Chapter One Hundred and Three: The Secret of the Black Stone

The dwarf king of the cave seemed to be very embarrassed, and said hesitantly: "God, this is not it, the 'red-rooted cork' is useful, it is useful that we ate it late, not us, it should be said, it is the people of the cave dwarves who have died who eat it late." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Yao Chongzhong said: "Great King, what do you mean by 'those dead cave dwarf people ate late'?"

The Great King of the Cave Dwarves said, "God, I mean, those cave dwarven people who have had an accident did not eat the 'Red Root Cork' before going to the black earth, and when they were invaded by the black mist, it was too late to eat again. ”

If you don't think about it, there is still some truth in what the cave dwarf king said, but as long as you think about it a little, its words can be described as full of loopholes.

Let's put aside the question of whether the suffering cave dwarves walked into the black soil and ate the "red-rooted cork", if one or two cave dwarves walked into the black earth and were plagued by the black fog, it is good to say, it can only mean that they were not careful.

The question is, for thousands of years, hundreds of cave dwarves have suffered, and they can't talk about it, why do they go into it when they know that the black earth is a dead end?

There are two possibilities, unless the cave dwarves have to go in for some reason, or are forced to go in.

If this is the case in both cases, what is the reason why cave dwarves have to risk their lives to go into the black earth?

Or maybe the Demon King forced them into the black land, why did it do this a thousand years ago?

Yao Chongzhong originally wanted to ask the cave dwarf king directly, but he didn't do so, because he thought of the third situation, those dead cave dwarves may not have died in the black earth, but in other places.

It can be seen that the dwarf king of the cave must be hiding some secret, unlike letting Yao Chongzhong know about them, so if they ask directly, they can't ask it, and they have to think of other ways.

Yao Chongzhong smiled slightly, picked up the "red root cork" and put it in his mouth, chewed it gently, his mouth was full of fragrance, he exclaimed: "King, it is really a good thing, the taste and aroma are unique, compared to those immortal fruits in the sky, it is not bad, I have not seen it with my own eyes, I can't believe that these delicacies are actually dug out of the black stone, it is really amazing." ”

The Great King of the Cave Dwarf smiled, but his smile was unnatural, and he said, "The gods have praised us, how can we earth-born things be compared with the immortal fruits and delicacies in the sky, there is a difference of 108,000 thousand miles. ”

After a pause, it continued: "But these 'red-rooted corks' are indeed dug by the people from the black stones, and the gods have asked about this palace before, but in fact, this palace is left by the people after digging the 'red-rooted cork', and it is the largest stone cave in the kingdom, so we will use it as the palace. There are no less than 100 black stones in the Black Stone Forest, and only the black stone in the palace can emit a fragrance, and I don't know the specific reason, probably because it has reached a certain age. ”

Yao Chong looked around and said, "King, if my guess is correct, these black stones have grown from small to large. The black stone where the kingdom is located must have taken tens of thousands of years to grow into such a big one. ”

The Great King of the Cave Dwarves said: "The gods are right, I heard the older generation say that since our cave dwarves appeared in the Black Stone Forest, this black stone has been growing here, and our cave dwarves have appeared in the Black Stone Forest for thousands of years now. ”

Yao Chongzhong said: "In this way, it took more than 10,000 years for this black stone to grow into such a big one, and it is no wonder that in order to exude a clear fragrance, it must be the fragrance of 'red root cork' that has been immersed in the black stone." ”

Since arriving in the Cave Dwarf Kingdom, everything Yao Chongzhong said was related to the Black Stone Forest and the "Red Root Cork", and the matter of the Four Kingdoms Alliance was not mentioned, which was the main purpose of their coming to the Cave Dwarf Kingdom.

Jiang Xiaoyu secretly pondered, the Black Stone Forest and the "Red Root Cork" were indeed very rare, but the cave spirit "Spark" and the ice crystals of the Earth Sandworm Kingdom were all very unique things, and Yao Chongzhong had also seen them, but he had never seen him so curious.

Yao Chongzhong must not have delayed the big event just because of curiosity, the reason why he kept talking about the Black Stone Forest was that there might be some secrets in the Black Stone Forest.

After thinking about it for a while, Jiang Xiaoyu said: "King, these black stone forests in your kingdom are very interesting, it is the first time I have seen a stone that can grow; ”

The meaning of his words was understood by the cave dwarf king as soon as he heard it, and he said: "God, that's not easy, you can go to see it at any time, it doesn't matter how long you want to see it. ”

When the goal was achieved, Jiang Xiaoyu immediately got out of his seat and said, "Thank you, King, then I won't accompany you, I'll go see those mysterious black stone forests now." ”

Yao Chongzhong's face was silent, but his heart was open, so after Jiang Xiaoyu left his seat, he also left his seat and said: "King, I also have this intention, when I come to the underground realm, I should take a good look at the landforms and customs of various countries, and I will not have regrets when I go back." ”

The dwarf king of the cave said: "Since the two gods are interested, I will take you around to see the scene of the black stone forest; ”

Jiang Xiaoyu wants to go to see the Black Stone Forest, the Sand Worm King and a few others can understand it, he is young and curious, Yao Chongzhong is also interested in the Black Stone, a little incomprehensible, because the purpose of their coming here is not to come to see the Black Stone Forest, but to do big things.

The King of the Golden Armor Humpback Worm couldn't wait to tell him about the Four Kingdoms Alliance at the beginning of his entry into the palace, but he couldn't interject and tried to hold back from interjecting.

At this point, it really couldn't hold back, and said: "God, let's discuss the matter of the Four Kingdoms Alliance first, and when we finish discussing this important matter, it will not be too late to go to see the Black Stone Forest." ”

Yao Chongzhong said with a smile: "King, we don't delay talking about big things when we go to see the Black Stone Forest, we can talk while watching, and when we finish watching the Black Stone Forest, the affairs of the alliance are almost over." ”

Although the Sand Worm King didn't know the true purpose of Yao Chongzhong and Jiang Xiaoyu going to see the Black Stone Forest, since listening to the conversation between them, there were ripples in their hearts, and they faintly felt that the Black Stone Forest and the Black Earth had a lot in common, and they might have discovered something.

The opportunity should not be missed, so the king of the sandworm said to the king of the golden armor humpback beetle: "King, what the gods said is right, the affairs of the alliance of the four kingdoms can be discussed in the palace, and they can also be discussed in the black stone forest. ”

Everyone wants to go, and the king of the golden armor hunchback worm can't object anymore, so he has to say: "The king's is right, and the idea of the gods is good, I just think that the alliance of the four kingdoms is related to the safety of the people of the four kingdoms, we should be cautious, or it is safer in the palace." ”

Yao Chongzhong said: "Great King, you are too worried, whether it is in the palace or in the Black Stone Forest, they are all the people of the four kingdoms, we don't need to worry, what we talk about will not be overheard by the Trapped Demon King or the Magic King." ”

The King of the Golden Armor Humpback Worm said anxiously: "God, the false king of our kingdom, the black elf of the cave elf kingdom, have you forgotten these things? In my opinion, let's not talk about the Four Kingdoms Alliance in the Black Stone Forest. ”

Yao Chongzhong said: "King, I understand all your worries, I will forget those things there, every experience in the past almost cost us our lives, but the situation here is different, we have all seen with our own eyes, the two demons are injured, maybe they are hiding somewhere to recuperate, they will not come here, besides, the Trapped Demon King has never been to the cave dwarf kingdom at all." ”

When he said this, he added a sentence to the cave dwarf king, and said, "King, what I'm saying is right, you don't even know the Demon King of the Trapped Earth, how can he come here." ”

The dwarf king's expression was extremely unnatural, and he said in a hesitant manner: "This, God, what the hunchback insect king said is also reasonable, the Demon King of the Trapping Land is likely to be hiding somewhere in the Black Stone Forest, but we don't know; in the end, this is because we are not well prepared; I think it is better for us to talk about it in the palace, and when the discussion is over, I will go to the Black Stone Forest with everyone to have a look." ”

The Great King of the Cave Dwarf slipped out of his mouth unnaturally, and from its expression and tone, it could be seen that it had lied before, and it must have known about the monster of the Trap Demon King.

The reason why it refuses to tell the truth is that there are only two situations, one is that he is coerced by the Trapped Demon King, and the other is that he has some kind of relationship with the Trapped Demon King, which kind of relationship is it?

Yao Chongzhong thought of a tentative solution, and he said to the cave dwarf: "King, we don't have to worry, the Trapped Demon King is actually dead. ”

"How did it die?" the dwarf king of the cave blurted out this as he shook his heart, but he quickly realized that he had lost his temper and regained his composure.

Yao Chongzhong saw the expression of the cave dwarf and understood the reason why it didn't tell the truth, it must have some kind of relationship with the Trapped Demon King, so he said, "The king seems to be surprised, did he remember something?"

The lie was leaked, and the cave dwarf kingdom patted his head vigorously and said: "Yes, yes, God, I remember, the demon king you are talking about must be the demon king in the 'burning river', you look at my memory, I can't remember it for a while." ”

Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the dwarven king of the cave was saying something insincere.

Yao Chongzhong said: "The king, the one in the 'Burning River' is called the Magic King, also known as the Black-Hearted King, this one we are talking about now is the Demon King of the Trap, it is the subordinate of the Magic King, maybe it will be the master of the underground world in the future, alas, at that time." ”

Yao Chongzhong said that he deliberately didn't say it here, but just shook his head, he did it for a purpose, and deliberately let others pick up the conversation.
