Chapter 4: First encounter with a mysterious old man

The moon hung high in the sky, glowing with a faint and cold light, and slept on the wooden bed of the inn, and the grazing could not calm down for a long time.

After spending 2BDBH of room fees, he didn't dare to spend money again, so he cheekily took two cold steamed buns from the small kitchen of the inn to deal with a bite, no matter in which world, the principle of currency supremacy has not changed...

Anyway, I couldn't sleep, and by the moonlight, the herd turned over the newbie gift package just rewarded.

A clump of climbing rope, a rudimentary machete, a dagger, a miniature but 3-liter marching kettle, a primary-level chain mail, and a bottle of blood recovery pills, which contained three pills, and the back of the bottle was marked with the following words: One pill can restore 20 HP.

The initial blood volume of the warrior is about 200, looking at this pile of things that are quite practical, Mu Fang sighed slightly, put the chain mail on his body, the shape of the machete was too big to carry around, and hid the dagger in his waist.

Originally, I wanted to find a random bridge hole to spend the night, but Nicholas. Kind reminder, Huanxi Village at night chicken and dog thieves a lot, in the eyes of thieves like him just into the village of a novice is simply fragrant, no force and weapons in hand, and just received the system issued 50BDBH, not to rob you is lucky, and dare to wander outside alone...

Instantly dispelled the idea of saving money, caught a horse and took him to find a remote inn, where the fee is quite low, he explained that because the inn pays the protection fee to the bandits every month, it is still safe to live here.

As the night deepened and the temperature slowly dropped, the shepherds were wrapped tightly in thin quilt covers, and in a daze, they heard the sound of horses' hooves outside the window.

The herd turned over, poked a small hole in the window paper, and looked out to see a masked man in black, who quietly dismounted and slipped to the door of the inn under the cover of the hazy night.

I was shocked, could it be that this person's goal was himself?

The door to the inn is unlocked! The herd in the guest room has heard the sound of the door being pushed downstairs, and in an emergency, the body has rushed to the door uncontrollably, trying to put down the door lock, and the hand has just touched the door, and the herd suddenly reacts again.

Since this person can easily enter the inn, it means that he has already passed through the air in advance with the inn, and it is mostly useless to call for help or resist hard.

Although the sound of the staircase footsteps was very soft, it was infinitely amplified in the silent space, and the sound was like a talisman.

Mu Fang made up his mind, put the quilt on the bed, jumped up, climbed up along the pillar, and the whole person clinged to the beam, and the next second that the night "blended in", the door was gently pushed open.

Looking down from a high place, the masked man tiptoed towards the bed, he was holding a short knife, it seemed that he was also a warrior, perhaps because he saw the movement of the door did not wake up the person on the bed, his slightly bent body gradually erected, and when he stood again, the knife in his hand stabbed fiercely at the "bulging" human figure.

At the same time, the shepherd also drew his dagger, waiting for his expected time...

Wrong! It doesn't feel right to stab with a knife, and there is no blood on the quilt, so I was deceived!

It's a pity that the time left for him to think is over, there is a gust of wind above his head, and before he can look up, a heavy object hits his body at a very fast speed, and his whole body can't stand the force to hit the ground, and his head happens to hit the edge of the bed on the side.

The masked man passed out completely, thanks to the "buffer" under him, and the grazing grazing that jumped from the beam of the house was not injured, and the dagger was about to touch the man's neck, but he remembered the iron rules of Huanxi Village, so he had to give up.

"Dare to bully your grandfather, I'm impatient!" He tore off the thief's face towel, and it was a strange face.

Worried that the man would wake up again, the herd took out the climbing rope, tied his hands and feet tightly, stuffed a ball of cotton into his mouth, and turned out the storage bag in the mezzanine of his clothes.

I groped for a long time, but unfortunately I didn't find anything good, there was only 86BDBH in the money bag, a sword that looked bells and whistles, the hilt of the sword was inlaid with small diamonds, and I didn't know if it was worth it, and there were some small things in bottles and cans, and I didn't look at it carefully, and I took it all away.

Seeing that the man hadn't woken up yet, and Mu Fang didn't know what to do, he threw him under the bed and slept until dawn with the punctured quilt.

Early in the morning of the second day, the loud sound of the sound woke up the villagers of Huanxi Village from their sleep, and each family opened the door to sprinkle water to welcome the new day, and the grazing was woken up by the movement under the bed, and the masked man had woken up, and was struggling to break free from the shackles of his hands and feet.

It was dark in front of him, and he was knocked out again by a hand stretched out in front of him, and the herd was not fully awake, and his face turned pale from insufficient sleep.

"Ding Dong ~ release the task of the villagers of Huanxi Village - Recently, the bandits have been rampant, please go to the village entrance to participate in the capture task (3 bandits), and the villagers who take the lead in catching the bandits will get a bounty of 200BDBH."

After listening to the content of the task, Mu Fang jumped up from the bed, isn't there a ready-made one under the bed!

He packed up his things, put the masked man on his shoulders, and retreated from the room under the surprised gazes of everyone up and down the inn, and Mufang noticed that the boss's hand was still trembling when he checked out, and looked at himself as if he was looking at a monster...

No matter how much grazing there is, it is better to have money than anything else, and when he carried people to the yamen, he saw the prop shop next to the yamen, and went in around the corner, and when he came out, there was a bulging thing in the bag.

Nicholas. Du was still wearing clothes, and suddenly there was a system prompt, he was surprised who would come to the yamen early in the morning to report the crime, and when he walked out from behind the door, he swept to the limp thief on the ground, and his eyes flashed a few times.

"I'll take the reward." The young man standing on the side spoke cleanly and without nonsense.

Nicholas. Du pulled out a reluctant smile, he was bound to win this bounty, but he didn't expect to be preempted by this kid, although he was reluctant, he could only remove the bounty list and hand it to the herd.

200BDBH fell into the money bag, the grazing balance smiled with relief, and the surrounding villagers also came over to watch the excitement, and even a few small traders who were quite troubled by the robbery applauded.

"What a hero!"

"Luck, luck." Mu Fang waved his hand modestly, but it was obviously taken as his modesty, and the news that a first-level warrior could deal with the bandits alone was enough to shock people's hearts.

No one noticed the grim expression on the side, Nicholas. Du converged his expression, and also clapped his hands and agreed: "Everyone, Mufang has solved a bandit, and there are still two places, although the bonus is not so much, but it is also 100BDBH, if you are willing to go out of the village to suppress bandits, please gather here with me." ”

After speaking, he looked at the young man who was counting the money in place with a smile.

"Mufang, you have dealt with bandits, and you have more experience than us, so you can also participate in this crackdown on bandits."

The young man turned over the money in his money bag and counted it, but did not look up, but nodded and said yes.

A group of more than a dozen people were ready to go, and each of them took their most competent weapons, saying that they were bandits, but they all knew in their hearts that they were just going to wander around the village to see if there were any unlucky bandits who could be picked up by them.

Out of the village gate, before he could walk a few steps, a few mages retreated, Nicholas. Du was not angry, but just let them go back on their own, and the number of people in the team was cut in half in half in an instant.

The remaining eight continued their way deep into the mountains, and along the way they found many traces of horses' hooves, Nicholas. As the identity of the catcher, Du naturally became the leader of the team, and he divided the team into four groups and arranged for them to explore in different directions, and the herd was assigned to his group.

"Do you know how many bandits there are?" The herd kept an eye on the movement around her and chatted with him.

"Maybe it's twenty, and there aren't many bandits who enter the village every time."

"What about the cultivation level? Do you know? ”

After waiting for a long time, the people beside him did not answer him, but just froze his body and looked back at Nicholas. Du pulled the whistle from his neck, and a crisp birdsong resounded through the valley.

"You... Have a hobby of teasing birds? ”

The man on the other side had a gloomy face, perhaps because he didn't expect this kid to die and didn't know what to do, he slowly approached.

"Do you know what kind of people can't survive in Huanxi Village?"

"Clever man."

The shepherd did not show the panic he expected, he didn't even have a single expression, he just watched himself approach, and when he was puzzled, there was an unusual touch under his feet, the sound of the switch being pressed.

"Hehe, I'll just say that the front foot just lived in the inn, why the back foot of the thief is going to come to rob me, without you as an intermediary, where do they know the information of Huanxi Village."

The herding hippie approached Nicholas with a smile. degree, the man who stepped on the mine did not dare to move for half a minute, and his forehead began to sweat.

"You already knew!"

"At first, it was just a vague conjecture, but from the moment I grouped it, I confirmed it." There are so many coincidences in the world, but there are too many "people with hearts".

Nicholas. Du also wanted to blow the whistle again, but was keenly captured by the herd and knocked it off with one hand. The whistle fell to the ground, rolled a few times and disappeared into a cloud of weeds.

"This thing is what you used to connect, right?" The man did not dare to resist, for fear that the mines under his feet would explode.

After several searches, the money bag and storage bag were all taken away by the herd, and before he could check the results, there was a rustling sound in the grass, and the herd stopped counting the money, took out the machete, and waited with bated breath.

In the next second, a head poked out of the grass, and his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was probing the movement here.

Seeing that the collar that the man leaked out was also the decoration of the bandits, a familiar system prompt sounded in the head of the herd: "Found the patrol bandit 567, please strangle it immediately, otherwise..."

Before he could hear the words behind the system, Mu Fang was already running towards the bandit with a machete in his hand, but the two were separated by some distance after all, and the bandit was alarmed by the action, turned around and ran back, and Mu Fang could only give up when he couldn't catch up.

"If only I were a mage, this distance, throw some kind of spell past, and I don't need to chase..."

"Otherwise, it will attract the bandit boss" The voice of the system intimately made up for the words that he had just ignored, and the greetings in Mu Fang's mouth were endless, but he didn't wait for him to prepare for the next change.

A long knife broke through the wind, Mu lowered his consciousness to dodge, and the blade flashed and whistled past his face, leaving a shallow blood mark.

"So fast!"

Looking up, the bandit leader had already surrounded the two with a group of junior brothers, Nicholas. When Du Ru saw the rescuers, he shouted for help, and was put into his mouth by Mu Fang A few handfuls of mud, choking on his waist.

"Boy, you were the fish that slipped through the net last night, let's die!" The information of the leader flipped through his eyes, the warrior level 25...

The herd was annoyed that he had only bought a mine in order to save money, and the long knife had already slashed at his neck again, and he jumped out of thin air, leaving deep knife marks on the trunk of the tree on the side, and in his panic, he couldn't escape the leader's strong hand, and was pressed to the ground fiercely.

The smell of blood in his throat announced the countdown to death, and the leader tightened his wrists, herding the fragile animal cub that could be torn apart by the person in front of him at any moment.

"Die!" The oxygen stored in the lungs has been depleted, the herd has given up the struggle, and the vision in front of him has begun to darken.

"Thorn La"

The strength on his neck relaxed, and Mu, who thought he was going to die, fled back from the brink of life and death at the last moment.

When he opened his eyes, he saw a long sword in the heart of the bandit leader, his eyeballs were slightly bulging, and the blood that flowed out was dripping on his clothes, he quickly pushed away the bandit who was pressing on him, got up to check, and saw an old man standing under the tree, smiling at himself.
