Chapter 496： : The House of Letters, the Lost Age (1/2)

The so-called letter crow house is a stone hut attached to the castle.

Before I walked in, I could smell a scent of poultry manure.

It's just that the smell is dozens of times thinner than that in the griffon's nest.

The hut is just two rows of iron cages, which are padded with straw.

There are about 70 or 80 letter crows in the cage.

This is a clever bird that looks like a good raven.

is the color is different, the letter crow has a pinch of white hair on its beak and neck.

They have a good sense of direction and can withstand long journeys.

The abdomen is full and firm, full of muscles.

These muscles are the secret of their ability to fly long distances.

When the energy is exhausted and there is no food supplement, they will break down muscles.

In this world, they are equivalent to homing pigeons.

Every state city and even some villages have letter houses.

But in fact, they are not very useful in Bangcheng.

In an emergency, Bangcheng has a more convenient way to send messages.

can be quickly transmitted to a huge city thousands of kilometers away in a short period of time.

It would be too slow if you rely on the crow.

But this still does not hinder the existence of the letter crow.

There is no grass on the ground near here.

Every few steps, there is a tuft of white bird droppings.

I don’t know if it’s because of shading or bird droppings that no grass grows here.

Zongshen walked quickly to the door, reached out and knocked on the metal iron door.

”Clang!”

”Please come in!”

The voice of Baron Bezos came from it.

Zongshen also unceremoniously pushed the iron door open.

When he walked into the cabin, he saw Baron Bezos writing something at his desk.

There is an elderly man standing beside him in a gray-brown cloth robe.

There is also a slight smell of bird droppings in the hut, but it is not obvious.

”Master Bezos!”

Seeing that the other party was writing intently, Zong Shen took the initiative to say hello.

Only then did Baron Bezos have time to raise his head.

”Brother Zong, you are here!”

He got up quickly and greeted him warmly.

The old man in the cloth robe didn't say a word, but just stood on the side very sensibly.

”Master Bezos, I am here this time for the remains of the lion knights you mentioned before.”

”I brought the elite warriors in the territory, and a big griffin. They are standing by outside the city.”

Zongshen said with a smile.

For him, this trip to Bosbon didn't have too many plans, it was purely to explore the ruins.

”I will tell the Bangcheng Army to take someone to pick it up.”

”Why didn't Brother Zong come here on a wild boar this time?”

Baron Bezos smiled and patted Zong Shen on the shoulder, pretending to ask casually.

Zongshen reacted in an instant.

There is no change in his expression, and he still maintains his previous smile.

”Master Bezos joked.”

”How can wild boars have the speed of griffins.”

”And adults should know that I am adjacent to the mountain.”

”There are not many others, there are really a lot of wild boars and prairie wolves.”

”Including the great griffin that rode this time was also caught from the forest.”

Zong Shen said with a smile, and Baron Bezos nodded slightly.

”That's right, compared to the griffon, wild boars are not rare.”

”Brother Zong has to wait for me for a while.”

”The report essay at hand is about to be finished.”

Baron Bezos said and sat back in his seat, picked up the quill pen and re-dipped the ink and started writing.

he explained while writing.

”Bangcheng consul needs to write a report once a month.”

”Report the development of Bangcheng to Giant City.”

”The ancient way of passing information through the letter crow.”

”Of course we also have more advanced methods.”

”But it is not available in daily life.”

Zongshen didn't say much, and nodded silently.

Baron Bezos also stopped speaking, and began to work hard.

About ten minutes later, he filled the entire page.

Carefully unfold the paper sheet, dry the ink on it, and then roll it up after making sure that the handwriting is not smeared.

There is a candlestick on the desk with a metal iron spoon hung on it, in which some red viscous varnish glue is burnt.

Baron Bezos rolled the paper and carefully poured an appropriate amount of varnish on the sealing area. After it cooled a little bit, he picked up the metal stamp on the side and pressed it on the varnish, leaving behind An imprint.

then handed the sealed scroll to the gray-robed old man aside.

The old man took the scroll and bowed slightly, and then left the hut.

was in a state of taciturn all the time.

After dealing with the matter at hand, Baron Bezos got up in relief.

He took the initiative to stand up and left the letter crow house with Zong Shen in his arms.

When they left, they happened to see the old man stuffing the paper roll in the letterbox on the leg of the letter crow.

Throwing both hands, he let the letter crow fly out.

Baron Bezos took Zong Shen to the front of the castle.

He waved to a housekeeper and asked her to inform the Bangcheng army that he would take the light cavalry on patrol to look for the soldiers and the Great Griffin brought by Zong Shen outside Bosbon.

Zongshen was also relieved of this, and followed Baron Bezos into the castle.

It's just the afternoon, and it's just time to prepare a grand banquet.

After watching Baron Bezos lightly give orders one after another.

The two of them walked straight up the stairs.

The dinner party takes time to prepare, and the soldiers and Yingjiang also need time to take in.

Taking advantage of this effort, Baron Bezos is going to take Zong Shen to the study to talk.

Discuss about the exploration of the remains of the lion knights.

related information has long been sorted out.

Now only need to take out the corresponding atlas and information.

Zongshen didn't care about this, but on the surface he still had to deal with it.

He has a strategy module, what clues and information he wants and can't get it?

It is not impossible to make real-time remarks in the form of gold label reminders in the strategy module.

When they entered the study, Baron Bezos let Zong Shen sit in the guest seat first.

He walked to the bookcase himself, and picked them out on the cabinets full of pages.

After five or six minutes, he found all the information he needed.

put all these materials and atlas on the desktop.

Now he was sitting on the main seat, facing Zong Shen.

He took the lead in taking out an atlas, spread it on the table, and turned it 180 degrees.

So that two people can study the atlas together with their sides.

Baron Bezos took out a long ruler about thirty centimeters long and began to make gestures.

”This is where the remains of the lion knights are.”

”It's about 500 kilometers northwest of Bosbang.”

”You need to pass through the mountains during the period.”

Between 　　, Baron Bezos pointed and drew a straight line at two points with a long ruler.

This Zong Shen nodded very cooperatively and repeatedly said yes.

Although I feel a little impatient, his expression is still full marks.

Anyhow, this time it was also Baron Bezos as the leader, even if he really didn't have any interest in the information, he couldn't just show it.

Because he didn't bring much manpower when he came to Bosbon this time, plus he himself only had thirteen or four people.

At this point, the manpower can barely be regarded as a small team level.

He was counting on letting Baron Bezos bring more people over.

After confirming the location, Baron Bezos sat back in his original position, and took out a copy of the bound information, and began to seriously summarize it.

”The remains of the garrison of the lion knights belong to the silver lion legion, one of the three legions.”

”The commander of the legion was Richardson, one of the three great silver lion knights.”

”I went missing in the final battle of Azshara, he should have been killed.”

The information obtained by Baron Bezos also comes from some ancient books.

, after all, is the past 17,000 years ago.

There are still a lot of unidentified information lost. It is already a great thing to be able to obtain this information.

Just when he paused to turn the page, Zong Shen gently raised his hand.

”Master Bezos, take the liberty to interrupt you.”

”I have a question.”
