prince and dragon

The Afterglow Mountains are like a long barrier, blocking the connection between the Sunset Forest and the plain to the west, and also eliminating the threat of the beasts in the Sunset Forest from invading the plain.But it's a much more dangerous thing in itself.

People who live on the plains always warn their children not to go to Sunset Mountain, it is a place that eats people without spitting out their bones, and no one who goes in will come out alive.

If Yilu, who was following the black dragon and heading down the mountain, heard these words, he might agree.They descended from the snow peak all the way, and the originally uneventful journey gradually became full of difficulties and obstacles.It was okay when it was near the snow line. There were no traces of creatures in the white snow, and on the mossy ground with sparse vegetation on the other side, the surrounding situation was unobstructed. However, when passing these places and walking into the area covered by trees, the smooth The road was thus abruptly blocked.

First there is a giant bear, yes, it is a very common giant bear in the sunset forest, but the one they encountered when they passed the arbor forest was much bigger than the one in the sunset forest. I don’t know if it is the honey made by the giant bees here Especially because of the relationship between nutrition, the size of the bear is almost twice the size of the one in the sunset forest.In front of him, Yiru and the humanoid black dragon were as small as two standing geckos.

The black dragon immediately protected Yilu behind him. It is the nature of dragons to protect property. Besides, it reminded him of the scene where little Yilu almost died under the paw of a giant bear. The fear and anger of almost losing his property were filled instantly The heart of the black dragon.

At this moment, the black dragon changed from human form back to dragon form almost immediately.The shadow of the tall black dragon covered Yilu's surroundings in an instant. Compared with the giant bear in the afterglow forest, the black dragon's body was like a child. Yiru was a little worried, and several attack spells flashed in his mind. , if the black dragon is injured, he will shoot immediately.

Just at the moment of Yilu's preparation, the giant bear was burned to ashes by the purple flame.As soon as the wind blows on the top of the mountain, the ash floats up and disperses in the soil of the arbor forest, as clean as if the giant bear had never been here.

White smoke spewed out from the nostrils of the black dragon, as if letting out a fierce breath, raised its proud head, and continued to lead Yilu forward, just in case, the black dragon did not turn into a human form again.

Facts have proved that the black dragon is still very far-sighted. During the next journey, they encountered four or five obstacles, such as a man-eating devil flower, a giant spider and its entangled spider silk, and several wolves, etc. , but without exception, they were all burned to ashes by the black dragon's purple breath.

Although there was no danger, there was still a shock. Yilu's left arm was grabbed by a wolf, leaving three deep wounds, and one person and one dragon stopped in the bushes.Looking at the dark sky, Yilu endured the pain and thought that there would be no villages with people before dark, and he would not be able to get any clues to the Valley of Sighs today, and it would be a long way to help the black dragon find the treasure.

The sound of cloth strips being torn brought Yiru back to consciousness. The tall man was tearing his tattered clothes, and then wrapped the torn clean cloth strips around Yilu's wound several times and tied them tightly.

"That's fine."

The deep and magnetic voice of the black dragon echoed in Yilu's ears, as if it was a temptation, forcing Yilu's eyes to stick firmly to the black dragon. Different from Yilu's slightly weak and handsome, the human-shaped black dragon is a kind of wild Beauty, every inch of flesh contains power, like a perfect human statue, Iru has to admit that he admires such power.

The young man's gaze was solid, like a hot breath, which made the black dragon tremble.Until now, he still doesn't quite understand the real meaning behind Xiao Caibao's gaze. What he can know is that Xiao Caibao likes his master very much—that is, himself.

The black dragon felt a little proud in his heart, then stepped back a few steps and turned into a dragon again.

He thought, the little guy is so dependent on and respects him, so he should protect the little guy better and not let him get hurt again.

It's just that the restlessness of this day is not over yet.

A gust of wind blew, and the blowing branches rattled, like the last warning before dark, a huge thunder sounded above their heads, and dark clouds covered every corner of the sky in an instant.

The black dragon stood in front of Iru to shield him from the wind.

It can't go on like this, the rain is coming soon, if the little guy gets wet, he will get sick, and now he doesn't have the bottle of healing potion on hand, it will be troublesome then.

The black dragon thought quickly, blowing out white smoke from the tip of his nose, as if he had made a decision.He carefully picked up Iru, supported him with his two paws, and walked through the bushes, looking for a place to shelter from the rain.

A burst of thunder flashed, and the light was fleeting, but the black dragon grabbed the light's tail and ran towards the cave in front left with all its strength.Finally he reached the shelter before the heavy rain came.

It was dark in the cave, and it was impossible to see anything, but Iru knew it was a very large cave, big enough to hold many black dragons.Sitting on the black dragon's paw, Yiru felt at ease, but at the same time was worried.

Such a huge cave may have an owner. If there is one, it should be many times larger than the black dragon.

The rain outside has already fallen, and the rain is as heavy as Heilong expected.It's just that the rain didn't stop after waiting for a long time, and what Iru worried about didn't happen.

Except for the sound of pattering rain, everything seemed so peaceful.

"Seg, I want to come down, can I?" Yiru moved on the black dragon's paw.

"Of course, I don't think there is any danger here." The black dragon gently put Yilu down, and then retracted its claws after confirming that Yilu landed safely.

The black dragon has good night vision ability, but this does not mean that it can see things clearly in a completely dark environment. A cave without a little light is tantamount to covering its eyes with a layer of bad vision for the black dragon. Transparent cloth.Although there is a flash of thunder that can be used, the black dragon still determines Iru's safety by feeling.Moreover, the black dragon didn't dare to swallow its proud purple flame at will. This kind of long-term lighting requires ingenious control technology. The black dragon was afraid that if it was not careful, it would burn the rain shelter cave to ashes, and finally both of them would become drowned chickens.

But what depressed the black dragon the most was that the cave was empty, without even a tree branch, otherwise even a piece of firewood would be enough for it to see everything clearly.

Just when the black dragon was depressed, Yilu, who was sitting on his feet, left his original position.

The black dragon moved the paw on its left hind leg, and called out "little guy" worriedly.

"I'm on your left, Saige." The sound of wind and branches mixed with thunder made the young man's voice seem so weak.Heilong squatted down slowly, and asked again: "I didn't hear what you said just now, can you say it again."

The black dragon's thick voice echoed in the empty cave, and it lasted for a long time.This time Iru seized the moment, targeting a quieter moment, and yelled, "I'm on your left, Seg, and I spotted something weird."

"Strange thing?" This time the young man's voice fell into the ears of the black dragon, and the black dragon followed the young man's words and asked back.

"I don't know what it is, it seems to be words." The young man's voice sounded a little uncertain.

"Human characters?" The black dragon's first reaction was the dust-sized characters on the books that were forced to him.

The young man fell silent, as if he was carefully groping for something on the ground.

"Little guy?" the black dragon called out again.

"It doesn't seem to be written by the human race." The young man's voice was full of doubts, but the next second he shouted excitedly, "Guess what, Seg, guess what I found."

"A secret? A gem? A piece of gold..." The black dragon guessed all the things he could think of that would make him happy, but Yilu answered no.

"Okay Saige, you didn't even guess right, I'll announce the answer directly." Iru paused, and said in a very solemn tone, "It's a stone statue of a dragon, right under your and my feet, it Very large, I have never seen such a large dragon stone statue."

"How can you be sure what it is. Maybe it's another pattern or text."

The black dragon cleared his throat, a little displeased that his little treasure was so excited to mention other dragons.

"No, I'm sure. That's great, Saige, it would be great if there was a torch or something else to illuminate." Yilu's tone was agitated, and he couldn't hear the extra meaning in the black dragon's words.

Heilong felt even more uncomfortable when he heard Yilu say this, and he didn't answer, just sulking on his own.

"Seg, I'm sure now, those words seem to be necromantic words." The two in the dark were silent for a while for their own reasons.Finally broke because of Yiru's new discovery.

"Necronomicon? There is also this kind of writing." Heilong was also interested and asked curiously.

"Sigh, breath, sigh, breath, again, sigh, breath, death, death, death, go, nothing, difference, difference." Yilu recalled what he had learned before, touching each word word by word, unconsciously They translated them in the language of the human race.

"Sigh, sigh, sigh, there is no difference between death and death." Yilu read these words together.As soon as he finished reading, the whole cave brightened up as if it had met the sun.

Just as Yilu thought, this cave was very empty and huge, and just as the black dragon thought, this cave didn't even have a branch, it was empty, except for the patterns under their feet.

With the help of the light coming from nowhere, Yiru observed carefully, and he found that the stone carving of the huge dragon he thought was slowly rotating counterclockwise.

"Seg, jump out of this stone carving!" Yilu shouted.

The black dragon did the same, and when the two came out with the pattern, the stone carving was still spinning unsteadily. A few minutes later, when the dragon's head that was originally facing the cave entrance moved to the place where the necromancer characters were written, there was a "boom", The stone carving was opened from the middle, and a spiral staircase appeared under the stone carving.
