Chapter 556: Kui Niu

"It's changed so fast, where did the previous toughness go?"

Seeing Heizuka like this, Fang Yuan shook his head: "Forget it... I think you are quite strong, and you are also a good slave. You can probably sell it for a good price!"

"No... a certain family only accepts you, if you sell me to others, a certain family will not accept it!"

Heizuka rolled his eyes and yelled again.

"I think you have a simple face and a dark heart... are you planning something?"

Fang Yuan, however, saw through his innocence directly, and said unceremoniously: "At this time, my life is in my hands, and you still want to take advantage of me?"

"I am not an ordinary slave. If you are willing to use me, I will recognize you as master! Just let me be driven!"

Kurozuka called out hastily.

"Then steal the magic and secret technique from me?"

Fang Yuan answered.

After being told the truth, Heizuka blushed: "You are a Qi refiner, I am convinced that I lost, and I am willing to be a slave, but I have no intention of stealing lessons!"

"Forget it...you are a fool, you can't even tell a lie! Get up!"

Fang Yuan waved his hand: "Teaching exercises is nothing to me, so I will accept you as a slave."

"Thank you, Lord!"

Heizuka climbed up happily, ever since he realized that the person in front of him was also one of those mysterious qi refiners, he made up his mind that he had to climb up and be taken in, after all, this is the door to longevity! Fairy fate is rare!

When Meng Kuo came in, he was stunned to see Hei Zhong sitting cross-legged on one side, holding a leg of lamb in his hand and gnawing wildly.

"this……"

With a twitch in the corner of his eyes, he immediately looked at Fang Yuan: "Jie...have you subdued this person?"

"Well, this person's name is Heizuka, and he has voluntarily served me as a servant."

Fang Yuan nodded: "Meng Kuo, why are you here?"

"Of course I invite you to meet Fang Bo!"

Meng Kuo smiled wryly: "You have made such a great contribution, even if Fang Bo doesn't like it, he will be rewarded heavily. You can't escape the status of a soldier, and it's not even possible to be a corporal or a sergeant, but a corporal or sergeant. Lord Sergeant, this time you come back to Shangyi with us to meet the king, maybe you will be promoted as a doctor."

He is very clear about the respect that all the vassal states have for strangers who master thaumaturgy.

With the strength of this Jie, it is more than enough to be a noble duke, after all, he is the one who can even take down Heizuka.

As he said that, there was some emotion on his face, and he saluted again: "I didn't know you were an expert with strange skills before, so it was a bit neglectful, and I still look at Haihan."

Even if he didn't know it before, he should know it like other nobles at this time.

"No need...Actually, I know why I have such supernatural powers, but I don't know why..."

Fang Yuan waved his hand with a look of secretiveness.

Seeing this scene, Meng Kuo immediately understood, and regarded Fang Yuan as the lucky one who got an adventure and was taught by a different person.

"However... the matter of conferring a title must go back to Shangyi, meet the king, and record it!"

Meng Kuo said seriously, and immediately ordered someone to bring in a bunch of bronze vessels, weapons and other miscellaneous things: "These are all rewards for your military exploits, and there are twenty slaves!"

Scholar-bureaucrats are already a feudal class within the kingdom, and can have their own territories, vassals, and even armies! There is not much difference from the trumpet princes, so naturally they need to be treated solemnly.

Even a low-level taxi needs to be recorded in the palace history.

Of course, the advantage of doing this is that it is equivalent to getting out of ordinary people, and the descendants have stepped into the class of "scholars". Whether they are officials or soldiers, they have a higher starting point. , Chicken and dog ascend to heaven.

"Shangyi? You should go and see it!"

A golden light flashed in Fang Yuan's eyes.

Regardless of the way of immortality in this world, but the way of gods arises from the way of humanity, which should also be reflected in Wang Jizhong.

"I will accept these rewards, and I will go to see Fang Bo later. As for other banquets and the like, please push me away!"

Fang Yuan waved his hand.

Meng Kuo didn't have any objection. If it was placed before, even if it is a warrior who can defeat one hundred, such arrogance will inevitably arouse the envy and hatred of scholar-bureaucrats and even Fang Bo, but this time it is different.

For a foreigner who has mastered spells, it is normal to have this bit of reserve and arrogance.

Meng Kuo saluted immediately and retreated respectfully.

Fang Yuan looked at this scene, but his expression was calm: "Sure enough... No matter in any world, strength is the basis of the right to speak..."

...

On the second day, the army returned to the court.

Fang Yuan wandered among the ranks, silently observing the surrounding scenery.

In his body, the blood of the witch clan continued to grow and develop, bringing him endless power.

"According to this progress, when I return to Shangyi, I will be able to condense the real body of the Wu clan and recover most of my strength..."

Fang Yuan thought silently, with a smile on his face.

Like him, the businessmen around him were also full of joy.

"Sigh... I don't know if the corn in this business is ripe..."

Meng Kuo came to Fang Yuan's side with a rare air of compassion.

Because the army formed by the merchants is not a professional full-time army, it must abide by the laws of agriculture, otherwise the farming season will be delayed, and many people will starve to death in the coming year.

After being told by Meng Kuo, Fang Yuan also remembered that he also had a few private fields, and he also had slaves responsible for the farming, which was all Zeng Jie's property.

'At this time, in addition to farming their own private fields, the people of the country had to work in the public land, which was made for the well field... In fact, it was very similar to the exploitation of serfs by European manor owners. They had to cultivate the public land before they could take care of themselves. share of land. '

Fang Yuan thought silently.

Of course, as a Chinese, having your own private land and a little bit of political rights is already pretty good.

Below that are the savages living outside the city walls, as well as the lower slaves, whose lives are worthless.

Boom!

Boom!

At this time, the ground suddenly trembled.

A huge black shadow like a mountain emerged from the side of the mountain, bouncing around.

"Ah... such a giant beast!"

The entire army immediately went into chaos, while Meng Kuo and other officers loudly maintained order, and the most important thing was to stop the provocative actions made by the soldiers because of nervousness.

Boom!

Accompanied by the roar of the earthquake, the black figure got closer, allowing Fang Yuan to clearly see its black skin and the purple patterns on it.

This monster has a bull's head, but only one leg. Every time it advances, the surroundings are surrounded by lightning and thunder, as if the gods mastered the thunder.

"Kui Niu?"

Fang Yuan searched his mind, but found a very classic image.

"My lord, be silent!"

Heizuka also hurriedly said: "I have seen this giant beast once, its character is very docile, as long as it doesn't provoke you, it will be fine."

Boom!

In the midst of the thunder, the Kui Niu glanced at the scattered army, but he didn't move at all. As he walked further and further away, the huge figure gradually disappeared into the sky.

Seeing this, Meng Kuo waited for a group of high-level officials to wipe off a cold sweat, and began to gather the army and count the number of people.

Half a day later, the results came out, and hundreds of people were lost directly, making Meng Kuo angry and anxious, but helpless.

‘It’s just that it’s not easy to encounter Kui Niu on a trip, and the loss is comparable to losing a battle! '

Fang Yuan shook his head inwardly.

At this time, the Shang Dynasty was still in a mixed state of gods and humans, and the boundaries of extraordinary power were not very obvious. Not only could ordinary people like Heizuka be taught by other people and embark on the path of cultivation, various legends The strange beasts in the book also frequently appear in the world, and they can even be slaughtered by humans!

'It sounds... It seems that there are similar legends in the early stages of each civilization... It's like the ancient European myths of the previous life. All kinds of legendary heroes were originally mere mortals, but they could kill giant beasts and become gods... Of course, in the end they also They are all gradually disappearing. It seems that Jue Tian Di Tong is not only the patent of the East, but also has the Twilight of the Gods in the West. '

Fang Yuan realized something: "Perhaps... this is the necessary process for all irradiated civilizations?"

"keep going!"

After counting the team, the whole team continued to move slowly.

Fang Yuan summoned Heizuka and asked him to hand over the spells he had learned, and silently consulted himself: "Spells and spells... What this stranger taught Heizuka is actually just 'skills'! There is no 'method'! It seems Is it because he doesn't have enough opportunities, or is he not strong enough?"

"On the contrary, from this technique, I can see a lot of things, and try to deduce the matching exercises..."

He glanced at Heizuka beside him, this is a good experimental product, isn't that why he was taken in as a slave?

Seeking benevolence and gaining benevolence may be what this person wishes in his heart.

"However... such a big Kui Niu is dispatched, so many strange beasts must be alarmed!"

Fang Yuan was looking at the black tomb with the eyes of a butcher and hunter, and when he saw Meng Kuo, he casually told him, "Be careful, this Kui Niu is driving mountains and waters all the way, maybe he will drive out some troublesome guys!"

"Exactly... Otherwise, why should we hurry and leave here?"

Meng Kuo gave a wry smile.

But as soon as he finished speaking, a roar of tigers came from behind.

"What happened?"

Meng Kuo settled down and looked at the rear army.

There, the figure of a big white tiger appeared, charged directly at the army formation, and took away a slave in one bite.

"It was actually a hit. Could it be that I still have the talent of a crow's mouth?"

Fang Yuan looked at the white tiger.

I saw that the opponent's body was about two feet long, and his bloody mouth opened wide, almost able to swallow a person in one gulp.

Of course, the most important thing is that it sweeps like the wind, and it seems that there is always a layer of light white light around its body. It turns out to be a monster that has achieved success in cultivation! Come here to eat people!

Seeing its unscrupulous appearance, it is obviously confident that the prey group in front of it can only abandon the old, weak, sick and disabled, and run away desperately, so that it can feast on it.

"How courageous! Surround it for me, prepare your bow and crossbow!"

When Fang Bo's order came, it was full of bullying.

The previous Kui Niu was like a natural disaster, unmatched by manpower, but this white tiger obviously did not reach that level!
