Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?!-Chapter 863 - 787: Missing a Soul

Indeed, there is a "familiar ghost" sprawled on the tree.

The first time Jiang Yuan discovered that the fishing enhancement he gained from the Wilderness could be used in the real world was witnessed by Wu Yegen.

He is a very special ghost.

Originally, he had a quite happy family, but because his brother was obsessed with fishing, it not only ruined his small family but also caused his parents to die and become disabled while searching for him;

Misfortunes never come singly, not long after Wu Yegen was killed by a red-light runner, his biggest concern before dying was his disabled and traumatized senile father.

Thus, he became a ghost without resentment, watching over his brother every day to prevent him from being so immersed in fishing that he neglects his pitiful old father until he’s cold and hungry.

"Brother Wu, you wandered over here? Following your brother?" Jiang Yuan looked around and didn’t see the old man in the wheelchair, so he stepped forward and greeted, "Don’t be afraid, this tiger won’t bite you."

"Rustle, rustle, rustle!"

The wind blew the leaves gently, shaking them. Wu Yegen hidden in the canopy heard the familiar sound and peeked out from the leaves, his eyes suddenly lighting up.

"Oh my gosh, it’s you!" He just stuck his head out and saw the tiger looking up from below, scared and swiftly hid back again, "Jiang Yuan, where did you get such a big tiger, it really scares ghosts.

We’ve not seen each other for a while, I followed my brother here; are you also here for the fishing excitement?"

Chuci hurriedly dripped a few drops of potion, and indeed could see clearly again, looked around and found no one was paying attention, then asked in a low voice, "What’s the excitement? Is there a fishing event?"

He truly didn’t know, he only heard recently that many anglers gathered at Xishan. He purely wanted to show off the six big fish he caught in the name of eating.

It would be great if there was a fishing event!

Having just acquired new abilities, Chuci was eager to show off. Hearing the excitement, his eyes gleamed with excitement.

Wu Yegen boldly stuck his head out and laughed: "You both don’t know? I heard them say there’s a seasoned angler working at the meteorological station who understands weather changes very clearly.

Two hours after a summer downpour and before the water quality clears up, is the golden time for fishing.

Apparently, when there was a big storm last month, the old guy at the meteorological station knew ahead of time and came over to wait, and sure enough, he caught a big one. It’s said the largest fish he caught weighed over ten pounds!

Then his fishing group exploded, spreading word like wildfire, all wanting to get some inside information ahead of time.

The other day, they said rain was coming, so many anglers gathered here but the rain wasn’t that heavy. Still it was much better than usual skunkings.

I heard it seems today there might be a super heavy storm, anyway, everyone’s flocking here, how could my brother miss such a great opportunity? I just tagged along."

"There’s a storm today?" Chuci looked up at the clear sky, expressing doubt.

He casually took out his phone and glanced at the weather forecast, which only showed cloudy weather about half an hour later, not a drop of rain, let alone a storm.

Jiang Yuan recalled a joke about weather forecasts and couldn’t help but laugh, "After all, it’s a forecast, maybe a sudden gust of wind brings clouds and it really starts raining. As the saying goes: the sky in June is like a child’s face, changes without warning."

"It’s really a coincidence, let’s eat first." Chuci watched as more and more anglers gathered around the car, feeling utterly pleased inside, "Then let’s hope it rains hard right when we’re eating, then afterwards we’ll be able to fish for even bigger ones here!"

Wu Yegen noticed the row of trophies behind his car and curiously asked, "You caught those?"

Chuci nodded, "Of course! The bait I hooked, the line I cast, the fish I reeled in, they were caught by me!"

He intended to show off a bit, but didn’t expect the other to lean over to glance and laugh, "Sure enough, a master’s friend is also a master. Last time watching Jiang Yuan fish, I thought it was a newbie protection phase, turns out you guys are truly skilled!"

Recalling the scene of catching fish one after another, he sincerely praised, "Because of my brother, I really didn’t like fishing, but after watching Jiang Yuan fish, I quite changed, now idle I also quietly watch for skills.

Just never saw anyone catch fish like him, one after another, even while talking, it didn’t interrupt, and those fish were really big..."

Expected praise wasn’t heard, rather new intelligence was gained, Chuci looked at Jiang Yuan with a shocked face, "Is it really that post you sent last time on social media?"

"Yes, that was when I met Brother Wu at Jiangxin Park." His expression remained calm and unchanging, adding even more to his masterful demeanor.

Chuci was stunned, "This, you’re actually not addicted?"

No wonder, such a big shot!

If it were me catching fish one after another, besides necessary sleep, I’d rather camp by the water all through meals, popping up nationwide along every river where anglers gather!

Addicted?

Jiang Yuan twitched his lips, thinking that not missing out on Fishing Skills, he fished until numb at the Wilderness.

No matter how interested, when a thing is treated as work and done continuously, it gradually loses its appeal, even the strongest addiction can be cured listlessly.

Moreover, fishing there can yield surprises like Treasure Chests, way more entertaining than here.

The downgrade in experience, plus no rise in XP, no bonus rewards, naturally negates addiction. That time could be better spent making paper creations, at least upgrading the Paperman and Paper Horse Skill.

"Whether there’ll be a storm or can catch fish is uncertain, at least the farmhouse business around Xishan is truly booming."
