Chapter 17 Determination
"... Jade Ring?" Mr. Huang frowned and turned his eyes to his head at his feet.
Mr. Zhang Cheng came back in the morning, much earlier than he expected. Moreover, he couldn't believe it, and he really retrieved the head of the Quanrong scout.
This dog's head is extraordinary. Without closer inspection, he could immediately judge from the white and neat hair on the dog's head. This is the Quanrong scout. Ordinary Quanrong is dirty and smelly, and the fur is dirty, but their scouts also know how to keep it clean and tidy (the smell is too strong and easy to be discovered). Therefore, this Quanrong is far more dangerous than his kind.
Of course, the most dangerous thing is their leader, the witches of the Quanrong. Doctor Kunwu was actually injured by these witches in a fierce battle. Although it was not a big deal, this itself shows the danger of these witches of the Quanrong.
Doctor Kunwu has long offered a reward of Quanrong's heads. Some warriors killed Quanrong privately and rewarded them heavily. For example, this dog head is worth 10 Zhonghu. And those ordinary Quanrong's heads only have one Zhonghu.
However, this dog's head was particularly unusual because he actually carried a jade ring with him, a ring that stored the power of healing.
Just like everyone knows, among the Quanrong, it is also of a strict level. Fools understand the value of a healing ring in battle, so this kind of thing will never fall into the hands of the subordinate Quanrong.
"What is this thing?" Zhang Cheng couldn't help asking. There was magic power flowing around the ring, but he didn't know about this thing.
"Don't Mr. Zhang Cheng know?" Mr. Huang was quite strange. The jade ring is a common thing... Well, after all, You Shi was born, so he might not have a chance to see these good things. So he briefly introduced that this thing is the jade ring, which stores the power of healing.
Ordinary transactions are used in "Bei", but when trading in real high-end, these items are usually used as currency.
However, this jade ring has been used once, and a little crack has appeared. Huang Gong estimated that it would be scrapped after it could be used three or four times. Therefore, its value is one level lower than the complete jade ring. Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sigh a few words. Quanrong captured Haojing, which means that a large number of treasures collected by Zhou Shi had fallen into their hands. This is probably the same with this jade ring - Quanrong's simple production capacity could not create such high-end things.
The way to use this thing is also very simple. It only requires some water and high pressure to stimulate it. Usually, press it hard on the bleeding wound and directly stimulate it with the blood. Of course, if you want to treat the bruises, it is okay to use ordinary water or saliva.
He returned the jade ring to Zhang Cheng and picked up the clay ball.
After knowing that this Quanrong might have a good identity, Mr. Huang attached great importance to this matter. He looked at it in detail, and then slowly cut off the soil on the surface of the block with his hands. Soon, the soil scattered, revealing a bamboo slip inside. He picked up the thing and looked at it, and his face changed instantly.
"#%¥*," Mr. Huang let out a curse that was obviously not universal, even the translator could not translate smoothly. "Quinrong is hateful! He actually wants to collude with Shanrong!"
"Shanrong?" Zhang Chengke didn't understand what that was at all.
"Hateful and hateful!" Huang Gong was furious. "Sure enough... I felt that there must be a conspiracy if the Quanrong entrenched in Haojing without advancing or retreating!" He paced back and forth in the room. "This matter should be reported immediately by Doctor Kunwu... I'm afraid I need to warn everyone immediately..."
His face was gloomy and gloomy. "Young Master Zhang Cheng, you have made great contributions this time. This Quanrong is probably not just a scout, but also a messenger... No, it should be a messenger!"
My original duty was to send a message and go to reconnaissance. Unexpectedly, it was because of the "stop" work that I lost my life. This was really Tianyou Zongzhou! Once the messenger died, the collusion between Shanrong could be delayed for at least a period of time.
"Is this... a letter?" Zhang Cheng looked at the broken soil on the ground and felt ridiculous.
"Write the bamboo slips well," Huang Gong has already calmed down, so he still has time to teach Zhang Cheng common sense. "Seal it with mud, stamp it on it, and then roast the soil dry and hard. In this way, the content of the letter will not be known."
Looking at Zhang Cheng's confused look on his face - it's not that Zhang Cheng was confused. There was no trace of stamping on the mud, and it was too soft and easy to fall off - he continued to explain. "Qiurong was ignorant, so he knew the details of the roasting and hardness, and he could dry it casually, so the mud seal of the secret letter was soft and easy to fall off."
So that's the case. Zhang Cheng finally understood. In short, the barbaric race didn't know anything and painted a tiger and became a dog. A pretty good way to write secret letters was tortured by them and they made a joke.
Mr. Huang opened the second secret letter at this time. Although he was much calmer this time, his face still changed slightly.
"Sure enough... Quanrong wants to collude with Huaiyi... and attack Huaiyi, it is urgent!"
A short time later, Doctor Kunwu's face appeared in front of Mr. Huang through Xuangui. It was of great importance. Mr. Huang immediately said in detail what happened today. In particular, he emphasized the content of the letter intercepted by Zhang Cheng.
Even Doctor Kunwu's expression could not help but change.
"I received the news that the Quanrong was attacking Xu Kingdom, and Xu Kingdom asked for help everywhere, and the Zheng army was also fighting with the Quanrong unit, and the Duke of Lu had already led his troops to help, and was halfway..." He thought for a moment, "The soldiers of the princes were arriving one after another... But..."
He did not say the following half, but Huang Gongxin knew it very well.
"The matter is more important to attack Huaiyi at the moment." Although the incident of Quanrong colluding with Huaiyi was expected, it was still a serious matter if it really happened. "The Huaiyi must be destroyed before the Western doctors come to help!"
"Then... let Mr. Zhang Cheng go to attack immediately?" Mr. Huang asked quickly.
"Not good, there are too few left in Kunwu City," said Xuangui, a voice inserted into it. "If all the garrison troops are launched, then the city will be too empty. A small stream of Quanrong can cause a great threat..."
Doctor Kunwu did not refute and agreed to Qian's words. Mr. Huang could only sigh. In more than ten days, Zhang Cheng would never be able to complete the important task of extermination of Huaiyi. If he was too anxious, he would even pay him if he was not careful.
After Hyun-gyu's call ended, he turned around outside. As the highest person left behind, several soldiers on duty saluted him.
"Where has Mr. Zhang Cheng... gone?"
"Ah...he..." Several soldiers looked at each other. "That...he..."
"What's wrong?"
"I said I'm going to help clean up the wild dogs that eat rotten corpses."
"Correction? Wild dog?"
"Yes, the doctor fought with those Quanrongs before...the Quanrongs killed." After saying this, Huang Gong remembered. Many Quanrongs attacked after taking advantage of the victory, but were hit by the prepared Doctor Kunwu, killing hundreds of them, and a small Jingguan piled up on his head. Because he didn't have much time to deal with the corpses, he was too lazy to dig a pit and buried them, and threw the headless corpse into an abandoned ditch next to him. He heard that wild dogs were appearing in the past few days and were eating rotten corpses. However, this was indeed a trivial matter. Although Huang Gong knew it, he really didn't pay much attention. He gave a few instructions and asked the people below to recruit volunteers to deal with the wild dogs.
"Is the wild dog so serious?"
"It is said that wild dogs have approached the camp at night, and many people feel very uneasy." The soldiers reported honestly. The wild dogs have found the food source, and it is too late to bury the corpse. Even if they buried the corpse, they will dig out and eat it. "Some people say that wild dogs are used to eating corpses, and may dig out the tombs, damage their ancestors, and may even attack children and the elderly."
This kind of thing doesn't seem like a job that should be left to scholars to do. Huang Gong really thinks Zhang Cheng is a little too enthusiastic. What's the point of cleaning up a few wild dogs? I'll find a few common people and take a bow and arrow to solve it easily.
...
"Fixed it!" Zhang Cheng looked at the killed wild dog. This wild dog is completely different from the wolf he encountered in the morning. The wolf was tall and strong, and his head height almost reached the waist of a person when he was on all fours. If his legs stood up, the height would not be shorter than that of a human. In the size of the earth, it was about the same size as a Tibetan mastiff. These wild dogs were at most husky. These animals were brown and black, short-haired, red, and had red eyes, but were skinny and weak in combat.
But the trouble is that these wild dogs do not have a firm determination to fight. They run away when they see people one-on-one. Even if they have a clear advantage in number, for example, five or six wild dogs against a person, as long as they are killed one companion, the rest will immediately scatter. So it is almost impossible to catch everything in one go.
Zhang Cheng has dealt with three waves of wild dogs - the entire battle process is very similar: the number is less than three, and the wild dogs dare not approach him when they see him. After the number reaches five or six, the wild dogs will take the initiative to surround him, making a throat snoring, as if they want to drive him away. If he doesn't leave, there will be a battle breaking out - and then after he kills a wild dog, the rest will run away like a wind.
Even if you take this kind of wild dog back as prey, no one wants it? You should just abandon it in the wild like this.
In a farther place, it was in the ditch, and the strong smell of rottenness rose into the sky.
Zhang Cheng is really glad that he did not follow the experience of the Quanrong game. If everything goes as far as the game is concerned, then in order to save money, ninety percent of him needs to look for the inferior long sword embedded in the bones of the zombie in the corpse hook. He feels nauseous when he thinks that he has to pick things up among the rotten corpses.
However, these wild dogs... are already five wild dogs. As expected, killing wild dogs can get experience values. A wild dog has not much experience value, only 15 points, but with the previous battles, he has already collected enough experience values. The Death Warrior profession can be upgraded to a level one - the two professions actually require different experience values, and the experience values are said to be evenly distributed, but in fact there is still a slight difference. In the panel, the upgrade button option has appeared.
He clicked to upgrade, and sure enough, a series of warrior's specialties popped up on the panel. He had long been familiar with what warrior's specialties to choose, and immediately chose an important "Slaying with the flow".
Take the opportunity to kill an enemy with one blow, you can take the opportunity to attack the next enemy.
After upgrading, I clearly saw that my health value increased, and at the same time, there was an "Slaying with the flow" in the expertise and talent bar. I didn't feel anything other than that.
In the game, slashing with the trend means slashing with the trend. After mastering it, the battle can be played out immediately. But in reality, nothing seems to happen. The health value is also increased for no reason. Zhang Cheng did not have any special feeling. This is completely different from when he was in office. At that time, he learned a skill in reality and only displayed on the panel.
The "upgrade" of the panel seems to have nothing directly to do with reality. At least this seems to be the case with the warrior profession.
Zhang Cheng is still a little confused about whether the world is real. First of all, this panel is very unscientific, secondly, this experience value is very unscientific, and thirdly, the translator is also very unscientific.
With his experience of living on Earth for more than 20 years, plus the knowledge he has learned from China from kindergarten to university for many years, there is no logic or theory to support such inexplicable things.
Well, fortunately, time travel is also unscientific. With this "more unscientific" time travel ahead, other unscientific things seem less interesting.
It was night in a blink of an eye. Zhang Cheng thought, looking at the sunset in the sky. It was time to go back. He said that he only slept for a short time last night, and today he experienced many battles... but his body did not feel sleepy. Is this body too young, or is the intensity of these battles not high?
And... his battle today was so... simple. He easily crossed the psychological boundary that should have been quite difficult to cross. In a completely rational and sober situation, he had no excuses such as "self-defense". He used his own hands to seize more than one life.
Has I been assimilated by this world? Civilized people can only learn to be barbaric when they enter a barbaric society.
He asked himself a self-deprecating question, but suddenly he noticed something, so he stood up and looked up at the distance with his head in his arms.
Some ominous breath came from the wind, and black and brown figures emerged from behind the hillside in the distance. It was like a sunset scroll, with some disharmonious stains suddenly added.
Five...Ten...Fifteen...Twenty...Twenty...More than twenty wild dogs appear from the hillside.
These beasts lined up silently on the hillside and stared at this side for a while. Then, they began to walk down the hillside and walked towards this side in a small step unique to dogs.
