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 is not a guest, with a good reputation. Huai Prince comes to govern the water, all water beasts are grateful."

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

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

"Hahaha, Huai Prince 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 hands, "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."

Stomach full, pockets full.

On the Yellow Sand River, Dragon Carps floated in unison, waving their fish fins.

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

The Elder waved his fish fins. In an instant, on the turbid water road, Dragon Carps jumped out of the water one after another. The huge body of ten zhang brought out water splashes, shining in the sun. 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 Prince.

Fishermen on both banks were surprised, shook their rafts to the shore, and shouted "Carp jumping over the dragon gate."

The noise dissipated.

"Not working, Elder, the town clan cultivation method "Dragon Spirit Gong" was given away like this?" Carp Shisi asked, "That Huai Prince went to the inheritance land, definitely must have taken a lot of benefits. We gave it all at once, and there is nothing to sell next time! Dragon King's reappearance will take more than ten years, should have split it into upper, middle, and lower chapters, sell it three times to be exciting!"

Elder Dragon Carp stroked his long beard, not caring.

"Without dragon-species bloodline, foreign races simply cannot practice "Dragon Spirit Gong", it's just for the Jianghuai dragon-species to practice, not worth worrying about. Besides—do you think the Elder is that honest? Didn't move the fish fins on the cultivation method?"

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

"Nonsense!" Elder Dragon Carp slapped Carp Shisi with a fish fin, giving him two rolls, belly facing the sky, "Changing the cultivation method and causing problems is offending people, how can there be essence blood for you in the future?

It is that there must be the dragon bone of the predecessor as a guide to practice, I didn't tell him this most critical point. Without seeds, no matter how they practice, the Jianghuai dragon-species can't practice it!"

The carp admired.

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

The Yellow Sand water surged eastward. As soon as Liang Qu said that one carp had two Qi machines, Elder Dragon Carp vaguely understood what was going on, and after the other party insisted on going to the inheritance land, it was even more certain.

The same dragon carp, relying on only one cultivation method, how could it practice two completely different "Qi machines"?

It was nothing more than one self, and one dragon spirit left by the fallen predecessor!

In other words.

The Qi machine that the other party perceived was actually two generations of Great Demons of the Dragon Carp clan!

"Go, you call the elders of the Dragon Loach and Yellow Thorn clans, Huai Prince came to govern the water, there must be many inconveniences, this person has more than that essence blood in his hand, in the era of alternation, more preparations can safely survive the crisis."

"Understand!"

Dragon Carp dived, floating up and down.

The cultivation method stone slab was handed over to the waiting Fist.

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

Water algae were quiet, and fire trees and silver flowers were in full bloom.

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

"The Beaver clan's selection competition, changed to the morning of June 6th to open, held 13 games in a row, each group placed in different fiefs, if conditions permit, arrange on the top of the tree building, add money to let the Heaven Ship Chamber of Commerce build a competition venue on the top floor.

The center of the competition venue can place Phoenix Immortal Fish, as the mascot of Yixing, each game decides a Master title, Huai Prince additionally sponsors the Beaver clan with 30,000 jin of top-grade minerals, shop advertising recruitment—"

"Princess, what about the Tridacna clan of the East Sea? They have been temporarily settled in the water area near Jiangchuan County according to your orders." The hedgehog raised his claws and asked.

"Tridacna clan—"

Long Long Eying was influenced by what she saw and heard, and remembered the concept of "safe" that 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 Heaven Ship Chamber of Commerce in Nanzhili, to hold a water and land treasure auction, you print and distribute the treasure catalog as soon as possible, let the Tridacna clan go on stage to exhibit treasures. Double-pronged approach, leave an impression first."

The hedgehog nodded and recorded seriously.

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

"Clatter."

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

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

The stone slab had lingering charm, copied into hundreds of booklets.

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

【Dragon-species aura: 36】

【Dew Seed: 4】

In front of the Yellow Sand River, behind the green wheat fields.

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

In the past year, he had gained a lot, but things were one after another, and he hadn't had time to count them.

Brilliance flashed.

It was rare to count the current inventory.

Rich!

Unprecedentedly rich.

The Dragon-species aura in the Yellow Sand River was easier to find than imagined, and more than imagined.

36 strips of Dragon-species aura, enough to let the Ying Dragon's favor rise to the 10th layer next!

Yellow Sand was so rich in aura, what about the White Dragon King? That was the true inheritance that hadn't been broken.

"The upper limit of the Ying Dragon's favor layer is definitely higher than the Chuan Lord, maybe there will be a big transformation, if the third divine ability is sublimated to the second stage, maybe there will be great benefits—" Liang Qu pondered.

Heaven Pass Earth Axis was really easy to use.

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

Besides the Dragon-species aura, it belonged to the number of Heaven and Earth Long Qi. Speaking of which, with Liang Qu's current resources, he could sublimate the Chuan Lord's favor again.

Previously on the Lu Cang River, the Chuan Lord Emperor's favor sublimation was completed, up to the 17th layer, leaving 9 strips of sweet dew Long Qi, since then to the Northern Court, two prince mansions, earned 4 strips of top-grade Long Qi.

Among the 4 strips, one was given to Senior Brother Yang Xu, one was exchanged for Ran Ran Zhongshi in the Imperial Capital, Ran Ran Zhongshi's was directly given the Xuanhuang Qi exchanged for the Xuanhuang card, and a top-grade medicine.

But excluding the Long Qi that really existed in the Ze Cauldron, Liang Qu had another 5 Xuanhuang cards in the Northern Court battle, and Long Eying wife also had one, totaling 6 "to be exchanged".

Adding up to 18 strips of Heaven and Earth Long Qi, soon the Binghuo day would reach 19.

Unfortunately.

9 strips of sweet dew Long Qi had to be prepared for the Dragon People's promotion, otherwise Liang Qu would have exchanged them for lower-grade Long Qi with larger numbers.

Next was the Dew Seed bred by himself.

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

Dew Seed had many functions, also prolonging life, and could replace Long Qi to build divine abilities, but the output was slow, one grain per season in the past, after refining, two seasons per grain, six years equivalent to one wisp.

"When I have a thousand times the root sea, can I recover to one grain per season?"

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

Excluding the treasures in the Ze Cauldron.

9 unparalleled merits left, 39 big merits left, not enough to exchange for Xuanhuang cards.

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

The number of silver was relatively chaotic, Liang Qu's personal account and fief were mixed together, small money was not lacking, big money was not there, but there were quite a few debts, over 20 million.

"Don't know how Frog Gong is doing in the North Sea, if can't find materials, then have to buy from Qintian Bureau, the debt will be over 30 to 40 million—

This River God Festival, there should also be over a hundred degrees of favor, the winter one should also be on the process, one year maybe can save 2 points of governance, 20 years 60 points—

The river wind was vast, carrying a smell of sand and soil.

Liang Qu supported his knees and stood up.

The collection of benefits came to an end, it was time to 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, and return to Yixing to hold the River God Festival.

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

This location was in the middle section of Yuzhou, an area where the ground river was relatively serious. It couldn't be seen by the river, but if you went further, the whole Yellow Sand River was like floating on the surface, a long wall made of soil.

Sheepskin rafts floated up and down, occasionally carrying people across the river, which could be regarded as a major feature of the Yellow Sand River. You couldn't see this kind of skin raft on the Huai River.

No other reason.

The Yellow Sand water was surging, the rapids were fierce, ordinary small wooden 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 after tanning was extremely tough, didn't break for decades, how to hit the waves could float, and key was light, could walk on the back.

Hence the saying "people take rafts downstream, rafts take people upstream."

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

The sheepskin raft of the Yellow Sand only had the hardship of making a living. Those with good technology were just looking at whether the age was old or not, because those with poor technology were directly rolled into the waves and fed to the fish.

It can be seen.

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

In late May, it was the grain-filling period of wheat, which was the critical moment to determine the yield. If there was any negligence, lack of water, the harvest in the field would be much worse.

Start here!

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

The old man with half-white beard and hair, frost stars on his temples, dark skin, carried a shoulder pole and passed by, dropped the empty bucket and talked, the accent was not heavy, it was the type Liang Qu could understand.

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

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

"It was far before, doesn't the imperial court have waterways now? 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, nothing, nothing, steamed buns are good, the freshly steamed ones are the best, sweet, old man, you have something?"

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

Just be careful not to go to some remote place, let people strip your clothes and sell them, but you came out to break through alone, must also be a martial artist, even if you are young, you have ability, don't be easily deceived."

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

"Say, is it asking for directions? You found the right person, in these ten miles and eight villages, 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 the words and sat down directly, pulled out the dry tobacco pipe from his waist, looking like he was very talkative, "What thing, just ask."

Liang Qu sat down on the yellow land, and pointed the dry tobacco for the old man with heart fire: "Qinghe Gong, do you recognize him?"

"Ho!" The old man was not surprised by the point of tobacco, just thought it was some martial artist's means, but was shocked to hear about Qinghe Gong, looking left and right, "You ask about the River God?"

"Is it also a River God?"

The old man widened his eyes: "Young man, what is also? Is there a second River God in the Yellow Sand River?"

"Maybe the Huai River God came to visit?"

"Hey, you young man, it's a loss that you came from Nanzhili, your words are really not afraid at all, gods and ghosts, can't talk nonsense."

"Fine, fine, you continue."

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

"Qinghe Gong, that has been there for thousands of years, since I was a child, I heard, Qinghe Gong, clear sand river, every year must be sacrificed, the harvest is good, have to kill sheep!"

Liang Qu automatically ignored the thousands of years.

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

The old man said a lot one after another, all about the River God manifesting.

"Just all manifesting, no anger?"

"Yes, how can there be no, gods also have tempers, remember when I was a child, one year the River God was angry, raised a big water to break the river embankment, the big girl was tied to the pillar, crying loudly, the county magistrate pulled hard and didn't let, young man, guess what?"

"What? The county magistrate came forward, that can still let people sacrifice?"

"Wrong! The county magistrate was knocked unconscious, the sixteen-year-old big girl was directly sunk into the river! A few times and there was no sound, hey, that was a pity, I didn't see a girl more beautiful than that girl from that time until now, she was thrown down and 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 is everywhere, the more remote, the more, local people can't seek help, just entrust to ghosts and gods.

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

Just pull an elderly person, what transparent coffin, corpse fisherman three fishing three not fishing, 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, what can't a demon king eat, want to eat people? And it's not the old turtle of Pengze, who likes to collect figures, if he saw it, he would probably be too lazy to pay attention.

"It won't be in the future." Liang Qu stood up and 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 county magistrate coming to take office? Oh, so young, the future is great, the 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 had disappeared without a trace, his peripheral vision turned, only to see the person jump.

Jumped into the river!

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

No one answered the old man, only the surging Yellow Sand River.

However, the next moment.

Big waves hit, hitting both banks, accompanied by the young man jumping into the river, the whole Yellow Sand River became even more surging, several zhang high river water rolled up yellow soil and fell back, tens of thousands of tons of mud and sand danced, 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 from the mountain.

It seemed that what jumped into the river just now 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 covered the dazzling sun, hanging upside down in the sky, the old man's pupils expanded sharply, his breathing stopped completely.

The long river obscured the dazzling sun, hanging upside down in the sky. The old man's pupils dilated sharply, and his breathing stopped completely.

The earth absorbed the river water, and 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 into the sky, flew high into the clouds, dived 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 whole sand river kept falling!

The fisherman opened his mouth wide.

The muffled sound shook endlessly, dispelling the accumulated clouds, the earth shook gently, the wheat fields shook out light waves, simply the Dragon King roaring, walking water, and getting angry at the bottom of the Yellow Sand River!

Mud and sand rose from the river bed, stones rolled and floated, straight to the east, countless small fish flicked their tails, swimming in panic, the steaming water mist reflected rainbows in the sun.

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 sky.

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

The roaring sound subsided, the river wind slowed down, as if the yellow dragon had walked away, rushed into the sea, the turbid 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 turbid, but flowing steadily eastward, without waves.

No terrifying waves crashing and swirling.

No thunder of waves colliding.

Everything was like an illusion, only the moist land testified.

"Ha—ha—"

What—what happened?

What happened?

The sheepskin raft floated up and down, the raft passenger looked around at the towering mud walls on both banks in surprise, breathing violently, not knowing where the bamboo pole drifted.

Suddenly.

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

The raft passenger was dumbfounded.

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

The old man ran on the field ridge, shouting loudly.
