Chapter One Hundred and Two: First Entry into the Cave Dwarven Kingdom
The cave dwarf kingdom is not far from the edge of the black earth, in a black stone forest, there are many stones of different sizes in the black stone forest, the height is more than ten zhang high, and the short one is less than a foot. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The King of the Golden Armor and the Hunchback took Yao Chongzhong into the stone forest, and after bypassing a few black stones, they saw a cave dwarf beating something on a black stone several feet high.
The King of the Golden Armor Humpback Worm shouted a few times at the cave dwarf on the black stone, and the cave dwarf heard the shout, turned his head and looked back, turned around and jumped down, falling straight to the ground.
Jiang Xiaoyu was frightened, the cave dwarves jumped down like this, it would be bad if they were broken, these cave dwarves looked like they were all impatient, and before he could finish thinking about it, the cave dwarves had already pulled out their legs and came to everyone.
Jiang Xiaoyu and Black Loach were very shocked in their hearts, fortunately they saw a lot of monsters or creatures with abnormal appearances, although they had heard of it before, but it was just a vague impression, but now they are facing real things, if it is the first time they see it, they will definitely turn around and run away in fright.
The cave elf is indeed strange-looking, less than five feet tall, but with a large head, more than a foot long, with a face as rough as a stone, with a pair of withered grass eyes, a mullet mouth, and a pair of cauliflower ears.
They are not slow three feet, but they have three arms, two of which are on either side of the body, one on the belly, and the two arms that are on the side of the body have no palms, one is like a hammer, the other is like an iron hammer, and the arm that grows on the belly has a palm, but only three fingers.
The black loach whispered to Yao Chongzhong: "Little fish, this cave dwarf can also be called a person, I think it looks like a monster, and it looks uglier than me." ”
Although the black loach said it quietly, it was still heard by Yao Chongzhong, Yao Chongzhong didn't say anything, walked to his side, pulled his ear, it stuck out its tongue, knowing that it didn't control its mouth again, and talked nonsense.
Everyone waited in the black stone forest for a while, and the cave dwarf who went to report the news brought a team of cave dwarves, led by an old man about eighty or ninety years old, with the same hands and feet as ordinary people, and the others all had three hands.
Not only Jiang Xiaoyu and Black Loach were very surprised, but Yao Chongzhong was the same, this old man was like a mortal in the Earth Realm, how did he come back to the Cave Dwarf Kingdom?
After being introduced by the King of the Golden Armor Humpback Worm, Yao Chongzhong and Jiang Xiaoyu knew that this was not an ordinary old man but the king of the Cave Kingdom.
The cave dwarf monarchs are too unbelievable, and there are some differences between the kings of the other three kingdoms and the people, but they are slightly different in shape, and the gap between them is too big, and it can't help but make people wonder if this cave dwarf king came here from the gods in the sky to be a king, because ordinary mortals can't come.
Jiang Xiaoyu wanted to ask Yao Chongzhong about this question, but he was afraid that he shouldn't ask, so when the words came to his lips, he didn't ask in the end.
The King of the Golden Armor Humpback Worm briefly told the dwarf king of the cave their intentions, and introduced Yao Chongzhong to him, and heard that it was a god from the sky, and the king of the cave dwarf was very happy and saluted them one by one.
After meeting with the cave dwarves, he took everyone to the palace hall, where the palace hall of the cave dwarves was built in a large black stone.
Jiang Xiaoyu came to the door of the palace hall, and suddenly smelled a faint fragrance, this fragrance was very familiar, like the pine trees behind the three fishing villages.
Could it be that there are pine trees in the cave dwarf kingdom? After entering the black stone forest, I didn't see any trees along the way, or maybe these pine trees were in the palace?
When I arrived in the palace, the fragrance was even stronger, Jiang Xiaoyu was very puzzled, there were no pine trees in the palace, and there were no other trees, the most were stone tables and chairs, which was strange, the palaces of several other kingdoms were full of stone smells, how did the taste change when they got here?
Jiang Xiaoyu deliberately approached those black stones, smelled the smell on them, a strong fragrance, the fragrance he smelled was really from these black stones, he was even more strange, there were so many black stones outside the palace, why didn't they smell the fragrance?
Jiang Xiaoyu not only had a strong interest in this palace, he twisted his neck and looked around, trying to find the secret of the black stone's fragrance, and after looking around, he didn't see why.
The dwarf king of the cave smiled and said, "God, what are you looking for? Tell me, I will ask the guards to help you find it." ”
Jiang Xiaoyu was about to find someone to ask, and when he heard the dwarf king of the cave ask, he was in harmony with his heart, so he said: "King, I was abrupt just now, I wasn't looking for anything else, but I felt curious, it was also a black stone, why the black stone in the palace had a clear fragrance, but the black stone outside the palace did not." ”
The dwarf king of the cave laughed and said, "God, when the three kings came to our kingdom before, they also asked the same, they are also strange, I will stop talking for the time being, and wait for the guards to bring things before continuing." ”
The dwarven guards of the cave brought a black stone plate for each person, and there were some dark red things like wooden roots on them, Jiang Xiaoyu saw these dark red things, and thought of the "sparks" of the elven kingdom, all of which were the same red, but the colors were different, and his mind moved, could it be that these things were "spark" roots?
The aroma of the dark red wood root is even more long and pleasant, Jiang Xiaoyu remembered something, when he was in the sand worm kingdom, the sand worm king once said that this kind of thing is called "red root cork", and "red root cork" is grown from black stones.
The dwarf king of the cave said, "God, these red things, called 'red-rooted cork', are taken out of the black stones, and we rely on them to eat, and eating them can make us light and healthy, not afraid of the cold, not afraid of the black mist. When you come to our kingdom, you must have crossed the black land, and please eat them to clear the miasma in your body. ”
The miasma in the body?The miasma in the body?Yao Chongzhong secretly thought, did the black fog that the cave dwarf king said refer to the black mist released by the King of the Trapping Earth? Then the miasma in the body should refer to what the black mist turned into after entering the body, because the black mist he saw was only wrapped around the bones of the corpse and did not enter their bodies, so he was not sure if the black fog they were talking about was the same kind.
It's better to ask, Yao Chongzhong then asked, "King, is the black mist you mentioned released by the Trapped Demon King?"
"Trap Demon King?" the cave dwarf king thought for a moment and said, "God, I haven't heard of this name, the black fog I am talking about is not released by it, but from the black earth, and the black earth has been emitting black fog for many years. ”
Yao Chongzhong was very surprised, because he heard the cave dwarf king say that he had never heard of the Trap Demon King at all, which was unlikely, it might be telling lies, and it seemed that it was also good at telling lies.
The King of the Trap once said in the black land that it met the Magic King thousands of years ago, and before it was encountered, it itself grew in the black soil, and the black land in the cave dwarf kingdom was not far away, and they should know something about each other, how could they not know each other at all?
Yao Chongzhong was a little puzzled, why did the cave dwarf king tell a lie? Those black mist were obviously released by the Trapping Demon King, this is a fact he saw with his own eyes, how could it be released by the black earth? Could it be that the cave dwarf king saw the appearance of the black dust raised by the wind as black mist?
Yao Chongzhong continued: "King, is the black fog you are talking about, is it the kind of black fog that can fly sand and rocks?"
The cave dwarf king shook his head and said, "No, it's not like that, the black fog I said came from the land, not from the air, and there is a big difference between the two, I can't be mistaken." ”
This is strange, could it be that he and the cave dwarf king are talking about two different kinds of black fog? Yao Chong carefully recalled what he had seen and heard in the black earth, and felt that what the two of them were talking about should not be two kinds of black fog, but should be one.
Yao Chong recalled a detail, after the two demons were burned by the flames, they hid in the black earth, and he thought of another possibility, those black fogs were released by the Trapped Demon King hiding in the black earth.
What is the purpose of the Trap Demon King hiding on the black soil to release the black fog? The cave dwarf king said that the black earth has been releasing black fog for thousands of years, which has created a question, to say that in the past thousand years, the Trap Demon King has colluded with the magic king and hid in the black earth to release the black fog in order to endanger the people of the four kingdoms.
Yao Chongzhong said: "King, are you saying that as long as you encounter the black mist, miasma will grow in your body, what if miasma grows in your body?"
Listening to Yao Chongzhong's question, the Great King of the Cave Dwarf looked sad and said: "God, you don't know, those black qi are quite powerful, as long as they invade the body and are not cleared in time, it won't be too long, the black qi will swallow up the whole body, leaving only a white bone." ”
The words of the cave dwarf shocked Yao Chongzhong and the others, and they were surprised, they didn't expect the black mist to be so powerful, no wonder the black mist would be entangled in those bones.
The Great King of the Cave Dwarves continued: "Gods, great kings, the people of the Cave Dwarf Kingdom can be said to have suffered a lot, as long as the cave dwarves who go to the black land, nine times out of ten they will be harmed by the black mist, and in the end, they will not even be able to find their bones. ”
Yao Chongzhong said: "Great King, I take the liberty of asking, how many cave dwarves have suffered, and where have the bones of those suffering dwarves gone?"
The cave dwarf king sighed and said, "For thousands of years, hundreds of people have been victimized, and all the bones have been dragged into the black earth by the black mist, and we are afraid of being harmed by the black mist, so we dare not go to find them. ”
Yao Chongzhong said in surprise: "King, for thousands of years, don't you have 'red root cork'? how can you still be poisoned by the black mist, I don't understand, are these 'red root cork' useless?"
