Hunting High School
Chapter 22 The Old Boatman's Little Show
The Silent River winds and coils around the entire Silent Forest. There are countless forks and branches. Entering it is like entering a huge waterway maze. Without a guide, no one knows where the The next moment ferry will go.
In particular, this forest also bred all kinds of magical creatures.
There are ugly dryads, charming goblins, well-known horned dragons, fire dragons, unicorns, fire Phoenixes, basilisks, ghouls, etc., as well as little-known ghosts and creatures, fishwives, roe deer, roe deer, deer and Shu, etc. Si, Gu carvings, etc., are countless. It can be said that almost all magical creatures with names and surnames in the wizarding world can be seen in this forest.
In a sense, Silent Forest is more like a biological laboratory opened by First University.
As the main source of water in the Great Forest, the Silent River has gathered a large number of magical creatures. So the dangers of traveling are obvious, and the role of a good boatman and a good ferry boat here is also self-evident.
Although the ferry boat is small, it has a hidden cave inside.
There are hundreds of steps in the cabin, there are warm ovens, comfortable soft chairs, delicious snacks, and delicious drinks. Being in it is like being in a lively salon. In addition, there are two tall floor-to-ceiling windows on both sides of the cabin. Standing in the window and looking out, the beautiful scenery on both sides of the Silent River is clear at a glance.
The river flowed comfortably one step away, and the luxuriant forests on the left and right banks firmly blocked the cold wind, and the water surface was as calm as a mirror. Only the mild sunlight can penetrate the conservative forest and send that dappled warmth into this dark world.
But for Zheng Qing, this comfort seems out of reach.
Elena stayed with her fellow gypsy witches, talking and laughing, making him restless. He intends to get closer, but he is thin-skinned and worried about being teased by those gypsy witches; he pretends not to see, but is ridiculed by the doctor and Fatty.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and read books recently, change sources, and read aloud with many timbres, yeguoyuedu Android and Apple are all available. 】
In a dilemma, he simply left the cabin and came to the deck.
Compared with the barge boat, the deck of the ferry boat is much wider, it can bear several people standing on it, and it also allows passengers to lie on the side of the boat and look out.
On the bamboo pole raised by the bow of the boat, a golden copper bell is hung, swaying in the cold wind. The tinkling of bells repelled approaching magical creatures, keeping the ferry somewhat safe.
Old Bernard Shaw stood at the bow of the boat with some bamboo baskets at his feet. Inside the bamboo basket are a few blue buffaloes, the size of a palm, resting peacefully on the bottom of the basket for a nap. Next to the buffalo, there are a few small silvery white fish, about an inch in length, with a pointed head and a round tail, but I don't know what species they are.
The side of the ferry boat was very low, over the dark and smooth side of the boat, the young wizard put his hand into the cool river water, fiddled with the water leisurely, creating ripples one after another. Just like his mood at this moment, it is difficult to calm down for a long time.
"Snapped!"
The penny came out of the water, with an afterimage, and lightly patted the back of Zheng Qing's hand, grinning his teeth, and subconsciously withdrew his hand from the river.
"Don't stick your hands into the water, be careful of your fingers being bitten off." Old Bernard Shaw gave the young wizard a warning look, as if sensing his indifference. Pick out a small silvery white fish, and pick it up in mid-air far away.
The fish tail with the tip of the pole lightly tapped on the water surface, and then circles of ripples swayed away, swaying far in this calm waters.
Zheng Qing's eyes widened.
The old boatman stopped the wind chime hanging on the bow of the boat, and looked down at the wizard: "Don't look at how quiet the water is...there are a lot of fierce beasts in the water!"
Before the words fell, a black figure jumped out of the water and rushed towards the silver-white prey.
Old Bernard Shaw's wrist trembled slightly, and the penny in his hand jumped upwards, and the small silver fish hanging from the top of the pole flew out immediately, and swung to a higher place with the pole tip, letting the black fish jump out of the water Shadow rushed to nothing.
The black shadow shook its head and tail vigorously, jumped three to five meters in the air, but finally lost to the effect of gravity, failed to bite the bait, and smashed back into the river water heavily, creating a big splash.
Like a starting gun, the splash broke the peace in the river.
One after another, large and small figures rushed out of the water, vying for the little silver fish. These fierce beasts in the water are only a dozen centimeters small, which is about the same size as that silvery white fish; the big ones are several meters long, almost reaching the size of this ferry boat. They all have ferocious faces, sharp fangs, and are very scary to look at.
The passengers in the cabin noticed the movement outside, and when they went out to check, they happened to see the spectacular scene of all kinds of aquatic creatures falling into the water like dumplings. The witches screamed, and the wizards were amazed.
Zheng Qing caught a glimpse of the familiar figure among those who left the cabin, and immediately closed her mouth that had just been frightened wide open. At the same time, she folded her arms, with a nonchalant expression on her face, and stared at the restless water surface. .
"What happened just now?" Elena's curious voice rang in Zheng Qing's ear.
The young public finance student turned his head as he wished, and explained the situation concisely and concisely in a flat tone. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Xin Fatty seemed to be planning to get closer to him, but Xiao Xiao dragged him back.
This made the wizard very satisfied, and he made up his mind to ask the doctor to eat a chicken leg after getting off the boat.
One and a half feet long, with its head occupying half of its body and its mouth full of fangs, it lost its direction when it fell from the air. It landed on the deck of the ferry with a 'pop', just in front of Irina. .
The witch let out a soft cry and retreated subconsciously. Before Zheng Qing could pull out the book in time, she kicked the strange fish back into the river with a kick. Then she calmed down and looked at Elena: "It's all right!"
The gypsy witch pressed her chest and seemed to be in shock. She didn't speak, but shook her head slightly.
Old Bernard Shaw’s gruff reminder sounded beside him:
"It's just a silver bait of an inch, and no big guy has been hooked." The old boatman knocked on the side of the boat with a boat pole, making a crackling sound, and threatened: "If you reckless little guys fall into the water, I will kill you." It’s too late to poke you with a pole, you don’t even have any bones left... Those gluttons in the water like little wizards with thin skin and tender meat the most.”
Zheng Qing looked at the water surface with lingering fear, recalling the huge mouth and sharp teeth of the fish on the deck just now, he deeply believed in what the old boatman said.
"What you're doing is not in compliance with the ferry operating regulations." At the hatch, Dr. Xiao questioned the old boatman's actions just now.
Old Bernard Shaw tilted his head and glanced at Xiao Xiao.
"I thought you guys would like this kind of little show." The old man blinked, and with a hook, he kicked the bamboo pole on the bow of the boat. The golden copper bell hanging on the top of the pole swayed accordingly, and there was a jingle of bells on the water surface.
The hunters who got out of the water panicked and dived into the bottom of the water one after another, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
The Silent River became silent again.
