Chapter 937: Giant's Relative
Chapter 937: The Giant's Relatives Outside, It's Dark. Tomato City was in a state of tranquility.
Taking a deep breath of the night breeze, Liang Xi's eyes flashed with silver threads in the night: "Emperor, is there anything in the Sunset Swamp and the Salt Ridge Forest?"
Jue Qingyang was thinking about how to open his mouth to Liang Xi, but he didn't expect Liang Xi to speak so bluntly, seeing a smile on the corner of Liang Xi's mouth, he knew that the other party had seen through his purpose, so he didn't plan to go around the bend anymore, and said: "It's not a salt ridge forest, it's just a sunset swamp." β
"Spirit beast?" Liang Xi asked tentatively.
Liang Xi had only faintly heard rumors before, saying that there were ancient beasts hidden in the depths of the Sunset Swamp, but it had never been confirmed.
The Sunset Swamp, known as the Sea of Death, is a muddy ground that can swallow people at any time.
Sometimes it is often a row of people walking, and suddenly one person sinks in, and before anyone else can blink, the mud ground is like a beast with an open mouth, completely devouring the prey.
The whole swamp is huge, and it can be said to be a graveyard for almost any living thing, so no one wants to go to that kind of place.
Occasionally, flocks of birds flying north and south disappear for no apparent reason as they cross the Sunset Everglades.
There are also several examples of cultivators flying over the Sunset Swamp and disappearing in history, so over time, there have been rumors that ancient beasts are hidden in the depths of the swamp.
No one knows if there are spirit beasts in the depths, but on the periphery of the Sunset Swamp, that is, in the huge forest and mountain range bordering the Sangqu River, there are a large number of spirit beasts, and there are also many middle-level spirit beasts.
What Liang Xi suspected now was that King Zhendong had taken a fancy to the spirit beast in the depths of the Sunset Swamp and wanted to use his own strength to destroy or subdue the spirit beast.
However, it was obvious that Liang Xi had guessed wrong, and Jue Qingyang shook his head and said, "It's not a spirit animal." β
"It's not a spirit beast, what is it?" Liang Xi raised his eyebrows, faintly moved.
The effect of the spirit beast on Liang Xi is actually not very big, at most it can only absorb some life essence.
If it's an artifact - the abacus in the heart of Liang Daguan crackled: "If you find an artifact near my territory, it will naturally be mine, and if you want to get a piece of the pie from me, you don't even have a door." β
"It's not an artifact either. Jue Qingyang shook his head again.
"What's that?" Liang Xi looked at Jue Qingyang in confusion, apart from these two, it was hard for him to imagine anything else that could arouse the interest of King Zhendong.
"Could it be money?" Liang Xi asked tentatively.
As he expected, the Emperor shook his head for the third time, "Not really. β
"What the hell is that?" Liang Xi pouted, "There is no way that there are people hidden in the Sunset Swamp." β
Hearing Liang Xi's words, the emperor's eyes fluctuated, and he nodded: "You are right this time, it is indeed a human being." β
"It's really fake!" Liang Xi was startled, "You are the emperor, you can't joke casually, a person will die if you walk three steps in a place like the Sunset Swamp, there is nothing else but mud, how can anyone live there." β
"Ordinary people naturally can't, and those who live there must not be ordinary people, otherwise I wouldn't have told you about it. Jue Qingyang's face was full of unfathomable smiles, and when he saw Liang Xi's faint appearance about to explode, he hurriedly said, "Little Brother Liang, you have been on the bank of the Sangqu River for so long, you should also know that you have three bandit gangs here." β
"Yes, I know, what's wrong?" Liang Xi wondered why Jue Qingyang suddenly turned the topic to the bandit gang.
"Then Little Brother Liang, do you know that in the red-haired demon army, one of the three major gangs, there is a Fengran giant?" Jue Qingyang asked as he stared at Liang Xi.
"I think I've heard it said. Liang Xi touched his chin and replied, "The leather armor on the robbers of the red-haired demon army is very fine, I'm afraid it's comparable to that of the regular army." β
When the red-haired demon army came to attack, Liang Xi noticed the sturdy and beautiful leather armor on those robbers.
Later, I learned from the captives that in the red-haired demon army, there was an entire tribe of Fengran giants making leather armor for them.
Despite their tall stature, the Giants are gentle and adept at handcrafting, showing an artistic talent that does not match their bulky size.
Thinking of this, Liang Xi looked at Jue Qingyang in confusion: "Does the Fengran Giant have anything to do with the Sunset Swamp?
Jue Qingyang wanted to shake his head, but when he saw Liang Xi's fists gradually clenched, he gave up all physical movements and said concisely: "The Sunset Swamp is not inhabited by the Fengran giant, but the relative of the Fengran giant, the Sunset Dwarf. β
"Sunset Dwarf, why haven't I heard of it?" Liang Xi blinked.
"The Sunset Dwarves migrated to the Sunset Swamp before the Seven Realms Melee, they were originally a simple race, and a melee caused a lot of historical materials to be lost, so there are naturally not many people in later generations who know about the existence of their race. Jue Qingyang explained.
Liang Xi soon discovered that there was a problem in this: "No, Emperor, you said that the Sunset Dwarf is a relative of the Fengran Giant? If I heard me correctly, one of their names is a giant, and the other is a dwarf, you tell me how short this dwarf is, don't be short compared to the five or six meters tall Fengran Giant, in fact, it is also three or four meters tall." β
Jue Qingyang was thinking about making a gesture on the city wall beside him, when three people from the Yi clan happened to pass by.
Jue Qingyang directly pointed at the Yi clan: "It's about the same as them." β
Liang Xi couldn't help but leaned in: "Since they are relatives, they must be related by blood, why is the gap so big, standing in front of the Fengran giant at this height, I'm afraid it's only up to the ankles!"
Jue Qingyang spread his hands: "Why they are related, I don't know, after all, it is a matter of the ancient relics." β
"What do you want these sunset dwarves to do?" Liang Xi pulled back the topic, "Do they have any extraordinary talents?"
Liang Xi suddenly noticed that when he was talking about the talent of the sunset dwarf, Jue Qingyang had a subconscious action of swallowing saliva.
This kind of behavior appeared on the emperor, and it was almost unimaginable.
"Sunset dwarvesβ" Jue Qingyang was slightly distracted, and then said to Liang Xi, "They have a strong talent for cooking, it can be said that they are the best and best chefs in the world, and no race can compare to them." β
"Chef?" Liang Xi's eyes widened, "Just for a meal, you want to beat the idea of a whole group of people?"
Jue Qingyang shook his head, as if he was reminiscing about some good memory: "Little Brother Liang, I dare to guarantee that as long as you have eaten a bite of the food cooked by the Sunset Dwarf, you will not know anything else in your life." They make things that taste like you'll never forget. When I was also young, I received a reward from His Majesty by chance, and I ate it once. β
