The wind in the river is so powerful that clothes are flying.

Liang Qu sat cross-legged in the boat, looking at the map over and over again, his brows furrowed into a straight line.

Looking around, the vast river is occasionally interspersed with a few floating islands, with only a sun hanging above our heads.

He was about to break through the blood barrier. Liang Qu had brought the blood-transforming pills, blood-coagulating pills, and blood-activating pills that Master Yang had given him a few days ago, including the ox and pomfret horns used as medicine, with him in advance to be prepared.

As a result, the most important thing was missed.

"I didn't bring the compass..."

It was my first time traveling far away, so I was careless.

These days, there is no navigation, the roads are not good, and the household registration restrictions limit the scope of people's activities. Anyone who can travel freely across several counties is a capable master.

If you can travel between several provinces, it will be even more amazing. Big chambers of commerce are clamoring for it, so you can eat and drink wherever you go.

"stop!"

The fat catfish and the inability to move took off their strength, and the water mark behind the boat healed quickly.

"Get closer to the shore..."

On the bow of the ship, Liang Qu stretched out his hand to protect a small puddle. There was a leaf floating in it, with an iron needle attached to the veins. Under the influence of the magnetized iron needle, the leaf tip slowly pointed north.

Without a compass, Liang Qu couldn't be troubled at all.

Go ashore and find a small village. You can't buy anything as high-end as a compass, but men farm and women weave. It's more than enough to buy an iron needle. You can rub some magnets into your hair and use it as a compass.

"It's off to the side, Ah Fei, please move to the left!"

The fat catfish hit the water with an extra three-cent force to the right, turned the bow of the boat slightly, and continued to gallop.

It's no different from compass comparison, except that you need to stop moving every once in a while to re-confirm your position.

If you take the land route between Pingyang County and Fengbu County, you have to go around a circle, but if you take the water route, it is a straight line, and the distance alone is nearly 30% less.

Without a compass for constant positioning, the goal of arriving in a straight line will not be achieved. It will most likely become a zigzag line with little fluctuation. It will probably take half a day at night, but it will still be faster than traveling by land.

Why.

It was my first time traveling far away, and there was no one to take me with me. There were so many things to pay attention to.

Liang Qu has another insight.

Starry night.

More than a dozen small boats spread out on the river, extending for more than two miles, almost to the edge of the deep water area.

When Pingyang County was still Pingyang Town, large ships between the two places all used this waterway. Anyone traveling between the two places would not be discovered.

Snapped!

He threw his big hand on his face, and the blood-sucking mosquito exploded into a pool of blood.

A few rough guys were sitting on a small boat, bored. None of them were warriors. They could only feed mosquitoes on the river.

"Why are there so many damn mosquitoes? Is anyone here?"

“There’s not even a single fish, so where are the people from?”

"It's been a few days and you haven't come yet?"

"It's only been a few days. According to the speed, the news probably passed yesterday or the day before yesterday. It must have been another day or two."

"Then why are we waiting so early?"

"It's better to kill someone wrong than to let it go. It's us who feed the mosquitoes, not the gang leader. If we stay here for half a month, it won't delay the gang leader's marrying a new concubine."

There was silence for a while.

"Damn it, it's all Lin Laoer's fault. He didn't stop that fucker and let the people above know about it, otherwise we wouldn't have come to the river to suffer and feed the mosquitoes. This has never happened before."

"In the past, no one cared about water affairs. As long as those mud-legged people paid their taxes on time, no one cared about your life or death. Now that we have come to the river house, it is still next door. We are definitely not as comfortable as before. Didn't the second gang leader say a few days ago, Our Whale Gang needs to be more restrained now, life will not be as easy as before, are you ready to cut our manpower?”

Another man interrupted: "You think, if that Hebo Station really takes care of this matter and sends people here, we won't really want to kill officials, right?"

"Kill an official? What are you thinking about? Don't want to die? Can you kill an official with your little arms and legs? You didn't hear what the second gang leader said at all. Just give me some money and send it back. Don't cause any trouble."

"Can you send it back?"

"Have you ever seen a cat that doesn't steal sex? If you don't make money as an official, why do you want to be a sub-official?"

"Be patient, the three gang leaders said that when the wind blows over, they will take us to Tianxiang Tower to play with girls and have fun!"

"That makes me itchy."

"What's itching for? You're such a coward, you won't get sick, right?"

"You idiot! Get the hell out of here!"

The boat was speeding, and Liang Qu was leaning on the edge of the boat to do his exercises, and suddenly his heart moved.

The waves in the water flowed, and the waves, which were more than half a foot high, surged out of the water three feet high and went hand in hand with the boat. Through the moonlight, one could clearly see a two-foot-long big fish sitting in the center of the waves.

The body is covered in green skin without scales, the nose is like a cow's nose, the head is large and square, very different from ordinary fish heads, and the eyes are round and huge.

Cowfish!

Another treasure fish!

The bullfish surfaced out of thin air, terrified, and swam forward with all its strength, but no matter how hard it struggled, it was always enveloped by the waves.

I didn’t expect that I would be able to gain unexpected rewards just by traveling.

Liang Qu stretched out his hand, his fingers like eagle claws, pinched the back of the fish and took the bullhead fish out of the waves.

The waves broke on the river, leaving behind billowing foam.

The biggest characteristic of the bullfish is its immense strength. The strength of a one-pound bullfish with a flick of its tail can drag an ordinary fisherman into the water. If it were an ordinary fish, even a fish weighing less than twenty pounds would not be able to do it.

For this reason, this kind of fish cannot be seen on the market at all, and fishermen can only catch the smaller ones with a broken net.

When it grows a little bigger, it weighs three or four kilograms. Ordinary people may not be able to fight it face to face in the water. If it is accidentally slapped on the tail and faints, it will drown on the spot.

The ox-headed fish in front of him weighed twelve or thirteen pounds, and several adults could not hold it down. Unfortunately, it was difficult for Liang Qu to even move it.

"Okay, take a break and eat first!"

Liang Qu controlled the water flow and took off the ropes on the three beasts.

The fat catfish and the inability to move had been pulling the boat for most of the day without a break, and their stomachs were already empty.

His fists were being pulled all the time, but he was not tired, but his head was a little dizzy.

Awei climbed down from his wrist, lay down beside the ox-headed fish and stabbed his mouthparts. In a few breaths, he sucked all the blood from the ox-headed fish, and the fish body shrank slightly.

Without blood, Liang Qu took out the blue wolf, chopped off the fish head with a knife, cleaned the black film and internal organs in the treasure fish, sliced ​​the fish meat, and let the three beasts share the fish bones and internal organs.

The fish meat was put into the pot and quickly turned white and floated.

Liang Qu had only seen ox-headed fish in books and had never eaten it. He didn't know how effective it was and whether it would be stronger than ox-horned pomfret.

[Water Essence +2.4]

[Water Essence +2]

After swallowing the whole ox-head fish, it contributed 42 points of water essence, and the fusion degree increased by half a point.

The fish meat in the stomach turned into pure tonic, and the blood and qi in the whole body rose. Liang Qu gathered all the blood and qi into the marrow, and the blood was like a tide, surging.

It was really hot.

After practicing the blood barrier three times, Liang Qu took off his upper body clothes and jumped into the water to help his body dissipate heat.

I didn't expect that a ox-head fish had such a good tonic effect, which was half stronger than the ox-horned pomfret. It was one day closer to breaking through the fourth barrier.

Liang Qu used to think that the treasure fish was the infancy of the spirit monster, but later he read more books and realized that they were not the same thing.

The treasure fish is the treasure fish, and the spirit monster is the spirit monster. The two are not related.

Any fish may accidentally eat natural treasures, break through its own limitations, and turn into a spirit monster.

But the treasure fish is a spiritual creature born and raised by nature.

Some rare and precious treasure fish can contribute the blood and flesh energy that can only be obtained by swallowing a whole monster.

Some are full of treasures, such as the ox-horned pomfret. A pair of fish horns can be ground into powder and used as medicine to stimulate the blood and qi of the warrior's whole body, and used to make violent blood pills and blood-activating pills.

The water essence contained in a pound of fish meat is several times that of ordinary monsters, and the meat quality is much better.

Many monsters taste like raw beef, old and hard, with a persistent fishy smell.

Unfortunately, monsters are everywhere. Go deep into the water. You can kill four or five in one night, which is too much for a meal. Treasure fish are not so easy to find.

So far, the level of catching treasure fish by fat catfish is at the baseline of one every two days.

Splash!

After eating and drinking, the three beasts surfaced, full of energy.

Liang Qu cleaned up the cabin, put the pots and bowls in the water compartment, tied them with ropes, and continued on the road.

At the current speed, they will arrive in Fengbu County tomorrow morning.
