Chapter 9: The Little Dolphin Traveling Through the Worlds
"What the hell is this?"

Su Mu picked up a black iron ball spit out by the little eel. It looked like a marble he played with as a child, except it was made of iron.

“Is this a treasure?”

"You just picked up a piece of iron from the bottom of the river and came here?"

Su Mu threw the iron bead to the shore and said, "Little guy, how about this, you catch me some edible precious fish."

The next second, the little eel understood, nodded, and dived into the water again.

[Favor Points +5]

When the system informed him that he had gained 5 favor points, Su Mu was overjoyed.

It seems that it was right to make a contract with the water beast.

Su Mu stood up, brushed the dust off his hands, and went back to take a nap.

He did not blame the little eel. Although he had contracted it and it could understand what he said, its intelligence should not be very high, otherwise it would not have brought some scrap metal from the bottom of the river to him as if it were treasure.

Su Mu had just laid down when he felt a spiritual connection coming from the river. He stood up again and found that the little eel had returned.

A white silver dragon fish came out of its mouth.

"What a beautiful silver dragon fish!"

Su Mu caught it and looked at it carefully, and found that this silver dragon fish had beautiful color, light golden pupils, and each fin reflected a silvery-white luster.

"Well done, this is a precious fish."

"Go ahead and find a few more!"

After receiving Su Mu's praise, the little eel looked very happy. It circled in the water and then dived into the river again.

Su Mu used the silver dagger he won in the lottery to cut open the belly of the silver dragon fish. After cleaning out all the internal organs, he came to his stone house and continued to build a simple barbecue grill with pebbles on the shore and skewered them with wooden sticks.

He found some dry firewood and dead leaves, gathered spiritual power at his fingertips, ignited the spiritual fire, and used the spiritual fire to light the dry firewood again.

Just like that, Su Mu hummed a little tune and sprinkled seasonings.

Ever since he drew [Huang Rong's Kitchen Utensils], Su Mu has no shortage of cooking tools, including pots, pans, sauces, vinegar, oils and tea.

"The skin of this silver dragon fish is really thick."

"It's been roasted for so long, but it's not even browned at all."

After Su Mu roasted the silver dragon fish with spiritual fire for a full half hour, the fish began to change color.

An hour later, the oil was sizzling and the fragrance was overflowing. Su Mu swallowed his saliva unconsciously.

"Soul juice, pour it on~"

Su Mu poured the sauce he had prepared onto the fish, and the aroma of fish filled the air instantly.

He opened his bloody mouth and took a bite.

The meat is very firm and tastes more like beef than fish.

In no time, the silver arowana weighing more than one pound was finished.

For some reason, after eating this pound of fish, Su Mu felt very full. With his appetite fully developed from Qi training, he could eat a hundred pounds of beef, let alone a pound of fish.

Su Mu felt sleepy and fell asleep directly on the pebbles on the shore.

In his sleep, Su Mu felt that his body was undergoing strange changes and his flesh and blood were boiling.

When he woke up again, he found that he had become different. He had an indescribable sense of clarity.

[Host: Su Mu]

[Cultivation: Eighth Level of Foundation Building]

[Controlling magical powers: water control, swimming]

[Mastered Skill: Blue Sky Dragon Formation Technique]

[Water-controlling Beast: Loach Dragon]

[River affinity: 0.03%)]

[River Favor Points: 150 points]

Through the system panel, Su Mu discovered that his cultivation had been raised to the eighth level of foundation building!
He soared directly from the perfection of Qi training to the eighth level of foundation building!
It's like riding a rocket. It seems that the silver dragon fish is more precious than the carp that I got the first time. It is really a precious fish!
However, Su Mu soon discovered the blind spot.

No loach dragon?
What the hell is a loachless dragon?

Could it be that you are talking about the small dolphin?
He had only contracted one water beast, which could only be a small dolphin. Maybe it was called differently in this world, but to Su Mu it was just a dolphin.

Soon, there was another commotion on the shore.

Su Mu's eyes lit up. Xiao Qiu had found another good treasure? !

When we walked to the river bank, we found that the little eel was covered with scars, its eyes were red, and there was even a little blood oozing from its eye sockets.

Seeing this, Su Mu asked, "Little guy, are you going to fight with someone?"

"You little guy, don't mess with those big fish."

The next second, the little loach opened its mouth and spit out a smooth meat ball. Su Mu took it in his hand and squeezed it, and found that it had the texture of meat.

"Where did you get this?"

It was also the first time that Su Mu had seen this kind of thing. It was a small ball of flesh that kept shrinking in his hand.

Although I don’t know where the little eel got it, but from its scarred appearance I can tell that it must have been a fierce battle. Maybe it was the water treasure that was snatched from some water monster?

I feel so sorry for this little guy.

Su Mu didn't know any medical skills, let alone how to heal the fish.

Can I use favor points to help it heal?

[Do you want to use 2 points of favor to heal "No Loach Dragon"? ]

The system seemed to have heard Su Mu's thoughts and asked proactively.

use!
Use it hard for me!

Just two points, reward one of my generals handsomely!
【Healing successful! 】

The little dolphin, which was covered with wounds in the last second, is now as good as new.

At this time, Su Mu felt the little eel's gratitude towards him, and it excitedly circled around Su Mu's feet. "Don't fight with big fish next time. You are so small, I can swallow you in one bite."

"However, you have made great contributions in treasure hunting today, which is very good!"

"Wait, I'll bring you something delicious."

After saying that, Su Mu returned to the stone house and took out a pack of "Field Battle-Blue Crucian Carp" fishing bait.

This "Blue Crucian Carp" bait was also won in a lottery a few days ago.

When it comes to the "Blue Crucian Carp" fishing bait, Su Mu has a lot to say about it.

Suitable for wild fishing and fishing for large fish in various freshwater areas, it has a miraculous effect on crucian carp, carp, grass carp and bream, and has a pure fishy and fragrant taste. It contains a lot of protein fiber and can be used as bait to catch big fish.

The bait preparation method is also very simple.

饵料配比饵水比1:0.9，水深的话可加10%左右的拉丝粉，拉饵时饵水比1:1~1.1，需加15%~20%拉丝粉。

This is the bait-mixing method he learned from Emperor He Qiang. He will definitely come up empty-handed!
After Su Mu opened it, he mixed it evenly, squeezed it into a ball, and threw it directly in front of the little loach.

"Big mouth made!"

"This is a rare thing! You definitely can't get it here. This is the high-tech and hard-core stuff from my hometown. I guarantee you'll be stunned by it!"

However, the little eel came closer and sniffed, then stepped back a little, and came closer and sniffed again, as if testing, or as if confirming.

He didn’t know if it was Su Mu’s illusion, but he seemed to see an expression of extreme disgust on the little eel’s face.

What the hell? ?

You still dislike this?

This is good stuff!
With this group, I can catch at least 10 kilograms of fish. Now I let you enjoy all of them. Am I not being nice to you? ?

"Why don't you eat?"

Su Mu asked with a frown.

After hearing these words, the little dolphin sucked all the bait into its mouth in the next second.

Seeing this, Su Mu showed a satisfied smile: "That's right."

"Go ahead, go play."

"If you see a treasure, bring it to me. If you don't have one, go play with it by yourself."

Su Mu is not an evil capitalist and cannot keep oppressing people. What he hates most is the evil capitalists who don’t care about the lives of Palu and others.

In this regard, Su Mu still feels that he is a more humane farmer.

After having the little dolphin.

Su Mu was also thinking about whether to contract a few more water beasts?

This river seemed to be quite unusual. I ate two precious fish from here, which directly helped my cultivation level to rise rapidly.

And, most importantly, the frequency of time travelers appearing here is also very high!
Could it be that this is the birthplace of the time traveler? ?

But why can other travelers leave their birth point to explore and show their talents, but I am stuck here with a bug?
Forget it, why think so much.

First, I need to quickly collect favor points and refine this broken river so that I can get out of here.

In this way, Su Mu continued his river patrol.

As he walked, he suddenly discovered that a whirlpool had appeared somewhere in the river ahead, stirring up the originally calm river surface.

He still remembered, it wasn't there yesterday, so how come it appeared today?
It doesn't seem like a good thing. What if a passerby falls into such a large abnormal vortex?
In order to maintain the stability of the river and protect the safety of people passing by, Su Mu decided to resolve this abnormal vortex.

Generally speaking, a spiral vortex formed when water flows into a low-lying area is a whirlpool.

Or there is a gap in the riverbed, and there is a culvert underneath, and water continuously flows into the culvert to form a vortex.

The first situation is normal, but the second is not.

Su Mu took off his clothes, jumped into the water and swam towards the whirlpool.

The closer he got to the whirlpool, the stronger the pulling force became, as if it was going to crush Su Mu's body. At a distance of three meters, Su Mu did not dare to get any closer because the tearing force was too strong. He did not dare to take the risk, even though he was already an eighth-level foundation-building cultivator.

But this river is very strange, so it is better to be careful.

Su Mu dived down, he wanted to check if there was a gap in the riverbed.

However, when Su Mu dived to a distance of ten meters, he felt his whole body swelling and as if it was about to collapse, so he did not dare to dive any further.

He surfaced and returned to shore.

Looking at the whirlpool, he thought of something and used his water-controlling power [Stillness] to cover the whirlpool.

Su Mu prepared to correct the vortex by force.

The next second, the vortex indeed returned to calm under Su Mu's forced prohibition.

"It seems that the problem is not the riverbed."

Su Mu touched his chin and muttered.

[You repaired the "whirlpool" and maintained the order of the river, Favor Points +3000]

When Su Mu heard the system's reward announcement, he was dumbfounded.

What the hell? ?

Three thousand points!!

Did you hear it correctly?

In the past, he would get it at a certain time, but this kid got three thousand in one go!
Wow, I just repaired a vortex and rewarded myself with 3,000 points. That’s great, that’s great!

All of a sudden, Su Mu became rich.

He resisted the urge to be a gambler and directly converted the 3,000 points into affinity first. He couldn't have too many favor points on his body. If he had too many, Su Mu would want to gamble.

[Favor Points -3000]

[River affinity: 0.03%] → [River affinity: 0.06%]

Only 0.1 points away from “%”!
Swirl, swirl, I really need a swirl right now!
Su Mu followed the river bank and continued to move forward, hoping to encounter another whirlpool. After all, it took three thousand favor points to repair a whirlpool.
