It was three days after the separation from Old Jack, when the Wave stopped at the nearest harbor to the town of Lysa Stone, and the sailors stood on deck, waving to him. One of the www.biquge.info most satisfying things for Lin Qiu is that he successfully made Old Jack realize the dangers of drinking alcohol through three days.

To sum up his philosophy, it would probably be: drink this glass of rum and you might die.

Old Jack, who was at the front of the sailors' line, was pale and had recovered from a serious illness - it was the third day of his abstinence.

Lin Qiu couldn't help but sigh that Anna was worthy of being a sea clan, as soon as she entered the desert area, Anna became a little weak. According to the map given to him by Old Jack, Sandstone Town was half a day's walk. Judging by the description attached to the map, Sandstone was the last recorded town before the Sandstorm.

As for Shakdam's location, a large red cross is drawn on the map.

Lin Qiu had finally discovered another use for his engraving ability—to hurry, otherwise he really didn't know what Anna would be going to be weak by the time he and Anna walked to Sandstone Town. Lin Qiu didn't like deserts, and he believed that there weren't many people in this world who liked deserts.

This is what he came to when he stepped into this uninhabited town.

The houses in Sandstone are the most primitive earthen houses, not much better than the primitive tribal buildings of the Vikings. Fortunately, there was also a tavern in Sandstone Town, and when Lin Qiu pushed the door in, the elderly owner was standing alone behind the bar wiping his glasses.

For Lin Qiu and Anna's arrival, he seemed quite surprised.

"Boss, what's the specialty?"

Lin Qiu put the money bag on the table. Anna curled up on the bench, and Jörmungård pressed her head against Anna's face, as if trying to figure out why one of its owners was listless. If there is a favorability ranking in Jörmungand's mind, Anna's status is second only to Lin Qiu.

The boss put down the cup and asked directly, "Guest, don't you want to go to Shakdam too?"

Since the fall of Shakdam, Sandstone has become the "border" of this continent, and to the west of Sandstone Town is the famous sandstorm zone. Nine times out of ten, the outsiders who come to their town are adventurers who want to go to Shakdam to find out.

If possible, Lin Qiu definitely didn't want to get involved with the sandstorm area, according to his beautiful imagination, he would rest in Sandstone Town for a few days, and then "happen to meet" the belated Alyssa, and persuade her to return to the imperial capital together.

"Boss, have you ever seen a female knight with short chestnut hair, probably this tall, wearing light armor?"

He described Elisa's appearance with his hand, Sandstone was such a tavern, and if Elisa wanted to go to Shakdam, she would definitely come here. With Alyssa's temperament and beauty, she is sure to impress the locals.

"Oh, guest, you said the knightess. ”

The boss suddenly realized, but Lin Qiu's heart "chuckled". The boss shook his head: "It's a pity, she stayed in town for a day and went to the sandstorm area alone." ”

Lin Qiu's sweet dream was instantly shattered by the boss's words.

The boss always believed that the outsiders who came here had only one goal. He didn't understand what treasures the fallen kingdom had to offer these adventurers.

Lin Qiu replied bitterly, "Then my destination should be there." ”

"I know that you probably won't listen to me as an old man, but I would like to advise you to return, for none of the adventurers who went to Shakdam have ever returned. And most of those treasures are deceitful, out of Sandstone Town, there is nothing but the harsh climate and sand. ”

Since he took over the shop from his father, he has lost count of how many times he has repeated this persuasion.

"Treasure? I'm not here for treasure. ”

The boss was stunned, and his gaze happened to notice the deep sea around Lin Qiu's waist.

- Knight.

Most of the people who never leave their swords in these years are knights.

Lin Qiu said a little dryly, the dry air in the desert area always made him uncomfortable, he took a sip of the water handed by the boss, and explained: "Here's the thing, we are taking the material for a food-themed drama, the name of the drama is "The Byron Empire on the Tip of the Tongue", and it is the screenwriter of this drama below. ”

Isn't it a knight?

Although the boss didn't know what the profession of screenwriter was, he easily accepted Lin Qiu's statement.

"The female knight before that was ......"

Lin Qiu's answer did not hesitate at all: "My wife." ”

Anyway, Alyssa is not there, and he has no psychological burden to brag. What's more, even if Alyssa is here, she will pat his head with red ears at most.

Now the boss was shocked - he couldn't see that a person of Lin Qiu's age was actually a family person, so judging from Lin Qiu's caring behavior for that little girl as soon as he entered the store, could it be theirs...... Daughter?

Lin Qiu saw that the boss secretly looked at Anna and nodded: "Boss, you are really well-informed, that's right, she is our ......"

The boss's eyes widened.

"Notes!"

The boss almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, and his heart couldn't stand such a panting answer.

Also, what is the scene note?

"So boss, bring your best food. Maybe one day you'll be included in a drama by me!"

"Huh, me?"

The boss pointed to himself in surprise.

Lin Qiu was about to continue to fool the boss, but the door of the house was kicked open from the outside. A group of young men carrying long swords walked into the store one after another, dressed uniformly and shirtless. It was exactly like the thugs he had seen near the school before he crossed over.

At the end of the crowd came a young man who was not much older than him, and he slapped his sword on the table: "Daddy, bring the delicious food, we have been chasing and killing that monster all morning...... Hey, we're here again, that's right, we don't have enough money to fight monsters, so you can give us some more, Dad. ”

Although he kept claiming that the boss was his father, there was not the slightest respect in his tone, and at the same time, one of his hands was on Lin Qiu's money bag.

Lin Qiu's face immediately sank.

If it weren't for the boss's sake, he would have pushed his head into the table a long time ago. The boss looked at Lin Qiu in embarrassment.

"It's okay, if they're in a hurry, let's serve them food first. ”

Lin Qiu calmed down the anger in his heart. Who hasn't met so many bear children? If you really want to talk about it, the boss is the most unlucky person to have such a bear child. After a little observation, he lost interest in the gangsters—the strongest of them was a knight, and the others weren't even knights.

So he didn't believe that this group of people could hunt down any monsters.

With all due respect, the fighting power of these people was not much stronger than the group of skeletons encountered in the mausoleum of Port Solan.

"Hey, I didn't expect you to be quite knowledgeable. ”

The gangster with the weird hairstyle nodded approvingly, and the main targets of their group were adventurers who didn't seem to be strong, except for the nominal "Monster Hunting".

In their eyes, Lin Qiu was a "fat sheep", and even fools could see that the sword at his waist was priceless. They have seen a lot of this kind of people, and those noble children who came from afar, without the protection of the guards, are all straw bales!

"Oh, come and see, there's a little beauty here!"

Lin Qiu didn't plan to deal with them, but these people were all little experts in death, and the ranger knight led by them sighed as if he had discovered a new continent. His retinue also rushed up and surrounded Anna.
