Chapter 587: Wang Yue's Travels in the South China Sea
The streets of Lujiang City are always bustling with people coming and going, and some taverns along the streets are always full of people.
The story of Journey to the Western Regions adapted by Li Yunfei is very different from the original story, and the Jade Emperor is no longer so bad. One decree can send immortal gods and even ancient gods.
The masters and the apprentices are no longer people who learn the scriptures, but become adventurers and explorers, exploring the endless world, encountering countless strange monsters and ghosts, so that people are full of endless imagination about the outside world. A nation has Curiosity also has the desire to explore externally, so the rise is not far away. As long as the people's curiosity and exploration are not stifled, the nation is destined to stand on top of the world. In fact, in addition to the travel notes to the Western Regions, there is also a small story about the travel notes to the South China Sea, which has also aroused the reverie of countless people.
In the box of a rather luxurious tavern, a general with muscles in his thirties, he was inviting a middle-aged and elderly man to drink in plain clothes. The middle-aged and elderly person was Wang Yue, who had just returned from overseas.
The relationship between Shi A and Wang Yue can be regarded as friends, and they can also be said to be mentors and apprentices. Of course, they did not apprentice. However, after Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Chang'an, his hometown was destroyed. Less swordsmanship.
"You're doing a good job, but after a few years, you've become a lieutenant again?" Wang Yue didn't expect Shi A to be able to stand out. He always thought that the generals of the new dynasty were all trained by His Majesty. only has a future ahead.
In fact, Wang Yue also reported to the recruiting department last year, but the person in charge of the recruiting department had never heard of his name. He felt that Wang Yue was too old, and said that he could be arranged to go to the workshop to check the gate. This made Wang Yue very annoyed, so he threw his sleeves and left in a fit of rage.
"Luck, it's just luck. It's just that in the last Xuzhou battle, I got a lot of military merit, so I was awarded the captaincy, Qianshi salary..." Speaking of his position, Shi A was also quite satisfied. Although this time I didn't grab the opportunity to go outside the border to expand the territory and build meritorious deeds, so I could only continue to stay near the Lujiang River to continue the military camp.
However, His Majesty attaches great importance to the military colony. Recently, trials of chemical fertilizers and hybrid rice have been carried out in his military colony. As long as things are done well, there will still be great credit.
"Brother Shi, do you think there is still a future for me to join the army now?" In essence, Wang Yue still very much hopes to have an official position, but he doesn't have a good luck and doesn't have much political savvy. There is no way to pull up a force, and it is only suitable to be a single-handed ranger. This is almost sixty, and there is still no official title. This matter makes him a little worried.
"There seems to be an age limit for joining the army, but why doesn't Master Wang go to the archaeological department to seek a position and a half position? There, the older and more experienced people are, the more popular they are. Like Master Wang, a well-informed person can definitely stand out."
"There is still this department, tell me quickly."
"The archaeological department is now led by Jia Xu, with a team of nearly 10,000 people. Under this department, there are three officials with a salary of 2,000 stone, and nine officials with a salary of 1,000 stone. With the qualifications of Master Wang, it should be possible to directly vote. Earning a salary of a thousand stones. You don't need to lead troops to fight, but you need to go over mountains and mountains, deal with wolves, tigers, leopards, bandits, bandits, etc. These are Master Wang's strengths..." Shi Ah explained. Wang Yue suddenly felt that this line of work was really suitable for him. He could not only live a life like a ranger, but also gain the recognition of the court. He was still very excited to eat imperial food.
"Where is that department, I'll ask now."
"Master Wang, don't worry, they are all off work now. I will take Master Wang with me tomorrow morning and introduce Master Wang!"
"So good, thank you Brother Shi."
"Master Wang is very polite, this is what the younger brother should do... By the way, Master Wang still doesn't know, the younger brother has a character now, so he is called Tailong!"
"Stailong? You're not afraid of breaking a taboo?" It's okay to be called a dragon, but it's not very good to be called a dragon.
"I actually didn't pick up the word myself. It's just that when I participated in the Grand Super League, His Majesty saw me and accidentally called me Stallone, and then everyone called me Stallone."
"I heard that His Majesty's swordsmanship is very good. How do you think my swordsmanship compares to his?"
"I have never seen His Majesty's swordsmanship, but I have seen the thirty-nine swordsmanship he trained. I can only fail miserably in his hands, so His Majesty's swordsmanship is very likely to be better than Master Wang's. of."
"……Pity!"
"Don't be a pity, Master Wang, did you write the travel notes in the South China Sea published in China Weekly?"
"Yeah, after traveling in the South China Sea for a year, I didn't make any money, but I almost survived several times. I finally came back, so I wrote down what I experienced and sold it to the weekly newspaper, in exchange for some money to spend. "
"...Master Wang has really seen that big bird?"
"Of course, unfortunately, a shipwreck happened later, and other witnesses died unexpectedly, and no one confirmed it to me."
"No one proves it's better. I think Master Wang should make a statement and say that it's just a story you imagined when you were shipwrecked."
"Why, I really saw that thing with my own eyes."
"...Even if that's true, what good would it be for the court to let the people know about the kind of monsters in this world? After this kind of thing is known to everyone, it can only cause panic and no benefit at all, so even if it does exist, it will It is better to treat it as nothing." Shi A analyzed.
"With such a powerful monster, shouldn't it be better to prepare early?"
"What's the use of preparing it? I think it is fair. If there is such a powerful monster, there will naturally be very powerful things that can deal with it, just like the ants don't need to worry about whether people will be ants or not. Like a nest, if you are really worried, it is nothing to worry about, there is no way to deal with it!"
"...Maybe what you said also makes sense. It's true that I didn't think through it thoroughly... I never thought that humans are so small." Wang Yue said a little annoyed.
"Don't be annoyed, drink, drink, this kind of thing should give the Holy Master a headache, we just need to work hard to get promoted and get rich."
The conversation between the two was clearly heard by an eavesdropping device in the room. This restaurant is actually one of the industries of the intelligence department.
The news was quickly sent to the headquarters and handed over to Li Yunfei. Because Li Yunfei wanted to investigate Wang Yue's identity, the intelligence department took action. Although Wang Yue's whereabouts are erratic, since he has been to China Weekly and sent the manuscript, of course there are still some clues to be found.
Li Yunfei, who received the news, really had a headache just like what Shi Ah said .
If this monster flew inland for a few laps and caused some damage, and he had nothing to do with it, his reputation would be wiped out... But that Shi Ah is a talent, maybe a colonel. bad for him...
"Okay, I want to digress again. The most important thing now is how to avoid the crisis of the monster. It seems that the only thing I can do is pray that the thing will not come to the mainland to sway. It is best to have some powerful person appear and surrender. That big bird!" When I think of the big bird with a wingspan of a few miles, it's really a head and two big, and it's scary to think about...
Maybe go to the Academy of Science and Technology to see if it is possible to come up with something that can scare away the monster with the current technical means, which is much better than passively waiting.
With the current technical conditions, it can barely cast cannons and rockets, but the power is only average, and it will never hurt such a big monster. If it is provoked, it will be even worse...
Maybe the invisible and invisible attack of sound waves will be effective, will the big bird hear some kind of sound fluctuation and become docile, maybe you can try to use infrasound waves to frighten the monsters... A little means is better than nothing. Okay, so, get a tweeter first?
