"Man, you must be blind!" Sonny pouted, "Sit down and eat your bread, it's a terrible joke!"

"I'm not kidding, there's really nothing there. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" Horn turned around, his expression serious.

"Don't do that, Horn, I'm scared. Saura moved to the side and leaned over to Sonny.

Curiosity always arouses human desire. Horn turned and walked to the stream, and without even putting on the saddle, he turned on his horse, used his mane as a rein, clamped his legs, and ran swiftly into the unknown darkness, leaving behind the cries of his two companions.

The road is farther than you think. He knew that Sonny and Sulla would follow, and that the unknown place might be the secret realm. The feeling of the wind whistling in his ears always reassured him, so he hurried his horse to run, and crossed another shallow stream, through a grove of weeds and trees, until he went into the unknown darkness.

With a mile to go, the two companions did catch up, but what he heard was Sonny's cursing. "Damn, what the hell are you trying to do? I passed through so many villages along the way, and I didn't see you stop to ask for a bowl of water!

The younger brother's voice suddenly disappeared from his ears, as if he had disappeared in an instant. Horn grabbed the reins and looked back to see that his two companions were gone, and when he looked back, he saw that the scene around him was changing abruptly. The grass and trees withered, the trees changed, the gravel fell into the dust, the fog gradually drifted away, everything was reduced to pieces, and the surroundings seemed to become an abyss.

He rubbed his eyes in horror, and when he opened them again, the surroundings had changed, no longer the deserted wilderness, but stone towers, but before he could take a second look, he was hit on the head. "Where's my three barrels of wine, stinky boy?" a voice said angrily.

Horn nearly fell off his horse in pain. He rubbed his head and saw that there was no half of the man in front of him, but when his eyes were focused on the horse's head, a small thing with white fangs and white hair was glaring at him with small dark eyes. "Fine..... Elf!" He jumped off his horse in fright, clutched his head and stepped back one after another, "There really are elves in this world!"

"Earth Spirit!" the white plush ball jumped off the horse's head and corrected, "I'm the Earth Spirit, you've been kicked in the head by a donkey!"

Horn fell to his knees with a thud. "Elven lord, be merciful, and tell me, how did my father die?"

"You..... You're crazy, aren't you?How do I know how your father died?" the old man raised his eyebrows in disappointment, "Damn, I seem to have mistaken someone, you're not the stinky boy who owes me three barrels of wine, but ..... How did you get in?"

Horn rolled his eyes. Sura said that there are elves living in the secret realm, who can predict the past and the future. ”

"Who is Sula?" the old man was even more confused.

"My friend, and Sonny, the three of us are from the North City. Horn gasped, "Can you let them in too?"

"There's another one?" the old man frowned, "No. However, if you have wine, you can consider it. ”

"Yes, yes, we have wine, we have. Horn nodded repeatedly.

The moment they saw Horn, Sonny and Sulla's faces were equally surprised. "Oh, God Namu forbid, we've found the secret realm?!and the elves!" Sonny looked around, curious about everything, including a brazier that seemed ordinary, but was actually ordinary.

"Hey, this kid said you got wine there. The old man tilted his head and said, "Where's the wine?"

"Wine?" Sonny blinked, "Elf-sama, you drink too?"

"Earth spirits, I am earth spirits. The old man frowned and reiterated, "My name is Maude, you can just call me Old Maude." Quick, get the wine, quick, quick. ”

"We were in too much of a hurry, and we didn't take it. Sonny said awkwardly.

"Go get it, don't you have horses?" urged Old Maude, "I haven't drunk since those stinky boys are gone." ”

After Sonny left, Horn sat cross-legged on the floor. "Can you foresee what is going on, Lord Maude? I have a question for you. The old man in front of him shook his head. "Oh, can you predict the future?" the old man shook his head. "Do you have any treasures, such as..... Destiny card?" The old man of the Earth Spirit still shook his head. "And what about this village.....? I mean, is there an earth spirit that can answer my question?"

Old Maude thought for a moment. "No, but you can pray to the Divine Fire, it can do anything. ”

"Really?" Horn leaned down.

"If the wine is not bad. ”

Horn was full of anticipation, thinking that the divine fire was something great, but he never thought that it was just a green fire in an empty underground palace in the old Maude Stone Tower. "What do you tell this thing to do?" he turned to look at the old man, who was bent over to pour him wine, but the glass was too small and mostly spilled on the floor.

"Don't talk nonsense, this is a gift from the god Namu!" Old Maud burped, "close your eyes, make a wish to it, and tell it everything you want to ask and want to know." ”

"Try it, Horn, it's green. Sula said timidly, the dampness and coldness of the dungeon made her a little uncomfortable.

Horn closed his eyes. The heart continued to pray to the Namu God, and Professor Eugene's eulogy came in handy again. He began to fantasize about his father's face, which gradually became clear and clear, but eventually became the cold corpse lying in the sarcophagus.

When I opened it again, the green fire jumped in front of my eyes, but nothing happened.

"Did it tell you the answer?" asked Sulla anxiously.

"Nope. Horn said coldly, then turned to his feet. "Maude-sama, you lied to us?"

"Earth spirits never make up lies. Old Maude put down her fingernail-sized cup and leaped onto Horn's shoulder. "Son, instead of listening to others, see for yourself, but remember that you can't change anything, and don't trust your eyes too much. From now on, do as I say, close your eyes, and reach out to the divine fire. The voice echoed through the dungeon, gradually becoming distant. "Do you feel its temperature?"

"Nope. Horn replied softly.

"Then go a little deeper, and the further you go, the more you can see the answer you want....."

When he opened it again, Horn found himself in front of a door—a large oval mouth set in a wall shaped by a human face—with two statues of stone dragons. He boldly walked inside, and found himself back in the dungeon, but old Maud was nowhere to be found, as were Sula and Sonny.

Confused, he followed the path he had come from through the low hall and back to the surface. Outside, the sun was shining and glaring, and it seemed like it was a new day, and the Earth Spirit Elder Maud was waiting for him in front of him.

"Where are my friends?" he asked, as he approached.

"Friend?" said Old Maude, smiling, "how do I know?

Horn suppressed the anger in his heart. "I'll ask you one last time, where are Sonny and Sura?!!"

"It's okay to answer the question, you have to get me a drink. Old Maude said with a smile.

Horn looked around and saw that his horse was nowhere to be seen. So, he rushed out of the secret realm in a rage, but as soon as he took the first kick, he almost fell. The world changed, the earth was covered with snow, the cold wind howled wantonly, the fields were replaced by snow, and everything that could be seen in front of them turned pale.

He cursed the worst of swear words, pulled his boots out of the snow, and made his way to the camp last night. After a few steps, there was an army in front of him, he tied his long chestnut hair with a rope, and just as he was about to come forward to ask, suddenly a man drew his sword and slashed, and he deftly dodged the blow..... When the man's face came into view, Horn froze in place.

"Are you..... What is it?" the man asked him.

Dad, I'm Horn. It was really hard to hold back tears, he thought.
