Chapter 20: Ray
"What the hell is this?"

The trap was full of river sand mixed with some small shrimps. Not to mention the big ones, not even a big fish could be seen.

Su Mu put away the trap, poured out all the river sand inside, and released the small shrimps.

He planned to weave a few more traps and cast a wider net.

Su Mu found a kind of rattan on the shore. This rattan was light purple in color, soft in texture, and highly plastic, making it suitable for weaving cages.

He used the mat weaving method and more than a dozen wisteria strips to quickly weave five ground cages.

It has to be said that Su Mu is indeed very accomplished in craftsmanship. The design is compact, the structure is solid, and it looks very marketable.

Su Mu carried five traps and came to the shallower waters. He rolled up his trouser legs and came to the place with the most silk grass. Generally, this is where fish like to stay.

He placed the five traps very skillfully. After doing all this, Su Mu continued to do his own thing.

The next day.

Su Mu got up early and came to the Sicao waters to see if there was any big catch today.

The first trap was just like yesterday, full of river sand and shrimps. I was very disappointed.

When I lifted up the second cage, I found a spicy strip with tattoos on it. Sure enough, as long as we put up the ground trap, it is easy to catch water snakes!

This water snake was so common that Su Mu let it go.

The third cage and the fourth cage were empty, there was nothing in them.

There was only one cage left. Su Mu picked it up nervously, only to find that it was still full of silt and river sand.

rough!
Is it possible that we need the air force again? ?

At this time, Su Mu discovered that there was movement in the mud and there was something inside!

He picked it up, came to the shore, and after pouring out the silt, he found a round, pancake-shaped, octopus-like mollusk curled up in a ball.

octopus??
No, not like an octopus.

After taking a closer look, I discovered that it was a stingray!
The spotted ray is also called boss fish, plow fish, pot cover fish, and tiger color.

They usually live on the sandy bottom in colder sea areas, often buried shallowly in the sand with their eyes and blowholes exposed. They lurk during the day and move around at night to forage for food.

Su Mu was quite knowledgeable about fish, so he was able to identify them quickly based on their characteristics.

This stingray is about 40 centimeters long and 20 centimeters wide. Normally, the appearance of a stingray is brown, but this one is purple-red.

For some reason, Su Mu felt that this stingray looked attractive and planned to make a contract with it.

[Is it a contract? ]

"Yes"

As Su Mu's mind moved, he and Kong Yu instantly established a spiritual connection.

Kong Yu, who was still trembling in the last second, cast a kind look towards Su Mu in this second.

Su Mu put Kong Yu in the water and said, "Go ahead. If you find any good treasures, bring them to me."

After saying this, the stingray just stayed where it was, looking a little dazed.

Looks a bit unintelligent.

The ray stayed still for several seconds, as if confirming something, before slowly sinking to the bottom of the river.

Although I didn't catch anything big today, I did catch a stingray, so it wasn't a complete loss.

Su Mu buried the trap in the water again.

There are many precious fish in this river, so of course Su Mu has to make use of them.

[Congratulations, you have repaired a gap in the river, Favor Points +50]

[Congratulations, you saved a fish entangled by water plants, Favor Points +10]

[Congratulations, you helped the stranded turtle, favor points +15]

[Congratulations, today is another peaceful day. Due to your meritorious service in garrisoning, you will receive extra Favor Points! Favor Points +100] Today's luck is very good, and a full Favor Points have been credited to your account.

Su Mu, who was repairing a gap in the river bank, felt the spiritual induction and walked towards a water area downstream.

When we got to the shore, we saw the stingray floating on the river.

After Su Mu came, Kong Yu turned over with a green sapling in its mouth.

"Is this your gift to me?"

Su Mu took the green sapling and planned to look it up and down.

Are there any seedlings growing in rivers?

He put it close to his nose and sniffed it, he could smell a peculiar fragrance that filled his nasal cavity. For a moment he felt relaxed and happy, and his whole body felt extremely refreshed.

Su Mu's eyes lit up.

What a baby!
Careful Su Mu discovered a one-centimeter-deep blood hole on the left abdomen of Kong Yu, so he used the Favor Point to treat it.

[Do you want to spend 20 favor points for treatment? ]

"Yes"

The next second, the blood hole began to recover.

Feeling the changes in his body, Kong Yu seemed to be stunned again. His pair of dark eyes stared at Su Mu.

"Go and play."

It didn't leave slowly until Su Mu spoke.

Su Mu came to the stone house with the green sapling, having had experience from previous times.

He planned not to boil it in water, but to swallow it directly in one gulp and then refine it slowly.

After he swallowed it in one gulp, he sat on the ground and began to meditate.

next second.

Su Mu's face turned red. No matter how he practiced his skills, he couldn't digest the green sapling. Moreover, the sapling seemed to start growing in his stomach!

He felt nauseous and then vomited out the sapling.

The moment the sapling fell to the ground, it was buried in the soil in just three seconds.

The sapling has taken root and started to grow!

In just one hour, it had grown taller than Su Mu himself.

The next day, when Su Mu woke up, he found a willow tree in front of his stone house!
The trunk of the tree is as thick as a person can hug, and the tree is three meters tall. The crown is wide enough to cover Su Mu's stone house completely, with emerald green willow branches emitting a faint green fluorescence hanging down.

In just one night, a willow sapling grew into a towering tree!
This willow tree seemed to have intelligence, and a willow branch fell in front of Su Mu.

The next second, the willow branch broke automatically and fell into Su Mu's hand.

He held the willow branch tightly and found that it contained immense energy!
Su Mu held the willow branch in his hand and without using any skills, he gently whipped at a shield in front of him.

Han——

With a shattering sound, the extremely solid [Captain America's Shield] instantly broke into two halves!

This shield was won in a lottery some time ago. He had tested it himself and found that it had extremely high defensive power. However, it was easily shattered into pieces. It shows how powerful it is!
The most important thing is that he didn't use any spiritual power, it was just an ordinary pull.

"Suitable for use as a weapon."

Su Mu looked at the willow branch in his hand and said in surprise.

Suddenly, another willow branch dropped from the willow tree and landed in front of Su Mu.

There is something growing on this willow branch.

"What the hell is this?"
