Chapter 141: Chapter 141 Familiar Steps and Procedures

Wang Lindong didn’t have time to ponder much.

Ye Chen took out a series of absurd items from the agricultural trike.

Yellow paper, copper furnace, Peach Wood Sword, compass, Black dog blood and so on...

Didn’t these items look like they were for performing rituals?

At that moment, the roar of an engine sounded.

Wang Lindong was immediately drawn to the noise.

He wished he hadn’t looked—that glance nearly scared the daylights out of the man!

The source of the roar was, of course, the massive tower crane parked by the artificial lake.

At this moment, a fat and dark man, resembling a lump of coal, was hanging from the crane’s hook.

Strictly speaking, he wasn’t tied up; rather, he was suspended using something similar to a stunt wire used in movies, leaving the coal-like man dangling there.

This middle-aged man could move his limbs freely without being too restrained.

Dangling mid-air, his position could only be controlled by the tower crane operator.

Wang Lindong squinted his eyes, fixating on the middle-aged man on the hook, finding him somewhat familiar...

The next second!

Wang Lindong remembered!

Wasn’t this guy none other than Cui Ruogou?

Ye Chen isn’t really planning to use the tower crane’s hook to fish for the giant python, is he?

Wang Lindong saw it, and so naturally did the onlooking crowd at Jinbao Residential Complex.

Despite the somewhat nerve-wracking scene, as soon as they saw Cui Ruogou flailing his limbs midair like a turtle, many people couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Soon, with the slow movement of the tower crane’s arm,

Cui Ruogou, hung from the hook, was gradually moved over the artificial lake.

After constant adjustments by the tower crane, he was suspended about three meters above the lake’s surface.

Coincidentally, his current position was directly facing Ye Chen on the opposite shore, about five or six meters away.

The only difference was that Ye Chen was sitting by the lakeside.

Whereas Cui Ruogou was hovering over the artificial lake.

Since he was opposite Ye Chen, Cui Ruogou also appeared in Ye Chen’s live stream footage.

Seeing Cui Ruogou’s miserable state, the viewers in the live stream room were already in stitches laughing.

Out of nowhere, Ye Chen shouted discontentedly, "Old Liao, do you even know how to drive?"

"It’s too high, how am I supposed to lure out the python? Lower it!"

Then, a familiar voice was heard, "Shut up! I used to be a professional tower crane operator, you think I don’t know how to operate?"

Who else could this voice belong to if not Old Liao?

As soon as he finished, the roaring sound of the machinery started.

And Cui Ruogou, suspended in mid-air, began to descend rapidly.

"Splash!"

The next second, Cui Ruogou’s legs actually touched the surface of the artificial lake, causing no small ripples.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

Instantly, a scream like that of a pig being slaughtered rang out across the lake.

Following that, a shout came from the tower crane that sounded all too familiar to the live stream viewers.

"I’ll be damned!"

"I haven’t touched this thing in over twenty years, got a bit rusty and exerted too much force!"

Ye Chen sighed, giving the crane cabin a disdainful glare, "Old Liao, are you up to this or not?"

"If that python really comes out later and you accidentally drop Cui Ruogou into the lake and then pull him up, I’m afraid what’s left will be just a rope..."

Old Liao inside the crane operator’s cabin chuckled: "That was just a mistake!"

"Besides, didn’t we get insurance for Cui Ruogou?"

Having said that, Old Liao’s head started to sway the mechanical arm again.

"Squeak..."

After a sound, Cui Ruogou was raised from the surface of the artificial lake into the air.

Cui Ruogou, hanging on the hook, was furious and pointed at Ye Chen, shouting: "Ye Chen, you’re explicitly seeking revenge! Damn you!"

"I really don’t believe you can fish up a giant python!"

At this moment, Ye Chen on the shore seemed as if he hadn’t heard Cui Ruogou’s shouts; he turned his head and took out a brand-new fishing rod.

At the same time, he held the prepared joss paper in his hand and shouted: "The auspicious hour has arrived!"

Although Ye Chen’s voice was not loud, it had a particular penetrating power, and the few words reached the ears of everyone present.

Instantly, the area around the artificial lake in Jinbao Community became quiet.

Even Cui Ruogou, who was suspended above the artificial lake, was stunned and shut his mouth.

Ye Chen then lit the yellow joss paper in his hand, but this time he didn’t throw it into the copper basin; instead, he scattered it mid-air, the ash and debris blowing onto Cui Ruogou’s face with the wind.

At the same time, Ye Chen took out the fishing rod, which seemed to be made of an unusual material, and pointed it at Cui Ruogou on the artificial lake.

He gently closed his eyes, muttering to himself.

"This man is extraordinary, far from ordinary, far from ordinary."

"To catch the giant python, it must be him, no one else."

"The sacrifice ceremony begins, arise!"

The sacrifice ceremony begins???

Hearing these words, Cui Ruogou suspended above the artificial lake had a severe change in expression.

In fact, when he was first hung up by the hoist on the crane, he was not the least bit frightened in his heart.

He even felt somewhat lucky.

Because previously, he thought he would indeed be tightly tied to the hook as that bastard Ye Chen had said.

But now, only his waist was fixed, and his limbs could still move.

So, Cui Ruogou thought he could have a relatively larger range of movement, which made him feel much safer.

But just before, the crane’s hook suddenly plummeted, causing most of Cui Ruogou’s body to be immersed in the artificial lake.

He couldn’t help but realize the seriousness of the situation.

He could be in mortal danger!

After all, no one knows exactly where the giant python, reportedly capable of swallowing an entire bull, is in the artificial lake.

According to the property management personnel of the community, there had been a professional fishing team on the lake for the past three days.

To avoid detection, the giant python may choose not to hunt, implying it must be starving after several days in the lake.

And under such circumstances, if this "bait" were discovered by the giant python.

Then wouldn’t that be terrible?

Wouldn’t it just burst out of the water and swallow him whole?

That was one of the reasons why Cui Ruogou had just screamed!

If it were just that, then so be it.

What made Cui Ruogou mentally curse was.

He originally thought the crane driver would be a professional operator.

But looking through the transparent glass and seeing the person in the cabin, Cui Ruogou was completely speechless.

Isn’t that none other than the old man called Old Liao who always follows Ye Chen fishing, the one who likes to yell "Grab yer ma"?
