"How did you know that was An Qing?" Hang Shiqi squatted on a stone at the bottom of the mountain and asked Ao Wu curiously.
"First, this year, except for a few casualties in the hunting team in the battle with the Western Front a few days ago, there has been no other attrition of the hunting team in the past two years. Only An Qing died in the battle at the dock at the beginning of the year. Chapter 1
Second, Shu Ran was present when An Qing died, maybe he could really take away his soul. Third, An Qing himself grew up in a presbytery. He liked to read all kinds of documents and had a good memory. If it is said that in the hunting team,
Who is most likely to know the location of this secret passage, it must be him."
After Ao Wu analyzed his inference process for Hang Qi, he pinched Hang Qi's ears and said, "Actually, it was you who reminded me. Don't just guess at living people. The other person is probably in a similar situation to you.
It was after he died that his memory was erased and he was made into a cocoon orc. But now it seems that his situation is somewhat different from yours. At least he still retains his previous knowledge. From this point of view, the other person who made the cocoon orc
The ability seems to have been further strengthened."
Hang Shiqi nodded when he heard this: "Well, now, Shuang Yu has a brother again, and An Qing has no previous memories, and will no longer hate Shuang Yu, so they can get along well."
As he spoke, he caught a glimpse of the figure coming down the mountain, stood up and said, "Shuangyu seems to be back."
"Your Highness." Shuang Yu had already figured out on the way down the mountain that Ao Wu should have guessed An Qing's identity a long time ago before deliberately sending him there. When he came down, sure enough, the two of them looked at him with no surprise at all. Shuang Yu
He took out the information given by An Qing from his pocket and handed it to Ao Wu.
"Does he still recognize you?" Ao Wu asked after taking the information.
Shuangyu shook his head and chuckled: "Of course I don't remember. His original memory has been completely erased and cannot be restored. Only the knowledge and skills he once learned are retained."
Ao Wu nodded, this situation was similar to what he thought. He asked again: "What conditions did the other party put forward?"
"He wants to be free, and I have already agreed." Shuang Yu said, "I think you won't mind me making my own decisions, otherwise you wouldn't let me see him without knowing his identity."
"Yes." Ao Wu indeed meant this, and the other party's request was within his expectations. Ao Wu opened the information in his hand, and the information above was somewhat beyond expectations. It seems that An Qing has not been idle in Dongye during this period.
He spent a lot of time thinking about getting rid of the cocoon rat and regaining his freedom.
According to the information, the Cocoon Priest used the method of life sacrifice to enable the new batch of Cocoon Orcs to retain more consciousness despite erasing their memories, and could understand and execute more complex commands. Of course, people like him have complete selves.
Consciousness is still rare.
At the same time, the production cycle of the Cocoon Orcs was shortened from one year to two months, plus one month of training, it is three months.
In other words, the opponent's next attack will be in three months.
The information also mentioned that it was not recommended that they storm the fortress during this period, as this would actually fall into the trap of the Cocoon Priest.
The other party wanted to use the minimum sacrifice of the cocoon orcs in exchange for the maximum casualties of the frost wolves through the city defense battle, and then wait for an opportunity to take more souls to make a new batch of cocoon orcs.
It is not recommended that they forcibly enter Dongye territory to search, because the people of Dongye do not know what is happening in the outside world. Yun Wulan has implemented an information blockade in Dongye territory, and claimed to the people that the Wolf King had betrayed his faith and united with other royal families to annex Dongye.
Moreover, all the beast tribes in Dongye are very sensitive. Attacking at this time will only push them to the opposite side.
Finally, and the most critical part of the entire information, it is said that the resurrected cocoon rats are different from the cocoon orcs in that their souls are not completely accepted by the body. So they set up a large soul-solidifying array on the mainland. The location of the array eye,
This is the current stronghold where cocoon orcs and resurrected cocoon rats are made. As long as the formation in this stronghold is found and destroyed, all resurrected cocoon rats will perish. However, the information says that he has been searching for a long time but has not found any relevant information about the location of the stronghold.
Those people kept the secret a secret, and An Qing could only confirm that the location of the stronghold was not within Dongye territory.
"This information is very useful." Ao Wu put the information away after reading it.
Shuang Yu sighed: "Brother has always been very powerful."
It's a pity that his father was always prejudiced against him in the past, and he couldn't tolerate it, so he finally pushed himself into a dead end. Otherwise, with An Qing's intelligence, whether he stayed in the hunting team or joined the Elders' House, he should be able to become
A very good orc.
"Let's go." Ao Wu put away the information. The purpose of this trip has been achieved. There is no need to stay here and continue to take risks.
After Ao Wu returned to the northern border, he mobilized his troops to surround the fortress, but he did not attack the fortress. He just made a gesture of wanting to fight the enemy.
At the same time, Ao Wu contacted the kings of the Crane Tribe, the Liger Tribe, and the Iron Bear Tribe, and disclosed the information he had to them.
Everyone discussed and planned to use these three months to search all over the continent to find out the location of the stronghold. However, in order to hide it from the eyes of Cocoon Rat, the search could only be carried out secretly.
They divide the work privately and are each responsible for their own territory. The Iron Bear Clan is additionally responsible for the search within the Flame Valley. After all, the current status of the Flame Valley is rather embarrassing due to the previous incident. Only the Iron Bear Clan has a harmonious relationship with them and can freely enter and exit the Flame Valley.
.
On the other side, after Yun Wuzhen, Ao Wu and his party parted ways, they drove for another ten days and finally hurried back to Dongye King City.
The royal city of Dongye, named Yunlan, is called a city built on the clouds. In fact, because of the humid climate, fog often condenses, and the city is surrounded by undulating hills and rivers that flow through it. On sunny days, the river water reflects on the sky.
There are clouds, and Yunlan City seems to be attached to the clouds. On foggy days, the fog shrouds the city, and Yunlan City seems to fall into the clouds.
Yun Wuzhen entered from the west of the city and hurried towards the highest hill of the royal city, where the royal palace is located.
As soon as he entered the palace, Yun Wuzhen noticed that something was wrong. Not long after he left, why did the guards of the palace look jealous.
Not the fox tribe he was familiar with, but a group of strangers.
Yun Wuzhen didn't expect that before he even asked, the other party would draw the knife first: "Stop, what are you doing?"
Hu Yi stepped in front of Yun Wuzhen and said, "Zangzhi, this is the young prince of Dongye, Yun Wuzhen. His Royal Highness the King Fox's younger brother."
But the other party didn't buy it at all. He waved his hand and said, "Catch him first."
"Who dares?" Fox Two, Fox Three, and Fox Four also took a step forward, seeing that the battle was about to break out.
"Stop." A young girl's crisp voice sounded. Shu Ran walked towards this side with brisk steps.
The gatekeeper obediently put away his weapon and saluted: "My lord."
Sir? Yun Wuzhen looked at the girl in front of him. He had never seen Shu Ran, but he recognized that she was from the Yao Rabbit clan. When did the girls from the Yao Rabbit clan come to the Higashino Palace to become adults?
He soon realized that the opponent was probably not a medicine rabbit, but a resurrected cocoon rat. And those around him were not guards, but cocoon orcs.
"Young prince, you are well." Yun Wuzhen didn't recognize Shuran, but Shuran still recognized him. Back in Yuehua City, this man cooperated with Ao Wu in acting and ruined their good deeds. Later, Hang Shiqi and Ao Wu
Wu successfully escaped from Nanxia, and he seemed to be secretly assisting him.
This skin is really beautiful. If he were not Yun Wulan's younger brother, Shuran would really like to snatch his beautiful body and make it her own.
"Who are you?" Yun Wuzhen felt the greedy and coveted gaze of the other party. Yun Wuzhen felt a little uncomfortable and asked in a bad tone: "Where is my brother?"
Shu Ran threw away the unnecessary thoughts in his mind. Yun Wuzhen couldn't move. After all, he was still Yun Wulan's younger brother. Besides, Yun Wuzhen had a more important role than changing himself into a better-looking shell.
He took a step back and smiled kindly: "His Royal Highness King Yunhu is naturally in the palace, shall I take you there?"
"No, you ask them to get out of the way, and I'll go look for it myself." Yun Wuzhen shook off his sleeves, led his men, and strode into the palace.
He knew that the eldest brother was usually in the study at this time, so he went straight there. He walked in a hurry and his steps were chaotic, just as chaotic as his mood at this time. The eldest brother actually cooperated with Cocoon Rat, and even let Cocoon Rat
People from the Yunhu tribe lived in the palace, so where did the other Yunhu tribe go? Do they know about this?
Yun Wuzhen walked into the study room and saw his elder brother sitting behind the desk, concentrating on his official duties as usual. He paused again and had some unrealistic fantasies. If only what he had experienced before was all hallucinations.
Unfortunately, this fantasy was broken when Yun Wulan spoke: "Are you back? Come in and sit down. I know you should have a lot to ask me. It just so happens that I have always wanted to have a good talk with you."
What were we talking about? About how we betrayed the Frostwolf clan, or why we colluded with the Cocoon Rats? Yun Wuzhen swallowed these somewhat angry words, walked into the study like an adult, sat in front of Yun Wulan's desk, and shouted:
"Brother."
Yun Wulan sighed with some emotion: "I know what you want to ask. I have cooperated with Cocoon Rat earlier than you think. It has been more than ten years now. It can even be said that Cocoon Rat can
Today's achievements are all supported by me. You still remember Yun Qing, right?"
Yun Wuzhen's expression was stunned: "It was that time..."
"Yes, at that time, Yun Qing's research on forbidden arts was actually my instruction. But I didn't expect that it got out of control. In order to give an explanation to the people, I had to arrange for him to fake his death, and then secretly sent him to Nanxia.
Later he met a cocoon rat in Southern Xia, which was a blessing in disguise."
"I don't understand." Yun Wuzhen said: "Eldest brother is already the king of Dongye, why do you still bother with this? What do you want?"
"I want..." Yun Wulan chuckled, the ambition in his eyes unabashedly revealed: "I want this continent to submit to Yunhu's governance, and I want all the wealth in the world to belong to me.
Yes, I want to do something that no one has done in this thousand years. I want to live forever and be the only king of this world forever."
"Are you crazy?" Yun Wuzhen shook his body, unable to believe that this was the elder brother he had known for twenty years. He had always been humble, gentle, wise and calm.
"I am very clear-headed. I have thought this way since the moment I took over the throne. No, ever since before, when I was led by my father to attend the meeting of seven royal clans for the first time." Yun Wulan looked at Yun Wulan.
Really, his eyes were burning: "Seven royal families, why? We Yunhu are obviously the best race in the world. Whether it is appearance or brain, we are superior to other races. Why should we be on an equal footing with the other six races?
, or even treated as a vassal of the North?"
"In the final analysis, the North is just a group of reckless men who can fight. In terms of strength, we have the strongest priest technique, but it is sealed as a forbidden technique. What can I say... I am afraid that it will backfire, lose control, and cause devastation to all living beings.
. Ridiculous, when the seven royal families were established, the hands of the Na clan were really clean again? Who didn’t walk on the blood to step onto the throne. When the world surrenders to me, I will naturally govern it well. Who cares about me then?
What kind of world can I get? They will only be grateful to my kindness."
Yun Wuzhen opened his mouth, but found that he didn't know how to persuade him. He thought of many words of persuasion on the way, but none of them were used. It turned out that he had never understood his elder brother.
He could only stand up and say: "I can't agree with your point of view. But I can't persuade you. Brother, take care. I'm leaving first."
Yun Wulan raised his head: "Where are you going? To continue helping Ao Wu deal with me, or to contact those old guys in the clan? Do you think you can leave?"
Yun Wuzhen didn't answer, and continued to walk out, only to see several guards blocking the door, and his four confidants had already been controlled.
Yun Wuzhen turned around suddenly and looked at Yun Wulan in disbelief: "Brother?"
"I'm sorry, I'm also doing this for your own good. This world will belong to me sooner or later. You are my only biological brother, and I don't want you to become my enemy." Yun Wulan said, "I made a deal with Yu Fangqing, and she opened
The terms of the offer are very generous, and you also promise that I won’t treat you harshly. You will stay there for a while, and when I’m done here, I will take you back.”
Yun Wuzhen was completely desperate, his elder brother actually used him to make a deal.
In the final analysis, he was still too naive. He had been deceived once before, but he still came to him eagerly. He always felt that his elder brother could not hurt him no matter what. But the other party had already sold him as a bargaining chip.
Hang Shiqi and Ao Wu knew that Yun Wuzhen's accident happened two months later.
The Cocoon Rat did not continue the attack as An Qing expected, but the matter of finding a stronghold was completely at a loss. In the past two months, several tribes have carefully inspected their respective territories, making sure that no place was missed.
But I couldn't find the location of the stronghold.
Miao Sheng even wrote to Ao Wu many times asking if the intelligence was wrong. Why do you think it is safest for Cocoon Rat to set up its base in Dongye?
Several tribes gathered together and sent a few more elites to sneak into Yunhu territory to search for clues, but they found nothing. Instead, they brought a special message from Yunlan City: "Yun Wuzhen was given to Evernight Island by Yun Wulan
The owner of the island, Yu Fangqing, is fine."
This news came out in an extremely tortuous way. The strength of Yuntian Pavilion run by Yun Wuzhen in Dongye has been completely suppressed by Yun Wulan, and it is difficult to protect itself. Other forces close to him have also become key targets of surveillance, and Dongye has blocked all entrances and exits.
At the border crossing, Yun Wulan was secretly sent out by cargo ship at night.
Yun Wulan gave several Yunhu who opposed him to Cocoon Rat to make resurrection materials. As a result, although most people in the Yunhu tribe did not agree with it, they did not dare to openly resist Yun Wulan, and even pretended to obey.
But in their hearts, they still hope that someone can put an end to Yun Wulan's behavior of going crazy and dragging the entire Yunhu clan into trouble. Yun Wuzhen has the blood of the royal family, is kind and upright, and is close to the wolf king of the North. Obviously, he is
The best candidate in their eyes.
Therefore, as soon as Yun Wuzhen entered the royal city, these people's spies followed him quietly, but found that Yun Wuzhen did not appear again after entering. Someone found out that there was a cargo ship leaving the city that night, bribed the crew on it, and learned that it was indeed
A man was secretly transported onto the ship, and the ship's destination was the Island that never sleeps.
The rest of the information is easy to deduce. The key is that after knowing it, they found that they had no way to go to Evernight Island to save people, and secondly, they had no way to spread the news, so they had to send the news to Yuntian who could do nothing.
Please give me some peace of mind.
Shopkeeper Xin of Yuntian Pavilion was the same one from Wanze City. He thought he had accepted a good job, but not long after he arrived, the young prince fell out with King Yunhu, and they were also put under house arrest.
He got up. He stayed in the pavilion doing nothing every day. Even when he was buying food, cooking and pouring swill, he was monitored by the Yun Wulan sect.
I finally got some news and spent a lot of effort to send it in. When I saw it, my dear, it turned out that the young prince had been sold to Yu Fangqing by Yun Wulan as a prostitute.
The shopkeeper was so anxious that he thought hard about how to get the news out. Finally, two months later, a passing Frostwolf spy contacted him. He was so excited that he almost cried while hugging the spy who was pretending to be a farmer buying vegetables.
Hang Shiqi and Ao Wu were also dumbfounded after hearing the news.
Hang Shiqi: "I told this guy to be brave. I also asked him why he hasn't heard from him for two months. It turned out that he was sent to the island. Should we go and rescue him?"
"Rescue is necessary, but the question is how to save?" Ao Wu said: "The mermaid tribe is a natural overlord of the ocean. On the sea, even if I fight them, I have no chance of winning. In addition, there is still a month until the next batch of Cocoon Orcs.
If we don't have enough time, even if we want to go, we may not be able to make it in time. The next batch of Cocoon Orcs will never be as easy to deal with as this batch. Not only will there be elites from various races in it, but there will also be people killed by the opponent in the last siege.
Those frost wolves. More importantly, we must maintain minimal casualties in the battle, after all, we don’t know when the stronghold will be found.”
"Yes, it takes a month to go to Evernight Island one way, and the day lilies will be cold by the time we get back." Hang Shiqi rubbed his hair, suddenly remembered something, and raised his head: "Zong Yao! His boat is fast.
, we can reach the island in twenty days. In this case, how about we split up and you stay here to prepare for the war in a month. I will go to Zong Yao to save Yun Wuzhen. Tell him that as long as he saves Yun Wuzhen
After I'm rescued, he can touch Yun Wuzhen's tail as he pleases from now on, and he will definitely agree!"
"Are you going by yourself?" Ao Wu frowned slightly.
Hang Shiqi's heart thumped, and he explained in a low voice: "I'm not running around this time, I think I can help. You have also seen Zong Yao's boat. It's so fast. Besides, although the mermaid
Our clan is the overlord of the sea, but the armored bear’s boat has never been defeated in the river. We go secretly and save secretly, trying not to conflict with each other. If we can’t defeat me, we will run away. We will never be reluctant to fight..."
"I just want to say, pay attention to safety." Ao Wu looked at his nervous look and shook his head helplessly: "I know you will protect yourself very well, for yourself and for me, right?"
"Yeah!" Hang Shiqi nodded vigorously.
Ao Wu put his hand on his shoulder: "Then I'll leave it to you this time, Seventeen."
Hang Qiyi was excited, stood on tiptoes, leaned towards Ao Wu and said to his lips: "Wait for my good news!":,,,
