"You see that?" The old magician didn't know when he stood behind Dewey. His tone was bitter: "I saw those things once 200 years ago. Right here. "
"You and Semel have been here?" "Two hundred years ago?" Dewey said with a wry smile
"Yes, I came 200 years ago. In order to find the legacy of Aragorn, unfortunately, I didn't find the prophecy at that time. I couldn't open the treasure left by Aragorn. So I came back empty handed. " The old magician whispered: "I saw these bones at the foot of the North Mountain 200 years ago."
"What are they?" Dewey raised his own question.
"It's the legendary race that was banished by the gods. In ancient times, they lived with human beings in the continent of Roland. But later, because of betraying the gods and was exiled, all the way north, was driven out of the land of Roland. Over the mountain, to the north. No one knows exactly where the north is. The only thing we know is that it's a place of exile, where the exiled races live. And the dragon people here are the guards here. However, from ancient times to the present, some of those races will try to "come back". Unfortunately, they can't cross the sacred mountain held by the Dragon tribe, and they can't continue to go back... Even if they can cross the sacred mountain, behind them are the "forgotten ice field" of endless terrible storms, and the cold frozen forest full of Warcraft crisis! By these places, the exiled race will never return to the continent of Roland again
The old magician said, pointing to the foot of the mountain: "those bones are some strong people in the exiled race, some outstanding strong people, trying to rely on their own strong strength to cross the barrier set by the gods. But they all failed. They were killed by the dragon people under the holy mountain. "
"How do you know these places?" he asked
"The head of the dragon clan told me." The old magician said with a smile: "I came here 200 years ago... The patriarch here is a very complicated guy. You can see it when you see it."
On the evening of the third day, they finally reached the top of the mountain.
On the top of the holy mountain is a huge cave. To Du Wei, the cave is like a beehive. There are seven or eight holes in the cave, and there are faint bursts of dragon roaring inside. And overhead, a group of flying dragons circled around, they seemed to be the role of sentinels.
Dragon's vision and hearing are far better than other creatures. In this flat ice field, they can even see the movement of the ground more than ten miles away!
The leader of the sentry, the huge black dragon, was already impatient. He growled on the heads of the crowd: "you are too slow! The patriarch is waiting for you
Then one paw pointed to the biggest Cave: "go in! But don't run
The cave is big! Super large!
This is Dewey's first influence. The top of this almost pure iron mountain seems to have been hollowed out. Came in, there were still gusts of strong wind blowing out of the huge earth cave.
Entering the cave entrance, it is not dark inside, on the contrary, there is a golden light shining round and round.
The cave lies on the mountainside. Actually inlaid with all kinds of baby! Gold, colorful gems, all kinds of glittering things, give out a brilliant light!
Dewey was surprised. But the old magician held him tightly, and then took the people to the cave.
All the way in, the cave is very deep, the foot is hard, but here is not cold, came inside, but saw in front of the cave passage, is a huge iron door! At the door is a cross winch. I don't know what the quality of the chain is. It's dark.
Next to the iron door, there was a huge black dragon lying on the ground, snoring and sleeping. Between the opening and closing of the dragon's mouth, the sound of snoring was like thunder, with strong wind.
The old magician coughed, and then cried out, "Friends of mankind, come to see the dragon clan leader!"
The Dragon didn't respond.
The old magician coughed hard: "the great dragon clan leader, the old friend of mankind has come to see you!"
The Dragon didn't respond.
The old magician was a little angry. He strode over. And then stand by the mouth of the dragon. His height is just as big as the dragon's head. The old magician took out his wand. Then, he nodded on the dragon's nose and said in a deep voice, "I haven't seen you for 200 years. Are you still so sleepy?"
A faint black air flowed into the nose of the dragon. The sleeping dragon suddenly twisted, suddenly opened its mouth, and then sneezed!
Roar!!
This roar almost deafened Dewey's ears! The strong hurricane even blew out the old magician's hat.
"Who is it! Wake me up The Dragon shook his head and opened his eyes. The yellow eyes were staring at the old magician. They turned a few times. Finally, the dragon's voice was very kind: "you? You are... "
"I'm human and your friend. I've come to see the great dragon patriarch."
At last, the dragon was fully awake. Its huge body stood up and looked at the old magician in front of him like a small one. His nose blew out a breath, and then suddenly he said in a loud voice: "I remember you! I know you! Last time you were here“ Yes The old magician arranged his hair casually: "Dear bodyguard, please open the door and let me in to see your clan leader."“ I don't like you. " "I hate being woken up from sleep!" roared the dragon“ But I have something urgent The old magician shrugged his shoulders: "besides, I have a contract with your dragon clan. I have the right to see the clan leader."“ Ok... "The Dragon muttered," well, according to the tradition, let's pass me first! " With that, the dragon stood upright, its wings behind it opened, and then bared his teeth... This expression, it is probably in the grimace, right? Do you want to fight first? Hussein has quietly stood in the nearest place behind the old magician. If you want to fight, it's not a suitable place for magicians to fight in such a cave, and he, the most powerful knight in the melee, will naturally bear the brunt against the dragon. However, the old magician turned around and laughed at him, waved his hand and indicated that he didn't need to do it. Then the old magician looked at the dragon in front of him: "well, is it still the old rule? Your honor, chief bodyguard? "“ yes! As long as you can convince me with your wisdom, I will open this door! " The Dragon roared: "the winner can pass! The loser, stay outside the door! " Dewey was stunned. He looked at the old magician. The old magician was also looking at him: "do you understand? It's Wendou! This giant dragon is the bodyguard of the dragon clan leader. He was the first warrior of the dragon clan 700 years ago! But what it pursues now is not strength, but wisdom... "And the old magician winked at Dewey. Sure enough, the Dragon immediately roared with pride: "yes! I'm the first warrior of the dragon! What I want to pursue now is the title of the first wise man of the Dragon nationality! Let's make a question! Don't go in unless you can embarrass me! " Compare wisdom with dragon?! Dewey was stunned. The old magician had turned back to him, pushed him, and said with a smile, "I know you're a smart guy, so now you're on your own! This game is two wins in three sets, as long as we can win it twice. Otherwise, you don't want to go in. " "Do you really want this?" duvet sighed The Dragon answered first, holding his head high and roaring with pride: "this is my rule!"“ Well, all right. " Dewey thought for a moment and nodded yes. Compared with the giant dragon, wisdom... The dragon is recognized as a higher creature, even higher than human beings, although human beings don't think so. The Dragon nationality has a long life, high wisdom and strong strength. The long life and wisdom make them have longer learning time than human beings... Theoretically speaking, the dragon people are higher than human beings only from the individual point of view. But it's just theory“ So, what are the rules of this contest? " Dewey went up to the dragon and said with a smile“ It's very simple, as long as the questions you ask can embarrass me. " The dragon was very proud with a smile: "but I need to remind you, don't underestimate my wisdom! I have a full understanding of your human wisdom! The patriarch has been to the human world, studied your human civilization, and taught me a lot! Human beings, don't expect to deceive me with your human tricks! "“ Any questions? " Dewey blinked“ Any questions! " The Dragon nodded for sure“ All right Dewey laughed maliciously: "then I've got a question." With a slight cough, Dewey said with a faint smile: "my topic is like this. It's a very simple mathematical problem: suppose there is a row of houses. There is one person in the first house, two people in the second house, three people in the third house, four people in the fourth house... And so on, There will be more people in each house in the back than in the one in front! My question is, when we count to the thousandth house, how many people are there in the thousand houses
