In the morning, the village of Rook offers bacon and ale for breakfast.

Zhou Qingfeng exchanged the ale wine with Todd for bacon to fill his stomach. As for the food reserves, he did not move. Todd was happy to have an extra drink, and everyone was happy.

It's still cold, and the Black Forest is covered in a layer of fog.

The adventurers of Rook Village go out through hanging baskets. According to the orders of the forest ranger Lukanth, they need to go to other nearby human settlements to spy on the situation and contact as many people as possible to act together.

Although he already knew the current situation, Zhou Qingfeng remained silent. It was impossible for him to stay in the village and eat and drink for nothing, and when Todd, with his giant axe, took the initiative to ask Ying to go to the stucco village to investigate, he had to go with him. But there were people who walked with them.

It was the thief who tried to teach Zhou Qingfeng a lesson yesterday.

This guy's head was hidden by a hood, only half of his vulture's face was faintly revealed, and his indifferent gaze swept over Zhou Qingfeng, "I'm McCann, and Lu Kans asked me to accompany you to the plaster village." I'm familiar with it and should be able to help you. ”

Zhou Qingfeng doesn't care. Todd laughed and thanked him.

The roads in the Black Forest are winding and the distance between villages is long. In order to get on the road, all three had to ride horses. Even the bulky and heavy Todd rode a four-hoofed stout cold war horse, and Zhou Qingfeng also divided a small bantam horse.

It's just that he finally got on the horse, but Uncle Zhou didn't know how to ride.

The thief named McCann glanced at Zhou Qingfeng and said that he was going to explore the way, so he rode away first. Todd looked at Zhou Qingfeng, who was still stunned, and asked, "What are you waiting for?" ”

Zhou Qingfeng held the reins and clamped the horse's belly.

But the horse only shook his head and didn't go away at all.

"You don't know how to ride a horse?" Todd saw it and shouted in surprise: "Victor, you must learn to ride a horse, otherwise you won't even be able to run away in the future." ”

Zhou Qingfeng naturally doesn't know how to ride a horse. The barbarian didn't bother to talk nonsense, stepped forward and grabbed the reins in Zhou Qingfeng's hand, and ran with him. Without a lot of effort, the speed of the two horses increased, and they galloped through the undulating mountains and forests.

The horseback was extremely bumpy, and Zhou Qingfeng's ass was almost shattered in a few clicks. He had to lower his head when the oncoming wind blew, and it felt like he was standing at the cusp of the wind and waves, and he could fall down at any time.

But now the horse's speed is not low, and the blood flow is light when the head breaks when he falls......

If your life is not good, your neck will be twisted.

"Boy, you don't know how to ride a horse?" Cirek, who lived and died with Zhou Qingfeng, also noticed the abnormality, "Clamp the horse's belly quickly, otherwise you will fall down." I don't want to be the first god to fall to my death for riding a horse, I'm going to die laughing. ”

Zhou Qingfeng's little face was pale and drenched in cold sweat. He was clinging to the horse's neck, trying to keep his balance.

The bantam horse was strangled by the neck, which was naturally very uncomfortable, and kept jumping up and struggling, just wanting to overturn Zhou Qingfeng. forced Zhou Qingfeng to work harder and tighten tighter.

And so the situation got worse and worse......

"Please, boy, don't look for death like this. I beg you to loosen the horse's neck quickly, or the horse will go berserk. Cirek was terrified, and had to open his mouth to instruct Zhou Qingfeng on how to ride a horse. Otherwise, this kid will really die in a mess.

Uncle Zhou's buttocks are about to be turned into eight petals, and the inner thighs are hot and painful. But he also knew that if he didn't do it, he would be thrown down sooner or later.

Todd couldn't stop looking back and instructed Zhou Qingfeng how to ride a horse. But this big guy will only say 'take it easy', 'don't push too hard', 'you're stiff', but he just won't slow down.

Instead, Ciric taught in more detail, "Boy, breathe, hold your breath steady." I beg you to grab the saddle first, and stop strangling the horse's neck. Adjust your sitting position, you have to move forward with the horse. ”

After teaching for a long time, Zhou Qingfeng didn't improve his horseback riding ability. But at least he learned not to be too scared on horseback, and let go of the poor bantam's neck, stepped on the stirrup, and clamped the horse's belly.

After running in the forest for about two hours, I finally got to the place.

Standing in a clearing at the edge of the forest, the thief McCann waved at Todd, then pointed to a forest in front of him, and said, "I've seen the road ahead, and there is no warning in the plaster village. We can get closer to the village by going around it. ”

Todd let out a low 'um' in approval.

Zhou Qingfeng was uncomfortable with his unbearable pain in his butt and thighs, but he could hear McCann's words, from his tone, audio, gestures, eyes, facial expressions, all the factors combined......

'Recognize lies'.

The test passed, the identification was successful, and this guy was lying.

From the image point of view, McCann is much more professional than the fledgling Zhou Qingfeng. He wore a tight, light leather suit to avoid stumbling during the movement, a perforated belt around his waist, and various odds and pieces of tools and weapons were hung on his head in separate categories.

Even the hood McCann wears is particular to hide his face, and movement in the woods reduces the interference of branches, and can be removed if necessary without affecting the perception of the outside world.

In comparison, Uncle Zhou only has a thin stabbing sword that does not even have a scabbard, and it can only be inserted diagonally on his belt. How amateurish this look, it's simply the nature of playing tickets.

However, the passive skill of 'Identifying Lies' brought a little difference to Zhou Qingfeng. When he realized that McCann was lying, the latter flashed a faint warning red light in his eyes, which lit up for a while before dissipating.

There's something wrong with this guy.

"We left the horses behind and walked around the woods into the confines of the stucco village. There may be some traps in the woods, so you'd better keep up with me. "McCann drilled into the woods after he finished speaking, and his 'shadow hiding' skill made him like a fish in water, and it was difficult to find him.

Todd only said 'um' and dismounted and followed closely with his great axe.

Zhou Qingfeng was much more troublesome, he had to endure the pain in his inner thigh and fall off the horse's back, and even staggered to walk after landing, he had to spread his legs and move like a duck.

Looking at this pace, you know that you can't expect Zhou Qingfeng to do anything. Todd sighed, "Victor, you stay and guard the horses." I'm going to see what's going on in Stucco Village, and I'll be back before dark. ”

"Didn't you say you were going to take revenge? I'm afraid you're going to rush straight into that village. Zhou Qingfeng said.

Todd grinned, "Old Xius has more than a hundred subordinates in the Morco Village, and his strength is no worse than that of the Raven Village. Only a fool would storm that impregnable forest fortress. I'm here to scout today, and I'm not going to do anything about it. ”

"Is that McCann reliable?" Zhou Qingfeng asked again.

Todd was stunned, then laughed a few times, and did not answer directly. He told again, 'Watch the horses,' and turned and went into the woods.

Zhou Qingfeng was the only one left in the clearing in the forest.
