Finally, after bypassing the terrible abyss, the group came to a cave entrance.
This cave entrance is slightly different from other places. The first difference is that this cave entrance is sealed with rocks. At the same time, a human badge was faintly engraved on the rock. Du Wei recognized it was the badge of the Thornflower family, the badge of the Thornflower family of Aragon, just by looking at it.
This badge Du Wei has only seen in some documents, because in the current Roland Empire, although the flag of the empire is also a thorn flower, it is very different from the badge on this iron gate. Because of the replacement of the royal family line of the empire, the royal badge has changed from the Aragonese family in the earliest period, to the Aragonese brothers family, and then to the Augustinian family. The badge has passed Changed and modified several times. On the badge of the Thorn Flower family in the earliest period, many imprints of the family line that later became the royal family have been added.
And with Du Wei's knowledge and talents, he could tell at a glance that the iron gate was the earliest and purest thorn flower badge of the Roland Empire belonging to the Aragon era.
The old magician opened the long box given to him by the patriarch of the dragon clan, and took out the "key" used to open this secret room.
To everyone's surprise, this so-called "key" turned out to be a truncated horn!
Reminiscent of the half-truncated horn on the head of the dragon patriarch. Du Wei immediately understood what was going on.
"Don't look at me like that, I didn't expect the key to be such a thing." The old magician touched his nose with one hand, held the so-called key with the other, and opened his mouth: "No wonder... No wonder..."
Two hundred years ago, the old magician came here to search for the legacy left by Aragorn, but he hadn't found the prophecy at that time, and the dragon patriarch who guarded here naturally refused to let him enter the secret room, and never handed over the key. For this reason, the two fought against each other, but the old magician was defeated and could only leave with regret.
"There are two conditions for the patriarch of the Dragon Clan to hand over the key. One is the contract with the Dragon Clan. I already had that thing when I came last time. Unfortunately, I don't meet the second condition, because I am not Allah. The missionary mentioned in the tribute prophecy." The old magician smiled. He handed the half dragon horn to Du Wei: "Take it, only you can enter this secret room, not us."
Du Wei took the half-truncated horn and walked to the cave door under the encouraging eyes of the old magician.
The badge of the thorn flower on the rock in front of it is the size of a washbasin, and Du Wei holds a half-truncated horn. After groping for a while, I don't know how to use this "key".
If it is a key, there must be at least one keyhole, right
Du Wei couldn't help complaining.
But on this rock, where is the keyhole
"How to use it?" Du Wei turned around and asked.
The old magician spread his hands and answered simply: "I don't know."
have no idea
Du Wei rolled his eyes.
"Yes, I don't know." The words of the old magician annoyed Du Wei: "You are the person in the prophecy. Only you can open this door. It is destined in the prophecy that you will be able to open it. As for how to open it, I believe it." There is always a way."
What kind of answer is this
Du Wei held back his anger and reached out to grope carefully on the rock. The rock that blocked the cave was irregular and pitted. It is very uneven, the only flat piece is the thorn flower emblem, which was also cut flat with a sword.
etc…
Du Wei stroked the thorn flower badge, and suddenly felt that there seemed to be a small raised rock in the center of the badge. He pressed it lightly, but found that the raised piece sank in immediately, revealing...
Two small holes!
two
Du Wei froze for a moment, but there was only one "key" in his hand.
Moreover, he gestured to the thickness of the dragon horn in his hand. It doesn't seem to fit in either, the size doesn't fit.
But Du Wei is not a person who sticks to a fixed mindset after all. He thought about it for a while, but he vaguely felt the position and distance of the two small holes on the badge, faintly like two eyes of a person...
Then, under the strange eyes of the people behind him, Du Wei leaned over his head, and then put his two eyes close to the two small holes on the badge...
Then, a miracle happened.
Two strong lights suddenly shot out from the two small holes on the badge, and those two beams of intense light pierced directly into Du Wei's eyes! Logically speaking, such a strong light piercing the eyes can temporarily blind a normal person!
But Du Wei didn't seem to feel anything. He only felt that his eyes received a strong light. Although the light was strong, it didn't seem to irritate the eyes at all. Instead, he felt very soft and comfortable. Then soon, it seemed that something ignited a certain power in Du Wei's body, and Du Wei felt that his eyes could penetrate directly into the rocky ground through these two small holes! Through it!
Then, through the two small holes, Du Wei seemed to see something
At such a moment, Du Wei seemed to feel that his eyes had seen... Illusion is an illusion...
In front of my eyes, figures flashed one by one, but all of them were women I had seen and known... the cute little stuttering little girl Wei Wei An, the violent ice and snow beauty Joanna, and the long-haired and barefoot Semel in a red robe. , Ruolin, the long-legged hot girl who claimed the first honorary knight by herself...
All the beauties flashed in front of my eyes... why are they all women
Just when Du Wei was in a strange state, it seemed that a subtle voice pierced into Du Wei's heart: Alas, the eye of charm... It turns out that Chris gave you this thing.
God has not waited for Du Wei to return home. He suddenly felt empty...
At this moment, the eyes of the people standing behind Du Wei widened (except Medusa, of course). Du Wei's body seemed to be like a mass of melting ice and snow, it just "melted" into the rock and disappeared soon!
Du Wei felt that he was in darkness, yes, complete darkness, without any light.
But it happens very strangely. Du Wei felt that he could clearly see everything around him!
This feeling is amazing, as if I have become a natural night vision eye! Du Wei didn't know how this happened, but he was sure that it probably had something to do with the strong light that shot into his eyes just now.
This is a very short and narrow passage, with a large rock behind it—but how did I get in through this rock? Du Wei himself was a little at a loss.
Ahead, there seemed to be a strange fog that blocked everything. Can't see anything.
keep going
Du Wei instinctively felt that the fog seemed to be very dangerous. This was a kind of instinctive alertness. Du Wei thought for a while, he took off his hat lightly, and then threw it into the fog …
Crack!
There was a small but clear sound. Just when Du Wei's eyelids were lowered, as soon as the thrown hat touched the area of the mist, countless shining sharp edges appeared in the air, cutting the poor hat into countless tiny pieces at once. !
Depend on! It's just a shredder!
Du Wei gasped.
what do I do? keep going
Du Wei didn't want to be cut into pieces by this fog!
At this moment, the voice from the bottom of my heart sounded again:
(do you have the key?)
key
Du Wei couldn't help but looked around, there was nothing but the dark mountain wall, he raised his breath and shouted: "Who! Who is talking to me?"
(do you have the key?)
Du Wei looked at the fog vigilantly: "The key? I have it!"
After speaking, he raised his hand and waved the half dragon horn.
Then there was no sound. Du Wei waited for a while. I didn't wait for any answer, and the strange voice didn't come again.
key
key…
Du Wei grumbled. Looking at the half of the dragon's horn in his hand, he gritted his teeth, and took a few steps forward tentatively...
When the toe of one foot touched the edge of the mist, Du Wei immediately felt a powerful force emerge from the mist! Immediately there was a snap, and the toe of his boot was cut off immediately! Fortunately, the boots were too big, and the toe was gone, revealing five bare toes. Du Wei quickly retracted his feet and cursed: "What the hell! I have a key! But what's the use of this key!"
This curse. Du Wei regretted it!
It was as if he had provoked some reaction from the mist, the mist that was originally condensed. Suddenly, it diffused towards Du Wei!
Du Wei yelled in horror, and he quickly stepped back, but how far can there be in this narrow passage? Soon he retreated to the edge of the rock behind him, and he couldn't take another step back!
Depend on! Is this Aragon's heritage, or some kind of murder trap!
Seeing that the fog had swept up, Du Wei let out a long sigh, made up his mind, and closed his eyes...
Fate!
I don't know how long it took. When Du Wei opened his eyes, he found that he hadn't been cut into pieces. There was a soft ray of light, which enveloped Du Wei inside, and the surrounding area was filled with mist, but it couldn't penetrate the ray of light emanating from the dragon's horn at all.
Relying on this ray of light to illuminate the way forward in the mist, Du Wei heaved a sigh of relief, and glanced at the dragon horn in his hand that looked like a torch. He settled down and continued to walk in...
After walking through the fog, Du Wei finally saw what this so-called "secret room" looked like.
It is not as magical as imagined, and there is no such treasure as the "King's Sword" stored in the imagination. This is a cold, boring, and even somewhat cold cave.
The only difference is that in this cave, there is a square and heavy sarcophagus... Well, at least from the shape of that thing, it looks like a coffin!
"You're here? It's much slower than I expected."
Just when Du Wei took a closer look at what else there was in this cave—it was really difficult for him, the cave was very small, even a little smaller than the bedroom at Du Wei's house, and it seemed that there was nothing to hide his treasures in. place of place. Barely, you can see the whole cave at a glance.
But this sudden voice startled Du Wei!
"Who is it?" Du Wei said in a deep voice, looking around: "Is it interesting to talk in the dark?"
"It's very interesting." The voice is a little weird, but most importantly, it seems to sound familiar: "Because the expression on your face is very exciting. Are you scared?"
Immediately, a shadow appeared on the wall of the cave, and then a figure came out from the mountain wall bit by bit.
"It's you?" Du Wei frowned. Looking at the guy in front of him in surprise, Du Wei said in a deep voice, "The patriarch of the Dragon Clan will break his promise? Aren't you Dragon Clan always proud?"
Walking out of the wall, it looked like the patriarch of the Dragon Clan with half of the horn missing on his head!
"Have I broken my oath?" The dragon patriarch came out with a sneer, and then sat casually on the sarcophagus in the middle of the cave. He waved: "Come here, to wait for today. I have been waiting for a long time!"
Du Wei carefully controlled his emotions, because he knew very well that he had absolutely no capital to provoke this powerful dragon patriarch—not even the old magician outside was a strong opponent. Du Wei felt that he was still a little bit against the other party Keep your head down and be a little respectful.
"Well... at least you should tell me why you are here." Du Wei's tone became much calmer.
The patriarch of the dragon clan raised his head, with a sly smile in his eyes: "I promise that guy from Aragorn, to help him keep some things. Wait for the person he said to come with a devil's breath. Other than that, no one is allowed to Open here to see what he left behind!"
"Yes, then why can you come in?" Du Wei sighed.
"Because, this is my place, and the whole mountain is my territory. Here, I can go to any place, including this secret room of course. And in the content of my agreement with him, it only said that unless he Except for the descendants of the earth, no one is allowed to open his things, including me. So over the years, although I have been extremely curious, I have not violated my oath to look through the things he left behind. But... "The patriarch of the Dragon Clan He grinned: "However, in our agreement, there is no prohibition when his descendants come to look at these things. I can't stay here and watch, right?"
Du Wei was startled. Then he smiled wryly: "You mean, you don't touch his things, but you can watch me open the things he left behind. So, strictly speaking, you didn't violate the oath?"
"Yes." The patriarch of the Dragon Clan replied very simply.
This guy is very talented to be a politician. Du Wei slandered inwardly.
But standing on someone else's plate, and the opponent is still the kind of strong man who can wipe himself into ashes with a wave of his hand, Du Wei didn't challenge the opponent's capital.
"Just watch it if you want." Du Wei curled his lips, anyway, in his heart, he knew the identity of this bullshit missionary. There is also some resistance.
"Are you really the descendant of Aragon?" The patriarch of the dragon clan looked at Du Wei with great interest: "You are very different from that guy outside."
"Who? That old magician? That old immortal?" Anyway, that guy wasn't around, so Du Wei didn't have to be so polite in his words. Tolerated all the way to anger. It was finally possible to speak out.
"Yes, he respects Aragorn as a god." The patriarch of the dragon clan smiled: "But you, it seems that you don't take everything that happened here in your heart."
"You're right." Du Wei nodded, and he didn't hide his inner thoughts: "Aragorn is great, that's his business, no matter how great he is, I wouldn't want to see him after a thousand years of his death." Suddenly, one day a certain guy came and said that he wanted me to give up my own life and risk being beheaded to inherit his legacy."
The patriarch of the dragon clan froze for a moment, then laughed loudly: "Well said! But I have to correct you: Aragorn is not a great guy, he is a despicable villain!"
Du Wei didn't say anything, although he was not willing to inherit Aragorn's will, but described Aragorn as a despicable person... Du Wei thought that this was probably the sour grapes mentality of the Dragon Clan patriarch's loss to Aragorn.
"You don't believe it?" The patriarch of the dragon clan showed a trace of anger, and then he sneered again and again: "Then, have you seen what I look like now? Don't you find it strange? Why does a patriarch of the dragon clan look like a human?"
"This... Didn't you become like this yourself?" Du Wei asked cautiously.
"Do you think this is very interesting?" The patriarch of the dragon clan said coldly: "You think I like to look like a human... Oh, I really like to do it occasionally, because then I can quietly travel into the human world. But no It means that I like to make my body into a tiny human being! I am a dragon! I am a dragon!"
The guy talked and talked. Suddenly he got angry, he stood up, and suddenly let out a low growl, which made Du Wei stand still: "I tell you, since that Aragorn, that despicable guy murdered me, in the past few years, I have been I can only maintain the current appearance!! I can no longer return to the dragon body! I can only become the current appearance!"
"..."
Du Wei was speechless. Then he thought for a while, and suddenly thought of something!
Could it be... The Fountain of Youth? A fountain of youth that would permanently freeze a person's form? !
Poor Gargamel drank from the Fountain of Youth after turning into a mouse, so he could only be a mouse forever.
And this patriarch of the Dragon Clan, could it be...
After all, Du Wei knew that Aragon had found the Fountain of Youth!
"Back then, when that despicable guy came here. I was still a dragon! He couldn't defeat me at all! Back then he came here alone, saying he wanted to challenge me! He started to lie to me just to challenge me, to prove that he It is the status of the strongest person in the mainland! I accept it! We have fought fiercely for three days and three nights, hmph, what is the strongest person under the starry sky! Gong. He couldn’t defeat me either! For three days and three nights, we were tied. Then, this guy played tricks on me!”
Hearing the angry roar of the dragon patriarch, Du Wei couldn't help sighing: "Then what? He tricked you into drinking a spring water while you transformed into a human?"
"That guy, he couldn't beat me, so he used words to offend me, saying that I, as a dragon, have the talents bestowed on us by God. Originally, the body of the dragon is much stronger than that of a human. So even if we have a tie, it is actually the same. Because I took a lot of advantage... so I became angry and turned into a human to fight him!"
"What's the result?" Du Wei asked in a pitiful tone.
As a result, there is no need to ask, just look at the face of the patriarch of the Dragon Clan, and he naturally lost.
"I turned into a human body to fight him, and I really lost." The patriarch of the dragon clan gritted his teeth: "However, he tricked me into drinking that spring water! In this way, I can no longer recover into a dragon body! As a result I can no longer compete with his power! He threatened me that if I don't agree to his request, he will kill all the dragons! He is indeed very powerful. And I can't compete with him after I become a human. There is no opponent who can compete with him! As a result, I can only be forced for the sake of my people, and I signed the damn contract with him!! If I didn’t drink the spring water, how could the proud Dragon Clan Tolerate being used by humans for thousands of years! Guard this damned secret room for him!" The patriarch of the dragon clan said angrily, and looked at his ferocious expression, as if he was about to swallow Du Wei at any time: "Also, knowing that he is a believer of the devil, We Dragon Clan are loyal to the gods, how can we help him do these things! He weakened my strength with tricks, and then threatened me with force, and forced me to agree to his contract! This despicable guy!"
There is such a thing
Although Du Wei didn't want to believe it, the reality was right in front of him!
Moreover, looking at the evil spirit on the face of the patriarch of the Dragon Clan, Du Wei suddenly thought of a terrible possibility!
really…
"And now, thank you for coming, this matter can finally be understood." The patriarch of the Dragon Clan stared at Du Wei carefully, with an undisguised cruel smile on his face: "I signed that contract, and I promised Help him keep his things until one day, qualified people come to take them away...but... "
The patriarch of the dragon clan squeezed his fingers lightly, and said with a smile: "But, as long as you open the thing here, my contract will be completed! Aragorn has nothing to restrain me anymore! I will kill you! Kill me!" Kill you and your companions! All the guys outside the door now! And... this is not a violation of the contract!"
Seeing the smirk of the dragon patriarch, Du Wei realized that he had encountered a big problem!
He smiled with difficulty, thinking about countermeasures quickly in his mind, and said with a wry smile: "So, you have to watch me open the things here, and then you can kill me? And my companion outside ?”
"Yes." The patriarch of the Dragon Clan nodded. He was definitely not joking: "It is not stated in the contract that I cannot kill you after the matter is completed! Aragorn lied to me once, and now is the time to pay him back!"
"..."
Du Wei suddenly felt that he was wronged!
He even wanted to curse "Damn Aragorn" with the patriarch of the Dragon Clan!
Back then, you offended these proud guys in order to coerce the Dragon Clan into signing a contract! Now that you are dead, people want to vent their anger on me
Aragorn, oh Aragorn, you are going to kill Lao Tzu!
"Come on, poor kid." The patriarch of the dragon clan sneered cruelly: "Open these things quickly, I'm getting impatient. Hehe..."
As he spoke, he lightly raised a finger, and the tip of that finger was emitting a bit of cold air, which gently condensed into a sharp ice edge, and the sharp edge flashed with cold light.
Du Wei can be sure that if this ice skate is cut on his body, it must be very painful...
The patriarch of the dragon clan was already standing beside Du Wei. He looked at Du Wei as if he was looking at a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, and pointed to the sarcophagus next to him: "Quick, do it."
Du Wei was confused and desperately thinking about countermeasures, but in this respect, facing such a guy whose strength is almost close to that of Aragon, what else can he think of
In the murderous eyes of the patriarch of the dragon clan, Du Wei even wanted to regret in his heart, regretting why he ran to this ghost's place, regretting why he met this hapless old magician, that old immortal! Regretting why I blackmailed Weiwei'an in the first place! I regret that I stayed in the castle and why I went to the south!
If I didn't take people south to play, I wouldn't have met Wei Wei'an! If you don't meet Wei Wei'an, you won't meet Joanna! You wouldn't have escaped all the way to Alcatraz without meeting the two of them! After that, the old magician will not come to ask for things for his disciples! I won't find my devil horns either! You won't kidnap yourself and come to the frozen forest...
In the end, I won't face the butcher knife of a powerful dragon patriarch with my poor third-level magic power in this poor little secret room!
But regret it now, is it too late
His hands are already on the lid of the sarcophagus, as long as he pushes hard, it should be able to open. But Du Wei was struggling in his heart, and the classic question like Hamlet echoed in Du Wei's heart: To open, or not to open... This is a question.
In addition, there is a very serious request, which is to His Majesty Aragorn.
If there is a chance to face Aragorn, Du Wei really wants to ask him seriously: Fuck your mother, can you
