The breeze blows and the water waves gradually rise.
The Awei on the wrist trembled a few times, the centipedes trembled, and he climbed into the pool and swam freely, while the small fishes around him fled in haste.
Liang Qu communicated with the four beasts in his mind again.
Within a quarter of an hour, a little finless porpoise swam out of the well mouth first. It looked around with its eyes and called out to Liang Qu.
Then a big head pushed the little finless porpoise and flew out, followed by the fat catfish sticking its head out.
Just as it was about to come out, a huge force came from its tail, and it was caught off guard and dragged back into the well.
While Yuan Tou and Fat Catfish were arguing, Fist and Can't Move came out first, Fist still holding a treasure fish in his hand.
Liang Qu was very pleased.
With this passage, treasure fish can be delivered directly to his home in the future, without Liang Qu having to go to the river to get them.
It is also more convenient to feed king sturgeon meat. At meal time, just let the four beasts follow the undercurrent to eat by themselves.
He couldn't use his claws to grab the edge of the pool, and crawled out with his belly rubbed against the bluestone bricks, bringing out a large splash of water. Two small fish were brought out and jumped on the ground.
It found a good place in the huge yard, lying on its belly with its limbs spread out to bask in the warm spring sun.
The fist followed and presented the treasure fish to Liang Qu. It was a tiger-headed spot weighing more than five kilograms.
"Well done."
Liang Qu took it smoothly, praised it and put it in the water tank.
It’s hard to go empty-handed when we go to have wine with Li Libo and Chen Jiechang tonight.
The old monk came to the courtyard after breakfast and didn't show much expression when he saw the animals being active.
He just came to the edge of the pool, picked up the two small fish on the ground, and put them back into the water.
After traveling all over the country for so many years, the old monk has seen countless masters of animal training, and he has personally experienced the power of hundreds of thousands of Gu insects in the mountains.
The so-called difficulty in raising animals was for the imperial court.
What the court wants is not a tame individual, but a species that can produce stably, which requires patient selection and breeding from generation to generation.
Just like the finless porpoise, no matter who it is, they can control it with just one token without having to develop feelings.
If you just want to tame an individual, stay by your side since birth to cultivate feelings, and rely on absolute force to overwhelm you, there are many ways.
In some great families, there are monsters that are almost at the level of elephants.
Demonic beasts of the same realm are already physically strong, and with the addition of learning human techniques, no one dares to provoke them easily.
Now it's just a few water beasts, no surprise.
I couldn't move when I saw the old monk in the yard. I looked at Liang Qu again without any orders, closed my eyes and continued to bask in the sun.
He followed Liang Qu closely with his fists moving forward.
The fat catfish got rid of its round head, stuck its head out of the well mouth, and sprayed saliva to say hello.
"You're such a weirdo."
The old monk admitted that he had made a mistake. This monster's strength and wisdom did not match well, but it was rare.
Liang Qu laughed: "I just want you to know that I have raised a few water beasts. If they come to the courtyard in the future, please don't kill them as monsters."
The appearance of the five beasts was considered an attempt by Liang Qu.
Since controlling water beasts is not special, we can try to make them appear more.
"good."
evening.
As agreed, Liang Qu took Tiger Head Spot to Li Libo's house for a drink.
Looking around the streets, the entire Yixing Town has really changed, a bit like Pingyang Town in the past.
At a glance, he saw that it was no longer the small town full of acquaintances. There were many people he didn't know.
The faint smell of burning firecrackers can still be smelled in the air. Many new shops have opened on both sides of the road, including new rice shops, cloth shops and restaurants.
Liang Qu even saw two martial arts schools opened in Yixing Town. There were only seven or eight apprentices in and out, and the scale was small.
This should be the reason why many people haven't completely settled down yet.
With food prices rising so high, those who have some money at home should keep it tight to prevent accidents and not spend it easily.
Learning martial arts is no different from gambling. Without follow-up support, it is likely to be in vain.
In a few months, when a crop of rice is harvested and food prices fall, the number of apprentices will at least double.
I wonder if I can continue to be the chief priest of the River God Festival on June 6th.
Liang Qu touched his chin, very concerned about this matter.
He had tried secretly a long time ago, finding a place to kill a chicken to worship, but he didn't even have a hair on it, so he still had to rely on a serious river god sacrifice.
Another river god festival.
Under the premise that the number of people, the quality of the sacrifices, and the identity of the officiant are all improved, he can ensure that the favorability will increase at least ten times and lose one zero.
But it’s difficult. Today’s Yixing Town is no longer the Yixing City that a few village elders could talk about.
There are not many people buying into Liangqu’s account, so it’s not certain whether the River God Festival can be held.
No wonder everyone wants to be powerful and have the right to speak. It feels really comfortable to speak out locally.
"Hey, Ah Shui is here!"
Chen Jiechang stood at the door greeting guests, and Li Libo patted him on the shoulder and pointed to the street.
Chen Jiechang took a look at it, said a few words to let people in, and hurried forward to greet Li Libo.
Liang Qu looked around: "I'm not late, am I?"
Li Libo patted his thigh: "How can it be too late? Brother Shui, you are the real owner. You can only open this table after you come. How can it be too late?"
Liang Qu laughed and picked up the tiger head spot in his hand.
"Look, I brought you good things! Congratulations to you two for becoming real warriors! I also wish you good luck in martial arts in the future!"
"Hiss, tiger head spots? This must weigh five kilograms, right? I told you before that you can just come with empty hands. How can we have the nerve to take it with you like this?"
"It didn't cost any money. I caught it this morning. To be honest, I ate tiger-headed spots every two days and I'm tired of them."
"Why haven't you noticed that Brother Shui still has a problem with bragging before?"
"Blow fart, take it! It hurts to hold it."
Liang Qu threw the lively tiger-headed spots in his hands to the two of them, and strode into the yard. He happened to see Xiang Changsong and Hu Qi, and sat over them: "Brother Hu, Senior Brother Xiang? You are here too!"
"It happened to be fine, so the two of them came here without any hesitation." Xiang Changsong ate fried peanuts.
Hu Qi poured a cup of tea for Liang Qu: "Junior brother Liang is about to break the blood barrier, right?"
Liang Qu nodded: "Within the last ten days."
"The relationship is good and you can have a meal. Don't cry poor when the time comes."
"Come here." Liang Qu patted his pocket, "Junior brother, my pockets are bulging!"
"How are you doing at Hebo? Are there any problems?"
"It's good. Brother Xu and Wei Ti will be managed separately. No one from Brother Xu will bully me. It's quite easy to get some credit every day in exchange for something."
"This is your first time taking office. Although Brother Xu is helping you, you still have to be careful in what you say and do. You are all young masters from the imperial capital, and many of them have bad tempers."
"Don't worry, Brother Hu. I'm not a troublemaker. Just don't mess with me."
"Um."
midnight.
After dinner, Liang Qu loosened his belt and went to patrol the river with his fubo gun. He also carried a few dead fish heads to the boat to register his merits. As he was about to leave, he was stopped by Director Li.
"Don't leave yet, I have a mission today."
Liang Qu paused: "Mission? What mission?"
Li Shoufu opened the drawer and took out an album from the cabinet.
"This morning, there was a report from the neighboring county that there was a water monster causing trouble. All of us powerful people have gone to get the Ghost Mother Cult. There aren't many Hebei river leaders, so we might have to go to the trouble of making a trip. I don't know if it's inconvenient or not."
Although the Hebo Office was built in Pingyang County, it was in charge of the entire Huaiyin Prefecture.
Water monsters in other counties are under the jurisdiction of Hebo.
Liang Qu took the album, and according to the description, it was an ordinary spirit. It would only take three days to come and go.
"Sure, I'll go then."
