Chapter 1023 Auspicious Beast [Dang Kang]!
However, on the mountain peak near a huge lake on the south side of this mountain, there are clouds and mist all day long, and the visibility is very low. It is extremely dangerous and rarely visited. Even players rarely come here to explore.
It is rumored that there is a heavenly beast nearby! Many players who went to explore the road were killed by this mysterious beast.
However, just after the sunset, a wave of murderous intent hidden in the dark quietly enveloped the surrounding area.
The twilight on the horizon, like a trace of blood, floated in the sky, foreshadowing danger.
…
During the day, when Lin Mu was resting in the army, he finally found an opportunity to meet Dian Wei again and had a good chat with him.
During the period, Dian Wei did not talk about the Yellow Turban Uprising at all, but only talked about some information about Wang Lang's territory and some knowledge of military training. Lin Mu wanted to indirectly touch Dian Wei's hometown, build relationships, and brush up his favorability, but he was also fooled by him.
He did not reveal any information about his family background.
I thought Dian Wei was a rough man with a big nerve, but I didn't expect him to be a rather cautious and careful rough man.
Rough but careful, that's what he said.
"General Dian Wei, your 200,000 infantry will first clear the surrounding secret sentries, and my light cavalry will use arrows to support from behind." Lin Mu said to Dian Wei. Lin Mu did not mention the characteristics of the archer cavalry of the Star Corps.
"No problem, let's go!" Dian Wei nodded. With a wave of his hand, he began to attack the mountain.
Lin Mu asked Huang Xu and Cui Wu to command the Star Corps, and he was on the side.
If this scene was seen by others, they might report that Lin Mu and the Yellow Turban Army were colluding! The two armies were too harmonious, and it didn't look like a meeting between two hostile camps.
Soon, night fell, and Dian Wei's infantry began to enter the designated forest and remove the sentries.
Turning his head and looking at the huge lake next to the cliff of the mountain, Lin Mu was thoughtful. After pondering for a while, he crouched and entered the forest, following the infantry.
I don't know what state Dian Wei added to the infantry. The soldiers entered the forest like ghosts. There was no sound coming out, and they easily eliminated the secret sentries one by one.
The two continuous forests nearby were easily occupied by the coalition forces. The infantry began to enter the second one.
However, just as they were preparing to attack the secret sentry, even though the infantry had a special state, they were startled by a continuous whistling sound.
The continuous whistling sound was very pleasant, like the sound of a fairy. However, as more and more infantry entered the second forest, the sound of the fairy became rapid and compact.
When this sound came, Lin Mu and Dian Wei raised their eyebrows at the same time, and their tracks were discovered. Then it was time to attack hard.
However, what interested them more was the owner of the pleasant fairy sound.
Lin Mu's mind moved, and the Dragon God Spear was in his hand. He immediately summoned Xiaoqi and rode the dragon scale horse in the forest regardless of the terrain.
Similar to Lin Mu, Dian Wei also ran wildly towards the origin of the sound, but he ran on his feet. Even so, Dian Wei's speed was faster than Lin Mu's mount.
Soon, Dian Wei and Lin Mu arrived at a wet mountain where all the trees had been cut down.
The air humidity in this mountain was very high, and in the middle, there were small puddles of water with shimmering waves.
Under the shining starlight, it looked quite mysterious. This is a swamp forest!
What surprised the two even more was that on one side of this special mountain, there stood a six-foot-long, four-foot-high, green-haired beast with two large ears emitting faint white fluorescence, and four long tusks sticking out of its mouth, like ivory, on its long mouth.
This magical beast looked like a wild boar! A mutant wild boar!
However, he always felt that this strange beast was very familiar.
Lin Mu didn't dare to regard it as a wild boar, even the king of wild boars didn't dare to regard it as one, because he felt that the majestic energy of this strange beast could be compared to the feeling given to him by Yu Jin, who was at the peak of the initial heaven level.
There was no one watching this strange beast, as if it was a wild beast. But Lin Mu knew that Wang Lang must have gotten it from somewhere and kept it in this marsh forest.
And this strange beast seemed to be a member of Wang Lang's territory. Knowing that Dian Wei's infantry was coming, he sounded the alarm for the territory.
Lin Mu stared at Dang Kang closely, and what made him even more horrified was that the pair of smart copper bell eyes also stared at him closely! He didn't look at Dian Wei who arrived at the first time, nor did he look at Dian Wei who was the strongest, but at him.
His huge eyes were filled with curiosity.
"Auspicious beast [Dang Kang]!!"
"How could it be here?!!" Dian Wei didn't know where he got the information about this strange beast, and exclaimed.
When Lin Mu heard this, his eyebrows jumped suddenly, and a strange feeling appeared on his spine, and then a greed rose in his chest.
This strange beast turned out to be Dang Kang! ! !
Dang Kang, also known as the tooth pig, is one of the mythical beasts in ancient Chinese mythology and a kind of auspicious beast that indicates abundance.
The "Classic of Mountains and Seas: Eastern Four Classics" records: "Qinshan has a lot of gold and jade but no stone. The Shi River originates there and flows northward into Gaoze, where there are many eels and many patterned shellfish. There is a beast there. It looks like a pig but has teeth. Its name is Dangkang. When Dangkang calls, the world will be prosperous. Xianyixing said: "Dangkang means prosperity. The sound is similar to the meaning. It means that the year will be prosperous. This beast will come out first to call for good luck."
"Dangkang Darang" is a good harvest, which is a happy event hoped for in the farming era. For thousands of years, agricultural production has been directly related to the fate of the vast number of farmers, and pigs are an important livestock. In the folk, there is a saying that "fat pigs arch the door" on New Year's Eve, which is a symbol of agricultural harvest. It is said that "fat pigs" will arch the door with ingots. This theme is also used in folk paper-cutting, which has become a good wish at the beginning of the year. This may have a spiritual and ideological connection with Dangkang's "calling by itself".
Lin Mu has studied this, because there are many rare and exotic animals in Shenzhou.
When he saw Dangkang just now, he felt familiar, because he had studied it before, but he didn't remember it for a while, and it really looked like a wild boar. When Dianwei called out its name, he remembered it.
Dangkang is an auspicious animal. If you bring it to the territory, the agriculture in the Great Wilderness Territory will definitely have an extra harvest!
Lin Mu has always attached great importance to agriculture in the Great Wilderness Territory. In order to store food, he has built many warehouses that take up a lot of space in the canyon.
If this auspicious beast is brought to the Great Wilderness Territory, it will be rich! Although he doesn't know what its specific benefits are, he is sure that the granaries in the territory may have to double!
"General Dian Wei, you know the name of this auspicious beast, and you must also know its ability. It is biased towards agriculture. I can make concessions and even help you in the dispute with Xu Huang, but I want this auspicious beast! And you help me!" At this moment, Lin Mu raised his momentum and said in a deep voice.
Dian Wei frowned when he heard this. Although the auspicious beast Dang Kang is extremely rare, it doesn't seem to be of much use to him, at least for now.
After a long silence, Dian Wei responded faintly: "Le Jin and Le Wenqian, they are under your command. If you hand him over to me, I will help you catch him!"
Sure enough, Zhang Jue was planning to bind the two Azure Dragon God Orders of Xu Huang and Le Jin. He didn't know what would happen if the Azure Dragon Order lost the two bound gods, but Zhang Jue himself must know, and even spent a price to plan it, and was willing to cooperate with Lin Mu.
Lin Mu frowned, as if he was lost in memory. After a while, he immediately shook his head: "No! I have never heard of or seen the Le Jin and Le Wenqian you mentioned."
It was as if he had recalled them carefully, but he had no impression and really didn't know them.
Dian Wei saw the certainty on Lin Mu's face. Le Jin, a military commander, should not be able to get it directly from Lin Mu here.
Dian Wei looked at Dang Kang, who was getting increasingly irritable, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Hu Lao Pass, if you help me break through Hu Lao Pass secretly, I will help you catch it, and even give you a jade talisman of an exotic beast to temporarily store it!"
When Lin Mu heard Dian Wei's conditions, his heart trembled violently. Good guy, I am really direct. Good guy, Dian Wei's route is to attack Hu Lao Pass! In other words, Dian Wei is basically responsible for the land in Guandong.
But after a little thought, Lin Mu felt lucky, because the Yellow Turban Army seemed unable to reach Hulao Pass.
Then this condition is just an empty promise!
"It seems that Dian Wei is also looking forward to the future of the Yellow Turban Army. Attacking the capital Luoyang is on his schedule!" Lin Mu said secretly.
"Okay! I promise you that when you attack Hulao Pass, I can enter the city and help you break through Hulao Pass. However, I will not kill the defenders in the city directly. I just let you in by mistake. You need to occupy the city." Lin Mu thought about it and agreed.
Hearing Lin Mu's promise, Dian Wei was slightly startled and looked a little surprised. He felt a little strange in his heart, but he couldn't find where the strangeness was.
Lin Mu's words seemed to be fine.
"Then... let's sign the Heaven and Earth Contract!" Lin Mu urged.
"No need to do this! We can just make a verbal gentleman's agreement!" Dian Wei shook his head and said.
Lin Mu blushed when he heard this. Damn, Dian Wei was so generous!
Immediately, without waiting for Lin Mu's response, Dian Wei flashed and came to Dang Kang's front.
When Dang Kang saw Dian Wei coming, his green hair stood up, and then his four hooves lit up, and four strange colorful flames lingered around his four hooves. As soon as the flames came out, the forest was illuminated like a fairyland.
As the four strange colorful flames lit up, Dang Kang's sturdy body disappeared like a ghost, and in an instant, his figure suddenly appeared behind Lin Mu.
However, it seemed that it had no ill will towards Lin Mu and did not attack him.
"Hey, it actually has the power of heaven and earth!" Dian Wei screamed, which was quite beyond his expectation.
The next moment, Dian Wei turned around, his breath suddenly became strong, and his whole body was filled with dark black light.
In the dark night, Lin Mu could see those dark black lights clearly, as if they would not blend into the darkness of the mountains and forests, but instead be as dazzling as the sun.
(In the next chapter, the dispute over Wang Lang’s territory will end, and the encirclement and suppression of Zhou Cang will begin. Thank you for your support, and thank you for the rewards from the four leaders. Thank you!)
