The first thousand three hundred and forty-eight chapters hibiscus
After understanding what the close door was, Sun God looked at Yu Sheng differently.
With this gate within easy reach, they could advance, attack, retreat and defend. They could completely rely on this city to block the giants here.
As long as we persist for a while, these giants will starve to death.
He took a step forward and held Yu Sheng's hand cordially, "Shopkeeper Yu, you are finally here! Let's quickly put up the door just a stone's throw away!"
Of course Yu Sheng was happy to be so cooperative with the sun god, "I have to take over a house as an inn first, and then I can erect the door just a stone's throw away."
"Simple." Rishen turned around and pointed to the house behind him, "You choose a room, or do you want me to give you my City Lord's Mansion?"
"Farewell." Yu Sheng looked at the rows of buildings behind him, along the street, and green shadows rising up in the dark night.
Among them, the tallest one is on the top of the mountain. It is solemn and simple in the night. It is the Temple of the Sun in Sun City.
Yu Sheng asked the Sun God, "I heard that the giants' goal is the Sun Temple. You don't know why?"
This news came from the Black Giant and the others.
Beside the bonfire in the camp, the words that the giants discussed, such as summoning the divine bird from the temple, melting the head and body of the Xingtian Warrior, and helping the divine bird kill the King of the East Wilderness, were passed word by word to Yu Sheng's ears.
The Sun God nodded, "I know that. The three-legged crow and the giants both came from chaos. Later, the Kuafu clan worshiped the sun, chased the sun, and regarded the three-legged crow as a sacred bird. After they were driven out of Donghuang by the King of Donghuang
, they used all the strength of the giants here to build the Sun Temple of the Sun City."
They hope to summon the three-legged crow to deal with the King of Donghuang together and fight to the death with the King of Donghuang.
But unexpectedly, the three-legged crow actually stood on this side of Donghuang, so the scene of Sun chasing Kuafu appeared.
"Now that the Three-legged Crow has imprisoned King Donghuang, he is obviously no longer Kuafu's enemy, so they want to use the temple to summon the Three-legged Crow again." Rishen said.
"Isn't this bird a grasshopper? It will fall wherever the wind is strong." Yu Sheng said.
He then asked the sun god how these giants summoned the three-legged crow.
The Sun God told Yu Sheng that in the Temple of the Sun, there was a formation, and the center of the formation was a hibiscus tree.
"What, hibiscus wood?" Yu Sheng was surprised, "Where did they get it?"
The hibiscus tree is a sacred tree. It is ever-changing and has no permanent shape. Sometimes one tree can have thousands of branches, and a single tree can form a forest.
The three-legged crow can only perch and settle on the hibiscus tree, just like a phoenix perching on the sycamore tree.
As for other things, no matter what they are, they will be reduced to ashes under the flames of the three-legged crow.
In this world, hibiscus trees only exist in one place, that is, in the blue sea east of the East China Sea.
In other words, hibiscus wood is the property of Donghuang.
"The origin of the hibiscus wood in the hands of the giant Kuafu? That's a long time ago." Sun God said.
It has been so long that most people in this world have long forgotten that Kuafu had hibiscus wood in his hand.
However, because there is a hibiscus tree in the temple, Sun God specially went to learn about this ancient history.
In the legend of giants, a long time ago, one of the leaders of the Kuafu giants who believed in the three-legged crow had a whim and wanted to chase the sacred bird and find the place where the sacred bird rested.
So this scene appeared:
A Kuafu chased the sun and kept running across the wilderness, sometimes to the west, sometimes to the place where the sun rises.
The so-called Kuafu chases the sun, and the day chases the Kuafu, this is exactly where it comes from.
Obviously, Kuafu can't catch the magical bird like this.
So one day, Kuafu decided to go to sea to find the place where the three-legged crow originated.
He went to the blue sea east of the East China Sea and wandered for an unknown amount of time. Just when he was about to feel discouraged, a hibiscus forest appeared in front of him.
In the hibiscus forest, several three-legged crows were playing and fighting.
At that time, King Donghuang was out, so Giant Kuafu was able to enter the Fusang Forest unimpeded and expressed his admiration to the Three-legged Crow.
Coincidentally, the ten-headed and three-legged crows were controlled by King Donghuang, and only one of them could go out for fun a day, which was very boring.
They have always wanted to be able to roam freely between heaven and earth.
Seeing that the Kuafu giant worshiped them so much, the divine birds gave him a drop of the sun's blood and asked him to cut down the hibiscus trees in the hibiscus forest and build a sun temple so that when they went out, they could descend on the hibiscus trees and get closer to them.
Watch the various happenings in the wilderness.
Kuafu complied with the instructions one by one, and finally floated westward with the fusang wood in his arms, back to the wilderness, and began to build the Sun Temple in the place where the Kuafu clan was active.
Later, during the war between King Donghuang and the giants, the Fuso trees were either taken back by King Donghuang or destroyed.
Finally, "This is the last hibiscus tree in this temple." Sun God said.
Therefore, if the giants want to summon the sun bird, they must be in this sun temple.
As for the Kuafu blood used in the summoning, it was to use the sun blood in the blood of the Kuafu clan to summon the arrival of the divine bird.
"That's not right." Yu Sheng was puzzled, "Can Kuafu get close to the three-legged crow?"
After Yu Sheng received the mission [Reincarnation Wine] some time ago, he needed the "Blood of the Sunset", so he has been thinking about this issue.
The three-legged crow's flame is the law. Anything outside the hibiscus tree will be instantly reduced to ashes when touched.
How to get close to the three-legged crow and obtain the blood of the setting sun is a problem.
"You can get closer." Sun God nodded, "Fuso wood is ever-changing and has no permanent shape. It can help the giant block the light of the three-legged crow."
Yu Sheng nodded, now he understood why the giants had to enter the Sun Temple.
And if he wants to get the blood of the setting sun, he must have the help of Fusang wood, and he also needs the blood of Kuafu.
Yu Sheng pondered for a moment, raised his head and said to the Sun God: "How about we build the inn in the Sun Temple?"
"What?!" Sun God was stunned, "Is it appropriate to build it in the Temple of the Sun?"
"It's suitable, very suitable." Yu Sheng said.
He occupied the Sun Temple in advance to see what other flowers those giants could come up with.
Since Yu Sheng insisted on building an inn in the Sun Temple, Sun God did not refuse much and immediately led Yu Sheng towards the Sun Temple.
The Temple of the Sun is on the top of the mountain.
They passed through battlefields littered with corpses, passed through ruins with broken walls, and climbed all the way up ancient stone stairs.
Each step on the stone staircase is very wide and paved with thick bluestone slabs. You don’t need to think about it, you will know for the rest of your life that these are the masterpieces of giants.
On the way, Yu Sheng asked the Sun God, "As the Sun God, do you also believe in the three-legged crow?"
"No!" Sun God shook his head, "I believe in the Eye of Chaos."
"Eye of Chaos?" Yu Sheng stopped and looked at Sun God doubtfully, "What is that?"
"The first light of the world can also be said to be the source of the flames on the three-legged crow." Sun God said with a smile.
Yu Sheng still didn't understand, and Sun God didn't explain much, "When you get to the Sun Temple, you will understand everything."
When I went to the Temple of the Sun for the rest of my life, the giant in front of the Salted Fish Inn was facing the temptation just outside the door.
Just now, there were footsteps suddenly inside the door.
The giant and the others hurriedly backed away, knelt down to check, and saw a group of ordinary people and monsters moving the stove into the yard inside the door.
They lit a fire, set up the stove, and started cooking on the spot.
"Two portions of twice-cooked pork!" "One portion of spicy chicken!" "Two portions of hot kidneys from Yushi Inn!" "A pot of Shaoxing wine!"
Inside the door, waiters came out from various inns in Zhonghuang from time to time, reporting the names of dishes.
There are people who specialize in preparing dishes. After hearing the news, they prepare the dishes directly. The cooks start stir-frying. The aroma of the food rises up in the "sizzling" oil pan and passes through the door very close to the door.
In the noses of giants.
When the waiters were carrying away the dishes and serving them to the guests, they would pass by the door very close to them intentionally or unintentionally.
There is a bright light in front of the door, which shines on these meals, making the giants salivate with their fragrant aroma.
Finally, the giants couldn't bear it anymore.
Elder Xingtian waved and ordered the Xingtian clan giant at the door, "You, go in and grab those meals for me!"
Of course, let's take a look and see what's weird inside this door.
"Yes!" The Xingtian giant knew that in this matter, it was not appropriate for the elder to order giants from other tribes.
He didn't shirk away, lowered his head, leaned over, and got through the door just a short distance away, while protecting his head with a weapon.
The ambush he expected was not there. He raised his head and saw those monsters. They continued to do what humans should do and turned a blind eye to him.
