Pressing down the short bow, Leia gasped slightly, her face a little pale.

Obviously, the previous arrow consumed her a lot.

Turning off the insurance of the Galaxy K1, Jiang Feng looked at her and asked.

"When will you still have the skills?"

"This is an elven technique that uses runes to seal magic on silver arrows and activate them through the power of blood, at the cost of consuming a lot of energy. There are only three silver arrows that Master Krees gave me, and the one I used was the wind. ”

As she spoke, Leia's body shook slightly, and she reached out to hold on to the rock wall next to her.

"Are you alright?"

“…… I'm fine, we have to get out of here as soon as possible. With the short bow on her shoulder, Leia stared at the dragon lizard on the ground, "I always felt that this thing was here, it didn't look like an accident. ”

"I think so too." Jiang Feng nodded.

According to genetic analysis, dragon lizards have 31% of the genes of swamp lizards, and their living habits should be more inclined to moist swamp or wetland environments. Boulder City is a swamp within a radius of eight miles, not to mention a large forest, either bare loess or tumbleweeds everywhere, and there is no environment for dragon lizards to live in.

Putting the body of the dragon lizard into the space ring, Jiang Feng was ready to wait until he had time to dissect the material.

After cleaning up the battlefield, the two hurriedly extinguished the campfire and prepared to rush back to Boulder City overnight.

Because in the previous battle, Jiang Feng's horse was caught up in the aftermath of the war and had its throat cut by the dragon lizard's claws, so the two could only share a horse.

Holding the reins in his hand, Jiang Feng, who was riding on the horse, could clearly feel that Leia, who was sitting behind him, was full of vigilance against him.

"Actually, you don't have to be so nervous, it's okay to sleep for a while."

“……”

Leia didn't speak, still clutching Jiang Feng's cloak stiffly, while keeping a subtle distance from his back.

Shrugging his shoulders and giving up his persuasion to Leia, Jiang Feng waved the reins in his hand and rushed in the direction of Boulder City.

There was nothing to say about the bumps along the way, and there was not much conversation between the two.

It may indeed be tired, Jiang Feng felt the hand holding his cloak gradually lose the initial stiffness. It didn't take long for the soft thing to lean against his back, and the breathing behind his back gradually evened out.

A halo of dawn appeared on the horizon, and the walls of Megalith City finally appeared in Jiang Feng's sight.

"We're here."

There was no response behind him.

Feeling the sound of even breathing behind him, Jiang Feng turned his face slightly.

The pretty face, unpowdered, was gilded with a faint gold edge by the halo of dawn. There seems to be some kind of serene charm that makes it impossible to take your eyes off the tranquil sleeping face. I have to admit that the sisters are really alike, especially when they are asleep, they are simply carved out of a mold.

Eyelashes moved slightly, and Leia slowly opened her eyes.

Noticing Jiang Feng's gaze, she asked in that cold voice.

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, you had a mosquito on your nose just now......"

Jiang Feng suddenly felt that his excuse was a bit ruinous, if he replaced mosquitoes with butterflies, maybe it would sound better.

Leia didn't seem to care about that, though, because she didn't mean to answer at all.

Shrugging his shoulders, Jiang Feng turned his head and concentrated on his journey.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but before he looked away from her cheeks, he vaguely glimpsed a hint of a twilight glow on his gold-rimmed cheeks......

[Do I need to call up the playback?] 】

“……”

The artistic conception in my heart is gone.

Sometimes, Jiang Feng really feels that this kind of intimate service of Zhinao is too frequent and quite in the way.

……

Approaching Boulder City, Jiang Feng dismounted.

Walking on the dirt road outside the city, before I got close to the city gate, I felt that the atmosphere here was a little solemn.

The soldiers on duty standing on the gatehouse were obviously several times the same as they had been two days ago, and their equipment was neatly dressed, not as loose as it had been some time before. Not only that, but there was a long queue at the gates of the city, full of people and carriages waiting to enter the city. Originally, the city gate had been opened at this time, but now not only was the gate closed, but even the drawbridge at the city gate had not been lowered.

"What are you doing?"

"That's right, why don't you open the door yet."

Just as the crowd outside the city was talking, the drawbridge slowly lowered.

The crowd subconsciously moved forward, but was blocked back by the guards who came out of the city.

"It's all gone! It's all scattered! A special decree signed by the City Hall states that Boulder City will be closed for three days in order to apprehend wanted fugitives in the city. After three days, it will be open at a later date! As he spoke impatiently, the helmet-wearing captain of the guard made a driving motion and ordered his men to post the notice on the wooden sign at the door.

Hearing that the city gates were not open today, the crowd was in an uproar.

"What the hell!"

"If you can't open it, you won't open it, how can it be like this!"

However, the captain of the guard paid no attention to these men, and stood in the doorway with soldiers armed with spears. Although the crowd was angry, they suddenly lost their temper in the face of the shiny spear tips and the bows and arrows on the city wall.

Except for those who were in a hurry to get to the market, or those who were in a hurry to gather at the gates, most of them dispersed from the gates.

Squeezing from the crowd to the front, the merchant in the flat hat smiled and pulled out a bag of silver coins from his bosom.

"Your Excellency, you see, the goods of my caravan must be delivered to the trading post before noon, can it be convenient?"

However, the captain of the guard did not even look at the bag of silver coins.

"Get out!"

The merchant was in a hurry, and sweat broke down in his head.

After walking in Boulder City for so many years, it was the first time he had seen such an incorruptible city gate guard.

"Your Excellency, you, listen to me, if you are too little......"

"I'll tell you to, I don't want to say it a third time." The captain of the guard said coldly.

Frightened by the look, the merchant took two steps back, not daring to mention the matter of entering the city, and returned to his caravan in despair.

He wasn't the only one, but the expressions on the faces of many people at the door. For these caravans, staying outside the city for one more day means paying the mercenary group an extra day's wages and incurring liquidated damages for delayed deliveries. Such an unwarranted calamity, on anyone, will not feel good in the heart.

Obviously, something happened last night.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Feng casually found a man standing next to the caravan and asked about the situation here.

"What's going on here? What is the situation with wanted criminals? ”

"I don't know the specifics, but I heard that last night the mayor ordered the siege of the city hall, and captured the evidence of colluding with the governor to overthrow Boulder City and restore the lord's rule in Boulder City......" The merchant looked bitter, "I'm afraid this Boulder City is about to change." ”

With a slight frown on his brows, Jiang Feng suddenly thought that Celita seemed to be still in the city, and she was living in the Governor's Mansion. Unexpectedly, he had only been away for two days, and such earth-shaking changes had taken place in Boulder City.

"What's the cargo on your caravan?"

"It's all grains, mainly barley, and nongba. The crops that can be cultivated in Boulder City are very limited, and the food is mainly imported from the city-states in the southern part of the Thorn Wastes, outside the borders. I was expecting to make a fortune before the war burned here, but who would have thought that would happen to me. The merchant shook his head and said with a bitter look on his face.

Unable to help the merchant's situation, Jiang Feng and Leia walked in the direction of the hotel.

Back at the hotel, Jiang Feng was about to lead the horse into the stable, when he suddenly noticed that there was only one carriage left in it. Looking at the door of the hotel next to me, I don't know why, it's already getting close, and the door is still tightly closed.

Frowning slightly, Jiang Feng was about to open the door.

At this time, a little boy suddenly trotted towards Jiang Feng from across the street.

"Are you a wizard?"

"What's the matter?" Looking at the little boy standing in front of him, Jiang Feng asked.

"Someone asked me to tell you that the people who live here moved to a nearby barracks last night." The boy looked at Jiang Feng a little timidly, and said quickly, "She also told me that if I told you this news, you would pay me two silver coins. ”

"She's right." Jiang Feng nodded, took out four UBS coins and threw them to the boy, "I'll give you four, don't tell anyone that I've been here, remember?" ”

Taking the coin, the boy nodded vigorously, turned and ran away.

Walking next to Jiang Feng, Leia also noticed that something was wrong here, and asked with a frown.

"What the hell is going on?"

"Let's go back to the barracks," Jiang Feng said casually, glancing at the hotel, "We may be in trouble." ”
