Chapter 10: The Robbery in Creek Town
Because Zhang Lin and Alice were blindly delayed, when the three of them came to the lumberyard, Larov had already finished explaining what happened today with his sister, and they happened to meet the three of them head-on.
"Sister Gordo, I hit a lot of prey today!"
Before Larov could say anything, little Lori ran over with her pile of things.
"It's Alice, did you hit this bear too?" The young woman next to Larov, dressed as an ordinary peasant woman, smiled when she saw Alice's arrival, and although she was surprised by the size of the giant bear, she was a little surprised, it seems that Alice has done similar things in the past.
"Can I change more bread, now that Master Alice is here, one more person needs to eat more." Alice looked at Zhang Lin, and then gestured with her finger to Goerdo.
"No problem, I owe you a lot." Gordo agreed to Alice with a smile, then looked at Zhang Lin with some confusion and asked, "Are you Alice's master?" ”
"Oh, hello madam, my name is Zhang Lin, I'm Alice's brother, I just found her yesterday, she's so naughty and running around, thank you for taking care of her during this time." Zhang Lin continued to use the brother and sister's statement, although Alice wanted to defend when she heard it, but he held her head down and didn't say it.
"No, no, no, I'm just a countryman, and I don't deserve to be called a lady, so you can just call me sister like Alice." The women in this world are all young, and it is not much of a problem to call her sister, and Zhang Lin accepted this setting.
To be honest, in the eyes of outsiders, Zhang Lin and Alice don't look like brothers and sisters, but as outsiders, this point doesn't need to be studied too deeply, and Zhang Lin exchanged a few polite words, and talked about some things about Alice, it sounds like Alice is still quite popular with the townspeople in Ximu Town.
And during the conversation, Zhang Lin also learned that it was not the other party who deliberately depressed the value of Alice's prey, but Alice's own insistence on enough food to eat every time, sure enough, even if she is the earliest existence of the temple of time and space, children are children, and this little Lori has never been linked to interests like adults.
"Then this must be the Lady Kashia who saved my brother, right?" Gordo turned his attention to Kathia, who had been silent on the sidelines.
"Yes, sister, she is the one who saved me and Hawada." Larov, who had been unable to interject, immediately introduced to Gordo: "If it weren't for her, you wouldn't have seen me." ”
"It's nothing, after all, we're all people who suffer together." Keshia graciously brought the matter over.
The group was polite to each other, and Gordo even took out the key to his house and handed it to Kashia, saying that he could make this place his home and that he could come back at any time, and invited everyone to sit at home.
In Zhang Lin's opinion, this act of giving away his own keys at every turn thought it was a setting in the game, but he didn't expect it to appear in reality, is the aura of the protagonist of Kexia really so omnipotent.
After a while, Gordo called her husband Hood, who had been working in the sawmill, and counted the gold coins that Alice had brought in exchange for the prey, and asked him to hand them over to Zhang Lin.
The gold coins are not big, just like ordinary coins, with rough heads printed on them, which seem to be the founding emperor of the Septine Dynasty, there are hundreds of them, and they are packaged in a small leather package, these gold coins can be used for ordinary people in the sky for several years, Hood listened to Gordo's words and took out the money without hesitation, which made Zhang Lin's opinion of their family change greatly.
After talking to a few people, Hood called a few strong men to pull away the pile of small hill-like prey and returned to work in the sawmill, while Gordo led Zhang Lin and his younger brother Larov in the direction of his house.
Looking back at the two men who were observing the town under Alice's guidance, Gordo, who was walking ahead, whispered to her brother, "Do they have any hope of joining or helping Stormcloak?" ”
"I'm sorry, sister, I asked them, but they don't seem to have this inclination, but they are also not interested in the Empire."
"That's fine, it's not bad if you don't help each other, but try to fight for it, the people of Skyrim need the victory that Ufric brings."
The brother and sister exchanged ears and ears not without Zhang Lin's attention, but Zhang Lin, who was familiar with the plot of the game, also knew what they were planning so he didn't care.
At this moment, a young woman rushed out of a grocery store in the center of the town, and a young man who looked like a boss behind her took her arm and said, "No, sister, you can't take risks, you can't catch thieves!" "It's quite loud, and it attracts a lot of people's attention.
"Hey, that's Sister Kemira." Xiao Lori saw the appearance of the woman who was pulled clearly, and ran over alone without caring about Zhang Lin and Kexia, and the two had no choice but to follow.
"So what do you want me to do, huh? Tell me about it! Kemira, who was in Lori's mouth, stopped and asked angrily at his brother.
"Sister Camilla, what's going on?" That's when Alice's voice interjected.
At the same time, Zhang Lin and Kexia also ran over and stood beside Alice, and the two siblings who were arguing noticed that someone was coming.
"Oh, Sister Alice, and two, customers? I'm sorry to hear that. When Kemira saw the cute little Lori, she was in a slightly better mood and began to tell what had happened.
Just this morning, a gang of robbers broke into the general store owned by Kemira's brother Lukan and robbed an important item, a dragon claw made of gold, which she wanted to retrieve, but her brother would not let her live, because the bandits were stationed in an ancient tomb in the Hanluo Mountains opposite the town of Creekwood, which was said to be very dangerous.
"We can help, Alice can fight the bad guys!" Little Lori was the first to shout, and then said to Zhang Lin: "Master, can we go?" ”
Zhang Lin nodded, indicating that he could.
"Then I'......" As soon as Keshiya spoke, Zhang Lin interrupted: "You are also with us." ”
Kashia, who had wanted to say that she wanted to go together, stopped talking and waited silently.
"Great, if someone helps, don't worry, if you can get it back, I'll pay you." Seeing that someone was willing to help, then his sister didn't have to take risks, Lu Kan was obviously very happy.
"Alright, Sister Alice, I'll leave it to you." It seems that Kemira is quite confident in the ability of little Lori, and she doesn't know what shocking things this little guy has done in the town in addition to hunting.
"Don't worry, it's absolutely fine with Alice." Little Lori proudly puffed up her small chest, and then ran out impatiently, forgetting even her own master.
But Zhang Lin is not worried, little Lori doesn't know that Lu will definitely wait for them, he asked Kemira and Lukan about some information about the ancient tomb, after all, it is not a bad thing to know more, I really hope that Zhang Lin and the others can come back safely, Kemira also gave Zhang Lin a few bottles of healing potions worth dozens of gold coins under her brother's reluctant expression.
When Zhang Lin and Kexia left the grocery store and were about to look for Alice, they found that the three of them were missing, and the two brothers and sisters came to them, and Zhang Lin told them about the incident, saying that he would rush back before dinner.
Larov also wanted to help, but Zhang Lin and Keshia refused on the grounds that his injuries had not healed, and Larov had to give up.
The two came to the bridgehead at the front gate of Ximu Town, and Xiao Lori was already waiting impatiently, so Zhang Lin had to comfort her.
"Let's go!" After knowing the direction, little Lori shouted and ran out first.
