Chapter 73 – Gray Waters, Infested Leech

Chapter 73 Gray waters, plague leeches

With other people around, Zhong Chao’s chances of encountering danger are much lower, but Zhong Chao is still upset that the special fish cannot be found.

In fact, rare is normal.

Special fish, a silver light fish costs about 10 taels of silver, a fire scale fish 15 taels, and other spiritual materials, such as sea ganoderma lucidum, blood jade coral, black pearl and other items, the price is not low.

If such a precious thing could be found easily, there would not be so many poor people in Jujiang City.

Normally speaking, if you can catch three or five special fish in one catch, it is considered a bumper harvest.

It is also because of the rarity that Oriole, a shop owner in the inner city, will come to the pier in person to buy special fish.

Unfortunately, Zhong Chao doesn’t know all this yet.

…

Feeling depressed and physically exhausted, Zhong Chao simply floated up to the surface of the river, lay on the water in a backstroke position, and basked in the sun.

“breathe…”

Zhong Chao on the river was breathing easily, and his skin was also greedily absorbing the power of sunlight, storing the energy of light into the cells.

What I want to say is that light can shine into the deep sea, from the water surface to the bottom of 200 meters deep, called the upper layer of the ocean, and the light at this time is only slightly reduced.

The water layer from 200 meters to 1,000 meters is called the middle ocean layer. The sunlight here cannot pass through the sea water completely, and the light is very weak.

Below 1000 meters, there is no sunlight, and it is a dark world of darkness.

And Zhong Chao mostly swims at the bottom of the river about 100 meters away, so although he dived down the river, he has been absorbing the power of the sun.

This is also the reason why he was able to persist for five hours without returning to the ship.

Now, after basking in the sun for fifteen minutes on the surface of the river, Zhong Chao’s physical strength has fully recovered.

‘The body of the great sun, the eternal god! ‘

After sighing, Zhong Chao took another deep breath, then turned over and plunged into the Nu River again.

“I don’t believe it, I couldn’t catch a single special fish today.”

Maybe it was just a matter of time, or God couldn’t see it. This time, not long after he plunged into the water, a silver light flashed across the corner of his eyes.

“Silver fish!”

The sudden discovery made Zhong Chao excited, and he kicked his feet, and he chased after the silver light fish.

However, within three breaths of chasing, his heart sank. The silver fish with chopsticks was too fast.

Just as Zhong Chao started, it leaped tens of meters away, as if there was no water resistance.

Well, with special skin, the water flow really can’t hinder this kind of fish.

This effect can be transferred to humans through silver light fish oil cream and ichthyosaur, which is considered a good thing.

But the good thing is in the future. Now Zhong Chao Yulongyou’s level is too low, he is only proficient at level 2, and he doesn’t have this special effect at all. Therefore, he can only watch the silver light fish slip away.

“Fuck!”

“I’m not suitable for catching fish… I haven’t seen a special one for a long time, and I can’t catch it if I do.”

Consecutive failures made Zhong Chao doubt himself.

Depressed mood, coupled with the lowering of the underwater vision, Zhong Chao did not notice that he, who was chasing the silver light fish, had entered a gray water.

“Why don’t you waste time, go back and find other ways to make money?”

“What can I do, the profitable business is blocked by those rich and powerful.”

“Phew… Forget it, stop thinking about it, catch it for a while… It’s okay if you can’t catch it, just treat it as training fish and dragon swimming.”

“Anyway, as long as I swim with standard posture, my proficiency in ichthyosaur swimming will increase.”

Changing his mind, Zhong Chao felt a little better.

And just when he was ready to continue swimming, a burst of pain suddenly hit him from behind.

“what!”

The pain that appeared in vain startled Zhong Chao, and he immediately reached out to grab it.

The benefits of body optimization appeared here. With his slender body, he was able to reach his back directly, and quickly grabbed a slippery thing.

It’s just that the thing was too slippery, and Zhong Chao’s arms were facing backwards and it was difficult to exert force, which made him unable to pull it down even though he grabbed the thing behind him.

And just when Zhong Chao was struggling with the thing biting him in the back.

“chi chi chi chi…”

Several more things bit him.

“Fuck!”

Feeling this, Zhong Chao didn’t dare to be negligent, and immediately jumped up with hands and feet.

Burning at three times the speed, in less than a minute, Zhong Chao jumped from the bottom of the Nu River to the surface of the river, looked around, and soon found his own boat, and quickly swam towards it.

“Boss, you… what’s wrong with you?”

Seeing Zhong Chao, Jiang Liang was originally happy, but immediately he found that Zhong Chao’s face was a little flustered, which made him panic too.

Yan Xiang and the others are also like this:

“My lord, what’s wrong with you?”

”I was attacked, help me look behind and see what attacked me.”

Getting on the boat, Zhong Chao turned over immediately, exposing his back. After seeing Zhong Chao’s back, Yan Xiang and the others gasped in a “hissy” breath, and one of them was timid and even jumped into the water to escape.

“???what happened?”

Just when Zhong Chao was at a loss, a terrified voice sounded:

“Plague leech!”

“Grey spots, three stripes, no mistake, this is the plague leech, you, you went to the gray waters?”

“Didn’t I tell you that you can’t go there!”

“It’s over, what to do, if he dies, we will all be over.”

The leech behind Zhong Chao completely frightened them.

Finally, Yan Xiang gritted his teeth and stood up.

“Don’t panic, it’s useless to panic now, hurry up and row the boat, let’s go to the shore to find a doctor, maybe there is still life!”

While directing the others, Yan Xiang said to Zhong Chao: “My lord, hold on, I know your body is very cold and your consciousness is fuzzy, but you must not fall asleep, once you fall asleep, you will be completely dead. It’s over.”

“Uh…”

This kind of instruction made Zhong Chao open his mouth, and he didn’t know what to say.

Seeing Zhong Chao like this, Yan Xiang thought he was unconscious, so he grabbed his shoulder and shook him.

“Wake up for me, if it doesn’t work, just think about your family, think about your friends, you don’t want to die either…huh?”

Yan Xiang, who was hoarse, wanted to shake Zhong Chao awake, but he couldn’t push Zhong Chao even with all his strength. This scene made him stunned.

What made him even more sluggish was that Zhong Chao, who had been bitten by a leech, spoke nonchalantly.

“The body is cold, and the consciousness is blurred. Is this leech so strong?”

“???”

“Are you okay?”

Seeing Zhong Chao’s clear mind and expression without a trace of pain, this time, it was Yan Xiang’s turn to be stunned.

“Impossible, the plague leech is an extremely dangerous thing. If you are bitten by it, evil spirits will immediately enter your body.”

“Even blood-changing warriors may not be able to block this evil spirit. At that time, your body will become stiff and your mind will become dizzy, and you will be dragged into the water by leeches and sucked to death.”

“Even if you escaped at that time, the evil spirit entering your body will cause huge damage to your body. It is difficult to treat it with ordinary medicine… This is only one. You were bitten by five plague leeches. How come nothing happened.”
