That's it? Eighty coins just like that? A day's work for fishermen? Liang Qu looked excited. It was so easy to get eighty coins. It was really tempting. But it was really tiring. After controlling the water flow of thirty kilograms of force, it was like running a thousand meters. His stomach started to growl again. After fusing with Ze Ling, his physical fitness improved a little, but after all, his foundation was too thin and he was still weak. While it was still dark, Liang Qu decided to take a break and try again. Uncle Chen lived a tight life with eighty coins because he had children and elderly people to support at home. Liang Qu had no worries. This income was definitely not a small amount. Let's see if he can score twice tonight. Half an hour later, Liang Qu entered the water again. Relying on the talent of a water monkey, he consumed very little physical energy in the water. Swimming a hundred meters was almost the same as walking two or three hundred meters. The breath-holding time was also extended to seven minutes. This was not static, but seven minutes of movement, which was amazing. Unfortunately, it seemed that his luck in catching yellow croaker had run out. After changing his breath four or five times and wandering for half an hour, Liang Qu only saw a spotted fish worth about 100 coins in the middle of the way.
The spotted fish is not as valuable as the yellow croaker. It is worth 100 coins because it is big enough, weighing 10 jin. A jin of fish has 10 jin of strength. A 10-jin big fish can have nearly 100 jin of strength when it suddenly bursts out. In Liang Qu's current state, coupled with his water control ability of only 30 jin, it is really difficult to deal with it. He can only watch it swim away. "It seems that next time I can bring a spear, so that I can deal with larger fish, but the price of dead fish is not as high as that of live fish, and I don't have a fishing net..." When Liang Qu was thinking in the water, he swam far away unknowingly and came to a shallow bottom beach. Although it was shallow, it was still more than ten meters deep. "Huh, there are lotus roots?" When Liang Qu stepped on the bottom of the water, the stems of plants suddenly appeared in his perception. After getting closer and carefully identifying them, he found that they were lotus roots. There are lotus roots in a place more than ten meters deep? Liang Qu was surprised. Whether it is floating, standing or submerged plants, their growth is inseparable from photosynthesis and respiration. The deeper the water, the more unfavorable these two processes are. Lotus roots are plants that have high requirements for light and respiration. As far as Liang Qu knows, lotus roots cannot survive in water depths of more than two meters. Liang Qu was excited to realize the abnormality of the lotus root growth environment. Plants cannot do without photosynthesis and respiration, but that is for ordinary plants. For some precious plants, it is naturally not included. This world has extraordinary power! At present, this lotus root can grow so deep, it must be extraordinary. I heard that Mr. Zhao in the next town has a cold pond that is tens of meters deep. There are water chestnuts growing at the bottom. Eating it can prolong life. He won over two warriors with this. I don’t know if it’s true or not. I actually encountered it too? Liang Qu immediately swam along the growth veins of the lotus root. He found that the lotus root was really big. He hadn't found the head for more than ten meters. Just when he wanted to continue swimming, a vague big thing suddenly appeared in his perception. What is it? It's so big!
Liang Qu quickly stopped and pulled away. The other party didn't react. It seemed that he didn't find him? Facing the lotus root that might be Baozhi, Liang Qu hesitated for a moment. He didn't choose to leave, but circled carefully and sensed in the water. The other party was lying in ambush in the mud. It was very long, two meters long, but it was not a fish. It had limbs, a long tail, and a slender body... The outline he could feel three meters away was very vague, but the image was too vivid. Liang Qu's eyes widened. It's a pig dragon! Pig dragon is a common name. In plain words, it is a crocodile. However, pig dragon is a general term for all crocodiles by fishermen. There are more than one kind of crocodile in the Jianghuai River. Liang Qu didn't know what kind was under the mud. The most common one in the vicinity should be Taihua crocodile, right? Liang Qu had seen Taihua crocodile in his original body, and he felt that it was similar to the Yangtze crocodile in his previous life. It was not big, only two meters long when grown up, and weighed more than 30 kilograms. This size is actually nothing for an adult, and weight is a fatal flaw, but that was on land, and now it is underwater, especially Liang Qu is just a malnourished teenager, and his weight is not much bigger. Besides... "This Taihua crocodile is lying next to the lotus root. Does it know that the lotus root is good for it?" Liang Qu carefully sensed and found that there were indeed places in the mud that had been turned over, exposing several pieces of gnawed lotus roots. Trouble. If the lotus root is taken away, the pig dragon lying here will never agree. The other party obviously made a nest here. Maybe it is not impossible to try? Liang Qu thought about it and felt that it was not impossible. It's not that he was blinded by lard. In his previous life, he liked to watch a host named Bifang who survived in the wilderness. He had a certain understanding of many creatures and knew that crocodiles have a fatal weakness, that is, they have a strong bite force but weak tension. If an adult pinches the snout of a crocodile with one hand, it cannot open its mouth, and most of its violent fighting power is wasted. It's just that only humans can accurately grasp objects in the biological world. Even monkeys can't grasp accurately because of their short thumbs, which makes crocodiles seem invincible in nature. As for this "little" crocodile in front of him, Liangqu's water control ability is enough to suppress it. Moreover, it is the end of October now, and the water is quite cold, which is very unfavorable for cold-blooded animals. The movement will be much slower than in summer. Maybe the crocodile is hibernating and didn't notice that there are creatures approaching. It's wrong to be indifferent when the time, place and people are all right. "It would be great if I could control it. It's so big, and it can help me catch fish. I don't have to go into the water every day. I can just sit back and enjoy the fruits of my labor. It's too troublesome to go into the water all the time to catch fish, and I don't really want to be an old fisherman." People always want more, and Liang Qu, who thinks he can control the pig dragon, has a bolder idea in his mind. As if in response to this idea, the Ze Ding in Liang Qu's mind suddenly trembled, and a strange rune suddenly lit up on the tripod. The rune looked like the word "water" in oracle bone script. More information poured in. Blood... Rune... Command the water tribe... Use blood to draw the water character on the water tribe, and there is a chance to become the ruler?
Awesome, Ze Ding has this ability? After receiving the information, Liang Qu's eyes lit up, thinking that Ze Ding's background is really amazing. If he were put in the outside world, he might be robbed! Now he can't let the pig dragon go. A subordinate is of great help, and crocodiles have limbs, which are much more flexible than other fish as subordinates. Having made up his mind, Liang Qu found a stone with edges and corners at the bottom of the river, about the size of a human head, and then tried to bring it close to the pig dragon in the mud. After determining the position of its snout, he smashed it down with force. The river water was controlled and discharged, helping to reduce resistance. The stone broke through the rolling torrent and hit the sleeping pig dragon. The weather was getting colder, and the blood flow of the crocodile was stagnant. It was already slow, not to mention being attacked in a dream. It stood upright for a moment, and then felt the pain of a collapse. Opportunity! Liang Qu pounced on it. He rushed behind the pig dragon, stuck in the blind spot of the vision and pressed the stone. The veins on his right arm were exposed, and his left hand fingers scratched the edges and corners, and several bloodstains scattered in the water. The water was filled with blood. The pig dragon smelled the fishy smell and became ferocious. It straightened its body and twisted vigorously, trying to open its mouth and bite, but before it could open its mouth, another stream of water surrounded its upper and lower jaws. Being pressed down by the stone and controlled by the water flow, the pig dragon couldn't open its mouth at all. It could only swing its body and struggle wildly. Its tail, as hard as cast iron, whipped the rock desperately. Liang Qu's whole body was tense, like a longbow stretched to the limit. All the muscles were twisted together, and the blood vessels were dilated, suppressing the pig dragon tightly. Cold sweat swept away with the water flow. Liang Qu overdrew a lot of physical strength by controlling the 20-jin water flow twice in a row, but he didn't dare to rest. Three of his fingers were bleeding and quickly scratched the back of the pig dragon. The blood condensed under the action of a certain strange force and did not disperse. It was imprinted on the scales along the fingerprints! The blood light bloomed in the darkness, and the vertical pupils of the pig dragon expanded instantly. A savage spiritual power blasted into Liang Qu's mind. If controlling the water flow is a physical overdraft, then controlling the pig dragon at this time is a mental overdraft, just like staying up all night and being forced to do a few math papers. Liang Qu's head hurt so much that he almost fainted. Fortunately, animals are still animals after all, how can they beat people with superior intelligence? In just a few breaths, a wonderful mental connection appeared in his mind. The dull eyes of the pig dragon became lively again, but no longer fierce, revealing a little agility. Ze Ding radiated brilliance again. [The water beast Taihua crocodile has been controlled and can evolve. ] Liang Qu looked overjoyed-it's done! Pig dragon? Take it in as a dog!
