The village beauty and me!

Chen Huan raised his arm, ready to give the fox that had fallen into the water a good beating.

But to everyone's surprise, the big fox disappeared immediately after falling into the river.

Apart from the splashing waves and a few bubbles on the water's surface, it seemed as if nothing had happened.

"That bastard, a diver, huh?" Chen Huan stood on the shore, holding a stone in his hand, unsure whether to be angry or laugh.

He was very rational and did not choose to go into the water.

Instead, his gaze was fixed intently on the water's surface.

Although it is not a full moon today, the moonlight is still bright enough.

Chen Huan could detect even the slightest movement on the water's surface.

"I'll see how long you can stay hidden, you bastard."

"As soon as you post anything, I'll give you a surprise!"

Chen Huan muttered to himself, his attention fixed on the water's surface.

Sure enough, the big fox eventually had to come up for some fresh air.

Several large bubbles first appeared in a place a dozen meters to the left front.

Immediately afterwards, a pointed black nose appeared.

"Go to hell!" Chen Huan couldn't wait to throw the stone over.

It hit the target squarely, right on the tip of the nose.

More bubbles rose from the water, and at that moment, Chen Huan seemed to hear the large fox's indistinct scream.

"Beautiful!" Chen Huan gave herself a thumbs up.

The large fox seemed to have choked on water after being attacked, and suddenly floated to the surface before being slowly carried by the current to the other side.

Then it stopped moving.

"Yo ho."

"He kicked the bucket so easily?" Chen Huan was overjoyed.

At that moment, he didn't care about anything else, so he took off his clothes, threw off his pants, and jumped into the river.

They were in a hurry to acquire this extra-large, top-quality fur.

"This thing could probably sell for over ten thousand yuan."

"Maybe it can go even higher." Chen Huan muttered as he approached the large fox.

Just as I was about to grab its tail, I suddenly saw the big fox's belly swell up.

"Holy crap!" Chen Huan got goosebumps all over.

He immediately sensed something was wrong and turned to try to escape.

The next second, a cloud of yellow smoke suddenly gushed out from the fox's rear end.

The air carried an indescribable, foul, and nauseating odor.

Luckily, I was prepared and avoided being sprayed directly, otherwise I probably would have been suffocated by the fumes.

Even so, he was still choked so badly that tears and snot streamed down his face, and he looked like he was about to suffocate and faint.

At that moment, he immediately plunged his head into the water.

The cool river water, combined with the surging and cleansing of spiritual energy within my body, finally helped me get rid of the effects of this terrifying biochemical attack in a short period of time.

He had only ever heard of weasels or skunks using such methods to save their lives when they encountered danger.

But to everyone's surprise, the fox could also use this trick, and even added the element of faking death.

"You bastard, I'll never forgive you!" Chen Huan quickly stood up.

As I shook the water droplets off my face, I saw the large fox with a swollen mouth and nose quietly approaching me.

His eyes gleamed with malice, and he bared his teeth.

It was clearly a plan to launch a sneak attack.

"I'll kill you!" Chen Huan cursed, pulled a knife from his waist, and stabbed it at the fox's face.

Unfortunately, the ground beneath his feet was covered in very smooth pebbles. He exerted too much force and lost his footing, so the knife missed its mark.

They only scratched off a few whiskers from the big fox, which eventually made the creature turn around in a panic and run ashore through the water.

Chen Huan, staggering, was extremely frustrated.

He secretly blamed himself for being too careless.

Otherwise, the big fox would have had absolutely no chance of escaping.

The fox noticed that Chen Huan hadn't come out of the river yet, and seemed to think it could easily escape.

So during the escape, it actually turned its head and barked twice in a very smug way.

Then, his joy turned to sorrow when he stepped on the smoothest pebble on the riverbank—a cunning move.

"Awoo..." The big fox cried out and fell flat on its back.

"Haha!" Chen Huan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

But in the end, when he reached the shore, he saw the big fox get up in a disheveled state and stumble into the jungle.

"Go ahead and try again if you dare!"

"I refuse to believe I can't get rid of you."

"Let me tell you, you can forget about cultivating in this forest from now on. Even Jesus wouldn't give you any face!" Chen Huan stood by the river, soaking wet, hands on his hips, unleashing a torrent of trash talk into the forest.

The fox ran very fast, and once it entered the forest, it moved as if it were flat ground.

In the blink of an eye, they were already more than 200 meters away. It wasn't until then that they shouted twice, and it's unclear whether they were cursing.

Chen Huan had no intention of pursuing the matter further.

I wasn't well prepared today, and I wasn't very lucky either.

Especially after being exposed to the smell of farts, my head is still a little dizzy.

"I'll spare you for now."

"Just wait and see how I deal with you!" Chen Huan cursed as he returned to the river, took another thorough bath, and then went back to get dressed.

It was already past midnight when Chen Huan tiptoed home and went to her room to sleep.

The next morning, just as dawn was breaking, my phone's chat app beeped with a notification.

It's Zhao Jingjing. "Boss Chen, what's the work schedule for today?"

Chen Huan rubbed his eyes again. "By the river, let's catch fish."

"Half an hour later."

Put down your phone and sit up.

Thinking about what happened last night, I'm still a little annoyed.

If it weren't for that big fox causing trouble, I could have easily made tens of thousands of yuan by simply using a net to scoop things up a few times at the riverbank today.

Now, things are really messed up; we have to use the old methods again, which will definitely take more time.

After a quick breakfast, Chen Huan drove his pickup truck, carrying his tools, to the riverbank.

Zhao Jingjing had already arrived and was sitting on a rock by the river, swinging her two fair legs and playing in the water.

Seeing Chen Huan get out of the car, he immediately teased, "Hey Boss Chen, what happened to your fishpond?"

"I just checked, there don't seem to be any fish in there. Your aquaculture techniques aren't very good."

Chen Huan was so angry that her teeth ached.

She was already in a bad mood, and then this young girl who was paid by her had to laugh at her. She was furious.

He snorted and said, "I'm worried that if the fish stay in one place all the time, they'll get upset and it will affect the quality of the meat."

"Let's try a different method today, we'll just fish them out of the river."

"Go to the car and get me the tools."

Considering the 100 yuan daily wage, Zhao Jingjing got up and went to get her tools.

Following his previous method, Chen Huan broke off a small piece of the golden pill and threw it into a spot where the current was slow-moving.

Fortunately, the fish, shrimp, and crabs in the river quickly rushed over.

Fishing here is not as easy or convenient as fishing in a pond.

The worst part is that after they're caught, they have to be re-cultivated, which is the most troublesome part.

However, Chen Huan had already come up with a solution last night.

While he was preparing to catch fish, he asked Zhao Jingjing to put two layers of extra-large plastic sheeting over the truck bed.

In this way, the truck bed is essentially turned into a small cultivation pond.

Soaking the fish in it later will save a lot of trouble.

At worst, I'll just tell Qiao Lingling that today's fish will be delivered two hours later.

Seeing that the fish had gathered enough, Chen Huan prepared to start catching them.

But just at that moment, he suddenly smelled a familiar and unpleasant stench in the air.

"No way, not again?"
