Chapter 83: strange city wall

"Beast!"

Zhang Feng was shocked when he heard Knight Marlowe's words.

Ever since he came to Hongye City, Zhang Feng has heard people say that Hongye City used to be attacked by wild beasts in the Blackstone Forest. If the previous city lord spent a lot of gold coins to build a city wall with black stones in the north of the city, Hongye City would definitely not be there now. so complete.

Although there is now this city wall, the existence of the beast is still a potential danger after all. Zhang Feng has never forgotten it. Now that he heard the information of the beast again, Zhang Feng said with a serious face:

"What is the specific situation?"

Caroline also listened carefully. She came to Hongye City earlier than Zhang Feng, and she was more aware of the harm that beasts could bring.

"This morning, our soldiers found several piles of beast dung under the city wall. Preliminary speculation should be leopards or wolves. There are also traces of claws scratching at the roots of the city wall."

Marlowe replied somewhat cautiously.

"Leopard? Wolf?"

"Yes."

Zhang Feng swallowed Hanako. Although he had seen leopards and wolves in the zoo, he would not naively think that the animals in the zoo are the same as those in the mountains.

Especially wolves, this is in packs. If you find a wolf, it is very likely that there will be a group of wolves nearby!

Knight Marlow is naturally not afraid. After all, he has thick steel armor and a sharp steel sword, but the commoners of Hongye City are different.

Even Zhang Feng himself was a little cowardly.

"It stands to reason that beasts will not come to the site where humans live..."

Zhang Feng frowned. Although he doesn't know much about beasts, he is also a man who has seen the animal world, and he still understands some common sense things.

For example, humans may be afraid of beasts, but beasts are also afraid of humans. Under normal circumstances, beasts will not take the initiative to approach humans, especially in gathering places with many people.

Could it be that the beasts of this world are bold?

Zhang Feng is a little unsure. After all, these are two similar but different worlds, and anything is possible.

"Are the residents of our Red Leaf City in danger?"

"I'm not sure. Although we have a city wall made of black stone, the other three sides are some low earth walls. If the beasts are smarter or there are more numbers, the Red Leaf City is still a little dangerous."

Listening to Marlowe's words, Zhang Feng felt a sense of urgency in his heart, it was time to get the cement out.

The production of industrialized cement is more troublesome, but Zhang Feng still knows about the production of soil cement.

After all, when I was in the orphanage, some potholes in and out of the yard were filled with soil and cement by the dean. Although it was not very beautiful, it was very practical.

Grind limestone and clay into flour, then calcine clinker. Grinding with clinker and **** left after iron making is cement.

What is currently lacking is limestone, and limestone is the trade name of limestone as a mineral raw material. In Bluestar, limestone is widely used due to its wide distribution and easy availability in nature.

Zhang Feng estimated that this world should have limestone.

I heard that there are a lot of stones in the Black Rock Forest. According to the knowledge from previous high school textbooks, Zhang Feng remembers that the limestone area is mostly stone forests and karst caves, and you can see it for yourself.

But now there is a very important question. There may be something you want in Blackrock Forest, but there are also beasts in Blackrock Forest!

Especially since these beasts have already run to the vicinity of Hongye City, is it wrong to go to Blackrock Forest now?

But if we don't go, we won't be able to make cement.

If the city walls are made of stone, it is not impossible, but the human and material resources are too much, and the time is not very abundant.

"Knight Marlowe, if I go to Blackrock Forest now, will it be in danger?"

"what?"

"Can not!"

Marlowe was stunned, and Caroline, who had been silent for a while, stopped her loudly.

Seeing that Marlowe and Zhang Feng were both looking at her, Caroline didn't care about being shy and said quickly:

"There are many beasts in Blackrock Forest. It will be very dangerous if you go there. You forgot Charles... I don't recommend you go to Blackrock Forest yourself!"

The previous city lord, Charles, died in Blackrock Forest. Although Caroline's hands and feet were the reason, it is undeniable that Blackrock Forest is dangerous.

"Yes, Lord City Lord, I think it's better for you to stay in the castle. If you have any orders, just leave it to me!"

Marlowe knocked on his steel armor, making a clanging sound.

Am I being treated as a weak chicken?

Zhang Feng was speechless, but when he thought about it, he seemed to be right. Whether it was Marlowe or Caroline, they were both knights, and their physical fitness was far from what he could compare, let alone fighting skills.

But you can't go if you don't go! There are many things that only he knows, and this is another world after all, in case there is any accidental discovery.

Zhang Feng touched his chin, and then spoke under the concerned eyes of the two.

"I have to go, Knight Marlowe, just find a few soldiers to protect me. Let's just walk around the outskirts of Blackrock Forest, and don't go deep."

"…Yes!"

It is Marlow's duty to propose to the Lord of the City, but when the Lord of the City is determined to execute, Marlow must obey unconditionally, which is also the responsibility.

"Lord Zhang Feng, I want to follow you too!"

Caroline was still a little worried about Zhang Feng. Even with the protection of soldiers and knights, she was still worried. After all, it's not the past, and all the beasts have left the Blackstone Forest. No one knows what's going on in the Blackstone Forest.

"You can not!"

However, Zhang Feng refused without even thinking about it. After all, Caroline worked hard all night yesterday, and she can't be burdened any more. She is Zhang Feng's woman, and Zhang Feng will feel distressed.

"I can!"

However, this time Caroline was not as docile as before. She looked at Zhang Feng firmly.

Zhang Feng also looked at her.

The two of them didn't even look at each other.

Marlow lowered his eyes, as if he hadn't seen it.

After a while.

Facing Caroline, who had pitiful eyes but did not give in at all, Zhang Feng felt helpless. She held Caroline's cold little hand.

"Okay, okay, let's go together!"

Hearing that Zhang Feng agreed, Caroline breathed a sigh of relief, and she quickly assured:

"Master Zhang Feng, I will protect you!"

Zhang Feng pinched his face, smiled and said nothing.

Since the Lord of the City was out and the target was Blackrock Forest, Marlow naturally needed to gather soldiers to prepare, Zhang Feng and Caroline returned to the castle first.

Caroline put on a knight's costume, and a gorgeous silver armor made Caroline look valiant. This style of Caroline made Zhang Feng's eyes shine, and there was a thrill of unlocking new skins.

But now is not the right time to think about those, so Zhang Feng came over and explained in a low voice:

"Caroline, if you are really in danger of life and death, don't worry about me, just run away."

"No-"

As soon as Caroline spoke, she was interrupted by Zhang Feng. He said seriously:

"I said before that if there is a fatal danger, I am 100% sure to escape, don't you believe me?"

"I... I believe in you!"

"That's good, remember my words."

Zhang Feng pinched Caroline's cheek.

"Ok!"

The Knights of Marlow came to the castle again.

"Sir City Lord, the soldiers have been assembled and are lined up at the northern city gate."

"good."

Zhang Feng was wearing a relatively thin suit. It wasn't that he didn't want to wear armor, but that he could wear the armor, but he couldn't walk when he put it on. It was too heavy!

A group of people came to the North City Gate, and a column of fully armed soldiers was waiting.

It was said to be the city gate, but it was not at all atmospheric. It felt that it was not as elegant as the gate of the orphanage, but the black city wall next to it still made Zhang Feng take a few more glances.

"Lord City Lord, this is the trace of the beast scratching last night."

Knight Marlow pointed to a corner of the wall.

Zhang Feng followed Marlowe's gaze and was suddenly stunned.

"what?"
