Chapter 267: Local tyrants

The snow is sunny in winter, and the business travel outside Hengyang City is like a shuttle. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

There is only a month before the New Year, and the traveling merchants are busy making their last trip to the far house, and the wanderers who have traveled far away have begun their journey home.

With the demise of the Corpse Demon Clan, once the Winter Expedition that lasted for thousands of years was canceled, the people of Great Chu were a little at a loss.

But to be able not to go to the front to fight. Most people were still elated. Except for a few militants, and even more a small number of generals who want to make a difference.

Originally, compared to fighting with the corpse demon clan on the front line of the Trapped Tiger Mountain, going to the western Gobi to conquer the city and expand the territory was definitely a more hopeful choice for meritorious service.

Helplessly, since the mummy made a fuss, and a large wave of fortresses rose from the ground, "suddenly like a night of spring breeze, thousands of pear blossoms bloomed". All of a sudden, the forces on the offensive side found that the cost of attack was much greater than that of defense.

Coupled with the news coming from the depths of the Jedi, it is clear that the Terran war will only make the mummified race bigger and bigger. The forces of the western Gobi have unexpectedly reached a delicate balance of power at such a rapid pace.

Among the three emerging cities of "Loulai", "Jingjue" and "Dunhuang" in the west, the Great Chu army was strong and strong, but there were few opportunities to attack. Let the military complain about the "Xilai Group" and the mysterious Mr. Wen.

Regardless of the attitude of the military, for the people of Dachu, this is a good era of peace in the world. Even the business travelers who trekked hard had happy expressions on their faces.

In the evening, a golden-horned cloud-piercing beast galloped quickly on the western road.

This mid-level top demon beast is four meters long and two meters high, its body is covered with white scales with cloud dragon patterns, and its head is shaped like a deer, but it has a golden horn nearly a meter long in the middle of the bridge of its nose.

The Cloud Piercing Beast is the fastest of the few demon beasts that the Terrans can tame, and with its relatively gentle temperament, it is the best mount, but there are not many of them and the price is expensive.

Among the cloud-piercing beasts, according to the variety, they are divided into three products: white horn, silver horn and golden horn. Like this golden-horned cloud-piercing beast, it can't be taken down without a million gold coins, and it is considered a top folk mount.

The golden horn wears the cloud beast, with gray hair and green shirts, it is Gu Wen.

That day, in the Tiger Prison Pass, under the leadership of the traveling merchant Mi Youduo, Gu Wen took out nearly half of the private money and bought this superb cloud-piercing beast named "Drifting Snow", in order to rush back to Duntou Village as soon as possible.

Although he has the natural ability to become a real person to fly, after all, he can only fly for 45 minutes a day, and there are many real people scattered in Dachu, so it is not a good thing to be rashly alarmed.

Therefore, you can only choose fast horses, no, fast beasts.

Gu Wen also once thought about buying a motorized airship. However, after learning the details of the motorized airship, Gu Wen gave up this plan.

Presumably, the more popular cumin mutton, the technical content of the motorized airship is undoubtedly much higher.

In fact, the cumin mutton skewers are not a corpse demon clan inheritance at all, but just a dish that Gu Wen often cooked for scholars to eat during his years of captivity.

Because the method is simple and the taste is not bad, I don't know which delicious scholar has popularized it.

In fact, the most eaten by scholars should be spiced chicken feet. They gnawed the remaining bones and turned them into a three-by-four-by-four cipher for delivering messages.

But because of the limited amount of information, despite the compression, scholars have to gnaw dozens or hundreds of chicken feet each time in order to deliver some more complex news.

So after returning to the Terran realm, no one was interested in chicken feet anymore, and even their families had to give special orders when they went to buy vegetables:

"As long as the chicken body, chicken head, chicken neck, chicken feet, chicken warp are all wanted. ”

And the motorized airship is actually not the inheritance of the corpse demon clan. It's a plaything from a low-tech crystal wall system conquered by the Necromancy.

Because the Necrons are usually slow to move, there is often an incongruity in their hands, feet, and bodies when they are first born. This airship is actually a toy for the little necromancer to exercise his physical coordination.

In order to study the method of repairing the time shuttle, the Terran scholars almost turned over the treasured materials of the corpse demon clan. The motorized airship, a thing like a great immortal martial sense, really attracted a lot of attention.

Therefore, after returning to the human race, a good deed person built a motorized airship, but he did not expect it to soon become popular in the upper class and become a luxury toy for rich and aristocratic young masters to compete with each other.

It's a pity that the knowledge inherited by the corpse demon clan itself is incomplete. Terran scholars understand the structure of motorized airships based on the Xianwu civilization, and the things they create are inevitably a bit nondescript.

There are actually two sets of core power for the current motorized airship, one is the "in-cylinder direct injection gasoline engine" embodied in the outside, and the other is the flight rune hidden inside.

The main power at normal speed is actually a flying rune, only in a short time of acceleration and racing, the gasoline engine will work, and because of the process problem, although the power is good, the energy consumption, noise, and pollution are very serious.

But for the middle two teenagers who urgently need to show their presence, the rumbling sound, the pungent smell of gasoline and the sudden explosion of high speed are just right for their high point. As for the engine burst, it was sprinkled with water.

Within two months, motorized airships became popular in the major cities of Dachu. When the secondary two teenagers meet, they no longer greet each other:

"Have you been tricked by your old bean today?"

And asked, "Did you blow up today?"

Therefore, Gu Wen quickly rejected the gelding's recommendation and stubbornly chose the traditional running beast.

For this reason, after Gu Wen left, the gelding also sighed:

"The old man is the old man, and he doesn't know how to keep pace with the times. Rich people with millions of gold coins to spare have already gone to buy a few motorized airships. One is on, one is standby, and one is left to listen to the cylinder. ”

But in fact, the traditional running beast still has a very advantage. In less than ten days, Gu Wen had crossed tens of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers and arrived at Hengyang, which was adjacent to Luoyang City.

Hometown was in sight, but Gu Wen subconsciously slowed down his pace.

Seeing that it was getting late, Gu Wen no longer planned to go around the city and continue to rush through the night, but was ready to go into the city to find an inn to rest for the night, and clean up by the way.

As a transportation hub in the hinterland of Dachu, Hengyang is very prosperous. Although it is not as magnificent as the capital and the quaint end of Luoyang, the city is wide and the roads are vertical and horizontal.

Under the city walls, there are warehouses and warehouses, where large quantities of goods are handled. Gu Wen even saw a newly erected gantry crane.

It seems that the knowledge that Terran scholars have learned in the Corpse Demon Race is fermenting in all aspects of the Terran Race. The absorption and application of this knowledge by the Terrans will lead to another leap in strength.

Of course, the corresponding social problems also arise at the same time.

A group of costumed airship teenagers roared towards them, causing people in the streets to roll on their backs.

Several teenagers noticed Gu Wen, drove the motorized airship over and flew around Gu Wen, and said with a smile:

"Yo, this is also a colleague in the fashion industry, and this 'grandpa gray' is really stylish. It's a pity that why are you still angry with the Cloud Beast?"

"What kind of cloud-piercing beast, this is the golden-horned cloud-piercing beast, and it sold for two million gold coins last year. That's enough to buy seven or eight airships. ”

"Yo, this is a real tyrant. Brother Tuhao, take my knees!"

The teenagers laughed and walked away, leaving a sky of gasoline smoke.

The golden-horned cloud-piercing beast snorted unhappily in the snow. As a noble mid-level top demon beast, Piaoxue also has self-esteem.

If it weren't for his gentle personality and long-term training, Piao Xue would definitely be able to pierce all the secondary two teenagers present, along with their tattered airships, into seventeen or eighteen holes within two breaths.

Gu Wen smiled bitterly, not because he was ridiculed by the second middle school boy, but because this "grandfather gray" touched his heart.

Since he was seriously injured in the battle with the corpse demon real person, it took nearly half a year to basically recover, but he was left with white hair and black skin. Gu Wen sometimes laughed at himself:

"The hero Yang is over thirty years old and has a white head, a white-haired witch is twenty years old and has a white head, and I have a hair like snow when I am nineteen years old, which is properly the setting of pig's feet. ”

"But according to the shape in the game, white hair and black skin are the template of the dark elves. I've heard that the dark elves live extremely inappropriate lives, is that a hint?"

"I don't know if I will be scolded to death by my mother if I run home with white hair. ”

However, after leaving the Western Gobi, the mummy reincarnation vessel given by the source of the soul pool began to take effect, and Gu Wen's juvenile white treatment could be regarded as a turnaround. (To be continued.) )
