Chapter 584

~8 min read 1,438 words

Zhao Xueyuan buzzed his lips, but made no sound.

Dead silence.

The orange-red light shone on his face, Zhao Hongyuan sat on the straw pile, looking at the sunset outside the fence, but didn't blame much.

"Time and fate, who could have thought? Who could have thought?"

Zheng Xiang stared at the moldy wall with moss, his eyes godless.

Three years.

Just three years.

*Clang! *

The prison door opened wide.

Judge Tang Yuyou scanned the circle, his brows tightly frowned.

"Who let you close together?"

"My lord, please calm down, there are too many people caught, and for a while, it was a mess, so they were all pressed together..."

"Separate them all!"

"Yes!"

Zhao Hongyuan, who had just lain down, was moved and carried out again.

After a while.

Candlelight was dim.

Tang Yuyou sat on the upper hand and opened the register.

"Name, place of origin, age."

……

"My lord, look."

A Wu found a box from the dark grid according to Zhao Hongyuan's disclosure, opened it, and a few crimson pills were embedded in it.

"Fetal Pearl Pill?"

Liang Qu picked up one, the size of a little finger's nail.

It didn't smell as bad as imagined, most of it was medicinal fragrance, mixed with a faint fishy smell in the fragrance.

But trying it with the "Nasal Consciousness Method" was fragrant and smelly, and the smell was greater than the fragrance.

The disadvantages outweigh the advantages.

Zhao Hongyuan divided one Fetal Pearl Pill into ten parts, one person ate three parts, a total of six people, count it, five pills left, five people ate.

"What about the supporting medicine?"

"Here."

A Ji handed out another box.

The two kinds of pills smelled together, the fragrance and the smell were equal, and even the fragrance was greater than the smell, which was about the same as what Zhao Xueyuan said.

Put the pills back.

"Pack it up, don't miss it."

"Yes!"

Let the constables handle the tail, collect evidence.

Liang Qu walked out of the Zhao residence.

The onlookers retreated together, separating a road.

……

Back to the Xu family courtyard.

Liang Qu first kept his promise and gave extra rewards, sending Liu Shouping and Zheng Rusheng five spirit items each.

The two thanked him a thousand times and left.

Blood profit!

Originally, he came to the Great Hunt to join in the fun, but he didn't expect to accidentally hug a big thigh. Five spirit items, a few hundred taels must be there!

Afterwards, Liang Qu asked Long Yao and Long Li to grind ink and spread paper, and wrote two letters himself.

One to Xu Yuelong in Pingyang Prefecture, stating the arrest of the Zhao family in Huangzhou, and asking about the follow-up handling.

If it is appropriate, maybe he can get another great merit.

A mere Zhao Hongyuan is not a big fish.

A wolf smoke martial artist came, and he could clean them all up with some care, but Liang Qu always felt that this old boy still had goods in his stomach.

As long as the value is enough, he is the first merit.

The Ghost Mother Sect is a big treasure in the Jianghuai Great Marsh, and there are many places to dig.

Another letter was sent to Ningjiang Prefecture, written to the Prince of Yue, informing him of his victory in the Huangzhou Great Hunt.

People live in the world, opportunities all depend on their own struggle.

Reaching the realm of a Martial Saint, in fact, nothing is missing, or rather, what is missing is not easily given by others.

But reporting the progress after a period of time and providing emotional value to the master is obviously not difficult.

Seeing the "stock" he is optimistic about and even invested in rising, as long as it is a person, there will be a sense of accomplishment.

Finished writing.

Liang Qu called A Wu to help him send it out: "There is nothing to do later, you go back and find my eldest senior brother."

Watching the personal guards leave.

Liang Qu finally breathed a sigh of relief, lying on the lounge chair to relax.

Three nights and two days of the Great Hunt, followed by busy catching people, he didn't have time to rest well.

"Did anyone look for me in the afternoon?"

"Yes, Elder Cao Shixiong came to look for you once, left a stack of silver notes, saying it was what you won from betting earlier."

Long Yao took out a thick stack of silver notes from her arms.

Count it.

Ninety thousand taels!

It was exactly the result of the battle between the Tail Wei Huo Hu and the Sea Hai Yecha, with odds of one to thirty, betting three thousand!

So far, the number of deposits has surged to over 310,000, and it is all liquid cash!

Liang Qu waved the silver notes and asked with a smile: "Did you bet?"

Long Li scratched her cheek, embarrassed: "Bet on the Elder's first place, earned more than the Elder."

Liang Qu was surprised: "How much?"

Long Yao's face was slightly red, quite excited, counting with her fingers: "The Elder's teacher's wife bet one thousand, Sister Eying bet one thousand, the two of us bet a little over five hundred, earned back 160,000!"

"It's a pity my reins weren't used, missing two maids."

Long Eying opened the curtain and entered the room, her tone slightly regretful.

"What reins?"

Long Eying pointed to the bookshelf with her finger.

Liang Qu then discovered that there were many long boxes on the bookshelf, with golden patterns on the packaging, looking very exquisite.

Open it, it's all scrolls of paintings, drawn quite well, with a bit of charm, can tell who it is, and when it was drawn.

"Did you borrow money from Eying to buy it?" Liang Qu laughed, "Not a small amount of money, right?"

Long Yao opened her five fingers.

"So much?"

Liang Qu was stunned.

How much money did this earn.

*Tsk tsk. *

No wonder the three families of the Great Hunt have to hold it every year, never tired of it.

A good business that makes money without losing.

Unfortunately, there is no portrait right in this world.

"By the way, someone from the government office also looked for the Elder."

"People from the government office?" Liang Qu raised his head, "What are you looking for me for?"

Red gold-stamped invitation handed over.

"Sent an invitation, saying that the Department Magistrate is hosting a banquet at Qixia Building three days later, inviting the excellent contestants of this year's Great Hunt to be guests. Are you going, my lord?"

Liang Qu opened the invitation and thought about it.

"Go, help me add a word."

Long Yao took the invitation, picked up the brush on the table, and wrote "Respectfully accompany the last seat".

……

The same.

"Go or not?"

Huo Hongyuan flipped through the invitation.

This year's top ten of the Great Hunt were somewhat unworthy of the name, so in addition to the top ten, "excellent" contestants were specially invited.

Sea Hai Yecha and Tail Wei Huo Hu were naturally on the list.

"Go!" Zhu Zongwang didn't hesitate, "Find a chance to chat."

Night was quiet.

Liang Qu took a hot bath, faded his fatigue, resisted the urge to take treasure, and went straight to a certain courtyard.

The whole courtyard was dead silent.

Yang Xu and others were all gathered here, each on a meditation cushion, almost no communication, even if there was, they spoke carefully, as if afraid of disturbing the people in the room.

The soundproofing of the quiet room must not be bad, but promotion is a big event, which inevitably makes people worry too much.

Liang Qu integrated into the atmosphere and asked in a low voice: "How long has Master been in seclusion?"

Xu Zishuai turned his head: "Started during the day on the 20th, just one day, there is a wait."

"I don't know if Master can make it to the birthday banquet at the end of the month."

"Ten days?" Liang Qu estimated according to Long Yanrui's time, "A bit tight, right?"

"Hope."

"Why not let Lord Xu's birthday banquet be postponed? Move to November?" Xu Zishuai joked.

What are you thinking? The date of the invitation is fixed, someone specifically asked for leave to visit, how can it be late?"

"Junior Brother just came back, very tired, no need to accompany here, the first place reward is generous, hurry back to digest, early Heavenly Bridge." Yu Dun said, "We sit here and worry in vain."

"Alright."
