Chapter 760: Letter from the Fish's Belly
Chapter 760: Letter from the Fish's Belly
"Umibozu's sister, Umiyun?"
Liang Qu frowned.
Li Shoufu nodded: "When Lord Wei asked, she said this, I heard it clearly, it was real, in short, there are a lot of goods, and the things are right.
Although Hai Yun is not as powerful as Hai Fangzhu, he is also a master-level demon. Lord Wei means that we should continue our business as usual and not get involved in the internal affairs of the sea clan."
strangeness.
Business is doing well, why change the fish for no reason?
Liang Qu knew more inside information than others. The Octopus King enjoyed the blessing of having many wives, which always made him feel that things were not that simple. He even imagined in his mind the harem drama in which the pink octopus sister took advantage of her favor to forcibly occupy the business route of the blue octopus sister.
Before the disappearance of the Dragon King, the Jianghuai Lake was not taken seriously and was like waste, so it was the turn of the Sea Lord. Now, with the addition of the Dashun court, the demand for marine products on the entire land and the trade system has increased many times.
Especially in the middle of this year, Wei Lin fulfilled his promise of twenty times the volume of goods, which probably shocked the sea clan, not to mention that Liang Qu also helped to get General Yuan's plantation.
The originally insignificant scraps turned into fat meat, and my sister took it away with one piece?
Liang Qu was worried.
Strictly speaking, he and Umibozu had only met a few times, but he really felt close to them.
Others didn't have a close relationship with the company and thought it didn't matter if they changed the fish to do business, as long as the goods were in place. But he felt bad about it, especially when he thought about the possible reasons behind it.
The most important thing is, it’s not the same fish, so how do we calculate the “kickbacks”?
If there is more, can I keep giving it? Will the amount I give be less?
Haifangzhu gives back to others out of gratitude, but Haiyun is not the beneficiary...
Think about it.
"Master Haiyun, I wonder where Master Haifang is now?"
The tide hits the shore.
Liang Qu stood in front of the giant pink octopus. Although the octopus had a similar body shape, the one in front of him felt strange and no longer had the familiar cool feeling against his face.
Haiyun waved her pink tentacles, puzzled by Liang Qu's sudden appearance. She looked him up and down, and her eyes lit up.
"You are the Xiaoshui my sister mentioned, right?"
Haiyun's voice is very different from Haifangzhu's, and has a youthful and beautiful girlish feeling.
But Liang Qu was puzzled by what he said.
"How did you recognize it?"
"My sister said that Xiaoshui is the most impressive and the cutest one!"
Cool and cute?
Without waiting to think, the pink tentacles rolled up the Liangqu Canal, and then everything returned to the familiar rhythm.
"Why is Lord Liang so popular among the water tribe?"
The officials found this strange.
"Who knows, maybe the water tribe looks at us the same way they look at cats and dogs? Lord Liang happens to look like a ginger cat?"
"Strange, really strange."
"Everyone has his own opportunities. Good looks can be a way out."
Be intimate for a while.
Haiyun put Liang Qu down and handed over a big blood lion with the same enthusiasm.
"Xiao Shui, this is for you. Sister Hai is tired and is resting at home, so it's my turn at the end of the year. Before I left, Sister specifically asked me to pass it on to you. I haven't exchanged it with other water beasts along the way."
Liang Qu wiped the water stains off his face, holding the blood lion in his hand and fell into silence.
Does your thinking seem to be off track?
Or is it just a giant pink octopus in disguise?
After all, it is normal to be able to confuse the Octopus King, make him believe in slander, and pretend to be harmless...
After giving the treasure fish, Haiyun waved her tentacles and threw herself into the transaction again with the same enthusiasm as Haifangzhu.
pond.
The shrunken fat catfish flapped its fins and swam happily.
The more than one hundred porpoises in Yuantou’s home swam freely like giant fish, and at first glance they looked like a pond of gray koi.
Liang Qu sat on the [Rattan Soldier], silently thinking about whether there were any other hidden secrets.
Awei sucked the fish blood dry.
Taotaokai skillfully cut open the fish belly and reached in with his claws to dig out the internal organs.
half an hour.
A claw covered in fish blood was handed to Liang Qu.
"Ok?"
Looking closely, Liang Qu found a small note in his claws.
"Where did it come from?"
Otter pointed at the blood lion. It was taking out the internal organs to feed Round Head and Fist, but unexpectedly it took out a bloody note from it.
Liang Qu was stunned.
Books hidden in a fish's belly?
Did Umibozu send him a message?
Liang Qu quickly cleaned the blood stains off the note and unfolded it to take a look.
"Haiyuan Palace, the Octopus King wants to eat me."
"???"
Liang Qu was shocked and looked at it again and again to make sure that he was not seeing things. He had seen Haifangzhu's map, and the handwriting was exactly the same as on the note!
What do you mean?
Isn't it a harem fight for favor?
How come an octopus is killed?
Whose group did the pink octopus lady who gave the treasure fish belong to? Liang Qu's eyes flickered. He didn't quite believe that Hai Fangzhu really gave the fish. There was a note hidden inside, and Hai Yun, who handled it, would not know about it.
Could it be a trap?
Maybe there has never been any dispute in the harem, and Hai Fangzhu had already discussed it with Jiaolong and deliberately lied to him since the middle of the year. Or maybe Hai Yun and Jiaolong had discussed it, and she teamed up with the Eight Claws King to imprison Hai Fangzhu and imitate the handwriting to perform a good show, just to trick him out of Jianghuai and leave without any evidence.
You must be on guard against fish.
After experiencing the incident with the Ghost Mother Sect Master, Liang Qu knew that there was only one life and everything was possible...
"time to eat!"
"coming!"
The whole family enjoyed the meal with relish.
When it was over, Liang Qu put down his chopsticks and said, "Uncle, I want to take a leave."
"Another leave?" Su Guishan was stunned. "How many days off do you have in a year?"
There was a pause.
Su Guishan narrowed his eyes: "Umibozu?"
Long Eying cast a glance over.
Liang Qu handed over the note and told the truth.
Su Guishan glanced at the content of the note and put it aside: "You want to save Kaifangzhu? He is the demon king! Where do you get the courage?"
"How is that possible!" Liang Qu shook his head in denial, "How many lives do I have? How dare I touch the tiger whiskers of the demon king? But if I don't check the situation, I will feel guilty."
You definitely can’t go in person.
Liang Qu planned to first [force] catch a few fish, swim over to explore the way, and listen to Su Guishan's opinion at the same time.
"Oh, you really have a guilty conscience, or are you worried that you won't get kickbacks in the future?"
"Ahem...all of them?"
Su Guishan sneered. He put down his chopsticks and thought for a while: "Do you have a way to find out the situation without going there in person?"
"Have!"
"Go find Mr. Lan to tell you your fortune. If it's a minor ominous sign, I can't tell you the fortune. And you need General Xu to agree first."
"Got it."
Lan Jicai and Xu Wenzhu came to Pingyang together.
Xu Wenzhu stayed until now because Xu Yuelong was going to be promoted, and Lan Jicai naturally did not leave either.
"Don't be too happy. Your request for leave will be recorded and one month's salary will be deducted from you."
Liang Qu shrugged: "There's nothing left to deduct. I'll give it all to Wei Lin."
"After Wei Lin finishes dunking, it's my turn."
The corner of Liang Qu's mouth twitched.
"to make……"
……
"flat."
Lan Jicai took out the black tortoise shell sent by Liang Qu and verified it with his own divination.
"Neither auspicious nor ominous, there won't be any accidents on your trip, but..."
"But what?"
"What you do after you go there may have a huge impact."
"how do I say this?"
Lan Jicai didn't answer and turned to look at Xu Wenzhu.
Xu Wenzhu stared at the handwriting on the note, then glanced at Long Eying and Liang Qu, and suddenly asked: "Have you ever heard of a strange story?"
"what?"
"An octopus can only marry once in its lifetime."
"?"
Lan Jicai scratched his head: "What's the reason?"
"I heard it from others, I haven't verified it, but they say that in the ocean, female octopuses are much bigger than male octopuses. After the job is done, the male octopuses lose their strength and are eaten by the female octopuses. Many male octopuses will break their legs to survive, but even so, their chances of survival are still very small."
"Disconnect what?" Lan Jicai asked.
"What did you say?"
Lan Jicai's face tightened and he subconsciously closed his legs.
"General Xu means..."
"This is just a groundless guess. I have never come into contact with sea beasts before. I don't know if there will be any changes when the octopus becomes a demon king. But if there is a connection... Ah Shui, maybe there is an opportunity hidden in it."
"Please give me some advice, Uncle Xu."
"It's not really advice, but if the Octopus Clan really has some extraordinary abilities, you can try to see if you can let Haifangzhu replace the Octopus King with the support of our dynasty!"
