Chapter 110: Playing Advanced Dungeons on Behalf of Others
The red horse was running with the wind, its mane and tail spread out as it ran, just like a wild horse running on the wilderness.
The young man on horseback had his clothes fluttering.
Fast, very fast.
The fiery red horse glided past through the gaps in the crowd, like a burning flame!
This horse is so smart, so smart that it seems like it is equipped with the most advanced automatic obstacle avoidance system.
Just give the direction and you can take people to any place.
Master Yang said that this horse could have a very explosive temperament, but Liang Qu did not feel that way. From riding to galloping, he was as docile as a domestic dog.
Liang Qu crouched low, the wind whistling in his ears. The scene beside him seemed to stretch infinitely, and the flames rose and fell as if following his breathing.
It would take an ordinary person less than an hour to walk sixteen miles.
Liang Qu didn't know how long it took him, but when he arrived at Yixing Town, the time he spent along the way was definitely not enough to drink a cup of tea.
The Dragon Blood Horse is quite heavy, with a Fu Bo hanging next to the saddle, with a total weight of at least 300 kilograms, which shows its superior performance.
After working hard for half a year, he drives a supercar and owns a 1,000-square-meter courtyard in the planned new district. He is assigned to an important unit as an eighth-rank official, and his backer is the biggest local tyrant. He has a bright future.
There wasn't much money in the bag. Most of the 150 taels given by the master's wife had been spent. The remaining large sum was the 100 taels given by the emperor. But he had everything he needed.
Gee tut.
Liang Qu rode on the dragon-blood horse, his back straighter.
Passersby who were carrying wood cast envious and awe-inspiring glances at them, and continued to move the pillars to build their new houses.
The horse's mane is shiny and smooth and feels great to the touch.
Liang Qu stroked the dragon blood horse's neck, feeling the beating of its blood vessels, and thought for a while: "You are tall and strong, and as red as a ball of fire. From now on, I will call you Chishan?"
Chishan snorted, raised his head and nudged Liangqu's hand.
"I wonder if Chishan can be controlled?"
Liang Qu pulled out the blue wolf, cut his finger, spread the blood evenly on his fingertips, separated the horsehair, and drew the water talisman.
A red light flashed, but the blood did not penetrate into the skin as quickly as usual. It took a long time before it slowly absorbed into the skin.
Chishan then snorted.
There is not much feeling in my mind.
Nothing changed, the mental link did not appear.
Failed.
Because it's not a water beast?
Liang Qu withdrew his fingers, opened half a bag of lotus root powder and swallowed it mixed with the clean water in the water bag. The wound gradually healed.
As my martial arts improved, the effect of lotus root was not as good as before, but minor wounds still healed quickly.
Liang Qu was not too disappointed when he failed to control Chishan. Chishan was not a water beast, and he had been mentally prepared for failure.
He can accept it without a mental connection. With Chishan's intelligence level, he can learn some simple instructions quickly.
When they arrived at the place, Liang Qu patted Chishan's neck and dismounted.
Chen Zhaoshan, who was notified early in the morning, walked out of the house and asked Liang Qu what happened.
When people heard that food had finally arrived, the news spread like wildfire, and the whole Yixing Town was in an uproar.
Food prices have been rising. If they are asked to donate food, they will become victims of the disaster.
I breathed a sigh of relief when the food arrived.
When the young and strong laborers heard that they were going to help move grain, they were more enthusiastic than each other. Every household pushed out carts and rushed to Pingyang County.
It is difficult to lift a hundred kilograms of stone, but carrying a hundred kilograms of food on your shoulders is as fast as the wind!
Empty carts set out from Yixing City, and when they returned, the carts loaded with grain left deep marks in the mud.
The setting sun spread out, and the earth was covered with a layer of deep red.
The women gathered in twos and threes, their shadows reflected on the earthen walls, looking forward to the arrival of the grain carts.
When they saw the carts loaded with grain, they rushed up to help transport the grain to the dock.
Chen Zhaoan and other village elders took the booklets and counted the heads.
Grain distribution is a big deal, especially with so many outsiders coming in recently, registration is a very troublesome thing.
But this is also a good opportunity to re-establish your authority.
In a city of thousands of people, age is a huge asset, but in a town of tens of thousands, this asset is not so popular, and it depends more on one's own strength.
Among the tens of thousands of outsiders who have flocked in, there are many powerful people from other places, wealthy businessmen, powerful people, and big families.
In the past, there were not many warriors in Yixing City, and they would panic when they encountered a mountain ghost.
But now, Liang Qu was riding through Yixing Town on horseback and felt the aura of several warriors with strong strength, at least above the second level.
Population is the basis of everything. Being a powerful person in a city and being a powerful person in a town are two different concepts.
Whether or not we can continue to occupy the original ecological chain depends on our own abilities.
The sturdy man in the lead wiped his sweat and said, "Mr. Chen, there are a total of thirty-six cars, all of which are here. I'm watching them, and no one dares to steal them."
"Thank you for your hard work. When the food is distributed later, each person can take an extra pound."
"It's not hard, it's not hard. Village elder, didn't you see that our town was the first to get the food? Other places, like Chaojiang County, oh, now it should be called Chaojiang Town, they all had to follow us! By the time they move back, it will probably be dark, and I'm afraid they won't have a full meal today."
"Then you all have to thank Ah Shui." Chen Zhao comforted him and laughed, "Otherwise, why do you think you were the first to move and transport grain?"
"Haha, I forgot about that. I have to thank Brother Shui! Did you all hear that?"
"Thank you, Brother Shui!"
"Mr. Liang is awesome!"
The young and middle-aged people at the pier responded with great momentum.
"Okay, I'll go back first. If Mr. Chen distributes the food earlier, everyone can have a better dinner."
"That's how it should be."
Liang Qu mounted his horse, and Chishan turned into a red light in the setting sun and disappeared into the horizon.
The population of Yixing Town has exceeded 10,000, and many new immigrants have taken note of Liangqu in their hearts, each with different thoughts.
Come in a hurry, go in a hurry.
When Liang Qu returned to Yang Mansion, the disciples were still distributing food.
Lu Gang, who was in charge of registering the grain quantity, was dragged to Liangqu to serve as a soldier. He would rather carry grain bags than hold a pen.
The county government team has not arrived yet, and the only one who can take charge of the situation is Yang Fu.
The second senior brother, Yu Dun, is the county lieutenant. Although the distribution of grain is not the county lieutenant's responsibility, there is a shortage of manpower, so no one can find fault with him for the time being.
Today's convoy is just the first one, and there will be two, three, four, and five more to come, delivering food continuously.
Xiang Changsong and Liang Qu sat together, painting continuously with their wolf-hair brushes.
While recording, Xiang Changsong revealed a good news - he was about to break through the fourth level and become a martial artist, within the next two days!
Liang Qu congratulated him and said, "Do you want to treat me to a meal? I heard that Senior Brother Hu had invited me to Langyunlou before."
"That must be Langyun Tower." Xiang Changsong waved his hand, and a few drops of ink were thrown out of the wolf hair brush. He was in a very happy mood. "By the way, I have a few ox-horn pomfret horns over there. Brother Xiang, do you want to use them?"
"Ah, that's not necessary. This thing just acts as a medicine. Senior Brother Hu only used a small half of it last time and gave me the rest. It's more than enough to make blood-clotting pills."
"I have two bigger ones, as big as wolf canine teeth. They should be more effective as medicine."
Xiang Changsong's eyes lit up: "Then I will be disrespectful to refuse."
"No problem, I'll get it for you later."
It was midnight when the food was distributed.
The master's wife went to bed early, and only the master and his fellow disciples were present to chat.
The maid brought the teapot and was about to pour tea. Liang Qu took the teapot and poured tea for his fellow brothers one by one, starting with the master.
Yang Dongxiong and several of his fellow disciples exchanged glances with a half-smile.
Xu Zishuai took a sip and said pointedly: "Xiaojiu, if you are being too attentive for no reason, you are either a traitor or a thief!"
"Brother Xu, you're joking. I'm the youngest, so I should do all this."
Yang Dongxiong drank it all in one gulp and put the cup back on the tray: "Okay, just tell me what you want to say."
Liang Qu stepped forward and filled the glass again: "Master, how much do you know about the river in Pingyang County?"
"Crossing the Dragon River? Why are you asking this? I don't know much, but I heard from the older generation that it was crossed by a dragon. What's wrong with that?"
"I have also been hearing this rumor and was very curious. Today, I walked upstream along the Guolong River and found a lake when I passed through a dense forest. It was not big, but not small either. It was half a mile wide."
"Half a mile? That's not small." Yang Dongxiong frowned, "Did you find anything in there?"
“To be honest, Master, there are a lot of sturgeons in the lake. They are everywhere. They eat meat, so they shouldn’t gather together.
The most peculiar thing is that there are three large sturgeons at the entrance of the lake, each one is about two feet long! They definitely have a weird aura, swaying like guard dogs!"
Yu Dun, Lu Gang and other senior brothers all sat up straight.
Monsters are like tigers, they all have their own territories, and there is only one possibility for them to gather together and live in harmony.
There is something more powerful pressing down on us.
A giant sturgeon monster, or maybe a sturgeon demon?
Several brothers licked their lips.
Sturgeon monsters are good stuff, especially the big tendon in its body. Eating it can increase your muscle and bone strength!
The sturgeon's tendons are even more amazing. Eating them when you are young can help improve your talent!
It’s a pity that the big monster in the water is really difficult to deal with. It will run away if you are not careful. The tendon of a sturgeon monster is so rare.
But after listening to my junior fellow apprentice's description, I realized that this terrain is also very good.
People are at a disadvantage when fighting fish underwater, but if the outlet of a lake is blocked and the water is not pumped out, won’t they be at the mercy of others?
After hearing this, Yang Dongxiong's appetite increased and he missed the delicious sturgeon meat.
Liang Qu struck while the iron was hot: "And Master, it's actually very strange that there are so many sturgeons in the lake. So many carnivorous fish must need a lot of food."
"you mean"
"The sturgeon looks like a dragon, so the fishermen call it the sturgeon dragon. I think if there really is a big monster or even a demon, it shouldn't be confined to a small lake. I suspect there is something else in it.
Cross the Dragon River, cross the Dragon River, I have heard this rumor countless times, so is there a possibility that there really is something left by the dragon in the river that makes the sturgeon king reluctant to leave?"
Ten birds in the forest are worse than one in the hand.
You don’t have to fight hard for advanced copies!
You can also find a substitute!
After Liang Qu said this, everyone present couldn't sit still and their imaginations ran wild.
What if there really are remnants of a dragon?
Not to mention dragon blood and dragon meat, dragon scales and dragon bones are all extraordinary treasures!
"Calm down, why are you in such a hurry? The lake is right there, how can you run away? To cultivate oneself, one must first cultivate one's character. Have you forgotten this?"
Yang Dongxiong's words awakened the dreamer.
Everyone adjusted their sitting positions and calmed down.
But I couldn't stop the amazement in my heart.
It is so terrifying to see a long dragon crossing the river.
Liang Qu felt that his fate as a dragon crossing the river was just a versatile excuse that would only make people think that it was really easy for him to get resources in the swamp.
"There is no rush for the dragon. After all, it is a water beast. If it is really a monster, I will have to spend some time to deal with it. I need to make long-term plans. But there is an important matter the day after tomorrow."
Yang Dongxiong pulled out a gold-stamped sticker from his sleeve and passed it to Yu Dun on his lower left hand for him to circulate.
"Someone sent us a visiting card this afternoon, saying that he was going to open a martial arts school in Pingyang County and wanted to come and spar with us."
"Isn't that just a challenge? Who are you? Aren't you afraid of being beaten to death by you, Master?" Xu Zishuai took the visiting card from Lu Gang's hand, glanced at it, and handed it to the fifth junior sister beside him.
To be honest, he was quite surprised, but it was not a surprise that someone wanted to come and challenge the martial arts school.
Pingyang Town suddenly became Pingyang County, and its population increased more than ten times. Martial arts schools need a lot of people to recruit disciples, so there must be a lot of capable people following, and it is inevitable that there will be challenges.
Martial arts were prevalent in Dashun, and martial arts competitions were the most popular topic.
Especially when opening a martial arts school, regardless of background or power, everyone is welcome, which is the default rule.
Why don't you kick anyone else? Why do you want to kick Yang's Martial Arts School?
I haven’t heard that there is anyone more powerful than my master in the nearby counties.
"Brother Xu, you didn't read it carefully. It's written on it. It's not a comparison between masters, but a comparison of the abilities of the apprentices."
The fifth sister read it more carefully and pointed out the content above, "The visiting card said that even if the master is powerful, the apprentice he taught may not be powerful. Since you are opening a martial arts school, you must compare the skills of the apprentices."
"Tsk." Xu Zishuai crossed his legs and slumped on the armchair, "Isn't he afraid that his apprentice will be beaten to death by me?"
Sixth Senior Brother Cao Rang took the visiting card and shook his head: "No, I think this person is coming for Xiao Jiu."
"I?"
Liang Qu took the invitation, looked at it carefully, and found that it was true.
The other party clearly proposed that each side select three disciples to compete.
Pick out the three with the largest, middle and smallest time periods for accepting disciples.
The eldest senior brother is not here, in other words, it’s the second senior brother, the fifth senior sister and him.
It's been less than five months since I started, and it's obvious that I'm considering him as a breakthrough?
Xu Zishuai also understood: "This guy knows his own strength and doesn't want to win at all. He is counting on winning one out of three games? I guess he has accepted a youngest disciple who is very talented!"
Master Yang is such a great man, so naturally the disciples he taught are not bad at all.
Winning one out of three games is better than winning all the other martial arts schools. In the eyes of others, it is already a success!
Beating a child and beating a general by half a move are two completely different concepts.
The challenger is a smart guy.
Unfortunately.
Xu Zishuai touched his chin.
When teaching Liang Qu how to use the spear, he could feel that his junior fellow apprentice's strength was stronger than that of a fourth-level warrior.
Afterwards, his master certified that he was born with a martial arts body and immense strength.
He has an extraordinary talent in martial arts. He can understand any move at a glance and master it as soon as he starts practicing. He can master all the fighting techniques in just over a month.
Not to mention that his fate is like a dragon crossing the river, extremely vigorous and fierce.
Is the other party sure that they have chosen the right person?
Even if Eighth Junior Brother comes, he has a slight chance of winning.
