Becoming a God Starting from a Water Monkey

The curses were mixed in with the sound of the wind.

Strange.

Shouldn't it be the beauty's giggle?

Why is it the laughter of a grown man?

Liang Qu fell into deep thought.

Ran Zhongshi boarded the pleasure boat first, and Liang Qu, who had come to his senses, followed closely.

The rowing man tied up the boat, jumped onto the deck, and pulled the boat rope to collect the boat.

Ran Zhongshi gestured, and the man turned and entered the boat room.

Liang Qu was very sensitive to the flow of water.

The pleasure boat was moving.

"Let's go, we should be the only one missing."

Liang Qu nodded, followed Ran Zhongshi to the second floor, pushed open the door, and the noise came like a tide.

The floor was covered with the unique mountain pattern of nanmu, and several large jars were placed on the ground in a messy and casual manner. The thin body was covered with a layer of red glaze, mixed with light blue gradient patterns, and only the word "wine" was written on the neck of the jar, with rich colors.

There was not a single maid in the whole hall, a total of thirteen people, and the only woman was Ran Zhongshi's sister Ran Ying.

Everyone was sitting randomly, rocking on the armchair, lying on the Luohan bed, there were low-legged tables everywhere, filled with all kinds of fruits, plum blossom stoves spewing white sandalwood smoke, and a few people gathered in the corner, seemingly playing cards.

Very cool.

Liang Qu's first feeling.

It was noon, the weather was hot and humid, but it was unusually cool inside.

It was not like the ice jar, which did not have this effect, and there was no ice jar in the room.

"Zhongshi! Why are you here now!"

"Didn't I say, bring a new person."

Ran Zhongshi stepped aside half a step to let Liang Qu behind him.

Xiang Fangsu, who was lying on the armchair, sat up: "Oh, the one who picked out the Whale Gang?"

"Otherwise, can I bring someone else here?"

Liang Qu stepped forward and bowed: "My Lords..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xiang Fangsu: "Boy, how old are you this year?"

"Almost seventeen."

Xiang Fangsu looked at the young man in white who was flipping through a book in another corner: "Yinbin, how old are you this year?"

Bai Yinbin put down the book: "Twenty-six."

"Ha! Yinbin, you are not the youngest!"

"See, boy, the youngest among us is twenty-six, you have to call all of us brothers!"

Ran Zhongshi nodded in agreement.

"No need to be reserved. We are family here. You can call me and Brother Xu whatever you want. Let me introduce you. This is Xiang Fangsu, the third son of the Marquis of Ji'an."

"Brother Xiang."

"Bai Yinbin, the eldest grandson of the Marquis of Changxing, whose father is the current vice minister of the Ministry of War."

"Brother Bai."

...

"You know her, my sister, Ran Ying."

"Sister Ran."

...

All the big guys.

Some of them Liang Qu remembered, having met them before in Fengbu County.

Ran Zhongshi patted Liang Qu on the shoulder.

"Brother Liang Qu, the ninth disciple of Brother Xu and Uncle Yang, a genius who killed the horse at the age of 16. You all knew it before."

After that, Ran Zhongshi found a stool and pushed Liang Qu down.

Xiang Fangsu followed up, "Zhongshi is right. It's everyone's idea to ask you to come. Don't be shy. We don't have maids or servants here.

Be more casual. It will take a while for dinner. If you are hungry, take what you want. Try these lychees. They are the 'glutinous rice' sent from Lingnan this morning. They are the latest crop in May."

Xiang Fangsu brought a plate of lychees to Liang Qu. Water drops hung on the round red shells.

"Thank you, Brother Xiang."

After some politeness, Liang Qu sat down next to Ran Zhongshi.

Everyone was very enthusiastic, but it was more comfortable to be with someone you knew.

Ran Zhongshi looked around: "Where is Brother Xu? Why didn't I see him when I came up just now?"

"Look, isn't he over there?" Xiang Fangsu pointed to the window, "He is fishing. He said he got some special bait from the Yiyu Gang and has been making nests."

"It's so hot, you are really not afraid of the sun."

Liang Qu just listened and saw a teacup on the low table, so he poured himself a glass of water.

It tastes slightly sweet, not tea leaves, but juice squeezed from some kind of fruit juice.

[Water Essence +0.9]?

Liang Qu turned the teacup, looked it up and down, and drank a few more sips.

[Water Essence +0.9]

[Water Essence +1.1]

Is the juice squeezed from some kind of precious plant?

Liang Qu silently refilled his cup and observed the conversation.

He was the youngest and didn't understand much when he first arrived, so he listened more and talked less.

As he listened, he slowly understood the nature of the gathering.

"Originally, the third bridge could have been condensed this month, but I received a mission and failed to condense it."

"I told you that you said this month last time, but you still denied it!"

"This time, the Dry Fish Gang made a big splash for us. Last time, I saw Ao Weijun's face opposite, it was so dark, haha!"

"The Fish Gang is a one-time business, and it's gone after the work is done. If we divide it equally, each of us will get a great merit. In fact, it's all thanks to Brother Liang. My mother sent me a few ice platforms yesterday, and I will send one to Brother Liang another day."

Liang Qu didn't know what an ice platform was, but he still thanked her.

"The biggest part of the credit still goes to the Ghost Mother Sect, but unfortunately the people of the Ghost Mother Sect have shrunk a lot, and it's not as easy to find as it was at the beginning."

"Two days ago, I found a river island. There seemed to be someone on it. I didn't dare to go up to explore it myself. Is there anyone who wants to follow me?"

"Me, I just happen to have nothing to do in the past two days."

"Add me."

"By the way, I heard that someone in Huazhu County was retaliated by the Ghost Mother Sect?"

"Revenge, is it true or not?"

"We have to plan a mission and send someone over to see what's going on."

It was really an exchange meeting...

All come to supervise each other, communicate, and exchange gains.

Especially how to defeat the Wei Linyi faction and search for traces of the Ghost Mother Cult.

Damn it, everyone is so curly, right?

Liang Qu originally thought it was a carnival of three and two generations, but when he came to see it, it turned out to be a struggle conference?

After a while, he declined the invitation to play cards and sneaked out to have some fun.

Xu Yuelong tilted his head: "What, you're not used to being in there?"

"A little."

"It's okay. This is the first time. It'll be fine after you get used to it twice."

Xu Yuelong reached into the wooden barrel on the side, grabbed a yellow ball, and threw it into the river.

Liang Qu stared at the barrel and asked curiously.

"Brother Xu, where did you get this bait?"

"Oh, this, I asked a fisherman to get it. I heard it's very powerful. With this bait, they can harvest four or five times more fish every day than the other fishermen!"

Bait, fishermen, four or five times the fish catch...

An inexplicable sense of déjà vu came to Liang Qu's heart. He now had a large vat at his house. Every day Uncle Chen would come over and dig out a bucket and take it away. When it was empty, he would refill it.

etc!

Liang Qu suddenly remembered that Uncle Chen came to his door a few days ago and asked him if a rich man wanted to buy some bait and could he sell it.

He didn't think much about it at the time and let Uncle Chen figure it out.

It's just yellow mud anyway, so it's no big deal if someone takes it away. Once you've been taken advantage of once, you won't do it again.

The results were unexpected.

The rich man came almost every day, so he had to replenish the yellow mud every now and then and made a lot of money.

Now think about it...

Liang Qu's eyes became serious.

"Brother Xu, do you really think this bait of yours is useful?"

"Yes, of course."

Xu Yuelong vowed to do so.

"I've been able to catch one or two fish every day on average these two days! It's all thanks to this bait!"
