Chapter 478 The Scarlet Eye at the Bottom of the Pool!
"Uncle Zhu, can you tell me about the situation in detail?"

"Of course, let's go to the house and talk."

The uncle and nephew brought Jiang Sheng into the room, and after Jiang Sheng sat down, Zhu Heng ordered:

"Zhengyang, go make a pot of water, and then go see how your aunt is doing."

Zhu Zhengyang responded, turned and left.

Zhu Heng explained to Jiang Sheng:

"Your aunt has always been in poor health. After an accident a while ago, she fell ill in a hurry. Fortunately, there is no serious problem. Now she is recuperating at home."

"Auntie, he is auspicious and has his own appearance. He will definitely get better."

Jiang Shengying said a beautiful word, and reminded:
"Master, let's talk about entrusting, so that you can solve your serious problems as soon as possible."

"Okay, when people are old, it is inevitable to babble, young people don't mind."

While talking, Zhu Heng took out a contract from the briefcase beside him and handed it to Jiang Sheng.

Jiang Sheng glanced at the title, seeing that it was about the contract of this commission, he calmed down and read each item one by one.

The contract mainly mentioned the issues of remuneration and confidentiality, and there were no other particularly harsh conditions.

It can be seen that the old man is indeed an experienced businessman who knows how to use contracts to reassure his partners and protect his legal rights.

Jiang Sheng read it again, signed the contract, and took away his own.

Zhu Heng felt relieved and began to explain the entrusted case.

More than ten days ago, when he and Pokémon went to the pond to pick pearls, they found that the quality of the pearls produced by the big tongue shell was very poor and could not meet the requirements of the partner.

This aroused his vigilance, and he quickly pried open the shells of other clamshells to check, and found that the quality of pearls in other shells was also extremely poor.

Zhu Heng understood that something serious had happened.

In order to preserve his reputation in the industry, he didn't dare to say anything, and secretly took a few big tongue shells to the city's Pokémon Hospital for examination.

After some examinations, the doctor told him that there was nothing serious. The big tongue shells were just a little weak, and there were no other special diseases on their bodies.

It may be that you have encountered a ghost-type Pokémon, or you may be malnourished. These are all normal phenomena and there is no need to make a fuss.

Malnutrition is impossible, and the feed he uses is prepared by professional nutritionists.

And the first reason, that the big tongue shells were absorbed by the ghost-type Pokémon, is even more nonsense.

The 12-acre specially constructed large pond has a water depth of nearly [-] meters, and there are nearly [-] large tongue shells in it.

No matter how powerful the ghost-type Pokémon is, you will be full if you suck a few of them. How could all the big tongue shells suffer.

Although he didn't agree with this possibility, Zhu Heng still cared about it.

He found professional-level trainers who specialize in evil attributes and ghost attributes respectively. The two stayed by the pond for one night, and then swept the surrounding forests, but still found nothing.

If there is no other way, he can only find some experts to check the situation.

But if the experts know the situation of his family, it means that everyone in the industry knows, and this will affect the sales of pearls in the future.

Occasionally, the pearl oyster in the pond reminded him of a person with superpowers. After finding the customer phone number left many years ago, he asked Li Yuan.

"Xiao Jiang, you have been looking outside for so long, did you find the crux of the matter?"

Jiang Sheng nodded and stood up from the sofa.

"I have some ideas. I'll go outside to have a look. I won't be back later. I'll rest outside tonight."

After speaking, Jiang Sheng was about to leave.

"Come on, I haven't had dinner yet. I'll rest at my uncle's house for the night. Tomorrow morning, my uncle will take you to check the situation near the pond."

"No need, Master Zhu, you can see more things at night.

The pond behind your house includes the nearby forest, there is no place that I should avoid, right? "

Seeing Jiang Sheng's resolute attitude, Zhu Heng did not stop him, and he also hoped that this matter would be resolved as soon as possible.

"Apart from the danger, there are no other secrets in the mountains and forests. You can move around as you please."

He patted Zhu Zhengyang on the shoulder, and said with a little guilt:

"Zhengyang, take Xiao Jiang to the pond behind to have a look. You know the situation well, so please cooperate with Xiao Jiang."

"Master, don't worry, leave it to me, you can rest first."

Zhu Zhengyang took Haoli and led Jiang Sheng out of the gate. The two walked around the courtyard wall towards the back of the house. After walking for more than ten minutes, a large pond came into view.

How big is the 18 acre pond?
It is about 110 meters long and wide, and the scale is already very large.

What's even more commendable is that this is a living pond.

According to Zhu Zhengyang, a long time ago there was a pond formed by the accumulation of mountain spring water.

There are big tongue shells living in the pool, and his ancestors made a fortune by collecting pearls from big tongue shells.

Later, Zhu Heng came out of the previous generation. He understood some business concepts, began to build brand awareness, introduced technology, widened and deepened the pond, introduced improved species, and raised large-tongue mussels on a large scale.

After taking a general look at the condition of the pond, Zhu Zhengyang advised Jiang Sheng to leave and start working again tomorrow morning.

Jiang Sheng frowned lightly, feeling a little in the way. After refusing the invitation, he told Zhu Zhengyang that he was going to investigate the surroundings.

Before Zhu Zhengyang could say that he would lead the way, Jiang Sheng released the metal monster, sat on top of the metal monster and went up into the sky, disappearing between the steep cliffs.

Zhu Zhengyang gave a wry smile, and had no choice but to leave with all his might, not following in the way.

Not long after Zhu Zhengyang left, Jiang Sheng and the metal monster patrolled the surrounding mountains and forests, and through his special induction, they determined the scope of the field.

It was not his original intention to force Zhu Zhengyang away just now with his disgusted attitude.

In this location field, his life energy has been being absorbed. Although he can't feel it, his intuition has been urging him to leave here, making him very upset.

He attributed this special intuition to the characteristic of [Heaven's Grace], which has a strong effect of avoiding evil, making him more sensitive than Yongjila, and aware of the danger in this area.

Looking down at the ground from the air, according to the coverage area measured before, the special field here is just hemispherical, and its center is in the northwest area of ​​the pond.

It's okay if the field is not discovered. Once a special talent like Jiang Sheng discovers and delimits the area, anyone with a little brain will first lock the center of the ball and check if there is any abnormality there.

Things were so easy, and Jiang Sheng reaped the bonus brought by his super mental power.

After confirming the location, Jiang Sheng came to the shore of the northwest area of ​​the pond, and planned to go into the water to investigate later.

Jiang Sheng released all the Pokémon by the pond, looked at their handsome appearance, Jiang Sheng couldn't help but fell into silence.

Wait...Which boss can take me into the water to find out the situation?

"Yongjila, can you hold up the Psychic Ball and take me into the water?"

Last time, it was the metal monster who propped up the Psychic Ball and took him to hide in the sea water to observe the yacht up close.

But last time it didn't go too deep, only lurking at a depth of two or three meters. This time the depth of the pond is about 12 meters.

"It shouldn't be a problem. The water pressure in fresh water is relatively low, but diving to a depth of 12 meters consumes a lot of mental power. I don't recommend you to use this method."

Jiang Sheng rubbed his chin, maybe he was going to put on a diving suit and go into the water with a flashlight to search for it by himself.

Wait, dive!
Why did I forget this move, isn't it suitable for this situation?

Jiang Sheng's eyes moved over all the Pokémon, and the Pokémon seemed to be inspected one by one, with serious expressions, sitting upright, waiting for Jiang Sheng to issue an order.

Moving his eyes back and forth, Jiang Sheng finally locked on Kuailong.

Alas, the fat water has flowed to outsiders again. Among the Pokémon present, only Kuailong can learn to dive!
When you see Zhong Yuancheng next time, think of a way to trick Kuailong from him.

"Quailong, I will trouble you to take me for a walk underwater later."

Hearing that Jiang Sheng was looking for it, Kuailong's face was overjoyed, and the dragon's claw patted his chest, making an obligatory expression.

Hei Lujia and the others stared at Jiang Sheng with strange eyes.

Well, I just said yesterday that we should pay more attention to us, and today I will continue to chat with my little mother Longqing.

Bah, scumbag!

Kuailong ignored the lemon-like eyes of his companions, flapped his wings and came to Jiang Sheng. A pair of dragon claws hugged Jiang Sheng and was about to jump into the water.

"Stop! Stop! Long Jie, calm down first! Not now, we will teach you a move before we go into the water."

Before falling into the water, Jiang Sheng successfully stopped Kuailong to avoid getting wet.

Spending 800 points of ancient energy, Jiang Sheng helped Kuailong learn to dive.

After that, Kuailong practiced diving skills by the pond.

The fast dragon can swim freely in the sea, and the diving moves just allow it to take people into the water.

In order to test the manned skills, Kuailong took his little sister Leiqiu on a wet journey.

Jiang Sheng camped by the pond with other Pokémon, lit a bonfire, and prepared dinner.

In the middle of the night, Kuailong woke up Jiang Sheng, who was meditating by the campfire, and nodded to Jiang Sheng.

"Yongjila, come down with me!"

Among the several Pokémon, Jiang Sheng chose Yongjila, the panacea type, to accompany him into the water.

By the pond, Kuailong grabbed one with one claw and jumped into the pond.

When it touched the surface of the water, Kuailong's body lit up with white light, forming a gas mask to help them dispel the sea water, so that they could survive underwater.

Continue to dive, the white light of the gas mask illuminates the dark underwater space, allowing Jiang Sheng to see the surrounding situation clearly.

There are no other Pokémon in the pond, only Tongue is bobbing in the water.

Near the bottom of the pond, there are big tongue shells lying on the mud.

Seeing an unknown luminous body approaching them, the big tongue shells fled in a hurry, and the sea water became turbid at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Such a chaotic scene was beyond Jiang Sheng's expectation.

He patted his forehead, recalled the memory of being in the air before, and took out the compass from the [backpack] to determine the direction.

"Go over there, advance about ten meters, and search forward in a fan shape."

Jiang Sheng pointed in one direction, and Kuailong leaned over there.

Wherever Kuailong went, the big tongue oysters fled one after another, and occasionally a few pearl oysters could be seen, making the water in the pool turbid.

Such a big movement awakened the predators hidden in the bottom of the water.

A pair of scarlet eyes opened under the mud!
