Chapter 798

Boom, boom, boom, dong, dong, dong!

The little otters played and sang, striking the chime bells; the joyful and funny tune was very festive.

On the Dragon Lingxiao, the brown mouse and blue cat ran and chased, from the courtyard to the bedroom, from the bedroom to the kitchen, from the chair to the wooden frame.

The brown mouse threw things as it ran, porcelain plates falling like flowing water; the blue cat was terrified, its round face turning pale, braking and spinning in circles, frantically catching them until the last plate was caught, the tense music stopped abruptly, and the blue cat held the mountain of porcelain plates, letting out a heavy sigh of relief.

Bang!

The brown mouse kicked the blue cat's butt hard.

The little otter immediately threw away the drumstick, pinched its throat, and looked up to scream.

"Awoo!!!"

On the screen, the blue cat jumped in pain, and the mountain of porcelain plates in its hands all flew up.

Pitter-patter.

Fragments splashed.

Everything turned to nothing!

"Blue Cat! You're causing trouble again!"

The little Shenlong rubbed its throat, pretending to be majestic; on the screen, the master appeared, pressing the blue cat's tail with a broom.

Wen Wen Shi Yun hugged Wulong's dog head and laughed wantonly.

No one in the ice house spoke or interrupted; the senior brothers and sisters all walked out of their rooms unknowingly, sitting cross-legged on the velvet carpet, focused; even outside the ice house, a circle of little Mermaids surrounded it, lying on the ice surface to watch.

Liang Qu hugged Long Eying, seeing her happy, his sense of achievement exploded!

What is called suitable for all ages!

It was simply the finishing touch of the underwater New Year, a great perfection!

Xu Zishuai stared intently, leaning his head over.

"Junior Brother, how did you think of this?"

"Can't Dragon Lingxiao change into official uniforms?" Liang Qu was very proud, "Official uniforms have spirit beasts on the front; Dragon Lingxiao controls the color, making the spirit beasts move like the real thing. I thought of shadow puppetry, and combining the two, this came out."

"I saw you stuff a stack of paper in the back?"

"I drew it."

Liang Qu pulled another stack of colored paper from the box and distributed it to everyone.

Everyone received it and flipped through it simply, one by one, quite like a child's comic book.

Dragon Lingxiao is a semi-spirit weapon, having its own vague consciousness; infusing it with Qi and blood makes it connected to one's heart, enough for "real-time rendering."

It doesn't need Liang Qu to draw dozens of pictures like real animation, nor does it need every picture to have a full background; even after letting Dragon Lingxiao remember it, he could directly replace it with the word "cat."

One episode takes half a cup of tea, easily done within a hundred sheets.

With the Hunting Tiger realm and control ability, Liang Qu drew very easily, and coloring was also simple.

First draw a few samples, then find an apprentice in a calligraphy and painting shop; the cost per episode can be controlled to under fifteen taels, and not just coloring; giving a few episodes of picture books and then proposing ideas and themes, the shopkeeper himself will imitate and create.

For today's "surprise."

Liang Qu prepared a total of fifty episodes, spending over seven hundred taels of silver, about three hours of substantial content.

It doesn't sound like much, but the characteristics of the blue cat and brown mouse are that they never get tired of watching; after watching one round, put it on again, no need to worry about getting bored within half a month.

One episode finished.

Everyone was still unsatisfied.

Genius!

In every aspect!

Liang Qu could always give people a novel and strong impact in unexpected places!

No matter how wonderful the drama or shadow puppetry, after today, they all lost their luster, completely incomparable!

Not a word was spoken, but there was no need to spend effort to understand; even children like Wen Wen Shi Yun who hadn't entered the school could watch with relish!

So refreshing!

The fast-paced music made the little otters slightly tired.

The little beavers stepped up to take over.

The two sides of water beasts rotated; another episode came, the previous one was for the courtyard commotion, the second episode should fit the festive atmosphere, changing to a firecracker war, the blue cat and brown mouse throwing bamboo firecrackers at each other.

The tense music sounded again.

House Steward Zhang originally planned to leave to arrange dinner, but seeing this, he couldn't help but stop his steps.

Anyway, it's not long.

Watch another one?

Jiangchuan County.

"Yuxuan, what's going on?"

Quan Linghan swam through the market, accidentally discovering that many of his clansmen had run to the Ice Crystal Palace next door, surrounding it densely, and some even stuck to the roof.

Quan Yuxuan looked over: "It seems to be a shadow puppet show; many little Mermaids went over to watch the fun. I just heard Sister Min say she went to find her kid, and he hasn't come back either."

"Shadow puppetry?"

Quan Linghan was puzzled.

Jiangchuan County is divided into two parts, water and land; merchant ships come and go on the island, and occasionally acrobats come to perform; he is not unfamiliar with shadow puppetry, but there are at least two or three hundred Mermaids outside the Ice Crystal Palace.

"A shadow puppet show, is it that attractive to Mermaids?"

"Master Liang made it, it must be different, right?" Quan Yuxuan guessed.

"Let's go, let's take a look!"

Dragon Lingxiao played silently, the blue cat and brown mouse ran non-stop.

The little otters and little beavers surrounded their small round table, gnawing on bones and radishes.

Wen Wen Shi Yun ate rice, his eyes never leaving the screen for a moment.

In his future life, today's New Year will definitely be the most impressive and unique one for Wen Wen Shi Yun!

"Make way, make way! Dinner is served, dinner is served!"

The little Shenlong held porcelain plates with its claws, served the steaming dishes to the center of the dining table, and then leaned into Liang Qu's ear to speak.

"County Magistrate Quan?"

The little Shenlong shook its head: "He said to talk after the boss finishes eating, no rush."

"Is he outside?"

"Waiting for my reply."

"No need to wait, just go over."

Liang Qu put down his chopsticks and said excuse me.

Outside the slide.

Smoke curled, the Prince's mansion chefs on the treasure boat were busy, the Third Prince turned around and continued to serve dishes.

Liang Qu saw Quan Linghan outside the ice island at a glance: "County Magistrate Quan, not eating New Year's Eve dinner during the New Year, saying there is something to discuss, is there something wrong with the Ice Crystal Palace?"

"No, no, since we agreed, how could there be any reason to go back on it." Quan Linghan waved his hands repeatedly, "It's just why did Master Liang come out himself?"

"I was worried that County Magistrate Quan had something important and missed the time."

"That really disturbed Master Liang's elegance." Quan Linghan looked embarrassed, and it wasn't good to waste time with too much small talk, pointing to the blue cat and brown mouse in the ice house, "What is Master Liang performing with Dragon Lingxiao?"

"Blue Cat and Brown Mouse."

"Cough, can you perform other things?"

"Naturally, as long as there are comic books; Clan Leader Quan is a Mermaid, you should know the characteristics of Dragon Lingxiao better than me, right?"

"No, no, no." Quan Linghan didn't know how to organize his words for a moment, "Master Liang, what I mean is, can you specifically use a Dragon Lingxiao, put it on the island, and let others come to watch..."

"Make money?"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Quite a business mind, huh.

Quan Linghan's business sense was unexpectedly sharp.

Sold Mermaid silk?

It can indeed be used to open a big cinema with Dragon Lingxiao.

Jiangchuan Grand Theater.

Combined with the unique geographical identity and political significance, maybe when the Holy Emperor is free, he might come to the south of the Yangtze River to take a look!

It's just...

"Is there Dragon Lingxiao in Jiangchuan County?" Liang Qu was curious, "Dragon Lingxiao needs Mermaid colored scales; can it only be made by a large tribe of at least five thousand Mermaids?"

Mermaids have colored scales on their lower abdomens, like a peacock opening its screen; the size, brightness, and beauty of the colored scales are the Mermaid's "beauty value."

Therefore, they shed scales every year; colored scales don't shed, and once damaged, they cannot recover for a long time. The part used to make Dragon Lingxiao is precisely these colored scales.

Furthermore, once the colored scales are cut, the spirituality will pass with time, so they must be collected all at once; the production conditions are very harsh, five thousand is completely the limit value. In Jiangchuan County, not counting the newly born little Mermaids, the number of adult Mermaids is just over three thousand, missing the amount of a whole or even two tribes.

"There really isn't one right now, but maybe after the New Year."

Liang Qu reacted very quickly.

"Clan Leader Quan found a Mermaid tribe?"

"To tell you the truth, there are indeed traces; currently, a Mermaid tribe of over 1,800 people is living in seclusion in the western region of the Huai-Jiang Great Marsh! I have already sent people to negotiate, and there is hope of moving to Jiangchuan!"
