Chapter 719 Ask the Registrar First
The deck of the treasure ship is sparkling with rippling waves.
The otter laid his chest on the ground and reattached the scent.
Otter opened a small booklet and looked around, while the fat catfish banged on the bottom of the boat.
The cabins have not been completely repaired yet, but the bottom of the ship has been filled and the mast has been connected, so it can continue sailing.
After this incident, Liang Qu just wanted to return to his base as soon as possible.
"Three boxes are missing, but the important letters are still there. They were all kept in the secret compartment and are not wet," said Xiang Changsong.
"The ice cellar was pierced through and the beef and mutton were all soaked in water. I don't know if they can be eaten."
"There's nothing wrong with washing it. It's not a flood, and the river is clean. In the past, people in Pingyang Town washed vegetables by the river."
“That’s not a lot of stuff.”
"It may not be lost." Liang Qu shook his head. "A Fei and the others went to look for the box, but they couldn't find it. Maybe it was dissolved by Gray Wind on the spot."
The bulging letters, pills and the like are all valuable items and should not be treated carelessly.
Therefore, Liang Qu had placed all of them separately in a secret compartment in a quiet room beforehand, and none of them were lost when the ship sank. In fact, the secret compartment was well sealed and not soaked in water.
Most of the things in the three missing boxes were clothes, purses and even daily necessities. The gifts were more valuable than their value and there was nothing we could do about it as they were lost.
The loss is not big.
"Thank you, Governor Deng, for taking care of me."
"Lord Liang is too polite. It is because everyone in Cangzhou was careless and helpless that you were frightened this time. I know the itinerary and should have arranged for someone to greet and escort you. I will prepare a bed for you when you come again in the future!"
……
The Jianghuai Lake, on the floating island.
A thin black smoke rolled and flowed, and wherever it flowed through, trees withered, fish and shrimps floated up, and all living things were destroyed, with no sign of life. Even the birds in the sky were contaminated by the smoke and fell straight down.
Clang Clang Clang.
The boatmen beat gongs and drums and carried wooden buckets to feed the porpoises with delicious fish food as a reward.
Xiang Fangsu leaned against the railing and sighed.
"It's a pity that Ah Shui went to the capital to show off his power. Otherwise, why don't we go to the island and get some money from him?"
Ke Wenbin asked, "What about your method of warding off evil spirits? Didn't you say you practiced it?"
"I'm just a half-baked one. I don't have the time to practice it on weekdays. Who knows when I can use it? It just happened to be when Ah Shui is not here."
"You only regret not having enough when you have the time to use your knowledge." Ke Wenbin sighed, "Why hasn't Ah Shui come back yet? The imperial examination should have ended in April."
"Maybe he has already reached Pingyang Prefecture, we don't know."
Clang clang clang.
The cloud board rang.
The river official stepped on the gangplank and ran to tell others.
"Pass on the order from the Lord Ti Ling. Land on the island tomorrow at noon. Land on the island tomorrow at noon. No mistakes!"
"Okay, time to work!"
……
Mid April.
As the good news spread, the Hebo fleet, loaded with goods, set off westward in a mighty force.
In a few days.
Grain Rain in the second half of the month.
The seamless treasure ship docked at Shangrao Port, and its green hull sparkled in the sun.
The imperial capital was prosperous, and the common people were accustomed to luxury cars and treasure ships, but the villagers in Pingyang Prefecture were seeing them for the first time. Fishermen put down their fish baskets, and passers-by stopped to look at them, extremely curious.
"It's really impressive! But why is there no seam on this boat?"
"It's so smooth, is it made of jade?"
"Where did this noble man come from?"
"Hey, what noble? Master Liang, it's Master Liang." The young man in the fishing hut pointed and said, "Master Liang has changed his boat again! It must be a reward from His Majesty!"
Wow!
Mr. Liang!
Hearing the familiar name, Liang Qu stood on the deck. The cool river breeze blew on his face. Green grass sprouted from the soil. The emerald green branches and leaves stood in the wind, swaying gently. Seeing the familiar face greeting him, he felt a sense of comfort and relaxation in his heart.
From north to south, whether in terms of climate or mood, it seems as if we have suddenly entered spring from winter.
Pingyang Prefecture is far less prosperous than the imperial capital, but there is an indescribable sense of security.
finally arrived at home!
As usual, he dropped off a small silver ingot in the teahouse. "Please have some tea, folks!"
"it is good!"
"Mr. Liang is mighty!"
The crowd on the pier cheered and cheered,
The calm water surface is rippling with waves.
River and lake.
Xu Yuelong heard the commotion at Shangrao Port, opened the window, and saw the treasure ship in the distance. With such commotion, he immediately guessed who had returned. However, before he found Liang Qu, he felt somewhat familiar with the middle-aged man standing on the deck.
stunned.
"father?"
……
"That's about it. It was a safe bet."
In the study room on the top floor of Hebo House.
Yang Dongxiong, Su Guishan and Xu Wenzhu sat at the top, while Wei Lin, Xu Yuelong and other officials sat at the bottom.
Liang Qu told him everything about his experience on his return home.
After everyone digested the information, they looked at each other.
Dead silence.
Hunting tiger kills the master...
Everyone still remembers what Liang Qu looked like when they first met him.
A blink of an eye.
The youngest great martial artist of Dashun was not satisfied with this and turned around to kill another great master to help him get back on track?
Ran Zhongshi thought for a moment, and his eyes lit up: "No wonder the hexagram changed from a small ominous sign to a big ominous sign. Nanzhili urged us to send troops. After landing on the island, we thought a master had escaped, but it turned out that he ran to Cangzhou."
"Ning Chaoqing's father... It's no surprise that Nanzhili was able to detect the movements of the Ghost Mother Cult."
Xu Yuelong originally thought that the fortune-telling skills in Nanzhili had improved by leaps and bounds, but it turned out to be because of blood relations.
Using the son to predict the father's future, there is no closer relationship than this, but it is not always accurate.
Perhaps it was the moment Ning Chaoqing was arrested that led to everything that followed.
"If I had known this, I should have returned from Huangzhou first and headed north together."
"Master, what you said is wrong. There is no one in the world who can predict the future. If you survive a great disaster, you will have good fortune in the future. If you take action, I will not have these twenty great merits and good fortune, and I may not be able to wipe out this branch of the Ghost Mother Sect."
Although Yang Dongxiong is a newly promoted grandmaster and most likely cannot defeat the opponent, as long as there is a grandmaster on the boat, the opponent is unlikely to take action.
Those who can practice to the level of a master cherish their lives.
There is no absolute advantage in realm, no one can fight you one-on-one.
But in this case, Pingyang Prefecture would lack manpower.
The ending is generally a smooth return, and the branch of the Ghost Mother Cult is also safe and sound.
"Wait a minute, Ah Shui, besides the twenty great merits, what other good fortunes do you have?"
Liang Qu looked at Xu Wenzhu, and Xu Wenzhu nodded slightly.
"The Ghost Mother Cult can only do this for now. Jiaolong has issued a bounty, but he can't escape. Wait until the fleet returns..."
Listen to the description.
Everyone's eyes moved slightly.
There are many treasures in the water. If it can be done, everyone can get a piece of it.
"Three Martial Saints, can they do it?" Ran Zhongshi doubted. "Jiaolong is at the peak of the Monster King, and the King of Yue is only a newly promoted Martial Saint. Together with the other two veteran Martial Saints, I'm afraid they can barely hold their own. And Jiaolong and Beiyu are on good terms, so it will be two against three."
Ke Wenbin said, "Just because they have a good relationship doesn't mean they will work hard for Jiaolong, right?"
"No." Xu Yuelong shook his head. "The Jiaolong is at a critical juncture and can only advance and cannot retreat. If the Northern Fish Demon King doesn't want to be troubled in the future, he will definitely come. This is not just a matter of good or bad relations. Even the other two..."
Su Guishan shook his head: "Beiyu and Jiaolong are too close, so they can't turn against each other. You don't have to worry about the other two. There are more than just Jiaolong who can make things difficult for the Great Swamp Demon King. It's just a matter of cost."
Liang Qu stroked his chin and said, "Why not call the Toad King and the Turtle King?"
"We can try." Xu Yuelong nodded, "Besides, we can ask the military officer first."
"Recruiting a soldier?"
Liang Qu was stunned.
Who is this?
