At this moment, Bai Jun's voice came from outside:

"Why did you arrest my wife? Oh, you are wrong, she is my wife, not a monster!"

"What, she turned into a fish? Whether she's a fish or a human, she's still my wife!"

"Why are you stopping me? Let me in, I want to see her!"

"If you don't let me see her, I'm going to call the police!"

"Bai Jun, Bai Jun!" Zhang Xuexue's fish-shaped head poked out of the water and shouted loudly.

The water in the pool was also splashing due to her tail.

But the sound outside suddenly disappeared, but there was the sound of footsteps leaving.

"Is Bai Jun gone?" Zhang Xuexue felt a little regretful, but on second thought it seemed reasonable.

After Jinxia was arrested, Jiang Jun never came to see her again until the last moment of Jinxia's life, when he felt guilty and came to see her for the last time.

Bai Jun now is Jiang Jun back then, so he will repeat what Jiang Jun did back then. He will step on Jinxia's flesh and blood to gain benefits, and naturally he will not come to save her, or even meet her.

Zhang Xuexue's body slowly slid under the water. The water was really cold, but no matter how cold the water was, it was not as cold as her heart at the moment.

Bai Jun was persuaded to go back by a man from the same village.

This man is the deputy village chief. His surname is Jiang and he is a distant relative of Jiang Jun.

Back in the shabby house, Village Chief Jiang patiently explained to Jiang Jun: "That witch is really a fish demon. She must be with you to harm you. Tonight, many people saw her kill Village Chief Jin. Village Chief Jin was so young and promising, it's really pitiful that he died like this."

Bai Jun said stubbornly: "Even if she killed someone, she is still my wife."

"She is a fish demon, a koi fish demon! If the perfume made from her body can really bring good luck, do you know what that means?"

"It means you are going to kill her!"

"It means we are all going to get rich! My village is going to be prosperous!"

"But you just want to harm her, I don't agree!"

Village Chief Jiang was so angry at Bai Jun, "Why are you so stupid? Don't you want to get rich and rise to prominence? Do you really want to be a poor fisherman all your life, making a living in the wind and waves, and never know when you will be swept away by the waves?"

Bai Jun said: "But she is my wife, I can't watch you hurt her!"

"When you have money, how many beautiful women do you want? They are just fish, just like the fish you catch in your fishing net! If they are fish, they are destined to be eaten!"

"Now that Jin Dongmin is dead, I will be promoted to deputy village chief. I'll leave the position to you! I'll give you a big share of all the perfumes I make and the wealth I earn. When you have money, you can marry another wife. There are so many young girls in the village. If you like any of them, just tell me! I'll help you propose marriage!"

Bai Jun wanted to say something, but the other party held his shoulder and said, "You'd better think it over carefully. If you agree, you will have no shortage of food and clothing, and become a deputy village chief respected by the whole village. If our village expands into a town, you can also become the deputy town chief."

"But if you insist on doing this and cut off everyone's source of income, you will be the enemy of the entire village! Then, don't blame us for being cruel to you..."

When saying the last sentence, Village Chief Jiang's eyes were cold and the warning was obvious.

Bai Jun knew that if he did not agree, he would definitely not be able to live in the village anymore, and might even be killed quietly.

He lowered his head and thought, his mind still had a fog that blocked his rationality, and he could only vaguely hear a voice telling him: Your power alone is too weak, and you will not be able to save her and will also ruin your own life. Don't make enemies with the whole village, accept the arrangement of fate, that is the best way out.

Finally, he nodded and woodenly repeated the words in his mind: "Don't make enemies with the whole village, accept the arrangement of fate..."

The man sitting opposite him laughed happily: "Jiang Jun, I knew you were a smart man! From today on, you are the deputy village chief! Don't worry, everyone will not treat you unfairly."

Bai Jun gritted his teeth and said with great difficulty: "I still want to... see her one last time."

Village Chief Jiang said, "You will feel uncomfortable if you see it. It is just a fish. Listen to me and forget about it."

Bai Jun shook his head stiffly, speaking with some effort: "I want to go and see, just... once."

Village Chief Jiang thought for a moment and said, "Okay, just once. When do you want to meet?"

Bai Jun glanced out the window. It was pitch black outside. There was no moonlight or starlight. The whole world was so dark that it made people despair.

He shuddered for no apparent reason and said in a trembling voice, "I'll go again in the morning."

Village Chief Jiang laughed. "It's better to go at dawn. The night is filled with yin energy and the monsters are very bad-tempered, which is a bit scary. I'll tell the gatekeeper, you can go anytime today or tomorrow. But we've got it, only once."

After Village Chief Jiang left, Bai Jun sent him to the door, stood by the road and peeked for a while, then ran towards the sea.

In the early morning, smoke rises from the small fishing village, and bursts of rice aroma waft out.

Everyone in the village is poor and can’t bear to eat good food.

But this morning, every household took out the best ingredients to cook and enjoy.

Last night, the news that a koi was caught made everyone very excited.

In particular, the deputy village chief announced publicly that once the perfume becomes a luxury, everyone will be able to earn a lot of money. In the future, every household will become wealthy, and the village will be renamed "Koi Town".

Everyone was dreaming of a prosperous life in the future, and everyone's face was filled with a happy smile.

Bai Jun came to the basement with a heavy heart. The two villagers in charge of guarding warned him, "This monster is very fierce. Don't get close to the pool, or she will hurt people!"

Bai Jun waved his hand: "I understand, you guys go wait outside first."

"Okay, just shout at the door and we'll open it for you. Remember, don't get close to the pool, and don't open the fishing net!"
