Chapter 5: Skywalker and the Red Old Man 2
Speaking of the reason why the Red Old Man is so familiar with Mercury Heaven, in fact, long before the Renaissance, when the Holy See was at its peak, the Red Old Man and Skywalker were old acquaintances. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoBecause the space planes of Mars and Mercury were both in Iceland, Iceland was not independent at that time, but belonged to the Norwegian royal family. The red old man is just a title, he is not old and does not look young, his demeanor is resolute, he has a big nose and a wide mouth, a square head and big ears, and he looks very honest and pedantic.
In the northern hemisphere, the Norwegian royal family will come to Iceland for the winter, because although it is located at high latitudes, it has a lot of geothermal resources and lava volcanoes. At that time, King Haakon II of Norway spent a lot of money to build a hollow palace outside the largest natural hot spring, in order to completely enclose the hot springs in the palace, so the cost of this construction was extremely shocking. However, when the construction started, there were problems, firstly, because the hot springs are located at a high altitude on the volcano, and the terrain is rugged, and secondly, when the monsoon comes, the volcanic ash chokes people on the sky, and many workers suffer from lung disease, and the mortality rate is extremely high. As a result, Haakon II convened a meeting to seek the opinions of the nobles.
A nobleman of great fame at the time said, 'This matter is beyond the reach of any man, and it is up to Odin, the king of the gods'
When Haakon II heard this, he was overjoyed and hurriedly asked the nobleman if there was a way to sacrifice.
The nobleman said, 'In the depths of the boundless, boundless black sand beach, there is a lava plain, and legend has it that the most powerful warrior in the world once declared war on Odin against Odin's law, and finally fell into the endless lava fire, splashing countless lava flowers, and those flowers fell on a plain and grew at a very fast speed, and finally gathered together into a mandala that reached into the sky, and Odin thought that this was the unyielding will of the warrior, and was moved by it, Gu poured a source of hope into the stamens of the heavenly mandala, and the source of hope can fulfill any wish in this earthly world'.
So, Haakon II led a team of capable generals to begin the journey. It was seven days and seven nights, and there was nothing to stop me except bad weather. As soon as the army entered the lava plain, they saw the mandala that reached the sky far away, but the dull wall gray, exuding the smell of death and ruin, looked depressing and dull. Haakon II's momentum was not insignificant, and the triangular descent-of-power arrangement of the men and horses seemed to be the final battle of the Elephant of Doom, and no one was relieved or rejoiced in the tiring journey that was about to end. Haakon II and his entourage saw a figure in the distance slowly walking towards them, with an oriental face, red blood eyes, and red armor like a god of war.
Thinking that this man was the ghost of the fallen warrior, Haakon II hurriedly dismounted to greet him.
The undead ask, 'Why are you here?'
Haakon II said, 'For the source of hope'
The Undead Ask, 'What Do You Want the Source of Hope to Do?'
Haakon II said 'for the sake of building a homeland'
The undead said, 'I can do this, let's go'
Haakon II was slightly displeased, in fact, he wanted to use the source of hope to realize his ambitions, but he was afraid that his inflated desires would anger the gods, so he could not get anything, so he had to agree.
This red undead spirit is really powerful, and within a few days a simple and solemn hollow palace was built, and not only that, but the building has been reinforced by divine power and will not be eroded by lava. In order to thank the deceased, Haakon II set up a special enshrinement table, the Heavenly Cardinal, which later became an institution, and the leaders of this institution were all dressed in red, and Gu was called a cardinal. And the undead is the Red Old Man, and the stamen of the Mandala is the Martian sky. It was not until after the Reformation that the Holy See collapsed, a new religious system was brought to the table, and the previous shrines were abolished, and the Martian guardians had to start anew. Therefore, this change is not accidental, but the inevitable result of going round and round, and the passage of time.
Devin was amazed that he could casually substitute the voice in his head as if it were his imagination. Eliehuo listened very carefully, although Dai Wen couldn't see his eyes, but after knowing him for so long, Dai Wen knew the meaning of each of his movements.
After a while, Elyfire clapped her hands and said, 'Good story'
Davin said happily, 'Now with these two prophets, we can take fewer detours', but Elie Huo didn't show any joy, 'But how can the next generation understand the next generation, don't be too optimistic', and then patted Dai Wen on the shoulder, and fell asleep.
