Becoming a God from a Water Monkey

Chapter 501: For the Pillars
"A strange combination of circumstances!"

Su Guishan laughed out loud.

The Ghost Mother Cult knew that the Martial Saint was coming, so they must have calculated the distance he was traveling to give themselves ample time to attack.

Who would have thought that Liang Qu tricked the snake and caused Wu Sheng to encounter a group of snake monsters, which he captured and drove like cattle and horses.

The already extremely fast Liuguang Boat became even faster.

It saves a lot of effort.

"Fuck you, old bastard! You've been holding it in for so long, I think you're planning to take my Weng family's property!"

Weng Lijun hugged the floating wood, and even though the Martial Saint was approaching, he still had to yell at him.

"Look, you're in a hurry again!" Su Guishan said calmly, "Alright, stop being so pretentious. I'll ask you for a bottle of Di Rui Liquid some other day. For the next half year, I'll give you half more of the money for the medicinal materials and elixirs at the Hebo Institute!"

"One year!"

"Five months, love or not."

"Okay, okay, okay, half a year, half a year."

……

On the shore, it was cloudy and rainy, and the willows were swaying.

A scene of misty water town.

Xu Yuelong stood upright, feeling emotional as he witnessed the snake demons who had confronted him in the shallow water a few days ago, putting on bone-piercing locks like dogs and dragging the big ship.

The power of the Martial Saint is unfathomable.

The four snake monsters who were at their wits' end were captured!

What’s the difference between them and pigs and dogs?
He turned to look at Liang Qu and glared at him.

This kid.

The courage is getting bigger and bigger!
The red-stamped letter that day only mentioned the plan to lure out the Ghost Mother Sect's Grandmaster, and also mentioned asking Liang Qu for leave to deal with the snake demon's aftermath.

There is no mention of handling it this way!
It turns out that the person who comes to clean up the mess is the Martial Saint!
Liang Qu quickly lowered his head and hid in the queue.

Xu Yuelong sighed, asked the people behind him to tidy up their clothes, and stood aside with Wei Lin.

The hundred-foot-long snake demon was dragging a hundred-foot-long ship with boundless power. It did not dock but stayed on the surface of the river at a distance.

The pontoon was thrown down and connected to the shore.

"go!"

Su Guishan waved his hand and went ahead with Old Man Weng.

The prefect Jian Zhongyi was second, followed by Wei Lin and Xu Yuelong.

The floating bridge had limited load-bearing capacity, so the crowd moved slowly. Facing the four hundred-foot-long snake monsters at the bow, they were terrified.

Many people had seen this group of snake monsters a few days ago, confronting the two leaders on the river.

Why did you end up here?
Unlucky encounter?

Ran Zhongshi and others did not hide their gazes at all, jumping back and forth between the snake demon and Liang Qu.

Judging from the previous conversation, the capture of the snake demon was obviously Liang Qu's doing.

Liang Qu understood many eyes, kept his achievements and fame to himself, and walked onto the floating bridge to observe boldly.

The blue-gray chains imprisoned the snake demon, emitting a cool silver light in the rain.

There were three boats, the middle one had two tugs, and the other two had one wheel each.

One end of the chain was fixed to the keel, and the other end was shaped like a spring, with nine circles, piercing into the flesh and surrounding the three-meter spine below the snake's head, completely retracting the snake's head and preventing it from turning.

In order for the snake demon to turn, it needs to exert force from the three-meter spine downwards, which is obviously much more difficult.

In addition, there is a silver mark on the top of each snake's head, which causes a slight stinging sensation in the eyes when looking at it.

Liang Qu clearly remembered that before he transformed into a white ape to seduce the snake demon and rush into the waterway, the snake demon did not have this thing on its head.

Was it the Martial Saint who beat him?

In any case, the reconciliation issue has been resolved.

The two parties are unaware of each other, so reconciling the accounts requires a certain amount of coincidence.

And there was no way the four snake monsters in front of them could go back to see the dragon.

Double insurance.

Comfortable!
Eat as much as you want and get as much as you can!
Lightning flashed in the clouds.

On the deck, which was almost big enough for horses to run, maids lined up, holding huge umbrellas to shelter everyone from the rain.

The dripping rain gathered into a curtain of beads, rolling down the deck into the swamp.

Grandmaster, conversation with the Martial Saint.

Whether you are a prefect or a commander, you should look at your nose with your eyes and your heart with your nose, and stand straight and still.

Quiet and silent.

The King of Yue was surrounded by his ministers. He looked like a middle-aged man, tall, and dressed in a black robe with gold patterns. He was much younger than expected, with two hands, two legs, two eyes and one nose.

There's nothing different.

Liang Qu thought.

The rain water overflowed the soles of the shoes, slowly spread along the capillaries, and soaked the shoes and socks.

Not long after Su Guishan and Weng Lijun had fought, the King of Yue exchanged a few words of greeting and then asked his maid to take him to change clothes and rest.

Many leaders and commanders finally found an opportunity to show themselves.

"Your subordinate Wei Lin..."

"The Wei family kid? Not bad. How many days have you practiced the Lingri Tiangang Jue?"

"The third day."

"Well, at this age, you are better than your father!" "Your humble servant Xu Yuelong..."

"Are you... a member of the Xu family?"

"My father is Lord Guanying."

"Wenzhu, no wonder." The King of Yue showed some reminiscence, "You don't look much like your father, but you look 70% like Xu Gong when he was young."

"I only wish I had seven times the ability of my grandfather."

"Haha, black geese are calling, the sun is just rising, you should have higher ambitions!"

"You are……"

"My father..."

Liang Qu just acted as a background board and it was boring to listen to.

Starting from the time they were picked up, everyone introduced themselves one by one, just like a family reunion meeting, and they established relationships with everyone one by one.

Quite true.

The King of Yue did not become a Martial Saint suddenly. He was the Marquis of Weining before that. It would be strange that he did not know other nobles and their children.

Board.

The four snake monsters were as sad as if they had lost their parents.

Even the usually irritable blue viper lost its temper, and in order to relieve the soreness and itchiness from physical training, it would desperately hit the rocks and the ground to relieve the pain.

it's good now.

When the bone-piercing lock was applied, I could feel the severe pain in my spine all the time, and I could not feel the soreness or itchiness from body training at all.

They were also branded, and no one else needed to do anything. As soon as the Martial Saint had an idea, their brains would explode.

Even the gallbladder was removed.

If I had known this would happen, I would have gone back. At most I would have been skinned alive, which is worse than being treated like a dog.

Yellow Scale and Orange Scale looked at Red Scale with squinted eyes, trying to tell the other party if they had any ideas.

Chi Lin remained silent, allowing the rain to wash him away, mixed with the blood from his wounds, and flow into the swamp.

……

"This is what a man should do..."

On the deck, Xiang Fangsu looked at the back of King Yue from afar and sighed.

Four snake monsters, they say they will be dogs so they act like dogs.

The military officers of the fifth and sixth ranks were not even qualified to speak to him.

So majestic!

Seeing such a scene, Xiang Fangsu's curiosity about how Liang Qu tricked the snake demon faded a lot.

No matter how much you know, it is not as good as reaching a new level in martial arts.

"Don't be stunned!"

Xu Yuelong reminded.

The King of Yue has a group of old ministers behind him.

According to their ranks, it was now the turn of Liang Qu and others to speak.

Everyone had a serious look on their faces, lined up, and came forward one by one to pay their respects.

The old ministers came from all over the country, but there was no communication barrier and even their accents could hardly be distinguished.

Dashun originated in Nanzhili, so the official language was naturally Jianghuai dialect.

Liang Qu has an advantage in this regard, as his hometown is in Jianghuai. Unlike people in the Central Plains, Northwest China, and Southern Xinjiang, he needs to learn an extra language to communicate with others when traveling far away.

And for the civil servants who were able to pass the imperial examinations, learning a language was a piece of cake for them.

"Liang Qu... Did you come up with the Pinyin method?"

Liang Qu said respectfully: "It is you, my lord. What advice do you have for me?"

An old official stroked his beard and said with a smile, "It's not really teaching. The Sixth Prince borrowed your method. After half a year of practice, he was able to read and write. Now, after more than a year, he is no different from a student who has been in academy for three to five years. What a great method!"

Six princes?
Liang Qu raised his eyebrows.

The Sixth Prince is still in the process of enlightenment?
"Build bridges and ditches, so that the water will become the pillars of the future."

Another old minister spoke up.

"It is indeed my honor, but the success of the Pinyin method is inseparable from the help and correction of all the teachers in the academy."

Several old ministers nodded and said nothing more.

……

The port in front of the Hebo Prefecture Government Office.

Three light boats were moored.

The soldier put down the command flag and cautiously walked around the big snake. He looked back and found that there was no boat, which made him a little puzzled.

What about two boats going out in the morning?

Why didn’t you come back?
In the Yamen.

Many lower-level officials stood respectfully, waiting for the many dignitaries to disembark.

Li Shoufu was also among them. He raised his head and glanced, then suddenly froze.

Among the first few people who got off the Liuguang Boat, there was one who looked particularly familiar to him.

that is not……

Liang Qu’s uncle?
