Chapter 258: Brown Leather Briefcase

Chapter 258: Chapter 258: Brown Leather Briefcase

At the same time, Liao Xuexue watched in confusion as Ye Chen cast the mud-covered hook into the pond.

Could it be that Teacher Ye has been stimulated and simply chooses to give up, using mud as fishing bait?

No...

That’s not right...

Liao Xuexue, who was closest to Ye Chen, could still perceive his demeanor.

At this moment, Ye Chen seemed utterly uninterested in the defamation video that Cui Ruogou had released about him.

He appeared as if...

Something else, something more important, had caught his attention.

What could it be?

Fishing?

Couldn’t be, could it?

At this point, something that confused Liao Xuexue even more happened.

Ye Chen turned his head, a strange smile on his face as he looked towards Liao Xuexue.

As the sun set, the sky was ablaze with the fiery clouds, and the crimson sunset reflected on Ye Chen’s face.

For a moment, Liao Xuexue couldn’t help but get goosebumps all over her body and asked, "Ye... Teacher Ye, is something the matter?"

Could it be that this guy saw those comments from earlier, was hit hard by them, and is now not in his right mind?

At this time, a very familiar line came out of Ye Chen’s mouth.

"Miss, wanna make a bet with me?"

Liao Xuexue’s eyes twitched violently, and she almost staggered and fell to the ground.

Upon hearing this, Old Man Liao hurriedly shouted, louder than Liao Xuexue could speak, "Xuexue, don’t make a bet with this guy!"

After hearing her grandfather’s words, Liao Xuexue also looked at Ye Chen with caution.

She shook her head and said decidedly, "No bets, no bets!"

Ye Chen sighed in resignation: "Alright, it seems you and your grandfather are truly scared."

"Teacher Ye, are you planning to catch something good?"

"Yeah, Teacher Ye, what’s with the secrecy? What can you catch with mud this time?"

"Last time Teacher Ye used a pack of cigarettes to lure up Cui Ruogou, are you planning on catching the Earth God with a clump of mud this time?"

The elderly men of the Jiang City River team were baffled by Ye Chen’s sudden bait switch to using a lump of earth, and for a time, everyone was discussing fervently among themselves.

As for Ye Chen, a mysterious smile played across the corners of his mouth.

That’s right!

With this lump of earth, naturally, he was aiming to catch the chest of gold in the pond.

After activating the "Feed Master" skill, according to the system’s prompt, the system instructed Ye Chen to use the soil from the ground as bait.

Soon, Ye Chen figured it out; perhaps it’s the interaction of the five elements - metal is overcome by wood, earth overcomes metal. He was playing with the five elements!

As for Deng Long, who was watching Ye Chen’s live stream in the live stream room, his eyes were also narrow.

"What is this kid up to?"

"Using mud as fishing bait?"

"That’s not right..."

"Whatever this kid catches in a bit is definitely not going to be a fish!"

Having watched Ye Chen’s live streams for a while, Deng Long had gained some experience.

Thus, he was certain that Ye Chen was certainly up to something again soon.

For a moment, he couldn’t help but admire Ye Chen’s composure.

Online, Cui Ruogou had been defaming Ye Chen in a video, causing many netizens to question him in the live stream room.

Yet, Ye Chen could remain completely indifferent, still calmly and composedly fishing... catching things here!

This Hua Country Fishing King, after seeing this kid, even felt somewhat ashamed.

On the other hand...

Live at the Golden Peak Mountain Pond.

About five minutes had passed, and the elderly men around were becoming a bit impatient.

Suddenly, they heard old man Liao shout loudly.

"Oh my god!"

"The float’s gone under!"

"Mr. Ye’s float has gone under!"

Old man Liao’s voice instantly drew everyone’s attention.

"Whoosh!"

Along with a pleasant sound of the line being cut, Ye Chen’s fishing rod bent gracefully.

Ye Chen also lifted the corner of his mouth, gripping the fishing rod tightly, ready to reel in today’s main target.

When the old men at the scene saw that Ye Chen could even make the float go under with mud, they were dumbfounded.

"Holy sh*t! Mr. Ye really is the Fishing Saint! Using mud as fishing bait and still making the float go under?"

"Absolutely terrifying. But this time after Mr. Ye’s float went under, there was no bending curve in the fishing rod, which proves..."

"Proves that what Mr. Ye caught isn’t a living thing? Oh my! What could it be then? A dead body?"

"Have you ever seen such a light dead body? Judging by the bend of Mr. Ye’s fishing rod, whatever is in the water shouldn’t be heavy!"

Indeed, compared to the approximately fifty-pound alligator turtle that Ye Chen had caught earlier.

This time, the bending amplitude of Ye Chen’s fishing rod was significantly smaller.

Just as everyone on the spot and the viewers in the live stream room were guessing what Mr. Ye would catch this time.

Ye Chen sharply jerked the rod upward.

Immediately!

A brown genuine leather suitcase, covered with moss and wrapped in mud, was pulled up to their cliff from underneath the pond’s surface.

"A suitcase?"

"What’s this thing!"

"This couldn’t be an antique, could it?"

"It doesn’t look like an antique, isn’t this suitcase just a style from the last century?"

"You don’t say, we actually have a similar suitcase at home!"

"I thought it was something special, turns out it’s just a broken suitcase!"

"Mr. Ye, you’ve really messed up this time!"

"Yeah, Mr. Ye, you can’t claim this thing as an antique, can you?"

"Mr. Ye is really something else, besides fish, he can catch anything!"

"Oh well, we are already used to it. Isn’t it standard practice for Mr. Ye to not catch fish?"

...

Actually, not only the small team of old men at the bank of Jiang City River were puzzled.

The millions of viewers in the live stream room were also completely baffled.

After all, the things Mr. Ye had caught before, which one wasn’t more interesting than this broken suitcase?

"A suitcase? What Mr. Ye caught this time seems pretty average!"

"Indeed, I remember when I went fishing before, I caught such a suitcase, isn’t it quite common?"

"Hiss, looking at the moss and mud on it, this suitcase seems to have been soaked in the pond for a long time?"

"Probably, but even if it has been soaked for a long time, this thing isn’t an antique. It doesn’t look valuable."

"What antique, this thing is just a last-century style suitcase, nothing to talk about."

"Did Mr. Ye catch the wrong thing?"

"Yeah, got excited for nothing, I thought Mr. Ye would catch something amazing after he changed his bait!"

"Tsk tsk, this streamer is really disappointing, he’s supposedly the top prank-fishing streamer on the internet, I even stood up when he changed his bait, only to see this..."

While saying that, there were still quite a few trolls in the live stream room urging Ye Chen to make a statement about the video release matter concerning Cui Ruogou.
