Chapter 234 Making up for shortcomings
Dense forests undulate along the mountainside, with lush beech, red pine and pine needle trees growing in an impenetrable interlaced pattern.
Liang Qu stood on the empty mountain top, the long-lost sunshine shining down, evaporating the moldy moisture on his body.
The entire Huaiyin Prefecture, especially the six or seven large counties in the southeast, has been experiencing alternating periods of heavy rain for more than half a month, with no signs of stopping so far. He has seen the sun only a handful of times.
Only in the dream created by mirages can one experience the long-lost sunny day.
Liang Qu sat cross-legged, his palms empty, and the thunder seal appeared in his hands.
He threw it lightly, and the scroll floated in the air and unfolded to both sides, with black words slowly appearing on the white paper.
It was only expanded to about one-fifth of the page, and the content behind it gradually twisted into a black tadpole shape, crooked and with occasional clear text.
The reason is simple. Liang Qu didn't memorize the following content at all, so it naturally couldn't be revealed in his dream.
The time is too short and the whole book of Lei Zi Yin Fa has a lot of words. It is impossible to remember the whole content without spending some time to memorize it.
However, one-fifth of the content includes the general outline and the complete practice method of the first part, which does not prevent him from practicing in his dreams.
The key to the entire thunder character printing method lies in the thunder character.
When Yin ends, Yang begins to grow; thunder is Yang wood
Observe the thunder appearance, and use the qi and blood to condense and nourish the thunder talisman. This is the first step. Then use the thunder talisman to generate thunder energy, and then practice the methods of attack and movement.
If you have the corresponding natural treasures, or if you can visualize the Thunder Lake in spring and feel the burst of Yang energy, it can speed up the formation of the Thunder Talisman.
This is also the reason why Liang Qu no longer creates desert dreams, but instead comes to the forest.
“I wonder if I can condense the thunder talisman in half a month, and then practice the thunder energy and thunder steps…”
Although the Thunder Seal Technique was learned from a duel with Wei Shao, it is highly compatible with him and may be able to make up for his shortcomings in physical skills.
That's right, flaws.
The martial arts Liang Qu has learned so far only include the Blue Dragon Seven Killing Spear and the Falling Star Arrow. The Ape Fist is hardly included.
The golden bodies of dragon and tiger are the external manifestations of the martial art "Diamond Sutra of Subduing Dragons and Tigers". Strictly speaking, it is not a martial art, but a secret mystery in the martial art, just like the concentration and inner vision in "Wansheng Baoyuan".
Apart from these two martial arts, Liang Qu has never practiced any physical martial arts, which should have been a huge shortcoming, despite his good conditions.
When he fights in the water, his fighting style is basically a crushing one, with no need for detours, and he has the help of leaping skills.
On the shore there is also the Yinglong pattern of Zhou Youliuxu, which fully meets his hardware requirements.
Currently, Yinglongwen's assistance allows him to max out his dodge below the Galloping Horse Realm, unless he encounters a large-scale enveloping attack.
However, large-scale attacks will inevitably sacrifice some accuracy and power, and Liang Qu possesses the golden body of dragon and tiger, so even when he is just starting out, he is stronger than ordinary horizontal training methods.
With one dodge and one defense, he is almost invincible.
If the opponent wants to break the law with force or use his realm to suppress others, that is another matter.
Everyone has weak moments. When you meet someone like that, you shouldn't confront them head-on, but should be more roundabout.
The first step is to go home and find the master. If the master can't help, then take the second step and ask the old monk if he can do it. If the old monk refuses to do it, then take the last step and go to ask Xu Yuelong to find his father, the Earl, and grandfather, the Duke.
This is the network of relationships, and one move by others can affect the entire body.
Some people like to place themselves outside the network of relationships, and walk with difficulty and fear.
Little do we know that heaven and earth are unkind and treat all things as straw dogs. It is you who choose your own path.
The survival rate of one crisis is 50%, and the chance of survival after three crises is only one in ten.
Liang Qu chose to place himself in a network of relationships and take advantage of it.
If someone really wants to mess with him, they can only do it secretly and shadyly.
Unfortunately, the Yinglong pattern has its shortcomings, or rather, it is Liangqu’s shortcomings.
The level of the single layer of Yinglong pattern is too low, and it is impossible to truly travel around the Six Voids. Currently, it can only move with the wind and dodge attacks. It is far lacking in initiative and can retreat but not advance.
More than enough for defense, but not enough for attack.
If you can combine it with the Thunder Step in the Thunder Seal Method, you will be able to advance and retreat with confidence and be more calm.
Moreover, among the seal techniques, Lei Ming Jin is a first-class power method with strong explosiveness and high killing power.
There is Mingyuan power in "Wansheng Baoyuan" and there is dragon and tiger Vajra power in "Vajra Sutra of Subduing Dragons and Subduing Tigers".
Both are good, but my skills have not been cultivated to that level, so I can't use them at all. It's just right to use Lei Ming Jin as a transition.
Unfortunately, after the duck swimming competition once, I guess no one would agree to compete with me next time. I can only trick you once.
Liang Qu collected his thoughts and closed his eyes.
Lightning flashed between heaven and earth, and thunder rushed through the air like a galloping horse, leaving a faint impression in the heart.
Observe the thunder.
……
At the pier, fishermen tied up their boats and moved their fish baskets. Lin Songbao was nowhere to be seen in the fishing pens, but two other young men were collecting the catch and weighing the fish for someone.
There was a lot of noise outside, with occasional laughter from fishermen. One fisherman was afraid that he would be cheated on by others, but he also didn't want to miss the fun, so he stood on tiptoe and stuck his head out. He happened to see Chen Yi carrying two large fish baskets and shouted to him.
"Brother Chen, you caught so many fish today? Do you have any good ones? If you have, please show me the way!"
"Yes, of course not, see it!"
Chen Yi grabbed a large fish with a bright silver glow from the fish basket, and foam flew out of the water as its tail swung.
The fisherman was shocked. He first looked back to see the number of fish, then stuck his head out and shouted.
"Golden Rainbow Trout!"
"Bullshit, Mr. Liang took the "Record of Fishes" from the river and pasted it on the wall. Did you read it for nothing? Silver sand carp! A pound of meat is worth one ounce and two cents!"
"Strange, one pound must be several ounces?"
"You are confused, what are you talking about?"
"Pah, pah, pah, one piece must be worth several taels, right?"
"About 70-80 taels, at most one jin. By the way, I saw the red blood bass that Mr. Liang caught in the water yesterday at Pingyang Pier. Wow, it must have weighed 60-70 jin, that's big enough!"
Someone interrupted.
"Why are the treasure fish we caught so small?"
"A pound of fish has ten pounds of strength, and a bighead carp has to have ten times that, so a pound of fish has a hundred pounds of strength! How much meat do you have on your body? Thinking of catching a big bighead carp? We're not that lucky!
"Have you noticed that we are fishing farther away and our nets are breaking more often? Who knows which precious fish may have let you out!"
"Your words make me feel itchy, as if I had thrown away silver."
Passersby clutched their clothes, drooping their brows, feeling extremely uncomfortable at the thought that there might have been precious fish in their nets.
"You can't say that. Years ago, Old Chen, Chen Qingjiang, caught a big blue-backed carp. In the middle of winter, he just hit it with a stick and knocked it unconscious. How could he have made a splash with more force? Let's see if you dare."
"That's not fish, it's dozens of taels of silver. I definitely dare to do it!"
Chen Yi looked down on him: "Hey, of course you dare to do it since you are on the shore now... Hey, Master Liang! Master Liang is here!"
When Liang Qu arrived at the pier, he heard someone calling him and asked with a smile, "It's so lively, did you catch something good?"
"Silver sand carp! At least seven taels!"
"nice."
Liang Qu went over to take a look and saw that it was undoubtedly a silver sand carp.
Some time ago, he spent a few cents to buy a book called "Fish Record" at the River and Lake Bureau. The book records commonly seen precious fish, half of which is pictures and half is words.
After reading it, I tore it off and pasted it under the eaves of the fishing hut so that everyone could see it. Even those who were illiterate could recognize it. Those who could read would teach everyone how to pronounce the name.
Quite effective.
"That's all thanks to Mr. Liang." Chen Yi took the lead and ushered Liang Qu into the teahouse. "Mr. Liang, please take a seat. I'll treat you to tea."
"Uncle Chen Yi, if you want to sell fish, don't look for me. Go to the martial arts hall and look for my senior brother."
Silver sand carp has a lot of bones and is very troublesome to eat, so Liang Qu doesn't like it very much.
"Okay." Chen Yi said as he laid out two copper coins and asked the waiter to serve tea. "But I'm not here to sell fish. I just want Mr. Liang to sit for a while and have some fun."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone responded.
"Yes, yes, very interesting!"
"You should wait and not miss it!"
"This fun has something to do with you, Mr. Liang!"
Fun with me?
Liang Qu was surprised to hear this, but since he was in no hurry to leave the boat, he simply sat in the teahouse with everyone and chatted about family matters.
How does the saying go? Where you come from... you're going back to where you came from.
Less than a quarter of an hour.
"Here it comes, the fun is coming!"
"Master Liang, look!"
Liang Qu stood up and looked towards the lake in the direction everyone was pointing. Suddenly, he saw a streak of white water emerging from a distance, moving closer and closer, like a flying fish.
Wait, that's...
Wei Shao?
