Chapter 217 The fusion of water and fire
The Yangtze River Porpoise Manager walked in front of Liang Qu and Li Shoufu. The three of them stepped on the floating wooden platform built on the water, and the hemp rope joints creaked.
The smooth backs of the porpoises broke through the water, they rolled over in the lake and disappeared.
Liang Qu even saw a huge black shadow that was close to 30 meters in size and was looming underwater.
Its aura is much stronger than that of the red beast, approaching the level of a "demon".
Obviously, it is the "big leader" of the entire Pingyang County River and Lake Station, commanding hundreds of finless porpoises.
Xu Yuelong and Wei Lin each have one in their hands, and no one knows where the other one is.
The entire command system of the Yangtze River dolphins is divided into decapitations, centurions, and thousand-man captains.
Ordinary finless porpoises are led by the finless porpoise king, and the finless porpoise king is led by a more powerful spirit porpoise. It is simple to understand and easy to manage.
A few brave porpoises poked their heads out and roared at Liang Qu who was standing on the wooden frame.
I don’t know which companion will be taken away today.
The steward, carrying a wooden barrel filled with small fish, fed a few pickled mackerel to the approaching porpoise, and pointed forward.
"That's it. Injecting blood into it can attract the corresponding finless porpoise. Sir Liang, are you sure you want to choose 374? If the last digit is an even number, it means it's a female beast."
One hundred kung fu for a finless porpoise is not cheap.
The reason for this is that the Yangtze River dolphin is different from precious medicines and plants.
The precious plant medicine will be gone after it is taken. The Yangtze finless porpoise is a great helper underwater. Using small merits to exchange for the Yangtze finless porpoise is equivalent to using the money earned to buy a new loom. It seems that the money is less, but in fact, you will earn more in the future.
But finless porpoises can get hurt, and it is even more impossible for them to work tirelessly.
Just like when buying a loom, you must buy a good one; that is the value and you can earn back the money you invested faster.
I really can't understand why Liang Qu wanted to change to a female.
Reproduction?
Don't be ridiculous. Not to mention that the reproduction rate of Yangtze finless porpoises is low, even if they really get pregnant and don't miscarry, the gestation period will take more than a year.
In addition, it will take at least three to five years for the young finless porpoises to grow and form combat power.
If you have that much time, you might as well exchange it for adult finless porpoises and enjoy the “compound interest”.
"I am sure."
"Okay, Sir Liang, please come in."
It is a good idea to advise someone once, but it is not worth it to advise them repeatedly and offend them.
Liang Qu wrapped the token around his wrist and skillfully guided the blood and energy into the mini porpoise token marked with a number.
"Three, seven, four..."
A line of water flew in from a distance, raising a white water curtain and circling around the beam channel on the driftwood.
To be honest, Yuantou often took Jiang Xiaotun back to Hebo to see his wife secretly, but this was the first time Liangqu saw it.
In terms of body shape, female finless porpoises are more slender, not as "fat" as males, and are lighter in color. There are indeed gender differences.
He still remembered that before the round-headed one evolved, it was about six meters in size, but the one in front of him was only five meters.
Can it still be matched?
Liang Qu inexplicably associated the idea that the current size difference between Roundhead and his wife was almost twice as large.
No, Scarhead’s wife is also an ordinary finless porpoise, but it is also more than eight meters long. Perhaps this is the biological characteristic of the finless porpoise?
"Please accompany me, both of you."
Liang Qu received the finless porpoise and thanked Li Shoufu and the finless porpoise manager.
"Mr. Liang is too polite. It's my job."
"Let's go, Jane!"
Liang Qu gave Yuantou's wife a name in an instant, and after calling her a few times, he made Ah Zhen remember his name.
After rowing for several miles, Yuantou and Jiang Xiaotun, who had received the news early, were waiting in the distance. When they saw Azhen beside Liang Qu, the two of them, one big and one small, could not wait to rush over.
They have been separated for nearly three months and are now finally reunited. The whole family is very happy and has been playing and chasing each other around the barge.
Liang Qu sat on the edge of the boat and took out the two water source fruits. The water source fruit looked very similar to an apple, but the skin was dark blue and long.
This precious plant is worth twenty points of small merit. In addition to increasing qi and blood, it also has the effects of strengthening the spleen and stomach, nourishing the kidneys and blood. It is almost an enhanced version of cockscomb fruit. I don't know how effective it is.
Take a bite, and a light sweet taste fills your mouth. The texture is so-so, crunchy, and there is a thick scent of water.
Two swallows.
[Water Essence +242]
[Water Essence +239]
Not a lot.
Liang Qu frowned.
One can be said to have poor quality control, but the two are similar, which basically means that the effect is around this range.
Two small gongs can be exchanged for three cockscomb fruits, and the water essence obtained is about 25, which is equivalent to water essences for one small gong.
If we convert the water source fruit in front of us, the water essence of one small gong is only twelve points, which is half a point less than the cockscomb fruit?
No wonder cockscomb fruit is always a best-seller.
I guess it is an extremely cost-effective exchange item among the small items in Hebo Institute.
It is a bit like the main product in a store. It may not be better than other products, but it must be cost-effective and can be cultivated in large quantities to meet the huge demand gap among warriors.
But most people may not be able to tell the difference.
No one else has Ze Ding, and can quantify the effect of an underwater precious plant through the essence of water.
vs. 12, it's only a difference of 4 percent, and not many people can appreciate it.
"I need to save up my small merits again, and try to exchange all the treasure plants with less than 30 points of small merits to see if there are any with better value for money."
Liang Qu set a small goal, which was to let Yuantou take his wife back to the lotus root waters to settle down, and then he would go home for dinner.
The next day was also the last day of working in the boat of Hebo Office. Liang Qu boarded the boat again to exchange for small skills. He stayed at home to practice for the next few days and never went to Hebo Office.
There is no other reason, just move away from the rivers and lakes, and be the first to do so.
There are too many conflicts between Xu Yuelong and Wei Lin.
Not to mention mortal enemies, at least they were the kind who would look at each other sideways when they saw each other on the street, and could start a fight with just one sentence: "What are you looking at me?"
Previously, the two groups worked separately and did not interfere with each other. This time, moving to the shore was equivalent to removing the partition in the double-flavored hot pot, and the chili oil and clear soup were mixed together.
As a subordinate of Xu Yuelong's faction, Liang Qu must not stand out at this time of conflict.
Who knows if one of Wei Lin’s men might suddenly jump out and try to curry favor with their superior by killing him.
Liang Qu is just a martial artist who knows a little bit of water skills, and he absolutely cannot be the first to stand out.
It will stay in hiding for at least seven or eight days, and then reappear after the auction ends on June 18th.
The intensity of the conflict should be less by then.
It's not that Liang Qu didn't want to stand out because of the benefits and care he received from Xu Yuelong. It's just that if he stood out, he would be looked down upon by Xu Yuelong and others.
What’s the point of the subordinates winning by showing off?
Can you accomplish one more great deed, bring glory to your ancestors, and overshadow the other side?
No.
Only those lackeys who are desperately trying to squeeze into the circle like to use low-level tactics to curry favor, such as Bao Guowei who likes to smear egg soup on his hair.
Of course, sometimes it’s not that the lackey is too stupid, but that there is no other way.
Playing the role of a clown to make the nobles laugh is their only way to please the upper class and show their existence.
Liang Qu was just a little luckier than them.
