Chapter 738 Double Happiness
Chapter 738 Double Happiness
At the end of June, it rained heavily.
Otter opened the upside-down wooden barrel and sat on the edge of the field, threading red earthworms on the iron hook.
The frogs in the rice fields jumped to the tips of the leaves, opened their mouths wide to bathe in the rain, moistened their skin, and breathed freely. Whenever someone stepped on them, dozens of them would be startled and run around in panic.
"Hey!"
Xiao Shunzi led Xiao Kui and Wen Shiyun, jumped down, carefully clenched their palms, and pulled them in front of him.
With hands full of mud and grass clippings, his little fingers loosened one by one, and between his curled up index fingers, there was a dark brown, panting little frog.
"for you!"
Xiao Shunzi pinched the frog's legs.
Wen Shiyun opened his eyes wide and took this hard-earned creature as if it were a treasure.
The two saints returned from the sea and arrived in Pingyang, which was a rare opportunity for communication.
Therefore, after the King of Yue finished dealing with the dragon matter, he did not return to Ningjiang, but instead went to tour Pingyang with the King of Su and the King of Bohai. Within two days, Wen Shiyun was sent over by Zhang Xu's steward to live in Liang's house.
In the water dozens of meters away from the three people, Liang Qu slid down with his back against the tentacles and landed in the middle. Haifangzhu arched his tentacles and let Liang Qu slide down again, like a slide.
"Pengze Monster Leader, General Yuan... I have heard of him. He is the black alligator turtle that got the blood of Jianghuai Dragon King in the past. I wanted to trade him before, but I couldn't find the monster. How could Xiaoshui have such a way?"
"It was a coincidence. It was a stubborn old man who was not easy to talk to. He promised to summon the big monster of Pengze for business, and there was another important deal to be discussed separately. When the time comes, the owner of the temple can use this tortoise shell to stimulate the aura and summon General Yuan."
Liang Qu held up a half-human-sized piece of armor, which had the same scent of an old turtle as the birthday gift he had received in Huangzhou.
The old turtle agreed to rent the land, but he was worried about the man himself. He was afraid that he might say something wrong or let out a word or two, which would make people doubt the existence of the time sequence. So he had to negotiate and deal in person.
In his opinion, it's just worrying about nothing.
There are five difficulties in eating air. The “seeking” and “collecting” in the middle are not just for show.
Even if one perceives and receives it, and travels thousands of miles and overcomes numerous difficulties and obstacles, not everyone has the means to see the long-term effect at a glance.
But who can blame him for being a big landlord?
"Xiao Shui is so amazing!"
Cool against the face.
Umibozu jumped and danced with joy, one foot wrapped around the scales of armor and the other foot delivered a bright red precious fish.
Crackling.
Another big blood lion weighing more than twelve kilograms!
"Thank you, Master!"
Blood lion fish.
Delicious.
So far, this is the top-grade precious fish Liang Qu has ever seen. Compared with it, red blood bass, tiger grouper, and ox-horn pomfret are not even worth mentioning. A twelve-pound blood lion has 10,000 essences in its meat alone!
It is not difficult to earn 17,000 or 18,000 yuan for the whole fish, and it is even worth making medicine and elixir for it.
pity.
With the arrival of sea merchants, a large number of goods flooded into the market. Well-known alchemists on the market were fully booked and worked overtime. It was said that the quota for good alchemists was already two months later, and those who jumped the queue would have to pay an extra fee.
Besides, I’m poor!
Three melons and two dates, jingle bells...
A few days ago, I asked Lu Jia to find a piece of top-grade mutton-fat jade and "forge" it again. Even if it was sold to an acquaintance, the price would be more than three thousand. The silver in his hand completely fell below the ten thousand taels mark and was now more than eight thousand.
There are no more households worth ten thousand or two.
It's been more than half a year, why hasn't Quan Linghan shown any sign of appreciation during the holidays?
Where did the protection money go?
Liang Qu gave up his share of the Jiao Silk dividends to let the mermaids earn more, in order to exchange silver for essence. Unexpectedly, Quan Linghan not only got no more essence, but also lost his original share of the Mermaid Tears in a few months.
Just eat it.
If you don't make the elixir, you can just take out the internal organs and fish bones and you guys can get a share.
Avoiding the poisonous stinger and pinching the fish's gills, Liang Qu stepped on the tentacles of Haifangzhu to reach the shore.
"Stop playing! Go back and take a shower. Be careful of catching a cold!"
Upon hearing this, Wen Shiyun dropped the frog in his hand. The three of them rolled up their trouser legs and moved out of the rice field little by little. Taotaokai followed behind with two full buckets of lobsters.
After patting their backs and drying the water off their clothes, Liang Qu led the children in a line to go home.
Gumbling.
Sparks flew and the soup boiled.
Sprinkle chopped green onion and coriander on the fried dough.
Wen Shiyun, Xiao Shunzi and Xiao Kui soaked in the hot water and leaned on the window to smell the fragrance.
In the pond.
Awei sucked all the blood, and his bloated belly shrank in the blink of an eye.
The fat catfish, the fist and the roundhead fish shared the residue equally. The latter two animals ate it all in one gulp. Only Ah Fei swallowed the fish entrails without swallowing them, and smacked his lips repeatedly, as if he could get more essence from it by chewing non-stop.
[Water Essence +11041]
【Water Essence; 83,000】
Liang Qu opened his eyes, and his muscles and bones vibrated.
Satisfied.
140,000 turned into 80,000, which seemed to be less, but actually the 70,000 essences did not disappear, but turned into an "immobile" companion at the level of a monster. This was a net profit of 10,000!
Umibozu doesn't know the old turtle's abilities or the content of the transaction yet. He will definitely give more benefits when he comes back in August.
Thinking.
Ze Ding trembled.
The long energy of nature sways slowly.
[After a few days and four seasons, the essence of three thousand waters can be consumed and condensed into the seeds of creation.]
Don't be alarmed or panic.
Seed of creation, one per season.
I was blessed with life in late March. I have experienced a full spring so far and it is time to give birth to a child.
The thought moves lightly, green seeds fall, and the waves ripple lightly.
[Seed of Creation: 2]
[Water Essence: 80,000]
……
July 4th.
The drizzle is falling.
The crab rises and falls, and the salamander enters the sea.
Haifangzhu waved goodbye, and Liang Qu watched the blue monster disappear from the water.
The merchant team left in an orderly manner, leaving Pingyang Prefecture in a mighty manner and rushing to Pengze. Although retail business is good, bulk trading is more attractive.
The next time we meet won’t be too far away. After going upstream, we still need to go downstream.
July 12th.
The humid mist mixed with hot sweat stuck to my body. It was so humid and stuffy that I really couldn't concentrate on working.
"Bing is on fire! Bing is on fire!"
"What a scorching sun!"
"It's time to dry the quilts. It's been raining for more than half a month and the house is getting moldy."
"Yeah!"
"It's hot, really hot. I don't feel like working at all..."
The people were noisy and noisy, stopping to look up at the sky, and the noise was like a tide that surged over the walls.
Liang Qu sat in the courtyard, with the [Rattan Soldier] transformed into a rattan chair under him, and witnessed with his own eyes the dark and rainy courtyard become bright and dazzling.
The blazing red sun in the sky looked like molten iron, evenly dripping from below to give birth to a second scorching sun.
There is white light and fire everywhere in the world.
The plum blossom season has not yet ended, but two suns came out together, instantly drying up all the dark clouds in the sky.
The shadows swayed, creating a breeze.
Long Yao and Long Li also passed by with bedding in their arms, helping Aunt Li to tie the rope to dry them.
"finally come……"
Liang Qu looked at me with burning eyes and sat up from the rattan chair.
The highlight of the year!
A big guarantee every year!
Bing Fire Day!
"I wonder if there will be moonlight..."
Feeling expectant but anxious.
According to the proportion of the powerful Meng leaders in the imperial capital, the Bing Fire, which only occurs once every twenty years, will also greatly increase the moonlight. This year, there should be not only sunlight but also moonlight!
However, Liang Qu was not sure whether the "fluff" of the moonlight every year had been collected and stored by Ze Ding, waiting for more "fluff" to combine, because the long energy of creation had no reaction.
In Weishan Lake, the "fluff" of rain and dew helped hatch a seed of good fortune.
Nature can make use of the remaining "fluff".
For this reason, he could only hope that he would be "not acclimatized" - the creation of the water and wood attributes could not absorb the essence of the sun and the moon.
The water stains on the bluestone bricks are baked and evaporated, revealing their original grayish-white color.
The changes of the sun and the moon, the shifting of the scenery.
The longest wait ever.
Late July.
A long wisp of red air emerged from the cauldron.
[If you get a ray of red energy, you will be given 10,000...]
"No?"
Liang Qu gazed at the sun in the sky and felt worried.
We make money every year, and no one will complain that it’s too much.
With one more wisp of energy and one more dragon master, your own safety will be greatly guaranteed.
"Wait a little longer, wait a little longer..."
The crow flies and the rabbit runs.
Early August.
Sunset glow.
The cicadas are chirping desperately.
The surface of the river was surging with heat waves, and the sky and the earth were like a steamer.
The Bing Fire Days, which last for about twenty days, are coming to an end.
The rattan chair was so hot that his butt was burning in the sun. Liang Qu couldn't calm down at all and kept pacing around the yard.
"What is the elder worried about?" Long Eying asked.
"I?"
"I've noticed that you've been looking at the sun and the moon a lot lately, and you're always frowning. If you're troubled, why not tell me about it?"
"This……"
Liang Qu scratched his temples.
"It's not a big deal..."
Before he could finish his words, the setting sun in the sky gradually dimmed and the bright moon hung high in the sky, casting a silver glow.
Sunset and moonrise.
The Ze Ding Meng scatters brilliance, like water and waves.
hiss!
This is……
Liang Qu's heart trembled slightly, he stopped talking and held his breath.
Until I saw with my own eyes the light condensing inside the tripod, like a butterfly breaking out of its cocoon, or buds growing on an old tree, and two thin threads emerged and slowly floated around!
[Get a ray of the sun’s long breath…]
[A wisp of Taiyin's long energy...]
Two strands!!!
There are actually two strands? ?
The huge surprise surges like a river.
Liang Qu was overjoyed, but before he could think it over, the third prince rushed in and told him that a mermaid had appeared in the pond.
Mermaid?
Long time no see, could it be...
Letting Long Eying wait for a while, Liang Qu quickly moved to the courtyard.
"Chief Quan! How come you have time to come here tonight?"
Quan Linghan clasped his hands together and presented a bulging small leather bag.
"Sir, we have fulfilled your mission. The Quan and Leng tribes will present a total of 100 mermaid tears to you!"
