Becoming a God Starting from a Water Monkey

"Where did you get this?"

"Underwater? Floating on your own? You took it back when you saw it glowing?"

Liang Qu taught the two beasts how to identify treasure fish by looking at whether they look different from ordinary fish, and whether their color and shape are unique and rare.

These words were deeply remembered by the two beasts. When they saw the glowing feathers, they knew that this thing was not a fish, but they still thought it was a good thing, so they brought it back.

The truth... is correct.

The feathers are very large, three feet long and one foot wide.

Liang Qu tried to reach out and touch it, but was forced back by the astonishing heat emanating from the feathers.

Good guy, it's so hot, no wonder both Ke Dong and Ah Fei dare not pick it back up, just like dumpling sweet potatoes.

Huge feathers, amazing heat.

Liang Qu immediately thought of the giant flaming bird flying in the sky during the battle between the two demons last night.

As expected, the feather fell off from its body and drifted here, where it was discovered by the two beasts.

Brother Toad, you did a good job, killing the big monster and letting me drink some soup and water.

Liang Qu controlled the water flow to roll up the feathers. After the heat dissipated, he could try to touch it directly.

The feathers are as hard as iron, with a cold sheen that shines brightly in the dark. The feathers are very soft and feel great to the touch, but they are too hot to touch without being rinsed with water to cool them down.

What's the use of a feather?

There is no water essence for birds and animals to ingest, so if you use it as a baby warmer, you have to worry about your clothes catching fire.

Liang Qu fell into deep thought and couldn't figure out how to use it.

But no matter what, the objects on the Great Demon must be very precious. Take them back and show them to your master and brothers. Maybe they will know how to use them.

Liang Qu did not hesitate to praise: "Well done! If you see something that is not a fish but is very abnormal in the future, you can bring it back."

The two beasts, who had been praised, started spinning in the water, stirring up violent currents.

After a while, Liang Qu came out of the water. Seeing that the sky was almost dark, he told him not to move and went back to guard the lotus roots, while the fat catfish explored the nearby waters more.

Especially in the nearby shallow water area, are there any sunken ships, human creations, treasures, treasure plants, treasure fish? It would be best if we can find the same feathers, or even a part of the great water beast.

Liang Qu wanted to know how much water essence a part of the body of such a big demon could possess.

You can explore not only the waters near Yixing City, but also the nearby Yunjiang Port and Pingyang Town.

Today's Ah Fei is quite huge, so as long as he doesn't enter the deep water rashly, he won't be in much danger.

After dragging his feathers and climbing back to the sampan, Liang Qu took a look into the waterproof compartment. In addition to ordinary fish species, there were two carps, a yellow croaker, and a tiger fish inside. They were all good fish species.

Back at the port, it was already dawn, and Liang Qu sold the fish to Lin Songbao.

"There don't seem to be many today, why are there only two baskets?" Lin Songbao helped move the fish baskets to the fishing pen. When he opened it, he was surprised, "Huo, so many good fish? One yellow croaker, two carp, and one tiger fish?" Did you stab the fish nest?"

"Good luck today."

"It's amazing. In winter, people catch less and less, but you catch more and more." Lin Songbao gave him a thumbs up, "I'll give you three hundred and forty-six coins in total, shall I give you three coins?"

Lin Songbao is not an idiot. Although his father didn't say anything, he also knew that Liang Qu must have undergone amazing changes. The discount given was even greater than before. Three coins of silver. Normal exchange for copper plates would cost 360 coins. .

"Thank you!"

"You're welcome. You happen to be here so I don't have to look for you. The restaurant has been booked for private room C in Langyun Building tonight. My father asked me to ask you if you want to send a carriage to pick you up."

Liang Qu wanted to show the feather to his senior brother, so he shook his head: "No, I will also go to town today.

"

"Okay, keep it, your money."

After getting the money, Liang Qu turned around and came to the boat. He soaked the linen clothes he took off with cold water, wrapped them in feathers and walked home. He passed by the fishing pen, where there were also people selling fish.

"Songbao, help me weigh it again. Is it wrong? Look at how big this fish is."

"Uncle Chen Hu, didn't you weigh it just now? Fifty-three cents is correct. After deducting 45% of the chartered fishing boat, it is thirty cents."

"This, this is too little, Songbao, raise your hand, please give me more, more." The dark-skinned middle-aged fisherman smiled and raised his hand vigorously, "My boy is only eight years old and is growing taller. Well, you’ve seen it, it’s just that big, I call you brother.”

"It's really not possible. I gave you an extra five cents last time, and my father scolded me when I got home. And Uncle Hu, you also know that the commission for Yunjiang Port next door is 50%."

"Why......"

On Qingshi Street, Liang Qu listened for a long time. The cold linen cloth in his hands felt hot before he slowly walked home.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the water temperature is even lower. Your hands will turn purple from freezing after being soaked in the water for a while.

Too cold, and fish's metabolism will slow down, reducing their need for food, and they will congregate in deeper water where it's warm enough.

It doesn't come out, it doesn't move, and it stays deep. With the fishing methods of fishermen, it's impossible to catch it. If it is caught, it can't be sold at a high price. Because the water flow is slow, the oxygen content is low, and the material circulation is small, the fish cannot be eaten. Thin and small...

The color of the bluestone is not as dark as it was two months ago. This is the case every winter, as if the brilliance of all things has been frozen and shrunk.

There are more women with sallow faces in the yellow mud lanes on both sides of the stone road than in autumn. They are wrapped in yellow old coats and curled up on the steps. Whenever the stone slabs are rolling, they will look up.

Liang Qu saw a girl of the same age as him sitting on the steps and smiling at him. Her malnourished face was thin and yellow, and her hair was dry like weeds. She was not pretty at all. He lowered his head and walked by expressionlessly.

In addition to the women in old coats, there are many more children in the yellow mud lane. They gathered together to burn dead firewood picked up from somewhere. The older ones were thirteen or fourteen years old, with sad faces, and the younger ones were only five or six years old, with long clear snot hanging from their noses. They played some finger games together.

There were also old women begging on the street.

"Huh~"

Thick fog spewed out from his mouth and nose, and Liang Qu stood there for a long time.

"Damn it!"

......

"Hey!"

Liang Qu shouted, put the oil paper bag on the ground, and turned away.

"What is this?" A boy walked forward, pinched his fingers to open the oil paper bag, and shouted, "Ah, buns, it's buns! Lots of buns, more than ten!"

"Great, it's hot buns."

"Don't grab, don't grab, we have everything."

"I'll share, I'll share, brother, you're the youngest, eat two."

......

A few alleys away, Liang Qu put down the oil paper bags one by one and walked away quickly.

Damn annoying.

The two cents of silver are gone.

Liang Qu suddenly got angry, without an object, without a reason, without a purpose, just angry.

Maybe he was angry at his excessive kindness, maybe he was angry at the fucking world, maybe he was angry at why those poor guys were hanging around in front of him.

It seemed like there was fire flowing in his blood vessels, the surroundings were cold, only he was hot like a charcoal.

After taking a few deep breaths, Liang Qu calmed down.

When he got home, he threw the giant demon feather wrapped in linen, which was almost dried, into the frozen water tank. Soon the ice melted and the cloth and feather were immersed in the water.

Liang Qu got ready and began to refine his skin.

The day of breaking through the barrier was getting closer and closer, almost the final step.

Now everything Liang Qu had could be described as an alternative "dog relying on others' power", but as long as he became a real warrior, he would rely on himself to complete the transformation, which was equivalent to an ordinary person becoming a scholar.

The blood flowed and suddenly spread to the limbs and bones, flowing towards the outermost membrane.

After a long time, the red skin gradually returned to its normal ruddy color.

Liang Qu could feel that his body had become tougher. Although there was no change to the touch, once attacked, some deep changes would occur and become very tough.

The improvement in strength made his depressed mood dissipate for the most part. He picked up the cakes he had bought before and went to Chen Qingjiang's house nearby.

It was two days late. Fortunately, the pastries I bought were mostly peach cakes, which are not easy to spoil in winter. There is not much change since I bought them.

Knock on the gate.

"Who is it?"

"Me!"

"It seems to be Ah Shui's voice. I'll go and see."

"Ah Shui? Qingjiang, you have to thank him."

"I know, Dad."

The sound of conversation came from the house.

A little head suddenly popped up on the low wall next to him: "Oh, it's Brother Shui!"

Liang Qu picked up the wooden box in his hand and shook it twice: "Shunzi, open the door for me, I'll give you something delicious to eat."

"I'm coming!"

Little Shunzi jumped off the stool, came to the gate of the yard and opened the door, and rushed over impatiently. Liang Qu smiled and opened the box, took out a piece of peach cake and stuffed it into Shunzi's hand.

"Hmm, so sweet!"

Shunzi stuffed it full in one mouthful, and held the fallen crumbs in the other hand, his face full of shock.

Chen Qingjiang had just arrived at the door and was shocked to see the Wufangzhai sign: "Ah Shui, why are you giving Shunzi such expensive food? It's a waste!"
