MTL - It’s Obviously a Life Skill, But You Developed It Into a Magical Skill-Chapter 178v100 Zhou An took the initiative

Zhou An was a little doubtful whether he heard it wrong.

Just now, it seemed that Master Xi Yuan asked himself to go fishing?

  And it seems that they also said that they should go fishing while talking about things.

He also said the words "won't it be great".

Seeing Shi Xiyuan marveling at the situation around the pool and walking back and forth, Zhou An finally determined that Shi Xiyuan, in addition to being the apprentice of the national master, also had a very special identity.

 —Fisherman!

That's right, the way Shi Xiyuan looks now, he looks exactly like a fisherman.

Thinking of this, Zhou An couldn't help but think of the legend about the fishing guy in his previous life.

 In legend, there is a group of people who are keen on fishing and never tire of it.

 Some people have even evolved because of this and have become a being who throws a pole when there is water.

They are addicted to fishing day and night, as if everything in their eyes is only water and fish, and other than that, everything is empty.

And in this industry, there is also a very special group, which can be simply said in two words - the Air Force.

Most fishermen cannot catch fish.

 But they can catch everything except fish.

What’s more, you can even catch corpses.

Moreover, apart from not being able to catch fish, this group of fishermen also knows a lot about astronomy and geography.

 As long as there is something you don’t understand, go to a fishing bar and ask. The fishing guy can explain it to you from beginning to end.

 Even if it is a new species, the fisherman can explain it clearly.

Zhou An used to be a frequent visitor to the fishing bar. He doesn’t like fishing, but he likes to stay in the fishing bar.

 Because he felt that the old fishing guy was a nice person and spoke nicely.

So seeing his teacher Xi Yuan's current appearance, Zhou An felt as if he had gone back to fishing in a dream.

Ever since, Zhou An asked a question subconsciously.

“Master, you must have never caught a fish before, right?”

 This is a completely subconscious question.

But what Zhou An didn't expect was that after Shi Xiyuan heard this, his expression suddenly changed.

 Obviously, Zhou An understood it without even having to speak to Shi Xiyuan.

 The fishing guy in front of me has never caught a fish before.

“I will definitely catch it this time!” Shi Xiyuan gritted his teeth as if gritting his teeth.

“Mr. Zhou, please wait here for me. I’ll buy some fish and we’ll talk while fishing!”

After finishing his words, before Zhou An could say anything, Shi Xiyuan disappeared like the wind.

 In the courtyard, only Zhou An and the woman in black were left looking at each other.

 “Forget it, wait.” Zhou An said helplessly.

The woman in black looked confused, obviously not understanding what was going on with Shi Xiyuan.

 In her limited perception, she had no idea what Shi Xiyuan’s character meant.

 Because in her opinion, there is no need to pay attention to a pool of water, just the chair.

But Zhou An didn't say anything, and the woman in black waited patiently.

 Fortunately, Master Xiyuan's speed was not slow, and he came back with a large basket of fish in only half a stick of incense.

 At the same time, three fishing rods appeared in his hand.

 “Come on, take one each!”

Shi Xi Yuan seemed to want to prove himself, even the woman in black was given a fishing rod.

The woman in black looked at the fishing rod in her hand, her face full of confusion.

 Zhou An fell into deep thought: "What a pole!"

 He doesn’t know how to fish, but he has the skill of body-casting, and he is already ahead of most people in forging.

Zhou An could tell at a glance that these three fishing rods were not ordinary goods. Even using such materials and forging techniques to forge fishing rods seemed a bit luxurious to Zhou An.

"That's right!" Master Xi Yuan didn't think it was extravagant at all, and said proudly: "I begged the craftsmen in the capital for a long time to make these fishing rods for me. When they made them, they all had expressions on their faces. It’s such bad luck, I don’t understand, why can’t I use a fishing rod?”

 Zhou An's mouth twitched slightly. Obviously, now is not the time to argue about this.

 “Come on, come on, Mr. Zhou, I’m not polite!” Master Xiyuan happily put all the fish into the pond.

Not to mention, the fish picked by Master Xi Yuan are all huge.

 After doing all this, Master Xiyuan threw the pole directly into the water.

Zhou An felt that at this time, he had become interested.

 Catch a catch!

Thinking of this, Zhou An directly threw out the fishing rod.

The woman in black also followed Zhou An's example and threw her pole into the water.

 Soon, the three of them each held a fishing rod, looking very harmonious.

"Tell me about it." Zhou An looked at the fish swimming in the pool and knew that it would be impossible to take the bait for a while, so he started to ask about serious matters.

 Master Xi Yuan is an old fisherman. Although he has never caught fish, he is still very experienced.

 There is a saying that if you have never eaten pork, you have never seen a pig running.

Master Xi Yuan also knows that this fish must be caught slowly.

Thinking of this, Shi Xiyuan was about to get down to business.

 But at this moment, a handful of water splashed up from the pool.

 In the surprised eyes of Zhou An and Shi Xi Yuan, the woman in black’s fishing rod moved!

 Because of the pool, the water inside is very clear, and you can see the fish inside at a glance, and they have already bitten the hook.

In the sight of Zhou An and the two men, the woman in black pulled the pole hard, and a plump grass carp was pulled up by the woman in black.

                               ?)

  “!”

 The first question mark was raised by Zhou An. He didn't expect the woman in black to catch the fish so quickly.

 The second exclamation point expresses Shi Xiyuan's mood at this time.

 As a fisherman, even a famous fisherman, Shi Xiyuan feels that he has seen all kinds of wind and waves.

 But he really didn't expect that someone would successfully catch a fish after casting the pole for less than half a stick of incense.

Shi Xiyuan felt that his self-esteem had been severely hit.

 He was in pain.

“Ahem, Sir, this is normal. It’s a novice’s protection period.” Zhou An also noticed it, so he reminded him.

 The so-called novice protection period does exist in fishing.

Those newbies are outrageous.

 Some people can even catch fish by holding a branch and tying a fishing line on it.

Shi Xiyuan doesn’t know what the novice protection period is, and he is very sad now.

 Because he felt that his dignity had been crushed alive.

Of course, the sadness doesn’t end there.

 Because of the next scene, Shi Xiyuan collapsed.

 I saw the woman in black throwing the pole again after taking down the fish.

 It didn’t take long before another fish was caught.

The woman in black still looks the same, with a blank face.

  She was a little confused. What was so fun about this? It wasn’t as fun as a chair.

The fish insisted on biting her hook, which made her feel embarrassed.

Shi Xiyuan looked at the woman in black's confusion, especially the luster reflected by the fish in the sun. His confusion was no less than that of the woman in black.

 Not just confused, but more of a helpless feeling.

That’s right, from this moment on, the famous master Xi Yuan, a disciple of the majestic national master, felt a deep sense of confusion.

It’s so bullying!

This is too bullying!

“Isn’t this your first time fishing?” Shi Xiyuan asked through gritted teeth.

 He wanted a definite answer.

 But he was disappointed.

 Because the woman in black answered him with a blank look in her eyes again.

This look is already very clear.

That means the woman in black is indeed fishing for the first time.

 Shi Xiyuan collapsed.

Zhou An could even feel that Shi Xiyuan seemed to have aged a lot in an instant.

Just when Zhou An was about to say a few words of comfort, he didn't expect that Shi Xiyuan would recover quickly.

 In front of Zhou An, Shi Xiyuan became confident again.

 “I will definitely catch fish!” Shi Xiyuan looked like he was working hard.

 At this moment, the woman in black moved her fishing rod again.

 Another fish was caught by the woman in black.

 Zhou An: “…”

Teacher Xi Yuan: “…”

 “The novice protection period is so scary.”

Zhou An is lamenting that the novice protection period has arrived.

 On the other side, the confidence that Master Xi Yuan had just regained collapsed again in an instant.

Shi Xiyuan silently threw the fishing rod aside, and then looked at the women in black one after another, his whole person in a state of numbness.

 I’ve seen a lot of fish caught, but I’ve never seen one with such speed.

 The time for burning an incense stick is very short, but for Master Xiyuan, it is ridiculously long.

 After all the fish were caught, Shi Xiyuan looked at Zhou An with numb eyes.

 “I’ve finished fishing...” Shi Xiyuan said in a very depressed tone.

Zhou An said with a smile: "Master, don't be too uncomfortable, this fish will always be caught."

 He didn't know how to comfort Shi Xiyuan, but he felt that he was very comfortable.

Especially when I saw the woman in black catching a fish in front of the air force, I felt more excited than catching it myself.

The only regret is that he didn't catch it and didn't trigger his life skills.

 But it doesn’t matter, he is not Xi Yuan’s teacher.

If you want skills, you can always find time to go fishing for a day.

 There is no rush now.

 "Haha..." Shi Xiyuan sneered.

Zhou An doesn't mind either, after all, he is sad.

After putting the fish aside, he asked: "Master, you see that you have caught this fish and that you have had enough fun. Do you think we can start talking about business now?"

 It's enjoyable, it's really enjoyable, although only Zhou An and the woman in black are enjoying it.

 The corners of Shi Xiyuan's mouth twitched slightly.

 Happy as a hammer!

 He felt like he had received 10,000 points of critical damage!

Of course, when it comes to business matters, Master Xiyuan has no ink.

“It’s like this, Mr. Zhou, in addition to the indulgence you provoked before, you also have a wild sect.” Master Xi Yuan said slowly.

 Zhou An nodded, indicating that it was indeed the case.

Last time, he killed not only Zong Xing but also the Ye Dao Sect at Fuhu Villa.

  After all, it is a hidden trouble. Only by eliminating the trouble can you improve your liver proficiency.

Zhou An has already guessed that Shi Xiyuan's trip should be related to Ye Dao Sect.

As expected, after Shi Xiyuan finished speaking these words, he spoke again.

"Master Zhou, neither the Wild Dao Sect nor Zong Xing are so easy to deal with. The reason why I came here is to remind you that you must be careful, especially the Wild Dao Sect, which will be punished by the emperor."

 After saying that, Shi Xiyuan picked up the fishing rod with doubts on his face.

 Why can’t he catch fish even though they are all fishing rods?

 Zhou An did not go to supervise Xi Yuan and fell into deep thought.

 Actually, Shi Xiyuan made it very clear just now, and he came here specifically to remind him to be careful of the wild gate.

Whether it was in Anding County or today's Fenglin Prefecture, Zhou An actually didn't offend many people.

 But those who are offended are all difficult characters.

 For example, Zongxing, such as Ye Daomen.

 These two forces can still survive in the cracks between various countries. Each force has something to offer.

 Zhou An was also very aware of Shi Xiyuan's reminder.

“Master, don’t worry, I will be careful.” Zhou An said.

Zhou An has actually been prepared for these crazy things.

 After all, considering Zhou An's temper, it would be best not to mess with him.

 But if he insists on messing with me, then I’m sorry, I’ll kill them all.

 What I need is an absolutely quiet and stable environment to improve my proficiency.

 Once it affects your liver proficiency, you will become your enemy.

“It’s good that Mr. Zhou understands. Also, if you encounter something that really cannot be solved, you can talk to the Supervision Department. If nothing else, the Supervision Department will never stand idly by.” Shi Xiyuan said.

Zhou An nodded and said that he would definitely do it.

At this point, the matter of studying with Xi Yuan is considered to have come to an end.

He had no intention of staying, especially after seeing the fish next to Zhou An and the woman in black. Only he knew the sadness in his heart.

 Staying here is just asking for trouble for yourself.

Thinking of this, Shi Xiyuan quickly left, far away from this sad place.

 Watching Shi Xiyuan leave, Zhou An also sighed.

He knew that his trip was a heavy blow to Shi Xiyuan. After all, it was good that Shi Xiyuan didn't vomit blood after returning home with a full load in front of the Air Force guy.

After Shi Xiyuan left, Zhou An touched the head of the woman in black, looked at the pile of fish on the ground, and said with a smile: "I want to eat fish tonight."

The woman in black looked confused and didn't understand what Zhou An meant.

Shi Xiyuan told Zhou An the news that Ye Daomen was likely to retaliate, and also brought a lot of fish to Zhou An.

 Zhou An made a special fish dinner tonight, and had a hearty meal with the woman in black.

 After eating, Zhou An had no intention of continuing his liver proficiency.

 In fact, according to his opinion, now he should learn about the Holy Spirit Demon Body and fortune-telling, and by the way, he should teach the woman in black how to speak and read.

 But after Shi Xiyuan's visit today, Zhou An's mind changed.

 He no longer thinks about liver proficiency, but about wild affairs and sexual indulgence.

Zhou An has always believed that he is not a passive person, on the contrary, he is a proactive person.

 No matter when or where he is, he will never be passive. Even when he is doing indescribable things, he does not want the other person to be on top of him.

 So, Zhou An decided to take action first.

 As for how to take action, it is very simple.

 No, now there is a fortune-telling skill.

Although this skill can’t even be used by myself, that’s because I’m too strong.

 Some people from Ye Dao Sect are not so strong. So Zhou An decided to try fortune telling to see if he could find anything useful.

By this time, the sky was starting to get dark.

The woman in black swayed from side to side on the chair next to her, not feeling tired at all.

 Zhou An raised his right hand and circulated the Qi in his body.

This time, he was not counting himself, but directly counting Ye Daomen.

 The calculation is also very simple, just look at the traces of Ye Daomen.

This algorithm may be very difficult for general divination methods.

 But Zhou An's fortune telling was not difficult.

 The reason is simple, it was brought about by golden fingers.

 No matter which skill it is, it is like a bug, and there is no logic at all.

For example, pot suppression method, Holy Spirit Demonic Body, or other skills.

I've already cheated, and I'm still talking about hammer logic?

 Golden gossip kept floating in front of Zhou An's eyes.

 As Zhou An circulates the Qi in his body, the Golden Bagua begins to change positions continuously.

In front of my eyes, a golden connection suddenly appeared.

 Only Zhou An can see this connection, because it is a fortune-telling skill used by Zhou An.

Zhou An also knew what this connection represented.

Just now, he tried to calculate the positions of Yedaomen and Zongxing.

 The only one who guides him now is Ye Daomen.

 Although the fact that fortune telling is only at the third level does not mean that there is no manipulation, what has been found out is what Zhou An currently needs.

 Because Zhou An calculated it based on his relationship with Ye Daomen.

 In other words, this wild Taoist sect will definitely find trouble for itself, but it was discovered in advance by myself using fortune telling.

 This thread represents that after getting rid of this disaster, nothing will happen in the short term.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk, sure enough, I have developed the fortune-telling skill correctly.” Zhou An thought to himself.

 He now has to attack and attack, defend and defend, recover and recover, and has various skills.

 Now, add the skill of fortune telling.

 Zhou An feels that now he has the ability to change from passive to active.

 “When I take the initiative, can you still play?”

“Since everything has been found out, let me play with you.” Zhou An took out the cold marrow knife.

“Let me see how you react after seeing me. It’s really wonderful.”

Thinking of this, Zhou An did not stop. When the food was digested, he took the woman in black and chased towards the place where the golden light emerged.

 At this time, in a deep mountain far away from Fenglin State.

At this moment, although the moon and stars are already dimming, there are still many people rushing towards this deep mountain.

 If you look carefully, you will find that these people are not ordinary people.

Everyone is dressed differently, but one very conspicuous thing is that these people all move very quickly.

Ordinary people cannot keep up with the pace of these people even if they try their best to run.

From all sides of this deep mountain, all kinds of people are gathering silently.

Gu Chuping is one of them.

In the world of martial arts, Gu Chuping's reputation is not well known, and not many people know about him.

 Even those who are familiar with him only know that he is an ordinary Taoist priest.

 The profession of a Taoist priest is actually very complex.

 Taomen is a large collective, with many Taoist temples of different sizes mixed in, and Gu Chuping is the master of one of the small Taoist temples.

 On the surface, he is unremarkable.

 But in fact, only he knows that he has another identity, that is, a member of the Ye Dao Sect.

Many years ago, Gu Chuping was also a practitioner of wild Taoism, and he even arrogantly believed that his wild Taoism could even outlaw orthodox Taoism.

 In fact, this is what many people who practiced wild Taoism thought at the beginning.

 Because at that time, Taoism did not appear in public very often.

 But later, they discovered that they had thought wrong.

When Daomen completely decided to put aside their relationship, they realized what kind of behemoth the so-called Daomen was.

 Those who practice wild Taoism will never forget how the Taoist sect was liquidated.

 It would be okay if they were those who did not have any harmful intentions. Those who did have basically all been eradicated, and only some of them were able to survive.

That kind of terrifying strength and foundation made Gu Chuping know that wild Taoist methods are always wild and it is impossible to shake the Taoist sect even a bit.

 But Gu Chuping was not convinced, and many people were as unconvinced as Gu Chuping.

 Because they feel that although we are under the guise of a Taoist sect, we are all exploring our own cultivation methods, and we are just borrowing the name of a Taoist sect.

 Why do you do this to us?

 So, Ye Daomen appeared.

Gu Chuping was reluctant at first, because when he was first liquidated, he actually did a lot of evil things, and even some harmful things, but he was lucky enough to avoid them.

He didn't even dare to come out, he only dared to stay in his shabby little Taoist temple.

 However, after Ye Dao Men's continuous persuasion, Gu Chuping was moved, so he joined Ye Dao Men.

 It’s not just him, there are many people like this.

Today, he received a mission to deal with a person.

 To be honest, he has taken on a lot of tasks like this.

Ye Daomen has never been a good bird, and what he values ​​​​is that he must retaliate.

Gu Chuping didn’t take it seriously.

 If you have a task, just do it.

 But he never expected that this time he would secretly activate Ye Daomen's extremely secret channels in Maplewood State and send them all in.

You must know that this channel was hidden by Ye Daomen at great cost, but now it is being used.

Gu Chuping knew clearly that the occurrence of this situation only represented one possibility.

—The enemy is very strong and it is necessary to expose this channel.

 Other than that, he couldn't think of a second possibility.

“I don’t know what the enemy is.” Gu Chuping murmured in his heart as he hurried on.

While he was muttering for a while, many people from the Ye Dao Sect passed by him.

 No one said hello, not even eye contact.

This is normal. Only those with good character can enter Ye Dao Sect.

Gu Chuping was not surprised and continued on his way silently.

 At this moment, suddenly, two people passed by.

This was normal at first, and Gu Chuping didn't even take it seriously.

 But what he didn't expect was that the two people stopped.

“Brother Taoist, it’s quite boring to see you traveling alone. How about we go together?”

 Following this was a male voice.

Gu Chuping was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and looked towards the source of the sound.

 He saw a man and a woman standing in front of him.

 The man was very handsome, and there was a faint evil aura surrounding him. It was obvious that there was a lot of blood on his hands.

The woman was dressed in black and was holding the man's hand tightly, with a blank look on her face.

The appearance of these two people in such a dark night and deep mountains made Gu Chuping instantly nervous and vigilant.

 It’s impossible not to be vigilant.

 There is no good person who joins Ye Dao Sect.

Gu Chuping is not a good person either, so he is even more vigilant.

 “Who are you and what do you mean?” he asked.

Zhou An smiled and said: "Brother Dao, you don't have to be like this. We haven't joined Ye Daomen for a long time. We just want to be with Brother Dao."

 Gu Chuping was not fooled by this sentence, and continued to say cautiously: "We are all walking on the same road, why should we go together?"

Zhou An continued to smile: "Brother Dao, if you see so many people coming here, there must be something important. At that time, one person will inevitably be unable to support himself. If we need help, we can help each other."

When Gu Chuping heard this, he understood.

 This should be for partnership.

Thinking about this, Gu Chuping also felt that the other party was right to say this.

 Because if it is an important task, someone needs to be with you.

 Let's form a team now. It's not a very strong team, but at least we can have a helper.

Of course, in Gu Chuping's view, this kind of team formation is only in name only.

 After all, if the opponent's strength is too low, you can give up at any time.

 It’s not a big deal to have a companion for a while.

Thinking of this, Gu Chuping nodded and agreed.

"You are right. After all, no one knows what the task is. It is much better to work as a partnership. But I made it clear in advance that if we don't want to work together, we will break up early." Gu Chuping said.

Hearing this, Zhou An touched his chin: "It turns out that no one knows what the mission is..."

 Gu Chuping was slightly startled: "You don't know yet? We were all temporarily formed. We only know that we are dealing with an insidious villain. No, how come you don't know?"

 He realized something was wrong, because the other party could not know anything.

Zhou An looked at it and found that they were already lagging behind due to the conversation, and no new people were coming from behind.

 At this time, only Zhou An, the woman in black, and Gu Chuping were left in front of them.

Zhou An pulled out the cold marrow knife and slashed it out: "I should be that insidious villain."

As soon as the words fell, the sword flashed.

Gu Chuping didn't even have time to react, and turned into ashes.

   Not even the need to destroy the corpses and eliminate traces.

 “Let’s go.” Zhou An led the woman in black and continued walking towards the mountains with an expressionless face.

 In fact, Zhou An met many people from the Ye Dao Sect along the way.

 He knew that there were a lot of people coming this time, and they were all here to deal with him.

Zhou An is not a reckless man. On the contrary, he is very cautious at certain times, such as now.

 He is indeed here to kill danger, but that does not mean he is brainless.

 He would not just come over and start killing, because doing so would easily alert the enemy.

 So Zhou An decided to get some information first, so he found Gu Chuping.

As for why Gu Chuping was found, who made Gu Chuping the slowest?

 Slow means there are few people behind.

 So Zhou An ran over and asked.

 The result is that most people don’t know about this mission, they only know that they will deal with one person.

 In this case, Zhou An has no need to keep Gu Chuping.

"However, his situation gave me a good idea. I can sneak in first." Zhou An thought in his mind as he hurried on his way.

Since everyone didn’t know each other and didn’t know the specific tasks, they didn’t even say hello.

So if you don't get involved in this situation, Zhou An feels like you've wasted a great opportunity.

 After sneaking in, then look at the situation. If the environment is good, then no one will be left, and they will all be destroyed!

 Zhou An licked his lips, feeling that the situation was getting more and more exciting.

This mountain is very deep and rarely visited because of the night.

Zhou An and the woman in black drove all the way and soon reached the top of the mountain.

At this time, a large number of people were gathering on the platform at the top of the mountain.

 Zhou An and the woman in black came from behind and stood in a circle outside.

Zhou An made a rough estimate, there are probably hundreds of them.

“I can be silent, but with so many people gathered, it seems that Ye Dao Sect hates me very much.” Zhou An thought to himself.

In front, there are hundreds of people in Wuyangyang, everyone is wearing different clothes, but without exception, they are all from Ye Dao Sect.

 After Zhou An and the woman in black arrived, no one continued to come in.

Although Zhou An is far away, with his strength, he can naturally see clearly.

At the front of the crowd, there was an old man in his seventies sitting cross-legged on a boulder.

 No one said anything, and all looked at the old man's position.

The old man was wearing a Taoist robe with many traces of sewing on it, making it look extremely shabby.

 But the old man's appearance gave people a chill.

 At the old man's right eye, there is a very deep black hole, and the eyeball has disappeared without a trace.

Especially the old man, there is a cold aura, which makes people feel cold all over when they get close to him.

As if aware of everyone's gaze, the one-eyed old man finally opened his intact left eye and looked around with an indifferent gaze.

 No one looked at the old man, and everyone who was caught by the old man looked away.

 At this time, the old man recovered from his cross-sitting posture and stood up slowly.

 A sound like a broken gong came from the old man's mouth.

 “Everyone is here?”

 Still no one answered.

The old man didn't seem to care and continued: "In that case, let's get started. The target of this mission is Zhou An in Maplewood Prefecture."

 There is still silence around.

The old man seemed to have been accustomed to this kind of silence for a long time, and said slowly: "As far as I know, although Zhou An has first-class strength, he can kill the innate. One of the innate masters of our Ye Dao Sect died because of this."

 After these words were spoken, the people present finally made some movement.

 Everyone had a hint of surprise on their faces.

 The people at the front couldn't help but speak.

"Master Dao, our group of people can barely deal with a first-class master. How can we deal with the Xiantian realm? Moreover, I have heard of Zhou An's reputation. He is an official in Maplewood State. Zhou An is not the only one in Maplewood State." Masters, there are also Zhenguisi and Yamen..."

His words are full of disbelief.

 In fact, not only these people, but most of the people present thought so.

 Zhou An thought the same way.

He stood outside and could see clearly.

This group of people is not very strong, at least Zhou An doesn't feel the pressure.

 Just these rotten sweet potatoes and rotten eggs are really not enough.

 It's just a matter of one or two swords, if it's more, it's rude.

 As someone started to speak, the discussion began.

They felt that the words of the one-eyed old man were very unrealistic to this group of wild people.

The one-eyed old man felt that the discussion was gradually increasing and sneered: "Who asked you to confront me head-on? Of course I have a plan. Have you ever heard of nightmares?" (End of Chapter)
