Real Cthulhu Running Game

  Chapter 1983 Rusty

   "What are you talking about?"

  Yu Lei's voice suddenly sounded behind Liu Xing. As soon as Liu Xing turned his head, he saw Yu Lei who was playing hache and had no image of a master.

   "Uh, it's okay, we're just discussing how to deploy defenses in Tianshui Town. After all, be careful when sailing for thousands of years. Tianshui Town still needs to prepare some defensive measures to deal with possible threats." Liu Xing said with a smile.

   "Apeng, you are right. There are so many people in Tianshui Town now. It is true that we need to work **** defense, so as not to suffer heavy losses when we get it."

Yu Lei looked around and continued: "As far as the terrain of Tianshui Town is concerned, I personally suggest building a defense line by the river. The enemy's cavalry pulled up the speed, so we had to install a few horses on the bridge when necessary; as for how to guard the river, we could only continue to put some horses on the river bank to force the enemy to attack. We can only go ashore from a few places, and then we only need to arrange a few reliable pikemen, and we can fight ten against one."

When Liu Xing heard Yu Lei mention the stone arch bridge, he immediately thought of those dragon-slaying swords, so he immediately asked: "Brother Yu, we found several dragon-slaying swords under this bridge a few days ago, and what are the dragon-slaying swords? We found that some swords may have the blood of monsters on them, so we are a little worried that there are other monsters around here!"

  As soon as Liu Xing said this, Yu Lei's expression became serious, because he had also dealt with many monsters, so he knew exactly how destructive a monster hidden in the dark would be.

  And Yu Lei also has a certain understanding of the dragon sword, so he knows that the monsters that can be injured by the dragon sword are generally not too weak.

   "Are you sure it's not the wine gorilla?" Yu Lei asked with a frown.

"There is a 90% probability that it will not be the wine gorilla, because the blood of these monsters has been covered with rust, so we estimate that the blood of these monsters has existed for more than 20 years, that is, before the accident in Tianshui Town. Yes; and according to our previous speculation, the wine orangutan should have been in the growth stage many years ago, so the body size may be similar to that of a mandrill, so it is unlikely to be injured by the dragon sword." Liu Xing explained.

Yu Lei nodded, and after pondering for a while, he said hesitantly: "In my memory, there has been no flood in Tianshui Town for a long time, and there are no sighting reports about monsters, so from the establishment of Tianshui Town In the process of being burned, I really can't think of any monsters that will settle or pass here; of course, it's a different matter if it's just a monster that can only live in water, because this kind of monster has always lived underwater , so we rarely see them, and most of them are glimpses."

"So I now know the specific situation of more than 30 kinds of monsters, among which there are only two monsters that live completely in water. A monster that can stay on land for half a year; but the two aquatic monsters I know are unlikely to be related to this matter, because the ironhead fish among them has a head about twice the size of its body, and it is not a magic weapon No sharp weapon can leave a scar on its head, so if an ironhead fish passes by, there is no way for the rusty Dragon Slaying Sword to hurt it."

"Then there is the water arrowfish. This monster is about the size of a dog. It can spit out several water arrows that can penetrate ordinary wooden doors in the blink of an eye. It will also explode directly when it is fatally injured. Hundreds of small water arrows splashed around; however, this kind of magical beast generally lives in the southern region that does not freeze, and only surfaced when preying, so it is not the current situation, so this may be A monster that has not been discovered yet."

Speaking of this, Yu Lei looked at Liu Xing, "So you take me to see those dragon-slaying swords first! Although it is said that the dragon-slaying sword is used to prevent flood dragons from collapsing bridges, the problem is that so many years have passed, We really haven’t found Jiaolong or similar monsters, and snake monsters like Guoshanfeng basically don’t take the initiative to go into the water, because they rarely surface after going down; so so far, we still I think Jiaolong is a kind of mythical creature, that is, a fantasy creature that only exists in mythology, but there are indeed some large fish in the water. When the water rises, it may continue to collide with the pier, resulting in some poor quality bridges collapsed."

"So there are two kinds of dragon-slaying swords on the market today. One is an ordinary iron sword, or even an iron lump with the shape of an iron sword. Its existence is for peace of mind; There are really some things, their sharpness is comparable to the magical weapons in the hands of some heroes, but they are easy to damage, so there is no pressure to deal with ordinary fish schools, and this dragon-slaying sword You can chop up some fish when the water rises, and then attract some predatory fish or other animals to drive other fish away, so as to ensure the safety of the bridge.”

  It looks so scientific.

  Liu Xing did not expect that there is such a saying about Zhanlongjian, but it is indeed feasible in a sense.

   "In addition to this, there is a very special dragon-slaying sword. This dragon-slaying sword is indeed used to target some monsters passing under the bridge, but its function is to collect the blood of monsters."

Yu Lei rubbed his chin and said: "This is actually a very old trap, you may have heard of this kind of trap - the winter in the north is very cold, and the heavy snow in some places can even block the door , so those animals that do not hibernate face food problems, so local hunters take advantage of this to hunt wild wolves and other animals; in simple terms, they smear chicken blood and duck blood on a sharp short knife, and then Let it freeze naturally, and then pour a little more water to let it freeze again, and after repeating this several times, you can put this short knife in the path of the wolf."

"It's snowing heavily, and after smelling the smell, those wild wolves who have been hungry for a few days may start to lick blood from the knife edge, and then their tongues will gradually become numb. After all, this is an ice knife. But this still can't resist their instinct to continue licking; in the end, the tongues of these wild wolves may be cut open by a short knife, but their tongues have no feeling at this time, and this fresh wolf The blood is more flavorful, so these wolves will lick more vigorously, and then they will collapse due to excessive blood loss, and finally become a wolf fur coat."

Liu Xing had heard several versions of the story Yu Lei told many years ago, because some versions would change the short knife into a three-sided army thorn, or add some Mabosan to the smeared chicken blood and duck blood, Or simply add arsenic directly.

   "Brother Yu, you mean that some special seasonings may be smeared on some dragon-slaying swords, which can attract some monsters to lick and leave some monster blood?" Liu Xing said.

"That's right, many people are thinking about this idea now. After all, the blood of monsters is quite valuable, and you can keep it for your own use, so there will always be people who want to do this business, but there is one thing to say, as long as you have the courage A little bigger, and then be careful when doing things, then the risk of doing this is not too high."

Yu Lei said as he walked, "I knew a friend before, and he did a similar thing. He took a hollow short gun and put it in the woods, and then hung a piece of fresh fat on the end of the gun. When passing monsters eat meat, if they are not careful, they will be injured by short guns, and the blood of monsters has a high probability of being stored in short guns; of course, this is quite simple to say, but it is very effective in practice. For example, the position of the short gun is very particular, and it must be ensured that the monster can just reach it, so that it can just open a hole for it."

"Then it is necessary to understand the habits of this monster and determine when it will start preying, because if this trap appears after it eats, it is estimated that this monster will not even look at it, and if it is in it If you put it on before eating, then you may be swallowed by the belt stuffing, so when you put the trap is very important; and the IQ of Warcraft is not low, you can only cheat the same trick It's really lucky to be able to fool it once, twice, so you have to change a move every time."

  Hearing Yu Lei's words, Liu Xing thought of Guo Shanfeng, maybe he could use traps to deal with it? For example, "release" a few chickens, ducks and geese on the mountain every day, and then tie some "seasoning" to the chickens, ducks and geese after the mountain wind gets used to it?

   I don’t know how high Guo Shanfeng’s own poison resistance is? In other words, can poison resistance work on special medicinal materials such as crotons.

   If it’s really not possible, why not arrange a few iron nematodes for Guo Shanfeng?

  As soon as he opened his mind, Liu Xing felt that he really had a way to handle the passing mountain wind, but it might take a long time.

Back at the Juyi Hall, Liu Xing took out the dragon-slaying swords that had been taken down, and Yu Lei just took a look at them, and said with certainty: "That's right, it's not some dragon-slaying sword, it's just a dragon-slaying sword. It is a trap aimed at monsters, and it seems to be used to deal with those flying monsters! If I guessed correctly, these dragon-slaying swords are placed densely under the bridge, right? In this way, you only need to hang some Bait, if those flying monsters want to eat them, they may accidentally scratch their backs or wings. Of course, they may only drop a few feathers, but these feathers are also quite valuable, and they are used to make arrows The tail feathers allow beginners to point where to hit."

I see.

  When Liu Xing saw these dragon-slaying swords under the bridge before, he felt that something was wrong, because these dragon-slaying swords were crowded together instead of evenly distributed at the bottom of the bridge.

"If it is a flying monster, then the range is quite large, because unless the flying monster is of a very special shape, such as the four-winged giant eagle that often appears these two days, it is difficult for you to distinguish it with the naked eye. Is it a monster, so now we know very little about flying monsters; and flying monsters also like to migrate around like ordinary birds, so this flying monster that left the blood of monsters may be After staying in Sweetwater Town for a few months, we moved to other places, so we don't need to worry about this monster still living nearby."

  Although Yu Lei was very confident when he said these words, Liu Xing always felt a little worried. . . What if this monster is a four-winged giant eagle?

"But having said that, although these dragon-slaying swords have been hanging under the bridge for many years, logically speaking, they shouldn't be so badly rusted, because a qualified dragon-slaying sword will be treated with anti-rust treatment, so even if the Even if it has been left for more than 20 years, it shouldn't become what it is now, not to mention that some dragon-slaying swords have the blood of monsters to help prevent rust." Yu Lei said doubtfully.

At this time, Yin En immediately replied: "Is there such a possibility that the reason why these dragon-slaying swords will rust is because the blood of these monsters has played a role? That is to say, that monster has the ability to accelerate Ability to rust?"

  As soon as Yin En said this, Yu Lei's eyes suddenly widened, looking very surprised.

After a while, Yu Lei said seriously: "Maybe there is such a possibility, because there was an unsolved case in Liangcheng more than ten years ago, a family was supposed to attend a banquet that day, but it turned out They didn't show up after the banquet, so the person hosting the banquet felt a little strange. After all, the relationship between the two families is not bad. If your family has something to do and doesn't come, you should ask someone to bring a message, so he took someone to Looking for the family, I want to see what happened here, and if I need to help myself."

"As a result, when they came to the door of the family, they knocked on the door for a long time, but no one responded. They asked the neighbors around and said that his house hadn't opened the door today, and they didn't hear any movement, so these people realized that something was wrong, so They just broke into the door; as a result, they stepped down, and the door opened directly, because the door lock was already rusty! Then they found that the family was lying everywhere in the yard, without any wounds on their bodies. But there seems to be something wrong with his face, and his expression is also a little ferocious, besides that, the iron utensils everywhere are already rusted, but the degree of rust is still somewhat different."

   Hearing this, Liu Xing couldn't help frowning.

   As a medical student, Liu Xing's teacher once put forward a hypothesis, that is, if the iron ions in the human body suddenly become iron atoms and rust, what kind of impact will it have on the human body?
