There is a water monster near Yixing Town. ɱ Strange things. There is one of the most basic and long-term sources of merit in the river station - killing the monsters in the water. The main purpose of its mission is to maintain the safety of trade routes, expand the fishing range of fishermen, and indirectly provide more tax revenue and more treasure plants. The manpower of the river bank is limited, but the water area of Jianghuai Daze is wide. Other Hebo river chiefs who were responsible for the management often failed to kill the people. The marked safe waters were infested with monsters, and boats were destroyed and people died. Liang Qu remembered that a few of them made a serious fuss and were punished. Notices were posted in the document room. One of the serious ones was even stripped of his official title. However, near Yixing Town, he had several powerful spirits under his command. According to Du Shuilang's judgment, the safe waters around Yixing Town are marked for sixty miles. Ordinary fishermen cannot walk back and forth in a day, which is far away from other rivers. As long as nothing happens in the monthly marked water area, excluding the ten-mile basic water area that should be there, one for every five miles, he can add ten small merits!
I really didn't expect that such disasters would appear under my rule. This is nothing more than monsters causing trouble. It was clearly a slap in his face to Suicune Yoshihei! Without hesitation, Liang Qu put on his official uniform, put on arm guards, and carried Fu Bo out with Li Libo. "There is a curfew in Binghuo. Everyone goes out to catch fish during the day. Chen Jiechang and I go to the martial arts school to teach every morning and go out to patrol the river in the afternoon. I was planning to go home for dinner after dark today, but when I arrived at the port, I heard a spirit coming out. It was said to be more than three feet long, and it damaged two fishing boats. It was very close to the shore, only seven miles away. " Li Libo spoke in more detail on the way. "Two fishing boats? Are there any dead?" “No one died, but one was injured. His son said his foot slipped while diving and he hit the edge of the boat and broke his arm. When the man fell into the water and was unable to swim, he choked and fainted. However, he was rescued by his son. He was conscious when he returned to the shore and seemed to have no serious problems. Jiechang took them to the medical center and asked about the situation. I came to see Brother Shui first. " "Three feet is almost in the category of big spirits. Even if it's not, it's still one of the stronger ones." Liang Qu thought. With such strength, ordinary Hebo couldn't deal with it, and he slipped into his own waters unknowingly. Fat Catfish and the others have killed so many spirits, and they have clearly told the spirits everywhere that there are "ferocious beasts" here. Is it because of the Bing Fire Day? He thought of the Jiang Otter family who had failed in their own home. Li Libo couldn't help but nod: "It's three feet too big. Jiechang and I didn't dare to look for it. It's probably because of the Binghuo Day. There have been more than a dozen of them in the past half month." Liang Qu was startled: "More than a dozen? So many? Why didn't I know?" "Twelve or three, they are all small characters. Most of them are not monsters, but predators and big fish. Jiechang and I can handle it with just a Xuanshui fork. Once the fork is pushed down, no matter how thick the skull is, it will be poked." Wear it right.
If not, it's better to ask people from the martial arts school for help. Those people are energetic and proactive. I heard they can kill monsters and run faster than anyone else. There's no need to come out and trouble Brother Shui. " Li Libo patted his chest. Liang Qu suddenly realized. Each He Bo comes with a Xuanshui Fork as standard. He cannot use it himself and leaves it to Li Libo and Chen Jiechang for self-defense. In addition, the fat catfish cannot be touched. They have almost cleaned up the area. The remaining ones are useless. Even if they encounter a Binghuo day, their destructive power is limited. Two people can indeed solve it. Only this time they knew that there was a three-foot-large thing, and they came to tell Liang Qu when they couldn't handle it. I feel ashamed when I think about it. Since taking office, Liang Qu has done almost no work. The task of patrolling the river on weekdays is left to Chen Jiechang and Li Libo. The small success depends entirely on his group of water beasts. The most common thing I do is to receive merit and redeem treasure plants. … A few torches were lit in Shangrao Port, and there were longing figures on the bluestone slabs. The sampans and awnings were piled up against the berths, making noises as they were pushed by Jiang Tao. As the curfew approached, all the fishing boats docked. Looking from a distance, it looked like a layer of fine fish scales had grown on the shore. The fishermen who had just returned from the boat were talking a lot. "Weird, is that water monster really three feet long?" The black-faced man danced: "Is that true? Did you see the red water monster at the River God Festival? It might be bigger than that! It just looks different." Someone questioned: "How do you know? Have you encountered it too?" The black-faced man shook his head: "I didn't meet him." "Then how do you know?" "A-Liang lives next door to my house. He said when he came ashore that old people are worthless. Didn't you see? Ah-Liang's father's hand is horribly broken and swollen. If he goes there too late, he might become a cripple!" Everyone felt a little regretful when they heard this. "Such a big water monster must weigh tens of thousands of kilograms, right?" "Ten thousand? How many people are there in our port? After the red demon is divided, there is still something left. I think it's hundreds of thousands of kilograms!" "We will never be able to eat that much meat in our lifetime." "Eat, eat, eat, just know how to eat, Qili Land! It's so close, how dare you go out to fish if it's alive? If you don't fish, you won't even be able to eat rice!" "Shush, Master Liang, Master Liang is here!" "Where, oh, oh, I saw it, I saw it!"
Moonlight spreads. Liang Qu walked from Qingshi Street with a long gun on his back, he was particularly eye-catching. Everyone gathered around, all talking. "Master Liang is here, and Daze will be at peace!" "Thank you, Mr. Liang." "Master Liang smokes!" Someone pushed a yellowed pipe stuffed with tobacco leaves into Liang Qu's mouth, but he politely pushed it away. Li Libo looked around and saw no sign of Chen Jiechang. "Jie Chang hasn't come back yet?" "Didn't see it." "I guess I'll be back soon." "Hey, it's coming, it's coming, then!" Liang Qu looked in the direction the person was pointing, and happened to see Chen Jiechang running over from Qingshi Street with a young man. The young man is exactly what the fishermen on the shore call A Liang, and he is also the victim of the monster encounter. Seeing the people arriving, Liang Qu waved the crowd to disperse. "The curfew is less than a quarter of an hour away. Everyone, please go back quickly. Don't wait until it's too late and let the county government arrest you." curfew! Liang Qu has an official status and is fine, Chen Jiechang and the others are also acting under orders. Ordinary people do not dare to break the law. As soon as this statement comes out, the birds and beasts disperse. Only the black-faced man was brave enough to ask before leaving: "Master Liang, can you catch the water monster tonight?" The fishermen who were not far away paused slightly, all wanting to know the answer. However, what happened was counterproductive, Liang Qu shook his head. "It's hard to say. If the water monster is in its original place, I can certainly deal with it. If it's not there, I may not be able to find it." The black-faced man had a quick mind: "You mean, can Mr. Liang handle it?" "Got to find it first." Liang Qu emphasized again. "Thank you, Mr. Liang!" "Master Liang is affected!" "Master Liang is so righteous!"
Everyone was overjoyed when they heard this, completely forgetting Liang Qu's preconditions, leaving a few flattering words and leaving the port. Occasionally, they could hear a few "I'll say it" and "Master Liang, that's a big deal" in the wind... Liang Qu shook his head. Everyone has dispersed. Only four people, Liangqu, Chen Jiechang, Li Libo and Ah Liang, remained in Shangrao port. Liang Qu looked at Ah Liang: "Do you still remember the place where you met?" "Remember...remember." Ah Liang looked nervous and stuttered. "Take us there."
