NOVEL WEB Chapter 20 Status
The horned turtle is very lazy.
It just lay there, waiting for the river shrimp to come.
Zhou Shan quietly approached Niujiao Turtle, but the latter didn't notice at all.
Soon, Zhou Shan was less than two meters away from the turtle. He aimed the net at the turtle under his hood. With the blessing of Qi and blood, the net quickly split the water waves without giving the turtle any time to react. It went straight into the net.
Then, he turned the net over.
This horned turtle weighs three kilograms and struggled in the net with great strength.
Whether it is treasure fish, treasure turtles, treasure shrimps, etc., they all have something unique.
For example, the red-backed saury is shaped like the tip of a knife and can easily cut open the fishing net. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to catch the red-backed saury with a fishing net. The horned softshell turtle is not only a pair of small horns, but also has great strength.
This is where the name of the horned turtle comes from.
The power of a three-pound softshell turtle when struggling in the net can be compared to a large fish weighing several dozen kilograms.
But this dip net was bought by Zhou Shan specifically to catch treasure fish. It was much stronger than ordinary dip nets. No matter how hard the horned turtle struggled, it was to no avail and there was no possibility of escaping.
"Fish Dash!"
Zhou Shan used a move from the Swimming Fish Body Technique and quickly dived upwards.
The swimming fish sprint can explode the whole body's strength in an instant, increasing the speed to the extreme.
Crash--
In one breath, Zhou Shan jumped out of the water and rushed out of the water.
"Let's see where you run away now!"
After a while, Zhou Shan returned to the awning boat and tied up the horned turtle.
A three-pound turtle can be sold for forty or fifty taels of silver at the fish market, but he has no intention of selling it.

Zhou Shan glanced at the properties panel.
The Turtle Breathing Technique has reached the third level, and the cultivation progress is '8%'.
In another month at most, he will reach perfection.
At that time, the cultivation of the fourth level of Turtle Breathing Technique will require the use of the horned turtle's back armor.
There are six levels of Turtle Breath Kung Fu. The first three levels are mainly about strengthening Qi and blood, so the physical attributes have been improved the most. At this time, it is close to thirty. The strength, defense and agility attributes have been improved less, but by the fourth and third levels The sixth level is to build up strength and grind skin. By then, strength and defense will be greatly improved.
Now that you have caught the horned turtle, raise it first to avoid running out of stock when needed.
After tying up the horned turtle, Zhou Shan released his mental power and continued to search for the fish nest under the water.
Even if he can't find treasure fish, he can still catch some 'big stuff'.
Now that he has shown his muscles and gained a reputation, with his strength, he can earn a living of dozens of taels a month, so there is no need to be too low-key, so when he is not fishing for small fish and shrimps, he is just staring at the water. 'Big stuff'.
Time passes minute by minute.
The sun sets in the west, and the rays of rays fall gently, covering the river with a layer of golden gauze.
"It's time to go back!"
Zhou Shan glanced at the sky, jumped out of the water, returned to the awning boat, and then controlled the twin oars to return to the fishing pier.
…
…
"Brother Shan, please take good care of me in the future."
"They are all big guys. Brother Shan is very capable. Not only is he strong, but his fishing skills are even better. I'm afraid he's not much different from the Fisher King of Fisher King Village."
"With Brother Shan's ability, he can even open a fish stall by himself."
"Look, it looks like a horned turtle!"
"Ox-horned turtle, this is one of the treasured turtles. Some time ago, a warrior purchased it and offered it for fifteen taels of silver per catty."
"..."
Zhou Shan's fishing boat docked at the port. Whether it was the guys who came to help with chores or other fishermen, they all shouted "Brother". Although they were all younger than Zhou Shan, they all had a very low profile. .
"It seems that my lesson about scoundrel Li Tieniu has spread in the fish market."
Seeing the respect shown by everyone towards him, Zhou Shan quickly understood.
After showing his strength, his status was promoted from a low-level fisherman to a "brother". If he could become a warrior, then in the eyes of the low-level fishermen, he would be a warrior "master".
"Only by becoming a martial artist can you have a place in the fishing gang."
Facing the compliments from everyone, Zhou Shan did not flinch.
He knew in his heart that as a quasi-martial artist, he could only show off his power in front of these low-level fishermen, and show off that in the eyes of some big forces, he was still considered inferior.
If you want to be taken seriously by the fishing gang, you can only become a martial artist.
Therefore, one's own strength is fundamental.
As long as you are strong and have a strong fist, fame, status, and resources will naturally follow.
After withdrawing his thoughts, Zhou Shan responded to the fishermen who greeted him one by one.
When others greeted him with a smile, he didn't need to put on any airs, but if they were enemies, it would be different.
When friends come, they will be entertained with good wine. If the jackal comes, he will be greeted with shotguns.
"A total of thirteen hundred coins!"
When they arrived at Yeji Fish Shop, they quickly weighed the fish and the manager calculated the price of the catch.
"Zhou Shan, are you going to sell your ox-horned turtle?"
The manager of Yeji Fish Shop saw the ox-horned turtle hanging on Zhou Shan's waist and asked.
"Not for the time being, I plan to take it back and raise it, and eat it to replenish myself when it is fat."
Zhou Shan shook his head.
"Not for sale?"
The manager frowned and said to himself that it was a pity.
If Zhou Shan was an ordinary fisherman, he would have to force the sale, but this ordinary fisherman practiced martial arts and made a name for himself. If he wanted to use force, he had to consider whether it was worth it.
If he was just lucky and caught an ox-horned turtle occasionally, it was not worth using force.
"Brother Shan, you're back."
"Brother Shan, when you went out fishing, something big happened. Li Tieniu killed Wang Po."
"As for Wang Po, she deserved to die."
"Li Tieniu killed Wang Po, but for some reason he didn't run away. The constables from the yamen came and took him away. He was put in jail. Because of the irrefutable evidence, he was sentenced to death by the county magistrate."
"..."
Seeing Zhou Shan coming back, several peers took the initiative to greet Zhou Shan, and then reported what happened today, as if they regarded Zhou Shan as a leader.
This is the difference in status brought by strength.
With Zhou Shan's current reputation, he can gather thirty or fifty fishermen in Guyu Street with a shout.
Of course, this is also because Zhou Shan is in his prime now.
After a period of time, the storm gradually subsided, and the fishermen would calm down and not rush into it.
