Becoming a God Starting from a Water Monkey

"Sir Liang, all the snake scales on the back of the snake monster are here. We have asked the master of alchemy Gu Chi to prepare the snake bones. The ministers and assistants still need to prepare the auxiliary materials. We are determined to refine them all before May."

The steward of the Zhang family found Liang Qu and handed over the peeled and processed snake scales.

Open the wooden box.

The tanned snake scales were neatly stacked, surging with a dark green luster.

Liang Qu saw something wrong: "Just one box?"

Although only the spine is the hardest part, with the length of the snake monster's body, there shouldn't be only one wooden box, right?

"Sir, you misunderstood."

The steward quickly asked someone to move two more square boxes.

When he opened it, Liang Qu raised his eyebrows.

The snake scales in the box were tied up like hedgehogs, and the dense and continuous scales made people feel terrified.

The steward explained: "The snake exploded before it died, and it was completely stiff after death. After tanning, the scales in many places still cannot close. Our master is still trying to deal with it and strive to soak it."

Liang Qu stretched out his hand and pressed it, and the snake scales bounced up again in an instant.

It is conceivable how frightened the owner of the scales was when he was alive.

He was defeated in life, but he was stubborn and unyielding after death.

Liang Qu did not force it: "Try again, if it doesn't work, forget it."

"My lord is magnanimous."

"Oh, and there is a snake gall under the bed in my room, you go and take it out and help me steam it thoroughly."

"My lord, wait a moment."

Everyone left, leaving Liang Qu alone in the courtyard to activate his muscles and bones and stretch his blood.

...

Pingyang Prefecture.

Yixing Town.

Wine invitations were flying in the high pavilion, and pedestrians were shoulder to shoulder.

Martial artists from other places carrying bags came and went from the door of the inn, hoping to win a bright future.

Yixing County became a prefecture, and the changes were invisible. Many shops that had never been seen were opened in full swing. In Yixing Town alone, there were three inns under construction and two flower shops, with lights on day and night.

There were even brothels, with puppet shows, shadow plays, acrobatics... unheard of. The peddlers who carried fish to sell every day could not help but watch for two quarters of an hour, and then went to the entrance of the Long River to feast their eyes.

The river was full of pleasure boats. During the day, you could often see the boat girls who had just woken up sitting on the side of the boat, lifting their skirts, and their white and delicate calves immersed in the water, creating ripples.

If these had little to do with ordinary people, the arrival of a large number of merchant caravans also caused the price of rice to drop by one cent per catty, and the price of firewood to drop by one cent per bundle.

Perhaps the price drop was only temporary, but it was enough to make the villagers truly feel the joy of change.

In front of the government office of the river and mooring station.

Merchant ships came and went in the big marsh, and the river officials registered the information and checked the goods in turn.

The postman on the shore whipped his horse and jumped over the long bluestone street and entered the backyard.

The packages were unpacked and distributed to each study by the chief clerk.

For a long time.

Bang!

Ran Zhongshi rushed out of the study, turned into a shadow, and went straight to the third floor.

Many martial artists on the ground floor noticed and talked about it, wondering what kind of big thing had happened.

The door of the study was wide open.

Xu Yuelong sorted out the fish hooks without looking up.

"What's the matter? Did the Ghost Mother Cult Martial Saint call?"

Ran Zhongshi raised the letter in his hand: "A Shui replied!"

Bang!

Xu Yuelong closed the wooden box and stood up. Seeing Ran Zhongshi's expression, his heart skipped a beat.

"Did it work?"

"It worked!"

"I'll test it!"

Xu Yuelong stood up suddenly, came to Ran Zhongshi, took the letter, and read it at a glance.

The whole article was written in vernacular, and it was indeed written by that kid.

"How did you do it? Tell me!"

Ran Zhongshi said in rapid succession: "It is said that he helped a white ape underwater a few years ago, and then he became friends with the big ape. It was not Shui who solved the big snake in Xiangyi County this time, but the white ape!

The big snake was no match at all. It has been dragged ashore and made into consumables. Shui also said that he would treat us to snake gall wine. Oh, yes, there is a snake scale in the letter bag."

Xu Yuelong emptied the letter bag, and a dark green snake scale half the size of a palm fell out.

The faint residual breath proved that it was a snake demon!

"White ape?" Xu Yuelong looked wonderful, pinching the snake scale, "This kid is really good at hiding, no wonder he dared to issue a military order, damn, he made me worry for so long in vain."

"Military order?"

"Read it yourself."

Xu Yuelong came to the bookshelf and took out a letter of guarantee.

He didn't tell anyone about Liang Qu's military order, he just took the task, and few people even knew who was going to Xiangyi County to deal with the snake monster.

It's not that he wants to take the blame for Liang Qu.

He pushed himself and fell, and he sighed.

Last year, when the Huazhu County dam collapsed, Xu Yuelong had already stopped serving once. If the snake monster went crazy again, it would be difficult to deal with it. At least he would be demoted, but he thought that he could delay it for a while, and use the military order to shift the blame if something really happened.

In this way, if Liang Qu got into trouble, there would not be many people who knew about it, and there would be more room for maneuver.

After all, Uncle Yang had worked hard and made great contributions. Before the fermentation, he might be able to use his connections to save his disciple's life.

Ran Zhongshi glanced at the letter of guarantee and was dumbfounded.

This move was too bold.

To put it bluntly, brothers are sometimes unreliable, let alone monsters.

After all, the white ape is the white ape, and the monster is the monster. Liang Qu's military order is equivalent to entrusting his life and death to a beast with whom he had a friendship!

Ran Zhongshi put away the military order: "If you keep thinking about it, there will be a response. Ah Shui has made a great contribution again!"

A gambler loses everything if he loses, and gets everything if he wins.

The court does not look at the process, but only at the result. The snake demon has been solved, and this is the result.

Three tiger hunting masters deal with a snake demon, and the credit is only so much, which is a hard job. If it is changed to a wolf smoke master...

"This kid is going to be promoted again."

Xu Yuelong slammed his fingers on the table.

He couldn't estimate how much merit he could get by killing the snake demon, but promotion was inevitable.

"Polish the letter and post it for Wei Lin's people to see."

"Good!"

Ran Zhongshi was very proud and was about to go out, but was suddenly stopped by Xu Yuelong.

"Why?"

"Is the white ape a water beast?"

Xu Yuelong suddenly asked.

Ran Zhongshi hesitated.

"Should it be?"

After a while.

Ran Zhongshi took the polished letter to the first floor, picked up the letter opener on the central notice board, pierced the snake scales with one knife, nailed the scales and the letter to the board, and turned away.

Such a strange move attracted a large number of martial artists to watch.

A moment.

The huge stone was thrown into the water, and the waves rolled.

Damn!

The Liang surname has made two merits again!

Xiangyi County.

Liang Qu didn't know that his letter had caused a sensation in Hebo, attracting countless people's envy.

He was sitting cross-legged, looking at a huge snake gall that needed to be embraced and exuded a strong "bitter" taste.

If it smells like this, what's wrong with eating it?

Thinking of the huge amount of essence of the sturgeon dragon tendon, Liang Qu used his nose to recognize the bitterness and turned it into a burst of fragrance. He scooped out a piece with a spoon and swallowed it in one gulp.

"Ugh~"

The strong bitterness rushed straight to the top of his head, and the hair on his body stood up. Every muscle of his tongue was twitching and jumping.

The veins on Liang Qu's forehead were throbbing, and he couldn't stop dry heaving. He gasped for air, raised his head sharply, and swallowed it forcefully.

It was bitter to eat~

Liang Qu endured the bitterness, hugged the snake gall, and swallowed it in big mouthfuls.

[Water Essence +86]

[Water Essence +92]

...

The snake gall entered his stomach, and his body became warm.

The central Chong Meridian swallowed a lot of qi and blood.

Liang Qu was sweating profusely while eating. Finally, after eating a small part, he had a sudden inspiration and felt that his meridians were opened.
