"This is the foolishness of the stonemasons. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

With his two hands, Kritik straddled his warrior stick and held it behind his neck, and at the ends of the ornate warrior stick were several jars of antique spirits, a gift he wanted to give to his good friend, a good friend he hadn't seen in 10,000 years.

Probably in a good mood, this somewhat restless Qian Raccoon took the initiative to introduce Dick to the stone staircase hidden in the mist on the mountain wall in the distance of Yongchun Terrace, and Dick saw the staircase that almost stretched from the bottom of the fog yarn plank road to Yongchun Terrace.

It was a breathtaking sight.

It's hard to imagine that this could have been the work of a mortal, and that staircase that was almost carved out of the mountains seemed like an impossible task.

"It was a challenge from the stonemasons of the Panda people to this mountain, which Mogu claimed could never conquer, and before the Staircase of the Stonemason's Fool was built, it was called the Staircase of the Deadhead, like an impassable canyon from which at least nine of ten people would lose their lives. ”

The Monkey King's voice became calm, which didn't look like the words of a monkey, but in fact, it was, and the powerful demigod seemed to be lamenting the presence.

"You know what? In my eyes, Pandaria is very boring, I was born to be a monkey, I like all new things, but it was the time of the reign of Mogu, all happiness was forbidden, so we chose to rebel, after the victory, I thought I could be happy, but the time of happiness is always short, and the world has become boring again, I have been to all over the world in the first half of my life, those Night Elves, yes, I have seen them, but they are also very boring, so in the end I returned to Pandaria until I met Shao Hao. ”

"I've seen with my own eyes how those panda people stonemasons carved out this path on this mountain little by little, they hung themselves on the mountain with ropes, drifting in the wind, dangerous, they also had fear on their faces, but more of a perseverance, they didn't believe that a mountain could stop their steps, so they challenged this mountain after Mogu, it's hard to believe, in fact, until this staircase was dug up, I couldn't believe it, it was those mortals who did it, how many lives did they pay? How much danger, I don't know, but at the moment when the road was built, I also cheered with them. ”

After saying that, Kritic looked at Dick and said to him solemnly,

"Don't underestimate mortals! See, this path is the best proof that we never bother to do things, what we know we can't do, they can do it, so they are greater than us. ”

The Monkey King glanced at the road, bared his teeth, jumped into space, and the next moment jumped back again, handing Dick a mallet that was about to decay.

"Take it, it's one of the mallets used by the stonemasons who built the road, the panda people regard these things as the inheritance of will, I think they are mortal roars against the world, in short, this is a monumental thing, some people call it the hammer of absurdity. ”

Dick took it, looked at the wooden handle that had rotted away in the years, and looked up at the staircase that loomed in the mist,

"Then why is it called the Hammer of Ridiculous? That doesn't sound like a good name. ”

"Because that's the name my people used back then, and the buffalo people, and even the goldfishmen when they laughed at the panda people stonemasons, and they laughed at them for being fools, but they didn't know that they were really stupid. ”

Kritic's tail flicked,

"So this is the reason why 10,000 years later, the panda people dominated this continent, and my people, and the group of mocking guys back then, have become a group of beasts, without the persistence of great wisdom and foolishness, without the will to change the world, no amount of wisdom is just a joke. ”

Dick looked at Kritic playfully,

"Did you laugh at them back then?"

The Monkey King turned his face with a bared expression, "Stupid, don't ask this question!"

"Hahahaha"

Dick laughed happily, and then followed the depressed Monkey King on the road to Yongchun Terrace, which had to go deep into the mist, in fact, the fog before this palace was even heavier than the fog in the Splendid Valley, it seemed to be the core of all the fog in the entire continent, walking in it, Dick would even feel the weight of the entire heaven and earth pressing on him.

But he was a hero anyway, and the pressure was not a problem, so after a few minutes, he followed Kritik to the door of the vermilion majestic gate of Yongchun Terrace.

It can be seen that the architecture of the panda people has actually absorbed a lot of styles from the ancient architecture, especially the royal building, which is almost in line with the luxury of the ancient building, but it is not so aggressive, it is very comfortable, but there is a special majesty, which is not annoying oppression.

All in all, this is a great building, on the vermilion and gold intertwined gate, it is indeed as Kritik said, there is a heavy wrap of Titan energy, the four gods can definitely open this door, but Kritik did not ask for them, but asked Dick, it seems that except for the panda people, the other races of Pandalia are really a little against the four gods.

But this is not something Dick needs to pay attention to, after he made sure that the layer of energy in front of him was only used to seal and block, and had no power to fight back, he opened his left hand and placed it on the surface of the flowing sky blue Titan energy, like a stream of water, and his arm reached into it, pointing at the front of the gate.

The heavy Titan energy, which the demigod Kritik could not handle, spread out like a wave of water, and then quickly faded, as if it had a life of its own, disappearing through the crack in the gate, and placing the huge door in front of Dick and Kritic's eyes.

"It's Leyden's energy, and it seems that Shaohao's actions back then really got the attention of this guardian. ”

Dick said to himself, and then saw the Monkey King impatiently pushed open the door, how strong the power of the demigods was, until now it was a mystery, with a heavy clicking and rubbing sound, the gate that had been closed for nearly 10,000 years slowly opened, showing the gorgeous scenery in front of Dick's eyes.

It was a golden landscape, with fountains, pools, and the surrounding lush woods, and the splendid palaces, and a beautiful gilded pavilion, where the mist swirled, and in the space visible to Dick's naked eye, the mist formed a current, a whirlpool, which kept returning and dissipating.

Sure enough, this is the core of the mist of the entire Pandaria, that is, the place where Shao Hao incarnated into the mist.

The Monkey King had already scurried in, and Dick had followed him, stepping over the threshold, and the dust on the ground was rolling up and falling as he moved.

Ten thousand years, what a long time, the vicissitudes of life, the world turns, everything seems to have changed, but there is an admirable person who stays here day and night, just to protect his own kindred.

For this alone, Shao Hao deserves Dick's respect.

Of course, this palace is not without other creatures, such as when the gate is opened, a dragon covered in gold falls from the clouds and coils on the platform in front of it, blocking the footsteps of Kritic and Dick.

It was far more powerful than any Xianglong that Dick had ever seen, and of course it was not as powerful as Yulong, but it was definitely an opponent to be reckoned with, and it would be difficult for Dick to defeat it.

Excited at the roaring golden dragon, Kritik jumped up and tried to grab the candle dragon's beard, but he cried out,

"Candle Dragon, you idiot, don't you know me? I'm Kritic, your friend!"

The Monkey King's sharp voice made people want to cover their ears, but the golden Xianglong seemed to see a natural enemy, hurriedly rushed into the sky, hiding in the fog, no matter how Critic shouted, it just didn't show its head, the embarrassed appearance of running away, the kind of powerful and domineering appearance when he appeared just now was completely subverted, it seems that the relationship between this candle dragon and Critik is not as good as the Monkey King himself said.

Looking at Dick's curious gaze, Kritic was a little embarrassed, he scratched his head and explained,

"That's the candle dragon, Shao Hao's pet, when I traveled with Shao Hao, it only had... Well, it's so big! a little bit, like a little loach, and I'm playing with it, hey, stupid, what do you mean by that expression? Don't you believe me? Do you believe me beating you up or not?"

Dick hurriedly put away that skeptical expression, waved his hand, and coughed lightly,

"Ahem, it's okay, it's okay, I didn't mean that, let's hurry up and see Shao Hao, he's in front, isn't it?"

"Yes, yes, you're right, let's go see my old friend. ”

The expression on his face became elated again, and he rushed forward with his warrior monk's stick on his shoulder, three steps and two steps, and then stepped up the stairs, only to be blocked again.

It was a water spirit very similar to Imessus, Lei Shi, the blue water was surging behind her, almost exactly the same as Imessus at that time, this is a water spirit born in the flowing water of Yongchun Terrace, a little guy who was so innocent that he was rated as the "most cute" boss by players in his previous life.

In the original history, the evil energy polluted the entire Pandaria, even Yongchun Tai could not be avoided, Lei Shi saw the polluted water, became panicked, tried every means to remove the pollution, but finally put himself in, when the player fought with her, he was always very panicked and screamed, crying and fighting, every time he killed someone, Lei Shi would say in a fast crying voice,

"I didn't mean to. ”

But when the player helps her remove the corrosion, she will have a unique delicateness, with that fear emotion, bravely face fate, and finally sacrifice herself to open the way to fear for the player, that kind of weakness with a strong voice, has become a good memory in Dick's memory forever, and he even remembers the last words of Lei Shi before he died.

"I have to go, I can't muddy the water anymore, would you like to help?"

Seeing the flowing water spirit that stretched out his hand, a little frightened, but brave enough to block in front of Kritic, Dick stretched out his hand and blocked the somewhat irascible Monkey King, he looked at the panicked Lei Shi, and said in a soft voice,

"We're here to see Shao Hao, we won't break the seal, and we won't muddy your water, let's go over, okay? ”

"Ahh How do you know my name! No, I can't let you pass, the old man with the white beard said that no one can get near him!"

Resch heard Dick's voice and looked a little flustered, but still refused to give in, and Dick had to stretch out his left hand and put it in front of her,

"Then feel it, little Resh, we're not badass, actually, we're here to help, by the way, there's a water spirit named Irmessus out there, and like you, there's a dumb guy named Anvina, do you want to go out and play with them?"

Resch's arm touched Dick's left hand, and the reassuring taste of the Titan's energy made her hesitate, and finally, she asked a little timidly,

"But... But, Grandpa Whitebeard said, but you really don't look like a bad person... Can I go out and play? I haven't been outside, does anyone really look like me?"

Dick reached out and touched her head,

"Of course, you can, go ahead, we'll take care of everything, you're free. ”

Lei Shi cheered, and rushed towards the wide open gate like a child, mixed with the current, in fact, when the gate of Yongchun Terrace was opened, she found out, but she was too timid to even dare to face those people with the candle dragon, but when Kritik rushed to the platform, she bravely stood up again.

It's just because she promised Shao Hao that she would protect him, that's all.

Dick looked at Lei Shi's cheerful figure, and sighed with emotion, didn't he come to this point just because those tragedies in history would not happen again?

Pamela Jr., Mograine & Sons, Kael'thas, Sylvanas, etc... Isn't this the will to persevere?

His mood became so happy that he even hummed a northern tune, and followed Kritik to the gilded pavilion shrouded in mist, where an illusory, utterly mist, white-bearded pandaman of Resch was standing, and he seemed to be pleased, beckoning to Kritik, who was running towards him.

That is Shao Hao, a hero who sacrificed himself for the life of this land and stayed alone for 10,000 years.

Dick straightened his clothes and strode to the pavilion.

He was going to meet the legendary hero, to talk to him, to ask him for advice, to pay homage to him in the most formal manner, which was the most basic etiquette for a hero.

And Shao Hao, it's worth it.
