Chapter 1014: A Town with Roses
"Before I question me, I want to ask you, what is the most important thing about us in Salt Lake Town?" the mayor ignored the voices of the men, and asked in a deep voice, "What is the most precious thing about our town?"
The mayor's voice echoed across the salt lake for a long time, and the townspeople all looked at each other, as if they knew the answer to their question, but they didn't know whether to say it or not.
"It's okay, it's not a special secret now. The mayor said: "The world has changed, and people's attitudes towards monsters are not the same as before, and the secrets of our town will be known to everyone sooner or later." Rather than covering it up like this, it's better to say it happily. ”
"However, this is the rule set by the previous mayors, and those who leak secrets must take a salt bath. ”
"Yes, I want to take a salt bath!"
The townspeople talked a lot, and they didn't dare to say half a word.
"As the new mayor of the town, I declare that this secret does not need to be kept secret, and there is no need to take a salt bath to tell it now!" the mayor covered his abdomen with his hands, and the sharp pain made him gasp slightly, but the sealman still stood on the edge of the salt lake despite the pain.
His eyes were blazing, the glow of the morning sun flickering in his eyes, and he seemed to have made up his mind to reveal the secrets of Salt Lake Town.
"No, Mayor, it's absolutely not. The mayor's deputy, the dog man who looked about the same as the Akita dog seemed to be in a hurry, and he approached the mayor and whispered, "You can't break the rules, this secret is a magic weapon for our town's survival." ”
"Now that the White Eagle is ready to take back the autonomy of our town, the next step is to directly occupy the salt lake. Do you think there's any point in keeping this secret, are you planning to keep it a secret for White Eagle?"
"This... The deputy looked at the mayor and finally shook his head helplessly: "I'm afraid that they will learn the truth and threaten us." ”
"If you want to threaten, just come. The mayor smiled slightly: "If they want to change their strategy for their homeland from us, then come as well." ”
When the deputy heard this, he was even more speechless, he took half a step back, lowered his head and seemed to think about something.
"Guys, what's the most important thing for us in Salt Lake Town?" the mayor asked.
。。。。。。
However, the townspeople still didn't dare to speak, and the mayor laughed when he saw this, although the laughter made him cough a few times, but he still stretched out his hand and pointed to the whale salamander behind him, which had been dead for a long time, and said: "The salt mining season is about to begin, and it is about to grow!
"Yes ... Salt of roses. Just when everyone still didn't dare to speak, a small subhuman finally mustered up the courage to shout: "It's the salt of roses." ”
"Salt of Roses!"
"It's the salt of roses!" the townspeople finally shouted out when they saw the child, and the mayor and his guards did not mean to punish the child, so they finally shouted out the most important thing in the town.
Huo Chi looked at the mayor of the town suspiciously, the rose salt is very important to the town, this doesn't seem to be a secret, right? Even he, a passing expedition member, knows something, why don't the townspeople dare to say it?
"Rose Salt, of course!" the Mayor nodded with satisfaction, "We have lived on this land for hundreds of years, and the Rose Salt blooms every year. But now, the White Eagle wants to take this treasure of the salt lake away, can we agree?"
"No! the salt of roses is ours! not White Eagle's. "The emotions of the people are getting excited.
"Yes, this was originally a barren salt flat, although there was table salt to be mined, but there was no rose salt, this treasure was made by us, not by the land itself. The salt of roses condenses the wisdom of our ancestors, how can the wisdom of our ancestors be easily given to people?!" The mayor's voice gradually rose up.
The more Huo Chi listened, the more confused he became, how could the rose salt be made by him? Didn't he say that the rose salt was a natural crystalline salt?
"That's right! This is the wisdom of our ancestors!
"The White Eagle has coveted our Rose Salt for a long time, and now that they have accelerated the pace of reclaiming their autonomy, I, the mayor, may not be in office for long. Mayor Mare laughed, "Since we can't mine the salt of roses, we can't let them get it." ”
"Yes, we can't let them get it!" the townsfolk became even more agitated.
"So, I would like to announce to you that the secret of the Rose Salt is now lifted, and everyone can know how the Rose Salt is produced. The mayor turned slightly and looked at the whale salamander's carcass again: "The sun is about to rise, and the salt of roses is about to bloom." ”
"Secretly, you know what's going on, tell me. A traveler who had already passed by heard the mayor's words, and couldn't help but ask the townspeople around him curiously.
"This... The townspeople were still a little hesitant, and he was still a little uncomfortable with this secret that had been kept for many years once the ban was lifted.
"Behold, under the rising sun, the salt of roses has begun to grow!" the mayor ignored the crowd of arguments, and slowly approached the whale salamander step by step.
In the crisp morning air, under the brilliant light of the morning sun, the area around the whale salamander's body, where its blood flowed, began to gradually grow pale pink salt crystals.
Huo Chi looked at the salt crystals around the whale salamander in surprise, this is really incredible, the crystallization speed of ordinary salt is very slow, even under artificial conditions, crystallization will not grow at this speed.
However, the salt of roses here is growing at a speed that is visible to the naked eye!
On the blood-stained salt lake of the whale salamander, the pink crystalline salt gradually rises and separates into branches, and it doesn't take long for small "flower bones" to begin to form at the ends of the branches.
The flower bones gradually swelled, and suddenly, these pink flower bones bloomed, forming small "roses" one by one!
Huo Chi suddenly realized that this is the salt of roses, this is the secret of Salt Lake Town. No wonder they don't want to say it, and they don't dare to say it, this is because the so-called rose salt actually blooms from the blood of monsters!
"Mr. Huo Chi, did you see it?" The mayor turned his head and looked at Huo Chi and said, "This is the secret of our town, this is how the rose salt came from, do you still want to eat it when you see such a rose salt?"
"Well, I want to eat it even more. Huo Chi nodded, isn't it just a salt crystal that grows by infiltrating the blood of monsters? He has eaten countless monster meat, what is the salt formed by this monster blood, just eat it.
