Chapter 418 - Shao Xuan Of Flaming Horn
Last night, while Shao Xuan was asleep, he saw many people in his dream. Although he couldn’t see their faces clearly, he was sure he didn’t know any of them.
He saw someone carving words on the face of the cliff. The first person looked very defeated, carving the first line. Then, there were people who came and merely read the writings, while the rest took out their knives to carve a comment. Some looked serious, others were proud.
Other than this wall, there were other people carving words on other parts of the mountain too.
There were two carvings that had the most people visiting them. One was the discussion about forging and casting that he had read about. The other one was…
Shao Xuan approached another wall according to what he saw in his dream last night. There were many plants here, the vines were so thick they covered the entire wall.
He carefully cut off the vines to reveal the words underneath.
However, the difference was that the earliest line of words was written using some colour pigment. He didn’t know what pigment it was that could penetrate into the stone and still remain so clear after so long.
Before he left, Shao Xuan wrote a line of words along the wall of the crater, going in a circle: Thank you to the elders who have visited Gongjia Valley. This trip has been bountiful. —Shao Xuan of Flaming Horn
