Not long after falling asleep, Cao Zhongsheng woke up. Holding the iron sword beside him, a harrier rolled over and fell off the bed. With the salary advance, Cao Zhongsheng was ready to go out for a big meal and treat himself.

The house rented by Cao Zhongsheng is located on the lower right side of the guard's station, and there are many similar houses for the guards to rent in the same area, but there are not many people living in them. Because all the guards led by Jack are locals, and they don't need to be in the guard house if they have a house, Cao Zhongsheng is the only one who lives here.

The entire guard house is about a few hundred square meters in size, and Cao Zhongsheng feels quite small after a casual stroll. The guard house consisted of a training ground, a warehouse, a residential area, and a few small scattered houses, and on weekdays no one would come here except the guards on duty, and they all stayed at home, and they didn't have to take attendance anyway.

Wearing the guard's uniform and swaggering out the door, Cao Zhongsheng first walked into the town, and found two guards sitting on both sides of the street, and behind the guards were some relatively elaborate shops. For example, cloth shops, butchers, blacksmiths, etc. This is probably the business district of Jack's Town, where people who serve Baron Jack, such as sheriffs and tax collectors, and a small number of people with a little savings, also live here.

"Isn't it the so-called rich area? Outside the guard is the civilian area, and inside is the rich area, and after the rich area is the baron's castle, and the layout of this town is really simple. Cao Zhongsheng complained a little and walked towards the rich area.

It is estimated that in the morning, the news that a yellow man was chartered as a guard by Lord Adeven had spread, so the guards guarding the intersection of the rich area did nothing, and Cao Zhongsheng went in smoothly.

I found a tavern called Dancing Rose and went in, there were only a few idlers sitting together drinking and farting, and there was a woman in a dark maid costume sleeping there at the counter.

Cao Zhongsheng stepped forward and knocked on the table, waking her up: "Let's have some meat and wine." After saying that, he casually found a place and sat down.

The maid who was woken up muttered a few words, and went to the back kitchen to get food, while Cao Zhongsheng looked at the small bar. This should be the only bar in the town, because there are only a few people during the day, but Cao Zhongsheng estimates that there are not many people at night, after all, a small place.

After looking around, Cao Zhongsheng found something interesting, which was a cloth board hanging above the bar. The cloth board is very large, almost two square meters, but there are only two strips of paper pasted on it, which takes up a small piece of space. Cao Zhongsheng approached with curiosity, but was embarrassed to find that he couldn't read.

The text is a bit like the top 10 English, but it's completely different.

"What are you looking at? Do you want to take on a task?" A mature and bewitching voice came from the side, and Cao Zhongsheng turned around and saw that it was Fang Cai's maid, En, a big maid about thirty years old.

"Little guy, is my sister good-looking?" The maid saw Cao Zhongsheng's gaze wandering over her, and a trace of disgust welled up in the depths of her eyes, and at the same time, she stretched out her finger and hooked Cao Zhongsheng, which was quite charming.

"This bar, is it yours?" Cao Zhongsheng ignored the maid's words, and asked rhetorically, "What is written on this?"

"Of course it's mine, or else it's yours?" or do you want to be the host of this bar?" the maid was amused by Cao Zhongsheng's serious appearance, and couldn't help but want to continue teasing.

Cao Zhongsheng's eyebrows furrowed, and a faint murderous aura was released, which immediately startled the maid, and finally began to face up to the young man in front of him who looked less than twenty years old.

"This is the adventurer's quest release board, but there haven't been adventurers here for many years, so there are no quest releases. What hangs is the annual task of suppressing bandits, and no one can complete it if no one takes it, so it's hanging. The landlady turned and walked back to the bar and explained casually.

"Where the adventurer's quest is released? With a sigh in his heart, Cao Zhongsheng didn't ask anything more, and began to bow his head to eat meat and drink wine. The idle men on the other side have already begun to pay attention to Cao Zhongsheng, and Cao Zhongsheng, who only wants to keep a low profile at present, doesn't want to attract too much attention, so let's leave the remaining questions for later.

The texture of the meat provided by the bar is average, and it feels similar to the pork in the previous life, and it is not as delicious as the braised pork in the previous life without seasoning. The so-called wine is ordinary wheat, and the degree is about the same as beer, and the taste is not good.

But this kind of wine and meat made Cao Zhongsheng greedy, and he began to eat the meat in a big gulp, looking like he had been hungry for several days. Such rude behavior made the female boss chuckle again, and felt that this little guy was even more interesting.

"There are three copper carats of pork meat and yellow barley wine, do you have any money, little brother? The female boss reminded with a smile.

Cao Zhongsheng glanced at the female boss, took out three copper carats from his arms with one hand and gnawed meat with the other, and put them on the table. This very ordinary behavior was seen by the few idlers on the side, which made their eyes light up, but the clothes Cao Zhongsheng was wearing made them hesitate a little. Guards, it's not easy to mess with.

"Made, if only that Robert guy were here. Robert's uncle is the steward of the castle...... "The idlers were chatting and farting on the side, and Cao Zhongsheng had the intention to eavesdrop on some of the contents, but he didn't hear it clearly.

"Robert, is that coward who was killed by me before?" Cao Zhongsheng felt a little headache, the Robert in their mouth couldn't really be the one he killed before, right? Killing anyone casually has a bit of a background, and he really has a black face. Pretending not to hear anything, he continued to eat and drink, and after eating and drinking, Cao Zhongsheng secretly wrote down the appearance of those idlers, and then left the bar.

There were twenty-seven copper carats left in the salary, and they had to be saved, and the next meal could only be eaten in the canteen of the guard's house. The bar is useless here for the time being, there are too few people to inquire about anything, and the female boss doesn't look simple, so it's better to go less. The only adventurer quest that might be useful was also abandoned because he was illiterate, and he couldn't find any external force in the short term.

Cai Ke's matter still needs to be resolved, and the murderous aura leaked when Cai Ke looked at himself before let Cao Zhongsheng know that the matter is not over, and he still needs to become stronger. Let's start training yourself, increase your strength attribute to 1 as soon as possible, and completely step into the threshold of the first order. , and then he can barely be regarded as a knight.

On the way back to the guardhouse, Cao Zhongsheng briefly planned his training plan, and after returning to the guardhouse, he walked towards the training ground with an iron sword.

Let's start with basic swordsmanship!
