Chapter 614
Upon hearing Zhang Lisheng's question, the young flashed a mouthful of white teeth before replying cheerfully . \"Certainly! Sir, are you looking for Mr . Saganso to have your astrology read? Has his fame already spread out to even the outer city?\"
\"Astrology?\" Zhang Lisheng was slightly stunned . \"I'm indeed looking for Mr . Saganso, but isn't he a geologist?\"
\"Don't you know, sir? Mr . Saganso's official profession is indeed a geologist specially hired by the Mining Association, but he's more proficient at predicting fate using stars,\" The young man said in a mysterious voice . \"Not only that but unlike ordinary astrologers who practice divination at night, Mr . Saganso can also augur by watching the change in the sun's halo during the day . Those who have seen him auguring before said that an ordinary person's past and future are nothing but an open book in Mr . Saganso's eyes . There's no secret in front of him at all . \"
The reason the Wizard Li's Holy See could track the whereabouts of the founder of the Yasen artillery infantry squad was all because of the clues they accidentally came across from the old diary of a dead aged alchemist . By working out the clues, they finally managed to get some results .
Given Tandari's caution, after finding his hiding place, Zhang Lisheng had specifically told Tuan not to allow any of the secret agents to appear in Lange City, let alone purposely collecting any intelligence about him . For this reason, other than some necessary information about Tandari, who had disguised himself by calling himself Saganso, he did know nothing much . It was his first time hearing the news the coachman told him .
However, Zhang Lisheng had pondered in the dead of night over the unreasonable actions of Tandari, like why would a legendary alchemist who stood at the top of the mainland revered by the sovereigns of many powerful countries in the mainland spend so much effort in creating a false identity and even mysteriously adopted an orphan girl . Why would he kill all the assistants and apprentices in his alchemy workshop before escaping in haste after the Wizard Li people obtained the victory in the battle of the Gaoden Hill that determined the fate of the Green Leaf Mainland? Why did he not continue to resist the expansion of the Wizard Li faith after the battle of the Gaoden Hill if he really had one or several powerful beings standing behind him?
Now, there was one more unsolved mystery . For example, to a pretender who often needed to disappear, a geologist who required to explore the mineral veins in the wilderness all year round was indeed a very suitable cover-up identity, but it was superfluous to have an astrological hobby that required him to come in contact with strangers .
After having no result despite his pondering, Zhang Lisheng walked into the carriage and sat on the shiny, soft leather seat . He turned to the coachman through the circular hole in the wall of the transport and asked, \"Does Mr . Saganso always augur for the others?\"
\"Yes, sir,\" The coachman whipped his whip loudly and drove away from the airship station in the suburb, driving on the spacious road bathing in the refreshing cool breeze, he replied, \"Mr . Saganso is a very enthusiastic person . As long as he's not out to explore the mineral veins, he will not refuse in auguring for anybody, and on top of that, he doesn't accept any payment too . \"
A legendary alchemy master who inexplicably disguised as a geologist relied on giving horoscopes to spend his past time in seclusion was just too strange . Upon hearing the answer from the young coachman, if it was not for the fact that Zhang Lisheng did not believe that his Holy See would use a stupid mistake to brush off its god, he would have most likely had a doubt whether Mr . Saganso was actually a disguise created by Tandari .
\"Doesn't accept any payment?\" Suppressing the puzzlement in his heart, the young man asked again, \"Then there must be a lot of people who find Mr . Saganso to augur for them . \"
\"Not really, Mr . Saganso is a decent scholar, after all, so ordinary people dare not go to look for him . Besides, not everybody knows about his fame…\" The coach continued to answer the customer's question in a chatty manner as he drove the carriage into the Lange City .
As a well-known mining city in the mainland, the street of Lange was bustling, but the environment was not so pleasant . The road that could accommodate four carriages side by side were inevitably scattered with fine slags . The green trees that were just planted on the street were also covered with a layer of shallow dust .
It was effortless to distinguish between locals and foreigners in the city . The pedestrians who could walk in the dust that seemed to have caused a slight mist must be the old residents of Lange City, for all the travelers who came here would frown and cover their noses, be it the merchants who came here to do business or those who came to visit their relatives and friends .
\"Sir, this is Mr . Saganso's house . \" The young coachman of the rented carriage shuttled for a long time in the dirty and huge city before finally stopping in front of a gray stone building . After putting away his whip, he announced loudly .
After the Hellfire people had invaded the Green Leaf Mainland, the aristocrats who were willing to become a coolie and live a hard life instead of submitting and serving the Holy See had been cruelly suppressed . All their lands and wealth had been confiscated, but for the wealthy merchants and scholars who consciously released goodwill, their interests had not encroached .
Adding on to the fact that when Lange City fell without any resistance, Wizard Li's faith had already enveloped most of the mainland's land, showing an unstoppable trend . Most of the millions of people in the city converted sincerely, so for this reason, the wealth and life of the honorable people in the city were not affected, and one could tell from their imposing manners that Tandari lived in seclusion .
