Chapter 197: All Cause and Effect

The king of the dry dragons is going to cross the border

How to train your dragon

"That's what you call the Dry Dragon King?" The detective asked, surprised.

"That's right...... "Daddy Zhao said slowly in a hoarse voice, "It's just that it hasn't taken shape yet...... It's just a big Jiao! ”

"What? Jiao? Is there really such a thing in this world? The detective asked in surprise.

"Hmmm! This guy will show up every ten years! As he spoke, Father Zhao walked to a corner of the cellar, took out a shiny dagger from a dilapidated cabinet, and carved a knife on the wall.

And with the dim yellow light flickering, countless large and small knife marks densely covered the entire wall.

After Father Zhao finished carving the knife mark, he took the knife back into the cabinet and sighed: "I have been here for almost fifty years, counting this time, this kind of thing has happened five times." ”

Speaking of this, Father Zhao slowly raised his head, looked at the detective and the three of them, and after a while, continued: "But this time, I am really not sure that I can take you alive to get through." ”

"Why?" The detective asked in surprise. "Didn't it go the other way? Why did you come to us again? ”

"Because of that friend of yours!" Daddy Zhao wiped the blood dripping from his face with his sleeve. "He took what he shouldn't have taken and went where he shouldn't have been."

"You mean Old Wu?" Xiao Liu asked in surprise, "What's wrong with him?" Why did it suddenly become like that? Where did he go? ”

Although Xiao Liu said this by looking at Father Zhao, he was more like asking the detective, because after all, the only person present at that time was the detective himself.

Who opened the closed door?

What the hell is all this going on?

What happened in those few minutes?

What exactly was the thing on the right side of the shrine that was taken by Lao Wu?

All of this may only be known to the detective and Daddy Zhao.

After a long time, the inspector suddenly sighed, and he said slowly: "Not long after you went downstairs, I was also going downstairs to eat." I originally wanted to call Lao Wu with me, but when I went to his room, I found that there was no one inside. ”

The detective sat slowly on the ground against the wall, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took out a dot from it, and took a few puffs before he slowly continued: "I thought he went downstairs one step ahead of me, but who would have thought, at this time, Daddy Zhao's room that originally didn't let us get close suddenly came with a burst of laughter." ”

"Laughter? Whose laughter? Xiao Liu asked nervously.

"Of course it's Lao Wu's laughter, he laughs very weirdly, but I can still hear it at once It's Lao Wu's laughter." The detective took a slow drag on his cigarette and said, "After hearing this laughter, I rushed to the room inside and saw ...... See ......"

"What do you see?" Xiao Liu hurriedly asked.

I saw that the old boy was holding a black ceramic doll and kissing constantly, and he kept laughing. It was like hugging the most famous and beautiful princess in a nightclub. Tanchang said in a hoarse voice: "When he saw me come in, he was stunned at first, and then he hid the ceramic doll in his waist, I wanted him to put the doll back, but ......"

"But what's wrong?" The scholar asked at this time.

"But at this time, a cloud of black smoke suddenly burrowed into Lao Wu's body, and then he threw himself down at once." The detective sighed with palpitations, "You all know what happened after that." ”

"What is Lao Wu holding on? Why is it so evil? The scholar glanced at Father Zhao and asked.

"That's the snake spirit!" Father Zhao didn't look at them, but looked down at the big yellow dog Erlang lying beside him, "It's also called dragon bait!" It is specially used to lure and capture the Dry Dragon King! ”

"What? Capture the Dry Dragon King? Several people couldn't help but be shocked when they heard Daddy Zhao's words.

"Yes! You heard it right! Father Zhao said this, leaning against the wall and slowly stood up, "Our Zhao clan has been collecting in this barren land for several lifetimes, just to find dragons, hunt dragons, and then take out the gentian and sacrifice it to that place." ”

"That place? Where? The Inspector asked.

"Oh? You don't know? Father Zhao took two steps, heard the inspector's words, turned around and asked in surprise, "Didn't anyone tell you where you are going?" ”

"I didn't ...... No! The Inspector stammered, "We just know that we're going down to fetch something called the Torth Disk, and we don't know anything else!" ”

Father Zhao looked at the three people in front of him, as if looking at a monster, and after a long time, he slowly sighed and said, "Okay! The ignorant are fearless, and it is good if you don't know, which may be a blessing for you. ”

As he spoke, he walked to the middle of the ground, turned back to the scholar and said, "Young man, hand me the shovel in the corner!" ”

"Good...... Okay! The scholar hurriedly handed a rusty shovel standing in the corner to Father Zhao.

Father Zhao took the shovel and began to dig in the middle of the small cellar.

"Can you tell us about that place?" After a while, the detective couldn't hold it anymore and asked out loud. "Tell me where we're going!"

When Father Zhao heard the inspector's words, he couldn't help but stop the movements in his hands, looked at the three of them with a shovel for a while, and said slowly: "You want to know?" ”

"Yes!" The three replied in unison.

"Oh well! Here's to you, keep digging! Father Zhao handed the shovel in his hand to Xiao Liu, then walked to the wall and sat down, picked up the oversized cigarette pouch he hung on his waist, lit a bag of cigarettes, took a few puffs slowly, and said softly: "Have you ever heard of a place called the City of Prophecy?" ”

"City of Prophecy?" The scholar repeated these four words, and after repeating them a few times, he said lightly: "I haven't heard of it!" ”

"I've heard of it!" Xiao Liu, who was digging the soil on the other hand, suddenly put the shovel in his hand and gasped: "It is an ancient city that disappeared overnight, it is said that it should be a civilization that suddenly arose around the Yuan Dynasty, the white city walls seem to fall from the sky, and they can be seen from dozens of kilometers away with a mysterious light, no one knows where they came from, and no one knows why they suddenly disappeared overnight." There is not even a single record in the historical records, as if it never appeared, and it is as if someone deliberately deleted all their information. It wasn't until five or six years ago that someone accidentally dug up the walls and houses where they once lived, and found clues from the songs that had been passed down from generation to generation in the mouths of the local elders, which proved the existence of this place with the name of the city of light. ”

"Hmm!" Father Zhao nodded with satisfaction. "That's right!"

"However, as far as I know, the place where it was discovered is in Inner Mongolia, what does it have to do with it?" Xiao Liu asked in surprise.

"All cause and effect have an origin, don't they?" Father Zhao looked at Xiao Liu and said, "And this is the origin of everything." ”

"You mean to say that the place we're going to is the real City of Prophecy?" Xiao Liu said in surprise.

"That's right!" Father Zhao nodded, and took a big puff of cigarette, his cigarette was very choking, the big yellow dog Erlang who choked on the side couldn't stop hitting two spray paints, Father Zhao smiled and touched Erlang's head, and slowly continued: "Although this place is a desert, the sky is full of yellow sand, and there is not a drop of rain all day long, but don't forget, the source of the Yellow River, which has raised billions of Chinese, is not far away." And there's an underground river, it's a branch of the Yellow River, and we people here call it the Lonnie Chicken, which means the dragon's jaw. Where there is a river, there is water, and where there is water, there is naturally a dragon! ”

Father Zhao looked at Xiao Liu when he said this, and said slowly: "Keep digging, don't stop!" ”

"Oh...... Good! Xiao Liu took a moment and continued to dig.

Seeing Xiao Liu digging up, Father Zhao slowly continued: "And our Zhao clan is the dragon tamer in this realm." ”

"How to train your dragon?" The three of them asked in unison, surprised. "The dragon you're talking about, the one outside?"

"Yes!" Father Zhao nodded, "What the posterity boy said just now is right, the whole city of prophecy is white and flawless, and it can be seen radiant dozens of kilometers away, and the white city wall is built of dragon bones." As for where this keel came from, I don't need to say more! ”

"Yes...... But ......" the detective stammered and wanted to ask something.

At this time, Xiao Liu's shovel suddenly sounded, obviously digging something.

Hearing this voice, Father Zhao's whole body was shocked, he hurriedly got up, and walked to Xiao Liu's side tremblingly.

"Get out of the way!" Daddy Zhao said.

After speaking, he didn't say a word, and began to dig the soil vigorously with his hands, seeing that Father Zhao's hands like eagle claws dug deeper and deeper, and a black vat gradually appeared in the eyes of the four people.

This post is very large, with a diameter of at least about one meter and a half, and even if the four people on the field jump in again, it will not be crowded at all.

The mouth of the vat was tightly sealed with the skin of an animal, but even so, you could still faintly smell a fragrant smell wafting from the vat!

What is it?

Is it wine?

At this time, Daddy Zhao still has the heart to drink?

Does he want to get drunk and relieve a thousand sorrows?

Or do you want to use this vat of wine to get drunk with the so-called Dry Dragon King?

The three of them all set their eyes on Daddy Zhao, only to see that Daddy Zhao was expressionless at this time, and after a while, the originally excited face gradually showed a sad face.

I only heard him frown and say, "Not good! ”
