Chapter 843
On the canal, white sails fluttered, boats came and went, the azure treasure ship split the waves, the oncoming waves were hit into scattered water foam, throwing cargo ships behind one after another.
Bang bang bang.
The otter sat in the lookout, brown fur fluttering in the wind, curiously fiddling with the monocular telescope in its hand, wiping the lens with its furry claws, knocking on the mast, suspecting it was some kind of fragile and uncooperative weapon.
This is a new gadget on the Nanzhili treasure ship. The crew inside was kind and gave it an old version that was phased out.
Fiddled for a long time.
The otter caught a glimpse of a crew member climbing into the lookout, pulling open a long tube and aiming it at his eyes. It thought for a moment, followed suit, and also pulled it open and put it in front of its eyes.
Woo!
Pupils dilated.
The furry mouth opened wide under the monocular lens.
Wiped the glass with the back of its claws, aimed the reflective lens at the sky, at the river, at the sun... well, a bit dazzling, after looking around, the lens fell to the bow, the enlarged version of the god half-lying on the ship's edge.
"What a big formation!"
Liang Qu pressed on the ship's edge, blowing the river wind, leaning out to look back at the soldiers standing in the back and on the left.
Escorting treasures, quality is better than quantity.
A total of five ships, four arranged in a rhombus, guarding the central treasure ship. On average, there were two Perfected Forms on one ship. His bestowed treasure ship undertook the escort task of the right wing. Heavenly Human Jiang Zongshi Ji Yu from Nanzhili sat in the center to ensure nothing went wrong.
Apart from the auction and the Imperial Capital's Great Court Meeting, he had never seen so many Grandmasters gathered together.
Comparing slightly, the other ships were full of tall soldiers.
Wearing armor, tall and sturdy, each holding a long spear standing on the deck, Hunting Tiger as the bottom line, half Wolf Smoke, individual Hunting Tigers.
Solemn and dignified.
Compared to this.
His own ship was quite loose, full of curious animals.
Two little river otters didn't know what conflict they had, perhaps uneven distribution of loot, pulling each other's necks, heads tilted high, hissing with threatening low growls, sumo-like stepping with feet, pushing each other.
The little Xiao Xiao Shenlong danced non-stop, cheering and encouraging, Wulong flicked its large furry tail, jumping left and right excitedly, stepping on the wooden boards.
That's right, Wulong also followed.
Going to the Imperial Capital this time, the time is not short. Except for the old giant clam which was not very convenient, the beaver family also took a long vacation and all followed out.
Said to come, it came.
The Great Da He Li grabbed a carrot, dragged its large flat tail and walked out of the cabin, looked up and found the otter, climbed the mast, sat in the lookout, shared fresh carrots, good brother otter ate meat, declined the carrot, and gestured to hand the monocular telescope to it.
Skeptical.
The monocular lens changed direction, from the bow to the center of the ship.
Inside the round tube.
Tea fragrance curled.
Long Eying sat with legs crossed, clothes fluttering, she put down the book, smiling lightly at the lookout.
The Great Da He Li patted its tail gently, groomed its hair, took a bite of the carrot, and turned the telescope to observe others.
Water birds stayed on the mast, Long Eying sipped flower tea, seemed to notice something, got up and returned to the cabin, then came out, holding a jacket in her hand.
"Autumn is here, the wind on the river is strong, Godmother, be careful not to catch a cold."
"I'm not like you, but I can't stand such a little river wind."
Xu Shi said it was unnecessary, but she put on the clothes.
Splitting waves and chasing waves.
The fleet marched toward the Imperial Capital in a mighty manner.
Jianghuai Great Ze.
Frog clan territory.
Fist inserted both fists into the ground, light flashed, sucking away the "firmness" of the ground.
Ink spread and covered in large areas. After waiting for a while, Fist waved both pincers, seriously shaping.
The two long whiskers beside pinched the ground flat like plasticine. Compared to Fist, the fat catfish seemed a bit "lazy."
Whoosh!
Water flow disturbed the water algae.
The fat catfish sighed, doing bitter work with its fins, its mind had long drifted away, drifted to the treasure ship.
Every time it thought of the little Xiao Xiao Shenlong being useless, no fish needed, so it could follow the god to the Imperial Capital, while it had to stay in the Frog clan to do work because of its outstanding talent, high knowledge, and extraordinary speed, having to work for the Frog King and other big frogs, it felt the world was cold.
A lucky minister!
Whiskers angrily hammered the ink ball.
Polished for half a day.
Fist, who finished work early, saw the sky was not early, and called the fat catfish.
Since the god's exhortation, the two beasts have been sharing the rain and dew, working for the Frog King for half a day and for other frogs for half a day, ensuring that both sides progress at the same time, and will not cause other projects to fail to be delivered because the Frog Wang Gong is difficult to build.
The two beasts cooperated. After half a year of tinkering, the Frog King's cave became more and more beautiful, having a bit of a palace look. Not counting some small projects, the caves of Big Fat and Second Fat were also nearing completion, becoming the first "major landing project" of Fist-Fat Heavy Industry.
After finishing the Frog Wang Gong, it was time to find Big Fat and Second Fat.
The two beasts returned to the cave to say goodbye.
The Frog King slept as usual.
Unlike the heroic upward-facing posture in the past, with its belly like a mountain and snoring like thunder, at this time the Frog King lay on the ground, the whole big frog curled into a ball, its skin color was much dimmer, its head buried under its frog feet, without half a snoring sound, making the fish suspect whether it was asleep or not.
The fat catfish was a bit tangled, not knowing whether to go up and say hello, a ball-shaped black shadow fell from the sky, falling on the fish head.
"Shh!"
The fat catfish's whiskers hurt, and then it saw the old toad punch three times, sticking to its face and shushing loudly.
"The Great King is hibernating, don't disturb it!"
Hibernating?
Demon King hibernating?
The fat catfish was greatly surprised. It had known the Frog King for many years, and had never heard of it needing to hibernate?
Besides, isn't it just autumn?
Is the red carpet laid late?
Not long after.
Big Fat and Second Fat heard the news and rushed over, hitting two caves from nearby, guarding seriously. Many frogs in the Frog clan sat in all directions. They were usually honest, but now they were much more serious.
The fat catfish opened its big mouth.
Arranging the guards, the old toad was proud: "When the Great King wakes up, it will definitely be able to lead our clan to a higher level!"
So-called hibernation, is it actually cultivation?
The fat catfish suddenly realized, looked at the Frog King who was motionless like a stubborn stone in the cave, and showed envy.
Both are frogs, how come the Frog King makes progress while sleeping?
"Frog King 'hibernating'?"
On the treasure ship, Liang Qu learned the news and was secretly surprised.
He often heard that senior brothers like Hu Qi and Xiang Zhangsong had progress in cultivation, opening one or two orifices in a year. Last year, Cao Shixiong Hu entered Wolf Smoke, and Cao Shixiong Xiang said he would also enter this year.
And when it came to Perfected Form, like Su Guishan and Weng Lijun, they were Grandmasters and Great Grandmasters when they met, and they were still Grandmasters and Great Grandmasters a few years later.
Listening to the old toad, it was obvious that the Frog King would have a relatively large growth.
Demon King, equivalent to Yaolong Martial Saint, making a big progress once, it is estimated to be rarer than Hunting Tiger entering Perfected Form.
"Did the Sea Yaksha's treasure give the final push?"
Early November.
Leaves drifted and fell, the weather turned from cool to cold, and the cold wind was chilling.
Wealthy families burned coal stoves early, and old people carrying charcoal could be seen everywhere on the street.
Sailing for more than ten days, the fleet did not make any supplies, and arrived at Jishui Pool in the Imperial Capital without surprise or danger.
The news of the treasure was secret, and no one knew. If someone wanted to rob, they had to prepare at least eight Perfected Forms.
It was quite difficult to gather this number in a short time.
And almost when they arrived in Cangzhou, the imperial court had three more Grandmasters to meet them, making it even more difficult.
Hunting Tigers disembarked and lined up, dismissing unrelated people.
With Xu Wenzhu and Yang Dongxiong, treasure handover was not Liang Qu's turn.
Went ashore.
He applied for the exchange of two Xuanhuang Badges for the first time, and at the same time wanted to open the Wangyue Tower practice room for three months.
