Chapter 1267: River God Manifests (Seeking monthly votes at the start of the month, two-in-one, 5k4)

"Eh, this this this, Elder Dragon Carp is really too polite, how can I be embarrassed."

"No problem, my Yellow Sand Dragon Carp clan is the most hospitable. Those who come and go, who isn't treated like a guest, with a reputation everywhere. Huai King comes to govern the water, all water beasts are too late to be grateful.

Not to mention much, not to mention little, this is the Yellow Sand specialty treasure fish, Red Gold Tail, hard to find outside, 3,000 taels a fish, nourishing Yin and Yang, brought for the Princess."

Liang Qu looked up and sighed: "The water of Yellow Sand is muddy and turbid, the affection of Dragon Carp is sincere and true!"

"Hahaha, Huai King is polite." Elder Dragon Carp's dragon whiskers floated, fish fins turned into sharp claws, hooked two fibrous grasses, hung two treasure fish, lowered his voice, and stuffed them into Liang Qu's hand, "If there are good goods in the future, remember my Yellow Sand Dragon Carp clan!"

"Rest assured, definitely, definitely! Dragon Carp clan is my friend in Jianghuai."

Belly full, pockets full.

On the Yellow Shahe, Dragon Carp floated in unison, waving fish fins.

Liang Qu walked on the water, waving goodbye with emotion.

The Elder waved his fish fins, and in an instant, on the muddy water road, Dragon Carp jumped out of the water one after another, their huge bodies of more than ten feet brought out water splashes, shining in the sunlight, they crossed each other in mid-air, dived down, and the figures and water splashes gathered into a temporary arch, enthusiastically seeing off the Great Shun Huai King.

Fishermen on both banks were surprised, shook the rafts to the shore, and shouted Carp Jumping Over the Dragon Gate.

The noise dissipated.

"Not good, Elder, the clan-suppressing cultivation method 'Dragon Spirit Technique' was given away like this?" Carp Shi Si asked, "That Huai King went to the inheritance place, definitely got a lot of benefits. We gave it all at once, next time there's nothing to sell, the Long Wang's reappearance will take ten or so years, should have split it into upper, middle, and lower parts, sell it three times to be worth it!"

Elder Dragon Carp stroked his long beard, not caring.

"Without Dragon-seed bloodline, other races can't practice 'Dragon Spirit Technique' at all, it's just Jianghuai Dragon-seeds practicing, not worth worrying about. Not to mention—do you think the Elder is really that honest? Didn't move the fish fins on the cultivation method?"

Carp Shi Si was shocked: "Elder changed the cultivation method? Can this work?"

"Nonsense!" Elder Dragon Carp slapped Carp Shi Si with a fish fin, giving him two rolls, belly facing the sky, "Changing the cultivation method to cause problems is offending people, can there be essence blood given to you later?

It's that you need the dragon bone of the predecessor as a guide to practice, I didn't tell him the most critical point, without seeds, no matter how they practice, the Jianghuai Dragon-seeds won't be able to practice it!"

The group of carp admired.

"Hmph, my Dragon Carp clan is unruly, not stupid!"

Yellow Sand water surged eastward. Early on, Liang Qu said a carp had two Qi signatures, Elder Dragon Carp vaguely understood what was going on, and after the other party insisted on going to the inheritance place, it was even more certain.

The same Dragon Carp, just relying on a cultivation method, how could it practice two completely different "Qi signatures"?

It was nothing more than one self, and one Dragon Spirit left by the fallen predecessor!

In other words.

The so-called Qi signature perceived by the other party was actually two generations of Great Demons of the Dragon Carp clan!

"Go, call the Elders of the Dragon Loach and Yellow Thorn clans, Huai King came to govern the water, inevitably there are many inconveniences, this person's hands should have more than that bit of essence blood, in the era of alternation, more preparations can safely pass through the crisis."

"Understood!"

Dragon Carp swam, floating up and down.

The cultivation method stone slabs were handed over to the waiting Fist.

Three rubbing slabs broke into the 【Vortex Escape Path】, spanning tens of thousands of miles north and south, and came to the Dragon Palace.

Water algae were faint, fire trees and silver flowers bloomed.

The hedgehog ran busily, Dragon People, Dragon Sturgeon shuttled and appeared.

"The Da He Li clan's selection competition, changed to open at Chen time on June 6th, held for thirteen sessions, each group arranged in different fiefdoms, if possible, arranged on the top of the tree building, add money to let the Sky Boat Chamber of Commerce build a competition venue on the top floor.

The center of the competition venue can place Phoenix Fairy Fish, as the Yixing mascot, each session decides a Great Artisan title, Huai King additionally sponsors the Da He Li clan with 30,000 jin of top-grade minerals, shop advertising recruitment—"

"Princess, what about the Tridacna clan of the East Sea? According to your order, they have been temporarily settled in the water area near Jiangchuan County." The hedgehog raised his claws to ask.

"Tridacna clan—"

Long Eying was subtly influenced, remembered the "safe" concept Liang Qu mentioned casually, combined with the situation, almost came to hand, "Let them go to various places in Jiangchuan County and the floating island first, then teach tourists to find designated Tridacna, spend money to store the valuables they bought—no need to choose again, let Old Shell lead—

The Sea Workshop Master has extra preparations this year, combined with the Sky Boat Chamber of Commerce in Nanzhili, hold a water-land treasure auction, you print and distribute the treasure catalog as soon as possible, let the Tridacna clan go on stage to show treasures. Two-pronged approach, leave an impression first."

The hedgehog nodded and recorded seriously.

"Except for these, other activities of last year basically remain unchanged, all must continue, also the 'check-in' pattern design for the thirteen fiefdoms is not ready yet, the poet group still needs to spend money to invite this year, as for the inn—"

"Whoosh."

Fist held the stone slab high and broke into the Dragon Palace.

Long Eying understood simply, wrote a comment, and added this matter to the top of the dense work list in recent days.

The stone slab residual charm, copied into hundreds of registers.

"Elders, this is the Yellow Shahe 'Dragon Spirit Technique,' let the clansmen who received the essence blood today, and the Sturgeon clan practice together, if there are any problems in cultivation, feedback in time—"

【Dew Seed: 4】

In front of the Yellow Shahe, behind the green wheat fields.

Coming out of the Dragon Carp clan, Liang Qu came here, sat cross-legged and looked at the great river, communicating with the Ze Cauldron.

In the past year, the harvest was very much, but things came one after another, and he didn't have time to count them.

Brilliance flashed.

Rare to count the current inventory.

Rich!

Unprecedentedly rich.

Dragon-seed Qi in the Yellow Shahe was easier to find than imagined, and more than imagined.

Thirty-six wisps of Dragon-seed Qi, enough to raise Ying Dragon favor to the tenth layer next!

Yellow Sand was already so rich in Qi, what about the White Long Wang side? That side was the true inheritance that hadn't been broken.

"The upper limit of Ying Dragon favor layers must be higher than River Lord, maybe there is a big transformation, if the third divine ability is transformed to the second stage, maybe there is a big benefit—" Liang Qu pondered.

Heaven Pass Earth Axis was really easy to use.

In addition, Liang Qu clearly remembered that Ying Dragon favor had an ability, called Drawing the River with the Tail, maybe it had a miraculous effect on governing water!

Besides Dragon-seed Qi, it belonged to the number of Heaven-Earth Long Qi, speaking of which, with Liang Qu's current resources, he could raise River Lord favor by another layer.

Previously on the Lu Cang River, the River Lord Emperor's favor sublimation was completed, up to the 17th layer, leaving nine wisps of Heaven-Earth Long Qi, all were sweet dew, after that to the Northern Court, two Prince's Mansions, earned four more superior Long Qi.

Among the four, one was given to Senior Brother Yang Xu, one was exchanged for Ran Zhongshi in the capital, Ran Zhongshi's was directly given to the Mysterious Xuan Huang Pai exchanged Mysterious Yellow Qi, and a portion of superior medicine.

But excluding the Long Qi that really existed in the Ze Cauldron, Liang Qu had another five Mysterious Yellow Cards in the Northern Court battle, Eying wife also had one, totaling six "waiting to be exchanged."

Adding up to eighteen wisps of Heaven-Earth Long Qi, soon Bing Fire day would reach nineteen.

Pity.

Nine wisps of sweet dew Long Qi had to be prepared for Dragon People promotion, otherwise Liang Qu would have exchanged them for more lower-grade Long Qi.

Next was the Dew Seed bred by himself.

Old toad's promotion was during the New Year, at that time he ate one, left two, later Liang Qu fought south and north for a year, added two, totaling four, now entering summer, soon the spring-summer season would come out.

Dew Seed had many functions, also prolonging life, more able to replace Long Qi to build divine abilities, just the output was slower, one per season before, one per two seasons after refining, six years equaled one wisp.

"When I have a thousand-fold root sea, can I restore to one per season?"

Water Marsh Essence didn't need to be said, promotion to Sky Dragon, "ability to earn essence" increased greatly, two major events, one portion of water-attribute lower-grade creation medicine, could reach a million.

Excluding the treasures in the Ze Cauldron.

Nine peerless merits left, thirty-nine great merits left, not enough to exchange for Mysterious Yellow Cards.

What was exchanged was that the root sea had already reached 420 times.

The number of silver was relatively chaotic, Liang Qu's personal account and fiefdom were mixed together, not lacking small money, no big money, but quite a lot of debt, there was more than 20 million.

"Don't know how Frog Duke is doing in the North Sea, if can't find materials, then have to buy from the Imperial Observatory, debt will be more than 30 million, 40 million—

This River God Festival, should also have more than 100 favor, winter's should also be on the process, one year maybe can save 1-2 points of governance degree, 20 years 60 points—

River wind was vast, with a smell of sand and soil.

Liang Qu held his knees and stood up.

Benefit collection came to an end, should be busy with the official business ordered by the imperial court, make some achievements in half a month, convenient to have a reason to rest, return to Yixing to hold the River God Festival.

In front of the sand river surging, behind the green wheat fields, waves with the wind.

This location was in the middle section of Yuzhou, the area where the ground river was relatively serious, couldn't see by the river, go further, the whole Yellow Shahe, like floating on the surface, a dirt-made Great Wall.

Sheepskin rafts rose and fell, occasionally carrying people across the river, also considered a major feature of the Yellow Shahe. Couldn't see this kind of inflatable boat on the Huai River.

No other reason.

Yellow Sand water was surging, rapids were fierce, ordinary board small boats were easy to enter water and capsize, spinning on the river surface, must be this kind of inflatable boat to be stable enough, sheepskin tanned and then tough, decades without breaking, how to hit waves can float, key is also light, can carry on back and go.

So there was a saying "downstream people ride rafts, upstream rafts ride people."

The boats in Jiangnan had a style, boasting that the black-awning boat was rowed well, was to put a dish of fennel beans on the edge of the black-awning boat, eat while rowing, not spilling a bean, full of leisure.

The sheepskin raft of Yellow Sand only had the hardship of making a living, those with good technology, just look at whether the age is big or not, because those with poor technology were directly rolled into the wave and fed to the fish.

Can see a spot.

Farmers carried poles to water, interspersed on the field ridges.

Late May, just in the grain filling period of wheat, is the key moment to determine the yield, a little negligence, lack of water, the harvest in the field will be much worse.

Start from here!

"Young man, from out of town, right? Look at your appearance, not dry, from the south?"

The old man with white hair and frost stars on his temples, dark skin, carrying a pole, passed by, dropped the empty bucket to talk, the accent was not heavy, considered the type Liang Qu could understand.

"Yes, old man, from Nanzhili." Liang Qu turned his waist, stretched his body.

"Nanzhili? That's far, no wonder your official language is good."

"Used to be far, now doesn't the imperial court have waterways? Drill into it, half a day is done."

"Water rice? How to drill water rice?" The old man was confused, "We plant wheat, eat steamed buns!"

"Hahaha, no problem, no problem, steamed buns are good, the ones just steamed are the best, sweet, old man, you have something?"

"Nothing, it's just that someone over there saw you standing still, and you're a stranger, suspected you wanted to steal vegetables in the field." The old man raised his chin, "I came over to take a look, closer look, ho, your clothes, noble, where do you look like someone who steals vegetables?

Just be careful going to some remote places, let people strip your clothes and sell them, just you alone coming out to break through, must also be a martial artist, even if you are young, have ability, don't let people cheat you easily."

"Old man is talkative, just right, kid asks you something."

"Say, is it asking for directions? You found the right person, this ten-mile eight-town, there is nothing I don't know." The old man was nine-tenths proud.

"Not asking for directions."

"Not asking for directions? That is asking about things." The old man heard this and sat down directly, pulled out the dry tobacco pipe from his waist, looking like he had a lot of talk. "What thing, just ask."

Liang Qu pulled a dog-tail grass, matched with the old man's dry tobacco and held it in his mouth: "Qinghe Gong, do you recognize him?"

"Ho!" The old man wasn't surprised by the lighting, just thought it was some martial artist method, instead was shocked by the Qinghe Gong matter, looked left and right, "You ask about the River God?"

"He is also a River God?"

The old man stared: "Young man, what do you mean by also? Is there a second River God in the Yellow Shahe?"

"Maybe the Huai River God came to visit?"

"Hey, you young man, luckily you are from Nanzhili, speaking really not afraid at all, gods and spirits, can't talk nonsense."

"Fine fine fine, you continue."

Liang Qu pulled a dog-tail grass, matched with the old man's dry tobacco and held it in his mouth.

"Qinghe Gong, he has been there for thousands of years, since I was young I heard, Qinghe Gong, clear sand river, every year must sacrifice, harvest well must kill sheep!"

Liang Qu automatically ignored thousands of years.

Seen from the eyes of mortals, demon kings, martial saints are almost immortal, after five or six generations, memory automatically becomes "thousands of years," actually Qinghe Gong is just a big green fish, became a demon king more than 260 years ago, Sky Dragon Fourth or Fifth Stage.

The old man talked one after another, all about the River God manifesting.

"Just all manifesting, no time when angry?"

"Yes, how not, gods also have tempers, remember when I was young, one year the River God was angry, big water broke the river embankment, that big girl was tied to the pillar, crying loudly, the magistrate pulled hard and didn't let, young man, you guess what?"

"What? The magistrate came out, that can still let people sacrifice successfully?"

"Wrong! The magistrate was knocked out, the sixteen-year-old girl was directly sunk into the river! A few times and there was no sound, hey, that was called a pitiful, I haven't seen a girl more beautiful than that girl from then until now, after throwing it down the big water didn't retreat, I followed my parents to escape to the mountain, remember it could be three or four days?"

".."

"—"

Liang Qu was speechless for a while.

Living human sacrifice, this thing is everywhere, the more remote the more, local people can't seek help, just entrust to ghosts and gods.

But Yellow Shahe is dangerous, the living human sacrifice here is much more than Huai River, so various strange legends are also much more than Huai River.

Just pull a person of age, what transparent coffin, corpse fisherman three fish three don't fish, snake girl, copper bell full of little snakes—all tell you clearly, have nightmares in the middle of the night.

This kind of thing has nothing to do with Qinghe Gong, demon king eats something, can't eat, want to eat people? And it's not Peng Ze old turtle, likes to collect figures, if he saw it, he would probably be too lazy to pay attention.

"Won't be in the future." Liang Qu stood up, patted the dust on his butt.

"What?" The old man looked up, puffed on the tobacco, didn't understand what it meant, suddenly his eyelids jumped, hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, "You wouldn't be the magistrate coming to take office, right? Oh my, so young, bright future, this old man has eyes but doesn't know—"

Before the words fell, a shadow flashed on the ground, raising a breeze.

The old man looked up, the young man who was talking to himself disappeared without a trace, his peripheral vision turned, seeing the person jump.

Jumped into the river!

"Eh! Magistrate, Magistrate, can't, can't! This Yellow Shahe water is dangerous, there are water ghosts and water monkeys, if you go in, they will pull your legs! Come people, come people."

No one answered the old man, only the surging Yellow Shahe.

However, the next moment.

Big waves hit, hitting both banks, accompanied by the young man jumping into the river, the whole Yellow Shahe became more surging, several feet high river water rolled up yellow soil and fell back, millions of tons of mud and sand floated, as if a yellow dragon was bound by the river bed, shaking left and right, opening the space around him, before others could react to what was going on.

"Boom boom boom."

The earth shook, thunder came out of the mountain.

It seemed that what just jumped into the river was not a person, but a big firecracker, exploding a big water bag, and breaking the chain that bound the long dragon.

The trapped dragon broke the lock, the yellow dragon raised its head!

The long river blocked the dazzling sun, hung upside down in the sky, the old man's pupils expanded rapidly, his breathing stopped completely.

The trapped dragon breaks its chains, the Huang Long raises its head!

The earth absorbed the river water, the wheat fields were greener.

Just when people looked directly at the yellow dragon, at a loss, their brains dominated by fear.

The situation changed suddenly!

No climbing ashore, no hitting the river embankment, the yellow dragon wound up to the sky, flew high into the clouds, dived straight down, and crashed into the river bed! Accompanied by a huge sound like thunder.

The surging yellow sand water actually sank again, the water level of the entire sand river kept falling!

The fisherman opened his mouth wide.

The dull sound shook endlessly, dispersing the cumulus clouds, the earth shook gently, the wheat fields shook out light waves, it was simply the Long Wang roaring, walking water, and getting angry at the bottom of the Yellow Shahe!

Mud and sand rose from the river bed, stones rolled and floated, rushing east, countless small fish wagged their tails, swimming in panic, the steaming water mist reflected rainbows in the sunlight.

The water level fell more and more exaggeratedly, and the river banks on both sides gradually bulged.

Magnificent.

Vast.

Such beautiful scenery, such a miracle!

The people on both banks didn't dare to look up, just kowtowed and worshipped.

The villagers knelt on the ground, praying to the heavens.

The thunder lasted for more than a quarter of an hour.

The roaring subsided, the river wind gradually slowed down, as if the yellow dragon had walked the water and left, rushing into the sea, the muddy water level fell gurglingly, revealing the yellow mud on both banks, and continuous bubbles emerged from the gaps in the yellow mud.

The river flowed steadily, still muddy, but stable eastward, no waves seen.

No terrifying waves of rushing and swirling.

No thunder of wave collision.

Everything was like a hallucination, only the moist land testified.

"Ha—ha—"

How—what happened?

What happened?

The sheepskin raft rose and fell, the raft guest looked around at the towering mud walls on both banks in surprise, breathing violently, the bamboo pole in his hand didn't know where it drifted.

Suddenly.

The water flow bulged, rolled a bamboo pole, and placed it on the sheepskin raft.

The raft guest was dumbfounded.

"River God! River God manifests! River God manifests!"

The old man ran on the field ridge, shouting and yelling.
