Seeing that the young couple were well-behaved and well-dressed, the man's eyes lit up and he immediately felt that an opportunity had come. He hurriedly promoted the little koi he had caught: "Master and madam, this is called longevity fish, it can cure all diseases! Look,

Look at its eyes, it’s a blinking fish.”

The name "Longevity Fish" was chosen by the man himself, and it was just a gimmick. He didn't even know whether the little koi could cure all diseases. He just relied on such a legend and chose a good name to promote the little koi.

The price is too high, just find someone to take advantage of and sell it.

If no one takes the bait, he will take the little koi home and make soup. Even if it cannot cure all diseases, it can still be an added dish.

"Longevity fish? Can it blink?" The young couple cheered up and hurriedly looked at the little koi. Seeing it sinking motionless in the water with its eyes closed, they couldn't help but look at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

The husband said decisively, with determination in his eyes flashing: "How much does this longevity fish cost? We bought it!"

The man was so surprised that he suppressed the excitement in his heart and said with difficulty: "Master, this longevity fish is rare. It's hard to say whether there is another one in the world. The price..."

The husband heard what he meant, glanced at his wife's belly, and said hurriedly: "I will pay twenty taels of silver."

Although the family is relatively wealthy, their parents are still alive, and they are not married. In recent years, in order to force him to divorce Qiuniang, his parents have long cut off his monthly income and kicked him out of the house.

The two are already half of the couple’s savings.

The man never expected that a palm-sized fish could be sold for twenty taels of silver, which would buy him three or four acres of farmland. You know, at first he thought he could sell it for only three to five taels of silver, and he would knock down his family's shabby thatched hut.

It would be nice to build an adobe house.

The couple is willing to pay so much money. It is obvious that the family is not short of money, and they believe that longevity fish has magical powers. If they miss such a big deal, they may not encounter another one.

Thinking of this, a trace of greed flashed in the man's eyes, he stretched out three fingers and said: "Thirty taels, no two prices!"

The husband frowned, gritted his teeth and was about to agree, when his wife Qiuniang pulled his sleeve to stop him and said: "Brother Shan, it's just a small fish. We have never seen it before. Who knows if this can cure all diseases?"

People are asking for prices all over the place, and most of them are trying to trick us or not buy it."

After that, she took her husband and left.

The two have been husband and wife for five or six years and can often understand each other's meaning with just one look.

Li Shan suddenly woke up after hearing what his wife said: "What you said makes sense. Who knows whether eating such a weird fish will be harmful, so let's go quickly and buy a serious fish to eat with peace of mind."

The couple sang together and then left hand in hand.

The man and his family were dumbfounded. After reacting, they hurriedly blocked the couple's way and said flatteringly, "Master and madam, everything I said is true. How dare I fool you!"

Lin Qiuniang said impatiently: "Since everything you said is true, there is no shortage of people who know the goods. Our couple can't afford it. You can sell it to others. Why are you blocking it here?"

The man became more and more afraid to let them leave, and said hurriedly: "Madam, for twenty taels, I will sell it to you at a discount of ten taels of silver according to the price the master just said!"

Lin Qiuniang didn't want to buy it. She waved her hand and said, "No, who knows if this kind of strange fish can be eaten? Who can afford it if it gets spoiled after buying it? You'd better sell it to someone else."

The man scratched his head and scratched his head anxiously, and suddenly he knelt down on the ground with a sudden burst of wisdom: "Madam, sir, I have a lot of people, I just hope to sell this fish so that I can buy rice to go home and make porridge. I beg you to be merciful."

Buy this fish!"

His family also begged one after another. Their sallow and thin faces spoke of the poverty of the family, as if the whole family would starve to death if the couple did not buy the fish.

After some final bargaining, Qin Shan and Lin Qiuniang bought the little koi for ten taels of silver, and left with the bucket under the grateful eyes of the man's family.

When they got home, the couple closed the door and stared at the little koi in the bucket.

You can buy a palm-sized fish in the market for three to five cents. The reason why they are willing to spend a lot of money to buy this little koi is because an expert once told them that as long as they eat a spirit that can blink their eyes.

fish, the couple will have their own children.

The couple has lived for more than 20 years and has never seen a blinking fish. However, they have been married for several years and have no children. Even if there is a glimmer of hope, they still want to give it a try. Unexpectedly, they actually met one while shopping today.

A spirit fish that can blink its eyes.

The fish was bright in color and graceful in body. It looked like an extraordinary fish at first sight. The couple felt that God had opened his eyes and bestowed this spiritual fish that could cure all diseases.

"Husband, as long as we eat this fish, we will have a child." Lin Qiuniang looked excited, with tears in her bright eyes.

"Well, I'll cook later." Qin Shan was also very excited. As long as he has children, his parents will definitely accept Qiuniang as their daughter-in-law again, and will never force him to divorce his wife and marry someone else again.

The little koi slowly woke up and swung its tail gently, not knowing where it was. When it heard someone talking above its head, it raised its head slightly and looked over, and saw two strange-looking guys.

Its eyes rolled around, searching for these two guys in the depths of its memory. But it had never seen anyone in more than a hundred years from its birth to now, so it didn't know who they were.

But the amazing thing is that it can understand what these two people are saying. When it heard that Qinshan was going to cut off its scales and disembowel it and cook it in a pot, it was frightened and turned around anxiously. It anxiously bumped against the strong wooden barrel, trying to escape.

.

"Hey, this fish is awake!" Lin Qiuniang was the first to notice the movement of the little koi. Seeing it banging its head against the wall of the bucket desperately, she asked in confusion: "Is this fish a fool? Doesn't such a collision hurt?"

When Qin Shan saw it, he thought the fish was stupid: "Maybe it was sleepy and thought it was still in the river. No, I will kill it now to avoid being killed and stale."

Lin Qiuniang nodded: "Death is likely to affect the properties of the medicine."

The little koi heard what the couple said clearly. It was so frightened that it hit the bucket more and more desperately.

As a result, it hit it seven or eight times in a row. Not only did it not kill it, it actually knocked a hole in the bucket. It squeezed out of the hole and fell to the ground with a splat, and the water in the bucket even flowed out.

One place.

The couple looked at the broken bucket, and then at the little koi fish writhing crazily on the ground. Their eyes were full of disbelief. But the next moment, they turned into determination.

This fish is so unique, it must be the spiritual fish that experts say can cure their hidden diseases!

"Hurry, catch it quickly, don't let it escape!" The couple took action in unison to catch the little koi that was about to escape.

When the little koi heard this, it swung its tail faster, wishing it could grow four long legs like the golden beast.

But it is just a fish. Even though it was born with spiritual wisdom and has been practicing for more than a hundred years, it is just a little stronger than ordinary fish. It cannot escape from the hands of the couple and is caught by them soon.

Lived.

"Hey, this fish seems to have gained a lot of weight. It's really strange." Qin Shan grabbed the little koi and looked around, pinched its small body and evaluated it, and concluded that the fish had gained a lot of weight after waking up.

lock up.

Lin Qiuniang smiled and said: "This is a spiritual fish. It is naturally different from ordinary fish. It is not surprising to wake up fatter after sleeping."

Qin Shan thought about it and felt it made sense, and looked at the little koi with increasingly intense eyes.

The little koi tried all its strength but could not break away from the man's big hand. It suddenly became desperate and opened its mouth to cry: "I'm going to die, I'm going to die, wuwu, if I had known that I would get into the frying pan if I slept, I would just stare at him."

I can’t sleep even if I’m blind, wuwu~”

Fish don't make sounds, and as ordinary people, the couple couldn't hear the cry of the little koi at all. Seeing that it suddenly stopped moving, Lin Qiuniang couldn't help but become confused. When she took a closer look, she unexpectedly found that there were big eyes in the little koi's eyes.

Big tears flowed down.

Her eyes widened, she pointed at the little koi's eyes and stammered: "Shan, Brother Shan, the spirit fish is crying!"

Qin Shan quickly raised the little koi and stared at its eyes, and found that it was indeed crying. He couldn't help but said: "It is indeed a spiritual fish, it can shed tears like a human being. It should understand that we want to eat it, and it is scared."

Cry."

When Lin Qiuniang heard this, she couldn't bear it: "Brother Shan, it already has intelligence, wouldn't it be too cruel for us to eat it?"

Qin Shan knew that his wife was kind-hearted. Looking at the spirit fish that was still shedding tears, Qin Shan hesitated and said: "Cruelty is a bit cruel. If we don't eat it, how can we have children?"

The little koi carp had been paying attention to the words and deeds of the couple. When he heard this, he suddenly felt that he had a chance to survive. He hurriedly flicked his tail to them, raised his head high and said: "Please let me go, I have no intention of letting anyone have children."

It's useless for you to eat me."

The couple could not hear the sound of the fish, saw its mouth opening and closing, and the tears were not flowing as fiercely as before. They also guessed that the spiritual fish might be begging them to let it go, and they became more and more hesitant.

Lin Qiuniang lowered her head, touched her flat belly, then looked at the spiritual fish that was still begging, and finally gritted her teeth and said: "Brother Shan, let it go. As the fish seller said, this spiritual fish is rare."

See, there may not necessarily be a second rule in the world. Since it has received great love from God and has opened up its spiritual wisdom, if we eat it like this and destroy its practice, we are afraid that it will offend God. Even if we are lucky enough to have a child,

Who knows if this kid is here to collect debt!"

To put it bluntly, she just couldn't bear it because of her kindness. To her, eating a fish that is as intelligent as a human being is no different from eating a human being. If she really eats this spiritual fish, she will feel uneasy even if she thinks about it afterwards.

die.
