Chapter 469

June 2nd.

The weather was sunny, and the scorching summer sun made people feel not cool even if they stood on the shore with their upper bodies half-stripped.

Ten green boats, four wide-bellied square boats, plus two wide boats, a total of sixteen large ships appeared on the river.

The light blue flags of the River Patrol Office fluttered in the wind.

More than ten miles away.

The snake head was half-sunk and half-floating, and two vertical pupils flashed with ghostly light.

The Great Spirit Monster peeking in secret recognized the flag logo, turned and swam away, and came to a deserted place.

Except for a deep blue giant snake constantly rolling and rubbing against the rocks, a group of giant snakes of different colors coiled into a ball, bathing in the sun.

The scout snake spat out its long tongue.

Learning that the River Patrol Office was back, the giant snake's spirit lifted, and it stretched its neck to look at the red scales standing in the middle.

"Red Scales, the people from the River Patrol Office are back!"

"Waited for almost half a month!"

The yellow-scaled giant snake asked: "What should we do now?"

Several giant snakes rushed from Xiangyi County to Pingyang County without stopping, swimming under the water, stealing conversations from fishermen to obtain information, and were shocked to hear the bad news.

The River Patrol Office had a collective action and left early, and the Liang Water-man they were looking for was not there at all!

Where the River Patrol Office went, they didn't know at all.

Knowing it was useless anyway; they couldn't chase after them and ask them to betray their companions in front of everyone.

Humans attach great importance to etiquette, righteousness, and shame; even if they were paid enough, it was unlikely they would betray their companions in public.

No way, they could only wait.

Wait for the Liang-surnamed Water-man.

Waiting, ten days passed by.

The yellow scales that went back to the Dragon Palace to report the news were back, but the people from the River Patrol Office still had no shadow.

Fortunately.

Yellow Scales brought back good news.

Red Scales' plan and arrangements were highly recognized by those above.

Give them some soft things to eat first, and solve it low-key if you can solve it low-key.

Relying on this plan, Red Scales became the nominal leader of several giant snakes in one leap, gaining great autonomy!

Must do this thing well and catch the whereabouts of the Bai Yuan!

Thinking of the importance the Flood Dragon Lord attached to it and the resource allocation power given, Red Scales knew that catching the Bai Yuan was no small matter.

If handled properly, he might be able to replace a certain Lord in the future, and then he would be a Great Demon with infinite scenery!

Hearing the snakes asking for suggestions, Red Scales thought: "Don't be impatient, there are many experts on the boat, if we approach rashly, it is easy for people to discover.

I heard before that there is a River God Festival to be held nearby, and the main sacrificer is the Liang-surnamed Water-man, every year.

It is already June now, and there are only a few days left, so we will definitely be able to meet. Since we want to treat guests to dinner, we might as well..."

Liang Qu knew nothing about a group of giant snakes discussing giving him benefits.

The fleet docked, and the gate of the River Patrol Office government office opened wide.

A floating bridge was built.

Materials were transported to the shore batch by batch, and many treasures were moved into the government office, sealed, counted, and stored.

These were all great merits and could not be wrong.

Liang Qu brought his things, jumped off the bow, and suddenly looked at the Liu family disciples who came down from the boat next to him.

The Liu family disciple who was addicted to that thing was terminally ill and usually had to be tied to an iron bed for all actions.

Unexpectedly, after watching the phenomenon of heaven and earth, he was completely recovered, and could already untie the chains, walk, sit, and lie down, and talk to people normally, without any special abnormality.

"Is it really effective?"

"Who knows, there are as many problems as there are people in the world, maybe it will recur one day." Xiang Fang Su carried his backpack, "Ashui, what are you doing when you go home now?"

"Do you have any arrangements? Where are you going to play?"

"No arrangements, I originally wanted to go to the mountain in the next county to climb, I heard that there is a special Epiphyllum garden on Mount Taicang in the next county, it's the day of blooming, but it's too hot today, I don't want to move."

"If you don't go play now, you might not have time for more than a month later, the plum rain in mid-June is coming, it will be drizzling every day, and after the plum rain, the weather will be even hotter."

"That's true."

Xiang Fang Su scratched his temples and fell into entanglement.

Liang Qu shook his head: "I'm busy with the River God Festival on June 6th, I won't join in the fun with you, I'm leaving!"

"Huh? River God Festival!" Xiang Fang Su's spirit lifted, and he stopped Liang Qu, "Almost forgot, last year you promised me that you would hold a River God Festival in winter, waited for half a year, summer is here, and I haven't seen a hair!"

Liang Qu's face straightened.

"That's because I held the sacrifice beautifully in the middle of last year, the River God was very satisfied, he didn't appear for a whole year, so I didn't hold it in winter."

"What River God are you talking about! Isn't it all a Great Demon..."

Liang Qu's face changed suddenly, and he shouted sternly: "I am a native of Yixing! Even if you come from the Imperial Capital, how dare you be disrespectful to the River God?"

Xiang Fang Su was bluffed for a while, almost thinking that Liang Qu really believed this, just about to apologize, turned his head and caught a glimpse of Liang Qu's corner of the mouth that didn't hold up, realized he was cheated, and was furious.

"Get out, I just said, you haven't seen your family worship a shrine, stop talking, how about this year's?"

"Okay, come if you want, I'll be the main sacrificer, you be the sacrifice officiant, or something else." Liang Qu shrugged, "The one who organizes the River God Festival is a village elder in our Yixing Town, named Chen Zhaoan, you can go find him and let him arrange it for you."

Xiang Fang Su gave a thumbs up: "That's enough! Okay, I'll go find him after I go home!"

"Find what, find what? You don't call me if there's fun, right?"

Ke Wenbin rushed up from behind, wrapping his arms around the shoulders of the two.

"One million jin of old ice all delivered, Elder Long check it yourself. In addition, these two Ghost Mother Sect members, trouble Elder Long to look after them for the time being, be careful not to have accidents, we are going to support the battlefield!"

"Talking about the River God Festival, it's already been discussed, I'll be the sacrifice officiant, Ashui will be the main sacrificer, there's no share for you!"

"Good! Pingjiang, Pinghe, you take half the people and go with everyone!"

"Not necessarily." Liang Qu's eyes showed thought, "There is some left, the Great God Dance lacks a lead dancer..."

"Damn, boring!"

Ke Wenbin waved his hand and left.

Liang Qu laughed, carried his long spear, large bow, and box along the small road home, walked to the pier, and the villagers asked him well one after another.

"Master Liang!"

"Master Liang is back!"

"Master Liang, good morning!"

"Morning!"

Walking through the lively bluestone street, Liang Qu stepped into his home, a black dog head poked out from behind the door first, wagging its tail and pouncing on him.

"Whew! Finally back!"

Liang Qu grabbed the black dragon dog head, dragged it across the shadow wall by the flesh of its neck, saw the spacious courtyard, and let out a long breath.

It's comfortable at home!

"Proprietor!"

Chen Xiu moved a stool and sat under the eaves peeling broad beans, seeing Liang Qu back, stood up and greeted him,

the scarred face wearing a yellow robe held a broom to clean the courtyard, and bowed with his hands together, following the old monk to practice, it became more and more intelligent.

"Well, don't worry about me, you go busy yourself."

The man and the beast continued to work.

Liang Qu entered the bedroom to settle his things, returned to the courtyard, and greeted the two Great Grandmasters in the side rooms.

Su Guishan was as usual, leisurely, just not coming out to bask in the sun, it should be that the summer is too sunny.

The old monk's complexion was much better.

It seems that the old Prefect moving in is not just for rubbing experience.

Among three people, there must be my teacher.

Two Grandmasters discuss together, it will not be just one side benefiting.

Liang Qu is quite looking forward to the old monk proving the Arhat fruit position.

Once broken through, it is truly a sky-high thick leg!
