Chapter 160: Hexi Corridor!
As thousands of geists scrambled to escape from the water. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Dense black spots of movement appeared all around, and a large group of things in the murky water swam rapidly and getting closer.
Bang.
The water crashed open, and the water splashed everywhere.
There's a pitch-black creature shooting out like an arrow!
It was a strange-looking fish, hideous and ugly, very narrow in size, with a tail like a snake's tail, and a large head, with round and large one-eyed eyes that shimmered with a strange light, and two small holes in its face, somewhat like a nose for breathing, and a mouth that was split into a semi-arc, in which were all Sen Sen's fangs.
The Fat Monster Bird exclaimed, "Quack! Soul Eater!"
As the name suggests, this strange fish feeds on spirits, and is said to be a creature from the Netherland, specializing in hunting wandering lonely ghosts, so it is also called the Stygian Fish. Because meat and vegetables are not eaten, they feed on the soul all year round, and they are full of treasures, if they are eaten as food, they are ideal tonics, which have the effect of calming the soul and improving their cultivation, and are also precious alchemy materials.
Soul Eaters are very rare.
This is the world's first-class tonic food!
The fat monster bird's eyes were shining, and saliva was about to fall on Qin Ge's face.
"In addition to the fact that this fish can feed on spirits, they also have a characteristic, as long as there is enough food to meet the consumption, the lifespan of the Soul Eater Fish can continue indefinitely, and the older the Soul Eater Fish, the more precious its value is!
The fat monster bird spoke for only a few seconds, and the fish kept jumping out of the river, and one by one the geists were sucked into the big nostrils, and then turned into spirit crystals in their mouths, and then they were chewed and swallowed, and in a short time, a large number of geists were destroyed.
Thousands of fish, chasing the wandering spirits all over the sky, is really a great spectacle!
The Fat Bird is right, the Soul Eater has enough food and an almost endless lifespan.
The Yellow River is a paradise for this creature, so the soul eater fish that appear here now are not only very numerous, each of them is fat and strong, and the average visual inspection has more than a few decades of heat, among which there are even a few hundred-year-old fish monsters, whose size is already comparable to that of a great white shark.
"Let's go!"
It's hard to say whether this fish is precious or not.
The fragile wooden boat in which several people were riding could not withstand the collision.
At this time, the situation has undergone a new change, the soul eater fish that was originally chasing the ghost, suddenly calmed down, and finally turned all the targets, locked on the moving wooden boat, and one missile after another collided with the wooden boat.
"What's going on?"
"Quack!" The fat bird felt the difference: "The Soul Eater Fish should not be interested in living creatures!"
Zhao Yun stepped on his right foot, rose from the deck, and landed at the stern of the boat.
A silver spear poured like mercury, and dozens of Soul Eaters were shot down one after another, but there was no way to stop them, and the group of fish pounced as if they were going crazy, not only crashing holes in the hull, but gnawing at the hull like tofu.
"Everyone, stand firm!" Zhang Qian hurriedly shouted: "The hull of the ship is starting to tilt! Don't fall into the water!"
Now the situation is very critical, there are too many fish attacking too fast, and Zhao Yun can't block them all. The boat had just sailed to the middle of the river, and it happened to be attacked by the soldiers halfway through, so it fell into the embarrassing situation of losing ground and retreating.
At the bottom of the Yellow River, there are countless demons and ghosts, once you fall into the water, it is unimaginable!
This is not a competition swimming, no matter how good the water is, it is useless here!
If the Yellow River is so well crossed, how can it become a dangerous place?
Faced with such an abnormal situation, Qin Ge immediately calmly activated the Tianyan to carry out on the river surface, and when he consumed more than a dozen points of luck, the situation of several kilometers of river water appeared in his field of vision, and he immediately found that under the fish, there was a huge figure lurking, and it was a big guy with a length of twenty or thirty meters.
"Zilong, there is a fish king, it is it that controls the fish!"
Zhao Yun picked up the silver spear in his hand with both hands, and suddenly slapped it heavily on the water.
A terrifying internal energy erupted, not only pushing the wooden boat forward more quickly, but also separating the surging river like a sharp blade, and a huge soul-eater fish really appeared at the bottom of the water, and when everyone saw this soul-eater fish, they couldn't help but show surprise.
"Quack! It turned out to be a guy who was about to turn into a Jiao! It seems that it is at least seven or eight hundred years of creation!"
This huge Soul Eater Fish is very different from ordinary Soul Eater Fish, and its more narrow body has features that belong to Jiaolong, so the Fat Monster Bird concluded that this fish is about to turn into a Jiaolong.
A ghost!
That's not surprising!
Qin Ge has the soul of a black dragon, and the Immortal Jiao is only a little short of completely turning into a dragon, so he feels the dragon soul breath on Qin Ge's body, and is attracted, as long as it can swallow Qin Ge's dragon soul, it may be able to completely turn into a dragon, so he ordered his own soldiers to attack.
The Stygian Jiao was exposed, and roared angrily, only to see its huge body, like a slingshot, ricocheting like a slingshot, and smashing the entire ship to pieces.
How could Zhao Yun watch the Stygian Jiao pose a threat to His Majesty?
"The demons are rampant!"
The right hand seemed to be an understatement, and the silver spear shot out with the finger, turning into a silver dragon and rushing into the water, and the water surface was broken again, piercing the invulnerable body of the Stygian Jiao on the spot.
The Stygian let out a hissing wail.
A large stream of dark blood quickly spread.
The Stygian Jiao has cultivated for hundreds of years and is quite intelligent, and it knows that it is invincible and decides to retreat temporarily. Zhao Yun would not let go of this scourge easily, jumped from the boat into the water of the Yellow River, protected his body with Confucian righteousness, and walked with his feet on the river Lingbo treading the waves, almost instantly chasing the fleeing Shenjiao, raising the silver spear with both hands and slashing at the body fiercely.
The inner strength of the warrior burst out, and the Confucian Haoqi Ning became one.
In the end, it turned into a huge silver blade, and split the Dark Jiao in half, even the fish king had been killed, and the other soul eaters immediately fled in panic, and the nearby wandering soul demons felt the Confucian righteousness, and they also began to flee in all directions.
"Well done Zilong, get it over quickly!"
Zhao Yun's spear was lightly picked, two sections of several tons of Jiaojiao corpses were thrown over, the big wave almost didn't overturn the wooden boat, Qin Ge didn't say a word to the corpse of the Stygian, and directly performed a spirit snatching, the corpse of the Immortal Jiao quickly shriveled and shriveled, and finally shattered like a mud puppet, and several items floated out of the corpse, and finally condensed and formed in Qin Singer.
Zhang Qian held on to a piece of wood pulp and shouted: "The boat is seriously seeping, we must speed up!"
Zhao Yun returned to the boat and poked out a back horse gun, the river exploded dozens of meters again, and there was a huge and incomparable reaction force, which immediately pushed the crumbling ship towards the opposite bank, and it took about a quarter of an hour to reach the west bank, and when the feet of several people stepped on the land again, they finally breathed a long sigh of relief in their hearts.
Qin Ge wiped his sweat: "I didn't expect it to be so difficult to cross the river." ”
"It's relatively narrow and slow, so it's an area that is relatively easy to cross. After Zhang Qian finished speaking, he said with admiration on Zhao Yun's face: "This friend is strong in martial arts and rare in the world, Zhang Qian is really admired by the five-body casting!"
Zhao Yun said humbly: "It's over." ”
"Quack, we finally came to Hexi?"
According to historical development, more than a hundred years later, during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Huo Quai, the god of war of the Han Dynasty, under the order of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, spent a total of several years to open up Hexi, and the most important and outstanding achievement of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was the successful digging of the Hexi Corridor.
Because the influence of the Hexi Corridor on the later generations of Chinese civilization is too far-reaching.
If Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had not broken through Hexi, how could the Tang Dynasty be strong and prestigious?
Qin Ge Cihai is standing on the land west of the river at this moment, now this is a strange foreign land for the Huaxia clan, no one knows what they will encounter here, at this time, the voice of the guardian spirit sounded.
"A+ Main Quest Activation: Jingluo Hexi!"
"Basic Reward: 1000 Luck!"
"Bonus: Unknown!"
There's a new quest for the main story!
There is no time limit for this quest, and there is no direct task penalty, but the faster you can complete the quest, the higher the final reward.
Even the base reward has 1000 luck points!
That alone is tempting enough, okay!
Qin Ge was determined to open up Hexi, and the appearance of this task not only did not cause the slightest pressure, but inspired a higher fighting spirit!
But then again, the difficulty of this kind of task is probably beyond imagination!
A hundred years after the development of China, when the strength of the Han Empire reached an unprecedented peak state after the accumulation of national strength under the rule of Wenjing, the powerful and decisive and radical Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and the amazing and brilliant Han God of War Huo Qubing appeared at this moment.
The time, place, and people were favorable, and it finally took several years to chisel through the Hexi Corridor!
Qin Ge was not without advantages, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had the Great Han God of War Huo Quai, and didn't Qin II also have the Great Qin God of War Bai Qi? He didn't send Bai Qi to Guanzhong to deal with the princes, just hoping to use Bai Qi in Hexi.
The Great Qin Empire is now so weak that it is not of the same order of magnitude as it was during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, so there is no comparison at all. However, the corresponding Yueshi is also beginning to decline, and the current strength of Hexi's power is incomparable with the Xiongnu faced during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
A few people walked not far away.
The sound of horses' hooves sounded, and a nomadic army of hundreds of people quickly arrived, and Zhao Yun immediately became vigilant, this is no longer Huaxia, so he must be extremely careful.
When Zhang Qian saw the banner of the rangers, his eyes immediately lit up, he raised his hands to meet him, and muttered words that people couldn't understand, hundreds of tall horses stopped moving forward, and a leading bull warrior communicated with Zhang Qian in Yue's language for a while, Zhang Qian took out the prepared gift and sent it over, and the bull warrior accepted it unceremoniously.
"We were so lucky. Zhang Qian walked up to Qin II and explained: "These nomadic cavalry are from the War Song Tribe, and they are the largest subordinate tribe of the Prophet Tribe that we are looking for, I have explained the situation to these rangers, and then as long as we follow these Yueshi people, we can avoid a lot of trouble and go directly to the Prophet Tribe." ”
Zhang Qian got it done in just a few words?
This guy is really familiar with Hexi, and it is really a wise choice to let Zhang Qian be the ambassador of the Western Regions!
