Chapter 84 Blackstone Forest

"Huh? Why does it look familiar?"

Zhang Feng went to the base of the wall and squatted down, and Caroline hurriedly followed. Her task today was to protect Zhang Feng and not leave even a single step.

Zhang Feng touched those claw marks, showing a puzzled expression.

"Master Zhang Feng, did you find something?"

"Um."

Zhang Feng hummed, and then stroked the claw mark carefully. On the black mark, there was a slight coolness from the fingertips.

"This stone is called a black stone?"

Zhang Feng asked suddenly.

"Yes, this is the Black Stone."

Marlowe affirmed.

"Can you dig it out?"

Zhang Feng pointed to the black stone with several claw marks.

Marlowe and Caroline looked at each other.

"Master Zhang Feng, it is not impossible to dig out this piece of black stone, but it may affect the stability of this section of the city wall after it is dug out."

Hearing Marlowe's words, Zhang Feng was a little embarrassed. He forgot that this stone was at the bottom of the city wall, and he would have to move his whole body if he pulled it.

"Are there any other black stones? I mean, you can bring them to me."

Marlowe beckoned, and a soldier trotted over. Marlowe explained a few words to him, and the soldier left in a hurry. Not long after, the soldier came with a big wooden basket.

There are several gray stones that are not too big in the wooden basket, which are "black stones".

Zhang Feng took a look at it, and then handed it to Marlowe.

"Crush him."

"Yes."

Marlowe never asked why, he picked up the spear in the soldier's hand, then put the black stone on the ground, and found a piece of cloth to wrap the black stone.

Marlow threw out his spear without any fancy, and directly hit the black stone hard. With a bang, the black stone shattered, but because it was covered with a cloth, the debris did not splash onto Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng lifted the rag with some anticipation, but what was exposed was only a pile of gray stone scum.

"No?"

Zhang Feng was a little puzzled, and he glanced at the big black stone at the base of the wall again, feeling a little unwilling.

"Crush the rest too."

"Yes."

boom! boom! boom!

They were still ordinary rocks and slags, Zhang Feng doubted himself a little.

Is it wrong?

Zhang Feng lay at the base of the wall again, looking at the large claw marks scratched by a wolf or a leopard.

However, due to the angle, without the direct sunlight, Zhang Feng could not see clearly. He could only see something black under the claw mark, but Zhang Feng always felt that it should not be black, but dark green.

Regarding Zhang Feng's somewhat indecent action, Marlowe Knight and Caroline naturally pretended not to see it, and the surrounding soldiers also tacitly turned their backs to Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng turned his head and looked around, seeing that no one was looking at him, his thoughts suddenly moved.

In his slender palm, a small flashlight with the thickness of a thumb appeared. It was something Zhang Feng had prepared in Blue Star before.

Turn on the flashlight and hold it on the claw mark. Immediately, a brilliant and deep dark green color emerges from the claw mark.

Exquisite and clear, verdant and verdant.

"Huh~"

Zhang Feng's heartbeat was a little fast. He took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, then put away the small flashlight, and said to Marlowe Knight with a serious face:

"Do you know where these 'black stones' were transported from when the city wall was built? Don't say it's in the Black Stone Forest. What I need is the specific location!"

Hearing Zhang Feng's words, Knight Marlowe didn't dare to be negligent. He recalled carefully that when the previous city lord was in office, he lived in seclusion in Hongye City. At that time, because he didn't have many gold coins in his hand, in order not to reveal his identity, Marlowe had carried stones. part-time job, when building this city wall,

He is there.

"It should be in the west of the Blackstone Forest, in a rock pit."

"Let's go there first today!"

Zhang Feng immediately gave the order, and he couldn't wait.

"Yes!"

Marlowe said yes respectfully.

"By the way, are there any remaining stones from which the city wall was built?"

"This... should be gone. When the stones were moved back then, they were all about the same size. After all, it is not easy to go back and forth. The number of stones needed is calculated in advance..."

Listening to Marlowe's explanation, Zhang Feng nodded.

But he was still a little unwilling, and even a little ready to move, because according to his guess, this is not a black stone at all, but a rough emerald stone!

In other words, it is something similar to rough jadeite.

After all, this is a different world, Zhang Feng was not sure, so he called it Emerald for the time being.

According to the experience on Blue Star, the rough jade stones are all in the jade mine, and there is no jade in the other "black stones", but the "black stone" in this city wall has emeralds. It is very likely that the stone pit that built this city wall is An emerald mine!

Looking at this not very tall city wall again, Zhang Feng felt a little complicated. This is probably a city wall built with emeralds!

Needless to say the value of jadeite, cheap ones are very cheap, but expensive ones are also very expensive, even outrageously expensive, who knows if there are any precious jadeites in such a long city wall!

If this city wall were to see the light of day again, the scene would be so beautiful that Zhang Feng couldn't even imagine it.

"Huh~"

After all, Zhang Feng is still sensible. Although he has the urge to tear down the wall to see how many jadeites are inside, he knows that if this is such a sand sculpture, his Hongye City will not be far from being finished.

"Set off!"

Zhang Feng turned his head away from looking at the black stone city wall, out of sight and out of mind.

"Yes!"

Marlowe Knight didn't know Zhang Feng's inner struggle. With a wave of his hand, twenty soldiers stood up neatly. They were wearing armor and holding spears. It's also very good, after all, Zhang Feng is still very willing to spend gold coins in this regard.

But looking at the three tall horses brought by Marlowe, Zhang Feng was a little dazed.

"My lord, please get on your horse!"

Looking at Marlowe who was leading the horse in front of him, and Caroline standing aside, Zhang Feng said with some embarrassment:

"Would you believe me if I said that I don't know how to ride a horse?"

Marlowe: "..."

Caroline: "..."

Nobles can't ride horses?

Although it sounded unbelievable, it surprised the two of them. After all, this is a compulsory course for nobles, but there is no need for Zhang Feng to lie to himself, and the two chose to believe him.

"How about taking a carriage, Lord City Lord? But the road in the Blackstone Forest is not easy to walk. If you take a carriage, it will be slower. In addition, we originally had two carriages in Hongye City. One broke down before, and the other was very slow." It is old, and the ride experience is probably not very good.”

Listening to Marlowe's words, Zhang Feng shook his head. He knew the name of the Black Stone Forest. It must be a place full of rocks. The horse-drawn carriage is probably not very easy to use, so it is better to ride a horse.

But he can't ride...

"Master Zhang Feng, why don't we ride together? Or you and the Marlowe knight?"

Caroline spoke suddenly.

Zhang Feng turned his head to look at the heroic Caroline, and then at the unshaven Marlowe. Zhang Feng really chose the former.

Caroline got on the horse first, and after Zhang Feng handed it over, she lifted it vigorously.

"Hiss~"

Before Zhang Feng could react, he was hugged by Caroline.

Zhang Feng was a little ashamed by the sudden posture of this little bird, he looked at Caroline and whispered:

"Can we switch places, you in the front and I in the back?"
