Lei Xihuan almost ran to the fish pond as if he were flying, without even giving Ye Tianlong a chance to explain. ●⌒

What he was most concerned about now was his fish pond. The fish pond showed results the fastest and could help him alleviate a significant financial pressure. If something went wrong, he couldn't bear such a loss.

He ran all the way to the fish pond but found nothing wrong. Occasionally, a few fish poked their heads out of the water to breathe the air at the surface.

There were no dead fish floating in the pond as he had feared.

Everything looked perfectly normal.

When Ye Tianlong and Annie finally ran over, out of breath, Lei Xihuan scratched his head and said, "Brother Ye, nothing's wrong?"

"There is, something big, really big," Ye Tianlong said with a serious face. "Xihuan, just wait and see."

He ran back to the shed and brought out a large basin filled with fish feed that didn't look very appetizing.

This fish feed was different from what you could buy directly from the market. It was carefully prepared by Ye Tianlong and fed to the fish in the pond once a week.

"This is made from flour, gluten, noodles, corn, sweet potatoes, raw fatty meat, and some fish intestines," Ye Tianlong explained as he held the large basin.

"Ah, fish eat their own companions' intestines?" Annie asked curiously.

"Most fish, except for silver carp, like to eat them," Ye Tianlong said as he placed the large basin on the boat. "I've been trying to figure out why the fish in this pond grow so fast, so I've been improving the feed... Come on, you'll see what happens in a moment."

Lei Xihuan followed him onto the boat.

But Annie, still traumatized from her previous fall into the sea, hesitated for a moment before tentatively and nervously stepping onto the boat with Lei Xihuan's encouragement.

Lei Xihuan had no idea what Ye Tianlong wanted him to see.

When they reached the center of the fish pond, Ye Tianlong shushed them, "Don't talk for a moment, and don't be afraid no matter what you see."

This... Could there be a water monster in this fish pond?

This thought popped into both Lei Xihuan's and Annie's minds simultaneously.

They held their breath, eager to see what was happening.

Ye Tianlong scooped up a handful of fish feed and evenly scattered it into the water.

The fish pond was eerily quiet, and not a single fish came to eat.

This was already abnormal.

Usually, when feeding the fish, the feed would be scattered, and large groups of fish would rush to grab it.

Fish are very insensitive to hunger and fullness, especially those without stomachs, which would swarm to the feed no matter how much they had just eaten.

Predatory fish with stomachs are also quite insensitive to hunger and fullness.

But Ye Tianlong's carefully prepared feed had been thrown in, and the fish...?

Ten acres of fish pond, where had all the fish gone?

After about 30 seconds, the fish pond suddenly changed.

Something seemed to be making a lot of noise underwater, and then the surface began to form many large and small whirlpools.

What was underwater?

Could there really be a water monster?

A moment later, "splash," a large jet of water shot out, followed by a huge black shadow.

What? What the hell is this?

Annie was almost scared to scream.

Lei Xihuan quickly held her hand, which slightly calmed her down.

Not just Annie, but Lei Xihuan himself was extremely tense.

The black shadow was about 1.5 meters long and incredibly large.

Lei Xihuan couldn't figure out when such a monster had appeared in his fish pond.

Suddenly, the black shadow surfaced and swept away all the feed.

Lei Xihuan's mouth dropped open in shock.

This... This...

Hu... Hu fish!

Was he seeing things? A 1.5-meter-long, at least 150-pound hu fish!

Hu fish can indeed grow to over 100 pounds, but it's extremely rare.

This hu fish, by visual estimation, weighed over 150 pounds.

Even Dong Shanbei and the fish farmer, Mr. Sun, who had been raising fish for most of his life, had never seen one.

And this "hu fish" was different from other hu fish.

Its color was extremely bright, with a well-developed dorsal fin, the front part being hard spines, and the back part being large and round.

It had a large mouth with sharp teeth, a wide body, and a short tail. When it swam, it was colorful, and its dorsal fin looked like a crown, with sharp fin bones like weapons. It looked like a fully armored warrior on the battlefield.

Its appearance was fierce and handsome, and when it swam in the water, it exuded an overwhelming aura.

After finishing the feed, the hu fish, still not fully satisfied, flipped over, causing the water to ripple, and then quickly resurfaced.

Lei Xihuan saw very clearly that it had already eaten two carp, each at least 20 centimeters long.

Hu fish are aggressive, and carp and silver carp are their food. This is why, in addition to raising hu fish, the pond also had many carp and silver carp.

When the feed was sufficient, the hu fish wouldn't cause large-scale predation on the carp and silver carp. But if they were hungry and the feed wasn't timely, the carp and silver carp could become their food.

But such a large hu fish, how many fish would it eat in one bite?

Not to mention carp and hu fish, even the equally aggressive black fish would only flee at the sight of it.

Ye Tianlong poured the entire large basin of specially prepared feed into the water, and the big hu fish ate it all, finally returning to the bottom of the pond, satisfied.

The surface of the water finally calmed down...

"Ye... Brother Ye... What the hell is this?" Lei Xihuan was still in shock.

"Shou... Should be... A hu fish... I guess..." Even Ye Tianlong, with his rich fish farming experience, couldn't be sure.

Annie asked a question, "Does it eat people?"

Lei Xihuan and Ye Tianlong almost laughed. Who had ever heard of a hu fish eating people?

But their smiles quickly froze.

A hu fish wouldn't eat people, but what about such a large one?

Now it was full, but what if it was hungry and someone fell into the water?

"I never noticed it before," Ye Tianlong tried to calm himself. "When I first fed the fish, I didn't see it. Later, when I prepared the feed I just used, it appeared as soon as I threw it in. It seems to be interested only in this type of feed."

Lei Xihuan suddenly thought of something: "It's so big, and it doesn't eat the regular feed. What does it eat? Could it be the fish we put in the pond?"

Thinking about this, his heart sank.

How many fish must this hu fish have eaten to grow so large?

But Ye Tianlong said, "I've thought about it, but I know exactly how many fish are in this pond. It definitely doesn't live on these fish. The two carp it ate just now might not have been enough to satisfy it, just a momentary craving."

What did it rely on to grow so large?

The essence of Little Fat? Lei Xihuan's heart suddenly stirred.

This time, he was right. This strange hu fish was indeed a product of Little Fat's essence.

That day, Little Fat injected a drop of its essence into the ten-acre fish pond, benefiting the entire pond.

The water in the pond was infused with the dragon's spiritual energy, and the constant flow of water caused some of the energy to condense and quietly gather in one corner of the pond.

This hu fish was undoubtedly the lucky one among all the fish.

It accidentally swam to the corner where the essence had condensed and absorbed some of the spiritual energy, resulting in a rapid and dramatic growth in size without needing to eat.

This was just a part of Little Fat's essence!

When other fish discovered the benefits of this corner, the hu fish had already grown so large that no one dared to approach it.

When the hu fish finally grew to its full size and the corner no longer provided spiritual energy, it "emerged."

It was ready to feast, but just as it was about to, Ye Tianlong came to feed the fish.

The hu fish tasted the feed and found it delicious, losing interest in eating other fish.

Ye Tianlong was scared and quickly notified Lei Xihuan.

The hu fish, waiting impatiently for more feed, was about to start a massacre in the pond when the delicious food appeared again.

It ate until it was full and had no interest in eating more, returning to the bottom of the pond to rest.

Only three people, standing on the surface, were left in shock.

Lei Xihuan, though he guessed that the strange hu fish was related to Little Fat's essence, couldn't imagine the complex process unless Little Fat could speak.

"Brother Ye, you need to do something now," Lei Xihuan was the first to recover. "Make more of the feed you just used. I think the fish is full, but you need to time it. When it's about to eat again, immediately feed it. I don't want it to eat all the fish in my pond..."

Ye Tianlong nodded in agreement, which was also his biggest concern.

Lei Xihuan finished his instructions and made a call: "Hello, please call Dong Shanbei... Grandpa Dong, it's me, Lei Xihuan. Are you free now? Good, I'll send someone to pick you up..."

As soon as he hung up, Annie understood and asked where Dong Shanbei lived, quickly going to get her car.

After a moment, he called Mr. Sun: "...It's Lei Xihuan. Hey, Mr. Sun, are you free now? If you are, please come to Xiantao Village... No, no, it's best to come now. I promise you won't regret it... I can't explain it over the phone, but you'll see when you come. Alright, I'll wait for you..."

After the call, he couldn't help but look at the fish pond again, but it was quiet. Who would have thought that such a large monster was hiding in this seemingly ordinary fish pond?

"Xihuan," Ye Tianlong said cautiously, "This is a strange fish, a really strange fish. They say the feng shui of Xiantao Village is bad. Could we have offended something? Should I call someone to check?"

"Bad feng shui?" Lei Xihuan suddenly laughed. "I think we might get rich!"

Lei Xihuan felt that he might really get rich. (A great event where the sky drops pies, and cool phones are waiting for you!
