Chapter 147: Talking
As the alcohol began to flow in the blood, Zhang Cheng's blue face finally had a hint of redness, and his body began to gradually become warmer.
Although he knew very well that this warmth was nothing more than an illusion, a side effect of dilated blood vessels, increased blood circulation, and increased calorie expenditure, it was still a little stronger than just now.
Putting down the empty cup and bottle in his hand, he turned to the maid who had broken in and ordered, "Go, prepare me a lamb soup and two pieces of bread, and if there is a fresh fish, stew one." Remember, don't put too much spice in it, I like the lighter flavor. ”
Obviously, the maid was taken aback by this unscrupulous attitude and hurriedly turned her eyes to her mistress for advice.
But before Daenerys could speak, Jorah Mormont stepped forward first, and said to the maid in a low voice, "Do as he says, Missandei." Also, let the Unsullied outside the door leave. ”
"Do you recognize him?" Daenerys' eyes flashed with a strange color.
"Yes, Queen. Do you remember that a merchant said not long ago that a mighty knight had appeared among the Seven Kingdoms?" asked Jorah Mormont in a whisper.
Daenerys remembered for a few seconds and immediately nodded, "Yes, that knight seems to be called Mason Asplin, right......?
Standing in front of you is Mason Aspurin, also known as the invincible Mason. And according to the latest news, he also seems to have cast a powerful spell at the Battle of Blackwater, destroying Stannis's proud cavalry. Jorah Mormont selectively recounted the information he had just received from Varys.
He wasn't quite sure why the creature labeled "Extremely Dangerous" by the Octopus Spider was in Astapor and riding a huge dragon.
"You're the legendary Mason?!" Daenerys raised an eyebrow, a curious look on her face.
"Legendary?hahahaha!" I don't know if it was under the influence of alcohol, Zhang Cheng suddenly laughed out loud, shaking his head while laughing: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect that I would actually become a legendary character." After all, I am not yet thirty years old, and according to the normal life expectancy of human beings, I should still be in the category of young people. So please call me Mason, and don't add any modifiers or adjectives, or I'll feel funny. ”
"All right, Sir Mason. Can you answer my question, why do you have a dragon too?......" Daenerys paused slightly, and the meaning was self-evident.
Because Valyria has been destroyed for so long, the world has long forgotten that thousands of dragons were tamed there, so when it comes to taming dragons, the first thing that comes to mind is the Targaryens.
Obviously, she regarded Zhang Cheng as a member of the Targaryen family, or a part of the Targaryen family blood in her body.
After all, since becoming the master of Westeros, the Targaryen family has married many families in order to maintain the stability of their rule, and even has a large number of illegitimate children, so it is not surprising that one can pop up occasionally.
Of course, Zhang Cheng knew what the other party was thinking, and hurriedly waved his hand: "No, please don't misunderstand." I don't have any blood relationship with you, and I don't have the ability to survive the fire. Strictly speaking, I'm just an ordinary person, and I don't know if I'm lucky or unlucky. ”
Daenerys obviously didn't believe this, turned around and glanced at Kulo Kirba, who was lying quietly on the balcony, and asked, "Then how did you tame a dragon?"
As the Mother of Dragons, she knew all too well how wild dragons could be, and even she couldn't keep any of them in peace.
"Hehe, can you satisfy my curiosity in exchange for satisfying your curiosity before I satisfy it?" Zhang Cheng smiled and blinked, and began to take the initiative in the conversation.
You must know that he flew across the sea overnight not to admire the beauty and figure of the other party, but to get some information of interest.
"Yes!, please!" Daenerys agreed without thinking.
"First of all, I would like to know the specifics of the apocalypse in Valyria. As one of the very few Targaryens who survived the disaster, there must be some documentary records, right?Secondly, I would like to know what it is about you to keep the fire alive, and if it is convenient, can you give me a little of your blood?Finally, and most importantly, did you feel anything incredible when you hatched the dragon eggs?"
Zhang Cheng did not hide his intentions at all, and put forward the three mysteries that he most desperately wanted to solve in one breath.
In particular, the apocalyptic catastrophe in Valyria is definitely not a natural disaster, such as an earthquake, tsunami, or volcanic eruption, but the result of a mysterious energy that is out of control, otherwise it would never have been impossible for the dragon to escape.
He even felt that this disaster was likely to be an explosion of energy caused by the fall of a part of the crimson comet.
This also means that somewhere in the ruins, there is a pure energy crystal, a treasure that is both dangerous and extremely valuable.
If he can get it, Zhang Cheng will be able to create another energy source, and he won't have to worry about going back to waste, and the knowledge and research results he has obtained in this world will be in vain.
"The Valyrician Doomsday?" Daenerys opened her mouth wide in surprise, and said in an uncertain tone after a long while, "I seem to have heard people mention it before, it is said that the surrounding mountains of five hundred miles erupted at the same time, pouring countless ashes, smoke and flames into the sky, and even the dragon did not escape the catastrophe. Why do you ask this?"
"To be more specific, these are just the versions that ordinary people have heard, and I need to hear the versions that are unique to the House of Targaryen. Zhang Cheng urged with a dissatisfied face.
Daenerys shrugged her shoulders helplessly: "I'm sorry, I've been running away since I was born, and I haven't read the literature on this at all. But I can tell you where to find them. ”
"What?" Zhang Cheng's eyes suddenly flashed with two fine lights.
"Dragonstone! Everything about the history of the Targaryen family is stored in the rotunda on the top floor of the Stone Drum Tower. If Stannis hadn't thrown them away, you should have found them easily. Daenerys gave a straightforward answer.
"......I see," Zhang Cheng nodded thoughtfully.
Although Dragonstone is a barren and inhospitable place, it is the place where the Targaryens first landed in Westeros, and every heir to the throne is crowned Prince of Dragonstone, which shows the importance of this small island.
