Chapter 56 Tribute

In the evening, the sun sets. Langya Mountain in the western suburbs of the imperial capital.

Since the last time the fire in the center of the earth erupted, all the waterfalls and fountains and strange trees on Langya Mountain were burned and charred, and all the remaining were the bare and strange rocks all over the mountain, which were extremely ugly and dazzling. The residents of Langya Town originally lived by the beautiful scenery of Langya Mountain. Now that the beautiful scenery has been destroyed, no tourists come to search for the secrets, they have no basis for their survival. In addition, the eruption of the volcano is too scary, and no one knows whether the fire in the center of the earth will spray again next time, so the residents of the town moved away. In a short time, the once lively Langya Mountain became a barren mountain with a radius of ten miles, and even a rat was rarely seen.

Although Langya Mountain was destroyed and there was no one in Langya Town, Langya Town was located at the western gate of the imperial capital. The only official road passed through here. The mountain was destroyed and the official road was still there.

Song Li lay lazily on the roof of a wine shop, bathing in the afterglow of the sunset, and put a jar beside him, and occasionally took a sip. It was so comfortable. Although the wine shop was empty, the big kids actually dug out a few jars of aged wine from the cellar, which made everyone enjoy it.

"Boss, they are here!" Song Ligang took a sip of wine, and Pang Da warned him from the roof of the front.

Song Li sat up, raised the thousand-mile mirror and looked west. He saw a group of people and horses with bright armor and sharp edges in the sun. He was walking along the official road towards Langya Town. Looking at their location, it was about five miles away from Langya Town, and it was at most half an hour. The Nebula Continent has twenty-four hours a day, half an hour, and it is not long.

"The goal will enter Langya Town in half an hour. Everyone will take their place and prepare for construction!" Song Li waved his hand and told the brothers below to prepare. He found a hidden place to lurk in a hidden place. He put a circle of black ropes on his hand, and didn't know what it was for.

More than a month has passed since the rebellion of Huang Shoufu. During this period, Prince Zhong and his team were very low-key. The government and the country were peaceful and peaceful, and the tense atmosphere of the two factions in the past almost no longer exists. Song Li knew that this peaceful state was just the tranquility before the storm. After this attack, Prince Zhong was definitely not afraid. His purpose of deliberately showing weakness was just brewing a more violent outbreak. The problems that Song Li could see were naturally understood by Lord Saint Emperor, Shoufu Wen and others, and everyone was tacitly informed. On the surface, there was harmony, secretly winning over the party members, expanding their power, and preparing for the next confrontation.

After Song Xinghai took over the three special service departments, he carried out drastic reforms. Of course, many of the suggestions were given to him by Song Li. After all, Song Li experienced an era of consulting explosion, so there was still a lot of goods in his stomach. He brought some advanced management experiences he knew in his previous life, and then slightly modified them according to the national conditions of the Holy Lion Empire and told his father that he could refresh his father and applaud him every time. Then, he implemented these management measures in the three special service departments, and the effect was naturally excellent.

Even the Holy Emperor did not expect that Song Xinghai, who had never assumed such an important responsibility, could manage the three special service departments in an orderly manner. He was united with a rope, and his morale and cohesion were unprecedentedly strong. Of course, before this, he must have been cleaned up by personnel. After all, Prince Kang had been immersed in the three special service departments for many years, and during this period, he installed many confidants. Song Xinghai took a lot of effort to identify these people and then sweep them out. The supplementary personnel were all drawn from the Golden Feather Knight. These people were all confidants of the Holy Emperor, and there was no problem with loyalty.

Under the instruction of the Holy Emperor, the three special service departments have drawn a large part of their troops to supervise important officials of the Prince Zhong. It has to be said that the three special service departments are really a full-time secret service agency and their intelligence acquisition capabilities are unparalleled. During this period, a lot of information useful to His Majesty the Holy Emperor was obtained, including the news that the tribute gift sent by King Angzang of the Western Regions will arrive in the imperial capital in the past few days.

Because Song Li's performance was excellent, Song Xinghai no longer regarded him as an ordinary child. He would share and communicate with him any important information. The information about King Ang Zang's recent arrival of the tribute gift was Song Xinghai told Song Li.

The reason why Song Li appeared in Langya Town was because of this group of tribute gifts.

If this batch of tribute gifts were sent directly to the palace, Song Li would not have a good idea. After all, their family belonged to the Holy Emperor's lineage and was not very kind to rob his boss's things. However, the tribute gifts from Ang Zang Kingdom have always been sent to Prince Zhong's mansion and then transferred from Prince Zhong to the Holy Emperor. Song Li didn't know how this habit was developed, but this was a very fucking thing. Since it was a tribute gift, it was offered to the court. What kind of virtue is Prince Zhong? Why would he collect tribute gifts from vassal states on his behalf? He is not a saint emperor, how could he represent the court?

According to my father, the relationship between the Angzang Kingdom and the Holy Lion Empire is relatively subtle. They were willing to give the tribute to Prince Zhong, and the Holy Emperor would not object too much. Otherwise, it would not be a good move to the point of war. In the face of the overall situation, the Holy Emperor endured this and did not take it too seriously in this matter. So it became a routine over time.

Since the tribute gift was first sent to Prince Zhong’s mansion, there was no need for Song Li to be polite to him.

From the Thousand Mile Mile Mile Mile, Song Li could see that there were five big cars in the middle of the escort tribute gifts. Each big car had a deep mark. It can be judged that there must be many precious items on the car. Although Song Li also liked these things very much, the reason why he was thinking about these tribute gifts was mainly aimed at the "Snow Mountain Black Mud Stem" for a century.

According to my father, there is a rare treasure in King Ang Zang’s tribute this time: the black mud stem of the snow mountain.

The Angzang Daxue Mountain is the highest altitude peak on the Nebula continent. The top of the snow mountain peaks is rich in black mud, and the surface of the black mud is covered with snow all year round. In the black mud on the top of the snow mountain peaks, there is a long medicinal material that looks very similar to the rhizomes of plants and is snow-white all over. The scientific name is "Snow Mountain Black Mud Stem". The snow mountain Black Mud Stem is actually not a stem, but a root. It has its own stem, which can penetrate the accumulated snow and bloom and scatter leaves in the air. The longer the year the black mud stem, the thicker the roots, and the better the medicinal effect. A hundred-year-old portion of the snow mountain Black Mud Stem is simply hard to come by.

The black mud stems of the snow mountain are not stained, and are as white as jade. They bloom and scatter in the extreme cold. They are definitely a treasure between heaven and earth. The century-old snow mountain black mud stems can be used as medicinal materials for alchemy, and refining a variety of elixirs. If the snow mountain black mud stems are added to the foundation building pill, the chance of building a foundation can be increased by 30%! This is the biggest reason that attracts Song Li.

Over the past month, under Yun Lin's careful guidance, Song Li has been progressing step by step. Now he can refine lower-grade elixirs at the earth level. His understanding of pharmacological medicinal materials and the changes in medicinal properties after drug combination is no longer the same as Wu Xia Among. Yun Lin already feels that Song Li is like a sponge absorbing water, absorbing the knowledge and nutrients from her every day. Even though this daughter of the Holy Elixir Master's family has a lot of knowledge and is almost empty! Her son learned too quickly, so fast that Yun Lin often feels frightened! She has grown up so old that she has never heard of any alchemist with such a monster talent. She cannot predict what level her son will grow to in the future!

Yun Lin's fear is human instinctive fear of unknown things. At least in her eyes, her son is an "unknown thing".

Since breaking through to the second level of Qi Induction Stage, Song Li's cultivation speed has become faster. The key problem is that after the Emperor Fire Seed grows and grows stronger after swallowing the original fire, its appetite has also become larger. Pills of the level of the Three-Transformation Yuan Dan can no longer be activated.

Without the help of the energy released by the Emperor Fire Seed, Song Li's cultivation progress was much slower. The improvement of the Qi-induced state is ten times more difficult than the Body Refining stage, and the energy required for each level is also extremely large, so Song Li urgently needs the help of the Emperor Fire Seed.

If you want to activate the Emperor Fire Seed, the best way is of course to let it devour the Original Fire Seed. However, the Original Fire Seed is too rare. A person may not be able to find a gray hair when he finds his hair when he is young. The most common way is to refine higher-level pills to act as fuel to activate the Emperor Fire Seed.

Song Li estimated that he would soon have the ability to refine middle-grade earth-level elixirs. Before that, he had to collect all the genius treasures for refining elixirs. The century-old snow mountain black mud stems were naturally the big fat meat delivered to his door.

According to the information from Maoyansi, after King Ang Zang escorted the tribute gifts, he handed over the tribute gifts to the guard sent by King Jing. In other words, the team escorted the tribute gifts are now under King Jing. Song Li saw clearly in the Qianli Miles. There were about 300 guards, and he and the brothers of the Justice Alliance had only more than 30 people. The strength and weakness of the two sides were very different, and they were unable to compete, so they could only be defeated by wisdom.

Through the Thousand Mile Mile Mile, Song Li focused his eyes on the face of the general with a black armor and a black horse. Based on Song Li's understanding of military uniforms, this general should be a commander of the thousand men, and he should be the leader of the guards.

The captain of thousands of men looked cold and looked around with vigilant eyes. It was not far from the imperial capital, but he was not careless and still maintained a high degree of vigilance. It seems that this person should not be simple if King Jing can hand over such an important task to him.

From Song Li's perspective, it can be seen that the cultivation level of this thousand-man commander is also in the early stage of the second level of Qi-induced development. In the army, this is already one of the few masters. If you fight head-on, Song Li is not sure of winning. Everyone has the same level, and the other party is from a corps and has a rich experience in fighting life and death. Without the help of the Emperor Fire Seed, Song Li has almost no advantage.
