Chapter 181: The Legend of the Dragon

In the evening, Feng Ren and Huo Yun, who were walking together, finally stepped into the Dragon City. Looking at this important military fortress in the northwest of Beiting, the two of them invariably felt the majestic sense of majesty for the first time in their hearts, and the majesty of the Beiting Army could be seen.

"If you go out from the north gate of Dragon City, you will basically walk to the boundary line of the north courtyard. However, our goal is there, and if we don't go, we can't do it. I heard that this dragon city, which can be regarded as one of the northwest fortresses of the Beiting Empire, is defending against orcs. Perhaps, this time we will run into a race that is a fierce rival to humans. As soon as Feng Ren entered the city gate, he began to sigh.

Huo Yun smiled: "That's the best. My sword, but I've never fought an orc. ”

Orcs, as the name suggests, are a combination of beasts and humans. While they inherited the innate and strong physique of the Warcraft, they also gained the spiritual wisdom and cultivation talent of human beings. However, as an orc race that has absorbed the strengths of both, it is impossible to really get all the two advantages, but it is a bit mixed and not refined.

However, compared to Warcraft, orcs are able to establish their own kingdom like humans, and they are also superior in organization, and they dare to take the initiative to wage war with human forces. As a result, although the comprehensive strength of orcs is far inferior to that of many high-level Warcraft families, their threat to humans is higher.

For Huo Yun's full of fighting spirit, Feng Ren poured cold water on it: "Now going out to take the initiative to provoke the orcs, I'm afraid it's no different from looking for death." ”

"Why?" Huo Yun was a little surprised, but he could also hear a hint of arrogance in his tone.

"Orcs are not good at herding or farming, but only hunting and plundering. Now that winter is approaching, it is the most frequent time for them to come out in droves to plunder, thought. Below the domain level, no matter how high your cultivation is, being trapped by tens of thousands of orcs can only fight to the death. We are here to find medicine, and we have to be in a hurry, so we don't want to make extraneous branches. ”

A lot of information in the Beiting territory, Feng Ren was forcibly memorized in the Cangyu Sect before coming. I didn't have time to remember it, but I printed a copy of it with me, so I naturally knew the situation around me very well.

However, speaking of this, Feng Ren's heart suddenly tightened. He instantly understood why Qi Xian had received an urgent military situation today and rushed to this Dragon City, I am afraid that it was the orc's plundering troops that were dispatched again.

If that's the case, it's not easy to get out of the city through the north gate. The difficulty of orcs lies in their terrifying numbers, especially this season.

"Okay, listen to you. Let's go find the Zhou family's caravan first, it should be of some help. Huo Yun also knew that he had no ability to get out of the herd, so he had to give up. The fight he had said before was just a casual mention, and he didn't have much interest in fighting the orcs at all. What's more, there is wind and tenacity by his side all the way, so why worry that no one has a good time.

Feng Ren smiled: "It's okay." The scale of the Zhou family caravan is not small, and it should have traveled a lot of places. We should also be able to use their own information, and we may be able to ask for something. ”

As the two of them talked, they had gradually walked to a square in Dragon City, and their eyes were attracted by a huge bronze statue in the center at the same time.

On the granite platform, which is dozens of square meters and more than five meters high, the majestic bronze statue stands impressively on it. Looking at the current situation, it should be a giant dragon hovering in mid-air, looking down at the people in front of him, and under his claws, he still pressed a hideous-looking demonic beast tightly, completely suppressing it.

The dragon's eyes widened in rage, and the beast under its claws seemed to struggle in horror, fearing that the bronze statue was a description of the battle between the two.

Huo Yun looked up at the majestic bronze statue, touched his chin and said, "What does this bronze statue mean? Moreover, this serpentine dragon should be an ancient true dragon that has been extinct for many years, and it is far from the current kind of flying dragon. In other words, the current bipedal wyvern is just the species that inherits the bloodline of the ancient god dragon the most. ”

Feng Ren patted Huo Yun on the shoulder and said, "Do you want to know the origin of this bronze statue?"

Say. ”

"I'm a little hungry, how about eating and talking?" Feng Ren smiled weirdly.

"Okay. I'm in for a treat. ”

"That's it. ”

Looking along Feng Ren's fingers, a restaurant with extremely luxurious decoration came into Huo Yun's eyes, and his heart twitched. Just by seeing the appearance of that restaurant, Huo Yun knew that consumption was destined to be very high. But thinking about it, I also searched the caravan at noon, and the curiosity in my heart was suddenly hooked by Feng Tenacity, but fortunately I decided to indulge it once.

Half an hour later, the two of them were already in the third-floor box of the restaurant, Huo Yun handed the ordered menu to a waitress who came to serve with some pain, and then looked at Feng Ren in front of him with anticipation.

Feng Ren smiled, took a sip of the teacup in his hand and moistened his throat before he spoke: "Here, there is a legend from five hundred years ago. At that time, Beiting was still a nomadic people, but it gradually grew. Finally, after gathering dozens of small tribes around them, they counterattacked several kingdoms and merged them into one empire, which was called Beiting. ”

"Is it okay to say the point?" Huo Yun was a little impatient.

"Isn't it good to tell a story, to have more preludes and foreshadowing? Okay, okay, don't stare at me, I'll just go on. Since Beiting was only a nomad before, he had dealt with orcs all year round, and he knew how powerful they were. Although the Beiting Army's cavalry combat method is extremely exquisite, they also know that they are somewhat powerless to resist the orc army alone, and it is best to rely on the iron walls of the fortified city to defend it. As a result, they chose to build several cities in the northwest of the empire, which can also be called military fortresses to prevent orcs from attacking. One of them is the Dragon City under our feet. ”

Feng Ren was still selling Guanzi, but Huo Yun also vaguely thought of some clues, and did not stop it again.

"However, out of the total nine cities, the construction of eight except for the Dragon City has been very smooth, but this one has suffered many hardships. It is alleged that in the first week of the start of the construction of the outer walls alone, there were more than a dozen accidents in a row, and they were not man-made. Later, an officer in charge of security seemed to see some signs, and relied on his connections to find an old man, who was said to be a high-ranking man. It is said that when the old Taoist first stepped into this realm, his expression had changed drastically and he was extremely frightened. ”

Speaking of this, Feng Ren deliberately stopped, reached out and took another sip of the teacup. It seems that the rest of the story will be brewed enough before continuing to tell, waiting for Huo Yungan to be in a hurry.

After pinching his fingers and counting, the old man spurted out a mouthful of blood and fainted to the ground randomly. When he woke up, he ignored everyone's inquiries and stayed alone in the house for a day and a night. When the old man walked out of the house, his face was extremely pale, and he seemed to be dozens of years old in an instant. In his hands, it is a work of exquisite painting, which is the design manuscript of the bronze statue we see now. ”

Huo Yun knocked on the table, thought carefully, and then asked, "You mean, the purpose of this bronze statue is to suppress evil spirits?"

Feng Ren nodded and said, "Yes, that's right." At the beginning, there were still many people who questioned the old way of being mysterious, but the few people led by the group overruled the public opinion, asked the workers to stop all the construction work, and then went all out to forge the bronze statue, without sloppiness at all. Coincidentally, a month later, the bronze statue was completed, and it was put at the designated location of the old road, and then there were no accidents after the construction began. ”

"That's it?" Huo Yun was a little disappointed, and secretly scolded Feng Ren in his heart for being mysterious.

Feng Ren smiled: "Of course not, there are some relevant records later." It is said that the old Taoist waited for the bronze statue to be completed and left without saying a word, and died three months later. In a letter he left to his apprentice, which was later made public, Lao Tao explained the cause and effect. It turns out that about a hundred years ago, there was a group of demons who revolted and wreaked havoc everywhere they went, slaughtering everything they went, and no one could cure it. Then, it is said that a divine dragon descended from the sky, slew the demons led by it, and then sealed all the remaining demons under the ground. Over the course of a hundred years, many of the sealed demons' violent aura seeped irrepressibly from under the ground, causing it to become a murderous place. The bronze itself is a thing to ward off evil spirits, and with this bronze statue that restores the scene of the year, those violent breaths are also afraid, and they are pressed back, so everything is peaceful. ”

"Hearsay, not to be believed. Huo Yun was very disappointed, but he didn't expect it to be such a legend in the end. In his opinion, how could there be demons in the world, and the monsters were almost the same. What's more, the ancient divine dragon, which has been extinct for more than a thousand years, fell from the sky, which is even more nonsense.

Who knows, the waitress who happened to come in to serve the food heard the conversation between the two behind her, and suddenly said, "No, that's not a legend, but a real thing." ”

However, the hostess soon realized her identity, and it was inconvenient to continue talking with the customer, so she quickly stopped talking and was about to leave the room, but was stopped by Huo Yun.

"Tell me what I want to know, it's all yours. ”

Huo Yun stopped the five fingers of the waitress's palm, and held a stack of gold coins in his palm.

The hostess hurriedly pushed Huo Yun's hand back and said, "This guest, our hospitality here is not allowed to collect tips without permission. If you really want to know, I can tell you about it right now for free. In fact, those of us who live in Dragon City know that story. ”

Huo Yun suddenly realized that he had been knocked by Feng Ren, but he still pretended to be casual and beckoned the hostess to continue.

"The guest just now should have said that it was almost the same, so I added it. After that old letter was made public, according to the records of the destroyed country where the dragon city was originally located, it was indeed nearly a hundred years ago that there was a very bloody massacre in this area, and it became a nightmare for everyone for a while. However, just as the information about the accident was about to spread, bursts of golden light fell from the sky, completely enveloping the area. Three days later, the golden light dissipated and calm returned to the region. However, out of fear, no one wants to set foot here, let alone build a city. It was not until later that the North Court opened up its territory and expanded its territory, and it was reopened here. As for whether there is really a divine dragon descending to slay demons and eliminate demons, it is unknown. ”

When the hostess had finished speaking, she bowed and withdrew.

"Do you believe it now?" Feng Ren looked at Huo Yun with a smile.

Huo Yun snorted: "It's still nonsense. Forget it, don't mention it. Let's eat. Really, you just beat me up like that. ”

Feng Ren smiled helplessly. For some reason, since he stepped into Dragon City, he had a faint feeling that there was indeed something calling him underground, and that feeling came and went, and it was very faint. If you don't sink your heart and investigate carefully, you can't feel it at all.

Perhaps, it's me who thinks too much about myself, and Feng Ren secretly laughs at himself.

When he saw this information in the Cangyu Sect, he felt that it was not a legend, but that it had happened again. So, after walking here, he has been wondering if the so-called divine dragon that fell from the sky has some connection with the dragon soul line he came from. Perhaps this is why some illusions have arisen.

And at this moment, Feng Ren and Huo Yun felt that the entire restaurant was trembling slightly. And from the window, the roar of wild beasts could be heard from time to time. Listening to that momentum, I'm afraid there are at least 10,000 or more!
