Lord Zhang Fei

Chapter 21: A Loadful Of Fish

In a corner of the pond, people made a small vacant lot. At this time, there was a beautifully dressed old woman dancing and making her beseech there.

She was intermittently chanting difficult and incomprehensible spells, giving people a mysterious feeling just because they saw an incredible thing they didn’t understand and felt the invisible pressure of impending incomparable horror.

In front of them was a pond of a radius of hundred meters, densely packed with dead fish. Both large and small, all filled the pond water. The huge pond was like a big pot full of dumplings.

No one knew the reason for so many dead fish. Some tribesmen discovered this situation when they were out fishing, one morning. The news spread quickly, and hundreds of people from the clan gathered at once.

Seeing this scene, everyone felt an unprecedented invisible terror. It seemed that the universe was heralding that bad luck was coming their way.

“A bad omen. It’s a bad omen.” The tribe shaman suddenly shouted, and the terrified people trembled and backed away a few steps.

“What kind of bad omen? How can you be confusing the crowd?” Suddenly a crisp voice sounded from behind the crowd.

.....

After hearing the sound, the people of the tribe suddenly felt a sense of encountering a potential savior from this condition they were in. The sound of discussion immediately broke the previously silent atmosphere of the place.

“It’s master Fei.”

“Young Master Fei is here, get out of the way.”

The clan members shouted and stepped out of the way. The crowd saw a group of four people, two men and two women, walking in from outside the gathered circle.

Walking at the front was a little boy about two or three meters tall, with a handsome and cute face, thin skin, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was not someone else, but Zhang Fei, the young son of the Ironwood tribe leader.

Compared with three years ago, Zhang Fei had not only grown taller and handsome, but also had a faint hint of aura in his eyes, making him look smart and cute. But in the hearts of the people, Zhang Fei was not only cute, but they also had some kind of admiration for him.

Zhang Fei’s performance in the clan over the years had long convinced the clan people of his intelligence and maturity, and no one treated Zhang Fei as a child at all.

Two women followed Zhang Fei. No need to look at them to know, of course they were the sisters Qiu Shuang and Qiu Hong who were not far from Zhang Fei’s side. It was said that at the eighteenth year alive, a woman would change.

The two sisters nowadays had faded from their youth and immaturity, and they were exuding a kind of youthful and charming beauty. Their pretty eyes, tall figure, and healthy complexion made the two sisters the focus of attention wherever they go, of course they could only be seen from a distance. Among the people of the tribe, who would dare to make a careless pass frivolously?

And the other middle-aged man behind the three was not much taller than Zhang Fei. If one didn’t look closely, one would think he was just a teenager. He looked dry, and there was a layer of rust on the skin, but the people of the tribe recognized at a glance.

This was mammoth who had been treated as a blacksmith and a joke by the tribe a few years ago, but now no one dared to make fun of this shriveled little man. Just because of the sudden display of Mammoth’s power in the past two years.

With the gradual prosperity of the Ironwood tribe, Mammoth, from the bragging king who used to only fight with iron, suddenly became the follower of Zhang Fei.

The most unexpected thing for the tribesmen was that it stemmed from a catastrophic hunting operation.

It was during a hunting two years ago.

The tribe, under the protection of the canon group, pursued a third-level monster under the command of Zhang Fei and went deep into the forest. They suddenly encountered a powerful Nerubian attack.

That incident caused a lot of deaths and injuries to the people of the tribe, and the power of the hand canon could not cause any harm to the monstrous spider. At this critical moment, Mammoth’s power suddenly broke out.

Seven amethysts that were more than half a foot long suddenly appeared out of thin air in front of Mammoth. Under the violent flash of the spirit crystals, a metal storm blew up in the forest instantly. Suddenly, the tribesmen were blown by the storm’s remaining prestige, standing unsteadily, and fell to the ground one after another.

But the Nerubian spider at the center of the storm lost his figure in an instant. After the storm stopped, people discovered that the eight long legs of the spider demon had disappeared long ago, and only two rolling meat balls were left, but they had been pierced into a sieve.

The outbreak of Uncle Mammoth’s strength not only opened the eyes of the tribe, but also allowed Zhang Fei to see the power of a spiritualist for the first time. Since then, Zhang Fei had become more intimate with this uncle mammoth. And Mammoth had become the patron saint of the Ironwood tribe in the minds of the people.

Seeing Zhang Fei and the three walking through the crowd to the side of the pond, they were shocked by the sight in front of them.

Zhang Fei couldn’t help muttering, “Sisters, how come there are so many fish here.”

Qiu Shuang stared at the pond dreamily and muttered. “Fei’er, this, didn’t you do this?”

Qiu Shuang couldn’t think of anyone else who could do such a miracle, and Mammoth’s nods confirmed this.

Mammoth said in surprise. “I didn’t expect that with just a sudden thought, our son would make such a big effect. By the heavens, are you still a human?”

“Sure enough, Fei’er is still the best.” Qiu Hong, who always regarded Zhang Fei as his own, also said blankly.

It turned out that the faint thunder from the horizon last night suddenly awakened Zhang Fei from his sleep. Then, there was a flash of inspiration in his mind, and Zhang Fei suddenly thought of making it happen.

Afterwards, Zhang Fei went to uncle Mammoth’s room and saw that he was cultivating in the room. Zhang Fei dragged him out and ran to the pond. He asked Mammoth to erect this long pole with gold magic. Then the two ran back to sleep before the thunderstorm came.

Because Zhang Fei’s yurt was far away from the cluster of the tribe, he didn’t know when the tribe came to the pond early the following morning.

After the practice, Zhang Fei and the others rushed over to check the effect after having breakfast. But even Zhang Fei didn’t expect that the effect would be so amazing. He immediately let uncle Mammoth put away the long pole, and looked at the tribe’s surprised eyes.

Zhang Fei couldn’t help but waved his hand like his father, and said to everyone, “What are you waiting for? Today’s harvest is so great, hurry up and collect the fish.”

After speaking, Zhang Fei glanced at the Shaman who shuddered suddenly, squeezed through the crowd, and ran towards the tribe’s settlements.

Zhang Fei smiled contemptuously, turned away from the crowds, and headed back towards the tribe’s settlement.

After the people of the tribe learned of the origin of this fish, knowing that this was done by Zhang Fei, they immediately rushed up, grabbing fish freely. It was so lively.
