Chapter 61 Water Ganoderma As soon as Liang Qu walked out of the academy, he saw Li Libo waiting at the door. He looked around and saw no one else around. It was obvious that he was waiting for him. "How did you come?" Li Libo, who was squatting on the curb, looked up when he heard the voice, spat out the grass stem in his mouth, and complained: "Finally I see you, I asked Senior Brother Xiang, and Senior Brother Xiang said that you would finish school at the end of the afternoon, so I came to wait for you a quarter of an hour earlier, but I waited for a long time and didn't see you. I went to ask the old man at the door, and he said you hadn't come out yet. I was embarrassed to go in and disturb you, so I waited for more than an hour. Did you hook up with some rich girl in there?" "I thought so. My class is full of kids." "So what are you doing in there?" "I have something to do, it's a little late, have you eaten yet? If not, I'll treat you, it's a good opportunity for us to eat together." "That's a good feeling." Li Libo was smiling happily, and the two of them went to the foot shop to order food and eat.
"Come to think of it, I feel like you're a little different." "What's the difference?" "Not so dark anymore, and seems to be taller." "I'm still growing up, and I haven't been out fishing much these days. Tell me what you want from me." "Hey, I almost forgot." Li Libo took out a stack of papers from his pocket and slapped them on the table. "Today, Chen Lilao sent someone to the martial arts hall to find you. He said that there will be a river god sacrifice tomorrow at noon. You are the main priest and you have to read the sacrificial text in public. He asked you to read it several times in advance to get it right. There is also a process, which is written on the paper, meaning that you should be familiar with it. As a result, he couldn't find you, so he had to send someone to the martial arts hall. I happened to know that you were in the academy, so the person asked me to pass the sacrificial text to you. " "Okay, I've got it. I have something else to trouble you with. Go to the martial arts gym and help me move the big wooden box from my room." "A wooden box? Okay, I'll go back and take a look and bring it back to you." Liang Qu took the paper, folded it and put it in his arms. He did not forget that Chen Zhaoan had said before that he would be the chief priest of the River God Festival, a great opportunity to show himself. The sacrificial text will not be in plain language. Various uncommon words will be combined to form words that are not spoken in normal days. It is very difficult to pronounce and needs to be read several times in advance. At the time, one must dress appropriately. He had always been reluctant to wear the cloak, robe, and stepping boots given to him by his senior brothers, and he didn't dare to leave them at home for fear that they would be stolen. Now they are finally useful. After dinner, Li Libo found a wooden box, gave it to Liang Qu, and hurried back to practice martial arts. The opportunity was hard to come by, so he and Chen Jiechang practiced like crazy every day and never returned to Yixing City. If they didn’t have to go back for the River God Festival tomorrow, they probably wouldn’t appear in Yixing City within three months. This level of hard work is three times stronger than Liang Qu's. After all, he not only has to go out on the boat and study, and do many things at once, but sometimes he also has to sleep in and play with the three beasts. I am so ashamed. I will never be so lazy again. Carrying the wooden box to Pingyang Wharf to paddle the boat, Liang Qu came to Shangrao Wharf to hit the water and waves, and a giant beast gradually emerged from the water. The dark and slender body was half hidden in the darkness, and its densely packed scales were glowing with a faint light. They were broken apart by the arched water flow, flowing and washing along the gaps between the scales, turning into small streams and merging into the rivers.
It is unable to move and its body length has now reached three and a half meters. Even if it stops growing, it is still enough to be called a giant crocodile. After stuffing the sacrificial text and clothes into the cabin, Liang Qu jumped into the water wearing only a pair of underpants, and stood by to escort him, unable to move, and approached the direction of the fat catfish. On the way, it couldn't move and swayed from side to side to ask Liang Qu for credit, because this time it was no longer the fat catfish that discovered the treasure, but it was it that couldn't move! Budingdong accidentally discovered a special terrain when digging a hole underwater. It was extremely hidden. After entering, he found a different world. If it weren't for chance, ordinary people would never find it. Liang Qu patted Budingdong's head to show encouragement. It's a pity that he doesn't have any good things on hand now, and there is no material reward. Even so, he was extremely happy to be hit on the head and unable to move. He twitched the water with his tail and drew out a large string of bubbles. When they arrived at the place, Liang Qu looked up, extremely shocked. There is such a huge rock under the water. Looking around, it is nearly twenty meters high, equivalent to the size of a small residential building. Under the rock, there was a fist as big as a head patrolling everywhere. After seeing Liang Qu, he paddled over and grabbed his shoulder. The normal muddy ground nearby suddenly bulged up, and a fat catfish four meters long shook off the mud and sand and swam over. Surrounded by two giant beasts and one small beast, Liang Qu actually felt a slight sense of pleasure, as if he were really the water god in the vast waves, commanding all forces. With just a wave of his hand, thousands of sailors cleared the way. But as soon as he thought of Brother Toad, Liang Qu's little thoughts disappeared. I will be reading the eulogy for Brother Toad tomorrow, so please be patient for now and eat dry pot spicy frog in the morning and evening. Liangqu fell to the bottom of the water due to gravity. There is a neutral buoyancy point for people in water. Usually at a depth of five meters, the body will naturally float upwards and return to the surface without doing anything. However, at a certain depth, the chest cavity is squeezed, the overall volume will shrink, and the person will no longer float up and will begin to sink freely. This point without any weight is usually thirty meters. At this time, the water depth was more than 30 meters, and Liang Qu could fall to the bottom of the water effortlessly. Under the guidance of Jidong, Liangqu found the hole it had dug under the rock. He crawled into the hole and found that a large crack three meters wide had appeared at the bottom of the rock, and faint light was shining through. Liang Qu entered the crack and moved towards the light source. After swimming four or five meters, the road made a 90-degree turn and went straight up like a cliff. On the straight road that is almost like a "cliff", there is a vine as thick as a person, which looks like the pea vine that leads to the land of giants in the fairy tale Jack and the Pea. It is the light source, emitting a faint glow in the darkness, very bright and extremely strange. Liang Qu leaned over to take a bite, but it was so hard that he couldn't bite it at all. He could only climb up along the vine. After only ten meters, he suddenly jumped out of the water, with wet hair, and looked blankly at the surroundings that had suddenly become clear. The innermost part of the stone is not water, but air! Looking around, I saw an inverted semicircular platform, the top of which reflected the faint blue rippling water. The entire rock is like a huge cover, locking all the air in the enclosed space inside. Liang Qu did not hold his breath and came to check before he could move, which was enough to prove that there was no problem with the air inside. However, as a crocodile, it has a limited vocabulary and cannot describe the situation in the cave in more detail. It only mentioned stones, caves, and plants growing in the stones that glow. In fact, the space inside the stone is similar to an inverted eighth note. The big belly of the note is the space he sees, and the long rod of the L is the passage.
Liang Qu grabbed the vines and climbed into the platform inside the stone. He stood on the platform. The space inside was high enough for him to stand upright. With a glance, he saw a fat plant in the corner that was as big as a human head. It looks very much like a mushroom, with a short, thick, white, and plump stem, but the top resembles a Ganoderma lucidum cap, deeply rooted in the cracks of the rocks. Water Ganoderma! Liang Qu has been reading these days and is no longer the ignorant newbie he used to be. He recognized at a glance that this is the water's precious plant, the Ganoderma lucidum! He was about to step forward when unexpectedly, a piece of stone that had completely blended in with the surroundings suddenly fell off the dark rock wall and shot out! (End of this chapter)
