Chapter 232: Jiaojiao
Turning back to the riverbank, Zhang Cheng and the fleet were still waiting there, the torches on the riverbank were bright, and when they heard the sound, the torches shone over.
"Your Excellency, you're back!" Zhang Cheng hurriedly caught up: "Is something wrong?" ”
"It's all right."
"Do you want to continue to Camp Winds, then?"
Lin Bei thought for a while and said, "No need, I already know who is doing the Fengsi camp, let's go back to Linjiang City." ”
Zhang Cheng's eyes widened, and he couldn't figure out how Lin Bei knew, but Lin Bei was the biggest, so Zhang Cheng could only respect the order and order the ship to turn around and return to Linjiang City.
Lin Bei did not swim in the river this time, but stayed on the big boat, put the horn in front of him, and looked carefully up and down, left and right, this horn is the single horn of the pale gold python, it is said that it should be some kind of structure, in Lin Bei's mind, it should be similar to the rhinoceros horn, but Lin Bei feels that this horn is much harder than the rhinoceros horn, this is purely a feeling, but he thinks that his feeling will not be wrong.
"That pale golden python has grown horns, is it born or born after tomorrow? If it is acquired, wouldn't it be like a Jiao? Could it be that the next step in the evolution of the python is the Jiao? ”
If the horn is born, it means that the snake is a different snake, although there are few snakes, but there must be, just like a three-headed snake, a two-tailed snake, according to the research of scientists, this snake is generally because of the mutation caused by the environment, although the appearance is strange, in essence it is not without difference, but if it is a horn generated later, it is unusual, everyone should understand what this means.
Lin Bei guessed, his heart was a little hot, although countless people were guessing that the snake should be able to evolve into a Jiao if it evolved, but it was a pity. There are no instances of this speculation, just like many people firmly believe that there are ghosts, but they can't come up with any evidence, if the pale golden python is really an acquired horn, then Lin Bei can find evidence that the python will evolve into a Jiao.
Of course, this kind of Jiao must be different from what people generally think of as Jiao. In people's general consciousness, Jiao is a kind of deified beast, like a dragon, calling for wind and rain, this kind of Jiao in reality is likely to be just stronger, larger, and longer-lived, but even so, Lin Bei feels that it is already very good.
Myths are just myths. Legends are just legends, the legendary gods and Buddhas obviously don't exist, Lin Bei can become a larger, stronger, and longer-lived Jiao, who is already very satisfied.
"Zhang Cheng, try to pick up this horn and slowly stab the board of the boat to see." Lin Bei said to Zhang Cheng, who was standing on the side.
Zhang Cheng nodded and picked up the horn. Lin Bei suddenly asked, "Did you feel when you picked up the horn?" For example, what do you think is the breath of the horn or the power of the power? ”
Zhang Cheng was dazed and shook his head: "My lord." I didn't feel anything, did I? ”
"Oh, it's okay, you stab." Lin Bei nodded, and said in his heart that it seemed that only he could feel this feeling, or that only snakes could feel it.
Zhang Cheng picked up the horn and inserted it into the plank, and he would definitely not be able to plug in the plank before he used force. Zhang Cheng slowly exerted his strength, but still did not insert it into the plank, the horn was obviously not sharp.
"My lord, this horn is very strong." Zhang Chengyan said, he could feel that the horn was really hard. Although it can't be plugged in, the horn is not broken, is it?
"You can poke a little harder, like a spear."
Zhang Cheng nodded, raised the horn, hey, poked it violently at the ship's board, this strength was really enough, he heard a snort, the horn pierced into the ship's board, Zhang Cheng pulled out the horn, there was a hole in the ship's board, but the horn was not damaged at all.
Zhang Cheng was a little surprised: "My lord, this horn is not as good as an iron spear." ”
Lin Beixin said sure enough, in this way, Lin Bei is sure that this is definitely a horn, although it is generally the same cuticle as rhinoceros horn, but the molecular structure is definitely different, just like steel and iron, just the slight difference in carbon content, which makes the hardness of the two very far apart.
"Lao Tzu actually picked up a horn!! It's really developed. Lin Bei roared in his heart, this is probably the only one in the world, because if Lin Bei guessed correctly, this horn belongs to the Haka tribe, but obviously, the Haka has died, and the natives dug out the horn of Haka, made a horn, and used it to tame snakes and insects, but now it has been picked up by Lin Bei.
"Huh? My lord, why can't this horn be sounded? Zhang Cheng tried to blow the horn when Lin Beiqing's feelings were shaking, but found that it couldn't be blown at all.
"Huh? Impossible, you use some strength. ”
Zhang Cheng puffed out his cheeks and blew hard, blowing so hard that the green tendons on his neck came out, but in the end he didn't blow it: "My lord, this horn is bad." Zhang Cheng said affirmatively.
Lin Bei smiled bitterly: "Where do you see it's broken?" ”
Zhang Cheng checked the horn again, it was really not bad, and he tried it again without believing in evil, but it still couldn't be blown, Zhang Cheng simply called a sergeant, and the sergeant also tried once, but it couldn't be blown either, the sergeant was very puzzled, he still had a horn pinned to his body, he was a horn hand in the army, and the horn on his body was made of horns, and the sergeant blew the horns, and the melodious sound sounded.
Obviously, the horn can be blown, but the horn made of this horn can't be blown, Lin Bei remembered the ease with which the natives sounded the horn, and finally could only guess that it would take a special skill to blow this horn.
Lin Bei tried it himself, but his mouth was too big, even if he could bite the horns, he couldn't blow it, and there was air leakage on both sides.
But the more this is the case, the more it proves that this Jiaojiao is extraordinary, after returning to Linjiang City, Lin Bei asked the sergeant to find a wooden box, put Jiaojiao in it, sealed it, and asked the carpenter to wrap another layer of wood on the outside of the wooden box, making it like a safe.
Sleepless all night, on the second day, Lin Bei called Zhang Cheng: "Zhang Cheng, quickly send a sergeant to Wanghai City, let Zhongzhi send another thousand sergeants to Linjiang City, and when the sergeant arrives, we will attack the Haka tribe." ”
Zhang Cheng was taken aback, and said hesitantly: "My lord, what about the Fengsi camp??" ”
"It was the spirit witch of the Haka tribe, and yesterday I entered the jungle to kill the spirit witch. In addition, there are five strange beasts, and the horn is also a spirit witch, since the Haka tribe has sent a spirit witch, it is to guard against my Linjiang City, but they should not have thought that the spirit witch is dead, so we will hurry up and attack. It's also considered unprepared. ”
Zhang Cheng was convinced: "Okay lord, I will immediately send a sergeant to inform the pavilion elder." ”
"By the way, let Zhongzhijia send some men to watch over those natives, so that they don't make trouble."
"The villain understands."
From the time the news was sent to the sergeant, it took almost three days, and Lin Bei naturally stayed in Linjiang City for the past three days, and took advantage of these few days to go to the place where the poppies were planted, wanting to try this poppy. But every time I can't make up my mind.
"My lord, a common man caught a big fish." A sergeant came to report it.
"Oh? How big a fish. Lin Bei said disapprerovingly.
Wanghai City is near the sea, and even the blue whale Lin Bei has seen it, big fish? What big fish can be bigger than a blue whale.
"It's a big fish more than three feet long." The sergeant was a little excited.
How long is three zhang? That's about ten meters? In the river, this kind of fish is indeed not small, and it can even be said to be a giant fish, no wonder the sergeant is very excited.
"Let's go, let's see." Lin Bei looked at the swaying poppies again and let the sergeant lead the way. Towards the river.
On the edge of the Mekong River, there are already many people watching. From time to time, there were sounds of admiration.
"Catch it, don't let it jump into the river."
"Block!!"
"What a big fish!!"
"It's so strong, how did you get it?"
"This fish jumped ashore on its own!!"
The sergeant shouted from behind the crowd that Lord Ryujin was coming, and the crowd parted, leaving a passage, and Lin Bei saw the big fish at a glance. I admired in my heart, this is a blue-yellow Siamese giant carp.
The Siamese giant carp is a special fish of the Mekong River, and there is no other place to this giant carp except the Mekong River, and this giant carp is surrounded by a dozen people. There are those with nets, some with tails, and some with mouths, but the strength of this fish is so great that a dozen or so people can't catch it.
"Go ahead and leave me alone." Lin Bei said with a smile, watching with interest.
Although the giant carp has great strength, but on the shore it is like a felt board, after dehydration, it is slowly exhausted, and the people use a knife to cut open the belly of the giant carp, and then they will hang the whole fish that has been slaughtered clean, and hang it to a high place for air drying, which is a trophy, and will only be taken down and eaten during the New Year.
When the belly of the fish was cut open, everyone lifted the fish, threw it into the river, and cleaned the fish belly, Lin Bei was also watching everyone clean the fish, but when he looked at the river, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and then looked at the bank, Lin Bei suddenly said: "Have any of you found it, has the river risen in the past two days?" ”
Several people nodded and smiled: "Yes, my lord, the water has risen a lot, and yesterday it was not enough to reach the footboard, and now it is up to the knee." ”
After hearing this, Lin Bei's heart flashed with worry.
At night, Lin Bei felt that his premonition was really accurate sometimes, he couldn't sleep at night and came out to walk, passing by the riverbank, Lin Bei found that the river water had risen nearly half a foot deep.
"According to this kind of rise, it will have to rise ashore in the next two days, but it is not raining now."
This night, Lin Bei passed by the river bank three times, each time he passed by and found that the river water rose a little, in the early morning, the river water has risen nearly a foot, and saw that the river water is only about one meter away from the high place of the pier in Linjiang City, Lin Beixin said no, according to this look, it is the flood season of the Mekong River.
Modern people know the term flood season, that is, due to the regional rainfall in the river section to guide the regular rise of the water level, this period is generally the largest precipitation of the year, the most concentrated period, the flood season of the small river is not terrible, but if it is a big river, and in the downstream of the big river, the consequences are quite terrible.
In the history of China, the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, the two major rivers have created flood disasters countless times in the flood season, and the ancient technical level is limited, which can not stop the raging floods, leading to floods for thousands of miles, countless people have been displaced, and many times have been recorded in the history books.
"Am I so unlucky? Wanghai City suffered a typhoon and tsunami some time ago, and now the Mekong River is about to rise again? Lin Beizhen felt that he had an unlucky halo on his head? Wherever disaster goes, disaster goes? (To be continued......)
