Chapter 20 Ghost Rong 2
Things like escalating experience values really don't sound scientific at all.
And the experience value seems to be very strange. After returning from eliminating the wild dog, he made several attempts. He ran to the butcher and first killed a few rats. There were people who caught rats in the refugee camp (it was normal for poor people to eat rat meat) - As a result, the rats provided 1 experience regardless of their size. Then he tried rabbits that were much bigger than rats, but the rabbits were still 1 point. Then he tried a sheep (in order to get the qualification to slaughter a sheep, he had to bribe the butcher a sum of money). The result was naturally the same. Although the fat sheep was bigger than those wild dogs, it could only provide 1 experience value.
Obviously, the judgment of this experience value is not based on the target's physique or physical strength. You should know that although sheep are herbivores, they are not losing strength, and their strength is absolutely impossible to be smaller than those wild dogs.
In addition, for the same race, the disabled werewolves could only provide 25 points of experience, while the scouts increased by more than several times. Is this because the former is in a bad physical condition? Or is the latter stronger?
What is the basis for this experience value? I don’t understand at all.
Forget it, don’t think so much for the time being. The most important thing now is to upgrade as soon as possible. In any case, you must reach the level of using level 3 magic before the large-scale missions of the refugee camp are launched.
As for the warrior profession, it is actually just for the special skill of "tolerating death". With this special skill, the mage is stable and no longer afraid of assassination and raids. To put it bluntly, if you practice warriors with a 9-power agility and 10-power character, there is absolutely no future.
As he thought about it, Zhang Cheng slowly lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
While he was asleep, Mr. Huang was meeting a guest. He was a young man in leather armor, with a thin face and a dissatisfied look. Mr. Huang knew him as a small sergeant in the army.
However, this person is indeed a bit different. Even Mr. Huang has heard of some things about him. It is said that as a Chinese, he has learned the skills of "control", that is, he knows how to control a chariot and is qualified to be a driver. In addition, it is said that he is practicing magic recently. Among Chinese people, he is considered an ambitious type.
Of course, this is useless. Mr. Huang knew very well that even if he was a Chinese, the common people were common people, which was the so-called "villain". The villain had no virtue, which was common sense. It was not impossible to use it, but he could not entrust heavy responsibilities. For example, the irrelevant little things like driving away the wild dogs before could be allowed to do it. Of course, although some common people had noble morals from time to time, Mr. Huang believed that it was a mistake, probably to "
Youshi" mistakenly regarded it as an ordinary Chinese. Of course, the economic status of these two may indeed be very close. Even if the poor and poor people are rare, it is at least not uncommon. But no matter how poor the people are, they are scholars, "gentlemen", born with noble moral sentiments, and are existences that can be entrusted with important responsibilities in times of crisis, just like Zhang Cheng, who can stand up to cover the prince's escape in times of crisis. If the people of the country are motivated, they are also people with no virtue, which can be driven but cannot be trusted.
Of course, there was something wrong with such a small sergeant coming to find Mr. Huang. In fact, he volunteered to participate in the reconnaissance of Gui Rong.
The incident of Gui Rong was spread all over the camp. This was not Huang Gong's fault. In fact, the matter was in a hurry. When Xuan Gui summoned him, he was discussing with a few subordinates, or a group of common people, that is, the Chinese people, how to deal with a series of miscellaneous things in the city. As mentioned earlier, such chores such as cleaning the gutter and feeding horses are not suitable for noble scholars to do, but they have to be dealt with. So Huang Gong directly searched for those common people's subordinates to solve the problem. The scene of Xuan Gui's summoning was also seen by these people. Even if they were temporarily asked to retreat, because they were not in the secret room, the conversation would naturally be heard, and it would be natural for these talkative villains to leak the news.
Fortunately, these Chinese people have little knowledge and are not worried that they will recognize this as Xuan Gui's effect.
Of course, this is also a small matter. Even though the camp was a little shaken by the Gui Rong incident, it was nothing to him. Mr. Huang didn't care much. But he didn't expect a volunteer to come.
It came very suddenly and asked to go to reconnaissance with Zhang Cheng.
If he came to ask for a replacement for Zhang Cheng, Mr. Huang would probably make a fuss and get rid of the matter. After all, this is a big deal. He needs a scholar who can trust, not a Chinese who makes a fuss, blows small things into big things, and big things into big things. But if it is with him, it seems that nothing is wrong.
He quickly made a decision. Since he wanted to go, then go as Zhang Cheng's driver. It just so happened that he could drive an empty chariot to provide logistical support to Zhang Cheng. After all, it was difficult to say "go in quietly, don't shoot". It was probably like stabbing a hornet's nest and causing trouble for a lot of Gui Rong in one breath. If you need to escape, no, when you retreat, there is a waiting chariot, things will become much easier.
Anyway, as a means of transportation, you don’t need to be equipped with a right-hand vehicle, just one driver is enough.
Zhang Cheng set out early in the morning.
He originally thought he had to walk over, but he didn't expect that Mr. Huang arranged a chariot for him. Although the other party explained that this chariot was not for combat, and it was not equipped with a chariot necessary for combat, so it could only be said to be transportation. But this was also a chariot after all.
The history books of the earth clearly state that chariots belong to the army that will be eliminated by cavalry in the future. Because this thing is expensive, bulky and inflexible, and has a low cost performance. But then it is also the "future". At present, it is still the elite army of this world, or even the core army. Moreover, because I have experienced the feeling of watching the chariot rushing towards me face to face, Zhang Cheng is actually curious and envious of the chariot. Think about it, a mage stands on a chariot, with the protection of warriors around him, and uses magic to kill all directions... This is a matter suitable for such a noble profession of mages. Unfortunately, he is just a vain, and it is useless to have money, and he is not qualified to arm a chariot.
And now, Mr. Huang helped him fulfill this wish.
The feeling on the chariot is actually not good. After all, there is a lack of a buffer system. It’s okay to stand on the chariot and get slower. The bumps are really exaggerated. When this thing is marching, you may be able to take a slightly rough road, but it takes quite flat land to actually enter the battle. However, the land that humans live in is mainly plains. At least for now, the disadvantages of the chariot are not obvious.
The driver sent by Huang Gong was named Jia, and he didn't talk much at the beginning. However, his driving skills were pretty good. At least in this kind of car without a buffer system at all, the car was relatively stable when the speed was slow, and this performance was already very good.
However, even if it is slower, it is a chariot, and speed and walking are two different things. Zhang Cheng still remembers that when he came to Kunwu City, he looked at the flags in the distance, but was unable to arrive. The chariot only advanced for a short while, and only the flags were left in Kunwu City behind.
"Young Master Zhang Cheng..." Jia suddenly spoke.
"You can just call me Zhang Cheng." Zhang Cheng knew that this was a kind of honorific title, but he was not used to it very much. "Your name is Jia, do you have a surname?"
It would be fine if two words are just called, but it would feel a bit strange if you only call the other party's single name.
"I am a commoner." Jia was silent for a moment and replied. He knew that Zhang Cheng was a Youshi. He also had a family and of course he had a surname. But even so, he was better than a commoner who didn't even have a surname. In fact, it cannot be said that he had no surname. Jia knew that his surname was "Ren" and was also a long-standing surname, but this surname was "fake surname", which means that it doesn't matter if you brag among the common people, but the nobles did not admit it. If you happen to meet a nobleman with the surname Ren, you will be seriously accused of each other and compare with him the ancestors, then it will be revealed. Ding is Ding Mao and Mao, and ancestors can trace it up one by one, but your mouth is open but your ancestors are incomplete. The final result is probably at the least, you will be ridiculed by the other party, and at the worst, you will be angry and cut off directly, saying that you are pretending to be a scholar and your sins are unforgivable.
Zhang Cheng had no idea that the common people in this world had no surnames, so he was speechless for a moment and couldn't speak.
"That... Mr. Zhang Cheng... What surname do you have?" He didn't know that Zhang Chengzhu's surname was "Zhang".
"I dare not say that, I am afraid of being humiliated by the ancestors." Zhang Cheng quickly answered. "Don't call me young master, just call me Zhang Cheng."
He suddenly became a little curious. "How could you drive a chariot?"
"I learned it myself." Jia replied lightly. It sounds easy, but only he knows how much hard work and price he has paid to learn to drive a chariot. But what if he learns it? It seems that everything has not changed. "You won't?"
"I really can't." Zhang Cheng admitted. This skill cannot lie. What's the use of lying? If you hand the reins into your hands, everything will be revealed. "Where should I learn this?"
"It is very convenient if you want to learn. I heard that Doctor Kunwu once wanted to accept you as a retainer? As long as you promise him, he will definitely teach you." He may even teach you personally.
Oh? Is there something wrong? Zhang Cheng thought about it and had a vague memory.
"Why do you want to refuse such a good thing? You know, Kunwu is also one of the eight Zhurong clans, a famous family among the famous families." How could the bloodline of the gods not be famous? He asked curiously. "And Doctor Kunwu is very generous..."
He suddenly stopped talking because he remembered that the other party had a different identity from him. The Youshishi was also a scholar, just like the recruitment of Doctor Kunwu. For common people like him, it was simply a golden staircase that fell from the sky. It was very willing. Even if you had to go to the battlefield for a lifetime and life-and-death battle, it would be worth the money. Because according to unwritten rules, if you don’t have your own surname, Doctor Kunwu will give you the surname, usually your surname, namely the surname "Ji" and "Kunwu", to give you, and allow you to use this.
When you go out and talk, you can say "I am a retainer of Kunwu Doctor". Everyone will assume that you are also a scholar, surnamed Ji, Kunwu. In the future, if you arrange your ancestors with others, you can "graft" them into Kunwu Doctor's family. Everyone knows that Kunwu is a descendant of Zhurong, and his divine bloodline is an unquestionable descendant of a famous family. If you are lucky enough and have the chance to marry a Kunwu woman in the future, you will really break the bones and tendons, and you will be a family with Kunwu. No one believes that you are not.
Although Zhang Cheng didn't know what his surname was, everyone knew that he had his own surname, but he just refused to tell others. Therefore, he was not very interested in "joining the Kunwu family".
"Because...that..." Zhang Cheng hesitated for a long time before answering. "I don't want to be a retainer."
He was telling the truth, there was no way. He knew that this was the remnant of the civilized world. He longed for freedom and was unwilling to accept the constraints. Thinking of this, he inexplicably remembered his life.
Can you still go to the earth? It shouldn't be possible. This time travel is too unscientific and has no reason to reproduce.
Jia shook the reins hard, speeding up a little.
"Jia, do you know about Gui Rong?"
"Know a little bit." Jia replied. "I heard that the ghost party appeared in the summer and gradually became stronger... In that era, the descendants of gods were not as rare as they are now..."
What? Xia Dynasty? Descendants of gods? What do you care about? Zhang Cheng muttered in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask. After all, he was too ignorant of this world. A little bit of whine could easily arouse suspicion from the natives.
"...It is said that when Cheng Tang destroyed Xia, Gui Fang did not join the war. He also helped Cheng Tang obstruct the nine-stage army. However, they also underestimated the Shang Dynasty. When they arrived in Wuding, the Shang Dynasty attacked Gui Fang and almost wiped out Gui Fang. It is said that the remaining ones either hid and lie down or hid in the northwest... Later, Gui Rong began to harass the border of the Zhou Dynasty again and was wiped out by Wang Ji in a battle..."
Wait, wait! Dormant? What the hell is dormant?
If Gui Rong is such as ogres, goblins, dwarves, etc., those creatures do not lie. No, it should be said that normal intelligent creatures do not lie. They are not bears! Moreover, bears hibernate in a specific environment. Also,... wait... Gui Rong... Gui Rong... Gui Fang... Zhang Cheng suddenly woke up.
