Chapter 0006: Entrustment of Matthew Village
The rising sun is as yellow as a chick, falling down from the winding mountains, covered with flowing rivers, grass slopes, shrubs...
The yellow dandelion floats by, butterflies with complex patterns are chasing, the purple bob grass is prone to scratch passers-by, and the lizard-like mouse makes a rustling sound, and is culled by the brown snake and dragged into the pile of rotten wood.
Adam and Jane left the whole morning, and he kept paying attention to the things around him. After being reborn, the experience in his mind became simple knowledge, and what he saw with his own eyes would give him a wonderful feeling of a first encounter.
At noon, the two sat on an abandoned carriage overturned by the roadside and ate the wolf meat strips that were roasted last night, a tributary of the Kundia continent, and a lake everywhere, making it easier to get water.
The trees are tall and the dimly lit swamps are buried with the legacy of brave and lost people, and countless rotten corpses are wandering around.
Various exchanges crushed the wide yellow and bare roads on the grass and extended to every settlement on the mainland. It was actually very difficult to walk on the hard road.
This is nothing to Adam who has fully recovered.
However, Jane was able to walk down without saying a word, which made him look at him with admiration. It took half an afternoon to go, and when the sun began to tilt, they finally arrived at Matthew Village.
There were crops of straw harvested in the flat fields, and the smoke from the chimney of the winery was thick and full. The guards riding horses and the guards at the entrance of the village all showed disdain and warning eyes.
[You came to Matthew Village, Lord Arnold occupied it, and the villagers looked at you with expressionless faces.]
There are village women wearing patch skirts, short-dressed farmers, shirtless blacksmiths, and old men who trimmed the medicine garden. The expressions on their faces are not redundant.
The neighing sound of the horse came, and there was a mount Adam was thinking of.
[There are often recent announcements and commissions on the public notice board at the entrance of the village.]
Adam took Jane and stopped in front of the signs covered with nail marks and yellowed paper, and everyone around him looked here.
[(Clue 1) Yellowing announcement]
[The grain of the mill was occupied by the evil banshee, and Lord Arnold offered a reward of 1 golden crow coin to get rid of her.]
Adam did not stay. After remembering this commission, he walked all the way around the village, swept through the wooden-topped and stone-walled houses, and finally saw the words [Public House LV1] in the notes.
Adam held Jane's hand, glanced at the military horse tied at the door and the blue dots piled up on the map, and pushed open the oak door.
The noise in the regular tavern came to an abrupt end, and two tables of soldiers were sitting around, with leather armor and swords and axes on their bodies, emitting a strong smell of alcohol and hostility.
Jane lowered her head nervously, closed her eyes and let Adam take her seat on the bench in front of the bar.
"Boss, I need a glass of wine with a higher degree, and hot food."
There was only one strong bearded uncle in the hardwood bar. He held his gloomy face in front of the wine rack, picked up a few pieces of black leather bread next to him, wrapped it casually and threw it over.
"Ten bronze wolf, there are no other ones! Bear legs, please get out of this room quickly..."
He pulled out the white rag and wiped the clean table in front of the two of them, his tone full of driving away.
Adam lazily held up his arm, his tone of jokingness.
"The wheat fields are good, and the harvest this year should be very good, but you will give me this kind of bran that doesn't have milk flavor?"
"Are you deaf? If you want to survive, get out of here. Why are you bringing such a child here?"
The boss's voice was very low, but his tone was already anxious. I saw two drunk guys leaning towards this side in my eyes.
"Wolf belly!"
The boss gritted his teeth angrily, and he held the rag in his hand. He beat the table and turned around, indicating that he would no longer get involved.
"Leave this woman to keep your legs, and now climb out of this door."
The tall soldier was dressed in messy clothes, with wine and mud on his beard. He patted the sword on his waist, and his tone was fierce.
[A alcoholic soldier is provoking you, your decision has a profound impact.]
Adam looked at the two tables, one of which was a soldier of five, looked over with a low expression, and the other was a better equipped captain and adjutant, who were drinking in dismay.
[The stranger opposite has gradually lost patience. The number of guards in the village cannot make you go out alive. If you don’t have an answer before the other party draws the sword, then the ghoul’s dinner will be settled.]
"If you pull out this sword, I'll die here today, but there must be two guys with me, and you're the one that's the most likely."
Adam showed off the long sword at his waist, and the soldiers opposite him were a little angry, but saw Adam pointing at his crotch and finishing with a smile.
"Put your legs away and I'll give you the best drink. Or are you more willing to bet on your brothers' lives for a pleasure?"
The drunk man was gasping heavily, but his eyes flashed and he was already entangled
Bang!
The guard's glass hit the table, and the iron armor rustled, and the fierce soldier just now made way.
【Heavy moody guard captain】
【Monolo: Let’s stop here!】
He walked up to Adam and looked down at the young man with a calm expression, while reaching his hand to his long sword at his waist. The air in the tavern solidified in this arc, and the guards in the back row began to stand up.
However, the other party's hand reached into his waist pocket and threw several silver pythons on the table.
The soldier walked away tactfully. The tavern owner breathed a sigh of relief. He took two dried wooden cups and poured the strong wine.
"I'll ask my person myself, where did you come from?"
[The guard captain let go of his hostility to you, and you did not make enemies with Arnold's power, a wise move.]
Jane next to her was almost scared.
Adam looked at Nian Bai and felt relieved. He began to chat with the captain of the guard, saying that he was a mercenary and wandered here to see if he could make some entrustment.
"Oh? You're pretty brave, why don't you come to my team," he paused, "but you can't bring your woman with you."
"Forget it, I have no plans to join the army, but I am very interested in the entrustment from the village entrance."
This seemed to have asked the source of his troubles, and the wooden cup was smashing loudly.
On the hillside next to Matthew Village, there was a large mill that stocked up a batch of food that the lord Arnold had obtained from the south, but later some changes occurred, and the family died, and the hostess turned into a resentful spirit and entrenched there.
The mill collapsed for no reason, and all the food disappeared. Now that thing still occupies there. The guard captain and his party were ordered to get rid of her, but unfortunately they had a group of people and did nothing.
"Give me a silver sword, I'll get the reward for you."
"Ha, your mouth is bigger than the horse's butt! My team of ten people, all with silver swords and corpse oil, can't collect corpses yet!"
"You have to trust professionals. I am a mercenary and a bounty. Make me a silver sword. After the matter is done, I will give me a horse and give you the golden crow coins in the bounty."
The captain of the guard stared at his face and confirmed that the other party showed no signs of being drunk or crazy.
"I'll ask the blacksmith to give you a handful and send it to the tavern tomorrow morning."
When the other party left, he paid for the wine. Adam noticed that he gave a few more silver foxes, but the boss did not express any gratitude.
