From the time travel, I became extraordinary

Chapter 29 Water Tiger
It was dark underwater and there was no sense of direction at all.

Without the aroma of the bran cakes, even if Jiang Yao wanted to control the fish to rush to the shore, it might lose direction and run around in the water.

His actions at this moment were purely a last-ditch effort.

I don’t know if Jiang Yao stepped on dog poop when he went out today, or if his luck really came.

Just when his mental energy was too depleted and he could no longer control the fish, and was about to return to his original form, the fish, which he had forcibly controlled to stay close to the bottom of the water and bite the fish with its mouth wide open, suddenly felt a sharp pain in its mouth.

Immediately afterwards, the bell hanging on the thin bamboo pole on the river bank began to ring wildly, "ding ding ding... ding ding ding."

When Jiang Yao heard the sound of the bell, he felt ecstatic and his spirit in the water instantly returned to his body.

He felt exhausted and had no strength at all. He had just grabbed the plastic bottle that was holding the fishing line when he heard a "click" and the thin bamboo pole with the fishing line in front of him broke.

A few nights ago, when Jiang Yao encountered a big fish while night fishing, the most he did was to pull the fishing line off the thin bamboo pole. But now...

It was obvious that the pulling force coming from underwater was much stronger than the previous times when we encountered big fish.

Without this resilient bamboo pole as a buffer, the fierce pulling force from underwater has directly acted on Jiang Yao's body.

"Dengdengdeng..."

He was not in a good mental state, and was caught off guard, so he was pulled forward seven or eight meters by this force.

Fortunately, the front section was a shallow beach and the river was not too deep.

Although Jiang Yao was pulled into the water and waded for some distance, the water was only just above his knees.

"Fuck, it's so powerful, what kind of fish is this?"

It was not until this time that Jiang Yao finally reacted and stabilized his body.

He held on to the plastic bottle tightly and saw that the few fishing lines on it were being pulled out in circles quickly. He was a little flustered and quickly held the fishing lines tightly.

In this way, although it cannot prevent the fishing line from being pulled out further, it can allow the fish to consume more energy when pulling the line.

When there were only a few turns of thread left, he quickly turned the plastic bottle in his hand horizontally so that the thread on it could no longer be pulled out.

Jiang Yao was very nervous as he was pulling the fish hard like this. He was afraid that if he was not careful, the fishing line would be broken.

Fortunately, the No. 10 wire he used was thick and strong enough.

After being pulled forward a few steps by the fierce pulling force, he finally managed to stabilize himself temporarily and reached a stalemate with the fish underwater.

"Look over there, that guy must have caught a big fish."

"The person was dragged directly into the water. What a huge fish it must be!"

"There's no fishing rod to relieve the force, just a plastic bottle to hold the line. The way he does it, if he encounters a big fish, the force will definitely be huge."

"But a fish that can pull a person down into the water must be big. A conservative estimate is that it must weigh more than ten kilograms."

"Let's go and take a look. He may not be able to pull up that big fish by himself. If necessary, we can help him!"

……

Many fishermen were like this. Even though they didn't catch any fish themselves, they were also very excited when they saw others catch big fish. In the nearby area, nine out of ten fishermen who saw Jiang Yao being pulled into the water put down their fishing gear and ran over here.

After standing in the water and holding off the fish for a while, Jiang Yao began to retreat to the shore little by little.

The plastic bottle in his hand also began to be wrapped in circles, slowly twisting the thread around the bottle.

Catching a big fish is a tug of war. Just when you pull the line in, the fish will make a sudden rush and pull the line out again.

If you have a fishing reel or fishing rod that can relieve the force, it will be much easier to use up all the fish's strength to flip it over.

But now Jiang Yao only has a plastic bottle in his hand...

He fought with the fish underwater for seven or eight times, which took more than ten to twenty minutes, before he finally pulled the fish out of the water.

"What a big fish. It must weigh at least 20 kilograms."

"Why is this fish's head bronze? What kind of fish is this? Does anyone know it?"

"Brother, you came to the Yuan River to fish, but you don't even recognize the famous water tiger. Are you here to make fun of me?"

"Water tiger? Alligator? Impossible. This fish only eats fish, not bran cakes. How can this little brother catch this fish using bran cakes as bait?"

"There are many impossible things in the world. I guess that his piece of bran cake was soaked in water, and a lot of small fish came to swim around. The black carp came to eat the small fish and swallowed the hook in one gulp."

"Hmm! That should be the case. He can catch a black carp with bran cakes. He is so lucky..."

……

There were clearly no more than ten fishermen nearby, but during the time that Jiang Yao was fighting with the fish, nearly twenty people gathered here.

Some of these extra people were carrying hoes, and some were holding carrying poles.

Because he did not continue fishing near Linxi Bridge, his fishing spot today was a little higher, where there were patches of vegetable fields and occasional houses standing in between.

It seems that some people who were working in the vegetable field learned that someone had caught a big fish here, so they put down their work and ran here to watch the fun!
More than half an hour later, a dark-skinned uncle, who was also a fisherman, took advantage of the fact that the alligator fish was exhausted and was pulled to the river bank by Jiang Yao. He cast a scoop net and directly scooped the fish into the net and dragged it to the shore.

"Uncle, thank you so much. Without your help, it would take me at least ten minutes to catch this fish. Come, have a cigarette!"

Jiang Yao, who was panting and also a little exhausted, quickly took out the bag of soft white sand from his pocket and gave the uncle one first.

After the uncle took the cigarette and lit it, he took the remaining cigarette and distributed it to the people around who were watching the fun.

Fortunately, he had the pack of cigarettes in his pocket and didn't smoke much. Among the people watching the fun, there were some non-smokers, and they didn't even take the cigarettes that Jiang Yao handed over. Otherwise, after passing them around, his pack of cigarettes would definitely not be enough.

It was just a pack of cigarettes, but Jiang Yaofa was willing to do it.

After all, although the meat of black carp is a bit tough and not very tasty, in terms of price, this fish is much more expensive than grass carp and carp!
Putting the fish under his feet, Jiang Yao wiped the sweat from his forehead and took a few breaths.

Just as he was about to put the fish into the net bag, a voice suddenly fell into his ears.

"Little brother, do you want to sell this fish?"

Not far away, a man in his forties, carrying a scale on his shoulder and a snakeskin bag under his armpit, was walking towards him quickly, sweating profusely.
