Chapter 86 Restricted Area
"Oh, Uncle Fang, you are here!"
"Hey, isn't this the chief arrester? You haven't been here for a while. {What? You don't know yet|Read COM, read the chapter without mistakes|Hurry up and google it}"
The madam shook her handkerchief and came forward with a smile.
Ding Zhigang put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "I have something big to do, so I have no time to get away. Oh, by the way, has Su Niang made an appointment with someone tonight?"
The madam smiled and said: "Not yet, but there are so many people who want to meet Su Niang and they are queuing up."
Ding Zhigang quickly turned to Fang Zhixing and whispered, "Brother, you haven't asked Butler Wen to reimburse the expenses of this operation, have you?"
Fang Zhixing was startled for a moment, then his mouth twitched slightly and he said speechlessly: "Not yet."
"Haha, great!"
Ding Zhigang was overjoyed and patted Fang Zhixing on the shoulder, "Brother, I've been short of money lately, so I'm counting on you tonight."
Fang Zhixing gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Qingqing dragged me to Hanxiang Tower so enthusiastically just for free sex. You are so stingy."
Ding Zhigang laughed awkwardly and said: "Isn't this what I want to learn from my brother? In this life, you should always enjoy what it's like to be ordered to go whoring."
Fang Zhixing laughed and said, "Yes, yes, all the expenses incurred by brother tonight will be recorded on my head."
He turned to the madam, flicked his finger, and then a golden bean bullet hit the madam's face.
The madam caught it hurriedly, with a smile on her face, and said: "You two gentlemen, please go ahead and sit in the hall for a while, drink some wine, I will go and ask Su Niang."
As she spoke, she waved, and then two young and beautiful girls twisted their waists and trotted over.
"Girls, please serve Coach Fang and Boss Ding well."
The old madam shouted, turned around and went upstairs.
The two girls came forward and bowed.
"The slave's name is Wu Cui."
"My name is Erying."
One of the two girls has yellowish skin, and the other has cute freckles on her face.
Fang Zhixing took a liking to the freckled girl at first sight. She was very cute, her facial features looked very comfortable, her voice was cute, and more importantly, she had long legs and a big house.
The freckled girl was Wu Cui. She understood Fang Zhixing's eyes and immediately came closer and took his arm enthusiastically.
Another girl, Erying, seeing this, naturally took Ding Zhigang's arm, pulled them into the hall, found a seat to sit down, and served wine.
Fang Zhixing and Ding Zhigang drank a few glasses of wine leisurely to warm their stomachs.
"Uncle, please be gentle, you are hurting my family."
At this time, there was a noise and a girl was complaining.
Fang Zhixing frowned slightly, turned his head, and then noticed that there were three burly men wearing animal skins sitting in front of a table not far away.
These three people have broad shoulders and strong bodies, and are clearly members of the Lian family.
They drank and ate meat as if no one else was watching, and they acted recklessly and rudely towards the girl in their arms, touching her with their hands.
One of them was a burly man with missing front teeth. He was very rough and liked to pinch the girl's butt. His hands were very strong, which made the girl miserable, with tears in her eyes and aggrieved.
Seeing this scene, Fang Zhixing asked: "Brother, who are these people?"
Ding Zhigang glanced at them, said oh, with a look of disdain on his face, and introduced: "They are restricted area hunters. They are desperadoes who specially run into dangerous restricted areas to hunt exotic animals. They are all a group of desperate people."
"Forbidden Zone Hunter!"
Fang Zhixing raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but asked curiously: "Brother, have you been to the restricted area?"
"Of course I have!"
Ding Zhigang had just had a few glasses of wine, and his words became particularly dense and eloquent, "Every spring, adults go to the restricted area for a hunting trip, and I will definitely accompany him."
Fang Zhixing was suddenly stunned and said thoughtfully: "I have never been to the restricted area. What is it like there?"
Ding Zhigang clicked his tongue and said with emotion: "The restricted area is well-deserved. The inside and the outside are completely two worlds. Have you ever seen a snake with three heads?"
Fang Zhixing shook his head.
Ding Zhigang raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp, wiping his mouth and saying: "In the restricted area, there are strange creatures like three-headed snakes everywhere. Most of them are cruel in nature and choose people to eat."
Fang Zhixing couldn't help but take a deep breath, thought about it, and asked doubtfully: "Won't the strange beasts in the restricted area come out and harm people?"
"Yes, but very rarely!"
Ding Zhigang explained: "Exotic animals often have a strong sense of territory. Their range of activities is limited to a certain area. They will only migrate unless there is no food in that area."
Knowing what was going on, he reached into his arms, took out a map, and spread it out on the table.
Seeing this, Ding Zhigang was surprised and said: "What, brother, do you want to play in the restricted area?"
Fang Zhixing nodded and said, "Well, I'm short of meat pills, so I have to find a way to make more."
Ding Zhigang thought about it, but Fang Zhixing was different from him. His cultivation had already stagnated, and he himself was discouraged. He almost gave up on cultivation, lost his former glory and ambition, and just wanted to be content with the status quo and live his life. One day at a time.
But Fang Zhixing is different. He is still very young. As long as he is willing to work hard, he may not be able to reach a higher level in the future.
Thinking of this, Ding Zhigang couldn't help but feel a little complicated, and he couldn't help but think about and reminisce about the past.
A decadent middle-aged uncle, seeing the youthful young people full of vigor, was inevitably touched in his heart.
Suddenly, Fang Zhixing raised his head, pointed at the map, and asked:
"Brother, we have a total of five restricted areas in Qinglin County.
On the map, the words 'one', 'two', 'one', 'one', and 'three' are marked next to these five restricted areas respectively. What do these numbers represent? "
Ding Zhigang smiled and said: "It represents the danger level, which is the level of the most dangerous alien beast in a certain restricted area.
For example, if it is marked with 'two', it means that the most powerful beast in that restricted area is the second level.
Of course, this map is just a reference. "
Fang Zhixing understood and thought: "What if someone encounters a third-level alien beast in the second-level restricted area?"
Ding Zhigang smiled and said: "Then the map must be changed, so if you really want to go to the restricted area, it is best to buy the latest version of the map, the information is relatively accurate."
Only then did he realize that he was deeply convinced.
Then, he stood up, holding the wine glass, and walked to the table of the three sturdy men.
The three burly men looked at Fang Zhixing carefully, and suddenly saw the two brands on his waist. Their expressions suddenly changed and they restrained their behavior.
Fang Zhixing smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, I want to ask you about something."
The three of them looked at each other, and one of them, a tall man, immediately stood up, nodded and bowed and said, "Master, please sit down."
Fang Zhixing sat down, spread the map on the table, and asked directly: "May I ask the three brothers, which of these five restricted areas have you been to?"
The sturdy man replied: "Master, our three brothers are all Guanli realm warriors. We only dare to venture into the first-level restricted area."
He raised his hand and clicked twice on the map, "We have been to these two restricted areas."
Fang Zhixing understood and asked: "If I want to enter the restricted area, is there anything I need to pay special attention to?"
Speaking of this, the sturdy man said more: "There are too many things that need to be paid attention to. For example, remember not to go into the restricted area alone. It is best to find a few more people to go with you. At least one of your companions must understand medical skills." for treatment.
If that doesn't work, you should prepare some extra detoxification packs, insect repellent powder, and quick hemostatic sore medicine.
For another example, the plants and creatures in the restricted area are very weird and bizarre. Before you identify what they are, don't touch them at will, let alone eat them.
Also, the environment in the restricted area is extremely complex and it is easy to get lost, which is the scariest thing.
I remember one time, not long after we entered the restricted area, a heavy fog suddenly appeared. After the fog cleared, several of us got lost, unable to find the east, west, north, and south, and were almost trapped to death.
Fortunately, we happened to meet another hunting team who kindly took us out, otherwise we would have been dead. "
Speaking of that experience, the three sturdy men all had expressions of sadness and fear.
Only then did he know what he was doing, and asked them about the names of some medicines they often carried and used well, and wrote them down.
Finally, he asked: "Under normal circumstances, how is the selling price of exotic beasts calculated?"
The sturdy man replied: "The price of ordinary first-level exotic beasts ranges from one thousand to thirty thousand, and the price of ordinary second-level alien beasts is double or even triple or quadruple.
Of course, the selling price of exotic beasts actually mainly depends on their practical value and rarity.
For example, the price of some extremely rare first-level exotic beasts is often higher than that of ordinary second-level exotic beasts. "
Fang Zhixing quickly understood.
About ten minutes later, the madam walked downstairs with an apologetic look on her face. She spread her hands and said, "I'm sorry, gentlemen. Something unexpected happened. Su Niang suddenly had her menstruation. It's inconvenient to see guests tonight." .”
"Ah, what a bloody mouthful!"
Fang Zhixing smiled, but it didn't matter.
However, Ding Zhigang, who wanted to have sex for free, became depressed and called out bad luck, this was bad luck.
After losing all his money gambling, he went out for prostitution and met his aunt.
Finally, he viciously nodded at the two girls and entered the room hugging each other.
Fang Zhixing smiled, took the freckled girl's hand, walked into the room and closed the door.
This time the little dog didn't make a fuss, but the dog's face was full of resentment and all kinds of displeasure, and he kept chewing on the guardrail of the house.
After a while, Ding Zhigang ran out of the room again. In a hurry, he bought a bottle of aphrodisiac wine, poured it into his mouth, and then returned to the room.
The night passed quickly.
The next morning, Fang Zhixing got up, stretched, and pushed out the door with a satisfied expression.
The thin dog was lying at the door, sound asleep.
He chewed a row off the fence pole next to him.
Fang Zhixing kicked him and woke him up.
Xigou opened his eyes drowsily, yawned, followed Fang Zhixing downstairs, and asked in a whimpering voice: "You're leaving now, don't you wait for Ding Zhigang to go back with you?"
Fang Zhixing responded: "Let's go to the Zhubing Hall first, check some information, and buy a new map to prepare."
Xigou perked up and said happily: "Are we really going to the restricted area?"
Fang Zhixing nodded and said: "The rebels have died down, and they dare not make any big moves for the time being. Taking advantage of this opportunity, we must seize the time to collect supplies."
Think about it too.
They left Hanxiang Tower, had some breakfast at the food stall outside, and then rode to Zhubing Hall.
"Master Fang Xiang, you are here!"
As soon as the guard of Zhubing Hall saw Fang Zhixing, he immediately saluted and let him go.
Fang Zhixing successfully entered the interior and went straight to the first floor hall of Xuanwu Pavilion without stopping.
The person on duty is a young man with thick eyebrows.
When Fang Zhixing came here last time, the same person received him, and they had met each other.
"Master Fang Xiang, would you like to check out the exercises or look at something else."
The young man with thick eyebrows was a little shy and a little shy, and he said hello with a red face.
Fang Zhixing asked: "Is there any information on the restricted area?"
"Yes, I will take you there!"
The young man with thick eyebrows stretched out his hand in an inviting gesture and took Fang Zhixing to the fourth and fifth rows at the back.
"Most of the books and scrolls on the two rows of bookshelves here are closely related to the restricted area."
The young man with thick eyebrows is familiar with the roads.
Fang Zhixing nodded and said: "Okay, I can check it by myself, you can go and do it."
The young man with thick eyebrows quickly excused himself.
Fang Zhi walked to the bookshelf, glanced back and forth, and raised his hand to take down a book "Alien Beasts".
As the name suggests, this book mainly introduces exotic beasts.
"The common characteristic of alien beasts is that they are larger, more ferocious, and more poisonous than wild beasts."
Fang Zhixing glanced at the previous article briefly and then turned to the first page.
"Fire Ant: A first-class alien beast, living in groups, two to three times larger than ordinary ants, red in color, with black spots on its forehead."
"Fire ants are omnivorous animals. Most of them live on the surface or underground. A few of them have red wings and can fly."
"Fire ants are poisonous. After being bitten, the wound will quickly swell and become extremely itchy. It is difficult to suppress with ordinary drugs, so you can only endure it."
"Although individual fire ants are first-level exotic beasts, because of their relatively large number, the danger level is often regarded as second-level."
"Precautionary method, once you are attacked by a swarm of fire ants, the best way is to jump into the river."
The first page was read quickly.
"It's a pity that there is only a text introduction and no accompanying pictures."
Fang Zhixing had never seen fire ants, so he could only imagine what they looked like out of thin air.
Page Two: Human-Faced Moth
Page Three: Bloody Spider
Page 4: Soul-sucking Leech
…
There are many kinds of exotic beasts, and there are indeed many strange and indescribable shapes.
"Why does it look more and more like a stitch monster?!"
Fang Zhixing had a strange feeling in his heart.
For example, there is a "Flying White Ape", a second-level alien beast, with the outline of an ape, as well as bird wings and cow horns.
In short, it feels a bit like Classic of Mountains and Seas.
The more Fang Zhixing continued to look, the deeper his frown became. Gradually, his brows grew as high as a mountain peak.
Seeing this, Xigou asked curiously: "What did you see? You look like you are holding back your urine."
Fang Zhixing responded: "Don't you find it strange? The alien beasts all look so weird, cruel and ferocious, and seem to eat people for fun, but their range of activities is limited to the restricted area."
Xigou blinked and said, "What's so strange about this? Didn't Ding Zhigang say that alien beasts have territorial awareness and will not run around randomly."
Fang Zhixing shook his head and said: "I always feel that things are not that simple. You are also a strange beast. Will you only stay in one place?"
Xigou asked back: "What do you mean? Are the alien beasts controlled by some mysterious force within the restricted area?"
Fang Zhixing pondered for a moment, then read more information, one after another.
"really!"
After a long time, Fang Zhixing's expression changed and he became thoughtful.
There is no document that records how the restricted area was formed.
The restricted area seems to have existed there since the beginning of heaven and earth, independent of the outside world.
The alien beasts also seem to have been operating within the restricted area from the beginning, rarely coming out to disturb the outside world.
There is no conflict between the two sides.
This is weird!
Alien beasts can obviously eat people!
“The more I look at it, the more it looks like it’s being kept in captivity!!”
Fang Zhixing couldn't help but make a bold guess.
