Chapter 254 Legends and Rumors
The so-called big bird that can't be eaten by ten people is the ostrich. Liu Cang, the tiger, has a hard time raising it now, and he doesn't catch a cold like the lions or other things.
Moreover, after leaving the country and getting involved with the Haranta camp, Liu Cang had already told Kushan mercenaries to spread the news of purchasing rhinos, elephants, and hyenas in Haranta.
Roxana's 'hooking up' only reminded Liu Cang of asking the Kushan mercenaries to add ostrich eggs to the purchased items.
Roxana was discouraged. She seemed to have nothing to bargain with Liu Cang. The nobles of the Han Dynasty were too arrogant. They seemed to be able to do everything themselves?
Roxana secretly swore that the secret of the Immortal must be firmly in her hands. This was her only weight.
As a result, when she looked at the flying bear camp fighting with the tiger, Roxana felt a little unsure: Can her 'partners' be able to defeat such a flying bear army?
"Your Highness, it is said that the King of the Immortal Sea is a dragon turtle as huge as an island. It sleeps forever at the bottom of the lake in the Immortal Sea. The Water God may be a dragon, which only appears in dark thunderstorms." Roxana turned off the engine.
The Qiang girl popularized the legend about the Immortal Sea to Liu Cang.
"Pfft~" What the Qiang girl said was true. Liu Cang's eyes were blank, and Roxana sneered at the side.
"Does that mean these monsters you are talking about have never been seen by anyone? Ignorant barbarians, your stories are worse than the speeches of a third-rate vaudeville class." Roxana mocked, but this time Liu Cang agreed with Roxana's statement.
Turtles that sleep forever at the bottom of the lake, dragons that only appear when humans can't see them? Listening to these tunes, Liu Cang felt that it would be more realistic to look for the plesiosaurs mentioned in later generations in the lake.
Under the clear sky, there is no news about the eagle withering, and Liu Cang has also lost interest in the story of the Qiang girls. The wolf army has begun to set up tents for accommodation.
Tigers and wild wolves paced around the lake. From time to time, wolverines with big fish in their mouths swam out of the lake to monopolize their prey, and then very conscientiously ran around the tent to look for poisonous insect and rat holes.
When everyone was free, Liu Cang and others chatted about various legends about beasts and mythical creatures in the Han Dynasty, such as dragons in the lakes and seas, ferocious beasts in the mountains, gluttons outside the pass, and red birds dancing with the erupting volcanoes.
Liu Cang has seen both Qilin and Suanni, and even the canopy that is suspected of being Kangang was raised by Liu Cang. The descriptions of ferocious and gluttonous are more weird. There are actually very few legends about dragons, but there are occasional encounters with dragons on the shores of lakes and seas.
s story.
Suzaku, the evil dragon, Jia Xu believes exists. Compared with the ferocious and gluttonous beasts, their descriptions are somewhat mysterious. The reason why Jia Xu believes in their existence is that in the pre-Qin period, the Qin people were committed to killing them.
Record.
Liu Cang didn't care that some of them were missing. After chatting and joking, Liu Cang found that he had indeed not set foot in many places.
There are countless inaccessible and dangerous mountains and rivers in this world. Didn't he come here to look for the Gu withered that should be real to a certain extent?
Liu Cang originally recognized them as mythical species, but now Liu Cang began to understand them as some ancient creatures that became extinct in later generations.
"After returning this time to settle down the trivial matters, I would like to move around more." Liu Cang seemed yearning for it.
"These things have become like legends, and no one has caught the real ones for hundreds of years. Even the Yin and Yang family gave up research on them."
"If my lord wants to walk, it is better to travel more with aristocratic families from all over the world. The lord of the Wuji Zhen family should get closer to him. My lord should not be too distracted by those gods and monsters." Jia Xu shook his head and advised.
"Haha." Liu Cang chuckled, noncommittal.
People in this era were more aggressive, especially people with higher social levels. They might praise, fear, or find it troublesome for mythical species, but in fact, their level of awe was much lighter than that of people in later generations.
For example, Liu Cang was thinking about whether he could catch a "living Jesus" earlier. How could this be considered in the minds of future generations? It was simply a prelude to the destruction of the world.
Experts from later generations usually say that Jesus knelt in the early Eastern Han Dynasty.
In other words, when Wang Mang usurped power, Jesus was still a young man jumping up and down. When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty stood in front of him, he would call him uncle.
It is somewhat different from the legends of later generations. As Roxana said, there does seem to be a guy in Rome who is suspected of being Jesus.
Liu Cang was very unscrupulous and thought about it. Jesus was actually a bit like "Zhang Jiao" in Rome, but the city-state system there was a bit chaotic. He should be luckier than Zhang Jiao and found a good sponsor.
Generally speaking, for humans in this era, myths are very close to them, and they are also very close to myths.
If we had to put a distance, it would probably be the same as the distance between the Three Kingdoms in later generations. Well, maybe it was closer. After all, it also involves the issue of civilizational fault lines.
Killing gods is more popular in the West. In the East, many people actually consider whether they can eat the various evil and auspicious beasts in the legends of later generations, and whether they taste good or not.
"My lord, I heard that the head of the Zhen family seems to have died of illness. Zhen Yi has many children. The Wuji Zhen family has been in business for several generations. Now my lord and the Zhen family have an intersection. With my lord's reputation, I might be able to find a daughter from the Zhen family and marry her.
Kinship."
Obviously, Jia Xu is not very fond of mythical beasts. When he gets the chance, he will give Liu Cang a chance to popularize whose girl is worth the trouble.
He has been wandering around the Zhen family's caravan a lot these days, and seems to have found out the news that the mainstay of the Zhen family is about to die.
"Well, the cattle and sheep will be temporarily handed over to Zhen's caravan for transport back to Han Dynasty. Zhen will go to say hello after all." Liu Cang had no objection to this, and Jia Xu's face showed relief.
"O king, I once saw an evil dragon on the banks of the Euphrates River. It spit out poison that dissolved rocks, and its breath could burn the surface of the river."
Jia Xu was also preparing to further discuss the value and benefits of the Zhen family with Liu Cang. On the side, Roxana once again attracted Liu Cang's attention, which made Jia Xu frown with dissatisfaction.
"Oh? A giant dragon, like a lizard? The one with wings?" Liu Cang was curious.
"Yes, it has dragon wings that cover the sky and the sun. Countless warriors yearn to use its head to prove their bravery. It should be conquered by you. These goshawks are as insignificant as flies in front of it."
Roxana has the potential to be a magician, at least she has a divine and mysterious charm when she speaks in this tone.
"How big does it cover the sky and the sun?" Liu Cang frowned and questioned. The sound of gold came from the sky. When Liu Cang raised his hand, gold swooped down and landed on his arm.
Jinzi now possesses many qualities of the eagle, the fighting ability of the eagle, the body shape of the ape-eater, and the speed and agility of Haidongqing.
Probably because the first batch of eagles hatched from the eggs of Liu Cang. When those eagles emerged from their shells, the gold absorbed their benign qualities.
Although the quality is still first level, it is already a strong, handsome and ferocious beast.
"The evil dragon has a huge body of hundreds of meters, and its tail can easily destroy a strong castle." Roxana answered Liu Cang's question, but the fleeting surprise in her eyes when she looked at Jin Zi was still seen by Liu Cang
.
"Zanna, don't challenge my patience. If you dare to talk nonsense in front of me again, huh.
"
Liu Cang had a cold face, looking up and down at Roxana, who was wrapped in fur, with an evil smile that made Roxana shiver. She seemed to be afraid, but her face gradually turned rosy.
With a complicated expression and biting her lip, the original mysterious temperament on Roxana's face instantly disappeared.
Nana, according to Roxana, there is that kind of creature flying around in Anxi, and it won’t be Rome’s turn to attack Anxi.
And based on Liu Cang's knowledge, if he had really seen that kind of creature, he would not be surprised at the sight of gold.
"Even if I haven't seen a giant dragon, I have really seen a giant eagle. There is a legend in Persia about a giant eagle fighting a giant dragon for the king of gods. Since there is a giant eagle, a giant dragon should also exist." Roxana carefully quibbled.
.
"Get lost." Liu Cang gave Roxana a simple and straightforward reply using the only Persian sentence he had learned for the time being.
No longer paying attention to Roxana, who looked aggrieved, she communicated with Jin Zi in her mind, and a picture of a cliff appeared in her mind.
There is a giant bird's nest on the cliff, and there are three huge eggs in the bird's nest.
Immediately afterwards, the scene changed, and a big black bird with a size more than five times that of gold was flying in the clouds, while a vulture that approached it was easily torn apart in the air. Surprise flashed in Liu Cang's eyes.
He asked Jin Jin to call back the nearby big withers, and he also had people rush to sew a large enough skin bag, and selected six big withers to transport them to cooperate with the egg-stealing instructions.
He also found dozens of falcons of various types. The hawks were too big and seemed to be very ferocious. Liu Cang was not sure whether his own hawks could defeat them, so he made some medicine bags filled with poison. Liu Cang prepared to let the flexible hawks fight.
Drug it with the falcon flying at a higher speed in the air.

Hua Xing's psychic ability requires energy support. After teaching six falcons to cooperate in stealing eggs, Liu Cang obviously did not have enough energy to teach the falcons to give medicine.
Liu Cang looked at Roxana again, and that strange and somewhat familiar look instantly put panic on Roxana's face.
He turned over and dismounted, pulled Roxana off the horse, and carried the charming Persian beauty. While the generals looked on strangely, Liu Cang carried Roxana into the big tent that had just been set up.
"this.
"Pan Feng twitched the corner of his mouth, but Dian Wei glared at him, and swallowed back what he wanted to say.
"Although this girl is charming, it is not good for the lord to be too fond of her." Jia Xu frowned, slightly worried, and whispered to Dian Wei.
"My lord, you are full of blood. If you just have a whim, it won't be a problem, right?" Dian Wei said nonchalantly.
"Well, I hope so.
" Jia Xu agreed, thinking to himself that maybe the lord should let his lord have more wives from good families.
At this time, Liu Cang blocked Roxana's lips with silk cloth and untied it to protect her waist.
Gu Sui must have come looking for the Immortal Sea. No one knew the details. Jia Xu drove people away from the surroundings of the big tent. There was not much movement inside, which made Jia Xu feel relieved.
Well, Roxana's karma has not been used up today. Liu Cang needs that kind of karma to communicate with the falcon, so he can only aggrieve her for the time being.
