Chapter 97: Small Success in Martial Arts, Mud in the Water

Jianghuai marshes.

The fat catfish swims freely in the water, and the pleasure of the water flowing past its side is extremely refreshing, like soaring in the sky.

All big fish cannot swim faster than it. It shuttles through the water like a black water lightning, and groups of fish flee in panic.

The fat catfish flicked its long tail and rushed to the side of a grass carp weighing more than ten kilograms in the blink of an eye.

The huge momentum scared the grass carp and turned to flee. Just after turning the corner, the fat catfish appeared in front of it again, grinning, showing a pair of sharp teeth, and pretending to bite.

After turning dozens of times in a row, the grass carp was exhausted and could no longer swim, floating in the water.

After teasing it for a while, the grass carp still did not react much.

The fat catfish felt bored, flicked its tail, and blew it away with great force.

The grass carp rushed straight out of the water, bringing a series of crystal water splashes in the sun, and flew far away.

With a bang.

The grass carp smashed into the fishing boat.

The fisherman on the boat was so scared that he almost jumped into the water to escape. When he looked back, he found that a big grass carp had appeared on the boat. It was alive and its gill cover was moving, but it seemed to have no strength at all. It was motionless and did not struggle. It seemed to have come to the boat voluntarily, waiting for its fate of being caught and taken back. The fisherman, who had not caught any fish for most of the day, looked at the empty river surface. He thought for a moment and suddenly knelt down at the bow of the boat and kowtowed. "Thank you for the gift of the river god!" The fat catfish under the water didn't understand what was going on. The long-bearded catfish scratched his forehead and thought it was very fun. He went into the water again and knocked several big fish onto the boat in a row. Bang, bang, bang. The big fish was forced to fly out of the water and kept falling on the boat board, making a bang. It was the most pleasant sound the fisherman had ever heard in his life. Miracle! A real miracle! Every time he caught a fish, the fisherman knelt down and bowed, his expression was extremely excited, almost pious.

"The river god appeared, the river god really appeared!"

It was the seventh day of the first lunar month.

The apprentices were still on spring break and would not return until tomorrow. Only Liang Qu and Hu Qi were left on the martial arts field.

The sound of wooden sticks hitting each other continued, and the sticks turned into afterimages.

About half a minute later, Liang Qu's blood and qi dissipated, and he supported the ground with a short stick in his hand, panting.

Hu Qi rubbed his wrist, and his heart was in turmoil.

He let go a lot, and his offensive was not intensive, but he did not disrupt Liang Qu's rhythm at all.

His blood and qi were not consumed after the rhythm was disrupted, but were consumed bit by bit from the beginning to the end.

How long has Junior Brother been exposed to the power method, half a month?

Half a month, a power method is refined into instinct, reaching a small success, and not disrupted by the rhythm?

This is too exaggerated. It would take at least two or three months for an ordinary person to learn it. But Hu Qi watched Liang Qu gradually improve from being clumsy to being skilled. Especially after the first few days, he seemed to have suddenly mastered the trick and improved particularly quickly.

One is one, two is two.

This thing can't be faked.

It's not just the strength method, but also the fighting method. As long as Liang Qu can control his emotional impulses during the battle, he can fight well.

The ninth disciple of the master is incredible.

Whether crossing the river or being crossed, he is a dragon seed.

Hu Qi thought of Liang Qu's fate and felt emotional. Then he inexplicably thought of the goal set by Master Yang at the New Year's Eve dinner.

Junior Brother Xiang has been pointed at by the sword. I'm afraid it will be his turn next year.

Hu Qi was not unhappy. It was a good thing that his junior brother was powerful.

A single tree can't make a forest. Junior Brother is also a man of affection. When he becomes more capable, he will be helpful to all disciples.

It's easy to be an official if you have someone in the court. Even a three-year-old child understands this truth.

Liang Qu was panting heavily while holding a stick, still feeling tired, and sat down on the ground without feeling dirty.

"I can't do it anymore, Senior Brother. I have no strength. Let's stop here today."

"There is still a lot of time left, so why don't you practice? When the apprentices come back tomorrow, there won't be such a quiet environment as now. Although you have a good fate, you must not be lazy. The road is walked step by step."

Liang Qu smiled: "To be honest, Senior Brother Hu, I plan to try to break the meat barrier this afternoon."

Hu Qi stared: "So fast, didn't you say it would take another half a month at the New Year's Eve dinner?"

"Yes, but I caught another treasure fish yesterday, and I insisted on taking a medicinal bath every day. I spent dozens of silver, and the progress was much faster than I thought."

Liang Qu's self-righteousness made Hu Qi silent. After a while, he said dryly: "Then I will allow you half a day off."

"Haha, thank you Senior Brother Hu, I'm leaving first, and I'll bring you a good fish when I come back."

Liang Qu was energetic again, turned over and patted the dust off his butt and left.

In fact, he did not want to break through the barrier. The original half-month expectation was based on the conditions of taking a medicinal bath and eating treasure fish. It was impossible to advance by half after all the operations.

Liang Qu really wanted to be promoted.

It was Ze Ling.

The two beasts had been helping to find the big guys in recent days, and finally got something this morning.

Liang Qu had a hunch that after Ze Ling's promotion, the changes brought about must be huge, and the physical fitness will be leaps and bounds.

By the way, breaking through the meat barrier is a natural thing.

It is not considered to be deceiving Senior Brother Hu.

After two quarters of an hour, Liang Qu had already come to the surface of the water with a black sail boat.

After a rest, he summoned the three beasts.

Fat catfish and Budong floated to the surface one after another, followed by Fist.

Fist is getting bigger and bigger, and it is not appropriate to lie on Budong's head.

"Nothing happened these two days?"

The fat catfish thought of the fishermen who knelt down two days ago, and the behavior of many fishermen passing by that area of ​​water after that, and kneeling down every time they passed by, it shook its whiskers and shook its head firmly.

Nothing happened.

The fishermen were too weird and knelt down to the air.

Liang Qu nodded. He was afraid that the two beasts would forget themselves after evolution, especially the fat catfish, which was the most stupid. If someone saw it by accident, it would have a bad impact.

It wouldn't be a big trouble. There were many strange things underwater, but Liang Qu always thought that it was better to have less trouble than more.

He sat by the boat with relief: "I have thought about it several times in the past two days. Since you two have evolved, it is not appropriate to give you such childish names, so I decided to change your names. The original names will be your nicknames."

Change names?

The two beasts didn't understand why. They had never compared them. They didn't think there was anything wrong with their names, but they didn't refuse.

What the gods gave was good!

"Don't move. From now on, your name will be Tiemushan! Fat catfish, from now on, your name will be Xiongyajiang! No, Ah Fei, these two will be your nicknames from now on!"

Liang Qu was very pleased.

He spent many days thinking about the new name, which not only fits the characteristics of the two beasts, but also looks domineering.

Tiemushan, Fierce Fang General?

The two beasts felt powerful.

It seems better than their original names?

In any case, it's better to show that they are happy.

The two beasts splashed water and circled around the black-sailed boat. The fists that had nothing to do with them on the side banged their claws to help them.

Liang Qu felt that his name was unique.

"Let's go to the place where you two found the big guy. Whether it can be done today depends on whether you found the right one! Today is the day to enjoy the delicious food and drink the spicy food!"

Liang Qu took Fubo and Qinglang, jumped into the water, and first pulled out a hemp rope from his waist, tied it to Abu, and let Abu lead him.

Now unless Liang Qu manipulates the water flow to propel himself, his natural swimming speed will not be as fast as that of the immobile.

But manipulating the water flow requires a lot of physical strength, so it is better to let the immobile lead.

This guy is big and strong, so fierce that it's no big deal for a crocodile to drag a boat.

Ah Fei saw this and leaned his head over to try to show off.

Liang Qu thought that two-wheel drive might work, but it still didn't work after the experiment.

Ah Fei's skin was too smooth, and the rope would slide down by itself when tied to it. Unless a special saddle is built in the future and put on its mouth, it won't be able to hang on.

He wrapped the rope around his wrist, and clamped it with his "fist". He couldn't move and struggled forward, dragging a man and a crab forward quickly, at a very fast speed, and Ah Fei followed closely behind.

Soon the water depth exceeded 50 meters, and Liang Qu didn't feel any discomfort.

Integrating into the water monkey Ze Ling not only greatly reduced his oxygen consumption underwater, but also made him not afraid of pressure.

The intensity he could feel was about the same as an ordinary person diving to about ten meters.

Not to mention the two beasts, it was a piece of cake.

But as he continued to go deeper, strange places appeared.

There were more and more water plants around, which were very lush and could reach a person's waist. It was like walking in a lush meadow.

He picked one to taste, and it was just ordinary water plants, which was really strange.

The mud below was even softer, and it felt like stepping into a swamp.

There were all kinds of strange areas under the water, which were no worse than on land.

Liang Qu was dragged to a muddy area with no water plants around.

He vaguely felt in his perception circle that there was a huge guy hiding under the mud.
