Chapter 8: Crisis! Villagers Attacked!
Towards the end of the evening, Chris finally returned with someone.
"Didn't anyone arrive?" Lin Xiu counted the number of villagers standing at the door of the mansion, and found that there were only 30 villagers present, including two fourteen or fifteen-year-old children and three middle-aged women and two elderly people who were nearly sixty years old as Lin Xiu's reserve members.
"What about Sawyer, Walter, Tony? Why didn't they come?" Lin Xiu was a little unhappy, this battle was about Hammond's future, and he couldn't tolerate someone dropping the chain at this time.
Mast, who had a plaster cast on his leg and a bandage around his waist, glanced at Luo Da beside him and said to Lin Xiu: "Village Chief, this matter is to blame us, the doctor said that we need nutrition and need to eat some good things, so they will enter the Azure Forest to hunt." ”
Master was very grateful to Lin Xiu for helping him pay for his medical expenses, so as soon as he heard that Lin Xiu had summoned them, he and Luo Da, who were being treated, immediately rushed over.
Roda is in a better condition than Master, but it is just a look, his arm is broken, now he is in a plaster, hanging with a bandage, and there is a big hole in his back that is wrapped in a bandage, he also opened his mouth and said to Lin Xiu: "Don't worry, adults, it's getting dark now, they can't spend the night in the forest, it is estimated that they should come back in a while." ”
There are many monsters near Hammond, unable to grow vegetables, and there are not many wild vegetables, the villagers can only meet their living needs by hunting, and the number of hunters is usually more than ten people, but this time there are only three people in Sawyer's party, and the three of them dare to enter the big blue forest, isn't this looking for death?
Lin Xian was about to say something, but the system screen suddenly projected in front of him.
A dazzling red light fills the screen, and three cautionary exclamation points appear at the top of the dialog box.
[Villagers Sawyer, Walter, and Tony were attacked by goblins, please send someone to support, coordinates: Azure Forest 125:623]
Lin Xiu's heart was immediately grasped.
"Something happened. Lin Xiu frowned and looked at Li Yan beside him, the only person he could rely on now was Li Yan.
Approaching night, the villagers entering the Great Blue Forest may encounter unforeseen dangers, and it is impossible for him to put more people in trouble in order to rescue the three villagers.
"Lord Lin Xiu, what happened?" Li Yan looked at Lin Xiu.
"Sawyer: They've encountered a goblin in the Great Azure Forest. Lin Xiu tried to make a long story short: "Now the strength of the villagers is not enough to enter the Azure Forest at night for search and rescue, only you can rely on you." ”
Li Yan did not hesitate, knelt down and received the order: "Serve Lord Lin Xiu, and he will never give up." ”
"Their coordinates are the Great Azure Forest, 125,623. Lin Xiu didn't know if Li Yan could understand what he said, and if he didn't understand, he couldn't do it, because he didn't know the specific location that this coordinate was referring to.
"Order!"
Li Yan got up and rushed out directly, and under the light of the afterglow, his body dragged out a long phantom.
"Lord Lin Xiu, I'm going to help too. ”
Chris was just about to act when Lin Xiu stopped him: "Don't go, leave it to Li Yan!"
Chris's fists tightened and loosened, loosened and tightened, and he was unwilling in his heart, but he also knew that his speed was too slow compared to Li Yan, and finally he had to sigh helplessly.
"What happened to those three babies?" Master is middle-aged, and the three of Sawyer are his juniors, hearing the conversation between Lin Xiu and Li Yan, his heart was clenched, and he couldn't help but squat on his chest for a while: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault, if I could be sober at the time, it would be fine to stop them." How could I get the three of them into the forest. ”
"Don't get excited, your injuries are not healed, be careful to pull the wounds. Lin Xiu said.
Master's face turned a little pale, and Lin Xiu hurriedly asked Barton to move two stools out of the house.
"I'm not going to sit, I'm going to wait at the entrance of the forest for those three boys to come back. Rhoda said firmly, turning and walking towards the north of the village.
Lin Xiu noticed that his eyes were slightly red.
"I'll go too. Master limped behind Rhoda on crutches.
"Village Chief, if there is nothing to do, I will go first, old man. The one who spoke was the elder of the village, 65-year-old Brooke, before Lin Xiu took office, Hammond's affairs were all handled by him, and now that Lin Xiu has taken office, he can be regarded as a successful retirement.
Li Yan went to save people, and Lin Xiu didn't know Li Yan's training plan, looked at the villagers in front of him, and waved his hand: "Let's all disperse, we will gather here at dawn tomorrow." ”
The villagers dispersed, and Lin Xiu looked at Chris with a heavy heart: "I'm going to take a look." ”
Chris immediately said, "I'll accompany you." ”
Barton also wanted to follow, but when he saw Xibeier hiding behind the door, he didn't dare to look directly into Lin Xiu's eyes: "I'll wait for you to come back at home." ”
Lin Xiu took Chris all the way to the north of the village, originally he thought that there were only Master, Roda and Brooke, but when he arrived, he found that most of the villagers had gathered here, and more villagers were coming.
Lin Xiu walked to Master's side and looked at the big blue forest that was gradually disappearing into darkness: "They will definitely be fine." ”
"Let's hope so, if they really can't come back. Master clenched his hands, his lips trembling: "This, this may be fate!"
The people of this village believe in their fate and accept their fate, which is the greatest sorrow and the greatest helplessness.
When it got dark, torches were raised in the crowd, and some children shook their mother's arms: "Mother, I'm hungry, shall we go back to eat?"
"Wait a little longer, wait a little longer. ”
The villagers hoped for a miracle, but they were afraid that what they were waiting for in the end would be a tragedy, and the only thing that kept them here was the sadness of the rabbit and the fox.
An hour passed, and no one came out of the forest.
Two hours passed, and some of the villagers left in frustration.
In the third hour, Lin Xiu couldn't help but get nervous, it should be nine o'clock in the evening, according to Li Yan's speed, it was impossible to bring the three of them back so late, could it be that he was in trouble?
"Someone's coming out!"
Lin Xiu hurriedly raised his head, and several figures flashed in the dark forest.
"They're back! they're back!" the villagers shouted louder and louder, alarming those who had already returned home, dozens of villagers rushing from all directions of the village.
The figure got closer and closer, and by the light of the torch, Lin Xiu finally saw the face of the person clearly.
Li Yan walked at the forefront, his brisk pace was in stark contrast to the three people who were carrying cloth bags behind him.
"Finally back. Seeing the familiar face, Sawyer threw the cloth bag to his side, sat on the ground, and gasped: "I'm tired!"
"Bastard, you're willing to come back!" said Master, limping toward Sawyer with his crutches, smiling but with two lines of old tears on his face.
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back. Luo Da's gaze wandered between the three of them, and seeing that they were not injured, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: "You must not enter the Azure Forest alone in the future, this time fortunately, Lord Li Yan arrived in time, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
Li Yan?
This cold master is called Li Yan?
The three of Sawyer looked at Li Yan at the same time, at that time they were surrounded by more than a dozen goblin warriors, so many enemies, even if they had already advanced, they were exhausted.
Just as they were about to give up, a dark shadow suddenly burst into the battlefield, and slashed and killed all the goblins.
Take them with you......
The thought of what had happened before made their scalps tingle and they had a feeling of unreality.
"Li Yan, why have you been there for so long?, have you encountered any trouble?" Lin Si walked to Li Yan's side, but his eyes wandered between the cloth bags that Sawyer had brought back, but unfortunately the mouth of the cloth bags was tied with ropes, and he didn't see the reason.
"Back to my lord, there is no danger, but I happened to run into a goblin team that was about to sneak attack the village, and I easily eliminated them, so I delayed a little time. ”
"Village Elder, don't you know, Lord Li Yan was very powerful at that time, and after destroying the goblin team, he captured a goblin alive and took us around in a big circle to destroy the Blackstone Goblin Tribe. Sawyer finally relented and spoke loudly about Li Yan's great achievements.
"Blackstone, which Blackstone are you talking about?" Chris asked eagerly, the Blackstone Goblin Tribe is the strongest Goblin Tribe in the vicinity, the number of Goblin Warriors is around 120, and there are 3 Goblin Wizards in charge, Li Yan actually exterminated the Blackstone Tribe in such a short time, so his strength ......
"What other black stone can there be besides that black stone?" asked Sawyer triumphantly, as if the person who exterminated the Black Stone Goblin tribe was not Li Yan but him.
When the villagers gathered around heard that the Blackstone Goblin tribe had been wiped out, they immediately exploded:
"I said before that Master Li Yan would definitely bring them here, but you still don't believe it. ”
"Great! The Blackstone Tribe has been wiped out, and hunting will be half as dangerous in the future, and there will be no need to worry about being surrounded by a large number of goblin warriors. ”
"Thank you!"
"Lord Li Yan is doing well! Long live the village elder!"
"Then what is?" Lin Xiu asked, pointing to the cloth bag they had brought back.
"These?" Sawyer's mysterious hand grabbed the rope at the mouth of the bag and pulled it gently, "Of course it's the spoils of war." ”
Goblin skulls rolled out, green blood spilling all over the ground.
The surrounding villagers were stunned for a moment, and then let out a loud roar.
Their fathers, their spouses, their sons, how many people have died under the butcher's knife of this group of green-skinned demons.
The villagers smashed these cruel creatures with their hands, benches, and stones to vent their anger. Even a woman lifted her skirt and put her feet on it.
They have been suppressed for too long, and today they have finally found a way to vent, and everyone is crazy.
"I told you not to pick up the garbage, they wouldn't listen. Li Yan said lightly.
"But the effect is good, isn't it?By the way, did you bring back those goblin wizards' staffs?" Lin Xiu looked at the villagers' 'atrocities' with a smile, and there was no dissatisfaction in his heart, but he was a little happy.
The depression in his heart can only regain the sunshine after catharsis, and maybe tomorrow he will be able to see a different Hammond.
"What did the adults say about the wooden sticks?" Li Yan shook his head: "I didn't bring them back because I saw that the sticks were useless, if the adults needed them, I would go and get them back now." ”
Lin Xiu waved his hand: "Forget it, it's too late today, let's go tomorrow." ”
"Good!"
