Azeroth Shadow Trail

Chapter 204 23. Fishing Guys Never Empty! (Down)

"You saw me in your dream?"

On the pier of South Sea Town, Bu Laike raised his brows when he heard the blond young man beside him.

He asked:

"When did you dream of me?"

"That... your hook is not baited."

Nat Pagle, who was sitting next to Boo Laike, noticed another thing. He pointed to the fishhook thrown into the water by Boo Laike, and said:

"You can't catch fish like this. You look like a novice. Come on, let me teach you how to fish. I am very good at this."

"No, no, I'm more concerned about the dream."

Boo Laike held out his finger, stopped Nat from trying to help him, glanced into the water, shrugged, and said:

"And I think I can catch a fish, do you want to make a bet?"

"I do not believe!"

When talking about fishing, Nat was so confident that he tossed his chestnut hair and said:

"I've never seen or heard of anyone catching fish without bait. What do you want to bet with me?"

"Those dreams of yours, Nat."

The pirate snapped his fingers and said with piercing eyes:

"I want to hear about your dreams. Tell me about them, starting with the one about you seeing me. If you don't think the bet is exciting enough, we'll take it up a notch.

In ten minutes, see who catches the most fish.

Bet.

Let me think about it. "

Bu Laike rubbed his chin, and with the other hand, he took out the little murloc who was sleeping soundly in the backpack on his back waist, wrapped it in a shadow, and flicked his fingers lightly.

When the little murloc danced and fell into the water, he clapped his palms and said:

"I happen to be short of an ingredient preparer on my ship. If you lose, you can work for me for a year."

"Competing fishing with me?"

Nat's expression became a little weird, as if suppressing a smile, he turned his head and coughed, and said solemnly:

"Okay, if I win. Well, I don't need anything. I'm quite satisfied with my current life. Let's just play and start now?"

"Ok."

Bo Laike nodded, took out a small hourglass from the bag, turned it over, and placed it between the two of them. He pretended to be holding the fishing rod, and said to Nat who was hanging the bait beside him:

"While fishing, telling stories at the same time, when did you dream of me?"

"Probably, a few months ago."

Nat threw out his fishing rod, but he didn't notice that there was a ghostly little murloc swimming around in the water under their feet.

This is normal, he is just an ordinary person, and he cannot perceive the strengthened Benbo Erba.

He maintained the feeling of fishing as usual, while feeling the fishing rod in his hand, he said to Bu Laike as if chatting:

"At that time, the orcs were about to attack the hills, and we were all taken to Tarren Mill. The mayor didn't allow me to go fishing. It was a boring time.

I work for the army every day, eat poor food, and occasionally sleep when I have nothing to do.

It seems to be at noon.

When I was taking a nap, I dreamed about you.

It was on a big ship, you fought bravely with the orcs, those soldiers called you 'His Royal Highness', and they fought with you.

But there are monsters flying down from the sky and spitting fire at your ship, and you can't dodge it, you can only be engulfed in flames like everyone else on board.

But you are lucky, you escaped the flames, fell into the sea, seemed to be seriously injured, and found a very strange thing on the bottom of the sea, and survived"

"and then?"

Bu Laike listened to Nat's dream with a calm face, and felt quite uneasy. He asked:

"Then what did you dream about?"

"Uh, then, I woke up."

Nat scratched his hair and said to Bo Laike:

"People in the town were going to cut wood that afternoon, and I was kicked up by the captain when I was sleeping soundly, but the food was good that night, and Hal caught a rabbit in the forest.

We had a meal of roast rabbit together. "

"Here, your captain really deserves a beating."

Bu Laike curled his lips. He glanced into the water and asked again:

"What about other dreams? You seem to be very good at dreaming."

"Yes, I have been good at two things since I was a child, fishing and dreaming."

Nat laughed and said:

"The former from my father, and the latter, it's a gift. I'm good at fishing, man, and Hal and I were going to be in the Army.

But one officer sent me back one afternoon after fishing with me once, and asked me to fish for the army, specifically to sort out the catch.

He also said that I had a better future as a fisherman than as a soldier.

So, you can't beat me. "

This is said very confidently.

But after a few seconds, Bu Laike's fishing line moved. Under Nat's surprised gaze, the pirate flicked the rod lightly, and he pulled up a fat color-finned fish.

He was thrown into the bucket next to him by Laike. He winked at Nat and said:

"1:0, Mr. Nat, maybe you are also good at bragging besides fishing and dreaming.

Don't frown.

Trash-talking each other is the most exciting part of any game. "

As he spoke, the pirate threw the baited hook into the sea again, looked at Nat, and said:

"Okay, let's move on to your dream. I thought it was interesting. What do you think is the craziest dream you've ever had?"

"Uh."

The question stuck with Nat.

While stabilizing the fishing rod in his hand, he tilted his head and thought about it, and said to Bu Laike:

"It should be that dream, the dream I often had when I was a child. I was only a few years old at the time, and I would often be woken up by that dream. I dreamed of thousands of people looking down on our world from the sky

We living people are like their puppets!

We dance, we cry, we fight monsters, and we say stupid things just for their amusement. "

The blond fisherman seemed to recall that weird dream, even though it was more than ten years ago, he still shuddered, looked around, lowered his business and said to Bu Laike beside him:

"Sometimes, I think, they're spying on us even when we're awake. Maybe right now."

"Good guy!"

When the pirate heard this, he whispered:

"You have broken the fourth wall, the master of prophecy is well-deserved."

"What wall?"

Nat asked curiously, Bo Laike glanced at him and said:

"nothing.

I think your dream is a bit interesting, but when you tell other people, they will definitely say that you are crazy, just like Hal who just left, right? "

"That's true."

Speaking of this question, Nat's mood became a little depressed, and he said:

"Hal is actually my best friend, we grew up together, and he is the only one who wants to play with me when everyone else is laughing at me.

He also liked hearing my weird dreams when he was a kid, but he didn't like it so much when he got older.

He always said those dreams were boring, but I actually knew why.

He still likes to listen to my dreams, but when he grows up, he also understands how uncomfortable it is to be judged by others, but he is still willing to fish with me.

Also helped me out when those people laughed at me when they were drunk.

He was angry today, not because he really hated me, but yesterday, the girl he had a crush on moved back to Arathi Heights, and he was in a bad mood. "

"Do you feel bad because those people say you're crazy?"

Bo Laike observed Nat, he asked softly:

"Do you hate them for that?"

"They are all very good people. I know that I am in trouble, and they will help me, but they have their mouths on them, and I can't control them.

So, just pretend you didn't hear it, because Hal is with me anyway. "

Nat took a deep breath, he grinned at Boo Laike and said:

"Besides, I can't stay awake because I'm afraid of what others will say, right? I will have dreams as soon as I sleep. Although most of the dreams are quite normal, the occasional strange dreams are beyond my control.

Hey, today is so weird.

It's been several minutes, why hasn't the fish been hooked yet? "

While Nat was asking questions.

Under the water in front of him and Laike, the little murloc, Benbo Erba, was swiftly punching the big color fin fish that was rushing towards Nat's bait unconscious with a punch.

Then he dragged the fish, hooked it to Boo Laike's hook, stretched out his claws, and pulled Boo Laike's line.

In the laughter of the pirates, another big color fin fish took the bait.

But Laike's smile didn't last for a few seconds, and Nat also caught a fish. With the laughter of the fisherman, he also caught a fish, which stunned the pirates.

its not right!

With Ben Boerba watching under the water, how could there be fish to bite Nat's hook?

The little murloc under the water also looked confused.

What happened just now was beyond the little murloc's expectation.

Just when it hooked the stunned first fish on Bu Laike's hook, the second fish rushed over like a sharp arrow, and when Ben Boerba couldn't react at all, it bit Na at the speed of light. special hook.

The little murloc was so angry that he shook his fist violently in the water.

Next time, won't let it pass!

"Haha, 2:1."

Nat shook the big fish in his hand, winked at Bo Laike and said:

"My luck also came."

"Indeed, your fishing skills are quite good."

The pirate gave a thumbs up and said:

"Go on with your dream, friend, I want to know more."

"Okay, usually no one wants to listen to me talking about my dreams, but today I have fishing friends who are not only fishing with me, but also willing to listen to my nagging, which is really great."

Nat laughed and continued to tell Boo Laike about his strange dreams.

"When I was a teenager, I would occasionally have a very strange dream. I was on a mountain with many old and tall trees. I became a female elf at that time, and I was in a temple.

Always pray, pray.

I also like to eat bananas."

"Speaking of the craziest, it's not just the dream I told you just now, there is also a crazy one. I dreamed that Tarren Mill was captured by an army of crazy undead, and became the enemy of Southsea Town ever since. .

Can you imagine such a thing? horrible. "

"Oh oh oh, and this! I almost forgot to mention it. That is the cruelest. The king's son, Your Highness Alsace! He has grown up, and set out to join the battle with the paladin Master Uther"

Nat's voice was lowered, as if he knew that this dream would not be heard by others, he would be beaten up by the soldiers of Lordaeron, and even get him into trouble.

He said eloquently:

"In that mad dream, Prince Arthas is tragically drawn to evil, and becomes evil himself. Finally, he returns to the king in feigned triumph.

Raised his sword and charged at the king, then dropped his hand

You know he killed him right there. "

"That's pretty crazy."

Laike pretended to be surprised and exclaimed, but there was no disturbance in his heart.

It's not accurate to say that, he was surprised by the prophecy talent of Nat Pagle, a fisherman, even though in the game, this future fishing master had shown his talent as a prophet.

But that's mostly just game design. After experiencing it personally, a bright light has already flashed in Bu Laike's squinted eyes.

This guy in front of me!

Just the kind of talent he needs.

Even if only two or three out of ten of his strange dreams were accurate, it would be of great benefit to Laike. Not to mention that if you're lucky, Nat can be used as a "hazard warning radar".

We must find a way to lure him into the boat.

If he's going to deny it, tell Mayor Mareb that Nat Pagle is a collaborator

Ugh, that's a little too bad.

never mind.

If he doesn't want to go, let Ravenholdt do it and tie him to the boat.

Thinking of this, Bu Laike looked back at Nanhai Town behind him, thinking in his heart:

"This town is really unusual. If I remember correctly, many interesting things will happen here in the future. Oh, I made a mistake, I came too early."
