~16 min read 3,182 words

"I always thought that the one with the most hope of becoming a Perfected Form after Liang Ashui would be me. I didn't expect the Senior Brother to be one step ahead. One Dragon, two Elephants, our master's school is becoming more and more prominent." Xu Xu Zishuai touched the dog's head and exhaled mist slightly.

"Ah, most hope, really or fake?" Liang Qu, who was putting a leash on the dog, turned his head, "How come I didn't see it."

Xu Xu Zishuai was unhappy: "It's not that I, the Senior Brother, am talking about you, Junior Brother, you have been away for many years, it is inevitable that you have become a little detached from our master's school. In the ten miles and eight villages, who doesn't know that before you came, I was the one who combined handsomeness and talent————"

"I guarantee it!" Xu family raised her hand.

"Ha!" Xu Xu Zishuai was beaming, "I said so, Master's eyes are bright. No, Liang Ashui, what is your expression? You have no respect for your elders! Master, look at him."

"Didn't see it."

"Hahahaha! Senior Brother, thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, don't take the moment as permanent. Now, the one who combines handsomeness and talent is me!"

Sunny day, slightly windy.

The Flowing Gold Sea was covered with snow, white and dazzling. Faint snow dust was rolled by the wind, passing over the calves, floating along the ice surface. More than one hundred long-haired big dogs shook their fur, shaking off the snow on their necks. Long Long Eying helped the Xu family sit into the sled and fed the lead dog two pieces of frozen meat.

"Master's school being prominent is a good thing." Xiang Xiang Zhangsong interjected, "Today Instructor Lan was reminiscing about the past with us, saying that when sparring, he didn't see that he was a character who could be crowned king."

Hu Qi agreed: "Yeah, in the past, Master was the most powerful in our martial hall, a Hunting Tiger martial artist in the upper realm, belonging to the first-class in Huaiyin. In a blink of an eye, excluding Junior Brother, this Heavenly Dragon, they are almost all Perfected Forms, half Hunting Tiger, half Wolf Smoke. Wait another ten years, then they will all be martial artists, looking at the world's prefectures, they are all major forces with numbers. I don't even dare to think, in the past, I taught Liang Ashui how to fight in the courtyard."

"The days are indeed changing fast, isn't it, we all have the opportunity to come to Heyuan." Sixth Senior Brother Cao Rang joked.

"You guys, at the age of twenty, thirty, forty, like flowers, why do you like to reminisce about the past?" Yang Yang Dongxiong stopped the playfulness of the junior brothers and stroked his long beard, "Get on the car, I haven't seen the Flowing Gold Sea for decades.

In the past, when I was in the Western Army, I often ate maple leaf fish in the Flowing Gold Sea, which was as powerful as the red blood perch in Jianghuai, with delicate meat and cold. At that time, I was tired of eating it, now thinking about it, I really have some nostalgia."

"Alright, go, go, go!" Xu Xu Zishuai stood at the front of the car and pointed, "Liang Ashui, whip the dogs, catch the maple leaf treasure fish, let Master taste if it's the old taste."

"Alright, sit tight, Huai Prince Liang Ashui is driving for you!"

The reins flicked, more than a hundred dogs rushed forward, the sled pressed against the snow, and gradually slid.

The cold original wind refreshed the mind, everyone shouted with arms open, and the oppressive atmosphere of guarding the border was instantly washed away.

"Speaking of which, 'All things echo, telling their names. Mountains and stones have memories, flowing water leaves feelings'————the effect is poetic and picturesque, what is the specific effect?" Ran Ran Zhongshi was curious.

Liang Qu pulled the reins, more than a hundred long-haired dogs clawed, pulling the sled, gradually running: "Everything records some information. Flowing water washes over stones, stones will roll, knocking out tiny scratches.

By the same token, the ground that makes scratches will have information about stones rolling over. Generally speaking, it can completely capture various details, know the cause and effect, as if dead objects can also speak."

"Oh?" Ke Ko Wenbin's eyes lit up, lying on the front, "Good stuff, with this thing, wouldn't it be possible to become a divine catcher?"

"Almost, Senior Brother also thinks so. I originally left several copies of top-grade long Qi, there are 'Returning Wind and Returning Fire' that increase strength, 'Seeing Gaps' that see through, 'Weighing Qi' that exchanges, but he happened to pick this 'Echo', saying it is suitable for his current errand, and it will be easy to change jobs in the future."

"Several? No, Liang Ashui, you are reporting the menu, how much long Qi do you have in your hand?" Ke Ko Wenbin stretched his neck.

The long-haired dogs gradually accelerated, and the velvet on the big dogs flew up.

Liang Qu's voice was blurred in the wind.

"Didn't count carefully, different functions, five, six, seven, eight strands."

"?"

"Big dog household!"

"Woof!" The lead dog raised its head.

Liang Qu pulled the rope, letting the lead dog continue to run: "I am a dignified crowned king, okay, how many crowned kings are there in the whole Da Shun, is it strange to have several strands of top-grade long Qi?"

Xu Xu Yuelong thought: "Your Senior Brother has such long Qi, it is indeed easy to change jobs in the future, especially the Three Dharma Departments, a Perfected Form grandmaster who specializes in solving cases goes to an important prefecture, and can be the number one person."

"I know a few places, there are vacancies in personnel scheduling." Su Guishan spoke.

"Oh, Uncle has this way?"

Su Guishan was proud: "In the early years, the old man traveled to mountains and waters, traveled north and south, and spent money like water, and was generous, so I met many people, the Imperial Capital, Nanzhili all have friends, although most of them have no prospects, but there are also many in high positions. Your search for the beaver clan was also handled by me entrusting people."

"Ho!"

"Hey————" Xiang Fangsu sighed, "Liang Ashui is a Heavenly Dragon crowned king, Liang Ashui's Senior Brother is eating Qi and becoming a Perfected Form, Senior Brother Xu is going to the second realm, Ke Ko Wenbin has a wife, I am a sixth-rank official in the River Po Office, we all have a bright future."

"Hahaha, Seeing Gaps, Returning Fire, Weighing Qi, Sweet Dew." Liang Qu said the effects of these long Qi one by one, "If you see one you like, use a strand of Xuanhuang to paste a medium-grade creation medicine, or two strands of lower-grade long Qi, you can all come to me to exchange."

"Really?" Ran Ran Zhongshi's eyes lit up, "Martial Saint's words count, I won't take it as polite words, I think this Weighing Qi is quite interesting."

In the River Po Office, Ran Ran Zhongshi's age is second only to Xu Xu Yuelong, three or four years older than Ke Ko Wenbin and others, and his position is the highest, and his realm is the same.

A few days ago, he had reached the upper realm of Hunting Tiger, and taking two more steps, he also had the need to eat Qi, and was worrying about what long Qi to choose.

The problem with top-grade long Qi is that it is priceless and in short supply. If a good top-grade one appears, it is basically digested within the circle of acquaintances. If you want to get a strand that suits you, you have to pay a lot of time and energy.

【Weighing Qi: Equivalent to the Buddha, seven-level hanging scale. Cutting feet to fit shoes, with my treasure, exchange for your good.】

This effect, this function, suddenly fell into Ran Ran Zhongshi's heart.

Go back and let the old man work hard, borrow from colleagues, it is definitely possible to exchange for it.

"Why would I lie to you? Three or five years, I'll keep it for you, Brother Ran, no interest."

Exchanging with the Imperial Court is exchanging, and exchanging with people around you is also exchanging. What's the difference? Liang Qu has to consider the suspicion of forming a party for private interests when exchanging with Martial Saints and unfamiliar Perfected Forms everywhere. Ran Ran Zhongshi and these are old acquaintances, they have been colleagues for ten years.

These words immediately stimulated everyone's fighting spirit.

Whether it is Senior Brother or colleague, everyone understands that when it comes to getting treasures, Liang Qu is first-class strong!

"Liang Ashui, what's the arrangement today? I didn't eat lunch." Ke Ko Wenbin asked.

"Don't know, came to Heyuan several times, just seclusion, sleeping, fighting, Senior Brother is in seclusion, all arranged by my wife, wife?"

Long Long Eying said: "First take the dog sled, then go to the ice fishing in the center of the Flowing Gold Sea, I prepared the Heyuan Prefecture specialty sauerkraut hot pot.

Stay in the ice house at night, there should be aurora to see. I asked Long Yao and Long Li to prepare the bedding. Tomorrow morning go to see the bubble lake, afternoon go to mountain hunting, heard that there are many treasure beasts on the Gada Mountain next door."

"Deal!"

"This is good!"

Everyone responded enthusiastically.

"Charge, charge, charge, wait for us to come back, maybe Senior Brother will just happen to leave seclusion."

Snow dust flew.

More than a hundred big dogs like strong horses pulled the sled, long hair flying, running on the ice of the Flowing Gold Sea, bringing up a white dragon.

There is also heavy snow in the Imperial Capital, but the heavy snow in the Imperial Capital is completely different from Heyuan Prefecture. It is not just the thickness of the accumulated snow, but the completely different atmosphere of the two cities.

The Imperial Capital is prosperous, densely populated, and it is not cold enough to be completely unable to go out in winter.

The ground that has just snowed is mostly gaps, with sound-absorbing properties, it should have been quiet, but you can't feel it at all in the Imperial Capital, there is noise before dawn.

Heyuan Prefecture is different.

Out of the Great Wall of Blood and Qi, except for individual small cities and villages, no one is willing to go out, let the cold wind scrape, but anything exposed, instantly red and swollen, chapped skin, like a knife, looking around, vast snow, mountains in the distance, frozen Flowing Gold Sea.

Truly silent, vast and boundless.

Deep water area.

Liang Qu controlled the water to form, Long Long Eying froze it into a house.

A semicircular big house rose from the ground.

Fire stones burned, copper pots smoked.

Da He Li prepared ingredients, Long Yao and Long Li arranged the room, and conveniently pasted spring couplets and inserted cypress branches.

Xu Xu Zishuai used a pufferfish thorn dagger to cut a round opening on the ground.

Fat fish, "Cannot Move", Fist, Round Head sat in four directions, several miles away, stirring up turbulence.

In an instant.

Big fish scrambled to stick their heads out to breathe, struggling to flutter.

Xu Xu Yuelong's eyes were red, grabbed the fishing rod and rushed over.

"It's up, it's up! They are all big fish!"

"Wow, such red fish."

"Master, is the maple leaf fish you mentioned this one?"

"Eh?" Yang Yang Dongxiong walked out of the ice house, his eyes lit up, "Red as maple leaves, top-grade maple leaf fish, where did it come from?"

"Don't know, it came up by itself."

"Terrible, we are lucky, treasure fish delivered to the door!"

Long-haired big dogs crawled at their feet.

Liang Qu poured himself a cup of tea, basking in the sun watching everyone pull fish.

Ordinary people's winter fishing needs an experienced "fish leader" to lead the team.

Water Lord doesn't need it.

Before the New Year, Senior Brother Yang Xu happened to leave seclusion, which was not Liang Qu's wishful thinking.

The battle ended in November, Liang Qu slept until mid-December, and now it is late January. Yang Xu started preparations at the end of November, entered seclusion to eat Qi in mid-December, ordinary people eat Qi, normally one month up and down, nearly forty days, it should be time to leave seclusion.

The Northern Court nervously watched the Huai Prince running around between Heyuan and Shuofang Terrace.

Third day.

"Look at mine, what a fat criminal!"

"That won't work, look at mine, mine is fat, no wounds, knocked out by a stone! The silly embrace is really silly, how much did it eat this autumn."

"It's a pity, my nephew Little Stone didn't come this year, otherwise he would definitely like it."

"It's New Year, the Xu Yue Prince is a crowned king, can't walk around casually, definitely with his own father and mother, after the New Year there should be an opportunity, everyone come again together."

The prey was abundant, hanging at the waist, everyone walked out of the birch forest with laughter.

Liang Qu suddenly stopped.

A man led by a soldier stood at the foot of the mountain early, laughing and waving.

"Father, Mother! Junior Brother, Junior Sister!"

"Big! Senior! Brother!"

"Sizzle!"

Oil flowers exploded.

The top-level chef in Heyuan Prefecture burned the pot with fierce fire, and when a layer of smooth oil film was burned out in the iron pot, the big spoon entered the new lard, poured in the ingredients, smoke rolled.

Beside the character-shaped big stove, there was another half-person-high newly built small stove, much shorter, Da He Li wore a small white hat, glanced at the chef next to him, arms crossed, proudly raised his head forty-five degrees, waited for the small otter to hand over the tray, and popped out sharp claws.

Cold light flashed.

Two quarters of an hour ago, the fresh treasure fish just fished out of the Flowing Gold Sea, the fish bones were completely peeled out, the fish body was sliced into crystal clear fish slices, neatly placed in a white porcelain plate, sprinkled with onion shreds, ginger shreds, poured with scorching hot oil, the fish skin shrank, half

curled up.

A furry claw stretched out, the small river otter pinched two pieces and stuffed them into its mouth, wiped the oil flowers on its claws, held the white porcelain plate high above its head, and ran to the dining table through the corridor with heat.

Boiled fish slices poured into many porcelain plates.

Cups and dishes intertwined, the banquet was in full swing, noisy and boiling.

"Pity, the Master is not here this year, otherwise people would be more complete!" Xu Xu Zishuai sighed.

"Eh! Almost forgot, it's really not necessarily not here." Liang Qu raised his index finger.

"Ah?" Xu Xu Zishuai was surprised, "Master is not a crowned king of the Imperial Court, can't come to the border casually, right?"

"Can't come, ding ding!"

Everyone saw Liang Qu mysterious, turned around and turned again, don't know where he took out a string of wood-colored prayer beads.

"This is————" Yang Yang Dongxiong was startled.

"Master's mysterious weapon!" Third Senior Brother Lu Gang recognized it at a glance.

"That's right! Master's mysterious weapon, Long Li, add a stool!"

With the old toad's reminder, to deal with the Great Snow Mountain's venerable master's means, evil monk special attack, Liang Qu specially sent Da He Li to the Hanging Temple halfway to call for air strike support. After the incident, worried about accidents, the old monk never took back the mysterious weapon, just in case.

Personally hung the old monk's prayer beads on the stool and poured tea.

Liang Qu looked around.

"Alright, all complete, all complete, the Martial Saint and the mysterious weapon are connected in heart, whatever we say, the Master also knows!

Hurry, hurry, hurry! Who says the blessing this year? Who says the blessing?"

"Of course it is————"

Everyone looked around and looked at Yang Xu in unison.

"Senior Brother! Senior Brother! Senior Brother!"

"The law of the ancestors cannot be changed."

Yang Xu was stunned: "This habit has now become a custom."

"One reunion a year, one blessing a year, this is a thing as important as the sect rules." Xu Xu Zishuai shouted.

"Good! Then I'll come." Yang Xu pondered slightly, raised his glass and stood up, "The year's end is exhausted, the festival opens new fragrance. Winter ends tonight, the year opens tomorrow long!"

"Good!"

"The year's end is exhausted, the festival opens new fragrance. Winter ends tonight, the year opens tomorrow long!"

Cups collided.

Nectar splashed.

Yang Xu said: "I am the Senior Brother, should be a role model, this year I will say the blessing, hope all Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters, can start from this year, everyone take turns, not missing a year!"

"Wow, Senior Brother's requirement is too high, isn't it one Perfected Form a year?"

"Wait, then eight years later, what if it's Liang Ashui's turn? He has already become a Perfected Form."

"This————" Yang Xu stumbled.

Xu family spoke: "One rise a year, when it's Little Nine's turn, it's becoming an immortal!"

"Hahaha, good, good, good, becoming an immortal is good, becoming an immortal is good!"

Liang Qu pinched his eyebrows in pain: "I'm afraid this pressure is greater than Senior Brother and Senior Sister————"

Hanging Temple.

New Year's festival, the Buddhist pagodas in the temple are scattered high and low, lighting orange-red candles.

The old monk had his left hand on his chest, grabbed the rope with his right hand, smiled, shook the bell hammer, and hit the bell three times.

The pond reflected the candlelight, rippling ripples, the bell sound was melodious, ringing through the night.

"What? Return Shuofang Terrace? Are you mistaken?" Liang Qu was dumbfounded, "General He, we have been talking for more than two months, and we talked out the result of returning Shuofang Terrace? How do the soldiers outside look at it?"

"This is the joint resolution of His Majesty and the Cabinet, it has been reached, and cannot be changed." He Ningyuan was just having a headache about how to explain it to the soldiers.

"No————"

Liang Qu couldn't figure it out.

The first time Shuofang Terrace was taken, both sides did not dispatch Heavenly Dragons, did not move for real, plus the world situation was unstable, it could be taken, but could not be digested, earning compensation was reasonable.

Now not only did they move for real, but they also have the ability to digest.

Why take the same path.

"How much stuff does the Northern Court have to compensate to exchange for a Shuofang City? A position fruit?"

"Eh." He Ningyuan raised his head in surprise.

Liang Qu: "?"
