"Fisherman? I don't know you."

Cow-Horse shook his head.

"That's the person in the photo you gave me."

"That was given to me by Napoleon, you have to ask it."

Oxhead said.

"Can you give it a call for me?"

"You kid are really troublesome."

Cow-Horse muttered and took out his mobile phone.

"If you fart, hurry up, I'm busy."

The voice of White-Feather Chicken sounded.

"I'm not looking for you, it's my little brother looking for you."

Cow-Horse gave the phone to Liu Zheng.

"Human, what do you want from me?"

White-Feather Chicken's tone became much colder.

"That's right, I met a person named Fisherman in Sewer."

"He seems to know you, and asked you if you want to tear up the agreement and start a new war with him."

Liu Zheng said.

"When will I break the agreement? Human, you won't go to his fishing grounds, right?"

White-Feather Chicken asked.

"I don't know about this. Anyway, the fish there are quite fat."

"That's his fishing ground. Did you catch a fish?"

White-Feather Chicken asked excitedly.

"Caught, but not quite."

"I originally caught a Giant-Mouthed Whale, and a Three Bamboo of the same genus. In the end, they merged into a fish-man."

Liu Zheng looked at Four-in-One Fishman on the ground and said.

"Hahaha!!!"

White-Feather Chicken laughed wildly, Cow-Horse closed his ears in disgust.

"Human, you did a good job, a good job!"

"I originally thought you were Cow-Horse's illegitimate son, but now it seems that it makes sense for him to be so protective of you. You are a lucky general."

"You are his illegitimate son."

Cow-Horse cursed on the side.

"Ask Cow-Horse to bring me the fish immediately."

White-Feather Chicken urged.

"Boss, Napoleon, please help me send the fish over."

"I heard it. You're so stupid Napoleon. I'll put the diluted liquid into the fish's mouth later."

Cow-Horse cursed and picked up Four-in-One Fishman and went out.

"Human, this fish means a lot to me. Epoch Acorn I will ask Cow-Horse to bring it to you. You can also make a request."

White-Feather Chicken said.

"Can I keep it first?"

Liu Zheng thought for a while and said.

There is nothing he urgently needs right now.

"Okay. By the way, did you just ask me about Fisherman?"

"Yes."

He nodded.

"I'm not particularly clear about his origins. I just know that he has many fishing grounds in Sewer."

"His fishing ground occupies the most elite section of the Sewer, and the fish he raises are all fat and tender."

White-Feather Chicken said.

"Then why don't you just go to him and buy Giant-Mouthed Whale?"

"It's too late. That guy is mentally ill and always only ships goods once in a while. He won't sell them no matter how much money he gives before notifying him."

"When I first became executive chef, I had a bad temper, so I had an encounter with him because of this."

"I robbed fish from three of his fishing grounds, and he killed more than 20 of my men. The feud is settled."

"Later, I sabotaged his fishery every three days. He killed my people when he saw them and refused to sell me any fish. After a stalemate for a period of time, someone fell in love and we signed an armistice agreement."

White-Feather Chicken introduced the whole story.

"That's it."

No wonder Fisherman asked Liu Zheng if it was White-Feather Chicken who sent him.

From this point of view, Fisherman obviously did not let him go because of White-Feather Chicken.

Could it be Ghost Hand again?

"Okay, I'm going to be busy."

White-Feather Chicken hung up the phone.

After waiting for a while, Cow-Horse also came back.

"Here you go."

It spat out a round fruit towards Liu Zheng.

"Name: Epoch Acorn"

"Type: prop"

"Quality: Excellent"

"Effect 1: Recover damage caused by unnatural passage of time."

"Effect 2: If the player owns an Elf (except non-natural elves) or Plant Bloodline, the bloodline will evolve."

"Note: Don't let the squirrels see it!"

"Can copies be taken out: Yes"

Items that are quite targeted may be of more than perfect quality for some players, but for most players they are not even of excellent quality.

Using Four-in-One Fishman to exchange for this thing is definitely a loss in terms of price alone.

But it was originally booked by French Plane Tree, so it doesn't matter.

"Oh, there are also these. Salmon asked me to give them to you."

Cow-Horse spit out another bag.

Liu Zheng When I opened the bag, I saw a lot of palm-sized dried fish inside.

All are of ordinary quality, and their effects are to restore physical strength.

The remark is a bit interesting.

"The dried fish made as a token of gratitude is filled with the kindness of the maker and the malice of its owner."

With these small dried fish, he no longer has to ask Cow-Horse for canned food.

Although its stock has probably been consumed by him.

"Speaking of which, when are you going to use Sick Leave Slip?"

Cow-Horse asked.

"I won't wait for you forever."

"It won't be used today anyway."

Liu Zheng sighed.

"Why?"

"Fisherman asked me to pick up his daughter."

"Huh?"

Cow-Horse I didn't feel sleepy immediately.

"Is his daughter ugly?"

"On the contrary, beautiful by human standards."

"Oh, that's really ugly."

Cow-Horse nodded.

"Looks don't matter, I'm face-blind anyway. The main thing is that he doesn't even know what his daughter likes, so it's very difficult."

Liu Zheng shook his head slightly.

"What are you afraid of? If you don't get a chance to win, then the overlord will use his bow."

Cow-Horse encouraged.

"Boss, do you have any misunderstanding about my strength?"

Fisherman alone can tie up with the entire Kitchen. What kind of trouble can his daughter be?

"You are so cowardly and still want to pick up girls? I think back when I was chasing my wife, I just had to have a direct confrontation with her."

Cow-Horse puffed up his chest.

"Then it was successful?"

"Then I was raped by her overlord."

"Xu~~~"

Liu Zheng made a long hissing sound.

"The process is not the point, the results are the same anyway."

"Okay, okay."

Crunch.

The trap door was pushed open, and Ghost Hand sneaked in quietly.

This time it did not arrive in front of Liu Zheng. Instead, it placed the takeout order at the door and prepared to sneak away.

Liu Zheng took a quick step and blocked the exit.

Ghost Hand froze in place, a little at a loss.

"Alas."

He sighed at the ceiling and motioned to Ghost Hand to wait a moment.

Although Ghost Hand's behavior this time was too reckless, the result was indeed good, and he couldn't help but express it at all.

But it was impossible to give him alcohol. Another alcoholic attack would definitely scare him into having a heart attack.

Liu Zheng took out a can of drink from the cabinet, squatted down and handed it to Ghost Hand.

Ghost Hand didn't answer immediately.

He put the drink into its palm, and Ghost Hand opened his mouth and swallowed it.

It patted Liu Zheng on the shoulder and walked out of the lounge.

Liu Zheng noticed that there was an X-shaped wound on the back of its hand.

Golden lava rolled inside, burning the wound and preventing it from healing.

"He's not dead. Isn't this guy a relative of the mayor?"

Cow-Horse came over.

"Is that the wound?"

"That's right."

Cow-Horse nodded.

It said last time that Si Xue likes to take a golden bath.

The topic ends here.

Liu Zheng picked up the takeout order and looked at the content on it.

"Meal: Sour Fish-and-Vegetable Dish"

"Address: 'Red Witch' board game store"

"Order: Sea Woman"

"Time limit: twelve hours."

"Twelve hours? Crazy?"

Cow-Horse on the side almost dropped his jaw in shock.

It doesn't even dare to think about how much extra money it would cost for such a long delivery time. It is probably enough to buy a scalper ticket of Paradise Island.

"Never underestimate a father's determination not to let his daughter marry Blondie."

"Gone."

Liu Zheng carries the takeout box.

"What for?"

"According to orders to pick up girls."
