Chapter 4: Perfunctory

It is because history records the power of the Saint Crystal Demon Suit, and countless powerful human beings on the Spirit Snow Continent want to get a Saint Crystal Demon Suit.

Of course, for Zheng Qiankun and Shishi, the two rookie demon hunters, they would be satisfied with having a copper sword and a copper armor.

The copper sword is one hundred copper coins, and the copper armor is also one hundred copper coins, which is really a lot of money for Zheng Qiankun and Shishi, two penniless beggars.

If Zheng Qiankun and Shi continue to beg, if it goes well, they may be able to buy copper armor and copper swords in a few months.

However, Zheng Qiankun and Shi have decided not to be beggars.

Therefore, after leaving the mercenary market, Zheng Qiankun and Shi are now worried about the equipment.

With a dogtail in his mouth, he sat on a bench in a ruined church.

"Zheng Qiankun, otherwise, let's go to the blacksmith shop and steal some equipment. The stone said to Zheng Qiankun beside him.

"Stealing the blacksmith shop?!" Zheng Qiankun was a little surprised, "Have you forgotten that the uncle almost cut off your hand last time!"

"It was an accident! I don't believe he found it this time. ”

"Forget it, I haven't heard of the blacksmith shop being stolen by anyone. ”

"What then? Beg again?"

"We're demon hunters!not beggars!!" Zheng Qiankun was a little excited.

"Alright, alright! Demon Hunter...... It's not good to react so much. ”

Bored and biting the dogtail grass in his mouth, the stone was speechless to Zheng Qiankun.

Don't beg, don't steal, where does that gear come from?

Really! The Demon Hunter needs to eat, too!

No matter!

Steal it tonight!

The stone is going to do this.

It's just that Zheng Qiankun, who has been with the stone for three years, immediately saw what the stone was thinking.

"Don't you plan to steal the blacksmith at night!"

"Good ......" stone is very perfunctory.

※※※

A bright moon hung in the sky, and the pale moonlight illuminated the earth...... A few intermittent insect chirps echoed through the night.

It was late at night, and Zheng Qiankun, covered with straw mats, slept on a 'wooden bed' made up of several old benches.

The stone, who was supposed to be asleep with his eyes closed, opened his eyes......

turned around and saw that Zheng Qiankun was asleep, and the stone tiptoed out of bed.

There was some sand on the floor of the old church, and on this quiet night, the stone made a slight rustling sound with every step.

The 'rustling' sound was not very loud, and it didn't seem to be enough to wake Zheng Qiankun.

It's just that when the stone walked to the church door, Zheng Qiankun woke up.

"Stone!"

Hearing this voice, the stone knew that something was in trouble.

"Uh...... ......Shhhh Don't get me wrong, I'm just going to shhhhh Stone said.

"Hush?" Zheng Qiankun said, "the way you go to boo is really special...... Be like a thief!"

"I'm not afraid to wake you up. ”

"Come less!"

As he spoke, Zheng Qiankun picked up the shovel in the corner.

It's a very old shovel...... Rusty.

Seeing Zheng Qiankun walking towards him with a shovel, the stone was frightened.

"Wow, even if you're a thief, you don't have to hit me with a shovel, do you?"

"The ghost has time to hit you...... We steal and go. ”

Stone: "!?"

※※※

"No, you're stealing all these people's things?!" Stone was a little scared.

"What are you afraid of stealing from these people and not being found out by them?!" Zheng Qiankun said.

"That being said, though, it always feels hairy. ”

"What a hair, what a hair, you won't be hairy if you steal things from living people, and you won't be hairy if you steal things from dead people!"

“......”

Sometimes, Zheng Qiankun's words can always make the stone speechless.

Picking up the shovel, Zheng Qiankun began to shovel soil in front of a cemetery.

Stupidly stood aside...... Stealing dead people's things, the stone is really uncomfortable.

"Look, look, help!" Zheng Qiankun was very unhappy with the 'timid' stone now.

The guy who even dared to steal from the blacksmith shop was afraid of stealing dead people's things like this, Zheng Qiankun really couldn't figure it out.

You know, the blacksmith has privileges in the Soyal Empire...... The thief who stole the blacksmith shop was caught red-handed, and the owner of the blacksmith shop could cut off their hands without any responsibility.

This is why it is rare to hear about the theft of weapons from blacksmiths in the Soyal Empire.

Zheng Qiankun...... Let's go......" Stone said.

I can see that it is no use to ask the stone to help.

Regardless of the stones, Zheng Qiankun continued to dig graves.

Soon, under the illumination of the moonlight, Zheng Qiankun could already see the red wooden coffin.

The shovel was moved one after another, and a complete wooden coffin appeared in front of Zheng Qiankun and Shishi.

When the wooden coffin appeared in front of the stone in its entirety, the stone was really startled.

This is not because the stone is afraid of the dead, but because of the pattern on the wooden coffin.

On the wooden coffin, two long swords crossed together to form a large 'X'.

Although Shi was a relatively ignorant beggar, he still knew what the 'X' pattern on the wooden coffin represented.

"The Emperor...... Home knight?!"

As he said these words, the stone shuddered.

"These people's things can't be stolen! ...... will be beheaded," the stone warned Zheng Qiankun.

To the stone's surprise, Zheng Qiankun gave him a confident smile.

"Don't worry! No one knows that the royal knights are buried in this deserted tomb...... They would only think that this desolate tomb belonged to a beggar. ”

As soon as Zheng Qiankun said this, Shi felt that something was wrong.

Also!

The cemeteries of the royal knights are all magnificent, and there are also people from the empire who guard them.

And the cemetery of this royal knight is shabby and pitiful, and there is not even a tombstone.

However, the stone thought again......

The 'X' on the coffin is clearly a sign of royal knighthood...... How could a royal knight be buried in this deserted tomb?

Also, how did Zheng Qiankun know that a royal knight was buried here?!

It should have seen the doubts of the stone, Zheng Qiankun said to the stone.

"The old man told me...... This royal rider was buried with his own hands. Zheng Qiankun said.

"Is that the old beggar who raised you?" the stone was surprised.

"That's right, that's what the old man told me, when he was alive, he came to worship every year!"

"Why does that old man come here every year to worship, and what does he have to do with this royal knight?"

"I don't know! The old man didn't say much to me, he only said that he was only sorry for this person in his life. ”

"Could it be...... The old man used to be a member of the Royal Knights?!"

"How could it be! He's just an old beggar. ”

That old man doesn't look like a royal knight. ”

"Stop talking nonsense!

As he spoke, Zheng Qiankun inserted the shovel into the wooden coffin.

After much hesitation, Stone came over to help.

Shi and Zheng Qiankun held the shovel together, and the two pressed down hard......

Click!

With a crisp sound, the shovel broke.

Although the shovel was broken, the wooden coffin was still pried open by Zheng Qiankun and the stone.

The two of them worked together to push the coffin off the wooden coffin......

The moment the coffin was pushed open, Zheng Qiankun and the stone smelled a strong stench.

There was a tacit understanding, and the two hurriedly ran to the side......

With an 'evil' sound, both of them vomited.

After spitting up several mouthfuls, Zheng Qiankun and Shi felt a little better against their stomachs.
