Chapter XXVII

The tavern is not yet at its most lively, and there are only sloppy men who have nothing to do and will drink here all day. Of course, when they drink all the money, they will naturally leave.

"Lady Andrea, I have something I want to ask you about." Orlan was going to ask her if she knew anything about the robbers in red.

"Little Oran, it looks like you've come back from the mountains and must have passed through that village not far from here, right?" Andrea replied helplessly and sadly. The relaxed and cheerful atmosphere in the tavern has cooled down suddenly.

"That's right, a gang of bandits claiming to be the 'Undead Legion' ransacked it. I wonder where they came from. ”

"Wait, old Morgan's silver-haired boy, do you still want to get involved? Do you know what price we paid some time ago to avoid a massacre? Those damned bastards, damned scumbags have robbed me of almost all my possessions, not even a sloppy man! The drunken man at the table not far away smashed his glass and shouted dissatisfiedly.

"Hey bro! Don't you want to live anymore, what if they hear it? The people at the table with him wanted him to shut up immediately.

"As you can see, our village is fortunate to have the Hunter Brotherhood take the lead, and it was only after paying a lot of money and materials that a disaster was averted. Now little Oran, this matter is over, please don't get involved, those robbers kill people without blinking. ”

Andrea persuaded because she knew that Iolan would not leave the village alone. He had done a lot for the village in those years, but most of them didn't appreciate it, after all, they had always been an outlier in their eyes.

"Well, don't worry, I won't mess around. But there has to be a solution to this matter, right? Otherwise, if there is a first, there will be a second time. ”

"But we can't help it, even the noble lords in the town can't control this matter."

"What about the sheriff in the town, and the garrison closest to here, what do the garrisons do?" Lilian, who couldn't sit still, interjected,

"Come on! Chick, do you know where the armor and weapons on those robbers come from? It was taken from the garrison in your mouth, and their group of wine bags and rice bags are no match for the robbers. The drunk couldn't help but interject.

"This ...... What do they think of the laws of the Empire, and where do they put Sutton Lear's face? I can't think of it in my sub-...... There's something like that right under our noses! Lillian was so angry that she almost took out the name of Arnos.

"Hmph, we are in the middle of nowhere, who cares if the emperor is far away."

……

"Oran, what are you going to do?" Lillian followed Orlan out of the tavern.

"Well, wait a minute. We still have something to do, are you coming? Oran led the horse.

"Of course."

They walked to the fork in the center of the village, where there was a sign with a lot of written paper on it.

(I'm Russ Richard, who lives by the river at the entrance of the village, and I'm in some trouble, and those annoying water ghosts must have swam up the village downstream.) Those monsters who love to eat corpse brains now dare to attack even the living. I came out to pee that night and was almost dragged into the water by them. I just hope someone can help me as soon as possible, the reward is negotiable! )

(The exit from the north of Maiyuan Village, where my wheat field is.) I'm busy with the autumn harvest these days, but my people are injured, and now there are not enough people, so I recruit young and strong ...... )

(The sheep on my farm had lost so much during this time that I found those dirty paw prints on the guardrail, and I suspected it was those scavenging monsters that attacked my sheep.) I don't know if they came from the neighboring village, these disgusting monsters have a big appetite now, and they just beg someone to help me, and there is a good reward! )

(There's something terrible in the cemetery that's been wandering, and when I passed by the day before yesterday, I saw the long-tongued monster with a rotting face.) It must be a ghost, I'm sure, only a hanged woman's tongue would be that long! But don't come to me, don't go to that cemetery in the future. )

……

The paper on the billboard was disorganized, and even some of the old ones had been covered with new ones, and it seemed that no one had taken care of them for a long time.

"How are these notices not formal at all, and there is so much nonsense. Do you want to help the villagers solve these problems? Lillian asked Oran.

"Well, when the villagers encounter something that can't be solved, they will basically ask Old Mosen to help them write it on paper and post it here. They say that old Mawson wrote, word for word. ”

"Who is old Mawson?"

"Well, I think it's the only person in the village who knows how to read and is willing to do it."

"Then he must be very old, right?"

"It's almost seventy."

…… The two chatted with each other, and Oran took down three notices that seemed necessary to be done. They are the water ghosts by the river, the scavenging monsters on the farm, and the ghosts of the graveyard.

Orlan plans to go to the farm first, water ghosts usually haunt at night, and killing ghosts requires some other preparations.

"Oh, it's been a long time since I've seen you, I thought you'd never come back, old Morgan's boy." Gabriel, a farmer in a straw hat, has a big beer belly and looks happy to see Oran. After all, Orlan hadn't helped him less before.

"Well, didn't I come back?"

"Okay, I know you're a good hunter, and you dare to go to the mountains alone at a young age, and those monsters won't be difficult for you. Come with me and I'll show you the traces they leave behind. This girl is your helper? With that, he glanced at Lilian, who was on her horse.

Orlan nodded.

"You see it's the marks of them biting my wooden fence, and there's the paw prints, and it seems that these things don't have a lot of strength."

"It's supposed to be two scavengers, and if I'm not mistaken, you should have lost two sheep that night. They don't like to share food with their mates, and they can only attack sheep that are smaller than them. Actually, you should have two more sheepdogs, these guys are not much better than dogs. But don't worry, I'll help you out. ”

"That's for the best, boy. Good luck to you, and when the time comes, you will bring me their paws, and the reward will be very good. ”

Orlan tried to turn over and get on his horse, but Lillian rode forward, leaving Orlan standing there with a bewildered face. What's wrong with her?

"Hey, boy. Your little girlfriend seems to be angry, and it looks like my commission has to be postponed, but if you pay for it...... Well, I think I was so handsome back then, and those girls ...... one by one," said the farmer Gabriel, who put his big belly on the railing and chin teased.

Oran said that the script was annoying too quickly, well, it was like a woman's face turned over when she said it......
