Chapter 166: The Origin
Hong Fan reduced his wings, flew down in the air, and landed on the side of the city tower.
The sand wing took the initiative to deconstruct and disperse into Amano along the north wind.
Hong Fan rushed forward a few steps, easily dissipating his speed of forty kilometers per hour.
Then, he was held by Liao Zhenghao, who came up.
"It's back!"
"It's not even an hour, but it feels like it's been longer than the usual half a day......"
After a few short words of emotion, everyone hugged Hong Fan and went down the city tower.
The situation is tense, Zheng Zhun, Gongsun Shi and others have a lot of affairs piled up, and they can't wait in the city all the time.
A quarter of an hour later, the city guarded the palace.
Including Hong Jian, all the high-level leaders of Gimhae gathered.
"The number of snake men is five thousand five hundred to six thousand."
Hong Fan stood alone in the hall and reported.
"The two lords will be the five priests, and the rest will have about nine four priests."
The atmosphere was suddenly serious.
The combat power of the five sacrificial snake people is at least at the innate level, and after losing Li Heming, Jin Hai is only Hong Jian.
"The snake people quickly discovered me, and then the two snake people will strike one after another."
Hong Beom continued.
"The iron spear thrown by the leader shot more than six hundred meters high."
"The other's stone spear shot four hundred meters high."
"I estimate that the speed of the two sides is 270 meters per second and 200 meters per second respectively."
His expression this time adopted the unit system that has not been popularized for a long time.
One meter is three feet, and one second is one thousand, two hundredths of a twelfth day (an hour).
In terms of practical operation, the length of the original instrument for manufacturing and distribution is determined by the Shenjing ware.
One second is defined based on a single pendulum oscillation period of 0.2482 meters.
Compared to later generations, this system is not precise enough, but it is basic enough to use.
(Weights and measures are consistent with modern times, so let's take it as a coincidence.) Without this thing, it is difficult to describe many things just by relying on the imaginary fingers of 'snapping fingers', 'blinking', and 'tea', and it is pointless to forcibly make up another set...... )
The height and speed in Hong Fan's mouth can be known when you hear it, but the rest of you are more stunned, and you need to calculate it in your heart.
"Throw the iron spear two hundred feet high, hiss......"
Liao Zhenghao tugged at his beard and stopped talking.
This exceeded the realm of heaven and man sympathy so much that it was difficult for him to assess.
In the end, it was Hong Jian who spoke.
"Both of them are still in the innate realm, the strong one should be similar to me, and the weak one is about the innate two."
Everyone's faces softened slightly.
When the Red Stack Mountain, the innate high-level Hong Jian was able to destroy Wan Guangji with one blow.
But in the face of low-level innate nature, the sympathetic realm of heaven and man can still match a few rounds.
If you are outnumbered, it is not completely impossible to win.
"In addition, they are very different from us."
Hong Fan spoke again.
"The penetration rate of iron tools is very low, and only a few are equipped with armor and use metal weapons."
"The snake people at the bottom use stone tools and bone tools, and I watched from afar and found that the shape is very exquisite."
"They are generally equipped with shields, which are long and narrow ovals, which can be carried on their backs without affecting their movements."
He recalled carefully.
"Oh, yes."
"I noticed that the snake people didn't seem to be carrying much baggage."
These "discoveries" of Hong Fan are experiences for most of you here.
"The snake man's shield is somewhat famous, because of its similar shape, we call it the snake eye shield here."
Hongwu replied.
"The skeleton is made of a marsh banyan, and the wood is harder than ordinary vines, but just as strong."
"The outside of the shield is covered with a double layer of leather, and then glued with snake scales, and the defensive effect is no weaker than our steel shield."
Then, Gongsun Shi took over the topic.
"Snake people have never needed to be burdened."
"In the absence of strenuous activity, the consumption of these reptiles is extremely low, and one meal and drink is enough to sustain more than ten years."
"Before leaving the marsh, they only need to drink enough water every day, even if the sand sea is fumigated during the day."
He spoke in a cold voice.
"As for the meat after going south, in the eyes of the other generation, our Jinhai City can be said to be full of ......"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere couldn't help but be weird.
Several civil officials stood up their hairs and shuddered.
"Many of you haven't seen a snake man attack a city."
Seeing this, Liao Zhenghao laughed roughly.
"They don't use siege engines, and their tactics are straightforward."
"However, he was born with sharp minions, if no one intercepts him, the four-foot high wall will climb up in a blink of an eye!"
"In the eyes of the snake people, there is no difference between war and hunting—I have seen people who can't help but swallow a few stumps on the spot to fill their stomachs."
He caught a glimpse of Ren Yuanlong's pale face, and he deliberately spoke vividly.
"Swallow it."
Wen Zhongguan leaned back in his chair and chuckled.
"The soul has gone down to the Nine Springs, how can I care where the skin goes?"
"We also peel snake skins and eat snake gall bladders, and we just exchange courtesies."
Liao Zhenghao was not annoyed when he heard this, but laughed: "Haha, it is exactly what Master Wen said!" ”
The laughter must be gone.
Hong Fan asked.
"Speaking of which, the snake people have been fighting our people for more than a thousand years."
"I've been exposed to it for so long, and I haven't made any progress in armaments?"
He knew that the snake people had sacrifices and would trade ritual weapons with humans.
This is obviously enough to be called civilized.
But the two tribes have been adjacent for dozens of generations, and the snake people can't even imitate bows and arrows and trebuchets, which is incomprehensible.
"It's not that the snake people are stupid."
Gongsun Shi replied.
"They don't bother to pick up our Terran teeth."
Hong Fan raised his eyebrows: "Disdainful? ”
"Yes, the snake people are stubborn."
Gongsun Shi nodded.
"They firmly believe that the limit of living beings should be self-sufficient."
"Therefore, all mysteries already exist in their own flesh and blood, and the stronger they are, the less likely they are to fake foreign objects."
In the past, every time Hong Fan saw Gongsun Wujian talking about snake people, he either hated or mocked.
But this time, the latter tone was cautious.
Outside the window, the sky was dark, and the candles were flickering indoors.
The hall was a little solemn for a while.
"That's weird."
Hong Fan Lang laughed.
"The words 'limit' and 'mystery' are too vague for me to beak."
"But the truth that you must first sharpen your tools to do a good job is straightforward."
"The snake people always have to admit that Dahua is much stronger than them, right?"
Liao Zhenghao shook his head.
"I used to serve in the army in the guard, and it's not that I haven't seen a captured snake man."
He said.
"They don't think that our Terran is weak individually, and it's just that we have a large population."
"The population is large and depends on the land for its livelihood."
Hong Fan opened his mouth and replied.
"The land in the world that my Dahua occupies, can't it still be given away by foreign races?"
He retorted without thinking.
"Ah, why didn't I think of that?"
Such domineering words, but Liao Zhenghao's heart was very good, and let him slap his thigh.
Hong Fan was not exhausted and continued to speak.
"Furthermore, under the pretense of foreign objects, there must be at least a definition of the concept of 'foreign objects', right?"
"Not to mention the sword and armor, the martial arts enter the qi realm, and it is necessary to attract the aura of heaven and earth, is it considered a fake foreign object?"
He is rarely unforgiving.
"It is said that snake people focus on the flesh, don't blood sacrifices need sacrifices?"
Gongsun Shi was a little speechless.
"Of course you have a point."
After a moment, Wen Zhongguan replied softly.
"But everything the snake man thinks and does has a source."
"It is said that the nine snake gods eat the nine mountains, live a long life, and the power is terrifying."
"The way of the serpent man is from His ......"
When it comes to alien gods, the ashram is inexplicably solemn.
It was as if there were layers of drapery invisible to the naked eye, hanging from nothingness.
Everyone tacitly agreed.
The second is a human being, and Hong Fan has never been a strong character.
But only at this time, he felt a choking in his throat, and he was unwilling to stop talking no matter what.
"The Nine Serpent Gods should have seen farther than mortals."
"I'm not in a position to share it with Him."
Hong Fan walked to the door and looked up at the blazing white light filtered by the clouds.
"But the martial arts are taught by the ancestral dragon himself."
"Ancestral Dragon, you must be able to see farther than the snake god!"
The voice is not loud, but the words are clear.
The front of the hall was still quiet, but everyone suddenly felt that their hearts were flickering, and they were all relaxed.
