The salmon migration was an unexpected surprise for Ashfurnace, and Merlin had asked many of the old people in Ashfurnace Village, and they all said they had never seen such a situation. Yoda had his opinion.

"Salmon migrates up the river and eventually spawns in the mountains of the river and then dies. The small streams in the valley of the ash furnace are clearly not eligible for their spawning. "There's got to be a reason why they're migrating here, and if you know there's life change in Ashhearth, you'll know why they're here for their migration." ”

"Ganquan, it must be Ganquan," Merlin suddenly brightened, the imperial proverb said well, there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, an old monster like Yoda who has lived for many years often gets to the point in one sentence.

Yoda nodded, smiling without saying a word.

"Isn't that right?" Merlin said suspiciously, "If it's because of the sweet springs, why did the salmon last for a week and not be gone, and the salmon migration tide in Alaska will continue until the winter snow falls." ”

"Merlin, you're still too greedy. Yoda said, "The salmon migration tide is bound to attract grizzly bears, and such a large-scale salmon migration is bound to attract demonized grizzly bears, are you ready for the ashburg?"

"Maybe the grizzly bear doesn't know?"

"The beasts of the Great Wasteland can smell blood from two hundred kilometers away, let alone such a large gathering of salmon in the Ashfurnace Valley, don't you see that there are many more vultures in the sky than usual?"

"Is it that serious?" Merlin asked, wryly.

"Of course, the delicious taste at your fingertips will inevitably come with a crisis. ”

Merlin, of course, knows how to harvest when he sees it, although the top and bottom of the ashfurnace castle are full of salmon jerky, but the newly built cold storage has not yet been filled, and it will be difficult to have such a rich meat harvest in the next rainy season.

Merlin searched up the stream in the Valley of the Ashheart. As the population of Ashlur Castle increased, so did the amount of water coming out of the springs, and in addition to the springs used to irrigate the farmland, the flow of water flowing down the stream into the Endless Ocean was much larger than before.

The water level in the waterhole has not changed, it is still clear and lowered, and countless small fish swim in it. In the summer, Merlin also caught a lot of small fish here. The little golden fish fried in an iron pan fascinated Surla. Merlin seems to have forgotten that there was such a thing.

"What's in there?" Merlin stopped at the edge of the waterhole, this time standing alone on the edge of the waterhole, leaving Lance and Yuri far behind, for he was riding his dark unicorn, which was much faster than the horses of Ashforge, and even the mountain roads did not affect them in the slightest, and still felt like a gust of wind.

"Let's see, what's in there!" Merlin was intrigued by two objects at the bottom of the waterhole, and he rolled over and got off the back of the dark unicorn, and then jumped into the waterhole. There were two things at the bottom of the crystal clear pool, and Merlin swore he had never seen anything like this in a pool before.

The waterhole in late autumn, the water temperature and a little coolness, Merlin Valley did not take off his clothes, and a fierce man plunged into the bottom of the water. He saw a sight he would never forget, at the bottom of the waterhole, a griffon with outstretched wings. The griffon's wings shimmered, and the dots of light were like stars in the night sky.

Merlin gently stroked the griffons sinking to the bottom of the pool with his hand, and he felt the joy that came from the depths of their hearts, a kind of toddler's joy at the sight of chocolate, a little shy and a little impatient. Merlin looked at the griffons carefully, and suddenly he realized that the griffon's wings were much fuller than before.

"Did they find a way to grow up? ”

Merlin's speculation was very close to the truth, these days, the salmon migration from the side of the stream made Merlin have no mind to care about anything else, and when he was not looking, the two griffons discovered the secret of the stream, and the two of them sank into the pool. In fact, the disappearance of the salmon is also directly related to the two griffons, who have absorbed the water of life in the sweet springs, making them like ordinary fresh water, thus losing their attraction to the salmon.

Merlin soon discovered the mystery, and he was pleased to find that the two griffons had extracted the water of life from the sweet spring, and absorbed a large part of it for the growth of new feathers, and the rest naturally went into Merlin's hands. The amount was small, only three drops, but Merlin knew how precious it was. After the elves' tree of life disappeared, the water of life in this world was actually out of print, and one drop was used to reduce it.

This liquid of course is invaluable to the pastor of the church. An adventurer's possession of one drop is equivalent to one more life, and as long as one drop, if not fatally damaged, he can immediately come back to life and rejoin the battle.

Merlin realizes that the griffon has purified the water of the fountain and extracted the water of life from it. With this water of life, Merlin's mind became puffy. As a lord, even the Sweet Spring can make such a big change in the Ashhearth, what if you have a complete water of life.

"Maybe the War Ancient Tree can be evolved, so that the guard power of the Ashhearth Castle can definitely rise to a terrifying height, you must know that the Elven Empire is here; In their heyday, their kingdom was guarded by the Ancient Tree of War. Such a force did not even dare to attack the black dragon.

And the key factor in the evolution of the ancient tree of war is the water of life.

Merlin left the griffon in the waterhole, and Yoda was right, the salmon tide was just right for Ashfurnace, and if there were too many, it would cause some unnecessary trouble. Now the strength of the Ashfurnace Castle has improved, but it is not to the extent of being careless. If a few fallen grizzly bears are brought in, the loss of population is inevitable, a phenomenon that Merlin does not want to see.

Merlin is back in the Ashhearth, he needs to put his thoughts in order, and at this time he needs someone who is familiar with this knowledge to give advice, and the best person for this guidance is Barbara, the most talented second-ring spellcaster of the Apocalypse Academy.

"Barbara, are you home?" Merlin stood outside the door and knocked on the white oak door. "Barbara, are you home?"

No one answered, and there was no movement in it.

When Merlin pushed the door open, there was a scream from inside. "Get out, get out of here!"
