Chapter 11: A Strange Village
In the afternoon sun, a teenager with a worn backpack walks alone on the road. Half of his face was hidden in his cloak, and he walked in a hurry, looking like a weathered traveler.
But in fact, this young man can only be regarded as a rookie who has just entered the rivers and lakes, this dress is from the handiwork of O'Rewyn, and he senses that Renault is about to leave the territory of Ulysi, and this seasoned hunter specially got a set of clothes from the astral spirit realm, and "dressed" Renault from head to toe, in his words: "It doesn't look like a fat sheep anymore." ”
Renaud didn't quite understand the meaning of "fat sheep", but he would not refuse this handsome outfit, which was the best dress he had ever worn in his life, and he excitedly took a long day in the puddle when he first put it on.
"Hey, boy, you're about to get to the real city, have you finished reading the book for you?" O'Rewin's voice rang in his ears.
"Well, I've seen pretty much that, but does that really work?" Renault asked uncertainly.
He was not idle along the way, and O'Rewin somewhere got a copy of "The Secret of Travel" and forced him to read it before leaving Ulysi, saying that he wanted to give him some common sense of life.
Just as Renault was complaining about the title of the book's girly book in his heart, he found that the author's pen name was signed with a huge flower A, and a shotgun was drawn on the back.
He opened the cover, only to know that this was not a book but a notebook, which told about the geographical environment and customs of various countries on the mainland, from special resources to rare animals.
"This can't be O'Rewin's notebook, what did he go through back then......" Renault couldn't help but shudder as he looked at a passage marked with a red pen on "basic rules of conduct and precautions for staying in a black store".
"This is a note written by our generation and Iziquir," O'Rewin's voice sounded at the right time, and after a moment's hesitation, he added, "The name was obtained by Izikil, and it has nothing to do with us." ”
It turns out that you also know that this name is very weird, so how could you two come up with such a literary word. Renault made up for it, and the two men sat side by side, and together they opened a brown leather book with "The Secret of Travel" written on the cover...... Hey~ The hairs are standing up, okay?
But complaining and complaining, the content of this note is really nothing to say, back then, Olewin and Itzikir seemed to have traveled through most of the territory of the continent, and deliberately sorted out the detailed information of various places, not to mention anything else, just the resources and geographical environment of various places can be sold to the intelligence guild to sell for a sky-high price, not to mention that there are so many knowledge and experiences that ordinary people will not pay attention to at all, it is not an exaggeration to say that this note is a priceless treasure for treasure hunters.
Of course, it is impossible for Renault to sell his master's brainchild, in addition to practicing during the trip, the rest of his time is spent studying this notebook, I have to say that Renault's mind is very strong, he has not put down the notes every day of the journey, and now he has not remembered the information at all.
But fortunately, O'Rewin didn't ask him to be familiar with all this, he just wanted this young man who had never seen the world to get acquainted with human society in advance, after all, the world of the jungle has always been not very friendly to newcomers.
"A few kilometers further south, there's a village." O'Rewin pointed Renault in the right direction.
"Is it that far?" Renaud sighed in disappointment, he had already walked out of Ulysi's border a day earlier, but the notoriety of the "wasteland shore" was so loud that there were no people for hundreds of kilometers around.
O'Rewin said that there was nothing he could do, and Renault gritted his teeth and ran south, sleeping in the wasteland for so long, he was looking forward to the warm rooms of civilized society and the food that had not expired.
Finally, before the sun set, Renault stepped into the small village.
It was not a very wealthy village, there were no decent tall buildings, and most of the villagers' houses were made of wood, and wisps of cooking smoke gushed from the humble chimneys.
Still, it was a paradise for Renault, and he couldn't wait to go to the village, hoping to find some information from a local villager, and find a place to sleep for the night and eat some decent food.
No way, although O'Revan's barbecue skills are first-class, he can only roast meat, and most of the ingredients are strange reptiles, O'Revin's reason is that these meats can improve his physique, but it's really hard to swallow when he thinks of their original appearance.
Reynolds strode forward in high spirits, only to find that all the houses here were closed, only a faint glimmer of light could be glimpsed in the windows, and the streets were deserted and silent as late as night.
Renault looked up at the sky, obviously the sun had just set, there were not a few stars, and the people here must not have rested.
He walked up to the door of a house, knocked the closed door, and said in as polite a voice as possible, "Hello?" Excuse me, is anyone there? ”
There was the sound of footsteps inside the door, but the door did not open, and after a while, a wary voice sounded: "Who are you, is there something wrong?" ”
"I'm a passing magician, looking for a place to rest." Renault listened closely, and there seemed to be more than one person inside, and they were holding guys, I don't know if it was a weapon or a farm tool.
"Magician?" The man's voice suddenly rose and seemed to be a little excited, but he immediately calmed down, "If you want to rest, go to the innermost part of the village to find the village chief, he will arrange it for you." ”
Renault felt that something was wrong and asked tentatively, "Is there anything I can do to help?" ”
"You will know these things when you see the village chief!" The man's tone was still wary, but it was no longer as hostile as it had been, as if his status as a sorcerer had changed his attitude.
"Walking inside from here, the brightest light is the village chief's house." There was no sound in the door.
"It's strange, O'Rewin, is this normal?" Renault asked in his mind.
"No, in general, people will be a little more welcoming, but it's okay to be wary of strangers, didn't that person tell you to go to the village chief here, maybe you'll understand then."
"Well, I hope there will be good food there for the village chief." Renault's primary concern was food.
The two walked for a long time, passing by several black-lit houses, and finally saw a glimmer of light after a corner.
"The brightest room...... Ah, found it, wait, my God, what's going on. ”
They were stunned by what they saw.
