Upgrading His Ride
Fan Xinglai left.
Liang Qu ran to the stable to chop hay, fed Red Mountain, and stroked its neck to dispel the estrangement he had felt after not seeing it for half a month.
"So strong."
Red Mountain's coat was like a blazing flame, glossy and smooth, with smooth muscle lines when he lowered his head, and his mane fell naturally.
Liang Qu took out the Azure Wolf from his waist, cut his finger, squeezed out a little blood, smeared it evenly, and then drew a "water" character with three fingers together.
A red light flashed, and fresh blood seeped into the skin.
a long time.
No Mental Link appeared within the Sea of Consciousness.
Still not working.
Unable to govern.
Liang Qu wasn't angry; he had long been mentally prepared for failure.
"I wonder if this meritorious service will allow me to obtain a Grade-Raising Pill for Red Mountain. I'll give it a try then."
The Dragon Blood Horse has six ranks, symbolizing status and honor.
Da Shun has almost perfected the breeding of this horse.
Appearance, speed, endurance, stability.
All four aspects are exceptional.
They are completely unavailable; even if they appeared on the market, no one would dare to buy them.
But the most amazing thing is the promotion of the Dragon Blood Horse.
Before reaching the first-grade Dragon Blood Horse, only one corresponding Grade-Raising Pill is needed to advance the Dragon Blood Horse to the next grade! As a fifth-grade Dragon Blood Horse, Red Mountain moves like the wind, carrying hundreds of pounds of weight as if it were nothing.
Even though Liang Qu was a martial arts Galloping Horse Martial Master, it was still a very good means of transportation, and it would attract a lot of attention when going out on the street.
Unfortunately, although Liang Qu has made many contributions, it's probably unlikely he'll receive Grade Four Pill pill; it depends on how generous the higher-ups are.
After feeding the animals, Aunt Zhang rushed through the wooden gate to cook.
"Boss! It's been half a month since I last saw you!"
"Yes, it's been about two weeks. Is everything alright at home?"
"Thanks to the master, everything is fine. What would you like to eat, master? I'll make it right away."
"Get it done quickly, I have things to do this morning."
"Become!"
Aunt Zhang went into the kitchen to busy herself, adding water and starting the fire.
Just as he finished preparing the congee and side dishes, Fan Xinglai rushed back and stood at the kitchen door, panting and gesturing.
"It's nothing serious. There's a big donkey in that big shed, in its prime. The hay in the trough is very fresh. There's an old woman and a child acting out a scene in the yard, laughing quite happily. I think everything should be fine."
Liang Qu nodded. "Thank you for your trouble. Please sit down and eat."
"I'll just do a quick clean. The stables haven't been swept yet. If it's late, Grandpa Red Mountain will be unhappy. If he's unhappy, he'll kick the horse railings. He's already broken several of them, and I've had to fix them all."
Fan Xinglai two meat buns and hurried back to the backyard, munching on them while shoveling horse manure, his appetite unaffected.
Liang Qu smiled and turned to greet the Old Monk.
After a two-week absence, once everything was settled, he arrived at the pond.
The Otter family has settled in and become helpers for the beaver family, helping to carry Wooden Head Shang An from underwater and do simple tasks such as peeling bark from trees.
The two Little Beaver then further processed the Wooden Head, making various kinds of boat planks, which were then fixed to the Dragon Bone by Mrs. Beaver.
The patriarch, the Great Beaver, sat on a small stone stool, looking down at the blueprints in his hands, occasionally looking up to direct the two Little Beaver to do their work. Beside his feet was a thick stack of partial drawings.
The blueprints were obtained by Liang Qu from Liu Quanfu before he left Yi Xing Town. The overall design was complete, but the Great Beaver was illiterate and did not know the specific dimensions. However, as Beaver Clan, having the blueprints was enough, and the dimensions were not a problem for it at all. The entire construction process was carried out in an orderly manner.
Liang Qu felt that he should use his merits from the River Conservancy Office to exchange for a real, usable shipbuilding blueprint, instead of an empty shell like Liu Quanfu's, which could only be looked at but not used, and would sink in the water in no time.
It's not about sending Toad.
The Toad's boat will eventually sink in the water, so it doesn't matter whether it's usable or not.
He wanted to upgrade his car.
The small boats sent by the River Conservancy Office were just over seven meters long, much larger than ordinary Black Awning Boat, but they were still not enough for him.
It needs to be at least ten meters high, with two compartments and one or two masts.
However, larger ships require crew members to operate them, raising and lowering the sails; otherwise, they can only navigate by Water Control.
It's fine if no one's around, but if someone is there...
Liang Qu hadn't had time to address this issue, so he made do with small boats. But now, the crew problem seems to have been solved.
He looked at the Otter carrying the Wooden Head; they were muscular, strong, and had four limbs, making them very agile, no less so than humans.
It's Spirit Monster that a spirit would be a crew member, but it's much better than him showing off his Water Control abilities.
It's hard to imagine that outsiders would find this River Earl of the River Conservancy Office Bureau both mysterious and impressive.
Noticing Liang Qu approaching, the Great Beaver rolled up the blueprints in its hand, tucked them under its arm, and shuffled over.
Halfway there, it suddenly remembered something, lay down by the pond, scooped up water to wash its face, then used its paws to smooth the hair on its head that was sticking up, before finally meeting Liang Qu.
The Great Beaver unfolded the blueprints and pointed at them with its paws.
The Old Giant Clam acted as the translator.
The report mainly covered the shipbuilding progress, indicating that everything was proceeding smoothly and successfully.
The report is complete, and a Da Pang head emerges from the underground river.
The Fat Catfish looked around and saw the Liang Qu by the pool. It swooped down and stretched most of its body onto the bank.
Water splashes.
Liang Qu blocked the water in mid-air, and the water fell back into the pond.
The Great Beaver was soaked to the bone. It ran to the water's edge and found its neatly groomed, fluffy fur now wet and clinging to its body. The beaver looked utterly listless, its fat belly drooping and covering its feet.
The Fat Catfish opened its mouth and spat out several Water Ganoderma.
All of them are freshly picked Treasure Plant.
With the appearance of the Fat Catfish, the Cannot Move Mirage Worm, the Fist, and the Round Head followed closely behind. Even the Scarhead arrived with several of his men, all spitting out the Treasure Plant they had collected.
In a short time, all sorts of Treasure Plant came ashore.
Water Ganoderma, Water Caltrop, Silver Pearl Grass, Water Cogongrass Rhizome.
There are four kinds in total, nine items, all of them Fat Catfish. Cannot Move the harvest we've accumulated over the past two weeks.
Not many, mainly because Liang Qu gave an order before setting off not to go too far, to prevent accidents from happening on the Bing Fire Day.
Unexpectedly, this delayed the progress of collecting 10,000 Marsh Essence.
I wonder how much Marsh Essence so many Treasure Plant can contribute...
Liang Qu picked up a Water Ganoderma, soaked it in the pond to wash it, and then swallowed it.
The Qilin Great Pill and the Wither-Bloom Twin Lotus should not be taken at the same time because both are too potent.
A single Water Ganoderma contains at most a few dozen drops of Marsh Essence, which pales in comparison to Twin Lotus.
Even if we eat everything right now, it probably won't amount to much.
[Marsh Essence +34]
[Marsh Essence +46]
[Marsh Essence +27]
[Marsh Essence +41]
He devoured all nine Treasure Plant.
The total number of essences has reached 8,310, still 1,700 short of the round number 10,000.
Liang Qu turned his gaze to the Old Giant Clam.
After spending so much time together, the Old Giant Clam's pearls must have held quite a bit more, right? I emptied out a bunch of pearls before; I wonder if the absorption rate will be higher? "Old Bei!"
The Old Giant Clam shivered.
"What... what are you doing?"
[Marsh Essence + 306]
Liang Qu stretched out his hand, and the Old Giant Clam immediately closed its shell.
Living under someone else's roof, I'm filled with bitter tears.
I can't stand you, you little brat, bullying this thousand-year-old Old Giant Clam! A peaceful living environment isn't so easy to come by.
"Hey!" Liang Qu patted the shell of the Old Giant Clam: "I'll bring you some good algae another day."
We're still short 1,400.
Not too much, not too little; relying on the Old Giant Clam, the precious Treasure Fish, and the Treasure Plant, we should see results within ten days.
Liang Qu has decided to go into seclusion!
