Chapter 38
The blue lake is like a sapphire inlaid on the earth, and there are many beasts drinking water by the lake.

Huge wildebeests with branches on their heads were in groups, and ferocious lions lay lazily on the ground, without looking at other wild animals.

Sika deer, crocodiles, wild boars and other wild animals live in peace.

Lin En and the others hid behind the trees and looked at the situation of the lake. He was a little surprised to see so many animals gathered by the lake.

What surprised me was not the number and types of animals, but that they did not hunt.

The animals by the lake are the relationship between many hunters and the captured, especially beasts like lions, who have no intention of hunting at all.

Such a harmonious scene is as weird as it needs to be.

Old Tom whispered: "My lord, there are so many beasts, let's stop exploring downstream."

"Yeah!" Lynn nodded, he felt something was wrong.

After looking at it for a while, but found nothing, Lynn said, "Let's go!"

The two returned to the middle reaches of the river and explained the situation downstream. The serfs no longer approached the downstream, but went to the upstream.

The upper reaches of the river were unexpectedly far away. After walking for an hour, they saw the towering mountains. The mountain springs flowed down from the mountains and fell into the pool.

The area of ​​the pool was not large, and the water was crystal clear. The serfs tasted it and found that it tasted sweet and excellent, more than twice as strong as the water they drank.

Lin En also tasted it, and it tasted good, but it was a pity that they didn't carry a container, so they couldn't take it away, and it was too far away, and it took a lot of time to transport water back and forth, so there was no way to provide them with drinking.

Lin En looked around carefully, but he didn't see any trace of Raf and the others. He had no choice but to leave here.

But, anyway, he was sure of one thing, the secret that Raff was hiding was extraordinary.

Lynn told Little Tom to carry on with his orders, be careful not to be found.

As night fell, the energetic little Tom was hiding in the messy garbage. In the afternoon, he discussed with his father and deliberately changed his work and rest habits, sleeping during the day and monitoring at night, in order to complete the task assigned by the lord.

Little Tom also cheered himself up and kept reminding himself that he would no longer be distracted by external factors.

In the middle of the night, there was a sound of opening the door, and the barrel-like Raff went out and walked away quickly.

Little Tom got out of the garbage and followed behind the opponent.

It was the same path again, this time little Tom was not attracted by the scattered creatures, and followed Raff closely.

When they came to the river, Little Tom found that Raff stopped suddenly, and seemed to notice the traces around him.

Raff paused for a while, and headed downstream. Little Tom wanted to continue to follow, but suddenly remembered the lord's reminder, don't follow too hard. If the other party shows any unusual behavior, immediately stop following and return to the castle .

After thinking about it, Little Tom still decided to obey the lord's words and chose to return.

Not long after, Raff jumped down from the tree and saw that no one was coming, with a puzzled expression on his face, he muttered, "It's strange, no one followed, so how did these footprints come here?"

He acted cautiously, coupled with the fact that there must be no accidents in his planning, he hesitated for a moment, and chose to go home.

Raff kept pacing the room when there was a knock on the door.

"Who?"

"Sir, it's me."

Ferrari came in and asked suspiciously, "My lord, why didn't you go there today?"

Raff shook his head, "I feel something is wrong. When I passed by at night, I found a lot of footprints on both sides of the river."

"You mean someone has discovered our secret?"

"It's hard to say, but you still have to be careful. There are many footprints, but they are different. Obviously, many people have stayed there for a while. Go and investigate and see who passed by during the day."

"it is good!"

Ferrari turned and left.

I don't know why, but Raff always feels uneasy in his heart. That is his biggest secret. It is precisely because of this that he came to Ashes Town to become the mayor. He has been destroying the seal for the past few years. However, the seal is too strong and it took several years. Time is finally about to succeed.

But first, the earl arranged for a noble young master to come here to be the lord, and then there was a problem of damage to the crystal ball, which slowed down the speed of breaking the seal and had to be delayed.

He was a little suspicious now, whether the earl knew something to let his son come over.

It's just that after the lord came, what he did was to deal with the land, issued some decrees that did not allow the spilling of dirt anywhere, and built toilets and other useless things.

To Raff, these things were nothing. In his opinion, it was just that the lord wanted to do something to show the earl, and then leave this remote and backward town of Ashes as soon as possible.

Time passed slowly.

When the morning sun fell on the ground, Ferrari came back.

"My lord, I went to investigate. The lord was worried about whether the heavy rain two days ago would destroy the arrowhead mushroom. He took the serf over there to check, and explored the surroundings by the way. He heard the sound of water, and found a river in the past.

They looked downstream and found the wild beasts there. The lord strictly forbade the serfs from approaching to avoid being attacked by wild beasts. As for going upstream, they just wanted to see the source of the river, but they didn't find the seal. "

"That's it." Raff breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said coldly, "A noble young master, he just stays in his own castle honestly, why does he have to run around, but as long as we don't find it, we will come back later." Be careful in the past."

"My lord, do you want to attract monsters like last time?"

"For the time being, monsters are uncontrollable. What if the lord is killed? Although he is only a nobleman, a nobleman who dies here will definitely attract the earl's attention. Send knights to investigate, and maybe he will find the sealed place , now we just need to break the seal with peace of mind."

Raff rejected Ferrari's proposal. The last thing was just to make his plan more perfect, and there is no need to repeat it now.

In the castle, Lynn heard what Little Tom said, and said, "You did a good job, and you don't have to follow up anymore. This is your reward."

He took out two copper coins.

Seeing this, little Tom shook his head again and again, "No, my lord, it's my honor to do things for you, please don't do this."

Lin En stuffed the copper coin into his hand without any explanation, "Since the task is completed, there should be a reward, don't say anything else."

Little Tom had no choice but to accept it, thinking of giving the copper coin to his father.
