Becoming a God Starting from a Water Monkey

Hantai Prefecture.

Bai family mansion.

Bai Mingzhe squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, his gaze finding a long, undulating arc in the vast sky and lake light.

That is the ridge of the Bingjing Snow Mountain. The hard and sharp rocks are covered with thick white snow, as gentle as a girl's back.

Compared with a few months ago, the snow line on the mountainside has been retreating.

Another summer.

No, it’s September, almost October, and autumn has already arrived.

He grew up here. At the age of nine, he went to Nanzhili to study with great scholars of the time and read classics. At the age of fourteen, he went to the imperial capital to receive the most orthodox martial arts education. He had three Zhenxiang teachers alone. He came back at the age of twenty-four and became an elder of the Bai family at the age of forty-two. During the sixty-year period, "Ice Mirror Mountain, Blue Lake, the scenery of my hometown, I never get tired of seeing it."

"Yes, they are from Nanzhili! Mr. Bai recognized them as soon as he heard their accent." The young man had freckles on his face, and he was breathing heavily. "We checked more than a dozen ports and asked them one by one, and found the place where they disembarked and boarded the ship."

"Any clues?"

"No, they took different boats all the way here. When they boarded the boat, they were almost at Hantai. The boatman who was supposed to pick them up could no longer be found, and they are still looking for him."

"The distance between the east and west is so great. It would take months to find them even if they changed trains four or five times. Are there any other clues? Who are their superiors and what is their purpose?"

"No." The young man was ashamed. "They handled it very cleanly. The third master looked through the package but didn't find any useful clues. There was only a letter with wax on it. When he looked at it against the firelight, it was just a trivial letter.

We are still studying whether there is another meaning. It is more likely that it was spoken orally, and there is no written clue. "

Bai Mingzhe frowned.

Since five years ago, the imperial court has sent people in waves...

"In this troubled time, just like before, let the clan members be more restrained, go out less, and make fewer troubles. Anyone who makes a mistake, no matter who it is, will be confined for three months, no, six months! Let the third brother go out and find a reason to kill the chicken and make the monkey,

There must be five generations of collateral relatives outside the eight families, and in serious cases, they will be killed on the spot."

"yes!"

"Phew, what a dry day."

Cha Qing took off his fur coat, opened the kettle and took a sip.

Although Hantai Prefecture is adjacent to the Blue Lake and snow-capped mountains and has no shortage of water, the air is inexplicably dry. Coming here from Pingyang Prefecture, not to mention feeling uncomfortable, I feel uncomfortable everywhere.

Acclimatization is no big deal.

Even worse is the communication.

In such a huge Hantai Prefecture, there was not even a single person who could speak Mandarin. There were only a few people there. Fortunately, the three of them had tried hard to learn something during the more than four months on the road. Unfortunately, the locals were naturally wary of outsiders and spoke with a half-familiar accent. After a few days, they still had not made any progress and could only rent a small house.

"On the 15th day of August, the Kangji of the Hengren Caravan sank in the 'Three Vortexes' waters in the lower half of the Grand Canal, causing the loss of 3,000 shi of official salt. The cuts on the sunken ship were smooth, and it was suspected that they were cut by a sharp weapon. The three law enforcement departments conducted a preliminary investigation and found that the chief clerk of the Canal Transport Department was colluding with the black market. - Requesting the approval of the River and Lake Office for assistance."

"Catch those who eat from within!"

Swell.

"Bloodstone Merchants Guild, carrying black iron and bloodstone weapons, is heading north to Heyuan Prefecture at the request of the imperial court. Requesting a document of passage (no contraband, after inspection, the transfer order is genuine)."

"put!"

Swell.

【Water Essence +24】

[Water Essence: 247,060]

Liang Qu held the official seal, pinched a lotus seed, looked at it again, and wrote "opinion" under the seal.

"The Zhang family's caravan from Xiangyi County is heading north to Heyuan Prefecture. They are doing quite well. It's just in time for me to take my senior brother's BMW with me."

The above-mentioned government affairs are all handled with the help of the two brothers Long Pingjiang and Long Pinghe and a group of subordinates. It is not complicated to handle and can be handled in half an hour a day.

Go to the Snow Mountain immediately and make sure everything is arranged properly.

He was a fourth-rank general of Huaishui.

Liang Qu's main responsibility was to capture and release people throughout Pingyang Prefecture and even the surrounding canals and waterways.

If there are monsters causing trouble on the water, he is responsible for killing them. He tends to be more inclined towards military matters and occasionally inspects the army.

The situation of Xu Yuelong and his men is more complicated. As the chief and deputy chief, they coordinate civil and military affairs and have more comprehensive responsibilities, including maintaining the canal waterway, hydrological observation, and issuing licenses. Due to the special nature of Pingyang Prefecture, it can be said that the actual control scope is not limited to the prefecture itself, especially with Su Guishan in charge.

There are many heavy rains in Pingyang Prefecture in August and September. After returning from observing Meng Baihuo, life has indeed been busy.

The only regret is that after two months of seclusion, which lasted the entire July, my senior brother Yang Xu had limited time and had already left on horseback at Chishan, so I didn’t get to see him for the last time.

By taking advantage of the power of office, I saved a small amount on the BMW shipping fee.

There was an urgent knock on the door.

"grown ups!"

"Pingjiang? What's going on?"

Long Pingjiang strode forward and presented a leaf: "In September, heavy rains flooded three towns and six townships in Haiyan County. Villagers rushed into the Dragon King Temple and the granaries looted tribute and old grains. "

"The dam has collapsed again?" Liang Qu held the official seal in his hand, horrified.

Long Pingjiang said hurriedly: "The dam did not break. It was just that the heavy rain caused the lake to overflow. The overflow was not serious and flooded the farmland. Some people took advantage of the chaos to incite the villagers to loot. There were casualties, but it was because of the crowd trampling."

It's good that Liangqusong didn't collapse the dike, but the extent of the impact will be very different.

"How do you say withdrawal?"

“First, we will offer you the golden scale flag with tax exemption to attract grain merchants and stabilize the people’s hearts. Then, I will ask you to mobilize 80 mermaids and 300 soldiers to go to Haiyan County to drain the water.

"You lead the team, you make the arrangements, and the Mermaid will discuss this with Magistrate Quan."

"yes!"

After looking at the sky, Liang Qu opened the window and prepared to fly to Haiyan County to check the situation.

jingle.

The bell on the table rang.

It was Su Guishan who called.

"Uncle, what did you call me for? Haiyan County is flooded, I'm rushing to check it out."

"The flooding is not a dam breach. The Haiyan County Magistrate can handle it. Three things." Su Guishan knocked on the table. "First, take the first three of these on the table back. I'll reward you based on the situation."

"These are—"

Liang Qu lowered his head.

From left to right, there are blue official uniforms, emerald green ribbons, and silver fish-scale waist badges. They are all beautiful and exquisite. At first glance, they are very expensive...

"The second thing is that the Pingyang River has risen."

"Promoted?" Liang Qu didn't understand how the Hebo Office could be promoted.

"From now on, Pingyang River Port will be renamed Huaidong River Port. The Beijing-Lanzhou Grand Canal from Weishan Lake to the latter half, the southern Zhili section of the Huai River, and the shallow water areas of the Jianghuai Lake will all belong to the Huaidong River Port. The river ports in the corresponding prefectures and states in the waters must cooperate with us.

Therefore, the court issued new accessories to the outstanding officials in the Huaidong River Basin. The ninth rank was given a blue ribbon, the eighth rank was given a blue ribbon, and the seventh rank was given a silver scale waist badge. There were a certain number of these three ranks. When they were seen, they were regarded as superiors and had special powers.

In addition, there are three other spiritual tools: the Gray Turtle Seal, the Black Armor Mask, and the Purple Lightning Boat. We only have three of these in the entire Huaidong River Port. I thought about it and thought that giving you the Black Armor Mask might be useful."

"What for?"

"Impartial and impartial, below the fifth rank, kill first and report later."
