Magus Tech Chapter 589: Guess about the sea of death
In the middle of the snowy moon.
A long convoy was driving along the road, and all the convoys were wizards and wizard apprentices from the dark forest gathering place in the jungle hut.
Similar to what Tifeng said at the beginning, many wizards actively participated in the exchange meeting of Deep Blue Castle, so there were only 31 wizard apprentices, 17 first-level wizards, and five second-level wizards in just one dark forest gathering place. Level wizards, including the administrator Eva. Although this can't be called an all-out mobilization, after all some people are needed to stay behind, but it is almost half of the strength, and Li Cha is one of these people.
"Squeak..."
"Da da da da..."
The convoy continued to move forward. Some people sat in the carriage to save trouble, while others chose to ride horses because there was no unified command, and the entire team stretched very long.
Generally speaking, there are great hidden dangers in this way of marching. Once thieves attack from the middle, the entire team will be cut off and fall into a situation of being divided and suppressed. But after all, the team is full of people with extraordinary power, so I really don't worry too much about it. If there are thieves attacking, the unlucky ones will only be the thieves themselves, not the convoy.
Li Cha was riding a horse, marching in the middle of the convoy, with a calm expression. There's not a lot of tension, but it's not totally let down, either, keeping it as sharp as it should be.
After walking for a while, he followed the entire convoy to the edge of a huge lake. Li Cha took out the map from his pocket, glanced at it, and raised his eyebrows uncontrollably. Turning his head to look at the wizard Teddy who was also riding a horse beside him, he asked, "Teddy, is the lake next to this called Taklamakan Lake?"
"Yes." The wizard Teddy looked over. Although he has many shortcomings, as a librarian in the gathering place, his knowledge is still passable, and he quickly gave a definite answer.
After giving the answer, it is customary to add: "By the way, do you think that the name of this lake is a mouthful? It's not like Mirror Lake or Sapphire Lake. It's nice and easy to remember."
"Do you know the reason?" Li Cha asked, but he was thinking in his heart: Could this be another coincidence?
Teddy replied with some flamboyance: "Of course I know the reason. Who am I? Let me tell you, the reason why this lake is called this name is because of the aboriginal language a long time ago. I heard that in the aboriginal language,' Taklamakan' means the sea of death, which means that it is very dangerous here."
"The sea of death? It's dangerous?" Li Cha looked at the lake, "If it's really dangerous, then why do we go this way?"
"Uh, this—" the wizard Teddy got stuck immediately. Although he had passed the level of knowledge, it didn't mean he was omniscient. It is rumored that there is a powerful God of Death living in this lake, who usually sleeps and ignores the world, but every few hundred years, he will wake up once, and take away all the life he can see with great power, whether it is human or animal, Even reptiles deep in the soil are spared.
You see, this kind of rumor, just listen to it, if it is true, it is too ridiculous. After all, we are wizards, not priests, nor are we stupid farmers and women who believe in the existence of such a thing as death. "
After hearing this, Li Cha didn't speak, but instead showed a pensive expression.
"I said, you are not!" Teddy cried out, looking at Li Cha's exaggerated way, "You won't tell me that you believe in death? I always think you are very smart, if you If so, I will be disappointed.”
Li Cha shook his head after hearing this, and continued to maintain a contemplative expression: "I don't believe in death, I'm just thinking about the rumors you said."
"Huh?"
Richard said: "The Taklimakan Lake, the Sea of Death, the legend of the God of Death, these things must have some basis. Every few hundred years, the creatures around the lake will die once. It may be true. If If this is the case, then there must be a hidden reason. Maybe there is no illusory **** of death, but there will be another kind of thing that really exists."
"Uh, okay." Teddy shrugged, "Then what do you think?"
"I don't know, but I can try to collect some information first." Li Cha said, speaking, he threw the rein in his hand towards Teddy, letting the other party hold his horse and jump directly to the ground Go up and walk towards the lake.
"Tack tap..."
Walking to the edge of the lake, Li Cha picked up a few gravels and inspected them, and took a handful of water to observe for a while.
"What, did you find anything?" Teddy asked curiously.
"No." Li Cha shook his head, walked back to the horse, took the rein from Teddy, got on the horse, and responded, "At present, I can only confirm that it is not a water quality problem."
"It's all nonsense!" A voice sounded from the side, it was the wizard Van Helsing. The other party also participated in this exchange meeting, seeing the opportunity to mock Li Cha at this time, he didn't let it go.
"If there is a problem with the water quality, the lake will be a dead lake. Not to mention the fish and shrimp in the lake, even the plants on the shore will not grow. But in fact, the fish and shrimp in this lake are There are many, and there are never fewer plants on the shore~IndoMTL.com~ Now it is snowy moon, it is not obvious yet, when the summer is scorching moon, the lush appearance of plants can scare you to death." Fan Helsing rolled his eyes and said disdainfully, "So, some people look good, but in fact they only talk nonsense like farting, tsk!"
After hearing what Van Helsing said, Teddy immediately became angry. He looked at Van Helsing and shouted, "Fan Helsing, who are you talking about! Make it clear!"
"Hmph." Van Helsing glanced at Teddy, curled his lips and said, "Anyway, you're right if you didn't say anything, and don't put it on yourself, after all, you're a wizard, so it's not good to underestimate yourself."
While speaking, Fan Helsing flicked his horsewhip and accelerated forward.
Teddy was so angry that he spat at Fan Helsing's back, then turned his head to look at Li Cha, but couldn't help but be taken aback: "Hey, aren't you angry?"
"Angry?" Li Cha shook his head and asked, "Why should I be angry?"
"He was scolding you just now, saying you fart!" Teddy was puzzled.
"But I'm not a child anymore, can't I scold him?" Li Cha said with a chuckle, then changed his tone and said with a thoughtful expression, "By the way, I still want to thank him, Because his words reminded me and gave me a new guess about this Taklamakan Lake."
"New guess? What?"
"That's what he scolded me."
"Huh?" Teddy still didn't understand.
"I'll tell you when I'm sure." Richard said, not going to explain further.
"Whatever." Teddy shrugged, not looking very curious, he rode forward and Li Cha followed.
