"Humans are really interesting creatures, and no matter how small a group is, they have extremely complex social content. ”

Langdon slumped in his chair and smiled.

This was originally a courtyard for the village chief Brooke, but now it belongs to him completely, in fact, he didn't think about changing it back when he moved in, and after that incident, Brooke would never think about going back again.

Langdon was talking about the contents of the piece of paper he was holding.

Although Langdon and Lao Wang went separately, with Lao Wang's light skills, even if they still carried a burden, they could easily arrive before Langdon.

The reason why he arrived three days later than Langdon was, of course, because Langdon gave Lao Wang other tasks - to investigate the specific situation of the residents of this village.

The village is not big, and there are not many people, but it does not mean that their relationship is limited to the village, although because in the three areas, the harvest benefits a lot more than other places, but after all, this place is too deserted, and the older people are fine, but the young people are still more willing to go out and break through.

Although Langdon is not afraid of them, more is better than less, and Langdon doesn't want to cause so much trouble, after all, he has something to do here, but he doesn't have so much time to waste time on these villagers.

Therefore, he asked Lao Wang to find out the relationship chain of these people first, so he asked Hog Thunder to make a move, leaving no trace of mercy at all.

However, it now seems that it is still in trouble.

What was recorded on that piece of paper was the relationship with the villagers that the king had heard about in the city of Blue Rose and the town of the barony next to the village.

These are basically those young people who have left the village, some of them are very unsatisfactory, working as a handyman in the city to move bricks or something, but there are also a few people who are quite good, and the best one of them has achieved the position of the lord of Blue Rose City, and the position of the second knight of the marquis whose fief covers a large area of this barony, and it is even likely to be rewarded again by the marquis in the near future and become the lord of a new knighthood.

This kind of identity, in the Principality of Roses, is already quite a high noble, the important thing is that he is not very old, as long as he is willing to work hard, he will be knighted without surprise, and climb to a higher position step by step.

Of course, none of this had anything to do with Langdon, but because of his other identity, it was related to Langdon.

This young knight named Alucci came out of this village, his parents were both villagers in this village, and his father, because he was the sixth in the family, was also habitually called the sixth in the family.

That's right, his parents are the same middle-aged couple who acted in a play that night to frame Langdon, but were killed by Hogg's hot hands.

"Although I don't want to cause trouble, since I have to find the trouble myself, there is no way, and this trouble is not very big. Langdon read the relationship on the paper and tossed it aside.

After a pause, he then smiled and said: "Such a young knight has some cultivation value, but now it seems that there is no chance, but with you here, it doesn't matter if there is more or less of him, but this Brooke really gave me a small surprise." ”

"Less than 30 years old, he succeeded his father as the village head, and after working for so many years, he can govern a village well, and he is also a little capable, and the important thing is his ability to seize the opportunity, which really makes me look at it differently. ”

"That sixth child, because his son was out of the house, also had the intention of robbing the village chief, but he was killed by us after acting in such a play, not only cleaning up the competitors, but also transferring the hatred to me. ”

"After that, I was left with a small life, and I immediately understood the reason why I survived, and came to show my loyalty as soon as possible. ”

"Hehe, it's kind of interesting, but it's not interesting for such a person to do it, of course you have to make use of it. ”

After talking a lot to himself, Langdon finally looked at the two girls and Lao Wang sitting next to him, and said, "Why don't we go into the mountains now?"

Zhu Lingqi thought for a moment and said: "With that ground snake, it's okay, as long as you don't go deep in a hurry, there shouldn't be any danger, but it's better to make some preparations." ”

"Then I'll let that guest sleep a little longer?" Lao Wang asked with a smile, of course, the person he said was the captive who was taken by him and ran all the way, and was ordered by Lao Wang along the way to the numb point and sleeping point, of course, the people of this world do not know the magic technique of acupoint, they only think that Lao Wang has some divine means, and he is even more afraid of Lao Wang.

So, soon, under the pretext of recuperating from his injuries, Brooke received an order, so his "injury" was immediately cured, and he got up early the next morning, quickly dressed, and carefully prepared food and drink for the lord, and waited outside the lord's residence early in the morning.

An hour later, the door of the small courtyard opened, and Langdon was not surprised to see Brooke waiting outside, and said with a smile: "Let's go." ”

The village was just over a kilometer from the entrance to the mountains, and it didn't take long to hike there, but soon the group came to the entrance.

This is a canyon, listen to Brooke's introduction, the canyon is not deep, but there are seven big bends, so it is also called the Seven Bend Gorge by the people in the village, and it is considered to really enter the mountain after the Seven Bend Gorge.

As soon as you step into the canyon, the towering mountain walls on both sides immediately block out the sun that has just risen from the east, which makes the canyon look a little dark inside.

Brooke introduced as he walked, "Although the village is very close to the mountain, we rarely go into the mountain, because the village has a legend that there are monsters eating people in the mountain since ancient times, but we are not completely out of the mountain. ”

"In the nearest town to the village, it takes nearly 2 days to ride a horse, and if the people in the village have a headache and brain fever, they will ask the doctor in the village to go into the mountains to find some herbs to use, but then there are fewer people in the village, and the doctor is gone, so this job falls on the village chief, so I don't hide it from the people, and now the people in the village want to say that I have entered the mountain the most times. ”

"Ah, my lord, please see, the last bend of the Seven Bends Gorge in front of you, turn around and even really enter the mountain, turn around and face two mountains, according to legend, it was originally one, and then because there were gods fighting in the mountain, a mountain was broken in half, and it became two ......"

While listening to Brooke's introduction, Langdon and the others exchanged glances silently.

Gods fighting, or is it the remnants of a civilized race fighting against a foreign enemy?
