Zhao Hai and Merlin both stared blankly at the valley. After coming out of the cave, they entered the valley. The area of the valley was not very large, only about a thousand acres or so. There was also a piece of black soil above it, which was exactly the same as the black soil in the Black Waste.
In the middle of the valley, there was a pool of water about ten meters in diameter. The water in the pool was clear and bright. On the mountain wall opposite the cave that Zhao Hai and the others came out from, there was another cave entrance. That cave entrance was smaller than the cave entrance that Zhao Hai and the others were in. It could be seen that the cave entrance was also a mine tunnel.
As soon as he saw these mines, Zhao Hai could not help but admire the dwarves. They really dug out such a large mountain range and built so many mines. How much work did this require? It was hard to imagine how they did it.
Zhao Hai looked around and nodded. "It's really not bad. Blockhead, you're good. Tell me, how did you find this cave?"
Blockhead laughed and said, "Young Master, when I first saw this valley, I jumped down from the cliff. Then, I found these two caves. The other cave was full of water and there was no way out. This cave has a way out, so I went out from the inside."
Zhao Hai nodded. He understood when Blockhead said so. This guy went out from the inside of the cave. No wonder he could find the cave that led to the outside.
Merlin was also sizing up the black soil. Just as Blockhead had said, this place was really suitable. Although it would take some time to improve the soil, this valley was really suitable for growing things. It would be difficult for ordinary people to discover it.
Merlin walked around the cave. This cave was an irregular circle. There were no big stones or the like inside. Other than the black soil, there was only the pool. It was a good place for farming.
Zhao Hai was also looking here. He nodded as he looked. He was really satisfied with this place. Not only could it be farmed, but because of the pool, even irrigation was a lot easier. Even if the water in the pool was not enough, there were two mountain lakes in the caves on both sides. There was water in them.
Blockhead looked at Zhao Hai nodding and knew that Zhao Hai was very satisfied. Blockhead quickly said, "Young Master, did you find something different here?"
Zhao Hai was stunned. He looked around and did not find anything different. He shook his head and said, "There's nothing different."
Blockhead smiled and said, "Young Master, didn't you feel it? The temperature in this valley is higher than on the mountain. Also, look at the grass growing on the mountain walls. It's longer than outside. It's spring now. Although the grass has grown, it's not tall. When we came here, we felt that it was difficult to walk because the ground was full of dry grass. The dry grass is tough, so it tripped our feet. However, the grass on the mountain walls of this valley is new and has grown so long. Many of them have already borne seeds. This means that this valley has not been attacked by the cold wind and has been maintained at this temperature. If this is really the case, then this place can be farmed all year round. It's really a good place. "
Zhao Hai looked at the direction that Blockhead was pointing at. He found that there were a lot of weeds growing on the mountain walls. These weeds were really different from the ones outside. The weeds outside looked green, but when you get closer, you would find that the green was actually new grass growing from under the withered grass. Moreover, the growth wasn't very long. However, the weeds here were very long.
Zhao Hai couldn't help but nod. He also felt that it was strange. This valley was on the mountain, so the soil here should be similar to the soil on the mountain. It shouldn't be the black soil outside. However, the soil in this valley was the same as the soil in the Black Wasteland. He didn't know what was going on.
At this time, Merlin's voice suddenly sounded. "Well said. I didn't expect that a kid like Blockhead would be so observant. When did you become so smart?"
When Merlin said this, Zhao Hai and Blockhead were stunned. When Merlin said this, Zhao Hai also felt a little strange. This was because in his memory, Blockhead wasn't so smart. Not only was he not so smart, he was also a little stupid. Usually, he couldn't even speak clearly. How could he observe so carefully and speak so logically?
Blockhead was also somewhat puzzled. He didn't know what was going on. Ever since he entered Zhao Hai's strange space, he seemed to have been enlightened. He observed things more carefully and thought more comprehensively.
It was just that Blockhead didn't have any opportunity to show off. He was always by Zhao Hai's side and listened to everything Zhao Hai said. Therefore, Merlin and the others didn't notice anything unusual about Blockhead. Today, when Blockhead opened his mouth, Merlin felt that Blockhead was different.
Merlin just said it casually and didn't take it seriously. Seeing that the two didn't say anything, she continued, "Young Master, this is really a good place. Moreover, I can feel that this place is like what Blockhead said. I'm afraid that this place will maintain this temperature all year round. Moreover, the water elements in the air are very active. It's really a good place. As long as the soil is transformed, this place will be the best place to cultivate."
Zhao Hai nodded and said to Merlin, "Grandma Merlin, why do you think the soil in this valley is also black soil? Logically speaking, the soil on this mountain should be the same as the soil on the mountain. If it is the same as the soil on the mountain, then we can save a lot of trouble. "
Merlin smiled and said, "Young Master, don't be greedy. Being able to find such a place is already very good. Young Master can slowly transform it. As long as we find the place, there's nothing to be afraid of."
Zhao smiled. "Grandma Merlin is right, I'm a bit too greedy. This is a good place, but there is still a problem. There are more than a thousand acres of land here, and we don't have any spirit beasts to farm. If we want to plant, we can only rely on manpower. But this place is so far from the castle, and it would take a lot of time for people to get here. So if we want to plant all of this land, it would be very difficult." Zhao smiled and said, "You're right, Grandma Merlin, I'm a bit too greedy.
Merlin smiled and said, "Young Master, how could you forget that there's a mountain lake in this mountain? If this mountain lake is really connected to the mountain lake behind our castle, then we can come here by boat. This way, not only will we save time, but we can also keep our secret better."
Zhao Hai stared blankly. He really hadn't thought of this point. If they really went by water, then it would be a lot faster than walking. Moreover, it would be a lot more concealed.
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "This is a good idea. Good, then I'll first transform the ten mu of land today." After saying that, his mind moved, and the spatial hole appeared once again. The ten mu of land in front of Zhao Hai would soon be transformed.
Although Merlin and Blockhead had already seen Zhao Hai transform the land once, they were still excited to see it this time. Zhao Hai's ability was absolutely unique in the continent. Although it couldn't be used to kill people, it was what they needed the most.
After transforming the ten mu of land, Zhao Hai let out a sigh of relief. He turned to Merlin and said, "Grandma Merlin, let's go back. Unfortunately, we don't have a boat. If we do, we can go back by water and see if we can go straight to the back of the castle."
Merlin chuckled and said, "How could Young Master forget? I'm a water mage. With two or three people, we don't need a boat to travel on water. Young Master doesn't need to worry, we'll go back by water in a moment. "
Zhao Hai stared blankly for a moment before nodding. To be honest, although he had been in the Ark Continent for a few days, he still hadn't gotten used to the various mysteries of the continent. He always confused this place with Earth. Using magic to carry people on water was something that could only happen on Earth, but here, it was possible.
Zhao Hai nodded and looked at the land. He turned to Merlin and said with a smile, "Grandma Merlin, let's go back. I'm afraid that Meg and Blockhead won't be able to handle everything."
Merlin looked around the area and realized that there was really nothing else worth paying attention to. Then, he nodded and said, "Alright, let's go back." After saying that, the three of them turned around and walked back to the cave they came from.
The three people entered the cave. Merlin used an illumination spell to open the way in front. Zhao Hai and Blockhead followed behind her. This time, the three people directly walked in the direction of the sound of water.
After walking for about fifteen minutes, Merlin saw the mountain lake in front of them. This mountain lake was really big. Aside from being blocked by mountains on both sides, they couldn't see the end of it with a single glance.
Zhao Hai stood by Merlin's side. Their current position was about three meters above the surface of the lake. Going down, there was a slope. This slope was very smooth, it seems to have been used by the Dwarves to transport ores in the past.
The ground was paved with stones, but because it was relatively close to the water, it was covered with moss and was somewhat slippery.
Zhao Hai looked at the water and sighed. "Who would've thought that there would be such a treasured place in the Black Waste? As long as we know why there aren't any fish in this lake, we can raise fish here on a large scale."
Merlin nodded and said, "Yes, this lake is so big. How many fish can we raise? In the future, this can become one of our Buda clan's main income industries."
Zhao Hai nodded and turned to Merlin. "Grandma Merlin, let's go back. Right, if there really are magic beasts in the water, won't it be okay for us to go over the water like this?"
Merlin smiled and said with a face full of confidence, "Young Master, don't worry. I guarantee that there won't be any problems." After saying that, she led the way to the lake. Zhao Hai hurriedly and carefully followed behind. Blockhead walked to Zhao Hai's side and held Zhao Hai's arm. Although the ground here was slippery, Blockhead walked as steadily as Mount Tai.
