I Can See Through Everything

As Lu Qing and Xiao Yan's figures appeared at the fishing spot, the villagers still fishing there were all stunned when they saw the fish on Lu Qing's back.

"Lu, Lu Qing, what are you carrying on your back?" one villager stammered.

"Fish," Lu Qing panted, replying.

He really felt a bit exhausted. His body hadn't fully recovered, and he had been fighting with the Blue Armored Fish and Red Moon Carp for so long. Now, walking with so many things on his back, he felt like he couldn't hold on any longer.

However, his answer left the villagers somewhat in shock.

Of course, they knew it was fish on his back! The problem was, where did he catch such big fish from? The villagers looked at the big fish on Lu Qing's back, which was taller than most of his body, with its tail dragging on the ground, and they felt a bit dizzy.

My goodness, it was the first time they had seen such a big fish! 

But some villagers noticed Lu Qing's predicament and quickly stepped forward to help him unload the fish.

"Come, come, I'll help you carry it. Your body just recovered, don't overexert yourself."

Lu Qing didn't refuse. He was indeed struggling a bit, thinking he could carry the fish home but overestimating his strength.

"Thank you, Brother Da An."

Lu Qing put down the fish, panting a bit.

"Hehe, no need to thank me. It's the first time I've seen such a big fish. Being able to touch it is a blessing. Wait, there's another one in this bucket. This fish is so beautiful!"

Villager Wang Da An was delighted, and when he looked down, he exclaimed again.

The other villagers couldn't hold back any longer and immediately surrounded the bucket to look inside.

"There's really another big fish in the bucket!"

"What kind of fish is this? It's bright red, never seen anything like it!"

"This fish is so beautiful, the city folks will definitely like it."

"Wow, Lu Qing, how did you catch them? Two big fish in one go?"

When the last question came out, everyone looked at Lu Qing.

"How did I catch them? Just like you all do." Lu Qing took the fishing rod from Xiao Yan's shoulder. "I picked a spot in the river ahead, and I didn't expect to catch two big fish. It was luck."

"Where exactly did you catch them?" a villager asked, his eyes shifting.

Hearing this, the other villagers looked at him with some disdain.

His intention was too obvious, not even bothering to hide it, trying to take advantage of a child.

The villager realized it was inappropriate and quickly laughed awkwardly, "I was just curious, don't tell me you're not curious."

Lu Qing, of course, understood the villager's intention but didn't care much. 

After all, even if he didn't say anything, they would definitely search the area later. The traces of where he set up the fishing spot couldn't be hidden.

So he directly said, "Not far ahead, but I advise you not to go there now."

"Why?" the villager blurted out.

"Because it's already a mess there. Now, not to mention big fish, there aren't even small fish left. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come back so soon," Lu Qing said half-truthfully.

The other villagers thought it made sense. 

Lu Qing caught two big fish, especially the one on the ground, which was astonishingly big. Catching such a big fish must have caused quite a commotion, scaring away the other fish.

But some villagers still held onto a glimmer of hope.

For example, the villager who asked Lu Qing about the fishing spot was determined to sneak over and check where exactly Lu Qing was fishing.

Lu Qing didn't care what these villagers thought. 

After all, he had said what he needed to say. If they didn't believe him and insisted on fishing there, he couldn't help it. And even if someone did go there, he didn't mind.

He didn't care about small fish, but as for big fish...

It wasn't that he looked down on these villagers, but with their skills, they couldn't possibly catch big fish. Even if a big fish bit the hook, their fragile fishing lines couldn't withstand the force of a big fish.

After resting for a while, Lu Qing felt his strength returning a bit.

"Everyone, Xiao Yan and I are heading back. You all continue fishing."

He said this and was about to lift the Blue Armored Fish.

Wang Da An quickly bent down to pick up the fish, "Didn't I say I would carry it? Lu Qing, you just carry the bucket. Wow, this big fish is really heavy, almost twenty pounds!"

Only when he actually picked up the Blue Armored Fish did Wang Da An realize it was even heavier than he had expected. He looked at Lu Qing in amazement, finding it hard to imagine how Lu Qing, with his small build, managed to catch such a big fish.

"Thank you, Brother Da An. When we get back, I'll treat you to some fish!"

Lu Qing didn't refuse. He was happy to have someone help.

"That sounds great! I've never eaten such a big fish before!" Wang Da An was delighted.

Watching Lu Qing and Xiao Yan walk towards the village, the remaining villagers looked at each other.

Suddenly, one villager shouted, "Forget fishing! Let's go back and watch the show!"

"Exactly, we've been here all morning and only caught a few small fish. We might as well go back and see how Lu Qing handles the fish!"

"I haven't seen enough of those two big fish. I need to take another look."

If the villagers had the patience to continue fishing before Lu Qing returned, seeing Lu Qing leave with two big fish made their mental state collapse.

They had been here for two or three days, yet they couldn't match Lu Qing's catch in just two hours. How could they reason with that?

Forget fishing!

With their mental state broken, the villagers packed up and prepared to return to the village.

Lu Qing and the others had just left not long ago, so if they hurried, they might catch up with them.

"Old Zhao, aren't you going back?"

While everyone was packing up, one person remained unmoved, still fishing there. 

Seeing this, the others asked.

"You all go back first. I'll fish for a bit longer. Maybe some fish will come."

The villager called Old Zhao, who had previously asked Lu Qing about the fishing spot, grinned.

"Fine, you keep fishing. But I think this spot has been fished out. Didn't you see how disdainful Lu Qing was of this place earlier?"

If they hadn't taken Lu Qing's fishing skills seriously before, thinking he caught so many small fish using some secret bait, no one dared to underestimate Lu Qing's fishing skills after seeing those two big fish.

Such big fish were impossible for them to catch.

In the past few days, several had tried to catch big fish, but all failed.

Either the fishing line broke, or the rod snapped. None managed to catch a big fish.

After packing up, everyone gradually left.

Only Old Zhao remained, fishing peacefully.

After a while, confirming no one could see him, Old Zhao suddenly jumped up, hurriedly packing his things.

"Fools, believing everything Lu Qing says. I don't believe he caught all the fish there!"

He then carried his things and ran towards the direction where Lu Qing and Xiao Yan had returned.
