1. Fraudulent corpses

On the second Monday of the harvest month, the villagers of Furui Village seemed to be in a state of commotion.

In this day and age, sudden panic is a common occurrence.

Lords are at war with each other, kings and bishops are at war with their neighbors, and in addition to these overt wars, secretly people are also defending against infidels, thieves, and wild beasts.

Of course, there are also things that people can't resist, and most of them are legendary creatures that lurk in the dark, such as werewolves, vampires, etc.

At this time, unlike the rioted village of Furui, on the road about a kilometer away from the village, a 23-year-old male cook named Mr. Garlic was driving leisurely towards the village in his horse-drawn carriage, the wooden warehouse on which was full of garlic, which was exactly what he was going to make a fortune in Furui Village.

It wasn't long before Mr. Garlic's carriage arrived at the entrance of Furui Village, and as he was about to continue into the village, two guards in dirty leather armor suddenly appeared, and they blocked the carriage with their inferior spears.

Mr. Garlic stopped the carriage and shouted to the two guards, "I'm a cook from the village of Quintucaut in the south, may I let me into the village?"

One of the guards replied, "Not now, the village is in chaos right now." ”

Mr. Garlic on the carriage frowned slightly, and his left hand unconsciously touched his chin, as if he was thinking about something.

After a while, Mr. Garlic suddenly said, "Could it be that there are heretics spreading some blasphemous remarks in the village? ”

The guard who accosted him shook his head and continued: "If it is really a heretic, it will not be so troublesome, but the trouble in our village is..."

The other guard, who didn't speak, pulled his companion and lowered his voice to reproach, "What are you doing?

Alerted by his companion's reminder, the guards immediately shut their mouths, and no matter how much Mr. Garlic asked about what was happening in the village, the two guards stopped paying attention to him.

Seeing that the two men ignored him and did not allow himself to enter the village, Mr. Garlic was not angry, he stepped out of the carriage and went to the position of the warehouse, pulled open the tarpaulin that covered the goods, and pulled out an unerected tent from the pile full of garlic.

"You two, it shouldn't matter if I have a tent here, right?"

The one who had warned the guards to stop talking nonsense glanced at Mr. Garlic, then rubbed his thumb and forefinger against each other a few times.

Mr. Garlic shook his head firmly, put the tent he had taken out back into the warehouse, jumped into the carriage, turned around and walked out of the village.

The guard who gestured to Mr. Garlic spat hard on the ground, muttering unrelentingly, "This damn chef is so stingy." ”

The other guard then accosted again: "Matthew, I actually think that the merchant should be allowed to stay, so that there will be three of us when we spend the night." ”

"Lanta, you're really too cowardly, that's just a rumor that hasn't been confirmed yet! I don't believe it anyway, a vampire? ”

Presumably thinking that what Matthew said made sense, Lanta smiled heartily at the other party.

Dividing line?

Three kilometers away from the village of Furui, by a small river, stood a young girl with a graceful figure, a haughty complexion, and a slightly unhappy look on her face, who was talking to Mr. Garlic.

Mr. Garlic laughed loudly from time to time, as if mocking the girl in front of him.

The unbridled laughter provoked the girl's temper, and the gorgeously dressed blonde girl glared at Mr. Garlic with her hands on her waist.

"Hey, Mr. Garlic, what's so funny about that!"

Mr. Garlic seemed to have long been accustomed to the fickleness of the girl, and he calmly moved his gaze from the river to the girl, and after a long time he replied to the girl in a strange tone that was mocking and indescribable.

"Well, I'm not talking to you right now, Miss Vampire. ”

The girl known as Miss Vampire was enraged by this tone, and she exclaimed, "But I'm talking to you now, Mr. Garlic!"

Mr. Garlic smiled and looked at her without speaking, but his calm attitude and sneering countenance made Miss Vampire even angrier. She couldn't help but stick her sharp fangs out of her mouth, and there was a hint of fierceness on her pretty face.

"Mr. Garlic, do you want to keep laughing now?"

Mr. Garlic remains poised, even in the face of a vampire baring his teeth at him.

"I don't laugh often, Miss Vampire. You can tell from the look on my face, but when I'm happy, I don't give up laughing. ”

Miss Vampire flails her fists in the air, and she exclaims angrily, "I don't want people to laugh when I'm upset!"

Mr. Garlic was still smiling, and he turned his back to Miss Vampire without speaking, probably not taking the threat to heart at all.

"You turn around for me, turn around quickly, damn Mr. Garlic, I won't attack you from behind!"

"Attack me!" Mr. Garlic turned to look at her with a look of surprise, "what do you mean? My dearest Miss Vampire, are you crazy?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Miss Vampire's already clenched fist gave Mr. Garlic a ferocious blow to Mr. Garlic's lower abdomen.

"Whew!" a short snort of pain, Mr. Garlic, who was still very calm just now, covered his lower abdomen with his hands and fell to the ground, and he was extremely embarrassed for a while.

Miss Vampire held her head high, and she felt comfortable all over her body.

"Sure enough, to deal with a sharp-tongued chef like Mr. Garlic, it is still a pleasure to use force. ”

Mr. Garlic couldn't say half a complete sentence with a chirp, and the pain from his lower abdomen made him gasp all the time.

After being angry, Miss Vampire continued to herself: "I will go to Furui Village tonight to make trouble, and continue to deepen the villagers' fear of me, as for the rest of the matter, I will leave it to you, Mr. Garlic." ”

Mr. Garlic, who finally came to his senses, straightened up and said in the most confident tone: "Of course, we will definitely make a lot of money this time." ”

Miss Vampire's pretty face is full of longing, after all, she is a vampire who loves to hoard wealth.

"Well, after making money this time, I can buy the ruby coffin that I have loved for a long time, and I am really looking forward to it. ”

Mr. Garlic also clenched his fists hard to boost morale and said, "Come on, Miss Vampire, don't smash it tonight." ”
