Chapter 61: The Lost City
This fern forest seems to have no end.
Measuring this dark forest with his feet, Wei Xingshan felt that no one had done such a stupid thing except for the four of them.
It's almost six o'clock in the afternoon.
Fifteen hours have passed since three o'clock in the morning today, and the surrounding environment is still the same bird.
Aoba Big Mantis, Wei Xingshan can't count how many he has slaughtered.
Anyway, after twenty, he stopped counting.
In addition to the green leaf giant mantis, Wei Xingshan also killed a tabby giant centipede, of course, this is also the species that Yang Tuo just named. The cause of its death was that it was too ugly and too close.
There was also a giant grasshopper, which didn't choose a good landing point when it jumped and landed, and was smashed above the team, and was also killed by Wei Xingshan with a shot.
Anyway, in the past ten hours, Wei Xingshan has a spear in his hand, and there is a sense of pleasure that God blocks and kills God and Buddha blocks.
But he knew in his heart that he could be so invincible because Lin Shuo was holding a knife in front of him to block it.
Killing those things by himself was actually put by Lin Shuo for him to practice, and the really powerful ones had already died under Lin Shuo's knife.
Because of the limited brightness of the headlamp, he couldn't see what Lin Shuo had killed and how much.
In short, after walking for more than ten hours, the road was straight.
Now, the energy brought by the killing has long passed.
These spears of more than sixty catties, Wei Xingshan didn't think it was anything as soon as he got his hands on them. But after stabbing all the way, the lactic acid accumulated in the arm muscles had no time to decompose, and at the moment, Wei Xingshan felt that these two arms were not his own.
"The more this time, the more insistence. Lin Shuo said in front, "The accumulation of human muscle strength is the cycle of tearing and healing, you just tear your muscles at this time, and I will help you when you go back to heal." ”
"Lao Lin, are you trying to train me to be a monster like you?" Wei Xingshan said in a muffled voice.
"It's impossible to be like me. Lin Shuo said lightly, "However, since Miss Anne said that she might continue to cooperate in the future, then you, the captain of the operation, can't always be so wasteful." ”
"Okay. Wei Xingshan didn't refute, and then said, "But Lao Lin, in this era, you hunters should also use hot weapons, right? If you say a hooked snake, you might not be able to do it with a normal bullet, but we have something more powerful. ”
"That's right, cold weapons are limited by human power, and their power is limited after all. Lin Shuo said, "However, some of the benefits of cold weapons are also not available in hot weapons. ”
"For example?"
"One is the low failure rate, the more simple the structure, the lower the failure rate. The current * structure is relatively complex, which will cause failures. In our line of work, once the guy in his hand can't be called, it's a death. Lin Shuo said, "In addition, cold weapons are relatively lightweight. ”
"The failure rate is right, and it's lightweight. Wei Xingshan said, "This chasing master on your body, with the same weight, I can transport a cannon over." ”
"Can artillery pass through such a dense forest?" Lin Shuo asked rhetorically.
"This ...... All right. ”
"And most importantly, there is one more important point. Lin Shuo said, "Using cold weapons can allow users to enter a real combat state. ”
"Then when we soldiers raise our guns, isn't it in a state of battle?" Wei Xingshan asked rhetorically.
"You are in a state of slaughter or being slaughtered. Lin Shuo said, "The power of the weapons in your hands is too far from your own combat power. Naturally, you will be spoiled by the weapons in your hands.
This is the reason why your old Wei is obviously outstanding in the military industry, but he really starts to do it, but he is still so wasteful. ”
Lin Shuo's words made Wei Xingshan stunned for a moment.
"Difficulties are grinding. Lin Shuo said, "The chasing master behind me, to pull it away, I must have the corresponding strength, so my strength must at least be so great." You Wei Xingshan can usually pretend to be forced by doing a few deadlifts in the gym, then your strength level can only pull the trigger, which is very realistic. ”
"You are right, I have to practice hard. ”
"It's too late to start practicing. Lin Shuo shook his head, "Everything you practice must talk about talent, but also about timing." Your talent is actually so-so, but you are in your thirties this year, and your physiology has reached its peak, and no matter how much you practice, the upper limit is not high. But it's better to practice than to eat and wait for death. ”
"Then how did you practice before, Lao Lin?" asked Wei Xingshan.
"My family's method is passed on to children but not to daughters, and not to the outside. Lin Shuo smiled, "If you want to hear it, you have to call me dad first." ”
"I won't call it!" Wei Xingshan shouted, and then seemed to remember something, "Hey, Lao Lin." You'll let me call Miss Anne for a while, and you'll call you Daddy for a while. You kid is a big enough girl!"
Hearing this, Lin Shuo almost stumbled under his feet.
Then he seemed to have noticed something, and the whole person stood still.
Lin Shuo's figure was stunned, Wei Xingshan panicked, he was afraid that the joke just now was too big, and Lin Shuo would beat people.
The hero doesn't suffer the loss in front of him, and the giant man quickly admitted his mistake: "Chief, I was wrong!"
Lin Shuo turned around and glanced at Wei Xingshan, took a step sideways, and showed what he had just seen in front of everyone's eyes.
Wei Xingshan's headlamp has changed the battery twice, and now is the time to have enough power.
The lights illuminated the road ahead, but Wei Xingshan found that there was no road ahead.
A wall in front of everyone.
It is a wall made of black bricks.
......
The black-and-white image of the black brick city wall is pinched in Cao Yusheng's hands at this moment.
This is a fax, and Cao Yusheng just received it half an hour ago.
After receiving the fax, Cao Yusheng asked his driver to prepare the car, and he was going to rush to the Capital International Airport.
The ticket to the United States was actually booked yesterday. This fax is not only evidence that the other party asked him to go to the United States, but also a reminder.
Sitting in the back seat of his luxury car at this moment, Cao Yusheng looked at the fax in his hand, and his thoughts couldn't help but go back to thirty years ago.
The six masters of the Hunting Gate, he Cao for the rest of his life, is the contemporary head of the "Yanjing Cao".
Thirty years ago, he was still a handsome young man who had just turned twenty years old and belonged to the side branch of the Cao family.
With his status at the time, he was able to get to know those three people, and he felt that he was climbing high.
These three people, one is called Lin Leshan, the descendant of "Jiangnan Lin".
One is named Miao Guangqi, the main descendant of "Xiangxi Miao".
There is also the only descendant of "Hu Guangyun" who has walked in the world in the past hundred years, and it is a woman named Yun Yuexin.
These three men and one woman met in their best years, the man's blood is strong, and the woman's beauty and moon appearance, this friendship soon came to an end, and Lin Leshan finally hugged the beauty.
Cao Yusheng and Miao Guangqi were sad and sympathetic, and the two went to the northeast to hunt a strange creature called "Mountain Yama King".
In the process of chasing this strange creature, Cao Yusheng overheard the legend of "Dragon City".
Although Cao Yusheng is a hunter, he has read poetry and books since he was a child, and he is also proficient in history.
He knew that this kind of folklore was often not groundless, but had a prototype.
And these legends of the Dragon City are actually spread all over the Northeast, although the descriptions are not the same, but they are generally the same thing, which aroused Cao Yusheng's interest.
The "King of Mountain Yama" was haunted, and Cao Yusheng and Miao Guangqi quickly lost the clues.
Anyway, being idle is idle, and the two began to study Dragon City instead.
While inquiring about the existing historical materials in China, the two of them investigated and searched on the spot, but they stayed in the northeast for more than a year, and almost ran all along the Heilongjiang River, and found nothing.
After that, Miao Guangqi went to the United States to develop, and Cao Yusheng returned to the foot of Yanshan.
That period of more than a year was the darkest time in Cao's life.
Frustrated in love, going to do something, deliberately keeping himself busy, being able to forget that woman, and not doing it.
Usually he deliberately doesn't recall that time, and there are only two times in the past thirty years that can remind him of these things.
Once six years ago, Lin Leshan sent a telegram inviting him to go to Kunlun Mountain, but he refused.
Another time was three days ago, Miao Guang inspired the photo of Jun porcelain, telling him that "Dragon City" does exist.
And the black-and-white photo of the city wall in his hand at present is also reminding him that Miao Guangqi seems to have "found" Dragon City in the United States.
A woman who has been missing for 30 years is still missing.
And a city that has been lost for 800 years has now been found.
Cao Yusheng smiled bitterly, folded the fax in his hand, and put it in the briefcase he carried with him.
