Becoming a God Starting from a Water Monkey
Chapter 152: A Hundred-foot-high Pole
In the early morning, mist covered the Jianghuai Daze.
More than a dozen small boats formed a crooked line.
It rained heavily last night and the river wind was very strong. Everyone was very sleepy and the boat line seemed quite messy.
"Give in, everyone, give in!"
Someone wearing a bamboo hat rowed the famous boat and shouted all the way, asking the boats in the middle to move to both sides and get out of the river.
A few strong men were dozing off. After hearing this, they became energetic and grabbed the rowing gang to ask questions.
"But the river officer of the river park?"
"What? Are you here already?"
One person opened his raincoat and stood up from the boat.
The man holding the boat shook his head: "Not coming, there are mackerel coming over."
"ah?"
The coir raincoat was put on again and he went to sleep.
The rest of the people were in low spirits.
"Have a rest, it's a merchant ship, brothers, it's too early to be happy."
"Oh, it's all gone. It's boring."
"Liu San, go paddle and get out of the way of the river."
Several small boats in the middle moved closer to both sides, leaving a wide river channel.
Three large flat boats sailed out of the mist. After the heavy rain, the smoke on the boats curled up. The rainwater flowed from the sides of the boats along the ditch into the swamp. The mist hung on the boats and condensed into dew.
A typical merchant ship has a huge bow standing high, and the sides of the ship are tilted upward along the hull. It is more than ten feet long and about six feet wide. Just one ship can hold more than two thousand stones of grain.
Fishermen call this kind of boat mackerel because it looks as thick and flat as mackerel and swims faster.
"Brother, please tell me what's so big, such a big battle?"
Leaning half of his body from the edge of the boat was a bearded steward.
"Don't pry when you shouldn't!"
After being choked, the steward didn't show much anger and cupped his hands: "Brother, don't blame me, I'm just curious."
"I'm sorry, boss. My brothers are all generous. I spoke a bit too hastily. I hope you don't mind paying this little money to treat the brothers to drinks."
The loud voice sounded from far to near, and a money bag turned into a stream of light, crossing a curve in the mist, and hit the steward's palm.
After several leaps, a figure arrived at the boat.
"Gang leader!"
The man who had just spoken stood up with a sudden sound, and the whole boat was shaking.
The other men also stood up one after another.
The steward on the boat took the money bag and weighed it with his hands. He held eleven or two coins in his hands and disappeared along the edge of the ship.
"Gang leader, did I say something wrong?" The man who stood up first asked hurriedly.
Liu Jie pointed to the flag on the departing merchant ship: "Did you see that flag? What's the word on it?"
The man scratched his forehead and shook his head.
"I know you're illiterate, so I don't blame you." Liu Jie laughed and shook his head, "That's the name of Kangji, Tongji and Huiji. If the word "Ji" is included, it means it's the ship of Hengren caravan, Hengren The caravan is much more powerful than us, do you understand?"
The man nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, I know you are working hard, let the brothers come back and change shifts." Liu Qiao patted the man on the shoulder and took out the second money bag from his arms, "Take the brothers to eat something good and drink a few cups."
Everyone was overjoyed.
"Thank you, leader!"
Taking advantage of Xiaozhou's gang to quickly spread the news, cheers came from the Jianghuai River.
More than a dozen small boats moved towards the shore.
Some people got off the boat, and some got on the boat, changing guard with the brothers on the shore, and saying hello to the other two gang leaders one after another.
"Second gang leader, third gang leader!"
Liu Yi and Zheng Tiantian nodded.
When everyone on the shore dispersed, Liu Yi stepped forward and said, "Brother, has the official position been settled?"
Liu Jie shook his head: "Fat Du didn't agree. He just relaxed and said that he would recommend Wenyang. Whether it will happen or not is yet to be seen."
"Damn it!" Zheng Tiantian was so angry that he punched the tree trunk, and the thick willow tree exploded into pieces and stuck into the soil. "Half of the money is given to them every year, but it's so difficult to get a ninth-grade official position! It's really hard! I want to roast all the fat out of that fat man’s body with fire!”
"Killing an official and killing a Guizhou leader are two different things." Liu Yi, the second gang leader, sneered, "He dares to do this because we have no official status. He is afraid of us, our people, and our abilities."
"At least there is some hope. Fatty Du can stay with us for at most two more years. When I try harder next year, it will almost be done. He will take the benefits and take office elsewhere, leaving us to deal with the next county magistrate."
"I thought that making so much money every year was just because I got ahead, but I didn't expect..." Zheng Tiantian was exhausted physically and mentally, "Those officials' children started at the eighth or seventh level. We need to do a small inspection. Take out your heart, liver, and lungs."
"Stop talking about this, haven't the people from Hebo arrived yet?"
Zheng Tiantian shook his head: "It's been seven or eight days and I haven't touched it."
"Come and go, it's time..."
"It's a good thing he didn't arrive." Liu Yi said with a smile, "It means that the officer at the Hebo Office is just like Fatty Du. He can't tell where to have a drink. He has to be meticulous to make it difficult to talk."
Seeing what Fatty Du did, Liu Jie nodded thoughtfully.
Everything must be discussed first until both parties are satisfied.
If we really can't reach an agreement...
Then we can only talk to someone else.
The water is rippling.
The midday sun penetrates the water layer and twists into swaying arcs in the flowing water waves.
Liang Qu sat cross-legged on top of the boulder, with his tied black hair flying in the waves. His aura was restrained, almost blending into the boulder. As his energy and blood flowed, threads merged into his marrow.
Several small fish swam past and ate the algae growing under the boulders.
The shadow silently enveloped the fish. The fat catfish opened its mouth, stretched out its tentacles, and rolled up the small fish before it could react, throwing it out of the water.
Liang Qu opened his eyes.
The fat catfish turned its eyes back and spit out a pure white treasure fish with blue stripes on the side.
After regaining its freedom, the treasure fish showed an extremely fast escape speed, but unfortunately it was trapped in place by the water flow before it jumped out one meter.
The water waves flowed, pushing the treasure fish to Liang Qu's hand.
"Blue-striped fish, the types of treasure fish around Fengbu County are quite different from those in Pingyang County."
Liang Qu stretched out his hand to pinch the blue-striped fish, returned to the boat, cut it open, and shared it with the beasts.
[Water Essence +6]
The whole blue-striped fish was not very big, only a little over two pounds, and only seven or eight taels of good meat were left after removing the bones and internal organs.
Liang Qu finished eating the blue-striped fish and cracked two cockscomb fruits.
Eating three cockscomb fruits a day is the best, and this fruit has an excellent preservation effect. It can be stored for more than ten days even in midsummer.
Liang Qu exchanged fifteen of them before he came out, which was enough for five days, and he was almost finished now.
He added all 25 points of water essence to the fusion degree, and the precious medicine itself began to work. The blood in the body was filled again, and it was another two blood refinings.
A little strange feeling was generated in the marrow, and it was full and about to overflow.
Liang Qu's heart was moved.
The warrior's intuition told him that he only needed two or three more blood refinings to break the blood barrier!
Not only that.
Liang Qu communicated with the Ze Ding, and the four beasts evolved conditions.
[1.2 points of water essence can be consumed to evolve the hornwood crocodile into a hornwood crocodile]
[2.6 points of water essence can be consumed to evolve the tiger catfish into a powerful tiger catfish]
[3.6 points of water essence can be consumed to evolve the rock crab into the king of rock crabs]
[4.7 points of water essence can be consumed to evolve the sky water centipede into a double-winged sky water centipede]
Liang Qu took out the only two remaining cockscomb fruits and divided them into four parts.
Even if Liu Jie had a hundred tricks, he would have to drown in this Jianghuai water marsh!
