Real Cthulhu Running Game

  Chapter 2102 Han Yu Crocodile

  After listening to Miao Fei's words, Liu Xing knew that he didn't know why Wangjiacun existed, but this was normal, after all, Wangjiacun didn't want outsiders to know its situation.

"By the way, I remember that when I first came to Feicheng, I heard that the Wangjia Village was considered to be full of martial arts, and they beat up a group of bandits who coveted them without any power to fight back! You must know that in Feicheng Around, the only suitable place for those bandits to set up camp is the Wangjia Village where we are now, so there are often some unscrupulous guys who want to become bandits here, and then they are sent to Feicheng by Wangjia Village We dug Feihu Lake."

Miao Fei said with a smile: "This Lake Fei is also very interesting, because there are many flat lands around Feicheng, so it is suitable for growing food. This is the reason why Feicheng exists. To put it bluntly, a group of people come here to farm. Therefore, Feicheng has always been a small place rich in food; as a result, as more and more farmland near Feicheng, the surrounding water sources are not enough , because the nearest river is one kilometer away from Feicheng, so when there are few people, the water problem is solved by digging wells.”

"So more than ten years ago, Feicheng realized that the well water was not enough. This would not only lead to drought in the farmland, but even people began to have trouble drinking water, so the prefect at that time decided to dig a Feihu Lake for use. Water storage, so that the water problem of Feicheng can be solved; Ever since, Feihu started from a mud pit outside the city and became a man-made lake bigger than Feicheng, and those who are responsible for continuing to excavate Feihu Long-eyed bandits and bandits, and some less-sighted Liangshang gentlemen! Recently, I caught a little thief who claimed to be from the Miaoshou Kongkong sect, but this guy's skills may not be as good as mine."

  Smart hand empty empty door?

Hearing what Miao Fei said, Liu Xing subconsciously thought of a player in the league—Guan En. He is a member of Miaoshoukongkongmen, and his professional skills are still entry-level, but Ye should not be as Miao Fei said. So unbearable.

  However, in the game hall of the Cthulhu Running Group, the player's ability also highlights a "strength is unknown, if you meet the strong, you will be strong"! Because of the existence of judgments, no matter how powerful the players are on paper, they may make all kinds of outrageous mistakes. It's like when you Kun brother sang "Ji Ni is too beautiful", you can pronounce "" Just because you're so beautiful"?

In the face of powerful enemies, the existence of judgment can also allow players to make some extraordinary performances. For example, when facing the old masters, NPCs can't make any moves, and players can still pass through a big game. A successful judgment, with a very outrageous action to give the Old One a big mouth.

  So even if Guan En's professional skills have reached the level of a master, he may suddenly become dizzy when facing Miao Fei, and the money bag in his hand will fall to the ground.

   But having said that, Liu Xing remembers that Guan En is unlikely to be in Feicheng at this time, right? After all, a small place like Feicheng is not suitable for him to play.

"Fei Lake, I remember that I went to take a look when I came to Fei City last time. This area is indeed quite large, and you can also go boating on the lake... But Fei Lake is still a pool of stagnant water after all, so it is near the lake. It was okay when I was in the lake, but it was a bit irritating when I got to the lake." Yu Lei complained.

"Oh, that was a few years ago. Now Feihu Lake has dug a channel to connect the nearby river, and then connected to the nearby farmland, so now the water quality of Feihu Lake is much better than before. Brother Yunhe and others you are looking for sometimes perform on Feihu Lake." Miao Fei said with a smile.

   "Then we have to take a look tomorrow."

Yu Lei looked at the sky, and said: "But we should prepare dinner first, and then have a good rest for the night. After dawn tomorrow, we can catch this poisonous liger by surprise; but having said that, Alright, brother Miao, have you found any other monsters near Fei City in recent years, or the trace of this poisonous liger?"

"No? In the few years since I came to Feicheng, I have never heard of any information about monsters! You must know that in a small place like Feicheng, any news can be obtained in just half a day." Everyone in the rumors knows it, let alone such a major event as the presence of monsters; and the city of Fei is surrounded by large flat farmland, which must not be able to hide the poisonous ligers, and I have never heard of that The livestock in the village will disappear inexplicably," Miao Fei said with certainty.

Hearing what Miao Fei said, Yu Lei's expression became strange, "That's a little bit wrong, because I found that this stinging liger probably came from the direction of Feicheng, rather than aiming at it. I went to Feicheng!"

"Huh? This is impossible, right? Although I usually stay in Feicheng, I also pay attention to the news outside the city, because my wife's restaurant has business contacts with many villages outside the city, so every day Dealing with people who come to deliver goods... After all, Feicheng is still too small, and it is far away from the surrounding cities, so it can be said that our Wutai may not be dispatched once a year, and today is my In the past few years since I came to Feicheng, it is the second time that I have taken the whole team out of the city to perform a mission."

Miao Fei sighed, and complained: "As for the last mission out of the city, to put it bluntly, it was an oolong, because although Feicheng is not a big place, it is self-sufficient enough, so many people spend their whole lives There is no contact with the outside world, so someone brought back a crocodile from outside, and then it was mistaken for a monster."

Crocodile?

Speaking of crocodiles, Liu Xing remembered that when he was in college, a person in the dormitory next door raised a crocodile, but he thought he was raising a crocodile that didn't grow up, but it didn't take long before he realized something was wrong, because The reminder of this crocodile is that it is going up slowly, so I decisively sent this crocodile to the zoo.

  Before that, Liu Xing also went to the dormitory next door to join in the fun, had a friendly interaction with the little crocodile, and was almost bitten. . .

   "Crocodiles? Are you talking about alligators? I remember that there were a few alligators raised in the third prince's mansion. They are actually quite cute and cute." Yu Lei said with a smile.

"No, no, this is not a Chinese alligator! When the Third Prince was raising Chinese alligators, many people in Liangcheng also followed suit, so I can still recognize Chinese alligators now; and the one near Feicheng The crocodile that was discovered was more than two meters long, and it looked much more vicious than the Chinese alligator, so I reckoned that this crocodile must have come from somewhere else."

Miao Fei sat on the steps and continued: "Such a big crocodile can already sneak up on cattle and sheep passing by the river, and even pose a threat to passers-by, so we made a decisive move and turned it into a grilled crocodile. The taste is actually quite good, and the crocodile skin is also good for leather armor; later we also found the guy who brought the crocodile back to Feicheng. He actually heard that the third prince raised alligators, so he bought them from others. I came to this crocodile, but it turned out that this crocodile grew too fast. Before returning to Feicheng, it was already more than two meters long, so I simply threw this crocodile by the river, and then there were so many troubles. matter."

"Selling crocodiles? I remember that the nearest place to sell crocodiles is Swamp City, right? There are swamps and quagmires everywhere near Swamp City, so there are many crocodiles living there, and alligators are the main ones. But there are also some other crocodiles mixed in." Yu Lei said.

"That's right, it's Swamp City! If I hadn't met my current wife, I might have gone to Swamp City to become a swamp merchant, because besides crocodiles, there are small animals like giant pythons in Swamp City." , and the leather they produce is quite valuable, not to mention there are many valuable medicinal herbs in the swamp."

Hearing this, Liu Xing frowned again, because this crocodile grew too fast, and it seemed that it was still in the growth stage before it was turned into a grilled fish. After all, when this person bought the crocodile, this The only crocodile should be a small crocodile less than half a meter long, otherwise he wouldn't be deceived.

   But this is not the point, the point is that Swamp City is less than two months away from Boyang City! And this is the speed of a fully loaded caravan!

  That's right, as Miao Fei said, there are many valuable wild herbs near the swamp city, so there is a big medicinal material market outside the city! Therefore, Liu Nan often asks someone to bring back some medicinal materials from Swamp City, or go to a familiar pharmacy in Boyang City to get the medicine, so although "Liu Peng" has never been to Swamp City, he doesn't even know the approximate location of Swamp City , but I can also know that it takes less than two months from Swamp City to Boyang City, and it will be faster if it is a personal trip.

Therefore, no matter how you calculate it, it should not take more than two months for the person who bought the crocodile to return to Feicheng from Swamp City. As a result, in these two months, a small crocodile less than half a meter long turned into a crocodile. It became a two-meter-long crocodile, which made Liu Xing wonder if this crocodile could live in the wild for a while, wouldn't it turn into a five-meter-long prehistoric giant crocodile? !

   So is this a meme?

Liu Xing remembers an urban legend on the other side of the ocean, that is, many local people like to keep crocodiles, because such unique pets will make them look very cool, but when these crocodiles start to grow up, they think it is not so cool , and it also threatened their lives, so I decided to throw the crocodile away.

However, because they also showed off their crocodiles before, it would be easy to be discovered if they just threw them out. If they were found to be their own crocodiles, it would be a bit embarrassing, so these people simply put The crocodile was thrown into the sewer so that no one could discover his secret.

   Then, the local sewers are full of crocodiles, and of course there are many large crocodiles running around on the surface. . .

   "By the way, is the prefect of Fei City still Han He?"

Yu Lei wiped the sweat off his brow, and continued: "Prefect Han's ability is quite good, but he is not very good at interpersonal communication, so the third prince also used him to work in Liangcheng before, but he offended him not long after. Most of the colleagues around him were killed, so they could only be sent back to Feicheng to continue as the prefect."

"Yeah, Prefect Han is indeed a good prefect. It is his credit that Feicheng has the current situation, but Prefect Han is really not good at communicating with others, so I respect him very much now, but if possible, I will Hope I don't see him all year long."

Miao Fei said seriously: "The last time I met with Taishou Han, he talked about it for more than an hour, and the words were also full of guns and sticks, which made me depressed for a long time when I went back; but his son is quite good. He is much better at dealing with people than his father, so now Mr. Han Yu Han is in charge of receiving guests in the Han family."

  Han Yu? !

   Liu Xing, who was listening to the story at the side, was startled, because Han Yu was one of the eight great masters in Tang and Song Dynasties, and he was compared with Liu Zongyuan, Wang Anshi and others, which shows how powerful he is.

And Liu Xing, as a fan of online novels, has naturally read some time-travel novels related to the Tang Dynasty, and learned a lot of cold knowledge from them. For example, there are more than 300 idioms related to Han Yu. He is a well-known literary master, so he is very good at refining a piece of text to achieve the purpose of conciseness, so many idioms were born.

  But another cold knowledge related to Han Yu is the crocodile just mentioned!

When it comes to the crocodiles in China, the only thing you can think of is the alligator, because in addition to all kinds of farmed crocodiles in China today, there are only a few kinds of crocodiles such as the alligator, and the number is not too large. After all, the crocodile As a cold-blooded animal, the temperature requirements for the habitat are very high, and the Little Ice Age that has appeared in the last few hundred years has further compressed the living space of crocodiles.

  But in the Tang Dynasty, the climate was relatively warm, so there were crocodiles everywhere, including many large crocodiles, including the extinct Hanyu crocodile!

The reason why Han Yu crocodile is called this name is naturally related to Han Yu. At that time, Han Yu happened to be the governor of Chaozhou and found crocodiles in the nearby river, so he wrote an article about crocodiles, so these crocodiles were called For Han Yu crocodile.

  According to relevant records, the Hanyu crocodile is a large crocodile with a body length of about six meters! This was a terrifying existence for the ancients, so Han Yu's article can only "reason" with these crocodiles, so that they will not attack nearby livestock and humans, and it is best to leave the area if possible.
