Yuan didn't think such a high-profile inspection would have any effect.
We are not fools. Even if we really catch the white dragon loach, we don’t have to put it in a fishing boat before taking it away.
Seriously, such an approach can easily arouse others' resentment and even counterattack.
All kinds of disputes arise!
At the same time, Zhang Yuan does not think that the helmsman Wei Changfeng is an unintelligent person. It is estimated that this fourth-level Qi warrior has another purpose.
But these are not what he, a small preparatory disciple, should be concerned about!
Rolling the awning boat, Zhang Yuan returned to the dock.
He first parked the fishing boat, then brought a large wooden barrel over and filled it with the carps that were kept in the living water tank.
This big carp has already woken up, struggling violently and splashing countless water splashes.
But no matter how powerful it was, it was still easily suppressed by Zhang Yuan.
And when Zhang Yuan came to the fish market with a fish bucket, he unsurprisingly caused a sensation.
“What a big carp!”
“King Carp!”
“My God, this is at least thirty kilograms, right?”
< br>“I think it weighs more than thirty pounds!”
"Forty pounds!"
Many fishermen and fishmongers came around to watch the excitement, and they were all amazed.
Zhang Yuan said with a smile: "You guys, please set a price."
If it is an ordinary fish, just sell it to the dealer at the market price.
He is a disciple of the Raging Whale Gang, and has Chen Zhize as his backer.
No one would dare to cheat the fishmonger unless he had the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard.
But this carp was of the highest quality and could be called a king, so Zhang Yuan used a bidding method to sell it.
This is also completely in line with the practice of the fish market.
"Twelve taels, I will pay ten taels of silver!" "Twelve taels."
"Fifteen!"
The traders who have been in the fish market all year round are all sophisticated. Although this big carp is very rare, they can estimate the approximate weight and appraise its quality at a glance.
Of course it can be considered a quasi-profit.
After a short but fierce competition, a fishmonger finally won the carp at a high price of nineteen taels.
In fact, when he first caught this big carp, Zhang Yuan thought about sacrificing it in exchange for the essence.
However, he already owed Chen Zhize one hundred taels of silver and planned to seal the ship for a while.
It is definitely not a long-term solution to have no exit but no entrance.
So after much deliberation, I sold it.
After selling all the fish, Zhang Yuan returned to the fishing boat and sorted out all the fishing gear.
Finally cover with tarpaulin.
This put his fishing life on hold.
But when the storm over Bailong Loach subsides, he will come back to restart the fishing boat and continue this promising work.
In the next few days, Zhang Yuan still went out early and came back late every day.
He devoted all his time to martial arts training, Rock Stance Kung Fu, Shocking Wave Palm, Wave Cutting Sword, Lingbo Step...
No matter how stormy the outside world was, Zhang Yuan was always immersed in it. In martial arts.
This feeling of making progress every day and improving his strength little by little really made him addicted!
However, as time goes by, the impact caused by the white dragon loach has not weakened, but has intensified.
Every time Zhang Yuan goes home, he can feel the increasingly tense atmosphere in the county.
There were many more police officers patrolling the streets, and the number of people from all walks of life was also increasing. Members of the Tiger Gang frequently appeared in his sight.
Although the real bloody conflict has not happened yet, Zhang Yuan feels that it is about to happen.
This made him greatly alert.
This day, Zhang Yuan was practicing sword skills in the practice room, when suddenly something happened in his heart.
He turned around and saw Dong Yuanwei standing at the door looking at him, his eyes unclear.
Zhang Yuan quickly put down his weapon and saluted: "Master!"
Dong Yuanwei nodded and said, "Follow me."
Although Zhang Yuan didn't know why, he still followed the Zhantang instructor out of the practice room.
Arrived at Dragon Temple!
The most magnificent and magnificent building in the Whale Castle is this palace dedicated to the Dragon God.
Just as the common people in the county believe in the city god, people who make a living on the water generally respect the dragon god.
Everyone believes that the Dragon God will protect them from strange things, so that everything goes smoothly and smoothly.
Although the Dragon Temple in Whale Castle is not large, it is full of internal organs and full of incense.
A statue with a dragon head and human body stands on the lotus platform, wearing a high crown and dragon robe, full of majesty.
In front of the statue, Zhao Jinlan, the deputy head of the war hall, and a gray-haired old man stood impressively.
"Palace Master Zhao."
Dong Yuanwei saluted Zhao Jinlan and said, "Zhang Yuan brought it."
Zhang Yuan quickly followed and saluted: "Disciple Zhang Yuan, I have met Hall Master Zhao!"
"No courtesy."
Zhao Jinlan smiled slightly and said: "Zhang Yuan, Mr. Dong said you are very talented. He is good and hard-working, and has mastered the introductory martial arts of my Angry Whale Gang earlier than other new disciples.”
“And he is accomplished in his studies. He is a real talent.”
The charming lady paused and continued: “So after his recommendation, You are allowed to pass the gang entrance examination in advance and become an official disciple of our battle hall.”
"Congratulations!"
