Chapter 917 The Tianwu River in the Tianwu Realm
Except for a few guys who ran to the gate of Shicheng in panic and were killed directly, the soldiers who rushed in did not go on a killing spree.
Di Jiu, Cao Xi and all the captured people were all driven to a huge square. Di Jiu discovered that the victors did not occupy key passes and key places immediately, but instead surrounded them as prisoners. Di Jiu felt that the prisoners were their most precious possessions.
But at this moment, Di Jiu didn't care at all. He was even a little happy, because his consciousness had already felt the language rules here. To him, as long as the rules of language are touched, language is the same everywhere. If he hadn't been unable to use his divine thoughts and divine energy in this place, he would have been able to sense the language rules as soon as he landed in this place, and it wouldn't have taken him so long at all.
Those tall defeated soldiers were also driven into the prisoner circle where Di Jiu was.
A fat man wearing a armor made of unknown materials strode to the top of the square. His eyes swept over the many people with satisfaction. To him, these were all his. spoils of war.
"You are very lucky, because my Big Wing tribe never kills prisoners." The fat guy scanned it once and then said with satisfaction.
Di Jiu could feel that many people around him were relieved. It seemed that besides the Dayi tribe, there were other tribes that liked to kill prisoners.
After the fat guy said something, he changed the topic, "However, our Dayi tribe does not take in waste. From the beginning of our Dayi tribe, you will build the Tianwu River. Those who contribute the most can join our Dayi tribe. Tribe, become a member of my Big Wing Tribe..."
Following the fat guy's talk about rewards for building the Tianwu River, Di Jiu didn't care at all. But he also got some basic things. At least he knew that there was a Tianwu River in this place, which every tribe seemed to be building. At the same time, Di Jiu also knew that the war between the tribes here seemed to be to capture the population and then build the Tianwu River.
What he doesn't understand is that since everyone wants to build the Tianwu River, then just build it together. Why go to war?
The Dayi tribe did things very neatly. Almost immediately after the fat guy finished speaking, he drove all the prisoners out of Stone City.
No one complained along the way, everyone was very cautious. Di Jiu soon figured out why these prisoners were so cautious. As long as they followed the rules, there would be no problem. Anyone who dares to deviate from the prescribed route will be shot immediately.
"Di Jiu, I think this seems to be a very ancient planet. At least one thing I'm sure of is that this planet is not in the Five Elements Universe. What's strange is that these people defeated each other, but abandoned each other's territory and wanted to destroy us. What does it mean to take all the prisoners away?" Cao Xi, who was walking beside Di Jiu, whispered.
Di Jiu said with certainty, "Of course it's not the Five Elements Universe. I haven't figured out what this place is yet. These people took us away because they needed us to build the Tianwu River. By the way, who was the fat man who spoke before? A leader of the Dayi Tribe..."
"Tianwu River..." Cao Xi murmured to himself, repeating these three words several times, and suddenly looked at Di Jiu, his eyes became much brighter.
Di Jiu looked at Cao Xi and said, "Cao Xi, what do you mean by looking at me like this?"
Cao Xi called Di Jiu by his first name, and Di Jiu was naturally not polite.
Cao Xi's voice even trembled a little, "Di Jiu, if this place is really where I guess, maybe you can really fight against Du Bu..."
Di Jiuyi frowned, wondering if this place was what Cao Xi had guessed, and whether it had anything to do with him dealing with Du?
Then Di Jiu thought about Dubu, and his mood became bad again. Du Bubu was so powerful that there was nothing he could do no matter how hard he tried. I really don’t know how Du Mo plotted against him back then. Du Mo was also a genius.
"Di Jiu, others don't know Du Bu's shortcomings, but I know..."
Before Cao Xi could finish his sentence, with a "Buzz!" sound, a whip fell from the air and hit Cao Xi directly between the eyebrows.
Di Jiu was shocked. He was sure that Cao Xi was at least the Holy Body. Even if the Holy Body's physical body was completely lost, this whip would not do anything to Cao Xi.
Before the whip could fall on Cao Xi's head, Di Jiu rushed over and blocked Cao Xi. At the same time, as his thoughts moved, the physical strength of his back weakened rapidly.
Snapped! Flesh and blood flew everywhere, this whip almost broke Di Jiu's back, and the bones on his back were clearly visible.
"Eh..." The whip did not hit Cao Xi. Instead, it only knocked out Di Jiu's bones. He let out a cry of surprise and subconsciously looked at the whip in his hand.
Di Jiu said loudly, "We will work hard to build the Tianwu River and wish the Dayi tribe a long life."
Some prisoners around who didn't know what was going on quickly followed Di Jiu and shouted loudly, "We will work hard to build the Tianwu River and wish the Dayi tribe long life."
Several higher-ranking soldiers heard the noise and came over to check on the situation. The soldier temporarily forgot about the trouble of continuing to look for Di Jiu.
Seeing the soldier leaving, Cao Xi looked at Di Jiu apologetically, and then she thought that Di Jiu could not only understand what was said here, but also speak it.
In her heart, she was very grateful to Di Jiu. If Di Jiu hadn't come out to help her block it, she might have exposed her physical strength. At that time, she and Di Jiu would definitely not be able to stay as captives safely like this.
…
A group of prisoners walked for a day and a night without eating or drinking before arriving at a gathering place.
Di Jiu and Cao Xi didn't care. The rest of them were exhausted. Fortunately, they had arrived at their destination.
The food provided by the Dayi tribe was a large bowl of dark paste per person. Di Jiu didn't know what kind of paste it was, but he knew that it was definitely not delicious. Others were excited to pick up the big black bowls, and everyone ate happily.
Di Jiu and Cao Xi distributed the food to the people around them, and they immediately gained the favor of the people around them.
If there were not soldiers guarding the area, the first thing Di Jiu would have asked was Cao Xi. Why did he say he might be able to fight against Du now? The second thing to ask is where is this place? What is Tianwu River and why should we build Tianwu River?
Perhaps the Tianwu River was to be built the next day. That night, all the prisoners were driven into a large basin. As long as they are driven into this basin and guard the exit of the basin, it can be guaranteed that no one can escape from here.
Di Jiu breathed a sigh of relief. As long as there were no soldiers guarding the basin, he could ask for everything he wanted. At the same time, Di Jiu could also imagine that although the Dayi tribe did not kill their group of prisoners, in the end, few of their group of prisoners would survive.
A group of people crowded into this basin at night, just drank a bowl of black paste, and then went to build Tianwu River the next day. It was strange that they could live long.
After all the prisoners entered the basin and the guarding soldiers left, Di Jiu specifically found an old man whom he had blackmailed before and asked, "Senior, may I ask, where is this place? Where was the Wu River that day?"
The old man looked at Di Jiu in surprise, and after a while he said, "This is naturally the place of the Dayi tribe, but how come you don't know about the Tianwu River?"
Di Jiu quickly lowered his voice, "My friends and I escaped from a distant place. There is no Tianwu River there..."
The old man frowned and said after a while, "This is impossible. In the Tianwu world, there are Tianwu rivers everywhere. How can there be no Tianwu river?"
Di Jiu finally figured out that this place was the Heavenly Witch Realm, but he didn't understand the Tianwu River even more. There was a river in the entire realm. What kind of river was it?
