Chapter 184: Mountain Anchor

reunion?

Liang Qu opened his clothes and placed two flowers close to his body.

"What party is Brother Ran talking about?"

Ran Zhongshi closed the treasure house door and turned the twist dial to lock it.

"We have a gathering of our own people once a month to communicate and exchange feelings."

Once a month?

Liang Qu's heart moved slightly.

Hebo Institute arrived in Pingyang County in March. Even if it was not held in the rush that month, there should be one in April, but he had no idea.

in this case……

You really have to reflect your own value, otherwise no one will take you to play.

After thinking for a moment, Liang Qu accepted Ran Zhongshi's invitation. There was nothing important that day anyway, so it would not be a bad thing to make more connections.

"Okay, I will send someone to look for you then."

"Excuse me, Brother Ran."

As we disembarked along the deck, the chain of the ship made a rattling sound as the water rippled and tightened.

Liang Qu suddenly looked back at Ran Zhongshi, pointed at the boat lock and asked, "Brother Ran, what kind of anchor is used on this boat?"

"Anchor? A four-clawed iron anchor. Why did Brother Liang say this?"

Ran Zhongshi didn't understand what he meant, and for some reason he suddenly mentioned the anchor.

"I have an anchor. Its grip is ten times stronger than that of four-claw iron. It is easy to hook into the ground. There is no need to dispatch hook-fixers. It is cast in one piece. There is enough fire in the furnace. An ordinary blacksmith can cast it. If you can donate it, can you get it from the river? The reward in exchange?”

"Oh?" Ran Zhongshi raised his eyebrows, "If that's the case, of course it exists, but this thing must be as useful as Brother Liang said."

Ran Zhongshi can come to the river mooring place, so he naturally has a certain understanding of ships and the importance of anchors.

Don't board a boat if you have a road ahead. Sailing on a boat or riding a horse is dangerous.

The anchor on the ship is like the tail of a horse. It seems insignificant, but in fact it is indispensable.

But the four-claw iron anchor has experienced countless years. Can Liang Qu really come up with a better anchor?

In view of the lessons learned from Pinyin, Ran Zhongshi did not refute in person.

"It definitely works! I can draw it now. Brother Ran will send someone to cast it and try it out. If it's quick, the result will be available tomorrow."

Liang Qu also suddenly thought that he had never paid attention to this aspect before.

Even he himself has used stones so far, which is what most fishermen do.

A hole is drilled in the middle of the stone, and then the stone is tied with a cable. Whenever the boat needs to stop, the stone is thrown into the water or onto the shore.

This thing is called "Ikari".

It’s not that there are no iron anchors, but with such a big piece of iron, what’s wrong with forging it to make an anchor?

Iron anchors are not within the scope of ordinary people's consideration. If they are built today, they will be gone tomorrow.

Only merchant ships and large ships will have four-claw iron anchors. Just like its name, the shape is four grappling hooks.

But the grappling hook is useless. It doesn't mean that the hook can be firmly hooked to the ground as soon as it falls into the water. It is more likely that it will only catch a shallow layer and then be dragged away.

So there are "fixing hookers" who specialize in diving into the water to hook hooks.

Ran Zhongshi couldn't figure it out without fixing the hook's anchor, but that didn't stop him from asking someone to get paper and pen and ask Liang Qu to draw the anchor he was talking about.

A bit of iron won't cost you a few bucks, but the people below will try it anyway.

Liang Qu took the pen and paper and drew a rounded mountain character.

The left and right sides are raised high, the top is like two raised spatulas, and the bottom is an expanded plane.

Because the shape is really simple, just one side is straightened, and a few strokes are enough to show the whole picture, and any blacksmith can understand it.

The shape alone is very novel. I have never seen such an anchor before, but Ran Zhongshi frowned when he saw it.

"Two hooks? Brother Liang, are you joking? Two hooks are stronger and better than four hooks?"

This thing is too counter-intuitive to be convincing.

He raised his head and noticed something was wrong.

"Brother Liang...what happened?"

Ran Zhongshi suddenly felt a sense of loneliness from Liang Qu, as if... he had been away from home for many years.

"nothing."

Liang Qu straightened his back and laughed.

He wouldn't say that he suddenly wanted to lie on the sofa and watch an episode of Tom and Jerry, pointing to the drawings.

"Brother Ran, I won't boast about what happened on the ship in Haikou. Wouldn't it be better? Brother Ran can find someone to try it out. It won't take much trouble. I recommend going to the shop named Lu in the county to build an anchor. It's quick and good."

Ran Zhongshi's attention was still on Liang Qu.

“Don’t make rash advances when practicing martial arts. Going too far will never be enough. Relaxation and restraint will lead to the great road.

Brother Liang has such a level of cultivation at such a young age. He is already much better than ordinary people. You should rest more on weekdays. Do you want me to take a sick leave for you? "

"No need to be like this, I just have a lot of thoughts, and Brother Lao Ran is concerned."

Liang Qu shook his head, jumped to the shore, and waved goodbye to Ran Zhongshi.

"I just want to get some credit and make more money. It only distracts my mind and adds to my depression."

Liang Qu sighed, walked back to the martial arts school along the streets full of shouts, and rode home.

Push the door and walk in, beyond the shadow wall.

The sunlight penetrated the window paper and revealed a figure. Confirming that the old monk was at home, Liang Qu walked into the quiet room with peace of mind.

I have to say that having Master Zhenxiang in charge of my family really makes me feel safe, even if I live with a beautiful woman, I won’t change.

After closing the door and window, Liang Qu sat on the futon and opened the jade wooden box.

The lotus blooms, and red and blue lights fill the room.

Burning heat hit my face, but there was a refreshing coolness in the center of the flower.

"Growing up in underwater volcanoes, it possesses both hot and cold, the dual nature of fire and water. It's similar but different. It's really extraordinary."

Liang Qu looked happy.

The reason for using two great merits to choose the two-life flower is, on the one hand, because this flower grows in water, can contribute a lot of water essence, and has the effect of being immune to all poisons and improving the power.

Even if the water treasure plant has a certain premium, it is still worth it for him.

Second, and the most important point, this flower helps to condense the dragon and tiger golden body!

In addition to practicing hard day and night to condense the golden body, you can also rely on heavenly materials and earthly treasures to accelerate your practice!

For the ordinary golden body to condense, what is needed is nothing more than heavenly materials and earthly treasures that can consolidate the foundation, strengthen the body, and activate vitality.

The dragon and tiger golden body is slightly different, and the dragon and tiger qi contained in it are similar but different, and mysterious.

If you choose heavenly materials and earthly treasures, in addition to containing vitality, they also need to have similar but different characteristics!

The two-life flower meets cold and hot, and it is obviously a very suitable treasure plant!

Although Liang Qu first changed the two-life flower and then learned the "Dragon and Tiger Subduing Diamond Sutra".

But he read the whole set of skills before exchanging the great merit.

On the way back to Pingyang County from Fengbu County, Liang Qu had already remembered the details of condensing the dragon and tiger golden body clearly.

It is so hard to find similar but different things. Ordinary people will never see it once in their lifetime, let alone high-value similar but different things.

Seeing this rare treasure on the great merit exchange book, Liang Qu exchanged it without hesitation.

Relying on this precious plant, he will definitely save several months of hard work.

With better luck, he may be able to condense the dragon and tiger golden body in one breath and become a dragon and tiger!

It is really good to lean against the big tree to enjoy the shade.

The old monk happened to be at home.

Vajra is indestructible, exterminate evil and demons!

Here I come!

When he thought of this, Liang Qu was excited.

He immediately sat cross-legged and moved his qi and blood according to the "Vajra Sutra of Subduing Dragons and Subduing Tigers", cleansed his flesh and blood, and silently recited the Dragon Subduing Mantra and the Tiger Subduing Sutra.

In the west wing, the old monk stopped turning the rosary.
