Chapter 419 This wave of immense wealth was finally caught.
When we arrived at the riverbank, we saw several children gathered in a small circle, whispering and discussing something.
Wenwen hurriedly called out to them, "Xiaomi, catch this."
As soon as she finished speaking, a small knife fell directly into Yao Xiaomi's hand.
"Xiaomi, here's a new knife. Okay, then you can give the old one to Cousin Jin Ning!"
Wenwen looked at Wen Chengmo and said, "Fifth brother, your group will continue in the same order, but everyone must take turns killing three fish. Follow the order. If you don't know how, learn from your cousin Jin Ning. After you learn, teach your younger siblings together. Can you do that?"
"Yes!" Wen Chengmo puffed out his chest and answered firmly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a basket of fish the size of a palm appeared in front of him.
Wen Chengmo called to his friends, and together they dragged the fish basket, squatted by the river, and began to process it.
The kids have all started, so the boys and girls can't fall behind!
To ensure fairness, the older cousins of the Ren family also received a small knife.
To clarify, with the help of the Qi-Inducing Pill and the Spirit-Gathering Array, Ren's two uncles and three cousins have all broken through to the second level of Qi Refining, Ren Jinning is at the first level of Qi Refining, and the others have not yet introduced Qi into their bodies.
"Randan, Ranman, cousins, take this knife. You'll need it for work later. Use it often when you have free time, hehehe!"
Wenwen was a little tired. Her teacher wouldn't let her remind him or say it outright, so she could only say to use it more often, and that was all she could say.
However, among this group of young men and women, there were quite a few intelligent ones, especially since Wenwen had already mentioned the key phrase "use it more" twice. Therefore, those with ulterior motives began to exchange glances with each other in private.
"Big brother, big sister, it's up to you whether to divide the work or go it alone with these baskets of fish. Anyway, the Master said we're all eating fish tonight, hehehe!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several baskets of large fish were placed in front of a group of young men and women.
Wenwen didn't care what kind of group they were in. She picked up a slightly larger fish, found a spot by the river, squatted down, and began to gut the fish.
Unexpectedly, just as they cut open the fish's belly, a voice rang out: "Little sister, your second brother is here to help you out, hehehe!"
Wen Chengbin, shameless as ever, squatted down, grabbed the fish, and began to gut it, remove the gills, and tear off the black membrane, cleaning it thoroughly inside and out. Holding up the cleaned fish, he said, "Little sister, look, how did you do? Isn't it pretty?"
"Pretty!"
Wenwen gave a forced smile, "Second brother, no matter how beautifully this fish is prepared, it'll just turn into a mushy mess once it's in your stomach, and then, well, you know."
"I understand what my sister is saying."
Wen Chengbin took another step closer and whispered, "Little sister, I don't quite understand what you mean by 'use the knife more often.' Is there something more to it? Why don't you demonstrate for your second brother?"
Wenwen took a fish, exchanged a glance with Wen Chengbin, blinked, and then, using the fish as cover, she secretly used a knife to cut her finger underwater. Blood quickly oozed from her fingertip.
Suddenly, a shadow darted out from the knife, swallowing up the bloodstains that hadn't even had time to spread before it sped back to the knife.
This scene beneath the water's surface naturally couldn't escape the notice of the Wen family members, who had already cultivated divine consciousness.
Whether it was Ye Jingchuan and Wen Chengjian killing fish by the river, or Wen Yuanqian and his group hiding not far from the river, anyone with the cultivation level of Qi Refining Level 4 and the ability to distinguish their divine sense could see everything clearly.
At this moment, Wenwen was very excited.
Good heavens! She really caught this windfall!
What merits and abilities does he possess? With such an overwhelming aura and incredible cheat code, it's simply too amazing!
She really wanted to yell a couple of times!
Unfortunately, the teacher forbade her to make a fuss.
The teacher, who was being complained about, was hiding near the stream.
"Brother-in-law, is it really necessary to make this cut underwater?" Wen Qikang asked.
"Or you could try other methods. If that doesn't work, you can always go back underwater. Anyway, one more cut won't hurt much," Master Zhou said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll try."
After saying that, Wen Qikang took out a knife and slashed his finger. A drop of blood flowed out and dripped onto the grass. The blood drop was about to sink into the ground, but the knife did not move.
"Pfft—" Master Zhou couldn't help but chuckle.
Just then, Yao Changhao grabbed Zhou Fuzi's hand, pried open his fingers to examine them closely, and said, "You little rascal, Zhou Laosi, you tried it, why didn't you say so? You even dared to tease us, you're asking for a beating, humph!"
It turned out that after Wenwen and the others left, the Master made a cut on his finger, but unfortunately he didn't see any shadow. So he studied the relevant passages in the book for a while before going to find Wen Yuanqian and the others.
Then, everyone witnessed what had just happened.
"Kang Yan, why can we only operate underwater?" Wen Yuanqian asked.
“Father, I’ve just started researching this, and there are some things that are too profound for me to fully understand.”
Master Zhou said, "However, I think this is because the spirit of the artifact is too weak. Blood in the air has gravity, so the spirit of the artifact cannot capture it, or rather, it is not conducive to its capture. But water has buoyancy, so it can track it down."
"Furthermore, I believe this is closely related to one's personal cultivation level. As you all saw, the spirit of the artifact detected Wen'er's blood droplet before it even left her finger. What does that mean?"
"What does that mean?" Wen Qikang asked impatiently.
"This shows that the spirit of the artifact also admires the strong. It becomes stronger when it encounters a strong opponent and weaker when it encounters a weak one. It's purely a matter of choosing its opponent based on who it's dealing with!" Master Zhou said helplessly.
"Oh, is that so? How come this thing is so intelligent?" Yao Changhao exclaimed in surprise.
"Generally speaking, weapon spirits take the form of beasts, humans, or exist only as the spiritual power of a soul. From that fleeting shadow just now, we don't know exactly where the weapon spirit is hiding in the knife. Let's observe it further."
Just then, Ren Jinning suddenly said, "Fifth Cousin, I... I want to stop for a moment. I want to meditate and cultivate now."
"Huh? Ah, Cousin Jin Ning, put down what you're doing."
Wen Chengmo understood instantly. He urged Ren Jinning, "You just sit down and meditate. Fifth Cousin will watch over you. Quick, sit cross-legged."
"Cousin Jin Ning, you should go and cultivate. We can handle these fish, so don't worry."
The other friends also chimed in.
So, Ren Jinning chose a stable spot and sat down cross-legged.
Everyone could see and hear what the children were making.
No adults or elders interrupted the children's mutual help; everyone watched Wen Chengmo make the arrangements.
The little guy was quite capable, arranging everything in a very orderly manner.
He could keep up with his work without interrupting his attention, and at the same time keep an eye on Ren Jinning's movements.
Soon, Wenwen sensed the fluctuations of spiritual energy by the river.
Wow, when luck comes, you can't stop it.
In the time it takes to kill a few fish, with the help of the artifact spirit, Ren Jinning quickly broke through to the second level of Qi Refining.
That speed and that luck are absolutely astounding!
