Leng Jueming died, Bei Huang was taken away by Chu Jin after his cultivation was banned, and Master Shou Yi and Taoist Master Ming Zhang both flew away after their affair.

Only Fan Boyu stayed and went back to Huangfuzhuang with everyone to sit down before leaving with Du Yueyao and Wang Xiaowan.

Lu Zheng stayed with Liu Qingyan for one night and stayed with the old lady for another day.

"Another three hundred pieces of light of luck have entered the account."

Leng Jueming, who is dead, contributed the most, and Bei Huang, who is not dead, contributed slightly less. However, according to Chu Jin, with Bei Huang in hand, the Zhenyi Department might launch a hunt for the monsters in Duyu Mountain.

Du Yushan's strength is average, far worse than that of Yuansheng Sect. The only one who is really powerful is Black Wolf King Leng Li, and the others are not a big problem.

In fact, Da Jingchao had no intention of paying attention to Duyushan. After all, Duyushan did not necessarily have a good reputation within Mengtian. If they were allowed to continue killing and cannibalizing, there might be internal strife.

It's just that Duyushan sent his men into the Central Plains to cause chaos, and also robbed Dajing many times. Now that Beihuang has provided information, the Zhenyi Division doesn't mind killing more big monsters, whether it's to refine magic weapons or kill them for food. The meat is also quite good.



"Jade seal, improve!"

"Buzz!"

Early on the third day, Lu Zheng and Liu Qingyan said goodbye and flew back.

There is a Wan Yuan River between Yizhou and Yaozhou. Although it is not as big as Lushui and other large rivers, it still supports countless people along the river in the two states.

Well, of course, he also fed a lot of monsters. Last time, Lu Zheng got rid of an evil dragon on Lanshui River, a tributary of Wanyuan River.

When the two of them flew to the Wanyuan River, Liu Qingyan felt something in her heart, and thought of the scene when the two of them were boating in the small town last year.

"Lu Lang, I want to take the boat." Liu Qingyan smiled and took Lu Zheng's arm.

It was rare for Liu Qingyan to make a request, so Lu Zheng certainly had no objection. It just so happened that this place was in the south, upstream of the Wanyuan River, close to Tonglin County.

Lu Zheng looked down and happened to see a town below near the bank of the Wan Yuan River.

After the clouds descended and fell into the town, the two found a remote location to show off their figures, and walked to the dock while strolling.

"This fisherman's water town is indeed quite different from the county town." Liu Qingyan said.

Hanging salted fish in every household is a bit excessive, but children play with crab and turtle shells, vendors along the street sell fresh fish and shrimps, fishermen come and go wearing raincoats, and restaurant merchants from surrounding counties come to purchase.

This town is the center of a dozen small fishing villages around it. Fishermen almost always come to this town to sell fish, except for keeping it for their own use.

Therefore, the core of the town is no less prosperous than an ordinary county town.

"Let's see if there are any fresh fish. If there are turtles, buy a few and make a pot of turtle soup." Lu Zheng followed the words and said.

Liu Qingyan raised her lips slightly, nodded and continued, "When we go back, we will go to Renxintang first, get some wolfberry, cinnamon, deer antlers and fairy spleen, and stew them with the turtle for half a day."

Lu Zheng: ?_??

Liu Qingyan chuckled and glanced at Lu Zheng, her face was enchanting and charming.

After glaring at Liu Qingyan, Lu Zheng said seriously, "Okay! That's it. If you come to my room at night, you don't have to call Shen Ying."

Liu Qingyan was stunned and her beauty turned pale, "Don't you call me Sister Shen?"

Then how can I bear it? Especially now that he is in love with his tail!

Liu Qingyan immediately succumbed, and the aura of teasing Lu Zheng disappeared instantly, "Well, Qingyan has to go to the clinic tomorrow."

"It doesn't matter! I'll make a medical appointment on your behalf!"

"Ah!?" Liu Qingyan opened her mouth slightly and was about to think of other excuses when she was interrupted by a loud voice next to her.

"I'm selling fish! I'm selling fish!"

"The new fish caught today are all alive and plump!"

"I also caught a koi today. I bought it to stew in soup and ate it with auspicious stars. I raised it to watch and everything goes well!"

The two of them had arrived at the pier at the edge of the town. There were fishing boats moored along the coast. When they opened the fish warehouse, there were fish of various colors swimming around.

Fishermen were hawking on the boats, and merchants and people from all over the country were walking on the docks, and sometimes they even pointed out and picked out the good ones in person.

If the common people want to eat fresh food, they carry a bucket themselves, while the merchants have a square wooden basin converted from a carriage, with a radius of five or six feet, which is enough to bring the fish back alive to the county seat or even the state capital.

Lu Zheng and Liu Qingyan walked all the way to the dock, mingling among the merchants, talking and looking at the fish.

The man who just shouted was a tall and round man. He had just found an open space on the shore and parked the boat. Before he could even open the fish bin on the boat, he had already shouted to open it.

Interrupted by him, Liu Qingyan turned her eyes and pulled Lu Zheng to take two steps to the fishing boat. "Boatman, let me pick two fresh river fish."

Although Liu Qingyan was naked, her face was stunning. When she asked her this question, the big man's face couldn't help but blush, and he said hurriedly, "It's all fresh! It's all fresh!"

He stepped aside and opened the fish bin, revealing dozens of fish in the fish bin.

"Look, girl, she's fat and big, jumping around and very energetic!"

The man pointed at the fish warehouse and said, "They are all big ten-thousand-yuan river carp, as well as crucian carp and silver carp. By the way, we also caught a net of crabs and soft-shell turtles."

Two other men came out from the cabin carrying a large basin, which contained dozens of large crabs and five or six large turtles.

"All the little ones have been released, leaving only the big ones!"

"Boatman, weigh two turtles for me!" Lu Zheng said immediately, "Here are three more fish."

"Okay!" The big man reached out and fished out two soft-shelled turtles, tied them firmly with straw ropes, then fished out three carps, passed the straw ropes through the gills, and stringed them together one by one.

"Chenghui, one hundred and twenty dollars." The big man handed the turtle and carp to Lu Zheng.

After paying the money and catching the fish, Lu Zheng was about to leave when Liu Qingyan said "Hey" and stopped again.

"What's wrong?" Lu Zheng turned around.

"What a beautiful koi."

The person who answered was not Liu Qingyan, but a tall and handsome scholar in a blue robe.

Lu Zheng and the scholar looked at each other, and the scholar raised his hands and said, "Li Yong, I have met this senior."

Lu Zheng arched his hands and said, "Lu Zheng."

After the two said hello, the big man pointed at the three-color koi carp that just swam out from the depths of the fish warehouse, "It's beautiful!"

The koi is not big, only one and a half palms long. It is neither fat nor thin, and has a well-proportioned body. It looks smaller than other fish, but wherever it goes, other fish avoid it and keep a distance from it.

"Beautiful." Li Yong nodded, "How much does this fish cost?"

The big man turned his eyes and said, "This koi is a mascot. It's three times the price. No concessions will be made."

"Okay, I want it."

It was not Li Yong who returned to this big man, but Liu Qingyan.
