Chapter 352 Arms Race
Good, good!
Liang Qu was overjoyed when he saw the manuscript.
There was no progress in deciphering the consciousness-only method for a long time. I didn't expect that I would go out and come back, and immediately go out to two more doors!
Eye consciousness, ear consciousness, nose consciousness, tongue consciousness, body consciousness.
The five senses have already joined the three senses!
The old monk clasped his hands together: "There is no fixed number for dismantling the exercises. Sometimes it is fast or sometimes it is slow. It all depends on the conditions."
"Thank you, Master, for your hard work!"
Liang Qu clutched the manuscript and wanted to read it on the spot, but suddenly he thought that Lin Songbao and Fan Xinglai were still waiting outside.
He was chatting seriously with the old monk. He suddenly forgot the time and hurriedly put away the manuscript to apologize.
"I have to come back in a hurry. There are friends waiting outside. I will ask the master for advice after I have settled in."
"It doesn't matter, the donor can do whatever he wants."
In the courtyard.
Fan Xinglai, dressed in mottled light and shadow, stood aside while Chishan stretched his head into the top of the jujube tree, trying to find the fruit.
Lin Songbao was sitting alone on the verandah seat, having not yet recovered from the shock of the novice monk Jiang Da.
As a native of Pingyang, Jiang Otter has seen a lot, and he can see them fighting several times every year, but the first time he saw the novice Otter in a yellow robe, it was like a knife scratching his butt...
Liang Qu held the manuscript and stepped down the stairs: "Come on, take Chishan back to the stable, give him a bath and brush him. It's cold, so remember to add hot water.
After washing, feed them, and in the box on your left are my replacement clothes, which I took to the backyard for Aunt Li to wash and dry."
"Okay, sir, don't worry, I've taken care of the horse raising and nothing will go wrong."
Fan Xinglai picked up the box and went back to the stable with Uncle Chishan.
"Song Bao, thank you for your help." Liang Qu returned to the hanging flower door and picked up the wooden box.
"A few steps to the left and right, what's the trouble?"
"Are you scared to see a river otter?"
"It's not shocking. It's just strange. I've never seen it before. Is it a monster? It's really big."
"To be honest, I'm just as curious. I've never seen them before. I have another litter at home. I guess they are enemies from outside."
Liang Qu remembered what Old Tridacna said: The River Otter family used grilled fish in exchange for immobility and fat catfish, and beat up the wild River Otter that had taken away their home.
Now I'm afraid that my enemies may come to my door.
Lin Songbao was impressed when he heard that Jiang Liuzi, a famous river otter, was not an ordinary person who dared to raise him.
"Oh, by the way, I told Libo and Jiechang before that after you pass the test, you can go to the river bank to get a river official position and come to help. Do you want to come?"
Liang Qu had dozens of officials from the Hebo River under his command, but he couldn't remember all their names, so he had to arrange a few suitable people among them.
Li Libo and Chen Jiechang have to take care of the martial arts gym, so they can't cover everything on weekdays, so it's not enough.
Let Lin Songbao go. Don't talk about the professional counterpart. The key person is smart and capable.
Lin Songbao left a deep impression on Liang Qu after the tasks of giving porridge and offering sacrifices. It would definitely be a lot easier for him to help.
"That's a great feeling! Brother Shui, if you say something, I'll definitely be happy to do it."
Lin Songbao's eyes lit up. He didn't expect that he would run an errand and get a good job in vain.
"Okay, in two days you can ask me for your waist card. Take it and go to the Hebo government office to find a bookkeeper named Li Shoufu to register and get your identity. There is something else. In the past two days, your family has been fishing.
Are there any crabs in the pen?"
"Yes, October and November are the good days to eat dumplings. Several big restaurants come to collect them every day. Brother Shui, do you want it?"
"Well, I'm going to make some. I only want big ones, more than seven taels for female crabs, and more than eight taels for male crabs."
"Brother Shui, how much do you want? When do you want it?"
"The more the better, in two or three days, right?"
Liang Qu not only had to invite Xu Yuelong and others, but also his master and brothers. The demand was not small.
"Sure, I'll go back and ask Acan and Ahuai to pay attention. The big guys will stay and raise the pond."
The two talked for a few words, and Lin Songbao declined the lunch invitation and left Liang's house.
Liang Qu went back to the bedroom to put Fu Bo on the shelf, put down Sheng Yuan Mugong's rhinoceros suitcase, stuffed the cash box under the bed, packed up his things and went to the pond.
Before leaving Pingyang County, Liangqu had arranged for craftsmen to start digging the pond early in the morning, but a sudden heavy rain prevented him from starting the work.
Since then, Liang Qu's people have been in Huazhu County, and the construction work in Liang's house has continued as usual.
In more than a month, the hired workers dug enough for a pond, and the appearance of the small pond in my memory changed drastically.
The most obvious thing is the space occupied!
The original area was doubled from more than one acre to two and a half acres and nearly three acres!
The pond is completely surrounded by pond stones. Outside the pond stones, there is a cobblestone path of ten feet wide, with stone slabs occasionally used to divide the road sections, and the gaps are filled with green grass.
The location of the beavers' cabin has not changed, it is still in the southeast corner, but the shape has changed and is not quite the same as the original one.
It couldn't move and was sleeping soundly next to the wooden house. There were several beavers surrounding it, and the big beaver headed by it was tapping a pair of green wood horns on its forehead.
In the northwest corner of the pond opposite the wooden house, a large amount of mud is billowing under the water.
It is the fist digging a hole under the water, preparing to bury itself and exert the [cave dwelling] effect.
As for the old clam.
As always, he lay down in the corner to bask in the sun, half soaked in water, half naked, with soft light emitting from the wavy clam shells all over his body.
Liang Qu looked around and faced the new pond. He suddenly felt that his vision was wide and he felt refreshed.
Only the boulder located in the middle of the pond is quite an eyesore.
"Old Bei, where did that stone come from?"
The Liang Canal points to the center of the pond where the water surface is exposed, and there is a special sunken boulder in the middle.
The old clam is as immovable as a mountain: "It's a shameless trip."
Liang Qu's thoughts changed: "Old toad?"
"Yes."
It's really an old toad.
"Come often?"
"There's a difference between three and five."
Liang Qu was thoughtful.
He had previously had the idea of building a rockery and carving a seat, so that the old toad would feel it was worth the money and then grab some treasure fish from the webs of its claws.
Unexpectedly, the old toad was self-reliant and saved him a fortune.
If you compare carefully, you will see that the pit in the stone is just right on the old toad's fat butt, and it fits perfectly. You can lie on it and see the sky at a glance.
It's just that the old toad himself didn't make it look good. There is still unscraped bird droppings on the edge of the stone. I don't know where it was moved from.
Liang Qu didn't pay much attention and asked Jiang O's family to clean it up another day.
Thinking of this, he looked around and found that there was no sign of the scar-faced river otter in the pond, nor was there any trace of the original nest.
"Old Bei, where did the nest of river otters at home go? Why didn't you see it?"
"I went to seek refuge. I chanted sutras every day, but I didn't dare to go back. Well, I counted the time and it was time to return."
As soon as the old clam finished speaking, several river otters poked their heads out of the underground river and looked around carefully.
It was the six river otters that lived in Liang Qu's house before!
The River Otter family was overjoyed to see the fist in the hole. Knowing that several water animals had returned, they hurriedly surfaced.
The leader of the river otter saw the man on the shore unable to move, and his whole body trembled with excitement.
It grabbed hold of the pond stone and climbed ashore, fluffed out its hair, squeaked and screamed while being unable to move, and then showed a claw finger.
Unable to move, he opened his eyes and closed them again, unmoved.
More than a thousand grilled fish have not yet been finished.
I don't want to move until I have to eat.
The river otter droops its head as if it were mourning for an heir.
The two little river otters staggered and lay on the ground, staring at the sky.
They are at a disadvantage because they are against a large number of enemies, not to mention that their opponents have no idea where they learned a set of boxing techniques.
The Ta family is finished!
The big beaver stepped forward and patted the old man on the shoulder to express comfort.
Although Scarface came menacingly and the beaver family was beaten and their house was destroyed, they didn't take it to heart.
Long live friendship!
Liang Qu's eyes flickered, feeling that a good opportunity was in front of him, so he looked at Old Tridacna.
"Old Bei, ask them if they want revenge. I can also teach them a set of boxing techniques."
Chapter completed!
