The Elder Scrolls: Celestial Dynasty
Chapter 27
A few days later, in the primeval mountains of Shennongjia in the hinterland of the Celestial Empire, three dusty people were walking through it.
The old man who walked in front of him in high spirits pointed at the snow-covered mountains and said with great interest: "This is Shennongjia, magnificent, do you know? According to legend, this is the place where the Shennong clan lived in ancient times..."
Along the way up the mountain, the bags of the three people were stacked on his back.
One is a dying old man, the other is a delicate girl, and he... happens to be in the prime of life, what can he do, sometimes not only the old man doubts, but even he himself doubts whether he is a baron or not, even if he is, it should be the most bitter, tired and aggrieved baron in the world.
He looked up, Leia, the dead girl, had been running around the old man since she took over a bag of gold coins
from Hu Jin, and it seemed that only the old man was looking at it, money, what a good thing! The old man Hu Jin didn't think so much, he was like discovering a new continent, and he excitedly shouted at Long Yun: " That, you also said that you are not a dragonborn, your words and deeds have betrayed you, this knowledge is what I saw in ancient books, few people in this world can know, come... Tell me, what else do you know?"
Long Yun glanced at him and pouted and said: "I know more, the Yanhuang War, the Yan Bo stealing the fire, Nuwa mending the sky, the flood is monstrous... And so on and so forth.
As soon as he said this, the old man's face changed again, and his dim eyes were almost about to glow, and he turned around and trotted to Long Yun's side and said: "Oh my God, you actually know all this, in vain I have been rummaging through ancient books for so many years, exhausting my mental strength, but you may be mistaken, it should be Prometheus who stole the fire..."
Long Yun finally threw the old man a disdainful look at the old man very relieved: "Prometheus? Listening to the name, you also know that this is not a person of our nation, could it be that you have always thought that it was a foreigner who stole the fire and benefited us?"
The old man smiled awkwardly: "Of course not, maybe it was a mistake in the ancient book, you know, after all, it is very old, and there are some defects in the ancient book, haha... Why don't we rest and have a good chat first?"
Long Yun looked at the front impatiently: "How far is the wall that records Ao Guang's death as you said?"
"It's not far, it's not far, it's just at the top of Shennong in front." The
old man said and took out a map from his arms and looked at it: "This is the predecessor of our blade warriors, in order to commemorate the killing of the dragon king Ao Guang and specially built, although no one knows where it is for a long time, but fortunately, I checked the map, there will be no mistake!"
On the top of Shennong, the three people looked at each other facing the ruins and broken walls in front of them, the withered yellow weeds around them swayed with the strong wind, and the dilapidated scene in front of them made people completely unimaginable, there was once a majestic temple of Tianyou here!
Old man Hu seemed to have been stripped of a tendon, and like a deflated ball, he sat on the broken stone and muttered: "This is the joy of the blade warriors after defeating the enemy, how brilliant it was, only a few hundred years have passed, and it has been forgotten in time..."
Yes, in the long river of history, everything we human beings have experienced is only as insignificant as dust, and no matter how profound the memory is, it is not enough to set off even a wave. The
old man raised his head, looked at him with confused eyes, and said, "What you said is quite reasonable, is this a legendary philosophy?"
Long Yun was speechless.
Leia couldn't bear to look at the old man's disappointment, and comforted: "Otherwise, I'll look around, it is said that ancient buildings will leave back doors or secret passages in hidden places, you wait..."
Long Yun and the old man watched her bend down and search all the way away, and shook their heads relative to each other, they all collapsed like this, and they could still find the secret passage, the little girl was really stupid and naïve!
Standing at the entrance of the secret passage that was cleaned up by Leia, Long Yun and Old Man Hu rubbed their eyes vigorously and bit their tongues vigorously, this is really unbelievable, unexpectedly, there is really a secret passage!
Long Yun lit a torch to open the way in front, and the three of them rushed in.
The dark passage is narrow, extending downward and zigzag, but fortunately it was not affected by the collapse of the outer hall, and the road was unimpeded.
After walking for a short time, the front suddenly opened up, and the three of them walked out of the dark passage, and when they looked up, a majestic underground temple appeared in front of them.
The temple was tall and spacious, with a few tables and stools lying crookedly, and an altar standing alone in the center of the temple, the walls around it covered with dust, but it didn't look like there were any traces of writing or burning.
Hu Jin took out a book and opened it to look around, carefully observed, and finally walked to the altar and nodded with great certainty: "This is it."
Then he turned around and beckoned Long Yun to walk to the altar, and said seriously: "This is the place where you can verify whether you are a dragonborn." As he spoke
, he took out a dagger from his waist, swiped it lightly in the palm of his hand, clenched it into a fist, and the blood from the wound dripped down towards a container carved with a dark groove at the altar, and then gathered along the dark groove to the center, and in a short time, it all seeped into a drop.
Long Yun and Leia watched all this with wide eyes, and waited for a long time, but there was nothing abnormal around them.
The old man looked at Long Yun and said solemnly: "Only the blood of the dragonborn can open the dragon wall!" Long Yun
took the dagger in disbelief and concocted it in the same way, and the magic really appeared, when all the blood seeped in, there was a sudden creaking sound of the mechanism turning under his feet, and a large crack opened in the open space in front of the altar, and soon a stone wall with carved patterns slowly rose from the crack in the ground, and finally all exposed the ground and stood there.
The three of them surrounded him with torches, and saw some pictures and illegible words carved on the wall, Hu Jin looked at it, and from time to time lowered his head to compare it with the ancient book in his hand, and finally he pointed to the first picture and said, "Look, the dragon rules the world."
Long Yun and Leia followed his fingers, and saw that at the top of the picture, a giant dragon was standing upright, and below it there were more than a dozen small dragons scattered, and at the bottom of the pattern, a group of small people were farming, hunting, or dancing, and the whole picture presented a peaceful and orderly appearance.
In the second drawing, the dragon was still on top, but flames erupted from its mouth, and the dragons spread their wings and flew above the crowd, their claws aimed straight at the crowd, and the crowd panicked and fled.
Hu Jin saw the third picture, pointed to a man in the painting, and said, "This should be the Dragonborn, he is leading the people against the Dragons." Sure
enough, the man was portrayed much taller than the others, and he was raising his sword and slashing at the dragon's side, and below him, the little dragon was surrounded by a crowd of weapons of all kinds, and the sky was filled with flames and lightning, and there were red rivers on the ground, which seemed to be made of blood.
In the final painting, the dragon falls to the bottom, and the corpses of the little dragon are scattered around it, and the dragonborn stands on top of the dragon, raising his sword aloft in his hand, surrounded by a cheering crowd.
After reading it, Long Yun shook his head and said, "There is no indication on it how to defeat the dragon.
"No, look here.
Hu Jin pointed to the dragonborn in the third picture and said, "Look at his mouth, his mouth is wide open, is there a few wisps of qi flying towards the dragon in his mouth?"
Long Yun looked at it carefully: "It seems to be, but can you be sure that these are not the lines of the stone wall itself?"
"Of course not!"
Hu Jin said proudly, "Because I recognize that there are two words engraved next to this picture, Dragon Roar!".
Long Yun couldn't help but shake his head, and he denied, "Master Graybeard taught me the dragon roar, but I don't believe that there will be such power that I can defeat the dragon king.
Hu Jin smiled slightly, pointed to the ancient book in his hand and said: "Dragon roar refers to the unified name of using the power of dragons, some dragons will spray flames, some will spit out frost, and some will use their claws to swing thunderbolts..."
Or, you should go and talk to Graybeard again, he should know what kind of power is the dragon roar that can kill Ao Guang
?" "What about you, won't you go with us
?" "I?"
Hu Jin smiled bitterly: " The more than 7,000 steps of Kunlun Snow Mountain are simply a life-threatening ladder for me, I will stay here, hoping to study more secrets to defeat Ao Guang, don't worry, I will go to Jing Ke when I am done, I hope to enjoy a worry-free time with her!".
The old man who walked in front of him in high spirits pointed at the snow-covered mountains and said with great interest: "This is Shennongjia, magnificent, do you know? According to legend, this is the place where the Shennong clan lived in ancient times..."
