Chapter 25: military strength
Just as Sun Chengshan and his apprentice were talking about guarding, the other party suddenly looked over here, and then came over with a few soldiers.
Sun Chengshan immediately closed his voice, cupped his hands and said, "I have seen Lord Guardian."
The guard was still in a bit of mood at this time, smiled and said: "It's not necessary, the purple coal ore you provided earlier helped me alleviate the shortage of coal and stone in the town some time ago, so that it will not cause more trouble, Sun. Brother, I would like to thank you."
"The guard is polite. I originally wanted to sell this ore. Since the guard needs it, I will sell it to you unconditionally." Sun Chengshan said politely.
The two exchanged a courtesy, because of the ore business, they knew each other.
As for Sun Chengshan, the guard has naturally investigated.
Whether it is the result of the kicking hall after the first visit to the island town, or the well-established shadowless boxing gym that has already been in operation, and then to the mining and processing of the ore veins this time.
All kinds of performances show that Sun Chengshan is a capable person.
When he was discussing and meeting before, he even thought about it, and wanted to recruit Sun Chengshan to his command, but unfortunately he was rejected by the other party.
Compared with working for the guard, Sun Chengshan is more willing to continue to run his own boxing gym.
"Sir guard, this tide is unusual. I will stick to this place, share your worries, and protect the safety of the people of the island town."
Speaking of the tide that is about to break out, Sun Chengshan suddenly became righteous and stood up with his hands behind his back to create a glorious image.
Wang Yu's mouth twitched when he saw the change.
I don't know who was excited about deep-sea treasure meat before, but now he says he is up for the country and the people.
"Okay, then thank you for your hard work." The guard said with a smile without breaking it.
The atmosphere of the conversation is not bad.
Wang Yu's attention fell on the great halberd held in the guard's hand. The halberd's pole was about the thickness of a forearm, and it looked extremely heavy.
The armor also worn by the guards is also very heavy and well-made, with brocade cloud patterns carved on it, giving people a sense of chill.
According to what Sun Chengshan said, this guard is a figure who came out of the battlefield, and his achievements are all the hard work he fought in his early years.
The several guards who followed behind were wearing uniform uniforms of the Nancy Imperial Army, the main color was dark blue with embroidered borders of auspicious clouds.
There is also a fine and small 'Lu' character printed on the neckline.
The guard's expression was always solemn, and he carefully guarded the surroundings with weapons in his hands.
Not to mention Zou Shou's majestic aura as deep as a mountain, it was these guards who brought a lot of pressure to Wang Yu.
To make him feel this way, these guards are at least about the fifth level of body forging, and are on the same level as his master Sun Chengshan.
And such an existence is just following the guard as an unrecognized personal soldier.
It made Wang Yu somewhat emotional.
From this point of view, he may not even have the qualifications to become such a personal soldier now.
I have to say that the strength in the army is indeed strong. I am afraid that there are many soldiers in the army who are as strong as these personal soldiers.
Think about it, if the army is not strong enough, how can it suppress the civilian warriors in the town, and protect the safety of the entire island town.
"Sir guard, Captain Lu Feng is looking for you." Not far away, a soldier ran quickly and reported in a hurry.
The guard nodded, immediately stopped the conversation, said goodbye to Sun Chengshan, and walked back.
The rain falling overhead began to pick up, making the entire sandy coast muddy.
The sediment was continuously rolled ashore by the waves, and some of the previously discharged garbage was also pushed back.
All of a sudden, a silent hiss like a sound from the abyss resounded across the entire coast and entered everyone's ears.
Everyone stopped and looked towards the source of the sound, on the dark and hazy sea.
A huge wave rolled up, and at the same time, a giant fish-like tail was half exposed, and then it slapped the huge waves heavily and disappeared in the huge waves.
"Is that... a sea whale?" Wang Yu asked in shock.
He was surprised that half the tail of the sea whale that emerged from the stormy sea was surprisingly large.
In analogy, this tail alone is equivalent to the size of a large sailboat.
It is hard to imagine what kind of giant outline the whole picture of that whale should be.
Even Sun Chengshan was shocked.
"It's not long since the Poison Sea has passed. Those who appear in the Silver Belt Sea at this time are basically not ordinary creatures, so it is very likely that it is a sea whale that survived in the Poison Sea!"
"So!" Song Hezheng widened his eyes, "That sea whale is also a treasure?"
"God, if we kill it, we can all eat together for a few years."
Wang Yu was stunned when he heard it, and then said: "I can't see that Senior Brother dares to think, I'm afraid that the sea whale can kill all of us with a tail pull, I think it's better not to hit this big guy's idea. for good."
He still adheres to the principle of doing what he can and being cautious and steady.
No matter how many precious materials and meat, if he is not 89% sure, he will not do it.
"Uh, that's what I said." Song Hezheng added in a low voice.
Sun Chengshan nodded and said, "Xiaoyu is right, that big guy had better not go ashore, and don't expect him to be stranded and slaughtered.
Generally, creatures that can become treasures have evolved unusual characteristics. If they come up, they can adapt to land movement. If this is the case, if it goes ashore, it will definitely be a catastrophe! "
Hearing what the master said, the disciples all turned pale, praying silently in their hearts not to come up.
The guard on the other side also stared at the giant sea whale and squeezed the halberd.
It wasn't until the giant whale disappeared for a long time that it didn't reappear, that it was a little relieved.
"As expected, under this heat wave, this year's tide is more severe than any previous year. Even such creatures that live in the 10,000-meter-deep sea area have come out!"
The guard's tone was extremely solemn.
"Fortunately, it didn't go ashore. It seems that it has no interest in us."
Beside the guard, a tall man also dressed in armor and holding a big iron spear spoke calmly.
He is the commander of the guards and is responsible for commanding the army camps and defenses in the area.
"Well, but we can't bet the fate of the island town on this uncertainty. The tide will last for a few days, and there is no guarantee that the situation will not get out of control." The guard said solemnly, with a decision in his heart.
The sergeant glanced at the guard and remained silent without asking any further questions.
By the afternoon, more and more warriors gathered outside the town.
Everyone is soaked by the rain, but no one will leave at this time.
Boom!
The waves crashed against the reef dam on the shore, making a deafening noise.
The water level had submerged the entire beach at this time, and most of the bluestone road at the port was submerged.
"It's almost there." The experienced local warriors saw this scene and knew that the sea beasts who were swept up in waves should appear.
Some daring ones have already approached the water level, trying to occupy some favorable terrain to block the sea beasts.
Sun Chengshan had also had three experiences before, and immediately took a group of disciples to a rocky slope.
It is not far from the current water level, it is condescending, and the safety is high.
Even if the water level rises again later, this place will not be flooded for a while.
And some weak and small fish, after being washed ashore by the tide, will get stuck in the cracks of this rubble.
Although their nutritional value is not too high, they can also be called treasures.
