Among the former villagers of Greenstone Village, there were many people who died like Fei Lin, most of them were people who died on the way to escape when the restorers burned the war to Greenstone Village, although in Duan Qing's impression, this Fei Lin mentioned by Xiao Hongchen seemed to be no different from other ordinary villagers, but judging from the expression of this shirtless young man himself, this middle-aged uncle who lived in the north of Greenstone Village seemed to have left a deep impression on him: "That guy ...... I was taken care of by him a lot when I was in the novice village, and I ended up owing him a glass of wine, and now I ......."

"Manly man, what is this matter?" Duan Qing was silent for a while, and then patted the other party's shoulder: "It's a big deal...... Just remember to give it back to him. ”

"There are far more people dead in Greenstone Village." As if they had been following each other, the evil young man in the black cloak also slowly walked out of behind the curtain of the wind and snow: "There is also Little York in the east of the village, Amburu who likes to weave leather armor...... They don't seem to be gone anymore. ”

“…… Is it? Looking back at the top of the canyon, near the direction of Greenstone Village on the south side of the mountain road, a sigh from Duan Qing also sounded under the wind and snow: "If so many people really died, it means that the battle at that time was more fierce than we imagined......"

"Is the gentleman also suspicious of the identity of the old village chief?" I don't know when she appeared in the team, and Ning Lan's voice suddenly sounded: "Ning Lan thinks...... The village chief just now seems to have something unspeakable. ”

"I felt powerful magical fluctuations in him." The Thousand-Fingered Crane holding the staff also whispered: "Although it is very vague, but ...... But I shouldn't be wrong with my feelings! ”

"The Emerald Forest next to it is so dangerous, maybe the former Greenstone Village is also a Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger......" Mengzhu, who was standing on the side, pursed his lips, and then inadvertently looked back: "Now think about it...... That bald blacksmith must have a problem too! ”

"That's what we're here for, didn't I explain it to you before?" Duan Qing took a deep breath: "But since the current situation is so complicated......"

"Let's do their request first, and observe the situation by the way."

In another scene where the sky was about to darken, Duan Qing and the others, who had inadvertently found the remaining villagers of Greenstone Village, stayed in the corner of this canyon, paying attention to the changes around them, while completing the tasks assigned to them by the villagers who stayed here. Compared with when they first entered this game, they naturally became much easier to deal with these tasks at this time, and the only thing that affected them was the wind and snow all over the sky, probably the situation of those villagers they had been seeing - the first time they encountered a big disaster, and there was a lack of food and clothing, it didn't seem to be a simple thing to hide in this area and survive, not to mention that they were all old and weak soldiers who had no power to resist, and there were naturally NPC people who still seemed to be able to fight. But they naturally didn't deserve help as much as others, so in Duan Qing's activities in the following period, most of their task handover and help lists revolved around those old people and children: "...... This is the prey we have just caught, so eat it first...... What the? No, no, no, we don't need a reward, it's not a trivial matter for us to fight a pheasant or a hare......"

"Let Uncle Zach come back! It's cold at night, and the next patrol mission will be done by me Xiaohongchen! ”

"It's born! Come and warm up, everyone! Wow, it's so hard to control the flames...... Hey? I'm not a great magician, I'm just an ordinary adventurer......"

"After drinking this bottle of medicine, your body will not hurt, and when you recover your health, how about my sister take you back to the village to play? Alas......"

Wiping the sweat on his forehead, Mengzhu who finally tricked the medicine bottle in his hand into the mouth of an injured child breathed a sigh of relief, and stood up and moved in place for a long time before he liberated himself from the sour numbness caused by the kneeling posture: "Finally flickered the third ...... Where have you been, uncle? ”

"I went to the front of the mountain road and took a look."

Quietly walked to Mengzhu's side, patted Duan Qing, who was covered with snow on his body, and replied in a low voice: "The blockade of the restorers really exists, and the entire mountain road seems to be controlled by them, and in this short half a day, three of their convoys have passed over us. ”

"Maybe we alarmed them." The little girl wrinkled her eyebrows and thought for a while, and finally said sullenly: "What if I found a group of intruders at the mountain pass, and finally couldn't find them?" It's not a matter of heightened vigilance to continue the search......"

"They may have sensed the existence of the Hidden Ones at the bottom of the valley as well." Duan Qing also shook his head: "Although I don't know how Val did it, how can something like an avalanche happen every time, with the powerful means of the restorationists, as long as they investigate a little......"

"You can't stay in this place for long."

After greeting each other for a while, several members of the Fool Adventure Group once again gathered outside the valley not far from the cave, and after finding a bush to hide from the snow, they all discussed their future plans: "We need to warn the rest of the people that it is too risky to continue hiding here." ”

"But there are a lot of wounded here." The evil young man who had just returned from Jicheng slapped the wind and snow on his body: "Considering the composition of those people, it's either the old man or the child...... It's just too difficult to transfer. ”

Ning Lan counted a little, including the old, weak, sick and disabled, who are difficult to transfer...... There are about thirteen of them here. Ning Lan, who was standing quietly on the side, then introduced in a low voice: "Healthy people who can still move, and those fighters who are suspected of being strong...... That's about four or five. ”

That is to say...... We've got about twenty people in total, right? Duan Qing pondered for a while: "It's okay if it's just a group of ordinary people, but this kind of situation ......"

"I can take care of this matter."

With the appearance of a voice that did not belong to Duan Qing and the others, a bright figure with a head gradually walked into the field of vision of several people who were in a meeting: "Even if I change jobs halfway, I am also a blacksmith, as long as I am given some time, I can use the resources at hand...... Turn into a large carriage that can carry twenty people. ”

"It should be enough to pull those of us who are still alive out." The blacksmith named Val said in a dull voice, and at the same time completely revealed his body in front of Duan Qing: "We just need to ...... An opportunity. ”

“…… It is worthy of being a former soldier who is so sensitive to the situation of the war. Duan Qing, who got up opposite each other, smiled slightly: "Presumably, you should have smelled danger long before we came here, right?" ”

“…… The village chief and Amara were aware of it, but they weren't professionals, so there wasn't much they could do about it. Ignoring Duan Qing's temptation, Val replied in a low voice, "But even so, staying in one place is never a long-term solution, and the Restorationists have been searching for several days in order to find the remnants of us......

"Sooner or later, they're going to search every inch of land here, and they're going to come to us." Duan Qing nodded, and at the same time looked around at the surrounding grass and trees covered in wind and snow: "In order to solve your predicament, our existence is also very necessary...... Is that so? ”

“…… I'm sorry to hide it from you, but I didn't expect the village chief to have such an attitude. Val tugged at his cotton coat: "Probably...... It's for your safety, so I don't want you to be involved in this fight. ”

"It doesn't matter what you have in mind, as long as you have enough trust in us." After glancing at Mengzhu, Duan Qing immediately nodded: "In order to show enough sincerity, we also spent a lot of effort just now." ”

"A way of expressing things that are unique to adventurers...... Hum. Val folded his arms in disdain, "In that case, then I will spare you the necessary process of gaining trust." ”

"I'll leave this task to you."

In the puzzled eyes of several people who turned around in unison, the bald blacksmith deliberately lowered his voice: "I officially entrust you to help us complete this escape operation, if you want to make this battle plan successful, the necessary intelligence and feints are essential, and there is not much time left for me, so the carriage used for transfer must be very simple, in order not to let the enemy find out, we can only use the method of temporarily diverting them......"

"In our words, this tactic is called "Strike West." Duan Qing pursed his lips helplessly: "Of course, if we get away with it, we will become the bait for our lives, right?" ”

“…… It is also possible for the two armies to fight. Val was silent for a moment, then slowly shook his head: "I know I can't force you adventurers to do the same, but there's nothing left to do now......"

"Don't worry, since we are here, we are naturally prepared enough." Duan Qing waved his hand: "But our lives can't be given away in vain, in case we need to give our lives in vain in the end...... But you still cannot flee in safety? ”

"We are not the only survivors in Greenstone Village."

Lowering his head and thinking for a while, Val, who was braving the wind and snow, lowered his head slightly: "The battle that happened a few days ago...... Some of them escaped along the mountains to the northeast, and if they are still alive, it means that there must be a way to survive there......"

"Maybe it's another hiding place." Ning Lan, who was in the secret voice on the side, replied with a smile: "Mr. Richard has introduced many strongholds that exist near Fenghua Town before, and one of them is the one that Mr. Kidd is in charge of...... It seems to be in that direction. ”

"If there's a stronghold there, then you've got a direction." Following the hint given by Ning Lan in the code, Duan Qing found a place in his adventurer's manual that he hadn't been to: "The visual distance is about twenty or thirty kilometers...... Oh no, it's thirty miles away, do you have faith? ”

"If no one else is harassing you, this journey should be fine."

Looking at the places pointed out in the map in Duan Qing's hand, the bald blacksmith replied with a frown: "But we can't guarantee that the restorers have set up other sentry posts on this road......

"Hey, do you want us to be in charge of reconnaissance and escort?" Xiao Hongchen on the side immediately objected: "There are only six of us, and we have to be divided into two groups!" Let's not talk about whether you can beat those magician teams...... If we fight like flies and mosquitoes, the restorers will not necessarily pay attention to us! ”

"There's nothing wrong with that, as long as I'm willing to show up." Duan Qing waved his hand lightly: "Although this may lead to a series of consequences, I am still relatively good at seeing the moves......

"Then, how should the team responsible for luring the enemy escape in the end?" The Thousand Finger Crane on the side asked worriedly, "We finally got here, what if someone has an accident......

"So it's good that I'll do that."

Pointing to his nose, Duan Qing looked up at the high valley: "The task of seduction, I will do it alone, no one will follow, and it will be easier to escape in the end......"

"Isn't it, Boss? Are you alone? Xiao Hongchen on the side immediately jumped up: "How is it possible?" No, no, it's so dangerous...... How could such an exciting thing let you go alone? ”

"Like this fool just said, one person's effect is limited after all." The evil young man on the side also shook his head in a low voice: "Even if it is to completely attract the attention of the enemy, it is impossible for us to let you go alone." ”

"I know what you're worried about, but this is the point I'm most confident in, and I don't think I'm inferior to any magician of the same level in terms of the level and ability to set off fireworks......

"Now it's not a question of discussing fireworks, it's a matter of life and death! Do you know if you live or die? Are you really going to die? ”

The noisy sound gradually spread over the howl of the wind and snow, and slowly sounded in the corner of this snow-covered bush, but Val, who was looking at all this, slowly showed a relieved expression, and then suddenly pressed the sharpened head of Xiao Hongchen, who was the loudest noise: "Shhhh ”

"Don't press me, uncle! You...... What are you doing? ”

Looking at the words of the rest of his teammates who also disappeared, Xiao Hongchen, who suddenly retracted his shout, also noticed a trace of abnormality, and several short figures also hurriedly hid behind their respective trees, and gradually turned their eyes to the wind and snow in the far side of the valley: "What, what's wrong?" ”

“…… Someone's coming. ”

Looking at the humanoid silhouette that appeared at the end of that direction, Duan Qing replied in a low voice.
