Hunter of the Forbidden Region Chapter 275: Swear not to give up
, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Hunter in the Forbidden Zone!
In the middle of the night, the Su Family Ancestral House was an old house, and it was at the foot of the mountain again. It was gloomy right now.
It is the season of cold spring, and the cold wind outside the window is blowing.
Cao Mian was not courageous since he was a child. When he was a child, at night, Cao Yusheng often frightened him with stories about various monsters.
Until one time a child was frightened and had a high fever for several days, Cao Yusheng felt distressed and never told this kind of story again.
Later, Cao Mian learned about the existence of Hunter Gate, and slowly discovered that the stories his father told him when he was a child were actually true.
They are all the things recorded in "The Collection of Foreign Objects in Kyushu", and my father only did a little artistic processing.
So now, seeing the state of Cao Yusheng's expression, Cao Mian was in a trance, as if he had returned to his childhood.
The feeling of anticipation and fear came to my mind unconsciously.
However, he is still grown up after all, Cao Mian squeezed the cigarette **** in his hand, pinched the cigarette out, and listened with respect.
"The prey that Lin Shuo and the others faced this time, if not surprising, should be the Dover Demon." Cao Yusheng's voice was very low, "Cao Mian, the name Dover Demon, do you think, listen? It looks strange?"
"Yeah." Cao Mian nodded. "Before, whether it was a hooked snake, a mountain king, or a white-headed flying corpse, the names of these strange creatures have obvious traditional Chinese elements. These things were first discovered and named by the Chinese.
The Dover Demon is a little weird.
From the structure of words, the word devil should determine the nature of this thing.
It is a kind of demon, in other words, it is understood as a kind of demon by those who know its existence.
But the term "devil" is a foreign term in itself, not native to China.
And "Dover" is even more strange. These two words should be attributives, used to modify, limit or explain the two words "devil".
But the Buddha and the devil, which are two religious systems in themselves, are difficult to mix together.
So I speculate that the word Dover may be transliterated.
When the name spread to China, it was pronounced like this, so it was recorded as these two characters. "
After listening to Cao Mian’s analysis, Cao Yusheng nodded: "The analysis is good.
The Dover Devil, the first time it appeared in our hunting gate records, was during the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty.
In the first few years of Datang Tianbao, it was the most prosperous period of the Tang Dynasty.
Gao Xianzhi, a famous figure in the Tang Dynasty, smashed Tubo, Xiaobolu Kingdom, Cheshi Kingdom, and Shi Kingdom in the Western Regions. During this period, he was sealed off by Anxi's four ambassadors.
With Gao Xianzhi's constant conquests, Datang's influence in the Western Regions, which is now near Central Asia, has also reached the peak of Chinese history.
By the way, do you know where Shiguo is now? "
Cao Mian shook his head: "I don't know."
"This is where Lin Shuo and the others settled tonight, which is now the capital of Uzbekistan, Tashkent." Cao Yusheng said.
"Oh." Cao Mian said, "What a coincidence?"
"It's not a coincidence, but this thing, which was originally nearby." Cao Yusheng continued, "When Gao Xianzhi conquered Shi Kingdom, the King of Shi Kingdom surrendered, and Gao Xianzhi also accepted it.
As a result, General Gao probably felt that if he only accepted the surrender, the credit was not enough and the record was not strong enough, so he changed his mind.
Civilians, kill them all. King, take it away. Property, looted.
On the first month of the tenth year of Tianbao, in 751 AD, Gao Xianzhi entered the dynasty and presented the captured King of Shi Kingdom in front of Tang Xuanzong.
He was awarded General You Yulin for this reason, and his prestige reached the pinnacle of his life.
The King of Stone Kingdom was beheaded.
Cao Mian, what do you think about this? "
"It's not authentic." Cao Mian said, "There is nothing wrong with it. Military commanders want military merits. This is caused by the system at the time. Human nature cannot stand the test."
"Yes." Cao Yusheng said, "The matter is here, the problem is not big. But Gao Xianzhi's mistake is to cut the grass and fail to get rid of the roots. The king of Shiguo caught it, but the prince ran away.
The King Stone ran to the black-clothed food next door, and went to the rescue.
Guess what happened later? "
"Master, I really don't know this history." Cao Mian shook his head.
"As soon as Gao Xianzhi heard that King Stone had asked for help from the black-clothed food, before waiting for any movement there, he chose to take the initiative to attack and took the 20,000 horses to attack the black-clothed food.
I guess that there was also a problem with intelligence at the time. Gao Xianzhi didn't know the depth of the big food in black. He thought this was also a small country like Xiaobolu, Cheshi, and Shiguo.
Actually, the whole world at that time, from now on, there are four big countries.
One is the Tang Dynasty on the east, the Frankish Empire on the west, and the other is Byzantium, which is the Eastern Roman Empire near Greece.
The last one is the Arab empire, which had just completed the change of dynasty at that time, called the Abbasid dynasty, which is the black-clothed food in Chinese history books.
As a result, Gao Xianzhi brought more than 20,000 men and horses to the expedition, and met an army of 200,000 people on the away field. Later, he was reinforced to 300,000.
This is the famous Battle of Tarros in the history books, and Datang failed to win.
This battle is so famous because it is the only time in history that Datang and Arabia have fought against each other, which is considered a gimmick.
In fact, the historical significance is not great, because Datang also lost less than 20,000 people, most of whom are not Tang people, but mercenaries from small countries attached to it.
Even the main commander Gao Xianzhi did not die, but escaped back. He was later beheaded by Tang Xuanzong because of the unfavorable suppression during the Anshi Rebellion.
However, in other aspects, the impact is still there, mainly one in and one out.
The one that went out was papermaking.
Papermaking is an invention of our China. Because of this battle, some of our craftsmen were captured over there, and the craftsmanship passed on, and it has been there ever since.
The one who came in was the Dover Demon.
This name is the remnant of the fleeing **, passed from over there. "
"Oh, then this deal is a big loss!" Cao Mian shook his head.
"Who said no?" Cao Yusheng said, "Although Gao Xianzhi is greedy for meritorious service, he is still a famous general. The ability to use soldiers is really good.
With a ten-to-one force comparison, General Gao didn't suffer a head-on decisive battle, and he stalemate for several days.
In the end, it was because a vassal army rebelled, and the army was flanked by two sides, and it was defeated.
Even so, Gao Xianzhi can still run out with thousands of men and horses in the chaos army, which shows that the direct line of troops in his hand is very powerful.
Among these, there is our hunter in the door.
Our hunting gate has always been like this, not only for the people, but also for the country.
In all dynasties and past dynasties, wherever frontier troops need frequent external warfare, our Hunter Gate will send people to participate.
Moreover, there are also rules. We hunters, we don't serve as officers in the army, but at most we are elite soldiers. Generally, we only serve as pawns and charge to kill the enemy.
In Gao Xianzhi's group of soldiers, there is a member of our hunting gate, who is a family of three brothers with the surname Fu.
During the Tianbao period of Datang, their Fu family was one of the nine great hunters at that time.
The three brothers of the Fu family at Gao Xianzhi's place, according to the record, were specially sent by the Fu family to the army to support them. They are true inheritance hunters, and they are really capable of nine inches.
In the Battle of Talos, the three brothers faced two or three hundred thousand enemies and killed countless enemies without any injuries. The three of them guarded Gao Xianzhi without losing a single hair.
As a result, on the way to retreat, passing by a desert, all three brothers died. Do you know why? "
"Meet the Demon of Dover." Cao Mian sighed.
"Yes." Cao Yusheng nodded, "There are more than 3,000 people in the remnant of Gao Xianzhi. Although he lost the battle, he is also the best man in China.
They are really good at fighting, but in the desert, they encounter beasts and alien species, people are sleepy and horses are lacking, and the environment is bad. It stands to reason that they have no chance of surviving.
The three brothers of the Fu family used their three lives to hold back the Dover Devil, save them, and let them go home.
Cao Mian, when you tell this story to your son in the future, don't miss the names of these three brothers.
They are called Fu Zhenghong, Fu Zhengyi, and Fu Zhengliang. These are the three martyrs of our hunting door. "
"I took it down." Cao Mian nodded vigorously.
Cao Yusheng sighed and continued: "More than three thousand people have returned, and the news will naturally come. When the Fu family asked, the name Dover Devil appeared in our hunting gate records for the first time. On.
Since then, the hunting gate has had seven hunting operations that almost came out of the nest, all of which were aimed at this thing.
As a result, this thing appeared out of nowhere and was not found.
Following the defeat in the Battle of Tarros and the subsequent Anshi Rebellion, the court slowly lost control of the large tracts of land near the desert.
So the hunt for the Dover Demon could only be delayed.
Unexpectedly, seven hundred years later, that is, the eleventh year of the Ming Dynasty, this kind of thing would appear again in the Taklimakan Desert.
The hunting gate was all out at that time, and fifty-seven hunters formed a hunting team.
I have read the list of fifty-seven people.
The leader of the hunting door at the time, as well as the patriarch of the nine families, there were quite a few, all in it. Other inheritance hunters, the least able to withstand seven inches.
There were fifty-seven hunters like this, and only one Lin Tahai came back in the end.
And even this Lin Tahai, who was ratified by the door for ten inches, died within a month after returning, and was seriously injured. "
"No, it's so scary." Cao Mian was stupid. "Then my sister can they come back?"
"It's hard to say." Cao Yusheng shook his head, "That is the eleventh rank beast alien on the Kyushu foreign body. It is one of the most powerful beings that humans have hunted.
When you meet this kind of thing life and death, who dares to say that you can come back alive?
Furthermore, the end Lin Shuo and the others are about to face is probably the end that the Fu brothers faced more than a thousand years ago, or the direct descendants of that end.
It's too close, it's all red deserts. "
"So what does this thing look like, and why is it so powerful?" Cao Mian asked again.
"I don't know what it looks like." Cao Yusheng shook his head, "The corpse that was shot to death by Lin Tahai in the eleventh year of Chenghua, the body sank in the sand, and Lin Tahai only brought it back. At this moment, his head is gone.
The picture drawn on the foreign objects in Kyushu, the old version has been passed to the present, and it is not clear.
As far as the description is concerned, the head is not big, it is about the size of our human head, and it looks really like a legendary demon, terrifying and terrifying.
As for the ability, according to Lin Tahai himself, this thing can create illusions and mislead the hunter if it is far away.
Once it gets close, it is very tough in close hand-to-hand combat. The average nine-inch capable hunter is just like paper in front of it.
It is usually hidden under the sand dunes, and it is difficult to find it because it does not show up easily. "
"Okay, old man, I can tell." Cao Mian said, "You want Lin Shuo and the others to die, so you let them take the deal.
Father, let me tell you the truth, even if I take your hunting door business, I will be a master at best and give my cousin an idea.
Being the leader, I really don't have this idea, you don't have to hold back so harming others. "
"How do you say the smelly boy? Am I that kind of person?" Cao Yusheng scolded with a stare, "Your boy is not worthy of being a hunter if you say this.
Clearing harm for the people has never been so easy to talk about!
We hunters accept the sale~IndoMTL.com~When did we consider our own life and death?
The Xing family in Europe has a seven-inch threshold. There are two nine-inch hunters in total. Don't they know that it might be the Dover Demon?
The son went and didn't come back. Dad took someone to go. Do you think it's just Dad looking for his son?
This is called going forward!
This is the rule set by our ancestors! Don't punish alien species, swear to never give up!
For a family with a seven-inch threshold, Lin Shuo is the leader of the hunting door, what should he do?
Cao Mian, in terms of ability, I never expected your kid to be able to compare with Lin Shuo.
But in terms of enlightenment, can you learn well and look at the outstanding peers around you?
Lin Shuo, Nianqiu, and Dylan, show me a good look at them, what is a real hunter! "
