Chapter 432: Eavesdropping on the Situation
The Fat Catfish was mysterious, half-concealing, a pure riddle fish.
Its words only had one meaning: it was preparing to steal something big.
Liang Qu didn't know if it really had something, or if it was just confused itself, listening to the wind and rain. He thought about it, didn't go into detail, let the Fat Catfish exert its subjective initiative, and rode his horse to the south.
No rush to go home.
Yesterday he found out that Fan Zixuan, Yan Qingshan, and other river gods heard that their superiors were back and visited one after another. Today he was preparing to inspect the townships.
Can't always do nothing.
The Water-Transport Official has been promoted to a noble title, and the River-Lake Office pays a monthly salary of one hundred and sixty-eight taels of silver.
Just in time to find two people to run errands for him and buy gifts.
Red Mountain raised its four hooves, turned into a roaring fierce wind, galloped in all directions, and raised the leaves to spin.
At the same time.
A certain otter that was excited...
The flag of the foot shop that said "Eat full for eight copper coins, eat well for twelve copper coins" was flying, and the cut flag corners were dancing wildly.
At the pier, passersby stopped, surrounded into a human wall, whispering.
Outside the shop, the otter squatted on a small stool, holding a large wooden bowl, using chopsticks to fork out meat, brushing away the bright red chili on top, stuffing it into its mouth, eating until it was sweating profusely, and baring its sharp teeth.
A few little ones followed suit, grabbing chopsticks and inserting them into the iron pot, stirring, the rich meat fragrance wafting, completely ignoring the eyes of passersby.
The shopkeeper walked out of the house, brought a plate of processed offal and tendon meat, and slowly added it to the boiling pot full of bright red chili.
The boiling soup gradually stopped.
Someone couldn't help but point at the otter and whisper to the shopkeeper to ask what was going on.
The shopkeeper tilted the tray and said while pouring.
"I was preparing to close the stall at noon today, but I didn't know that the river otter raised by Master Liang came over, poured a bag of copper coins on the table, there were several hundred, and it pointed its claws at the stew pot!
I've been stewing this spicy pot for half a year, and I've seen many people at the pier, but I've never seen such a posture. I counted the copper coins on the table, a full 460 wen!
Heh, four coins of silver!
How generous!
Whose money isn't money?
Thinking of setting up a new pot."
Everyone was amazed.
The things raised by Master Liang are amazing!
The shopkeeper added: "Everyone don't worry, it's not the same pot as the one sold outside, this pot is for my own use."
"Shopkeeper is particular, you don't mind?"
"What's there to mind? Decades ago, my great-grandfather fled from the south and even snatched food from wild dogs!"
Everyone was in an uproar.
The otter only felt that the people around were strange, picked up the scalded offal, and ate meat in large mouthfuls.
Spicy! Spicy! Spicy!
Satisfying!
After eating this spicy stewed meat, I'll have strength, and then I'll go find Scarface for revenge!
Today I swear to wash away the shame!
"Master Liang is awesome, the things he raises are just as awesome, too clever!"
"I really want to touch it..."
"Be careful it bites your hand off, just stew it in the pot!"
A few outsiders were amazed.
"Big places are just different."
At the bottom of the water, the Fat Catfish was full of fish meat, its whole body warm, swimming and groping everywhere, finding an excellent position in the valley, lying in the water grass, shielding its aura, and stealing a glance at the hillside not far away.
This place is remote, the terrain is low, the water grass is lush, and it just happens to be able to observe any movement in the old toad's cave, great!
Everything is ready, now just waiting for the old toad to act!
"Croak~"
The Fat Catfish was startled.
A red-skinned little frog fell behind it at some point. It hurriedly flicked its tail to drive the other away, closed the water grass again, covered itself, confirmed that it hadn't attracted the attention of other frogs, and continued to lurk and observe.
Waiting...
Waiting until it was sleepy.
The Fat Catfish lowered its head, lay in the water grass, and wanted to doze off.
Don't know how much time passed, the Fat Catfish's eyes flickered with light.
It seemed like electric light was flickering.
The Fat Catfish jumped up like a carp, raised its head and looked.
A few arrow-shaped white sturgeons swam, pulling shuttle-like small boats behind them, shooting from afar, stretching out large swaths of white airflow, leaping across the valley like a flash, blocking the sunlight, and hovering above the frog tribe.
It's here!
The Fat Catfish was greatly encouraged.
It raised its head, looked around, and the entire bottom of the water was rippling with orange light. It had actually waited until evening!
Second Fatty's afternoon was a bit too late.
The shuttle sank, hanging below the white sturgeon.

A few tall Dragon People sat up from the shuttle, flipped into the water, their dragon silk floating without getting wet, combined with the skin like Han white jade, quite immortal.
A large frog held a mountain-shaped anchor, stepped forward to interrogate, a few croaks that were not very clear.
Only saw the Dragon People bow and worship, secretly took out two treasure fish from their wide sleeves, and stuffed them to the large frog.
The large frog looked around carefully, quietly stuffed them into its mouth, turned around and landed at the old toad's door, not daring to approach, only croaking twice from afar.
A crackling sound.
The vines shrank, revealing the cave entrance.
The old toad poked its head out, saw the Dragon People hovering in the distance, turned around and smashed the vines with a fist, covered the cave entrance again, and only then went out.
Passing by the interrogating large frog, the old toad suddenly stopped and scanned suspiciously.
The large frog looked at the sky with both eyes.
After a long while.
The old toad withdrew its gaze, took two steps forward, and just as the large frog relaxed, the old toad suddenly turned its head and hammered the large frog's belly.
Thud~
The large frog's belly trembled like water waves, two treasure fish were forced to spit out, the big fish fled in a panic, the old toad was quick-eyed and fast-handed, grabbed them, stuffed them into its own mouth, and the white pocket was bulging.
The large frog carried the anchor on its shoulder, rubbed its belly, and sat down weakly.
Croak~
The Elder's perception is too keen, every time it collects good fish, it can't escape the Elder's magic eyes.
The Dragon People in the sky were stunned.
A few young people whispered.
"Frog Elder... is always like this?"
The leader glared back: "It's not your turn to speak!"
"..."
The old toad kicked its legs and swam upstream.
The Fat Catfish crawled out of the grass, swam silently along the ground, stepped forward and patted the large frog on the shoulder to show comfort, did not take the opportunity to enter the cave to explore when the old toad left, but followed behind the old toad, pricking up its ears.
Finding out the old toad's family background is for better bargaining.
But right now, the transaction between the old toad and the Dragon People seems to have more direct benefits?
The Fat Catfish has always believed that it is much smarter than Round Head, and it is the most worthy of trust and the wisest among all the water beasts under the Heavenly God!
Prove it!
The Dragon People noticed the Fat Catfish's approach, but the way it was generous and even patted the large frog on the shoulder made them not pay much attention.
This place is the hinterland of the frog tribe, appearing so generously, it must be all their own people.
Not to mention that long energy is not very important to the demon tribe, otherwise the old toad wouldn't sell it easily.
The old toad swam in front.
"Frog Elder!"
The leader of the Dragon People bowed respectfully, facing the old toad, the pillar of the frog tribe, not daring to be disrespectful.
The old toad gave a light hmm, raised its head, but didn't make a sound, letting the two treasure fish struggle constantly in its white pocket.
The leader of the Dragon People understood, moved two large boxes out of the shuttle, and offered them respectfully.
"I hope the Frog Elder can tell us, where is the long energy this time? And are there any strange phenomena in heaven and earth?"
The old toad took the large wooden box, opened them one by one to check, confirmed that it was correct, put them away with satisfaction, knocked the two treasure fish in the pocket unconscious, and pointed to the south-east position.
"About 1650 to 1700 li, in the middle of the water valley on both sides, there will be strange phenomena, probably one of Sea Moon Tide or Immortal Island Above the Clouds, it will appear within half a month."
The leader of the Dragon People hurriedly wrote it down.
The treasure-hunting ability of the Multi-Treasure Toad is unique in the Great Marsh.
The leader asked humbly again.
"Frog Elder, how to subdue this long energy?"
Finding the energy is one thing, subduing the energy is another.
The old toad raised its head again, with its claws behind its back.
The Dragon leader had a toothache.
Obviously.
Telling the address is one price.
How to subdue the long energy is another price.
Fortunately, the Dragon People were not trading with the old toad for the first time, and another wooden box was moved out.
The old guy is stingy and petty, but he has integrity in business, unless the cargo requirements were not clearly stated when buying.
The old toad took the wooden box, opened it, and beamed with joy.
"Use ice! Old ice over two hundred years old! To be safe, three hundred years is best."
"Use ice?"
The leader looked bitter.
Not to mention old ice over two hundred years old, even ordinary ice is hard to find in this season.
Fortunately, there is still some time before the long energy appears.
Many young people in the tribe have been sent to the south bank to see if there is any way to get old ice of sufficient age from the human race.
On the other side, the Fat Catfish secretly recorded all the content.
It didn't know what long energy was.
But intuition told it that the three large boxes the Dragon People bought were not cheap goods.
