Chapter 178: The Wind Rises
Hu Xiu casually threw the shovel away, it's time for it, what else do we want you to do?
I started to take the baby and brought it to the car, and after a while, after a few trips, I finally moved all the things back.
"What do you want to do with all this stuff you don't have?" Gu Tingcheng asked such a sentence, which was out of tune.
If all the useless things are so expensive, then I want countless useless things, but Hu Xiu thought like this, the businessmen in Wenjin County are really rich.
So, these things, suddenly I don't want to return them, what else do I want to pay back? How troublesome it is to bring them back to a family, this is directly confiscated.
Anyway, it's useless, isn't it, Hu Xiu thought secretly.
"Of course it's for seeing, but for what?" Gu Qingcheng didn't know it yet, the things she stole were much more precious and rare than those gold and silver.
"Oh~" she let out an oh and sat back in the carriage.
Hu Xiu himself also knew the way back, how to go, and he didn't need Gu Qingcheng to show the way, so he hurried all the way back to Wenjin County.
I thought I would go to the Wang's Mansion to see it, so I didn't go to see it, but I went to the mansion for a trip. The confiscated list was made. Now these treasures belong to the "official family".
Of course, this official family is Hu Xiu, the "official family", which went into his pocket. However, he really ate and drank in the bowl and looked at the inside of the pot.
At this moment, the Wang family in Wenjin County was unlucky, because of what Wang Dazhui and Hu Xiu said before. Even if you don't recruit yourself, you have to be punished a little anyway.
So this is a fine of 100 million points, so Hu Xiu didn't want much, that is, half of the treasure that Wang Da Hammer was lying on his side.
This is back to Shuiyue Villa along the street, look at the sky, it's not time, there is still time for this hot spring.
When I returned to the building, I looked at it, there was no one, but I went to the Spring Garden, and sure enough, I was in that, and after soaking in the hot springs, I went here to rest.
"Where's the hot spring?" This was asked by Hu Xiu, he had been soaked in that thing in his previous life and in this life, and he just went to wash away the anger on his body.
"Follow this road, walk, and you'll be there." Lamu, the child, didn't say the direction, just pointed to the only path in the spring garden in front of him.
"Be precise." Hu Xiu said helplessly.
"Let me tell you," Shi Ling'er walked over, she listened to what Lamu said, she couldn't listen anymore, "go straight along this road, then go south first, cross the second fork in the road, and then go west to the end, and you will arrive." ”
"That's it~" I should know how to go, Hu Xiu nodded, and didn't talk more about their habit of picking flowers.
After soaking in the hot springs, this is a comfortable meal, and then a medicinal bath. This day is about to pass again.
After a few days of comfortable days, Hu Xiu really didn't go out of the door these days, and he didn't step out of the second door. Staying in Shuiyue Villa, he hasn't figured it out yet, and it's really not fun to go outside.
It is estimated that the only entertainment activity in this Wenjin county is to visit the kiln? It's not that kind of kiln has no clear hall, go in and pay the money, or do the 1 together, do they have syphilis, or flower willow disease.
In the past few days, the treasures of Wang Dazhu's family have been sent one after another. Wang Da Hammer is a little crying without tears, and his treasures are gone.
On the day of April 11, Hu Xiu got up as usual, finished boxing, and was about to go to eat morning food in the opposite house. But halfway through the road, Hu Xiu felt as if there was a vibration on the ground, his eyesight was excellent, and he saw that the sand particles on the ground seemed to vibrate up and down.
Hurriedly bowed down, this Nima is really shaking, it can't be an earthquake. Hu Xiu thought in surprise, after all, the ground began to vibrate, but he had never experienced an earthquake, so he didn't know what it felt.
But left and right, and I don't see it, this is the ground vibration, although the fox is suspicious. But he also stood up and continued to walk towards the opposite house.
Along the way, the ground still vibrated without a trace of change, but at this moment, people were still attached to the opposite food, and their faces were a little weird.
"Do you feel the ground vibrating?" When Hu Xiu came up, he asked this, and he was a little skeptical that he was the only one who felt this way.
The women nodded again and again, and they also felt the vibration, as if the earth dragon had turned over, but they didn't see cracks on the ground, which has been shaking until now, and it really feels a little weird.
"This is very strange~" Hu Xiu felt that this vibration did not come from innocently, so where did it come from.
"This is at least a shock that can only be produced by the rapid march of an army of tens of thousands of people." Grandmother Gao sat down and said lightly.
However, if there are more than 100,000 troops nearby, who will be the target of the attack?
There are hundreds of miles around, but there is no city, on Hu Xiu's silk book map, he has been bored sometimes in the past few days, but after careful study several times, there is no city near here at all, where did the 100,000 rapid march come from?
Hu Xiu suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, which reminded him of the beast tide attack that Cangzhi County said to him, and it was the only possibility.
That is to say, there are at least 100,000 beasts rushing towards Wenjin County, and if the city is broken, it will be the tragedy of 20 years ago.
The city is broken, and the dead are not a little bit. Nearly nine-tenths of these people in Wenjin County do not know martial arts, think about the entire county there are only 200,000 people, and there are only about 20,000 people who are accompanied by martial arts.
And most of them are low-level martial artists, at most they are more powerful than ordinary people. And most importantly, the warriors of these 20,000 people also include those who guard the city and the people of the yamen.
"Hurry up and eat~" Hu Xiu had a gloomy face, hundreds of thousands of beasts besieged the city, no matter how you say it, you have to hurry up to understand the situation.
"Hmm." The women looked at Hu Xiu's look, and listened to the 100,000 marches that grandmother said, and they were already fighting in their hearts, probably suspecting something, but one thing is certain, it is definitely not a good thing.
Hu Xiu quickly finished his meal, and retreated with his grandmother. I hurried away, and after the Spring Garden, the temporary wooden bridge over the lake had already been built.
I don't know how those carpenters and bridgemakers came up with such a long wooden bridge, and it is indeed very strong. This is the experience that Hu Xiu has gained from walking over for a few days, and its temporary wooden bridge does not shake at all.
Walking across the wooden bridge, I felt that the vibration on the ground seemed to be stronger. Knowing that he couldn't delay any longer, he hurriedly went to the place where the emperor and the army lived.
Although the place where they live is not as good as Hu Xiu's, it is much more comfortable than before. It is a place where you live in a house, a house that is connected together. There are cooks and subordinates, and there is what should be there.
This place is the place where the Water Moon Villa lives for the guests, but you have to think about it, it is this place prepared for the guests and the staff, and it can accommodate the emperor and the army of a thousand people.
The ancestors of this Water Moon Villa are indeed rich, how much thought they put into it when it was built. But there must be no intention of rebellion, because this is just right for a thousand people, and if you come more, you will definitely feel crowded.
"What about Luo Chenyi~" Hu Xiu walked between the buildings, pulled a soldier at random, and asked.
"Report to the captain, the commander is wearing armor!" The soldier looked hurried, as if he was in a hurry to do something.
"Armor? Are you in such a hurry, and you want to wear it? Hu Xiu asked.
"Yes, Captain, there is still a quarter of an hour to go before we assemble in the spacious area in front of the building, Captain—" The soldier was a little embarrassed, but he had to say that if he dragged on like this, he would be unlucky.
"Go, go~" Hu Xiu waved his hand again and again, knowing where Luo Chen was going, he would do it, he would go there first and wait.
This man arrived at the front of the building, and there was indeed a large open space, and a large number of emperors and soldiers had gathered here at this time.
Hu Xiu saw Luo Chenyi from a distance, but he saw him wearing armor and robbing, and he was wearing silver armor, which was not majestic.
Seeing Hu Xiu coming, he hurriedly stepped forward, "Lord Captain~" and bowed.
"Did you notice something was wrong?" Hu Xiu asked.
"Well, a rapid army of about 300,000 to 500,000 is rushing towards Wenjin County." Saying this, Luo Chenyi's face was a little solemn.
"300,000 to 500,000?" Hu Xiu exclaimed, "How can there be so many?" ”
This is particularly troublesome, and it is already a little difficult to think that 100,000 beasts will rush to the city. This is a bit too much.
Don't say they're beasts, don't worry about them, but they're afraid because they're beasts. They don't have brains, they only know rampage, and there must be a shadow of someone behind them, someone directs them.
Hu Xiu knew it.
This Rihua forest is about 150,000 zhang long and more than 500,000 zhang wide, and no one can clearly know how many lives can be born in it.
It's so big and terrible that it's not too hard to gather so many beasts. Therefore, Wenjin County is about to face this disaster again.
"Are you sure it must be more than 300,000?" Their city guards who defend the city, plus the head catchers and small histories of the Yamen, are only 5,000 people, after all, it is not a big city, and 200,000 people in Wenjin County are already the limit to support this group of 5,000 people.
These 5,000 people are better against the beast tide below 100,000, but if the beast tide above exceeds 100,000, it is a qualitative change caused by quantitative changes, and they can't resist it for too long.
"To be sure, when I was eight years old, I was on the frontier with my father, and I am most familiar with this vibration." Luo Chen replied.
"Then it's trouble~" Hu Xiu frowned, this is really a big deal.
"It's really troublesome, 300,000 troops, coming here, although I don't know what they're going to do." Luo Chen's expression straightened.
"Lord Captain, why don't we run, before we know the specific situation, let the soldiers of Wenjin County guard first, we will go from the south gate, and then lead the army to come over to assist."
He is not greedy for life and afraid of death, a very simple truth, Hu Xiu's status is noble, he is the future emperor of Dahu, he can't have a little accident.
One more point, although the emperor and the army are brave, they are not stupid, they only know how to charge, at this time, it is quite important to have a leader with brains.
When you don't know the details of the enemy, blindly rushing will only bury your own and your comrades' lives.
At this point, Hu Xiu saw that Luo Chenyi was indeed a good commander. However, Luo Chenyi didn't know their details, but Hu Xiu probably knew that it should be the beast tide, otherwise this army of more than 300,000 could still emerge out of thin air?
"Not for the time being, this should be a beast tide, let's go to the city wall first to see what it is, and then make plans."
……
PS: Earthquake, also known as ground motion and ground vibration, is a natural phenomenon caused by the rapid release of energy from the earth's crust, during which seismic waves will be generated. The main cause of earthquakes is the squeezing and collision between plates on the earth, resulting in dislocation and rupture at the edge of the plate and within the plate.
Ground fissures are one of the precursor phenomena of earthquakes, and the residual deformation of earthquakes on the ground.
It is a macroscopic surface damage phenomenon in which the surface rock layer and soil are cracked under the action of natural factors (crustal activity, water action, etc.) or human factors (water pumping, irrigation, excavation, etc.), and cracks of a certain length and width are formed on the ground.
Here I am afraid that readers will say that I have written the size of the Rihua Forest blindly, so I will calculate it, the length of the Rihua Forest, according to Hu Xiu's hurried trip for three to four days, then it will be counted as less, three days.
As mentioned above, how far can Hu Xiu's carriage go every hour, because it is said to be in a hurry, so take the largest, sixty miles per hour, and if you go less in a day, you will go for four hours.
That is, two hundred and forty miles in one day, that is, a distance of one hundred and twenty kilometers, that is, 120,000 meters, and then the carriage traveled for three days, that is, 360,000 meters.
However, it is also defined in the text that the ancient one zhang was about 3.33333... is an infinite number, that is, it is about equal to three, 360,000 meters divided by three, that is 120,000 zhang.
But it doesn't have to be that it took three days to finish, Hu Xiu set up a carriage in a hurry, and he didn't say how fast, I said that it was 150,000 zhang is also reasonable, I didn't exaggerate that 200,000 zhang is already calculated.
