Chapter Fifty-Seven: The Well of Bitter Water

"Ding~!"

System prompt: Do you accept the task [Cutting Grass and Eradicating Roots]?

There was actually a follow-up mission, which was a big surprise, and I decisively chose to accept it.

"Ding~!"

System Prompt: You accept the quest [Cutting the Grass and Eradicating the Roots] (the current task difficulty is 900), the task content: find and try to kill the leader of the horse thief, bring back his head as proof, and truly eradicate the bandits in the bloodstained land, and you will receive a rich reward for completing the task. Quest Tip: There seem to be signs of thieves in the area of the Bitter Well recently, so you might as well check it out there.

After accepting the task, the system automatically gave me the approximate coordinates of the horse thief leader, which saved me a lot of effort in searching.

I pulled out the large map, found the general direction of the Kushui Well, and headed for the Kushui Well with a spear on my back.

In less than half an hour, a settlement in the middle of the desert appeared in front of me. The size of this settlement is small, with just over 100 households.

"Ding~!"

System Prompt: You have found the map [Bitter Water Well].

Approaching the bitter water well, I suddenly felt that this place was different from the ordinary settlement, there was a bandit that could not be concealed inside and out, and there were two minions with scimitars on their backs at the door, it seemed that this place was indeed the base camp of horse thieves, no wonder the banditry was so heavy.

When the two minions saw me, they were stunned for a moment, and then shouted, "That damn adventurer is back, go and tell the boss." ”

I was depressed, I was obviously the first time I had come to this place, and after those two guys saw me, they seemed to have seen some great enemy.

Before I could figure it out, there was a chaotic sound of horses' hooves in the horse thief's base, accompanied by the horse thief's whistle and shout. I saw a group of black horse thieves galloping out of it on tall horses, and a knight wearing armor and holding a spear in his hand was probably the leader of this group of horse thieves.

As soon as I saw the knight's spear, I understood what was all about.

So many horse thieves rushed out like a swarm, even if I had the ability, I couldn't beat it, I had no choice but to run away.

The horse thieves shouted and chased after them.

There was an open desert area in front of me, and if I kept running like this, it wouldn't be long before I was caught up by the other party, so I wasn't so stupid, and I changed direction and circled around in a semicircle, and ran to the other side of the thief's den.

The horse thieves immediately turned their horses around and chased after me, and I rushed to the base of the wall of the horse thieves' den in three steps and two steps, and jumped over the low wall.

"Bow your head, damned adventurer." Two minions within the walls swung their scimitars at me.

I can't imagine that this minion who is talking is still a literary young man, and when ordinary people encounter enemies and want each other to die, they usually say "Go die!" And just now he dragged a sentence in Chinese "bow your head", which also means death.

Of course I can't bow my head, on the contrary, I want their boss to bow down, because their boss's head is still more valuable to me now.

I hurriedly crossed the shield to block the scimitars of the two minions, and the spear in my hand quickly played the Ice Stabbing skill, and the minion on the right was decisively hit, and the blood and blood only dropped by about 20%. It seems that the little minions in the horse thief den are more powerful than the horse thieves who go out to rob houses and rob houses, which is the same reason that most of the guards in the palace are stronger than the soldiers on the front line of the battlefield.

Seeing that the horse thieves behind me were about to cross the low wall, I didn't have time to entangle with these two minions, and in the danger of being stabbed by each other, I quickly locked onto the corner of a stone house in front of me and charged.

Two big MISS words floated from his head in a row, and as luck would have it, he charged to get rid of those two minions while also missing their attacks by the way.

The two minions roared, turned and brandished their scimitars and chased after me.

The next moment their cries choked in their throats, trampled into flesh by the iron hooves of the large group of horse thieves who came after them.

The corners of my mouth twitched, the skill of these horse thieves was unflattering, and if I were caught up by them, I might end up like those two minions.

Horse thieves are fast, especially on hard ground paved with stone slabs, at least about thirty percent faster than in soft sand.

I didn't care so much, so I turned around and blasted open a closed wooden door next to me and dodged in.

In the dim light, a little boy slashed at me with a scimitar in his hand, "Boom! With a thud, the blade of the scimitar sparked a faint spark above my breastplate, and less than double-digit damage numbers floated up on my head.

I glanced at the horse thief kid and saw the horror in his eyes.

I smashed the little horse thief boy with a shield, this evil child who knew from childhood to inherit his father's business will also be a scourge when he is alive, but it seems that this matter is not in my hands, and I am only responsible for killing those adult horse thieves.

There was a continuous sound of footsteps landing outside the door, and the stone houses were too short for the horse thieves to rush in on horseback, so they had to dismount and walk.

I glanced into the inner part of the stone house, and there was light coming in through the window, and it seemed that this stone house was not a place to stay for long, and if I had guarded the door, the horse thieves would have crept in through the window and attacked me exceptionally. Thinking of this, I immediately ran to the back room, and quickly walked through the window.

I had just jumped out of the window when four or five horse thieves spun out from the other side of the wall, and they all dismounted and rushed towards me with cutlasses in their hands.

Not daring to fight, I smashed the wooden window of another stone house opposite with one shot, and got in before the horse thieves could kill them.

An old woman came at me with a cane and smashed my helmet with a thud, and the families of these horse thieves were really enemies of me.

It is estimated that the players who were chased and killed by monsters like street rats in the game,I'm also unprecedented.,It's all caused by Pi Candy Zhang.。 Of course, if you carefully calculate the causal cycle, I am also responsible for this.

I slapped the old woman with another shield and stepped over her, this vicious old woman may not have done any less bad things, but this matter is also not my responsibility, I am only responsible for killing those horse thieves in the prime of life.

I changed several stone houses in a row, stunned the families of several horse thieves along the way, and finally successfully got rid of those horse thieves.

While they will certainly search the entire den to find out where I am hiding, to do so will inevitably involve dispersing the personnel, and once they are dispersed, I will be safe. As long as I can stay here until the night, I'm sure I'll stir up this den of sin.

The ratio of game time to real time is 1:4, according to this ratio, it will be dark in the game as long as it takes another hour, and this hour, I happened to go offline to eat, rest, go to the toilet or something.

I said hello to Lin Xiaoran and asked her to go offline for dinner, Lin Xiaoran didn't know what she was busy with, and hurriedly replied: "Help me pack." ”

I went to the small restaurant downstairs and ordered a quick snack to eat by myself, but I helped Lin Xiaoran pack a pot of spicy bullfrogs, a plate of greens and a bowl of seaweed egg drop soup.

You can be stingy with yourself, but you must be generous to your relatives and friends, this is my consumption values, and I don't think I can change it in this life.

After eating, I took back the things that Lin Xiaoran had packed, and to see that it was still early, I leisurely crossed my feet on the sofa and read the newspaper.

Lin Xiaoran, a chick who is busy playing games every day, usually has no time to read the newspaper, but she still insists on subscribing to a local evening newspaper.

For this reason, I once wondered if her motive for ordering the newspaper was because the little brother in charge of delivering the newspaper in this area looked too much like Professor Du? Lin Xiaoran snorted at this, and told me, as a descendant of a businessman, that I must develop the habit of reading the newspaper every day, so that I can keep abreast of the latest national and local economic policies. And she also told me that a lot of the content of the report actually only needs to read the headline, and there is no need to read the content, so it doesn't take much time to read such a newspaper.

As a migrant worker, I am not yet at the level of caring about the country's economic policies, so when I have time to read newspapers, I am more concerned about social news and entertainment gossip.

There's a lot of newspaper content today.

"240 people who lost their independence went to Beijing to apply for state compensation, saying that they could not afford the risk of family planning." This topic is too heavy to comment on.

Continue to read the next article: "The veteran of the Volunteer Army went to Argentina to become the president's brother-in-law, sitting on 600,000 acres of land. ”

This Nima is definitely a classic case of Diaosi's counterattack.,It's a pity that I'm writing online games.,Otherwise, it's definitely a good theme.。

"Chinese fishermen docked on Nansha Island to escape the winds and were asked to leave by foreign troops."

TNND does not regard the lives of our people as human lives, and if I were the president of the country, I would send troops to beat them until they were completely convinced.

Of course, a shallow guy like me will not be the president of the country for ten lifetimes, so I will not have the opportunity to send troops to attack others.

"The three sisters and brothers don't marry or marry, and they take care of their mother for 9 years."

Now there are very few filial young people like this, but I don't understand, is there a conflict between taking care of a mother and marriage?

Looking at the whole report in detail, the result is that the article only mentions the paralysis of the mother of the third siblings, and why it is not clear why the mother can't get married after taking care of the mother, and now these reporters ......

……

At this time, Lin Xiaoran pushed the door and came out of the room, saw me holding a newspaper in my hand, and said with a smile: "Idiot, so leisurely, what about reading the newspaper?" ”

"Hehe, I'm just blind."

"Newspapers can only be read blindly, and reading them seriously is a waste of time in Lang."

I deeply agreed with her words, pointed to the food on the coffee table and said, "That, you eat first, I'm online." ”

"Why don't you eat together?" Lin Xiaoran grabbed a bullfrog leg with his hand and stuffed it into his mouth.

I said, "No, it's almost time, I'm going to go online and kill a boss first." ”
