The Defeated Dragon

Chapter 119: Cold magic in the keel

Views:

A mighty group of people stepped on the stagnant water on horseback.

The retinue knights and personal servants surrounded Liszt back and forth, and officials such as Galtai and Marcus followed closely. Compared with the three or two kittens in the past, the current scene has the momentum of "crowding in front and hugging in back".

In fact, in a small town, there is no need for so many people to follow.

But Liszt did it anyway-he liked this aristocratic style very much. Compared with the earl, and even his elder brother Levi's, he was followed by a squad of knights when he went out. His team is not big enough, and he has to work hard to develop.

It would be best if you could even bring Dou Sen and Juan Fu.

Lead the yellow on the left and Qingcang on the right.

"My lord, the roads in Huahua Town are easier to walk than those in Coral City." Isaiah sincerely admired, "Every time it rains, Coral City feels like a city of excrement, and the feces floating on the streets are disgusting. Here, there is no feces, not even silt."

The main road is a gravel road, basically there will be no silt.

Between the villages is the sea sand road, there will be silt, but not much.

Gao Ertai complimented with a timely laugh: "Without the wisdom of adults, there would not be such a wonderful environment in Huahua Town. I couldn't appreciate the benefits of road construction before, but it was unfolded in front of me bit by bit. I hope In the future, every road will be built into a gravel road.”

Liszt smiled.

He didn't show any smug look—it's nothing, when the cement is made later, there will be times when people will be even more surprised.

The sky has not completely cleared, and there is still a drizzle. He was wearing a large black cloak, and he was riding a pure black Lilong horse. He looked very gloomy at first glance. If it weren't for a handsome face and a few strands of light golden hair on the forehead, it would add vividness.

It is estimated that it can pretend to be the ring spirit in "The Lord of the Rings".

After a while, the group arrived at Damai Village. The woman who died of illness was a serf in Damai Village.

The corpse is still parked at home. According to the funeral custom of the Grand Duchy of Sapphire, after a person dies, he is buried directly in the ground. However, it has been raining heavily for the past few days, making it impossible to bury the bodies.

The three children of the woman who died of illness, two adults, led by their dull father, knelt on the ground to welcome Liszt's arrival.

I have my own followers to explain it for me.

Liszt only needs to walk to the corpse and check it. Marcus and Galtai checked the corpse first, but they didn't see anything wrong with the corpse.

Liszt then inspected it himself.

It was his first time to face the dead. He felt a little nervous in his heart, but he controlled himself very well and did not show any emotion. Observing with the naked eye, he didn't see anything wrong with the corpse, but when he cast his magic eye.

There was a flash of black magic on the corpse.

When I looked closely, the black magic disappeared again. Liszt chose to trust his own eyes. He observed quietly. After about a minute, another black magic power flickered in the corpse, and then disappeared.

"My lord, have you observed anything?" Marcus asked.

"There is a problem with the corpse. I felt signs of magic power on the corpse. She didn't die from a normal disease, but was infected with some kind of dirty thing."

Gao Ertai was surprised: "Is there really something dirty? What could it be? If it was stained from a sunken ship, could it be a ghost? Legend has it that there are ghost ships on the sea. The sunken ship we found could not be a ghost ship." Bar."

"Yes or no, you will know when you go to check it... By the way, what do you think should be done with this corpse?"

"It should be burned to be safe."

There is no concept of "the dead are the greatest" here, and there is no Qingming ancestor worship. After people die, they are basically simply buried, especially civilians.

If you die, roll up a straw mat, dig a deep pit and bury it, there will be nothing to do later.

There are even some civilians who are unwilling to dig a hole at all, and it is possible to directly throw the corpses of their relatives into the mountains or into the water. So when Gao Ertai proposed to burn the corpse, the dull husband of the woman who died of illness did not have any objections, on the contrary, he was also vaguely excited.

Because Liszt asked Galtai to give the other party ten silver coins as compensation.

The dirty things brought by the shipwreck killed the woman. In the final analysis, Liszt himself should be blamed for not allowing others to dispose of the wreckage of the shipwreck.

Although he is the lord, there will be no punishment.

Ten silver coins are also a comfort to my conscience.

After a while.

a fire.

The corpse was burned to ashes in the flames.

Looking at the burned residue, and no trace of black magic power was found, Liszt was relieved. Facts have proved that even dirty things can be cleaned by a fire.

Finished with the corpse.

A group of people rushed to Shenghao Village and came near the sunken ship.

Before Liszt approached, Marcus stopped him aloud: "My lord, the sinking ship is dangerous, you should avoid it, just leave it to us for inspection."

Galtai also said righteously: "Yes, my lord, you shouldn't put yourself in danger. Mr. Marcus is an elite land knight, and he will definitely be able to deal with the sinking ship." When he spoke, he stood Beside Liszt, he had no intention of getting close to the sunken ship.

The sunken ship seems to have been washed away by heavy rain, and the seaweed and other attachments on the surface have been washed away in large swaths, revealing mottled wooden boards and rusted metal brackets. This is not a big ship, it is much smaller than the Flower, and it is also seriously damaged. You can basically see the cabin from the outside.

Marcus led the members of the knight team to surround the sunken ship and was about to enter the cabin for inspection.

Liszt said suddenly: "Mr. Marcus, don't bother so much. There must be something wrong with this sunken ship. Just smash it, dismantle it, and check it board by board to avoid accidents."

A shipwreck with filth, which he doesn't intend to keep as an attraction.

So violent disassembly is the safest and fastest way.

Naturally, Marcus would not refuse, and immediately led people to split the sunken ship. The planks and iron frames were dismantled and piled up on the beach.

During this process, Liszt has been casting the magic eye intermittently.

Just as the two retinue knights were carrying a broken keel, Liszt suddenly saw black magic flickering at the fracture of the keel.

Magic is usually colored.

For example, most of the magic power of the fire attribute is red, and most of the magic power of the water attribute is blue, especially when it is manifested as fighting spirit. But it is not absolute. Some magic powers are expressed as a variety of mixed attributes, and there will be all kinds of strange colors, and some do not show any attributes, and there will be various colors.

Even mages who have studied magic to a high level cannot solve the mystery of the essence of magic.

What does black magic represent.

Liszt didn't understand.

But he knew that he had probably found the cause of the shipwreck's problems: "Mr. Marcus, check this keel carefully. I can feel the traces of magic power."

After Liszt's reminder, Marcus quickly picked up the keel, touched the keel with both hands, observed and sensed it carefully. After a while, Marcus' eyes glowed, and he also felt the magic power: "My lord, if there is a problem, I feel a cold magic power!"

Liszt said in a deep tone: "Small this keel, I want to see what is hidden inside!"
