Donghai Tanggu can be said to be a forbidden place in the wilderness that makes people change their minds, even Qiao Yu and Ke Hanhuai are no exception.
That Tanggu was one of the four major exile places in the Great Wilderness. Among the five tribes, sinners who seriously violated the clan rules, except for the Shui tribe, were exiled here.
Because they were at the end of the world, with vast oceans, they were neither aquatic nor had boats, so it was absolutely impossible to escape back to the wilderness.
In addition, there are ten huge strange birds on Yuya Island, the Yuya Tokasu, guarding them. If anyone wants to escape from the island, they will be attacked by the Yuya Tokasu. After being tortured, Then he caught it and threw it on the hibiscus tree in Tanggu, where it was exposed to the scorching sun and soaked in the soup.
The Tanggu Ten-Day Bird was originally a sacred beast of the Wood Clan, and was also the imperial spirit beast of Yu Zhuocheng, the Qing Emperor of the Wood Clan six hundred years ago.
When Yu Zhuocheng passed through the East China Sea, he fought with the Dragon King. Although he defeated the six dragons of the East China Sea, he was exhausted and exhausted his true energy.
He went to Yudani on Yudani Island to heal his injuries, and after being seriously injured, he turned into a giant hibiscus tree.
The ten-day bird's mournful cry lingered in the sky, and it settled down in this soup valley. Because Yu Zhuocheng was serious and upright in person, and hated evil as much as hatred, the Great Wilderness Presbyterian Council designated this Tang Valley as the Great Wilderness Siguo Island.
All those who committed serious crimes were exiled here, and were guarded by Yu Zhuocheng's upright soul and the ten-day bird.
When everyone in the wilderness mentioned the words "Tangu", their expressions changed, because once they landed on this island, they would never leave. The rest of their lives would be long, surrounded by poor mountains and harsh waters.
When they heard that Song Xing said that the targets Mirage City wanted to recruit were actually the prisoners in Tanggu, both Qiao Yu and Duan Yukai changed their expressions, but Ke Hanhuai's eyes showed a hint of surprise.
Song Xing nodded and said: "I have learned that although there are some real criminals among the prisoners in Tang Valley, most of them resisted the tyranny of the five tribes and were exiled to the East China Sea. Those people are all the targets that Mirage City can fight for. "
Hearing this, Qiao Yu also showed a thoughtful look on his face: "In the past six hundred years, I don't know how many people have been exiled to Tanggu. Although it is difficult to survive there, there must be many people who survived. If we can gather those people, we can indeed It greatly increases the strength of Mirage City and can also be used as a surprise force."
Now that the God Emperor is dead, Zhulong is ambitious, coveting the position of God Emperor, and deliberately provoking a war in the wilderness. It can be foreseen that destroying Mirage City is only the first of Zhulong's many methods. He wants to destabilize the world in the future. To preserve Mirage City, we must use the fastest means to strengthen Mirage City's strength, as Song Xing said.
Qiao Yu was already moved by Song Xing's proposal.
Being able to survive in the cracks between the Shui Tribe and the Wood Tribe for thirty years, Qiao Yu is naturally not Moji's character. After making a decision in his heart, he resolutely asked: "May I ask the divine envoy if there is a good way to conquer those people?"
At this moment, huge waves sounded outside the city wall. The Nine Death Jingling Armor had swallowed up the huge water tribe holy beast, and appeared under the city wall covered in blood. Song Xing used the sealing technique to seal it into the Wufeng Sword again. , in the eyes of everyone who could not conceal their shock, he said:
"I am going to personally go to Tanggu and pardon them in the name of the God Emperor. Although they are out of trouble, there is still no place for them in the wilderness. I believe they are willing to return to Mirage City."
There are no water tribe prisoners in Yugu, and confidentiality is guaranteed.
Qiao Yu thought for a while and believed that this strategy was feasible. He pardoned the Tanggu prisoners in the name of the Shennong clan and jointly defeated the rebellious Zhulong. At least justice was on their side.
"When will the envoy prepare to leave?"
Song Xing said: "Without delay, the sooner the better, please City Lord, please prepare some ships and supplies for me. The battle will be decided. City Lord and Brother Ke, you still need to stay here and let Tuoba and Chi You go with me." "
Because Qiao Yu wanted to take control of Mirage City, and if Mirage City wanted to conquer the Tanggu prisoners, it was bound to send out people with enough weight to win people's trust. As Qiao Yu's only son, Chi You was enough to represent Mirage City.
Qiao Yu thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "That's fine, please rest assured, envoy, we will fully cooperate."
Song Xing nodded slightly, turned around and walked into the city.
Chi You, who had been fighting on the front line, stood in the crowd covered in blood, looking at Song Xing's back with admiration. When he saw Song Xing walking away, he couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Father, do we really want to join forces with Tang?" Valley?"
Qiao Yu said: "The idea of the divine envoy may be a bit extreme, but if you think about it carefully, this is the only way to break the situation in our Mirage City now. If we wait until the candle dragon sweeps in again, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist with the strength of these troops in the city. .”
"What's more." Qiao Yu pondered for a moment, glanced at Kehanhuai next to him, and said: "Since Zhulong has falsely accused the divine envoy of false identity, there will definitely be more sewage thrown at him later, and he will even instigate the other four tribes. Join the war.”
"Faced with this dilemma, the only way is to work together, clenching our fists, and forcibly find a way out, just like we did thirty years ago!"
Before setting off the next day, Kehanhuai suddenly found Song Xing and handed him the coral flute he had always carried with him, saying that it was a gift from the Dragon God of the East China Sea of the Sea Tribe when he traveled to the East China Sea. If things were not harmonious, You can take this flute to the East China Sea to borrow troops.
Song Xing put away his coral flute, kept this in mind, and took Tuoba Ye, Chi You, and some of the generals from Mirage City on several large ships toward Tanggu.
Although there was a chart to guide them, Mirage City selected the fastest ship, but by the time they arrived within the range of Yugu, ten days had passed.
At noon in autumn, the sun shines brightly, and the golden light sparkles on the turquoise sea.
"Angel, the island ahead is Yugu."
After receiving the report, Song Xing walked out of the cabin and looked east. The first thing that caught his eye was a towering tree on an island not far ahead.
The giant tree looks like a mulberry, with a diameter of thousands of meters. The leaves are ten feet wide. The branches are lush and break into the clouds. It is still dozens of miles away from the island, but even standing on the boat, the giant tree is clearly visible.
It would take more than tens of thousands of years for a tree to grow to such a huge size. Song Xing made a rough estimate and found that the tree was no smaller than the wooden tree he saw in the Shennongjia Abyss.
"Could this be the original building wood?"
This thought flashed through Song Xing's mind, and then he heard Chi You say next to him: "God's envoy, this is the incarnation of Qing Emperor Yu Zhuocheng six hundred years ago, the giant fusang tree. It is said that the sun rises from here."
Hearing the name of the Fusang tree, surprise flashed through Song Xing's eyes again.
"The Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Great Wilderness East Classic": "In the great wilderness, there is a mountain called Niyao. There is a buttress on it with pillars three hundred miles away, and its leaves are like mustard. There is a valley called Wenyuan Valley. There is a buttress on the Tang Valley, and one day It arrives in just one day and comes out in one day, all of which are carried in the crow. It reaches to the sky, winds and bends downward, leading to three springs."
Unexpectedly, there is actually a hibiscus tree corresponding to this place.
According to the myths and legends of later generations, the sun goddess Xi and the Great God drove up from here for her son Jinwu. The hibiscus tree connected the gates of the divine world, the human world, and the underworld, but later Yi stood on it and shot the sun, trampling it down, and humans It is difficult to communicate with the three realms of gods and underworld.
Chi You added: "It is said that the ten-day bird that guards the prisoners in Tanggu is perched on the hibiscus tree. It is the guard of the ten-day bird that makes it difficult for the prisoners to escape from Tanggu."
Song Xing shook his head and said: "There are no less than thousands of prisoners on the island, and they are all members of the four tribes who are armed with martial arts. Just ten spiritual beasts may not be able to trap these thousands of people. There may be other mysteries on the island. "(End of chapter)
