Chapter 5 Du Kang
That night, Houhu brought Hong and Shaokang into the study, and the three of them discussed Shaokang's future way out. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Hou Hu looked at Hong and Shaokang in surprise for a long time before saying, "I didn't expect there to be such a miraculous elixir in the world." In this way, the people who are cold will not be able to notice it for a while. I don't know how we should settle Shaokang in the future?"
Hong pondered for a while and said, "First of all, the name Shaokang must not be used, so as not to make people suspicious. ”
Speaking of this, Hong looked up at Shaokang and asked, "Why don't you make up a name for yourself?"
Shaokang scratched his ears and cheeks after listening to Hong's words for a long time before he said, "Uncle, you asked me to make it up, how can I make it up?" Otherwise, don't think about it, since it is apocryphal, then my surname is Du Mingkang. In the future, you can call me Du Kang. Uncle, grandfather, what do you think?"
When Houhu heard Shaokang's words, he laughed, "Haha, you really want to save trouble." Du Kang, Du Kang, good, good name. I'll call you Du Kang from now on."
After Hong listened, his head was full of little stars. Is there any mistake about it, the name is actually Du Kang.
In another memory, Hong once heard a legend that Du Kang, the god of wine, was once an emperor. It won't be Shaokang. I don't know if this kid will make wine by then.
Shaokang finally settled on the name and called it Du Kang. The identity was also discussed by Hong and Houhu, that is, there was a child of a hunter in the country. Both parents have died, and now follow Hong to do things.
Shaokang's name and background have been determined, and Hou Hu then asked, "Hong, since you have your name and identity, what are your plans with Shaokang?"
Hong listened to his father's inquiry and quickly replied, "Father, this time I came here, mainly to let you see me and Shaokang, we will be reunited for a few days." Then I want to take Shaokang to see a long time and go out for a trip. ”
Hou Hu listened to Hong's words and nodded approvingly, "It's okay, traveling the world, your horizons will be broader." We have thrown the country too small after all. If I weren't the king, I'd love to go out with you both. Being a king is a heavy burden, and there are too many things to do. No, now that the position of Mu Zheng is vacant, I have a lot of headaches. ”
Muzheng is an official title in Great Xia. He is in charge of domestic animal husbandry on a full-time basis. Youtou is a country that is half-cultivated and half-livestock, and although Mu Zheng is not a high-ranking official with real power, there are many things to do.
When Hong heard this name, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind. The small is hidden in the city, and the big is hidden in the court. Could it be that this shepherd is a godsend.
Thinking of this, Hong hurriedly asked Houhu, "Father, I don't know what the requirements are for being this shepherd?"
As soon as Houhu heard Hong's question, he immediately understood what Hong meant: "You mean to let Shaokang fight for this position?"
Hong pondered again and again, felt that this path was feasible, and immediately said, "Yes, if Shaokang is allowed to be a Muzheng, it will be a triple win." First, it's dark under the lamp. Han Xun's people would never have thought that Shaokang would be an official in the country openly. This will protect the safety of Shaokang even more. Second, although Mu Zheng's official position is not large, he has many things to manage. You can exercise the ability to be less healthy in advance. Third, Mu Zheng's subordinates must have personal soldiers, and we can justifiably train private soldiers for Shaokang."
Houhu pondered carefully, "Yes, it's indeed a good idea." That way, you can kill multiple birds with one stone, and you will be able to stay with me and your Eminem. Usually, you and Eminem can also take a look at Shaokang's child. However, if you want to win the official position of Mu Zheng, if you don't have real skills, I will shoehorn it in, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction in the court, and in the end, it will be clumsy and clumsy."
Hou Hu then said, "Mu Zheng's biggest skill is to know how to tame fierce beasts, and other domestic farming and weaving work can be done with the help of a deputy." But this domesticated beast, neither you nor Shaokang know?"
Now the position of Mu Zheng has attracted the attention of all parties in the country, and the people who signed up are basically outstanding disciples of the family or people with profound backgrounds.
For example, Wu Yi, his younger brother participated in this selection, and they were preparing to domesticate a Gu eagle at this time. This Gu eagle has two wings on its back, two horns on its head, and tiger claws on its feet. He often came out to make trouble and mutilated the people, and there were no less than 100 people who were eaten by him. The end is a ferocious anomaly. This time, they were led by Wu Yi, united ten witches, and vowed to catch the Gu Eagle.
Another example is that Da Sima's son also participated in the selection, and Da Sima is preparing to tame a Zhu Ru for his son, which looks like a dog but not a dog, like a monkey but not a monkey. Although it doesn't have a lot of attack power, it's very cunning. Frequent sneak attacks on remote villages. As soon as he encounters someone more powerful than him, he runs away in advance.
Youguo once sent an army of 3,000 to capture this Xuanru, but it fled without even touching the hair. I heard that Da Sima bought a prescription with a lot of money this time, and he could make a medicine to lure Xuan Ru out. Da Sima is determined to win.
And the general's family is also eyeing this position.
In short, the fierce beasts in the country are basically divided up by the children of these families. The remaining beasts, even if Hong and Shaokang are domesticated, will not win the position of Mu Zheng at all
Hou Hu thought of the strong opponents above, and shook his head in embarrassment, it was difficult for Hong and Shaokang to stand out.
Hong heard that Houhu analyzed the situation, and suddenly felt troubled, but he still didn't give up, "Oh? There are still no beasts in the country that can be tamed? So father, have you heard of any kind of beast, as long as Shaokang and I can tame it, we will definitely have the ability to override the public opinion and sit on the position of Muzheng."
"Hiss", Hou Hu snorted lightly, "I really remember what you said, there is such a thing." Recently, there was a news circulating in the court that a divine beast appeared in the Lin family's country, and its name was the Beast. This beast has a huge body, a body more majestic than a tiger, and its body is covered with colorful patterns. The tail is longer than the body, and his limbs and tail are capable of fighting. Although it looks like a tiger, it is not ferocious at all. As long as you don't mess with it, it never harms the people. And the beast does not eat any living thing. The greatest strength of this beast is that it travels thousands of miles in a day. The speed is extremely fast, comparable to the great witch true immortal. If you have offspring with a horse, they are all BMWs that travel thousands of miles every day. One of the things that is this beast is that it does not eat living creatures, so you are not in danger. Second, by crossing with horses, the horses it gave birth to were all BMWs. They have surrendered to fierce beasts, but what you have provided is the necessary weapon for war, so it is precious. If you can subdue the beast, you must be undisputed and firmly sit in the position of shepherd. ”
"Then where is the Lin Clan?" Hong quickly asked.
"The Lin family is near Lishan. It's a long way from me throwing the country. It will also take about a month to speed up. There are still two months to go before the Muzheng selection ceremony. If you want to subdue the beast, you'll need to set off as soon as possible. ”
"Father, since that's the case, then I'll take Shaokang off tomorrow when I'm ready."
Since he had made up his mind to fight for the position of Muzheng, Hong settled Xiaofei in the Monarch's Mansion. Early the next morning, Hong and Shaokang immediately packed their bags and prepared to go.
When Houhu sent someone to report the roster of Shaokang to participate in the Muzheng selection ceremony, Hong had already taken Shaokang to speed up his horse all the way to the west and galloped away in the direction of Lishan.
