Chapter 224: Inspection
The next morning, Kaichi woke up from his bed on the ship, having not slept in the camp on the island the previous night and thinking that it was too much trouble to move the futon around.
There is nothing he is not used to sleeping on the boat, and the boat rocks around, just like the cradle. And in his previous life, he often slept on boats when he was a child - at that time, the family raised fish, and they all slept on boats to watch fish.
From the boat to the shore on a small sampan, he was not the only one who lived on the ship like Jiayi, almost all of the sailors lived on the ship, and less than half lived on the shore, mainly because everyone was a little too troublesome to move things.
"Morning!" Kaichi greeted the sleepy-eyed crowd.
"Morning!"
In the morning sound, Jiayi found March, who was sleeping on the shore: "How did you sleep last night?"
March twisted his neck: "It's not too good, it's a little cold on the shore, it's not as warm as on the boat." ”
"Hurry up and eat, let's go to yesterday's cabin again. Kaichi urged.
"You're too rushed, wait for me. ”
"It's because you're too slow, I've practiced all the exercises. I'll go find the others, and call Husley and them to see if there's anything else to discover. ”
Kayi waved his hand, and then went to find Husley.
"Hey, Kaichi, are you here to help us make breakfast?"
Seeing Jiayi, Xiusli, who was about to nibble on bread, lit up and said with a smile.
"!" Jia pouted, "You think so beautifully, your bread is much better than mine, and the academy is too picky, even give us white bread." ”
Husley picked up the white bread again, looked at Kaichi and said, "Would you like to eat the black bread yourself and the white bread later?"
"Of course, of course, let them learn from our hard work, how can they indulge in enjoyment. ”
Now that his traditional period is coming to an end, how can he be willing to cheapen others, thinking about it this way, it is estimated that the tradition of black bread in the college will last forever until black bread is eliminated.
Husley picked up the bread and took a bite and asked, "Did you come to me for something?"
"How do you know I'm here for you?"
Husley looked left and right, he was sitting more sideways, there was no one around but him, and then looked at Jiayi.
"Well, we found a small cabin yesterday, it has been abandoned for a long time, and we want you to go with us to see if we can find anything. ”
Husley swallowed the bread in his mouth and asked, "Is there anything special?"
Kaichi shook his head and said, "Not for the time being, but it doesn't look right, and the port side was opened by someone with a spell, and we found a wooden house here, shouldn't we check it, in case it is an evil mage who has some bad intentions for the academy." ”
Husley shook his head: "Who is not afraid of death dares to attack the academy, and there are no good things in the academy, as for it." It's better not to go over and take a look. ”
For the college, the students who have been taught over the years are the greatest wealth, and there may be a few good things to hide, but as long as the students are still there, the inheritance of the college will not die. Moreover, among the students of the academy, there are also several legendary mages who are alive, as long as someone is not afraid of death, just come and do it.
After everyone had eaten, Husley followed Jia Yi and the others to the front of the cabin, and Paser was supposed to come over, but Husley asked him to search the whole island with a large army, and he felt that if there were any traces left by the mage, he should not be here.
Kaichi took out the parchment he had put away last night and handed it to Husley: "This is what I found last night, but it's moldy, and I can't tell what was written." ”
Husley picked up the parchment, and the musty smell made him frown. His hand shook, a flash of spell light, the mold on it was removed, Jia stretched out his hand, about to say something, only to see Husley pinch a spell gesture in his right hand, a spell was released on the parchment, and a spell aura on the parchment was dyed.
Jia Yi hurriedly probed over, but after the spell, there was nothing.
Kaichi looked up at Husley, waiting for his next move.
"Don't look at it, there is no handwriting on these pieces of paper in the first place, it's white paper, it's not used. Husley pasted the white paper towards Jiayi's face, Jiayi hurriedly flashed, and the paper was thrown away by Husley, scattered with the wind, and the already tattered parchment, after this violent operation, immediately broke completely.
They went into the house and searched again, but still found nothing, until they found two knives, an iron catalpa, and a few things that looked like bowls, and the rest was nothing.
If it weren't for the unfolded quilt and the unlocked door, it would almost look like a person had packed up and walked away.
They also found the kitchen outside, a small cave recessed by the cliff on one side, with cooking ashes in the cave wall, which they didn't notice last night because of the trees.
Husley shook his head and walked out, saying, "Honestly, this is the most valuable thing here, if this walnut tree is still alive." The wood core of a hundred-year-old walnut is the most suitable material for a staff. ”
Trees all have a center that grows outward, the innermost ring part exists for the longest time, and the outermost layer is newly grown, so after hundreds of thousands of years, the heart part of the tree has been transformed into a magic material, even if it is not an innate magic material.
As long as you are old enough, the heart of a normal tree is more effective than a newly grown magic tree.
However, the tree outside the house has long been cut down, and the remaining stumps have no effect because of too long, otherwise it would not be considered useless.
There was nothing of value in the cabin, so they went up the hill to find out what they had found.
They followed the road they had driven up the hill, and heard that the other party had found something, because there were badges to communicate, but it was not difficult to find.
Soon, Jiayi and the others found Pasebai and them, and Pasebai and his two classmates stopped under a big tree, which was at least 6 or 7 meters in circumference. Neither of them may be able to report it. The tree does not lose its leaves, and the rest of the trees are bright and lush in modern times when they are just beginning to grow because of the winter fall.
Jia Yi immediately smiled when he saw it, and said, "You just said that it was a pity for that walnut, but now this one looks bigger, so it's not a loss." ”
"Thinking too much. As soon as Passerbay turned around, although Jiayi's words had no beginning or end, he understood what he meant, "This one is water pine, it is cork, it is useless." ”
Husley continued: "The water pine grows very quickly, and although this tree looks big, it is only 4 or 50 years old at most, which is still far from it. ”
Then he asked, "What are you doing here? Wait for us?"
"It's not. Pasebai stepped out of the way, revealing the contents, "We found a skeleton here, and a small cloth bag. ”
He held up the small cloth bag in his hand to signal, this cloth bag was already a little tattered because of the age, rain insects, and cockroaches, although Passerbai seemed to be carrying it by hand, but in fact, he used the mage's hand to wrap the cloth bag and hold it.
"What's in there?" asked Kaichi curiously.
"I don't know, before I opened it, you guys came. ”
As he spoke, Passerbai gently lowered the cloth bag and opened it carefully, and Husley glanced at it, and went to the side to examine the white bones.
Inside the cloth bag was rotten parchment, and it looked like it had been a long time, and it was full of holes. It is a miracle that these parchments have not been corroded, after all, the wild is damp and there are many insects, perhaps it has undergone enhanced anti-corruption treatment to preserve it for so long.
Passerbai floated up the parchments, which were even more dilapidated than the ones Kaichi had found yesterday, and seemed to fall apart with a single effort, and the handwriting had long since become blurred, and it was impossible to see what was written, and of course it could be the same as the one Kaichi found yesterday, and nothing was written.
A burst of magic flashed on the parchment, and all the smudges on the parchment were disposed of, and the handwriting was revealed, but because there were many defects, I couldn't see anything for a while.
Passerbai copied the words on the parchment with a spell, and the torn parchment was not discarded like Passerbay, but was pressed down with two planks and put away.
He put his things away, turned around and asked Husley, "Did you check out anything?"
