The Dark King
chapter-835

“Old Lei, How’s Your Harvest Here?”One of the people who was fishing by the lake noticed the excited expressions of priory and the others surrounding the deep pit. He felt strange and walked over with a spear in his hand.

Priory turned to look at him. His gaze fell on his basket. There were a few small fish bouncing gently inside. “Bean, your harvest is not bad.”

Bean grinned. Just as he was about to say something, his gaze was suddenly attracted by the scene in the deep pit. He opened his mouth slightly and stood rooted to the ground. After a while, he turned his head to look at Priory in disbelief, “This, this was all done by you guys just now?”

“Could it have been done last night?”Priory laughed.

The others also laughed. They were very excited. At first they were worried that they wouldn’t get anything by bringing a shovel. However, this novel hunting method gave them an unexpected surprise. Just the fish in the deep pit.., it was enough for them to live for many days. Moreover Dudian was going to catch another net. They felt unprecedented happiness and excitement.

“My God!”Bean exclaimed.

The people who were fishing by the lake heard the movement and came over curiously. Soon, there was an exclamation. All the people who were fishing were stunned.

Dudian saw the blue fish in the net struggling and jumping. He frowned. He didn’t think that these small fish would be so fierce. They were dehydrated but they could hold on for so long until they suffocated to death, it would take about an hour later. He looked at priory: “Ask everyone to open a hole behind the net. Prepare to harvest the fish. Put them in the mud pit behind the net. Be careful not to be bitten.”

The others were listening to Dudian’s words. Dudian didn’t wait for Priory to reply. Someone shouted: “I’ll do it!”

“I’ll do it too!”

“Count me in.”

Pley saw that everyone was excited and laughed. He immediately assigned them to the back of the deep hole. Because of the low terrain, the fish slipped out of the net when the gap was opened, they fell into the mud pit.

Several people stood in the mud pit and used shovels to scoop up the fish. They threw them onto the shore.

The others waited by the pit and immediately smacked the fish to death or fainted before putting them into bags and baskets.

The few people who were fishing nearby saw them collecting the fish wantonly and were extremely envious. They felt like a delicious piece of food was emitting a tempting fragrance in front of their eyes. Some of them also bent down to pick up the fish with baskets.

Priory noticed that the few people who were fishing were also picking up fish and shouted, “You guys, didn’t we agree before that you would catch your fish and we would catch ours? How are you going to pick up our fish?”

The moment he opened his mouth, the other people who were working hard also noticed this and immediately shouted, “Yes!”

“What are you guys doing? Why are you picking up our fish?”

“We dug this pit and we caught the fish. It’s not appropriate for you guys to pick up our fish, right?”

When the people who were picking up fish heard their protests and unkind gazes, they immediately felt embarrassed. One of them said embarrassedly, “There are so many fish, and you guys can’t hold them all. We all came out together, why do you have to do this?”

“What do you mean we can’t hold them all? Who said we can’t hold them all?”Someone immediately said angrily.

Although everyone present knew each other and could be considered acquaintances, in front of food, they were not so easy to talk to.

The fish pickers knew that they were in the wrong, but seeing that they could not get any of the fish, they could not bear it in their hearts, the middle-aged man who was trying to persuade priory said: “Old Ray, we came out to hunt. You Can’t be so heartless. There are so many fish and you don’t want to share one with us. Isn’t it too much?”

Priory’s eyebrows twitched, he angrily said: “I told you to bring a shovel. Did you bring it? When we were digging, you were fishing. If we didn’t catch a fish, would you share your catch with us? !”

The middle-aged man was speechless.

Dudian saw that they were about to quarrel so he came out to smooth things over: “Old Ray.”

Everyone looked at him.

“Let them keep the fish. We are all from the same village. There is no need to share these. We are all on the same side.”Dudian said generously.

Priory was a bit unwilling: “But they didn’t listen to you and talked about you behind your back. They didn’t use any strength…”

Dudian raised his hand: “Everyone’s life is not easy. Give me face and I’ll give them my share. I Can’t eat so much anyway.”

“No Way!”Puley shouted when he heard that Dudian was going to give up his share.

The others didn’t expect that dudian would speak up for them. They couldn’t help but feel grateful. At the same time, they felt ashamed and regretful.

“Old Ray.”Dudian looked at pulley.

Pulley saw that Dudian’s attitude was so firm: “Since you have spoken, as long as no one has any objections then we will give them a share!”

“I don’t have any objections.”

“I don’t have any objections either. These fish were Mr. Dudian’s idea. Mr. Dudian will give them to whoever he wants.”

“Do you agree if Mr. Dudian says that he won’t give them to you?”

“I...”

The others laughed as the atmosphere eased up.

“Hurry up and load the fish.”Dudian said.

Everyone knew that time was tight. They clenched their teeth and worked hard. The people who were fishing also helped. They realized that the small basket they brought was too small, before they came they thought that it would be a big harvest if they could hold a full basket. But now it seemed that compared to the people like priory who had big bags, it was nothing.

Many people regretted their short-sightedness.

It didn’t take long before the fish were thrown out of the deep pit. Dudian looked at the time and ordered priory to re-set the net. He opened the bank of the lake and water rushed in. There were a lot of small blue fish.

Everyone was excited as they picked up the small fish on the shore.

The few people who had caught the fish before finally knew why they could catch so many fish. Compared to them, this fishing method was simply a robbery.

Dudian looked at the front of the lake and paid attention to the appearance of the monster fish. However, when the net was full again, the monster fish still didn’t appear. He was relieved, in this way he didn’t have to make a move.

In the blink of an eye the hunting time was over. Dudian led everyone back. Everyone was carrying bags and baskets full of fish. More than a dozen of them were carrying fish in the net. The harvest was amazing.

After returning to the canyon, priory hit the rocks and everyone returned to the tunnel.

The two guards were surprised to see that everyone was full of harvest. They couldn’t help but look at Dudian. They knew that such a terrifying harvest should be related to this outsider. After all.., they had seen pulley lead the team to catch fish countless times but they had never had such a huge harvest.

Although the fish were very heavy but the atmosphere of the team was very happy. After entering the tunnel, one of them couldn’t help but hum a song. The others heard the melody and sang together.

They returned to the village.

Everyone gathered all the fish in the square at the entrance of the village. Some children who were playing nearby saw it and were stunned.

The news quickly spread throughout the village and attracted many people to watch.

Dudian saw the excited expression of these people and smiled in his heart. This bit of food was not very valuable to him but it was the best tool to close the relationship with the residents.

He felt that if he could catch a few more times, he would soon become the beloved existence of everyone here. At that time, it would be very convenient for him to do something.

“Old Ray, count the number of fish.”Dudian said.

Priory looked at the surrounding residents who were amazed and envious. He felt a sense of pride and honor. After hearing Dudian’s order, he felt a sense of enjoyment. He ordered the few people to pour out the fish, they began to count.

There were two groups of people coming from the back of the tunnel. They were the two groups of people who had gone hunting with them.

One group of people carried a three meter tall monster which looked like a wild boar.

“Eh, Old Ray?”The middle-aged man who had greeted priory when he was sleeping in the tunnel pushed away the crowd. He saw Priory but didn’t say anything. His eyes were attracted by the piles of fish on the ground, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

Priory turned around and saw him: “Jess, you are back. Not bad. You have a big harvest this time.”

Jess couldn’t help but stare at him: “Are you mocking me? Did you fish up all the fish in the lake? So Many?”

Priory laughed: “If all the fish were fished out then this place wouldn’t be able to fit them.”

Jess rolled his eyes and looked around the square. He saw Dudian’s figure and asked: “Old Ray, is this an outsider?”

Pulley replied: “Don’t call him an outsider. This is my benefactor, Mr. Dudian.”

Jess slightly curled his lips and looked at the pile of fish on the ground. He was a bit envious but knew that it was useless to look at it. He turned around and waved: “Let’s go and share our fish.”

After a while, the number of fish was counted out. There were more than 1,800 fish in total. Priory gave Dudian 500 fish but Dudian refused. He proposed to hold a fish feast in the evening, he invited the whole village to taste the fish.

Priory was a bit reluctant when he heard that the whole village was invited to taste the fish. But since Dudian had asked him to do so, he was embarrassed to refuse. Moreover, he had learned Dudian’s method, there would be a good harvest if he went out to fish in the future. He didn’t have to be stingy this time.

Metal Temple.

Amelia finished her report to the High Priest, she pouted: “This man is quite powerful. He didn’t use any force but he caught so many fish. I wanted to take this opportunity to see what he is capable of. I didn’t expect that he didn’t see anything.”

“I can see quite a lot,”the great divine priest said slowly. “He is very smart, and he has designs on our village.”

“Smart is right. Sister, you said that he has designs on us?”Amelia was surprised.

The great divine priest said slowly, “He is just a passer-by. There is no need for him to be so friendly to us. Amelia, you have to remember that behind any unnecessary kindness, there is something else. I don’t think that a person like him who dares to come to such a dangerous place to survive by himself will retain a childlike kind heart. So, he must have taken a fancy to us.”

“Sister, what does he see in US?”Amelia asked her obediently.

“We’ll observe for a few more days,”the high priest said softly, “He’ll give us an answer. However, don’t remind them to go hunting at the Blue Fish Lake. The more fish they catch, the more grateful they’ll be to him. I don’t want them to become his loyal followers in the end.”
