Chapter 277: Don’t be lenient!
The moonlight was dim, and the water reflected the orange light of the burning flames.
Liangqu had been in the water for a long time, and the kerosene-soaked linen was almost burnt dry, charred into crisp pieces and stuck to the red firewood, crackling.
Chen Jiechang's arms were sore, he changed one hand to hold the torch, and with the other hand he reached into his pocket, grabbed a handful of peanuts from it, and handed them to Li Libo and Aliang.
Li Libo reached out to take it, and was able to wipe off the mud left on the peanut shell.
He pinched one, rubbed the skin and threw it into his mouth. It was rich in fat, sweet and delicious, and tasted good.
"Spring peanuts will take a few days to ripen, right? Where did you get them?"
Peanuts are divided into spring and summer. Spring peanuts are usually ripe in mid-August every year, but now it's half a month away.
"Aunt Zhen gave it to me at noon. She said that the weather was hot this year and some seedlings in the field had turned yellow early. She pulled out two bunches and sent the first batch to my house to try."
"Hey, you are taking bribes. Hurry up and give me everything in your pocket, or I will go to the Sanfashi to sue you."
"Nonsense!" Chen Jiechang cursed and turned to look at Aliang, "Why doesn't Aliang eat?"
Aliang looked sad: "Mr. Liang has been down for so long, why hasn't he come up yet?"
Li Libo chewed peanuts and said vaguely.
"Martial masters have long breaths, unlike us. Not to mention your brother Shui, I can hold my breath in the water for half a quarter of an hour. Besides, Brother Shui may not be near us. He may swim two or three miles away to find some water monster."
"Two or three miles?"
Aliang stared at the dark and surging water around him, and couldn't help but leave the edge of the boat and shrink in the center of the boat.
He thought Liangqu was nearby, but he heard what Chen Jiechang said and swam out early?
What if the water monster came back to kill us? Aren't we surrounded?
"Why are you panicking?"
Li Libo laughed when he saw this. Before he finished speaking, there was a loud bang in the distance, like a thunder in the water.
The nearby lakes trembled together, and the boats drifted quietly on both sides.
What the hell was going on?
He looked at Chen Jiechang.
"East?"
"North-east."
"Let's go and have a look!"
Li Libo threw away the peanut shells, burst out all his strength, and rowed hard.
The whole boat jumped out of the water with a whoosh. Before it had rowed a mile, the surrounding waters were actually set off by huge waves!
The waves surged and Aliang slipped out without standing firmly, and almost fell into the water. Fortunately, Chen Jiechang grabbed him.
Li Libo's feet were rooted and he rowed hard, but he was barely level with the waves and could not move forward at all.
The whole swamp shook so violently that it even reminded him of the shaking sheets when drying quilts this morning!
"What's going on?"
Underwater.
Liang Qu landed lightly and ran forward a few steps while holding back the feeling of suffocation.
The snake stood up straight and froze for a moment. A straight blood line emerged along the skull, and the pain of a rupture swept through the whole body.
The desire to survive, which was pressed to the limit, rebounded from the bottom, allowing it to overcome its fear, straighten its body and twist wildly. The blood line continued to spread, and the dark red blood escaped from the narrow gap. All the scales opened because of the pain, scraping against the rocks, leaving fine scratches.
The rocks flew, and the whole snake was more than three feet long when fully unfolded. As a snake, it was much longer than the four-clawed beasts such as the red beast, at least ten feet!
It struggled like a long whip and whipped wildly under the water. The water flow it brought was as violent as a knife, but when it hit Liang Qu, it all turned into a breeze.
However, after struggling, it had no intention of fighting back, just like an earthworm scalded by boiling water, rolling on instinct.
Liang Qu knew very well that his shot must have cut open the skull and hit the snake's brain, so it should be dead.
At this time, struggling is just like a centipede, dead but not stiff.
If the martial arts realm is higher, it can be shot to kill the life force, without causing any waves.
Thinking of this, Liang Qu clenched Fu Bo, and heroic spirit suddenly emerged.
The strength of the snake's breath is similar to that of the red beast, and it is also in the category of barely entering the realm of the great spirit, but no matter how poor it is at the level of the great spirit, it is still a great spirit!
The strength of its blood and qi is equivalent to that of a wolf smoke martial artist!
In other words, he used the afterglow of the dragon-slaying to kill a wolf smoke martial artist with one shot!
He gained his first great achievement - the Qinglong Spear style!
Great success is far better than small success. It is no longer a rigid move, but has its own understanding, with more powerful play, and the power is multiplied several times!
Expansion!
Unprecedented expansion!
While enjoying it, a barge broke into Liang Qu's perception circle and stopped at the edge, blocked by the wind and waves, unable to move forward.
Liang Qu came back to his senses from the afterglow and floated to the surface along the waves. In an instant, fresh air flowed through his lungs and penetrated his whole body, dispelling fatigue.
Water breathing allows him to breathe through the surface of his body, similar to catfish and eels, but like people breathing through their mouths, he still can't breathe if he exercises too vigorously.
Chen Jiechang on the water saw Liang Qu by the boat and pulled him up.
When Liang Qu sat down, the three of them gathered together and asked questions at once.
"What's the situation?"
"What happened?"
"Did they fight?"
"It's resolved."
Liang Qu took a breath, took out a piece of silk cloth from the water drain baffle, and wiped the water stains on the gun blade.
The black gold gun tip flashed with a cold light, and it was sharper.
The spirit weapon is good. The more he uses it, the more blood and qi are repeatedly infused, and it will grow with it.
Resolved?
The three of them stared at each other, and Li Libo pointed at the surging waves.
"What's the situation with this wave?"
"Have you ever killed a chicken? Have you ever caught a water snake? If you chop off its head, its body can still jump around. It's similar to that."
Everyone suddenly realized.
"Strange, it's so noisy."
Chen Jiechang held up the torch, and occasionally a dark green long tail could be seen swinging out of the water.
Aliang was surprised and happy: "Can I fish with confidence in the future?"
Liang Qu nodded: "Well, the Binghuo day will end soon, and it will be quiet soon. There won't be much danger."
The martial artist has to leave his hometown and go to a more prosperous city after he becomes rich, just to gain a better future.
The same is true for spirits. Shallow water cannot raise a real dragon.
The instinct of life evolution will make them move closer to more prosperous deep water areas.
Only under various complex conditions, such as Binghuo, molting, and pregnancy, will they run to the shore to seek a more stable environment.
The waves were surging and hit the hull one after another. Li Libo dropped the anchor and stabilized the boat.
A quarter of an hour later, the waves around were slightly calm.
Liang Qu calmed down and observed Ze Ding.
Last time he searched the mountain to subdue the demon, he was the first to be favored by the Lord of Chuan. Does beheading the snake this time count as "slaying the dragon"?
Unfortunately, until the movement in the water disappeared, Ze Ding was silent.
Not very good.
It seems that this "slaying the dragon" is too crude.
Liang Qu no longer struggled and reentered the water. He lit up his golden eyes and found the water monster buried in the mud and sand.
The dark green snake completely collapsed in the water, twitching twice from time to time.
When he came to the snake's head, the pupils still reacted, trembling slightly, revealing deep resentment and fear.
It's useless.
To deal with the enemy, you must be soft-handed.
Liang Qu chopped off the snake's head with a shot, and let the fat catfish and other beasts drag the rest of the snake to the shore.
The soldiers patrolling the curfew saw the big snake coming ashore, and then saw Liang Qu, the number one "tyrant" in Yixing Town, coming ashore. How dare they think of interrogating, and hurried away.
"The matter is settled, go back to accompany your father. A broken hand needs someone to take care of it. Libo and Jiechang can help take care of it. Remember to help deal with the aftermath tomorrow."
At the pier, Liang Qu asked Aliang to go back early.
If an ordinary person is frightened like this, he will definitely get seriously ill. It's good that he can hold on until now. There is no problem leaving the rest to Li Libo and Chen Jiechang.
"Thank you, Mr. Liang."
"Don't worry."
"Leave it to us!"
As for Liang Qu.
Go back to sleep.
