Chapter 69: The Disappearance of Master Yang

The Ze Ding glows with a faint blue light.

[Ding Master: Liang Qu]

[Refine Ze Ling: Water Monkey (White) (Fusion Degree: 70.6%)]

[Talent Skill: Water Leap]

[Water Essence: None]

[River Favor: 0.0001 (Huaijiang River)]

[Control Water Beasts: Taihua Crocodile, Six-whiskered Catfish, Stone Crab, Tianshui Centipede]

[Evaluation: The Water Monkey Ze Ling originates from the great Lord of Huaiwo, but is not fully activated and is a nobody worth mentioning]

River Favor, 0.0001!

The quality of this decimal point is comparable to a cut on Pinduoduo.

Liang Qu stared at this tiny 0.0001 and felt that it was hard-won.

I don’t know if it was because of the increase of 20 in fusion degree or because of favor, the final evaluation has changed, from weak and weak to not worth mentioning. It doesn’t sound like much, but it should be considered a small improvement... right?

I just don’t know which step in the sacrifice was recognized? Being the chief priest? Sacrifice to mountain ghosts? Lead thousands of people?

Or is it not a single step, but the whole process is completed to be favored?

In the future, if you want to be favored, you must perform sacrifices and be the main sacrifice?

There are too many doubts, and the whole sacrificial process is too complicated to be easily reproduced for control experiments.

Liang Qu has no way to judge, and can only make certain guesses.

Today's sacrifice, which is said to be a sacrifice to the river god, does not have a specific object in essence.

Just as Lin Songbao said, every year there are big monsters that appear and are seen by mortals.

This year it was the spherical black shadow toad brother, last year it was the big wide fish, and the year before that it was the water tiger fish. Afterwards, there were sacrifices, which was a sacrificial custom formed by the villagers out of fear.

There are too many big monsters, and the Jianghuai River is too big. The probability of seeing the same big monster in the same place is extremely small.

In this case, the river god of the Jianghuai River has the setting of being able to change itself.

In folklore, there are often stories about the Jianghuai River God incarnating as a graceful nobleman, falling in love with a common woman, punishing corrupt officials, unfilial descendants, and helping poor scholars.

Without a specific purpose, it is better to say that it is a sacrifice to the Jianghuai River itself.

Everyone hopes that offering livestock will make the Jianghuai River remember their hard work and bring good weather, good harvests, lush grass and fat fish in the next year.

So the sacrifice is actually to the Jianghuai River.

If you want to gain favor through sacrifice, this should be a necessary condition.

The scale of the sacrifice and your position in the sacrifice should be another necessary condition.

As the main priest, leading thousands of people to stand up and kneel, it is so magnificent that it is probably more majestic than the emperor's morning court.

If you become one of the thousands, it is estimated that there will be no such effect.

The quality of the sacrifice must also be taken into account. It does not have to be mountain spirits and ghosts, but at least three animals.

These three are probably the three key factors to gain favor.

If I were the chief priest, leading 100,000 people to sacrifice three great monsters of the Zhenxiang level, the favor would be at least 1, right?

Liang Qu didn't think that he could get the favor of the Jianghuai River by setting up two small broken tables, killing two chickens, and worshipping twice in a corner by himself. That was too worthless.

But you can try it. It doesn't cost money. You can get two chickens and an incense burner next time and sprinkle the chicken blood in the river.

Two and a half years old hens are the first choice.

Liang Qu stroked his chin and fell into deep thought. He walked out of the boat awning and stood at the bow to see what difference it made to get favor.

The wind was strong, and the oars hit the river, rolling up whirlpools.

Chen Jiechang felt strange. He was also a good fisherman, and sailing was no problem, but today rowing was particularly easy, as if the heaven and earth were all in the same force, and he slipped out with a light slide.

Because it was not his own boat, the weight was different, or he had been in the martial arts hall for two months and hadn't fished, so he was unfamiliar with it?

Wait,

Why did the boat slow down again?

Chen Jiechang rowed the oars and felt that his hand felt more and more strange, like rowing in paste. Fortunately, it returned to normal soon. It was neither easy nor strenuous, just like usual.

The river flow today is so strange, I have never seen it before. Did I cross an undercurrent?

I don't understand, I don't understand.

Liang Qu squatted at the bow and put down his water control ability.

The favor of 0.0001 is too little, and the innate skill of water leap cannot be evolved at all.

However, the water control ability has been slightly improved, from about 800 kilograms to 1,000 kilograms!

The physical consumption when controlling water has become less, and the flexibility is higher.

I don't know why, but controlling blood is still difficult. I can't even feel the blood flow in Chen Jiechang's body. So far, he can only control the blood of ordinary people.

I have to go back and read the two volumes of "Yu Guanxiu, Ming Youqian", which may have the answer.

In recent days, Liang Qu has been reading "Haomutang Miscellaneous Notes and Annotations" to increase his knowledge and experience, but he has ignored the macro description of the martial arts.

There is no way, "Yu Guanxiu, Ming Yougan" is too boring, far less vivid and interesting than "Haomutang Miscellaneous Notes and Annotations". The knowledge in it is told in the form of stories, and there are many unexpected twists, which is very refreshing to read.

The black-sailed boat passed through the winding river and passed by several passenger ships.

The Nanshi Bridge passed by his head, Liang Qu glanced and saw a pedestrian walking hurriedly across the bridge.

Hey, Zheng Xiang!

Liang Qu looked at him a few more times until the housekeeper of the Zhao Mansion turned into a corner and disappeared.

At the beginning, Zheng Xiang came to the door to accept him as the adopted son of Master Zhao, and that scene was still fresh in his memory.

She never expected to see him again today, and it was strange to say that Lin Di knew that he became Master Yang's disciple. The Zhao family had a much bigger business than a small fisherman's family, but Zheng Xiang didn't come to express anything.

Downplaying?

Liang Qu couldn't figure it out. He saw the awning boat crossing the river and could see the Yang Mansion in the distance, so he stopped thinking about it.

He no longer takes such little people into his eyes, they are not worth spending his time on.

Climbing up the rocks on both sides, Chen Jiechang stayed on the boat to watch the boat, while Liang Qu stepped forward to knock on the copper ring.

When the concierge saw that it was Liang Qu, he knew his identity. He called out to Master Ninth and opened the door.

Liang Qu was led by his servants through the courtyard and did not see Master Yang. He only saw Master Yang's wife, Mrs. Xu, sitting on the chair of the Grand Master with Nan Di's support.

Liang Qu hurriedly said hello: "Greetings to Master Madam."

Mrs. Xu leaned back lightly on the chair and said with a smile: "Why does Xiaojiu come to my place when you have time? I don't see anyone on weekdays, and I can't even find you to have a meal with you.

Among the nine boys, you and Xiaosi and Xiaowu are the prettier, but Xiaosi has a perverse temper and Xiaowu is cold. I just wanted you to come and accompany me, but you can't be seen all day long, alas. "

The relationship master is a beauty control.

Liang Qu felt ashamed: "I really have a lot of things to do, and I haven't found any time. I have to study, practice martial arts, and go out on a boat to fish. In the next few days, I will come to visit my master's wife every day when I have free time."

"Fishing? I don't have enough money, right? I'll tell you, old man Yang is just asking for money. What's the use of ten taels? Why are you afraid of having a bad temper? You are a very good boy. How can you lose your temper with a little money?" Nan Di, go get a piece of silver from my box."

Liang Qu felt embarrassed when he heard it from the front, and was surprised when he heard it from behind.

A piece of precious silver!

That's fifty taels of silver!

The master's wife was too generous.

But he's not here to ask for money.

Liang Qu quickly revealed all his intentions for coming, fearing that he would be late and be like accepting a red envelope from a relative.

After hearing this, Mrs. Xu waved: "Xiaojiu, come here."

Liang Qu obediently stood up and squatted in front of Mrs. Xu.

Mrs. Xu came forward and took a sniff: "No wonder it smells like medicine when you come in. You smell like blood. Are you injured?"

"Minor injuries don't matter."

Mrs. Xu directly opened Liang Qu's collar and frowned at the thick white turban: "Is this called a minor injury? Nan Di, don't go get the treasure. Go to my second box and get a bottle of flesh-tonifying pills."

"It's really not necessary, Master. I rolled out of a small quagmire. I have a few flesh wounds and it's just a minor quarrel. The villagers are waiting for me. They are quite anxious."

"It's useless to be anxious, Master You is not at home at all."
