The red horse was carrying a gust of wind, and its mane and tail spread out when it ran, just like a wild horse running on the wilderness. The young man on the horse's back had his clothes flying. Fast, very fast. The fiery red horse passed through the gap of the crowd, like a burning flame! This horse was too smart, so smart that it seemed to be equipped with the top automatic obstacle avoidance system. Point out the direction and it can take people to any place. Master Yang said that this horse would have a very explosive temperament, but Liang Qu didn't feel it. From riding to galloping, it was as docile as a domestic dog. Liang Qu crouched down, the sound of the wind whistled in his ears, the scenery beside him seemed to be infinitely stretched, and the flames rose and fell, as if following his breathing. Sixteen miles, it would take an ordinary person less than an hour to walk. 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, and there is 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 drove a supercar, owned a 1,000-square-meter courtyard in the planned new district, served as an official of the eighth rank in an important unit, and had the biggest local tyrant as his backer, so he had a promising future. There was not much money in the bag, most of the 150 taels given by the master's wife were spent, and the remaining 100 taels were given by the emperor, but he had everything he should have. Tsk tsk tsk. Liang Qu rode on the dragon blood horse, and his back was straighter. Passersby who came to carry wood cast envious and awe-inspiring eyes, and continued to move the pillars to build his new house. The horse's mane was shiny and smooth, and it felt great to 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 red like a ball of fire. From now on, I will call you Chishan?" Chishan snorted, raised his head and nudged Liang Qu's palm. "I wonder if Chishan can be controlled?" Liang Qu pulled out the blue wolf, cut his finger, spread the blood evenly on the fingertips, separated the horse hair, and drew the water talisman. A red light flashed, and the blood did not penetrate into the skin as quickly as usual. It took a long time to slowly blend in. Chishan continued to snort. There was not much feeling in his mind. Nothing changed, and the spiritual connection did not appear. Failed. Because it is not a water beast? Liang Qu retracted his finger, opened half a bag of lotus root powder and swallowed it mixed with the clear water in the water bag, and the wound gradually healed. With the improvement of martial arts, the effect of lotus root is not as good as before, but small wounds still recover quickly.
Liang Qu was not too disappointed when he failed to control Chishan. Chishan was not a water beast, and he had been prepared for failure. He could accept it even without a spiritual connection. With Chishan's intelligence, he could learn some simple commands quickly. When they arrived, Liang Qu patted Chishan's neck and got off his horse. Chen Zhaoshan, who had been notified early in the morning, walked out of the house and asked Liang Qu what happened. Hearing that food was finally delivered, the news spread like wildfire, and the whole Yixing Town was boiling. The price of food has been rising. If they were asked to donate food again, they would become victims of the disaster. It was a great relief when the food was delivered. When the young and strong laborers heard that they were going to help move the food, they were more active than each other. Every household pushed a cart out and rushed to Pingyang County. It was hard to move a hundred kilograms of stone, but carrying a hundred kilograms of food on the shoulders was like flying! Empty carts set out from Yixing City, and when they came back, carts full of grain pressed deep marks on the mud. The setting sun spread down, and the earth flowed with a layer of deep red. Women gathered in groups of three or two, their shadows reflected on the earth wall, looking forward to the arrival of the grain cart. Seeing the carts full of grain, they rushed up one by one to help transport it to the wharf. Chen Zhaoan and other village elders took the book and counted the heads. Dividing grain is a big deal, especially with so many outsiders pouring in recently, registration is a very troublesome thing. But this is also a good opportunity to re-establish authority. In a city with thousands of people, age is a great asset, but in a town with tens of thousands of people, this asset is not so popular, and it depends more on one's own strength. Among the tens of thousands of outsiders pouring in, there are many fierce dragons from across the river, wealthy businessmen from other places, powerful people, and big families. In the past, there were not many warriors in Yixing City, and they would panic when they met a mountain ghost. But now, Liang Qu rode through Yixing Town and felt the aura of several warriors who were strong, at least above the second level. Population is the root of everything. Being a powerful person in the city and being a powerful person in the town are two different concepts. Whether you can continue to occupy the original ecological chain depends on your ability. The sturdy man in the lead wiped his sweat and said, "Mr. Chen, there are 36 carts in total, all of which are here. I'm watching them. No one dares to steal them." "Thank you for your hard work. When we distribute the grain later, each person will get an extra pound." "It's not hard, it's not hard. You didn't see it, village elder. Our town is the first to get the grain. Other places, like Chaojiang County, oh, now it has to be called Chaojiang Town, have to follow us! By the time they move back, it will probably be dark. I'm afraid they won't have a full meal today." "Then you all have to thank Ah Shui." Chen Zhaoan comforted his beard and laughed, "Otherwise, why do you think you can be the first to move and transport grain?" "Haha, I forgot about this. 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 on the pier responded in a loud voice. "Okay, then I'll go back first. Mr. Chen distributes the grain earlier, so that everyone can have a better dinner." "It should be so." Liang Qu jumped on his horse, and Chishan turned into a red light under the setting sun and disappeared into the horizon. The population of Yixing Town has exceeded 10,000. Many newcomers have remembered Liang Qu in their hearts, and they have different thoughts. They came and went in a hurry. When Liang Qu returned to Yang Mansion, a group of disciples were still distributing grain. Lu Gang, who registered the amount of grain, pulled Liang Qu to be a strong man. He would rather carry grain bags than hold a pen. The county government team has not arrived yet, and only Yang Mansion can take charge of the overall situation. Not to mention that the second senior brother Yu Dun is still the county lieutenant. Although the distribution of grain is not his responsibility, he has to take over due to the shortage of manpower. Today's convoy is only the first one, and there will be two, three, four, and five more to come, and grain will be delivered continuously. Xiang Changsong sat with Liang Qu, and his wolf-hair brush was constantly drawn. While recording, Xiang Changsong revealed a good news-he is about to break through the four levels and become a martial artist, in the next two days! Liang Qu congratulated him: "Do you want to treat us to a meal? I heard that Senior Brother Hu invited us to Langyunlou before." "It must be Langyunlou." Xiang Changsong waved his hand, and a few drops of ink on the wolf hair brush flew out, feeling very happy. "By the way, I still have a few horns of ox-horn pomfret. Do you want them, Senior Brother Xiang?" "Oh, no, it's just a medicine guide. Senior Brother Hu only used a small half last time, and gave me the rest. It's more than enough to make blood coagulation pills." "I have two bigger ones, as big as wolf canine teeth, which should be more effective as medicine guides." Xiang Changsong's eyes lit up: "Then I'd be disrespectful to refuse." "No problem, I'll get it for you later." It was midnight after the food was distributed. The master's wife went to bed early, and only the master and the senior brothers were there to chat. The maid brought the teapot and was about to pour tea. Liang Qu took the teapot and poured tea for the brothers one by one, starting with the master. Yang Dongxiong and several brothers looked at each other with a smile. Xu Zishuai took a sip and pointed out something: "Xiaojiu, if you are too attentive for no reason, you are either a traitor or a thief!" "Brother Xu, you are joking. I am the youngest and I should do all this." Yang Dongxiong drank it all in one gulp and put the cup back on the tea tray: "Okay, just tell me what's going on."
Liang Qu stepped forward and filled it 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. I just heard from the older generation that it was waded out by a dragon. What's wrong?" "I have always heard this rumor, so I am very curious. Today, Bai Tian followed the Guolong River upstream and found a lake when passing through a dense forest. It was neither big nor small, and it was half a mile wide. " "Half a mile? That's really not small." Yang Dongxiong frowned, "Did you find something in it?" "To be honest with you, Master, there are a lot of sturgeons in the lake, everywhere. These creatures eat meat, so they shouldn't gather together. The most peculiar thing is that there are three big sturgeons at the entrance of the lake, each more than five meters long! The aura is definitely that of a monster, shaking like a guard dog!" Yu Dun, Lu Gang and other senior brothers all sat up straight. Monsters are like tigers, they all have their own territory, and there is only one possibility for them to gather together and live in harmony. Something more powerful is pressing. A big sturgeon monster, or... a sturgeon demon? Several senior brothers licked their lips. Sturgeon monsters are good things, especially the big tendon in the body, which can increase muscle strength after eating! The tendons of sturgeon monsters are even more amazing. Eating them when young can improve one's talent! It's a pity that the big monsters in the water are really hard to deal with. If you are not careful, they will run away. How rare is the tendon of a sturgeon monster. But after listening to the description of my junior brother, this terrain is also very good. It's a disadvantage for people to fight fish underwater, but if the exit of a lake is blocked and water is pumped out, won't it be at the mercy of others? Yang Dongxiong was salivating after hearing this, and missed the deliciousness of 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..." "Sturgeons look like dragons, so fishermen call them sturgeons. I think if there are really big monsters or even monsters, they shouldn't be confined to a small lake. I suspect there are some other things in it. Cross the Dragon River, cross the Dragon River, the dragon wades the river. I have heard this rumor countless times, so is there a possibility that there is really something left by the dragon in it, which makes the sturgeon king reluctant to leave?" Ten birds in the forest are not as good as one bird in the hand. You don't have to fight to the death for advanced dungeons! You can also find a substitute! When Liang Qu said this, everyone present couldn't sit still and had a lot of imagination. What if there are really remnants of dragons? 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 they could not stop exclaiming in their hearts. The fate of a long dragon crossing the river is so terrifying. Liang Qu felt that his fate of a long dragon crossing the river was really a versatile excuse, which would only make people think that it was really easy for him to get resources in the water. "The matter of the dragon is not urgent for the time being. After all, it is a water beast. If it is really a monster, I will have to spend some effort and need to make long-term plans. There is an important matter the day after tomorrow." Yang Dongxiong pulled out a gold stamp from his sleeve and passed it to Yu Dun, who was on the lower left hand, to circulate. "Someone sent a visiting card this afternoon, saying that he wanted to open a martial arts school in Pingyang County and wanted to come to us to learn from each other." "Isn't that a challenge? What's your background? 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 passed it to the fifth sister next to him. To be honest, he was quite surprised. It was not a surprise that someone wanted to come to open a martial arts school to challenge the school. Pingyang Town suddenly became Pingyang County, and the population increased by more than ten times. The martial arts school recruited disciples and was the most population-intensive. There must be many capable people following, and it was inevitable that there would be a challenge. But why not challenge anyone else? Why did you come to challenge Yang's martial arts school? I haven't heard that there are people more powerful than 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 between apprentices." The fifth sister read it more carefully and pointed out the content above, "The invitation says that even if the master is powerful, the apprentice he teaches may not be powerful. Since it is a martial arts school, the skills of the apprentices must be compared." "Tsk." Xu Zishuai crossed his legs and slumped on the armchair, "Then he is not afraid that his apprentice will be beaten to death by me?" Sixth brother Cao Rang took the invitation and shook his head: "No, I think this person is probably coming for Xiaojiu." "Me?" Liang Qu took the invitation and checked it carefully, and found that it was true. The other party clearly proposed that both sides should select three apprentices to compete. Select the oldest, middle and youngest three from the time period of accepting apprentices. The eldest brother is not here, in other words, it is the second brother, the fifth sister and him. I have been in the door for less than five months, and it is obvious that he is regarded as a breakthrough? Xu Zishuai also understood: "This guy knows his own strength and doesn't want to win at all. Is he planning to win one out of three games? I guess he has accepted a youngest disciple with great talent!" Master Yang is such a person, so the disciples he taught are naturally not bad. Winning one out of three games is better than winning all 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 man.
It's a pity... Xu Zishuai touched his chin. When teaching Liang Qu the spear, he could feel that his little junior brother's strength was stronger than that of a fourth-level martial artist. Afterwards, a master certified that he was born with martial bones and had infinite strength. His martial arts talent is even more extraordinary. He can understand any moves at a glance and can learn them as soon as he gets started. He can practice the fighting style in more than a month. Not to mention that his fate is still a long dragon crossing the river, which is extremely fierce. Is the other party sure that he has chosen the right person? Even if Eighth Junior Brother comes, he has a slight chance of winning...
