Dawn of the Grey Tower

Chapter 235: Ready and mason

Playing the grass and frightening snake, how to be the grass frightening snake? If the purpose is to call out the grass in front of you to drive away the snakes that might exist, then it should indeed be called a grass frightened snake, but what if it is the other way around? Just like fishing, throwing the active bait in front of the fish, shaking the blade of grass gently, as if the small animal passed by unpreparedly. Then it is not called playing grass to startle the snake, but to lead the snake out of the hole.

But a snake is no better than a fish. A fish is always looking for food, and it is always looking for life-sustaining bait. Even if its life is always in this search and is in danger, it does not care. Because there is no food, it will die. There is no such thing as sluggishness in the fish world. Most creatures don't actually understand sluggishness. This is a privilege that only the creatures in society can enjoy. Snakes are not slack, though, they always seem to hesitate, always wait, always wait and see, but if you have seen the snake stretch its head and bite its prey, you will understand that the previous ones are not slack, and Is ready. Necessary preparation.

"We dredge this waterway almost every year, you don't need to follow it at all. My people are familiar with it as if they are familiar with their backyard." Instead of holding a logging axe in his hand, Banyan used a shovel belt. A bit of annoyed words complained to the cheese. Obviously, as a big worker, he felt that the people in Jiefa Town had both experience and ability to deal with the river, without the help of outsiders.

The mage shrugged. Instead of wearing the standard gray robe, he got a white coat from the town that looked like a clerical worker, with a brown waistcoat outside. This is mainly to prevent the river monster from having an impression on the clothes. As for his face or hair color, he is not very worried. Just as humans cannot distinguish the differences between monkeys, it is difficult for mountain monsters to distinguish between individual differences. Do n’t mind, I ’m just here to confirm whether it ’s safe here. And to provide some suggestions on construction to make the construction time faster. And, as you said, you are dredging the river every year, is n’t it too frequent? It may be awkward to say this. After all, in your eyes I am a wizard from outside, but if I want to, I can be a stonemason without relying on magic. "

"Humph, your tongue is slippery." Ban Yang snorted and looked at the cheese up and down. The latter was drawing something on the cloth with a charcoal pen. Da Gong shrugged his nose, "Can you really be a stonemason?"

The cheese glanced at him just like a smile, "You dig a drain next to the river channel to divert the water blocked here. I will give you the drawing before noon."

"Mason, is it great?" Atta, who was on the side, heard the conversation between the two and asked Jian Qi. Although the female swordsman herself has traveled many places, she has not thoroughly understood the human society. She has her own views on human relations and human nature, because contact with people is inevitable. But she is less clear about the status of a profession in society.

In comparison, Jian Qi, who has worked in many places and is good at communicating with people, can understand this. He nodded and said, "Mason, should be said to be the most noble craftsman in this society. You think those cities, Can castles and walls be built by ordinary people? Stones and stone barriers together can't form a solid wall, let alone how to quarry stone, how to cut stone, how to calculate the load bearing of the building, and other various effects are simply deadly Workmanship. Only the mason, only they understand this. They understand the nature of the material to distinguish the stone; master the closed technology to process the stone; and the most important thing is that they are different from other craftsmen. They know mathematics. They can calculate, they can measure, they can draw. Good masonry will be treated as a national treasure. "

Atta frowned subconsciously. She did n’t quite believe that the stonemason was as mysterious as the sword seeker said. Because of the reason, the work of the carpenter and the stonemason was similar. It ’s just that the materials handled were different, but I did n’t hear of any. Carpenters can get such a high status. At this time, the cheese happened to bid farewell to Dagong temporarily, and walked farther to observe the landscape of the Xiakou, and heard this conversation.

The mage did not raise his head while drawing, while talking, "The essence of the stonemason is not that great. But in this society, there is really no other artisan who can match the status of the stonemason. The reason is very simple, the carpenter can build a home, the blacksmith can make Equipment, and stonemason, stonemason can build castles and fortresses. No matter how good a blacksmith is, the weapon created can only arm a person, but a castle, a fortress, can be like a nail, it can stand in the war. Become a whole army and even the kingdom. So the status of the stonemason can be said to come entirely from war. Before people did not find a way to make the castle worthless, the stonemason was the artisan of war. Nothing is better than war. Has it been recognized and seized by the secular society? "

"Ah, of course, I'm not interested in war. I'm not very keen on the construction of the walled city." It seems that for the sake of self-evidence, the cheese specifically added a sentence after explaining the origin of the stonemason's status.

"Is there anything we can do to help?" Jian Qi walked to the mage's side. Although he was born from a family of sword-smiths, he knew nothing about architecture. It's inevitable that interlaces are like mountains.

"Yes, you and Atta also have that cat, everyone has tasks to complete. Your task may be particularly heavy, so I must ask you again ~ www.readwn.com ~ What you said before, seriously ?"

The sword seeker raised his eyebrows. He knew that what the mage said was what they said to themselves and the cheese after reaching an agreement with the townspeople. "People can lie. But you have to be honest about some things. For me , This is the case, you do n’t need to doubt. I wo n’t lie, nor will my ancestors in Jianmen lie about it. ”

"I understand what you mean. It's just that it hasn't been verified after all, so it's inevitable that it is disturbing. In other words, do you dare to say that you are completely sure? Your proposal will be our highest priority, but still To prepare alternatives. This is not to doubt you, just to be foolproof. So the trap still has to ask you to do it. Can you? "The cheese stopped the pen and said seriously.

Jian Qi hesitated and agreed with the mage's opinion. "Got it, it really has to do with the life of the whole town. It's sloppy. It was too simple. I just thought about it. Let me get the trap."

After talking, he turned and left. Atta looked at Jian Qi's back, her keen sense of hearing made her hear the beginning and end of the conversation. Just when the female swordsman wanted to ask the cheese, what was the idea of ​​the sword seven, she heard the mage sigh a little, "The life of the whole town? No, not comprehensive, at least one has fallen. . "
