So what is the reason?
Could it be because the Wenquan Dragon Family reclaimed this place?
Their nerves were all on edge, and they had a premonition that they were not far from the Fei Che Holy Spring.
The time in the projection continues to change.
Like a fast-forwarded construction scene, countless human-shaped dots carrying materials and tools shuttled around the lake, quickly building houses, villages, docks, and farms.
Many of them were skilled hunters who knew how to hunt in the wilderness and fish in the frozen lakes. Perhaps within a month, they had already set up their fishing nets, raised the extra lambs they had caught, and planted fruit trees around them.
It was also during this process that they finally realized the unique magic of the hot spring dragon.
Each of them - technically everyone in the family - has the power to extract water from the environment.
Dew, mist, wet towels, and even wet mud on the roadside... Depending on the strength of their abilities, they can extract a small amount of water vapor from these environments to drink, which greatly enhances their ability to survive in the wild.
It may not seem particularly impressive at first glance, but at the same time they can also inject the extracted water vapor into other life.
The biggest profit here is obviously the planting industry. Hitzfeld finally understood why they carried fruit trees and grain seeds with them.
Generally speaking, this kind of tribe that prefers hunting will not have the habit of sowing seeds, because they may have to leave for 1-3 seasons after sowing seeds, and they will not have time to harvest them, and the seeds will only be wasted by wild beasts in the mountains.
But hot spring dragons are different. By extracting water vapor from vegetation, hot spring dragons can ripen fruit seedlings ahead of time. They can always eat sweet and juicy fruits before leaving, and the quantity is sometimes so much that it can serve as a staple food.
It seems... they always seem to be able to catch up with the footsteps of spring, and no matter where they take root, the breath of spring will soon blow there.
"It's amazing..." Xia Yibing couldn't help but sigh, "If the great nobles of Sara knew this secret, they would no longer arrest the people of Xinan Te to grow cotton."
"......?" Hitzfeld remained silent at first, but when he realized the meaning of the words, he couldn't help but look at her.
How strange.
I think Mr. Alex would be very sad if he knew what you said.
This is just an episode.
During this process, they finally confirmed that the migration of the hot spring dragons was to chase the Fei Che Holy Spring.
Amu and Tori have grown up in time, and are now a young man and a young girl in their twenties. They have been called by the bearded man more than once to pass on their experience, all of which are related to the holy spring.
Another day, during a break in hunting, the bearded man brought the two men to the hillside and ordered them to dismount, half-kneel down, and put their hands on the ground with their hands open.
"Concentrate your energy on sensing it." He examined them from behind, "Sense that vague connection... Can you feel it? In which direction is it?"
"I'm not sure, Dad..." Tori frowned and closed her eyes tightly, "I can feel that there are four springs nearby... but it seems that none of them can give me guidance..."
"Don't be discouraged, this is normal," the man consoled her, "I couldn't sense as much when I was your age. Keep going Tori, you're making rapid progress."
Then he walked over to the young man, half-knelt down, and heard the young man mumbling to himself with his eyes closed.
"North... West... North... West..."
"Amu."
"Huh!? Yes Dad!"
The young man was startled by him and quickly opened his eyes: "I do feel like there is something... but I'm not sure... it seems to be moving?"
"Isn't it normal for the fountain to move..." Tori looked at him like he was an idiot.
"I'm not talking about the water moving!" Amu jumped up angrily, "It's the 'water spring' as a whole! It's swimming underground like a giant python!"
"This is impossible……"
"Okay stop!"
Before Tori could finish her sentence, the man raised his hand to stop the argument.
He asked the two to stand up and told them in a very serious tone: "Fei Che Holy Spring is alive."
Not only did the two children not quite believe it, even Hitzfeld and the other man who were watching thought he was exaggerating.
But relatively speaking, they accept it faster.
Live……
Even the Dragon God Tomb is alive and moves around underground, and a spring can move. This doesn't seem strange...
"If it wasn't alive, we wouldn't have to work so hard for it for so many years."
The bearded man let out a long sigh of relief.
"Since my grandfather's time, no, strictly speaking, the family has been chasing it since my grandfather can remember... This is the ultimate dream of several generations of hot spring dragons. We must catch the Fei Che Holy Spring!"
"But why?" Tori didn't understand.
"Is it because it can be used to make many fire knives?" Amu asked.
"We don't need too many mundane weapons." The man shook his head. "Now it's time to tell you - there has been a secret legend in Dragon Country since ancient times. Whoever can capture Fei Che's Holy Spring will get the treasure left behind by Dragon God Kyle!"
This is the reason!
Hitzfeld was stunned at first, then quickly understood.
indeed.
The Dragon God's Tomb is alive.
The Fei Che Holy Spring is also alive.
She knew that it was wrong to set up the equation like this...but the person involved had already admitted it~so maybe...the Fei Che Holy Spring was stored in the Dragon God's Tomb?
Have the hot spring dragons migrated for generations just to find the mysterious dragon treasure?
She suddenly had a premonition: the following story might be closely related to the "first opening of the Dragon Tomb" that no Dragon Guard family had ever recorded.
Because no one has stipulated where the Dragon God's Tomb is today, and it must have been located in the same place in ancient times.
"Do you know why I chose this direction on purpose?"
The man in the projection is still teaching the younger generation.
"Do you know why I let them stay by the lake for half a year?"
The two children shook their heads.
"In the past six months, we have spread out our formation and blocked the only exit of this valley."
The man nodded, a hint of joy unconsciously showing on his face.
"And there is a large area of refined iron ore buried deep under this valley. It is equivalent to being trapped here and can no longer escape!"
He couldn't help feeling excited and proud that his ancestors' long-cherished wish was actually being realized in his own hands.
If he didn't have to maintain his image in front of the children, he would have wanted to howl down below.
But the good times didn't last long.
As soon as he finished speaking, a rider came riding up from behind, dismounted and whispered to him.
Hitzfeld was in ghost form, so she could eavesdrop without restraint. She heard them talking about "tracker".
There is a cold front coming from the north, like a snowstorm, and there seems to be someone hiding in it.
And in the east, right behind them, an army appeared.
The knight in the front held up a lance with a rectangular banner on it. The cloth slowly spread out in the wind, and the scout saw a red-scaled fire dragon with bared fangs and claws.
Chapter 97 Fei Che Holy Spring 6
The poplar tree made a dull sound due to the impact of the body. Under the gaze of two "ghosts", a man wrapped in black iron armor with frost on his eyebrows and beard pressed his big beard against the tree.
He looks a bit like Big Beard. They both have the same broad back and are tall...but the difference is that Ice Beard's eyebrows and hair are brown-red, just like the rage flashing in his eyes.
"You violated our ancestral teachings, Lazuli!" He grabbed the big bearded man by the collar and roared at him, "Our ancestral teachings said that we should unite to chase it! You promised us that... You lied to us!!"
"I did promise you." The bearded man, whom he called "Lazuli," said in a deep voice, "but I didn't lie."
"You kept most of the people to maintain the empty shell, and secretly brought these elite players out for three years - do you think others are fools? Will they believe that you are looking for the Feiche Holy Spring?"
"The Holy Spring of Feiche really exists." Lazuli insisted, "I have evidence, and I will not act without any basis."
Red-haired Icebeard glared at him fiercely for a long time, then suddenly let go of him: "You'd better give me an explanation!"
"I will." Lazuli raised the corners of his mouth, reached out to straighten his ruffled collar, raised his head and glanced at the two groups of people confronting each other not far away.
The group on the left only wore leather armor and carried muskets and hunting bows; the group on the right was fully armed with iron armor like Red Hair Ice Beard. The factor that allowed them to maintain balance was that the former were much more numerous than the latter... He immediately waved his hand to signal to his people that everything was fine here.
Both groups breathed a sigh of relief.
At the most tense moment, they almost came to blows. However, they both knew each other's abilities, which was a development that neither side wanted to see.
"The ancestral teachings are incomplete." Lazuli stared at Binghu, "You know this, right?"
"When we rescued it from the ruins of the Moon Palace, it was almost scattered into pieces of paper." Icebeard nodded, "We supplemented some of the contents based on the rescued content... You don't think that some of the contents were supplemented incorrectly?"
"I can't be sure about that for now." Lazuli shook his head, "But one thing is for sure, there is absolutely no such thing as 'united to hunt it down' in our ancestral teachings!"
"Are you crazy? That's the original text!"
"Chasing and hunting are two different concepts!" Lazuli insisted, "Glarant and Smurf both have their own fixed territories. Only we and Sali are different... Sali is unwilling to show up due to his ability. Then only we... have extra troops to deal with it."
"You are too arrogant, Lazuli!" Icebeard was about to roar again: "Look at the people I brought with me, and the people Simorf will be coming soon! You tell me that only you can do it?"
"You saw the result, but what about the process?" Lazuli narrowed his eyes. "You also know that it took three years... ? If I hadn't deployed manpower in these three years, followed the guidance of fate and chased it all the way, and even sent people to take a long detour just to block its escape route, do you think it would foolishly run to the valley? Think it over and answer me! Can Glarant and Simorf mobilize so many people to replicate these three years?"
“Even so…even so…” Bing Hu was a little stuck, then he pushed forward with anger and said: “This is not a reason for you to hide the news!!”
"What do you think that is? Lazuli... That is the legacy left by His Majesty the Dragon God! Perhaps we are qualified to get our hands on it and steal some of its wealth, but the relics buried in the deepest part must be left to the bloodline family! That has nothing to do with us! Did you hear me??"
While the two men were arguing, Hitzfeld frowned and thought.
Yes... She did know that in order to follow Queen Severi's last wish, which was to "try his best to divide his own power", the Dragon God Kyle divided the dragons into four families and a large number of bloodline descendants.
At first, she did not understand the motivation for doing so - because at first glance, it would not play a decisive role in dividing the forces. Maybe these forces will be scattered for 20 or 50 years, but what about 80 or 100 years? After being scattered for a long time, people's hearts will always want to gather together.
But now she understood: the Four Dragon Guards most likely did not have the bloodline of the Dragon God.
In the earliest legends, the Dragon Guard family was also a descendant of the Dragon Blood and a member of the Dragon Blood Family. They should also be eligible to inherit the throne.
But the development of history is... No matter how many times the royal power changes, no matter how much chaos the country falls into, the Dragon Guards are always the Dragon Guards, and not once have they crossed the line and stretched out their covetous hands towards the royal power.
This is totally inconsistent with her perception.
Human desires are not easy to control, just like there are ambitious people like Kaloni today. Over the years, is there no one like him in the Dragon Guards?
impossible.
Combining the information, the best explanation she could find was that... the Dragon God Kyle originally separated "power" and "bloodline".
She didn't know how he did it. Anyway - he used the "power" to create four Dragon Guard tribes. Although they had power, they were not nominal, and they might even have the restraining power to make the Dragon Guards face his bloodline descendants - no matter how many generations they had passed down, no matter how thin their bloodline was, it would be difficult for them to muster the will to fight.
The "bloodline" is used to sow seeds in large quantities, resulting in the situation where the tribe's descendants are too numerous to be controlled, further dividing them and making it difficult for them to collude for profit.
In this way, the Dragon Guards have strength but cannot fight for power, and their descendants have name but no power, and they check and balance each other. This may be the historical truth of Talignant's two hundred years of turmoil.
In reality, the reason why Kaloni-Deka coveted the position might be because the person sitting in that position today is indeed not a descendant of Kyle.
Queen Milanka came from the Frost Dragon family. Her descendants inherited that bloodline, but she herself did not.
So this is an extraordinary power?
Throughout history, no matter how turbulent the situation was, no Dragon Guard had ever usurped the throne, because there were too many bloodline families.
There are too many of them. If one dies, there are still ten. If ten die, there are still a hundred.
It's like a blood curse... the suppression of blood... whenever there are people from the bloodline family who want to fight for power, the Dragon Guards cannot harbor any desire and can only serve the new king as dogs.
Well, their status may be much higher than that of dogs, and even the new king needs their recognition, but there is actually no difference in essence.
"And now that the shackles have loosened, he has developed ambitions..."
"what?"
Xia Yibing had been listening to the two men arguing, and suddenly heard her whispering. She turned towards her curiously.
Hitzfeld told her his guess while paying attention to the developments in the projection, causing the woman to exclaim in a low voice: "So, it seems that her...Milanka's daughter's death is very problematic!"
The balance that has been built in Tarignan by the Bloodline Family and the Dragon Guard Family for many years has been broken in recent years due to the strong rise of the Undead Party.
Perhaps the Earl was not so ambitious at the beginning... because at least the country still had a legally legitimate heir, but because she was a girl and was young, her mother needed to act as regent.
But the girl died.
Thinking more deeply, Xia Yibing got goosebumps.
