Chapter 366: Chapter 247: It’s alright, no bodies have been thrown here_3
In fact, he didn’t use telekinesis, nor did he utilize emotion stimulation or any other extraordinary abilities to cheat. It was purely simple casting and retrieving of the line.
As for the perception ability that allowed him to see if there were any fish, it didn’t really have a significant impact on the overall fishing process.
Of course,
Chen Yun initially used this perception ability to find a good spot to fish, where there indeed were far more fish than in other places.
However, as the saying goes, a little peek isn’t really cheating.
Chen Yun believed that his exceptional skill was mainly due to persistence and effort.
So after a moment of reflection, Chen Yun decided to share his experience with Bai Shi.
From the impact of one’s mindset on fishing,
to paying attention to every subtle change in the float,
and controlling the strength and angle of the fishing rod.
Although Chen Yun was a novice at fishing as well,
he spoke with absolute authority.
He thoroughly explained the human factor which accounts for a crucial part of the sport in fishing.
In the midst of conversation, Chen Yun cast his line again.
It seemed that every movement was infused with an indescribable rhythm.
Bai Shi, encouraged by Chen Yun, also tried to adjust his own state, focusing more intently on the seemingly simple activity of fishing.
As time went by,
Bai Shi occasionally caught a few fish, and the anxiety on his face was progressively replaced by tranquility, seemingly beginning to enjoy the quiet and wait.
The lake surface shimmered with light.
The chatter of other fishermen around, the sporadic splashes of fish, and the calls of birds in the distant woods all wove together into a harmonious morning fishing scene.
Bai Shi’s heart, which had been slightly uneasy and anxious since the encounter with the assassin’s attack,
seemed to have calmed down at this moment.
To be honest,
he had always felt somewhat uneasy inside because of his plans to go abroad and take revenge on the drug lords and the assassin organization.
He always said he wasn’t afraid and was confident,
but truthfully, he was still a bit uneasy.
These were no small players.
The Golden Triangle drug lords and the Shadow Blade Assassin Organization were definitely not groups to be taken lightly.
The name Golden Triangle drug lords alone was enough to send chills down one’s spine.
They were entrenched along the borders of Southeast Asia in a mysterious area almost beyond the reach of the law, primarily engaged in cultivating, processing, and trafficking drugs.
Their terror lay not just in their significant impact on the global drug market, but also in their complex network of power and their ruthless methods of operation. Golden Triangle drug lords often colluded with local armed forces, possessed their own private armies with sophisticated equipment, and did not hesitate to use violence to maintain their illicit empire.
The Shadow Blade Assassin Organization, on the other hand, was an even more covert and deadly entity.
The organization, like a ghost in the shadows, had well-trained members who excelled in clandestine operations and possessed highly efficient assassination skills.
They undertook commissions from all over the world, be it political assassinations, corporate espionage, or gang vendettas. As long as the price was right, they would accomplish the task.
The Shadow Blade Assassin Organization’s horror lied in the elusiveness of its members and the precision and lethality of their actions. They could infiltrate the target’s life silently, using high-tech equipment and exquisite tactics, ensuring the target met their end without even realizing it.
In short, the Golden Triangle drug lords and the Shadow Blade Assassin Organization, one openly built an empire of sin with violence and money, while the other wove a web of death in the shadows with superb stealth techniques and cold execution ability.
Even someone like Bai Shi had to be cautious.
However, if he didn’t deal with them,
Bai Shi’s anxiety would only increase.
So, in fact, he had been very anxious since that assassin’s attack.
But now, having fished quietly for a while, Bai Shi felt that his heart had finally found a semblance of the peace that had been missing for so long.
This feeling of peace had been elusive.
He felt as if he had returned to those days in the orphanage, when he waited every day for mealtime.
That carefree feeling and the state of letting one’s thoughts drift seemed like something he hadn’t experienced in a long time.
Thinking of this,
Bai Shi couldn’t help but strike up a conversation with a laugh, "Fishing really is quite interesting; no wonder there are so many fishermen in the world."
"But I’ve heard that fishermen, along with dog walkers and hikers, are known as the three groups of people most likely to stumble upon a corpse in the wilderness."
Bai Shi chuckled and looked towards Chen Yun beside him.
Murderer: I need a place that is rarely visited by others, remote in landscape, with a large number of fish to help me quickly dispose of a body.
Fisherman: I need a place that is rarely visited by others, remote in landscape, with a large number of fish where I can enjoy fishing all by myself.
He thought this joke was rather amusing.
Just a little something to say for fun.
But Chen Yun’s response left him stunned for a moment, unsure of how to reply.
"It’s okay, no bodies have been dumped here."
"At least, not in the short term."
Chen Yun glanced at Bai Shi, who had told the joke, and said with deadpan seriousness.
With his extra-dimensional sense of smell,
he could indeed make such a deduction.
He could smell a bottle of red wine that was just brewed a year ago, the scent of hand sweat from the worker who had picked the grapes, and the fermentation smells from the subsequent series of processes.
This extra-dimensional sense of smell was nearly akin to directly reading the essential information of an object, as though flipping through an omniscient book that records all things in the world—an ability that defied all reason.
So,
he indeed could determine, based on his extra-dimensional sense of smell,
that at least within a year, no bodies had been dumped within a 600-meter radius.
Seeing Bai Shi speechless and at a loss for words,
Chen Yun allowed himself a mischievous smile.
Then he quietly continued to control the slight tremble of the fishing rod, making the bait hidden in the water look more like a lively little fish.
To ordinary people, what lies beneath the surface of the water is just a blur.
But to Chen Yun’s perception, this stretch of water spanning several hundred meters unfolded like a vivid scroll.
With his incredible perception ability, the underwater world came into sharp focus—the fine sand gently laid on the riverbed, occasionally stirred by the currents. The water plants swayed with the flow like a forest in the water. Colorful schools of fish darted around, they swam in groups or wandered alone.
Chen Yun didn’t miss the trajectory of each swimming fish or even the slightest emotional fluctuation.
He could feel the curiosity of the fish, circling around the bait, gently prodding it with their mouths, yet always maintaining a caution and not taking the bait too hastily.
A gentle smile played at the corners of Chen Yun’s mouth.
For him, the pleasure of fishing had long transcended simple gains.
It was more about this profound connection with nature and quietly observing the mysteries of life.
Time seemed to slow down at this moment.
Chen Yun felt as serene and tranquil as Bai Shi, as if his mood had been cleansed.
Right now, his state of mind had become extraordinarily peaceful, and all the noise of the outside world was blocked out of this small, tranquil space.
As the sun rose in the sky,
sunlight filtered through the sparse willow leaves, sprinkling warmth onto Chen Yun’s calm face.
Adding a touch of warmth to this tranquility.
His eyes were slightly closed, as if in agreement with the surrounding world, contently enjoying the peace.
This kind of tranquility, this feeling he had never experienced before,
was without a doubt what he liked and what he desired to experience.
