Chapter 135: The Treasure of the Goblins
Walking down the high ground and continuing along a dirt path with no weeds, Lin Zhi soon met a man with two front teeth and a large backpack on his back.
There was no other reason for Lin Zhi to stop, just because there was an exclamation mark on the other party's head, which was a sign that there was a task that could be accepted, and Lin Zhi suddenly became interested.
He rode over, got off his mount, and then stepped forward to introduce himself, asked if the other party needed any help, and then stood aside and waited quietly for the other person's reply.
"Friend, I found traces of goblins here, according to my intelligence, it is very likely to be related to the legendary goblin treasure here, are you interested in exploring it with me." After listening to Lin Zhi's introduction, the man immediately had the heart to pull Lin Zhi on the boat, and said with a wicked smile.
"I don't know where the treasure is, what's in the way?" Lin Zhi also had some interest and asked curiously.
"According to the information of the treasure map, the treasure is buried in the forest ahead, but now it is occupied by goblins, and it is difficult for outsiders to enter." The man pointed to the woods in front of him and said.
"You mean let me go and destroy the goblins?" Lin Zhi said a little unhappily.
"It doesn't have to be destroyed, although those goblins occupy it, I think the two of us can sneak in and see if the treasure exists, and maybe we can make a profit." The man's eyes lit up.
Lin Zhi nodded when he heard this, and then asked the other party if he knew the location of the treasure and whether the information was reliable.
"I found this news from the ruins of a goblin, and looking at the whereabouts of these goblins, this information should be true." The front tooth man retracted his smile and said calmly.
"Then I'll accompany you on this journey." Lin Zhi thought about it and felt that there was nothing wrong with exploring it, so he readily agreed.
When the front tooth man heard this, his face was happy, and then he walked in front, saying that he was leading the way for Lin Zhi. Lin Zhi didn't object, so he honestly followed behind the man, and the two entered the woods one after the other.
After walking for a while, there were a few shrill conversations in front, and the front tooth man hurriedly turned around, made a silent gesture to Lin Zhi, and then found a bush and hid inside.
Seeing this, Lin Zhi also hid in the bushes. After a while, I saw two short goblins walking over, speaking in a language that Lin Zhi couldn't understand.
Lin Zhi and the others hid in the bushes like wooden people, and after a while, they heard the sound of running water coming from the bushes next to them, and smelled a foul smell, both of them were extremely bored, and they couldn't imagine that these two goblins came here conveniently.
The two goblins finished speaking, and said words that Lin Zhi couldn't understand, and walked into the woods in pieces.
The front tooth man saw the two goblins walk away, covering his nose with one hand and fanning the other hand constantly, as if to drive away the unpleasant smell.
Lin Zhi looked ahead, cast an inquiring look, the front tooth man nodded, and then walked lightly towards the depths of the forest.
After walking for a while, the man with the front teeth signaled Lin Zhi to be careful, and then hid behind a big tree, Lin Zhi reacted quickly, quickly found a big stone, and hid behind.
After a while, several goblins with pointed ears came out, each holding a short sword in their hands, and tossing a wine bottle at the bartender.
This is supposed to be a patrol team of goblins, walking around and finding nothing out of the ordinary, and then going back, presumably to the next patrol point.
Lin Zhi breathed a long sigh of relief, fortunately the other party did not continue to move forward, otherwise he and the man with his front teeth would be exposed.
The front tooth man poked his head out, looked around, and then tiptoed on, and when Lin Zhi saw this, he also cautiously followed.
In the following time, Lin Zhi and the front tooth man met several patrolling goblin teams, but they were very lucky to dodge and soon arrived at a depression.
There are no trees on the hollow, only a few trees around it, which looks like a bit of a treasure spot.
The front tooth man took out a parchment map, looked at the surrounding scenery, and then pointed to the hollow, indicating that the treasure was here.
Lin Zhi looked around and found that there was no trace of the goblin, and then whispered to the front tooth man to check it out as soon as possible, and then leave quickly.
The front tooth man nodded, then took out two shovels from the backpack behind him, took one for himself, handed it to Lin Zhi, and then walked towards the recess.
Taking advantage of the absence of goblins, the two quickly dug up, and after a while dug a large shallow pit, but still did not see the shadow of the treasure.
Lin Zhi told the other party that he would dig for ten more minutes at most, and if it didn't work, he would leave, and the young man with front teeth also knew that he was now in the station of the goblin, and he could not stay for a long time, so he also nodded.
Time passed little by little, and the two dug out some dirt in the shallow pit, but there was still no trace of the treasure, and the man with the front teeth was a little anxious, and waved his shovel to the ground.
This time, it was as if the shovel had hit some hard object, and the shovel did not go deeper. Lin Zhi also discovered the situation, quickly leaned over, and the two hurriedly cut the soil, and a black thing appeared in front of the two.
The two of them looked at each other, and both saw a look of joy in each other's eyes, and the two of them worked harder, and soon dug out the black thing—a box forty or fifty centimeters long and thirty centimeters wide.
The box was locked, but the front tooth man was very well prepared, took out a wire from his backpack, and then began to try to open the box, while Lin Zhi waited on the side.
It didn't take long for the iron lock to open smoothly with a click. The man at the gate called Lin Zhi to come and prepare to open the box together to see what treasures were inside.
The two silently counted three, and then together they lifted the box. Suddenly, a large blue mass rushed out of the box, like a flood of floodgates, and frightened the two of them back a few steps.
The blue things were clumps one after another, looking like clouds with tails, Lin Zhi tried to touch those blue things, but the palm of his hand passed through them directly, as if they were empty.
Perhaps this place was affected by the mutation here, and there was a messy footstep all around, and the sound was rapidly approaching, which seemed to have alarmed the goblins here.
"It's not good, these are ghosts, not treasures, the goblins are coming, let's scatter and escape, see you in the old place." The front tooth man only had time to shout a few words before he ran away.
Looking at the back of the unrighteous front tooth man, Lin Zhi also smiled bitterly, picked up the glory battle axe, and prepared to deal with the next battle.
The first thing to encounter is not the goblins, but these ghosts that rush out. After these ghosts came out, they leaned towards the only living person here, Lin Zhi.
Seeing this, Lin Zhi released a flurry of dancing matchlessness, and several ghosts around him instantly turned into smoke and dissipated into the air. Fortunately, the Glory Battle Ax was able to attack these ghosts, and Lin Zhi felt a little more relaxed.
There are a lot of ghosts, not axes that can be destroyed in a while, Lin Zhi is not in love with war, and he fights and retreats, and soon leaves the hollow, but he also meets the goblins who are coming.
Lin Zhi swung his battle axe and released it towards the goblin in front of him with a slash of qi, and the goblin wielded a short sword to try to resist, but quickly flew back upside down under the huge impact.
With the goblins blocking them, the ghosts behind them quickly rushed over. Seeing that he was about to fall into a situation of being attacked on his back and back, Lin Zhi made an offensive gesture at the ghost, and then rushed into the goblin.
The ghost quickly approached, met the goblin, and quickly attacked, and the goblin was attacked, let out a shrill cry, and then swung a short sword to meet it.
The dagger passed through the ghost's body, but it did no damage at all, leaving the goblin stunned. The surrounding goblins also had the same problem, and the dagger could not threaten the ghosts.
Just then, a goblin screamed, and then waved a torch at the ghost, who seemed to be very jealous and avoided the torch far away.
The ghosts are afraid of fire, and the goblins quickly react, and then they light torches and start a fight with the ghosts.
Lin Zhi was overjoyed when he saw the goblins and ghosts fighting together, and then waved his tomahawk to split a few goblins that were close by, but he broke out of the encirclement.
Running all the way, after a while, Lin Zhi left the woods and came to the previous path, took a deep breath, and rushed towards the place where he had met the man before.
Walking around a corner, he saw the figure of the front tooth man from a distance, Lin Zhi was also a little speechless, the other party's speed just now went to participate in the running, and he could definitely get a good ranking.
"Friend, you are a little unrighteous, and you will slip away when you encounter danger." Lin Zhi stepped forward and said with some complaint.
"Friend, I'm relieved to see that you're okay, just now the situation was urgent, I thought that the two of us could run one by one, so I didn't care too much, and now it's okay, both of us have left that place." The front tooth man said with some embarrassment.
"Okay, in my opinion, the treasure hunt will be over for the time being, and I'm going to go ahead and continue my adventure." Lin Zhi felt that there was no need to pursue too much with an NPC, so he said casually.
"yes, who would have thought that the chest was full of ghosts, what kind of treasure is this?" The front tooth man said with some dissatisfaction, then packed his backpack and prepared to leave.
The front tooth man was going in a different direction from Lin Zhi, so he didn't set off together, maybe he didn't have the face to continue to stay with Lin Zhi.
Lin Zhi didn't speculate about the other party's thoughts, rode on the red rabbit horse, and headed forward, according to the words of the mayor of Coney Andrew Village, the front is the territory of the wild boar people, and he is still careful.
