Chapter 342: The Temple
Chapter 342
"Where there is no snow in front of you, the exposed ground is red and there is no grass." Luo Qi and Zhou Quan walked slowly towards the depths of the valley, and he noticed that Zhou Quan was also calculating and measuring energy all the way like Du Zhengyi. "Do you know why?"
"Humans have explained this situation because the soil is rich in iron." Zhou Quan said simply.
Luo Qi had a new understanding of Zhou Quan again, "It's rare, ordinary mages don't care about human knowledge. ”
"A lot of mages know these things." Zhou Quan said, "They are just embarrassed to say it." Everyone lives in human society, most of them have televisions, almost everyone has mobile phones and computers, and everyone can know things about watching TV dramas, who wouldn't know? It's just that everyone pretends not to know. ”
"Du Zhengyi has no TV, no mobile phone and no computer." Roach said casually.
"It's conceivable." Zhou Quan grimaced, "He's different from us, he's a mage of mages." ”
"Do you believe that the soil here is rich in iron?" Roach asked suddenly.
"You asked." Zhou Quan smiled and looked at Luo Qi again, as if trying to see the entity behind Luo Qi through the mask that Luo Qi showed him. "It's true that some soil is red because it's rich in iron, but it also contains some rare magical elements that make the soil red, and it can be barren of grass. Ah, as for what kind of magic element it contains, then I don't know. You know I'm in charge of archives, I've seen a lot of things, but I don't know much about it. ”
"It's already awesome."
"Can you tell me why those stupid donkeys are poking their brains at the mouth of the valley?" Zhou Quan looked back at the wild donkeys again. "Where stupid donkeys don't come in, we do, and I don't really like that. The moral of this is not very good-looking. ”
"They're animals." Roach said succinctly, his mind still thinking about something else.
"Huh?" Zhou Quan said, "So it's better than us? ”
"Oh, animals survive on instinct, they can feel a strong consciousness here. I don't know how to explain it to you, but I guess they feel like you feel someone behind you, but you don't see anyone when you look back. So you can't help but go back and watch it. Roach said very blandly.
"Dude, I'm creepy when you say that." Zhou Quan said.
"There's something even creier." Roach muttered, "We're about to get to the line between long grass and no grass, and we'll have to be cautious there." Have you ever heard of the Curse of the Highland Mage? ”
"Oh, I'm in charge of the files."
"Understood, since you know, then I don't have to continue telling ghost stories." Roach said, "Then you don't think there will be that kind of silent curse here, right?" ”
"There can be no curse in this world." Zhou Quan said firmly, "There will be an explanation for everything." ”
"You think so?" Roach blinked a little confusedly, "I used to be the only one who could say this kind of thing. ”
"That's because they're too narrow-minded. Of course, we are mages, not witches in the village who treat people. Zhou Quan said, "The curse is completely superstition. ”
"So you mean the curse doesn't exist? Legend has it that those who are cursed to die don't become liquid and die? Roach asked.
"I didn't say that, the unlucky guy who liquefied must have liquefied. So many shameful masters have witnessed the death process of the mage who was recently cursed to death, and they want to fabricate the cause of death to be more realistic, so that it is not so bizarre. It's so bizarre that it's definitely true. Zhou Quan said.
"You think it's a curse," Rocky said hesitantly.
"It's not superstition, like invisibility, it's some kind of magic?" Zhou Quandi took his words, "That's right, that's what I think." If it's magic, it's certainly not the mountains that are cursing, and it's not the valleys that are cursing. It must be people who can use curses. ”
"But if the highland mages are cursing, they won't deny it." After a few days of career in the Highlands, Luo Qi has basically figured out the laws of the behavior of the Highland mage.
"Maybe it's left by the mages from earlier, and even the highland mages don't know very well." Zhou Quan said.
Roach felt that there was something in his words, that he must know something, but for some reason he was reluctant to say it clearly. "Are you hinting at the Ancestral Mage?"
"Why do you think of those legendary figures? We mages don't keep track of history very much, and there are discrepancies in actual history. The history of mages is very confusing, and anything can happen. Zhou Quan said, the last sentence was cheap.
Luo Qi is not angry, there is a magical soothing mode in Zhou Quan's charm, no matter what he is saying, his tone and demeanor can always make people comfortable. This may be the reason why Zhou Quan is able to do his job, the mage is a group of cats who can't hold a group, and Zhou Quan can walk through them and cage these cats together. In addition, Zhou Quan was also much smarter than he thought earlier.
As they talked, Roach noticed that the terrain had descended and then slowly ascended, and a new landscape was in sight. It was supposed to be their last chance to turn back, after all, there was still danger in moving forward, and curses were always the thing that bothered them the most. After all, before the onset of the curse, no one knew whether they had been tricked or not. But just as they approached the invisible dividing line, Rocky suddenly realized that the keywords red earth and not growing grass were simply not important.
"Am I falling for illusion?" Roach opened his mouth in surprise.
Zhou Quan stared blankly at the mountain wall in the distance, "Aren't you a mind master?" ”
"yes." "But no one has issued me a job certificate." ”
"Have you ever been hallucinated?" Zhou Quan didn't look away.
"I don't think so." Roach said.
"Did Pei Shu ever hallucinate you?"
"Nope." Roach said.
"Then you definitely didn't have illusions." Zhou Quan said.
Roach looked at the majestic stone pillars that stuck to the mountain wall in the distance, the wind and snow had eaten away at some of the columns, but the graceful and majestic lines still retained most of them. The stone pillars are five or six stories high, clinging to the mountain, like a huge gatehouse.
"It doesn't look like a Highland mage is in the style at all. It's like someone else did it, do you think there will be an inscription in the language of the ancient mage on it? Zhou Quan said.
"We're going to have to take a closer look now, right?" Roach said. ”11
