Chapter 149: The Forgotten Dragon
The Queen is accompanied by a giant dragon and soars in the aurora. It's an extremely rare experience, with the daring crew lying on the side of the ship, looking down.
It's very high, maybe tens of thousands of meters above the ground. Even airplanes, rarely fly so high. From this height, the horizon is rounded, and to the south, there is a vast snowfield. A huge mountain range towers over it. Some people recognized that it was the Kolyma Mountains, and beyond there, it was the Pacific Ocean. If you are far from your homeland, you will no longer be far away.
Oddly enough, at such a height, the stratosphere may have been reached. But everyone did not feel cold or lack of oxygen. Instead, I felt a compassionate warmth.
Thinking of such a comfortable environment must have a lot to do with the dragon next to the Queen.
The dragon was so big and long that even though the Queen had already flown with him to tens of thousands of feet in the air, his tail had just come out of the frozen lake below.
It was a dragon tens of thousands of meters long, his body was dark gray, and his scales had a metallic sheen, shining in the starry sky. Such a huge divine beast usually makes humans tremble with fear. However, the crew felt that he was very kind, and did not think that the dragon would hurt them at all.
Perhaps, this is the descendant of the dragon.
The whole ship was silent, even the guys who usually talk nonsense a lot and like to complain, they were quiet at this time, and they didn't dare to offend this majestic divine beast. Only the penguins don't look very impressive, after all, they are not Chinese, and they don't have dragon blood in their blood.
"What a big dragon. Fu Hu sighed, "Why have I been in the Northdalymlya for so long, I have never seen or heard of it. ”
Sun Xiang on the side smiled.
"You've seen him, you've flown like this, but you've forgotten it. ”
"Huh?" Fu Hu looked confused.
Since the penguins have mastered this secret passage, they must have seen dragons many times. It's just that because of the secret realm, when they leave, they will completely lose the memories of this period, including those primeval creatures in the ice.
In their memory, it was just an ordinary fairway. If nothing else, when the Queen lands at the end of this flight, all the members of the ship, including Sun Xiang himself, will lose this memory.
This made Sun Xiang a little reluctant, but at least at this moment, he should explain it to everyone.
This giant dragon is called the Candle Dragon, and it is the divine dragon of the Aurora. Legend has it that he has a snake face and a red body, and he is the patron saint of the Nine Shadows. He shines in the darkness of the candle in the northwest without sun, and when the candle dragon opens his eyes, it is day, and when he closes his eyes, it is night.
The candle dragon is very famous, in fact, Sun Xiang doesn't explain, there are many crew members with a little knowledge, who have already thought of the identity of the dragon through the aurora.
However, there are still many doubtful parts, and the eldest disciple Xunyan asked in a low voice: "But Master, how is the candle dragon different from the legendary one." ”
Yes, it's obviously a very majestic and beautiful dragon, and it's not as curious as the "human-faced snake body" described in the legend. Besides, the candle dragon is a dark gray of metal, not crimson.
Sun Xiang pouted: "So this is the gap between legend and reality." ”
In fact, there are many legends about candle dragons, but most of them are unreliable. In the last era, the Overhaul had traveled several times into the Far North to try to make contact with the Candle Dragon. There is also a saint among them. But it all ended in failure. It seems that the rules of the Heavenly Dao represented by the Candle Dragon Secret Realm are not simple.
The master and apprentice discussed this, and the other crew members pricked up their ears to listen. But at this time, a huge and majestic consciousness enveloped the Queen, and everyone's hearts resounded with a majestic and pleasant laughter.
"Human-faced snake body, hahahaha! Are the humans outside imagining me like this now?"
Everyone was amazed and turned their heads to look back. It turned out that at some point, the candle dragon leaned its huge dragon head against the Queen's side.
Ji Yuanxuan was so frightened that he took a step back, accidentally tripped over something, and almost fell off the railing. One of the dragon's whiskers curled her up and landed firmly back on deck.
It turned out that the candle dragon had already noticed the queen who was riding the tailwind, but the candle dragon was old and serious, and he only laughed when he heard the outrageous evaluation of himself by outsiders.
"Lord Crab Crab Candle Dragon. ”
It doesn't seem like it's hard to get along with.
"Lord Ryujin. Relatively speaking, Sun Xiang's attitude was a little restrained, and he hugged his fists, "We just strayed into your territory, hoping to leave safely." ”
"Don't worry, the penguins over there, how many times they've been back and forth, I remember. The candle dragon's face was expressionless, but the voice ringing in his head was tolerant and pleasant.
It's like the unique attitude of the elders towards the younger ones.
"Although I am here in Longtan, it is not a tiger's den, and I will not refuse anyone's kind visit. When I finish surveying the far northern skies, you can follow me to a safe place. ”
The promise of the candle dragon made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, and they were all worried about how to go down.
Sun Xiang was silent, but Candle Dragon was unwilling to let go of the topic. In fact, the dragon god would not speak easily, and it was Sun Xiang who aroused his interest.
"Little friend, can you answer one of my doubts?" the dragon god's voice appeared alone in Sun Xiang's mind.
"Your Excellency, please speak up. ”
The dragon god paused for a moment, his gaze penetrating the time, and he asked, "You have the breath of the previous era on your body. Can you tell me why? You're already in my memory, why, are you in this world?"
Sun Xiang thought for a moment, he felt that the candle dragon was not malicious, so he honestly told the master how to deceive the heavens with the method of expanding the heavens.
The candle dragon closed its eyes.
"Hmm... There is such a way. I just think you're different from those guys before, it's really not easy. I believe you will succeed this time. ”
"Those guys from before, do you mean the other cultivators in the ice?" asked Sun Xiang.
"Cultivators, that's right, they do call themselves that. ”
"Lord Candle Dragon, can you answer the doubts in my heart?"
"Little friend, please speak, as long as I can tell you. ”
Sun Xiang Zhengse asked: "What is your duty, why do I see the life of the earth in the ice, are you the embodiment of history?"
This is also a problem that Sun Xiang has been considering all the way, all the extinct life forms recorded in the ice of the candle dragon, so the rules of the Heavenly Dao he represents are likely to be related to records and history.
He wanted an answer, even if it would be forgotten once he left the secret realm.
The candle dragon's head left the Queen, and he swam his body, accelerating further, and carrying the Queen through the aurora. Sun Xiang was disappointed, and just when he thought that the candle dragon had rejected the question, the candle dragon's voice sounded in his head again.
"My name is Candle Nine Yin, the forgotten memory of the Lord.
Mankind says that when a dynasty falls, it will end up unheard. But you humans are wrong.
All the prosperity of the past will not completely disappear in time. When they are completely forgotten by this world, they can earn a place with me.
I am the forgotten dragon, representing the mercy of time. ”
