Chapter 0330: Once Upon a Time in Fire Witch Mountain: Blood Dragon Dance

Will looked at Tyrion and said something that was completely incomprehensible to Zira Shaga Timei and the others: "The prince of the royal family of Bitford, can he do magic or prophesy? If he can prophesy, you should be able to foresee that Duke Lanli will not be able to win against Stannis I, just like your father, Lord Tywin Lannister, who failed to sneak attack and was burned to the ground." ”

"The people of the royal family of Bitford may be able to do magic or prophesy, but half-humans are obviously not. ”

Will smiled slightly: "Lady Leaf stayed in the Bright Moon Mountain Range, is it a half-human idea?"

Tyrion shrugged his shoulders: "It doesn't matter, Lady Leaf doesn't like to live alone, she likes crowded places, the tribesmen of the Bright Moon Mountains like her, it's better for her to stay in the Bright Moon Mountains." ”

"You're afraid of a war on Dragonstone, in case it will affect Lady Leaves. ”

Tyrion smiled: "Lord Will, you and the leaders of Ziratimi Shaga and the others are meeting for the first time, let's have a drink in the evening, come here, and start drinking." Tyrion diverted the conversation.

His proposal was unanimously supported by Zirashagati Meiulf and others.

So, as soon as Ulf gave the order, the lunarian warriors set up a fire to barbecue beef, mutton and rabbit meat, and Will and his party brought a lot of wine. The men in the Mingyue Mountains are good wine, and Will brings more good wine to his liking.

The next morning, in the Scorching Tribe of the Bright Moon Mountains, Will met Lady Leaves.

Lady Leaf's long hair was no longer dragged on the ground, and she was only the height of Will's calf, like a dwarf in the dwarven kingdom. Her red eyes were as impressive as her height.

Will thinks that Lady Leaf is the shortest person. Perhaps in the tribe of the Children of the Forest, it is difficult to find anyone shorter than Lady Leaves.

Mrs. Leaves's clothes were also changed, clean and tidy, and the clothes were brightly colored.

The women's clothing of the aborigines of the Mingyue Mountains is mostly gorgeous, and all of them are spun and dyed by the aborigines themselves.

Will crouched down on the ground, let Lady Leaf sit on his arm, and stood up.

"Where are we going?" said Will. He saw that Lady Leaf was going to take him somewhere.

Lady Leaf is quick to move, and even more agile when she gets up the tree, but Will still refuses to let Lady Leaf lead the way.

Lady Leaf is an old-timer, the only inheritor of the Children of the Forest in the Noble Heart, and Will has shown the least respect for himself.

Guided by Lady Leaf, Will walked into the forest and headed for the highest mountain in the distance.

That mountain was called Fire Witch Mountain by the people of the Scorching Tribe.

The sacrifices of the people of the Scorching Department are all towards the Fire Witch Mountain.

Because of a mountain earthquake a few decades ago, the mountain road of Huowu Mountain was cut off, forming a cliff ravine. It is said that the ancestors of the Burning People worship fire, with fire as a god and fire witch as a shaman.

"Lord Will, do you know why the people of the Scorching Division burned a part of themselves during the coming-of-age ceremony?"

"I don't know, Lady Leaves. ”

Although the god of time and space knows everything, it does not mean that Will is also omniscient. The Eye of Time and Space will not see everything unless there is some kind of guidance. It's like a fish in the sea, a fishing net can catch the fish in the sea, but in order to catch a particular fish, you need to know the location of the fish first, which is the guide.

"They made fire their god and worshipped fire witches. ”

"Is there still a fire witch on Fire Witch Mountain?"

Lady Leaves looked at Will with red eyes: "Lord Will, there is naturally a fire witch on Fire Witch Mountain, but do you believe that it is a real fire witch?"

"Dragon Knight?" Will was surprised and delighted.

Lady Leaves sighed: "The comet cries blood, and it will not disperse in the sky for several days, do you see it?"

"Yes, I saw it. ”

"That heralds the end of the long summer, and also the rebirth of the Demon Dragon, which will bring about the revival of magic, and our children of the forest will also regain their magical talents. However, the long summer is over, and the cold winter is not far away. With the Great Wall of Desperation lost, the Aliens will first sweep across Westeros. Dragons, on the other hand, are the most powerful magical creatures that can restrain the ghosts. ”

"Have there always been dragons and dragon knights on Fire Witch Mountain?" Will couldn't believe it. In his eye of time and space, there was no information about the Bright Moon Mountain Range, nor did he have any oracles and divine revelations.

"The dragon and the dragon knight are dead, but there is something worth visiting. ”

"Dragon eggs?"

Mrs. Leaves replied differently: "Lord Will, more than a hundred years ago, the tribe of the Scorching Tribes was not called the Scorching Tribe, they separated from the Painting Dog Section. At that time, one of the leaders of the Painted Dog Department worshipped the dragon and the dragon knight, and the leader swore allegiance to the demon dragon and the dragon knight, and the tribesmen risked their lives every day to sacrifice food for the dragon knight and the dragon. In order to conceal their eyes, they proclaimed that they worshipped the god of fire and the witch of fire. ”

"More than a hundred years ago?" Will's mind flashed, "the era of the Blood Dragon Dance?"

"Yes, in the era of the Dragon Knight Civil War of the Targaryen family, that dragon knight and dragon were forced to hide in the misty mountains of the Bright Moon Mountains in order to escape the pursuit of Princess Rhaenyra. ”

Will looked at the towering Huowu Mountain a hundred miles away, the upper part of which was obscured by clouds.

"Misty Mountain is the current Fire Witch Mountain?"

"Yes. After the Scorching Dog Division separated from the Painted Dog Division, the people of the Painted Dog Division began to relocate, and the leader of the Scorching Dog Division and his people lived in the Misty Mountains. Oath keepers chosen by the leader risk being burned by fire every day in order to offer food to the fire witch and the dragon, and the dragon knights, who call themselves fire witches, often test their loyalty and bravery with fire. ”

This gave rise to the current custom of the Burning Tribe: men have to use fire to burn a part of their body as a sign of bravery. The current chieftain, Time, became the red hand of the Scorching Division because he gouged out his left eye and threw it in the fire. ”

Will suddenly realized, and walked like a fly.

The leader of the Scorching Tribes in the valley below the mountain, Time, is none other than the One-Eyed Dragon.

"Who is the dragon knight who lives in the Misty Mountains?" Will was desperate to know the secrets.

"Princess Rhaenyra's Loyal Dragon Knight: Castor!"

"She's Castor?" Will said in surprise, "I know Castor, she's a missing Black Dragon Knight, and she's only seventeen years old at the time. ”

"Yes, the fire witch on Fire Witch Mountain is the castor who evades the pursuit, she and her dragon have never died, but for more than a hundred years, she and her dragon have also grown old, and I think she has lost the ability to fly. ”

"It is recorded in ancient books that on the island of Yuhai, in the shadow land of Yaxia, the longest-lived dragon lived for a thousand years. Will said.

"You're right, but that's for flying dragons. And for the dragon and dragon knight who have been living on the Misty Mountain, the hundred-year life span has not yet died, but it is already a miracle. Lord Will, a dragon is a dragon, it does not belong to the dragon's lair, nor does it belong to the dragon mountain, it belongs to the sky. When a dragon loses the sky, it's like a fish loses water, and although it is not dead, it is no longer a dragon in the true sense of the word. ”

Will and Lady Leaf were talking at a high speed, and the dragon and dragon knight on the Misty Mountain were still alive, which gave Will endless motivation.

In Aegon 97, Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen was born, the eldest daughter of King Viserys I. Her claim to the Iron Throne was challenged by her half-brother Aegon II, sparking a civil war known as the Dance of the Blood Dragons.

During the Civil War, the dragon knights of House Targaryen were divided into two factions: the one that followed her sister, Princess Rhaenyra, was called the Blacks, and the one who followed her younger brother was called the Greens.

Will knows this history.

The bloody war between the Greens and the Blacks was known as the Dance of the Dragons, in which the dragon knights of House Targaryen killed each other, and many of them died. The civil war eventually led to the massive deaths of dragon knights and dragons, and in the end only four dragons remained. One of them is the dragon of castor beans, a sheep thief, who does not know his whereabouts.

The Sheep Thief is a wild dragon that is not fed by the Targaryens, an unfed wild dragon appeared on the continent of Westeros and is known for stealing sheep to eat, which has caused many people to hunt down sheep thieves.

But without exception, those who went after the sheep thieves were killed by the sheep thieves. At that time, the fifteen-year-old castor was a wild and martial arts girl from a noble family that loved dragons, and she insisted on going to the sheep thief's place every day to give the sheep thief a sheep to eat, and after about a year, the sheep thief finally accepted the girl.

When the Blood Dragon Dance Civil War began, Castor rode the sheep thief to Princess Rhaenyra and became the only dragon knight in the Targaryen family without Targaryen blood.

Princess Rhaenyra's father was very fond of Rhaenyra, and Rhaenyra was so loved by the people that she was called "the light of the kingdom". She has been riding a female dragon named Syracuse since she was seven years old.

Rhaenyra has been spoiled by her parents since she was a child, as she is the only surviving child of the two. As a child, she showed the inhuman beauty of the Targaryens, she was brilliant and brave, and her martial arts were praised, and she was praised by singers as the "light of the kingdom".

Viserys made her the "Princess of Dragonstone", cultivated her as a crown prince, made her his sommelier, and sat her under the Iron Throne to sit at the court and participate in the Imperial Council. That same year, her father ordered the princes of the country to swear allegiance to Rhaenyra and defend her rights.

In Aegon 105 A.D., her second brother Byron died shortly after birth, and her mother died in childbirth. The king later married his second wife, Queen Alison Hightower.

The queen gave birth to three healthy boys and a daughter for the king in a short period of time, and the seeds of the Dance of the Blood Dragons were planted. Rhaenyra Ben had a good relationship with Queen Hightower, but after the birth of her children, the two became more and more open. At the King's Landing tournament in Aegon 111, the princess wore a black and red costume to a banquet, stealing the limelight from the queen, who was wearing a long turquoise dress at the time, and the two factions became known as the "Black Party" and the "Green Party" respectively.

When King Viserys I died, the captain of the Kingsguard, Sir Christon Cole, disobeyed the king's wishes and joined the Greens to crown his half-brother Prince Aegon, who was ten years younger than her, as Aegon II. Thus, an extremely bloody civil war broke out.

During the war, the dragon knights killed each other. A string of bad news causes Rhaenyra to give birth prematurely, giving birth to a stillborn freak daughter, Visenya. Before Rhaenyra could fully recover, she gathered her supporters and discussed how to deal with Aegon.

In Aegon 129, Rhaenyra was crowned king on Dragonstone and then went to war against her brother. Thanks to clever tactics and the numerical superiority of the Dragon Knights, the Black Communists emerged victorious early in the war and captured King's Landing, with Rhaenyra ascending to the Iron Throne. The cost of victory was heavy, as her two eldest sons were killed and her youngest son taken into captivity.

Rhaenyra entered King's Landing and executed many people and raised her taxes, making her unpopular. To add insult to injury, the two Black bastards Dragon Knights rebelled during the Battle of Tengshi Town, causing the southern army against Rhaenyra to invade the capital.

The rebellion in Tengshi also caused her to completely lose trust in the bastard dragon knights, and she ordered the arrest of the other two dragon knights and ordered the hunt to hunt down the castor dragon knights. - Because there are rumors that Castor is in love with her husband, Prince Daimon, but this rumor is likely a smoke bomb deliberately set off by the Greens.

What the truth is, no one knows.

The move cost the queen four dragon knights, and her husband Daemon and two illegitimate children were found and killed by Aegon's dragon knights. Before the encounter, Prince Daemon and Castor, he told Castor the truth about Princess Rhaenyra's order to kill her, and he told Castor to run away on the sheep thief and never return to the Queen's side.

The arrest also led to Prince Damon's family, the Valerian family, losing the Queen's support and the loss of the town of Fountain and the Muton family.

Eventually, rumors that the beloved Queen Aegon II, Helena Targaryen, had been murdered by Rhaenyra's orders sparked the anger of the people of King's Landing, and a riot ensued. A mob stormed the dragon's lair at the instigation of a lunatic who claimed to be a prophet, killing five dragons, including the Queen's mount, Syracles. This is the famous Dragon's Lair Riot, and it is also the root cause of the barren bronze gate of the Dragon's Lair on the top of the Rhaenys Hill to be closed for a hundred years.

Four hours later, when it was getting late, Will and Mrs. Leaf came to the cliff opposite the Fire Witch Mountain, below which was a thousand zhang cliff, and the ravine was bottomless, and Will and Mrs. Leaf could only go up the mountain again if they crossed the cliff.

"Bring me down, Lord Will, it's time for me to help you get over the cliff. ”

Although the cliffs are steep, the slopes on both sides are covered with large trees.

There are trees, and for the Prophet Lady Leaf of the Children of the Forest, it is the road to the road.

"Follow me!" said Lady Leaf. She jumped off the cliff and landed lightly on the towering trees. She was at ease, her long hair flowing out, and that long hair was more like one of her hands.

Will felt that Lady Leaf walked through the tree as if the bird had returned to its nest and the fish had returned to the water.

"Lord Will, if you are afraid, close your eyes, I can catch you. Lady Leaf shouted.

Will said, "All right, ma'am. ”

He believed Lady Leaf's words, even though she was the shortest person Will had ever met.

Still, Will decided to find a topic to distract himself and jump off a cliff, with some instinctive slight uneasiness in his heart.

"Lady Leaves, are Castor and Prince Damon really in love or is it a rumor? Is Castor the lover of Prince Damon? Castor at that time, seventeen years old, was a beauty like a flower. As he spoke, Will closed his eyes and jumped down.
