The name of the Gray Mist City Lord is Tang Weide, and he seems to have the same surname as Tang Liyu...... Of course, this is impossible, Tang Weide may just be a separate surname or first name, and theoretically it will not be the surname Tang Weide. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info this city lord is about forty years old, with sallow skin, haggard complexion, dark eye circles, and pale blonde hair covering his head like grass, which should be caused by the loss of his beloved daughter, excessive worry and sadness. Even he couldn't get up to greet the guests, so he could only recline on a long couch and express his apologies to Zhang Lu and his party.

Zhang Lu has always had a question in his heart, in the hotel in Wild Donkey Town, he couldn't get the answer from the head of the proprietress - it is estimated that the other party is not clear - and waited until he met the city lord Tang Weide, and then asked: What is the name of Dragon Bone Mountain? Is it related to the dragon?

It seems that in the world of fog, dragons are also quite powerful legendary creatures, because Zhang Lu asked this, he immediately noticed that Sauron and the others were all condensed, and they pricked up their ears, waiting intently for the city lord's answer.

The city lord nodded: "According to ancient legends, there is indeed a connection. Of course, legends are just legends......" He took a long breath, took the wine glass handed by the slave, took a small sip, and then continued: "It is said that at the beginning of time, the god of order Fan chased and killed the demon dragon of the Chaos Realm, and after going through dozens of worlds, he finally suppressed it after arriving here. Then he stripped the skin and flesh of the demon dragon and created two continents, and the demon dragon bone was sealed here as the center of the world, and it became the dragon bone mountain......"

Priest Mather immediately retorted: "You are wrong, it is the god of observation that suppresses the demon dragon under the service, not the god of order, and the center of the world should be in the ......."

The city lord smiled and interrupted him: "I said it, it's just a legend...... I don't believe in either the god of order or the god of observation, the people in the jurisdiction of Grey Mist City generally believe in the god of labor, Xia, and the goddess of fertility, Su ......" as he spoke, pointing to a velvet blanket hanging on the wall behind him, "My family's family emblem is also derived from the symbols of these two gods......"

Zhang Lu looked up and saw a peculiar pattern embroidered on the velvet carpet, with a ploughshare on the top, a circle and a triangle on the bottom, and a monster with a lion's head and a snake body embroidered on top of the two.

"From the beginning of time, the origin of the world to today, even the most conservative version has been 8,000 years, the families have been extinct, the inhabitants have migrated, and no one remembers whether this place was ruled by the people of Fan God earlier. Only the name 'Dragonbone Mountain' and the legend attached to it have survived, and that's it. ”

Mage Zimmer muttered, "If the legend is not unfounded, then since the secret passage discovered in your city leads to the Dragon Bone Mountain, it is possible that its end point suppresses and seals the bones of the demon dragon......

The corners of the city lord's mouth twitched slightly: "This is impossible, this gray fog city was built by my family, and the history is more than 400 years, which can be checked." Even if the secret passage was set up at the time of the founding of the city, it can't be related to the myth at the beginning of time - what, is the gentleman scared?"

The mage smiled: "Exploring the unknown is the purpose of our Dharma Master's existence, and we will not be afraid of ancient legends, but will only stimulate stronger curiosity." ”

"I hope you can help me find my daughter, and as long as she is alive and in good spirits, I will marry her to one of you and give her a rich dowry, and if she has already suffered misfortune......" At this, the city lord's voice was a little choked, and he reached out and rubbed his eyes, "Then I hope to be able to recover her body...... Although the marriage is difficult, the reward will never be less......" Then his eyes slowly scanned everyone: "I hope you will remember your main mission, even if you really discover the legendary secret, if you can't find the little girl, I won't pay you." ”

After saying these words, the lord of the city took his leave, leaving behind an old butler with gray hair, who described in detail the appearance and dress of his young lady to the people, and then prepared a sumptuous banquet, and invited the guests to enter the secret passage to carry out their mission after a full meal.

Sauron and the others chewed on the case, and their mouths were full of oil, but Zhang Lu and the others were not very interested in the food - the ingredients were acceptable, the cooking techniques were too rough, and there were almost no other seasonings other than salt - they just ate a few bites and put them down. According to Zhang Lu's judgment, it is also made of wheat, with a lot of honey added, and the taste is fresh and sweet, but unfortunately there are too many impurities, obviously not filtered.

When the meal was finished, the butler led the group to the depths of the castle, where six heavily armed guards stood guard near the hill wall. The butler pressed a few times on a wall somewhere, and a stone door moved silently, revealing a stone passage inside, dark and gloomy, and it was not clear where it led.

The relevant materials for the expedition were also prepared, including torches, ropes, grappling hooks, etc., as well as enough water and dry food for eight people for two days, and they were made into two large bags. The housekeeper suggested that if you searched for a whole day and found nothing, it was better to withdraw for the time being and reprepare the supplies, so as not to get stuck in it and cut off the water and drink.

Sauron made a look, and the warrior Jude immediately held the sword in both hands and preemptively entered the secret passage: "I'll go first!" Zhang Luxin said that you are a warrior, of course, you have to be the first, and you need to say, Are you still afraid that we will not be able to take your place? The priest raised a lit torch and followed the warrior into the room; the mage pointed to the burden on the ground: "I have limited strength, I can't carry it much, which of you will come?" After speaking, the third got in.

Zhang Lu understood, Sauron wanted his companion to find the city lord miss first, so that he could go forward to pay his respects, and then that group of credits was the greatest, and he was the most enthusiastic with the young lady, could it be that the city lord would marry his daughter to Feng? Sure enough, the kid didn't say a word, and directly followed the mage in.

The remaining four looked at each other with a mocking look in their eyes. Feng Heran is just talking about it, but in fact, he is not interested in any blonde beauty or the city lord's lady - do you really want to leave your family and leave in the world of fog and water? As for sleeping and leaving, it violates the moral norms of the Tianyuan world, and he can't do it even if he is windy-the purpose of this trip is only the so-called "ancient artifact", so you are willing to stand up to the front, as long as I don't rob you of the beauty, and I don't compete for rewards afterwards, it will not be considered because of people, and I will pick the fruits of other people's victories with a shy face.

Tang Liyu carried both of the burdens one in one hand, and Zhang Lu hurriedly snatched one from her hand: "Maybe there will be a battle, but if you have both hands, you won't be able to fight." "In the end, it was decided that Feng Heran was the first to enter the secret passage, and then Zhang Lu, the third Tang Liyu, and Li Yanchao's strongest combat power were used for the queen of the palace.

The entrance of the secret passage is not wide, at most it can accommodate two people to advance side by side, and after walking for a while, it gradually expands, wider than two zhang, and more than one zhang high. Zhang Lu looked ahead, and saw that Sauron's team walked out of a zigzag shape, the warrior was naturally in the front, the priest was holding a torch and followed closely behind the side, the mage was on the other side, and half behind the priest, and the blonde boy Sauron was last, holding a torch in his right hand, a bow in his left hand, and a feathered arrow in his left hand.

Looks like a ranger...... If it's a thief, you should go to the front, and go to the trap first. Zhang Luxin said that if this is in the open field, such a formation is matched from far and near, and the milk is complete, which is quite standard, but in the dungeon, it is very dangerous to have no thieves.

In contrast, there was almost no formation in their team, Zhang Lu walked and walked side by side, not to mention Li Yanchao and Tang Liyu in the back, maybe they quietly held hands again...... Because theoretically speaking, this team has no professional cooperation, all four of them can be frank and can also output, but there is no milk, and if they are injured, they can only take medicine and carry hard. Some of Zhang Lu's spells can be used in this life, in fact, they can be used as half milk, but he has not tried it yet, and he doesn't know how good the treatment effect can be.

The road is made of stone, and the basic direction is oblique downward, with occasional twists and turns, and it should lead straight to the depths of Keel Mountain. At first, at intervals, there were traces of broken nails on the stone walls, presumably used to place oil lamps or torches, and there were occasional narrow stone chambers—all of them went in and surveyed them, but found nothing but rotten grain and straw. After walking for about a mile, the traces of piling up and plastering on the stone wall gradually disappeared, and it became a natural cave that seemed to have been artificially and simply widened.

It's a pity that there were no traps or traps along the way, allowing the team lacking thieves in front of them to go unimpeded. Of course, the four-man squad did not stride forward regardless of the recklessness, and the warrior was always on guard, looking around vigilantly with every step forward, believing that even if there were simple traps or traps, he would not be easily attacked.

However, such a preoccupied search was too exhausting, so when they came to the natural cavern, Sauron suggested that everyone stay for a while and recuperate. Zhang Lu and the other four were still in good spirits, but it was not easy to disobey each other's intentions, so they sat down against the mountain wall, took a breath, and drank a few sips of water.

As the warrior rested, Sauron stuck his torch in the ground, then took his bow and arrows in both hands and stared into the darkness beyond. Zhang Luxin said that this kid doesn't seem to be a complete playboy, but he still has a certain sense of responsibility......

Because it is likely that the slightest noise will indicate an enemy attack, after descending the secret passage, the front four teams all take their steps lightly and try not to make a little noise, so as not to interfere with the hearing and hearing of their companions. When Zhang Lu and the others saw this situation, they could only imitate it--the front side was carefully searching, and the footsteps behind were chattering, mixed with wanton talk and laughter, what kind of words did that look like? Zhang Lu and the others really didn't regard the other party as a competitor, so there was no need to deliberately sabotage.

When you sit down and rest, you can finally relax and have a few conversations. Just listen to the mage said: "Regarding the suppression of the demon dragon by the ancient gods, there are similar legends in many places, and there are many relics left, most of which have been explored and proved to be nonsense. But this Dragon Bone Mountain, I have heard for the first time that it is the God of Order Fan who suppresses the demon dragon......"

The priest interrupted him: "It is the God of Observation Sang who suppresses the demon dragon, not Fan!"

The mage pouted and smiled: "Okay, okay, anyway, I haven't seen any records of the Gray Mist City Secret Passage and the Dragonbone Mountain Ruins, maybe we can really find some ancient ruins this time." ”

Sauron was still staring at the darkness in front of him, and he didn't look back, but he interjected, "Borrow your auspicious words...... Actually, I don't have much hope of marrying this young lady, the young lady has been in the secret passage for more than ten days, how can she still be alive? I just hope to find her bones......" Then raised his voice slightly: "The latter ones, have you explored similar underground ruins before?"

Zhang Lu asked rhetorically, "What about you?"

The mage smiled, "I've had two experiences. Once in Strongstone County, there was an underground labyrinth occupied by goblins, and once in the famous corpse bunker, we went down to the fourth level......"

Zhang Luxin said what else is famous...... How could Lao Tzu have heard of it! He said casually: "We also said twice, once Maraton, killed the Rock Princess, and once went to the Dark Hell, and killed the Great Pineapple, the God of Destruction." ”

Although she couldn't understand what Zhang Lu was saying at all, Tang Liyu still turned her head, covered her mouth, and her shoulders twitched slightly.

The mage asked suspiciously, "I haven't heard of it...... Are you on your continent? You can kill gods?!"

Zhang Lu shrugged his shoulders: "God-killing, you said big pineapple?oh, that's just a monster claiming to be a god......"

Sauron in front of him suddenly "shh The priest leaned in and whispered, "What did you find?" Sauron shook his head, "There was a slight noise......

It was estimated that the feather arrow shot straight away, and when it was time to land, suddenly there was a whistling sound in front of them, and then a violent wind swept in, and the torches in the hands of several people were immediately extinguished, and the darkness completely swallowed them......

Zhang Lu and the others have dim vision, but at this moment, there is no light in the cave, and they can't really see their five fingers, unless they have the attribute of "dark vision". Everyone instinctively clenched their weapons—Tang Liyu had no weapons, so she had to clench her fists—and concentrate on vigilance. Since Zhang Lu's vision can't see, he completely lets go of the rest of his senses, and then adds "looking at it with his heart"——

He sensed a faint hint of familiar astringency on the tip of his tongue, and couldn't help but smack his lips and remind his companion, "It's foggy!" That's right, it was the smell of the gray mist that had fallen around dawn outside Grey Mist City.

Suddenly there was a faint light in front of him, had someone rekindled the flames, but the light of the fire was dim and dimmed again...... Indeed, they have been shrouded in a gray mist...... (To be continued.) )
