Chapter 99: Bai Jiao - Fat catfish, planning the future of the guardian beast, black blood murder!
Just as Professor Lin was setting the trap, the attention of the surrounding crowd was naturally attracted and they began to talk about it.
"Look, look! The officials are moving."
"It looks like they're setting up a fishing net or something. Are they trying to capture this giant beast? They might as well just blast it and kill it."
"You are stupid. This kind of giant beast only appears once in a thousand years! We must catch it and study it."
"Indeed! I always feel that the world has become a little strange over the years. Maybe these creatures have reverted to their ancestral bloodline, hahaha~"
As soon as these words were spoken, some people in the crowd who knew about the existence of supernatural beings fell silent.
Don't laugh, brother! You won't be able to laugh when you know what's happening in the world.
During the preparation process, Bai Yu and others also put on stealth suits.
Although everyone thought that Bai Ling could make the catfish spirit obedient by releasing the dragon's might, just like the snake and the fat catfish, it was definitely blood suppression.
But there are so many people watching, so we have to pretend.
Otherwise, Void Tamer, right?
"It's all set up."
"Dive!"
"Look! They're diving!"
"Fuck! Isn't this too bold? I have seen that monster. It is at least ten meters long. It might eat people."
"They're crunchy, right?"
"Should you have brought weapons?"
"Hard to say."
"Don't kill it! I haven't seen a catfish before. Maybe it's just a rumor, maybe it's a whale that has moved inland!"
"Yeah, I've been watching it for over two hours, I just want to take a look! Just to confirm."
underwater.
This time, Bai Yu’s fear was not as strong.
After a while, he swam near the catfish and saw the catfish sleeping soundly.
Seeing this, Bai Yu also released Bai Ling.
The current Bai Ling is only about two meters long and does not look big. Compared with the fat catfish, it looks a little petite.
"Brother Bai Yu, what should we do next?"
"This monster is only half a step into the Spiritual Origin Realm. It looks a little fat, but if you really fight, you should be able to easily control it. Now, let's see if you can communicate with it and make it obey our management. If it doesn't obey, give it to the professor and let him tame it."
"Okay~"
After Bai Ling finished speaking, she swam over.
This catfish looks quite silly, with its big white belly expanding and contracting.
Bai Ling came above it and swung its tail to send water flowing, but it hit its belly and the creature didn't seem to react.
"Humph!"
She also has the mentality of a child, and the pride of being a real dragon makes her a little angry.
The tail spun and a small vortex instantly formed in the area.
The force of the whirlpool guides the catfish to start spinning.
The catfish then sensed something, and with a somersault, it half sat up and looked around.
He first saw Bai Yu and others, and seemed to glare at everyone with his palm-sized eyes.
Damn it! Disturbing the fish's sweet dream!
It will then swim over and teach a lesson to the human who disturbed its sweet dream.
But Bai Ling's soul voice sounded: "Fathead fish!"
The catfish seemed to understand the sound. It shuddered all over, stirring up the mud in the water.
Bai Yu and the others lost their sight and instantly became alert.
But Bai Ling's voice rang out: "You still want to escape from me?"
Then, Bai Ling swung its tail over, and a huge stream of water rolled up.
Although I didn't see the specific situation, I always felt a "pop" sound.
Sure enough, the catfish was caught.
Bai Yu: What the hell! A 12-meter-long fat fish is so useless? Are you so fat and big for nothing?
After being hit, the catfish dared not fight back or run away.
He turned around, faced the muddy water, and bowed his head!
father!
No! Godfather!
That's not right! It should be stepmother!
The Dragon Mother is above, if the mother is not as good as her, Yu is willing to worship her as his stepmother!
It seems like he is begging for mercy.
"Whether I will let you go or not, I need to ask Brother Baiyu."
The catfish seemed to understand and looked at Bai Yu and the other six people, as if looking for who Bai Yu was.
These six guys all look the same.
Bai Yu found this scene quite interesting.
'Is this effective communication? How crude!'
Judging from the process, this catfish spirit is quite human! And this fat catfish does look cute and very suitable for domestication.
After thinking for a while, Bai Yu said, "Tell me about your origins."
The catfish seemed to be stunned for a moment, with confusion in its big eyes.
Look at me, do I have a mouth? What can I say?
"I told you to speak, didn't you hear me?"
The catfish suddenly remembered that there was this young lady here who could act as a translator.
Without even opening his mouth, Bai Ling relayed, "You said that you awakened your spiritual wisdom five days ago? Before that, you used the spiritual eye in the lake to grow stronger."
"You are just borrowing this precious land to practice now? There is absolutely no bad intention."
After hearing the retelling, Bai Yu asked, "Then why did you run out to scare people?"
"Gulu~Gulu~"
The catfish opened its mouth as if in argument.
"Brother Baiyu, it said it was just tired from training and went out for a walk. It didn't mean to scare anyone."
"Okay. Since you are so fat, you really need to walk more and lose some weight."
Catfish Spirit: ??? I am not fat! This is all the accumulation of years. But I dare not say it.
"Then tell him to follow me to the lake and interact with ordinary humans. It would be best if you could get someone to sit on your back and calm the people down."
"In the future, you can show up, and even go to the shore to play with humans. But you must behave yourself, appear smart and docile."
"Then, here comes the key task I'm going to give you! Spend a few hours every day patrolling the waters of the two lakes to see if there are any abnormal creatures, or alien monsters like murlocs."
"Just think of it as losing weight."
Liu Feifei and others did not hear the content of the conversation between Bai Yu and Professor Lin, and were shocked when they heard this idea.
When it comes to playing, you know how to play!
Can this really stay in Spirit Lake?
Did Professor Lin also agree?
Seeing that the catfish was still thinking, Bai Ling swung his tail, causing the water to flow.
When the catfish saw this, it immediately became obedient and bowed madly, probably nodding its agreement. Those who didn’t know might have thought it was Smithy Marseille.
"Brother Bai Yu, he agreed."
"Well. If you actively attack humans, you should consider how much this body of meat is worth."
The catfish quickly refuted.
"It said it would never eat human flesh and had no interest in humans. It just wanted to practice diligently and become the strongest catfish."
"That's good! I'll surface occasionally and interact with tourists. If the tourism industry is booming and I can make some money, I'll use it to buy you treasures for cultivation."
When the catfish heard this, he thought, what a great idea!
Everyone: ??? Make money?
Good guy!
They could already imagine how booming the tourism industry would be after the spiritual beast appeared in the world.
just
Li Yunbin couldn't help but say, "Well, although there is no specific arrangement from above and we are allowed to play freely, I'm afraid it will cause a sensation if we do this."
"Captain, this is not just my plan. Professor Lin's original plan was to take it back for taming. If it is successfully tamed, we can consider releasing it back to Yunhu. At least judging from the attitude of the higher-ups in handling this matter, it seems quite casual."
"Now, the incident at Morte Manor has become so serious that the truth cannot be hidden any longer. The supernatural world should not be able to keep it secret for long. I feel that the higher-ups are also thinking of loosening the rules step by step. If the news spreads suddenly in the future, the panic of people who have already had contact with friendly spirit beasts will be reduced."
"Well, I'll write a report to the higher-ups." "Okay! Shall we take the catfish spirit up first?"
Li Yunbin also agreed: "We can see how the people react to the catfish spirit. This mission was clearly assigned by the higher-ups before we came here."
"okay!"
Bai Yu is a newcomer, but the most important thing is that he has made a lot of contributions, so he is indeed fearless in doing things.
He thought that the right thing to do was to let the spirit beast do things for him and patrol the waters in a fair and open manner.
As for the exposure of the extraordinary world, it seems that the higher-ups are mentally prepared.
Also!
It has been nearly twenty years since the revival of spiritual energy, and the basic situation seems to be stable.
No need to worry about losing control of the situation.
The surface of Yunhu Lake.
When many people learned that the official people had sneaked away, they stopped working and rushed here directly.
There were even more people watching.
"Look! The black shadow! It's the water monster!"
"Is this water monster being dragged by something? Why is it following that group of people so coordinated?"
"I do not know."
"Holy crap! I really saw a water monster! This trip to Tianhai City was not in vain!"
Bai Yu and others soon reached the shore, and the catfish stopped by the lake.
When Professor Lin saw this scene, he could tell that Bai Yu had successfully solved the problem.
Yes! In a sense, catfish is also a dragon servant.
The dragon carries the power of a dragon, which is enough to intimidate many spiritual beasts.
The domestication effect must be much better than artificial domestication.
If the spirit beast is locked up in a research institute, it will instead become resentful.
After Bai Yu got ashore, he held a loud speaker, pointed to the right, and shouted, "Swim to the right!"
The giant catfish immediately did as instructed.
The crowd on the shore cheered instantly.
"What the hell! Am I dreaming? Can fish understand human language? This giant monster is actually listening to that man's instructions!"
"What the hell! Is this true? A beast tamer?"
"Swim left!"
"Take a turn!"
"Spray some water!"
When the catfish heard this, he was confused. "Dude, why am I spraying water? You're not going to find an excuse and say I did something wrong and then kill me, are you?"
Bai Yu's original intention was to spray water like a whale, but he suddenly forgot that this guy was a catfish, not a mammal.
But to his surprise, the catfish was confused for a while, then took a sip with its mouth and sprayed it out in the form of a little mist.
This scene shocked the people on the shore.
"Wow! This giant monster has a very high IQ! It's like a water collie. It can actually think."
"I wonder if there are people in our world who have superpowers and can tame animals!"
"You should read more books! The IQ of a killer whale is that of a 12- or -year-old. Dogs like Border Collies are at most years old! So the IQ of this giant fish is about the same as that of humans. It is normal for them to understand instructions, it's just a matter of whether they listen or not."
Look! There are great scholars debating the classics!
After scolding for a while, Bai Yu started chatting with Professor Lin next to him, thinking about helping him write a manuscript in the name of Professor Lin.
Professor Lin looked at the reactions of the people around him and was not worried at all. Instead, he said excitedly, "I like your style of doing things! Hahaha~ To be honest, I also think that creatures like spirit beasts should live in nature and interact with people more."
"If some powerful spirit beasts develop strong feelings for the humans in a certain place, they may even become guardian beasts! Guarding the area and fighting against future alien races."
"I feel that our future will be like this. There will be many powerful spirit beasts with the blood of divine beasts, guarding all sides and fighting against alien gods!"
Bai Yu didn't expect Professor Lin to have such an idea, and he also replied: "Hey! That's right. The old guys above are too conservative. In today's era, we need to be in charge of it later."
".How about I add this sentence to the report?"
"That's totally unnecessary! But, to be honest, you carried the catfish away in front of so many people. It was so sneaky, as if you were trying to cover up something. It would be better to let everyone see it openly. Professor, don't you agree?"
"Haha~ Are you worried that this giant beast will become a hot topic in the news and cause a bigger commotion? Will the higher-ups find out and give you trouble? Are you trying to make amends for yourself now?"
Bai Yu touched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.
We are indeed worried that it will get too big! Fortunately, we can take back the site at any time, transport the catfish away, and ban the relevant videos from being circulated on the Internet.
But doing so would give the impression of being caught trying to cover up one's own faults. And his plan to patrol the two lakes was ruined, so he could only use underwater detectors or something like that.
“I’m a little worried.”
"Don't worry about that. In fact, it's not just Tianhai City that had the kind of incident that happened yesterday. It's happened in other places as well. Truth cannot be hidden. Is it my personal decision that I agree with your idea?"
"In fact, some places have already relaxed control over spiritual beasts and similar events, and even allowed some ordinary people who have a friendly relationship with spiritual beasts to continue living with them. It's just that the news is controlled in a small area, as a small-scale social experiment!"
"I will submit a complete report on Yunhu Lake's matter to the higher-ups, and I will also write a detailed research report on this catfish spirit."
When Bai Yu heard this, his favorable impression of Professor Lin increased significantly, even though it was only the second time they met and the first time they met.
Come to think of it, the big guys in this world seem to be pretty good.
While Bai Yu was chatting with Professor Lin, Li Yunbin's cell phone rang.
"Hello~"
"Captain! We have information about the Black Blood Case."
Li Yunbin has already said that he will not take any major cases in the next few days. But they must be notified of the black blood case in this area!
This situation is quite dangerous and cannot be delayed.
"Well, tell me."
"Captain, do you remember the young couple from Xiangya Hospital that we dealt with before? We have been investigating the past information of that woman."
"Then, last night the captain mentioned the male issue, so we went to the man's apartment today to investigate. We found two bodies in the room! One was the man's body, and the other was a prostitute he had found."
"It looks like this woman was eaten by a monster. Now only a skeleton is left."
"The man named Wu Lei has turned into a monster! However, he is now a black mummy, and it seems that all his blood has been drained."
Hearing this, Li Yunbin's expression suddenly became serious.
Their previous research direction has always been on pregnant women.
But the two men who attacked Bai Yu yesterday suddenly turned into black-blooded monsters! He became suspicious at the time and told the analysis team to change direction.
Now this incident involving Wu Lei has come up again.
And the black blood was drained!!!
It seemed as if this black blood was of great use, so it was collected by people.
There is obviously something fishy going on here, and it may be the key to the case.
"Okay, I got it. Send me the information, you guys control the scene first, I'll be there soon. Be careful of the black-blooded creatures, even if they're dead!"
"understand!"
After saying that, Li Yunbin hung up the phone and looked at Bai Yu who was talking to Professor Lin about how to deal with catfish.
"Professor Lin, I would say we should lift the blockade now and allow some brave people to come over and have more contact with us."
"You kid! With so many people rushing in, aren't you afraid of a stampede? Too many people can easily get out of control. We still have to continue blocking it off until everyone's enthusiasm dies down and there are fewer people, then we can do as you say."
"That's true! But there are so many people here, why don't we select a few brave ones and set an example for them to experience it. Just treat it as a publicity campaign. Otherwise, some people will say that such a dangerous beast should not be taken away or killed, but left in Yun Lake to scare people."
"That's fine."
Professor Lin's choice to agree means that if something goes wrong, he will choose to take part of the responsibility.
However, based on his research on spiritual animals, he also understood that spiritual animals were sometimes smarter than humans.
More importantly, the minds of spiritual beasts are simpler!
Just like sometimes people say that dogs are more loyal than humans, because the simpler the creature, the less it thinks, and sometimes the more reliable it is.
In modern society, you cannot expect people's thoughts not to change.
After a while, investigators came to screen people.
Today's update is 21,000, and later I will talk about recent achievements and questions raised by readers.
