When the four of them heard the officer's order, they stopped at the entrance of the village, only to see the officer and several soldiers come forward menacingly, glance at Jock, and set their eyes on Rogge, Catherine, and Murphy.

"Where did you three come from, I haven't seen you before!" the officer shouted, pointing at the three.

Before Rogge and the others could answer, Farmer Jock hurriedly stepped forward with a grin and said, "Sheriff Owen, this girl is my niece Catherine, you should remember her, her father was killed by a white werewolf in the forest fifteen years ago, this is the girl. ”

The local sheriff, Owen, was a tall middle-aged man, who touched the stubble on his chin with his hand and looked at Catherine, nodded slightly and said, "I heard that you disappeared after running out of Willis's orphanage, we all thought you were dead, but we didn't expect to grow up." ”

"yes, that's a real please. Jock said happily.

"Who are these two?" Owen took his eyes off Catherine and swept over Rog and Murphy standing beside her, Jock hurriedly introduced, "This is Catherine's teacher, this is her friend." ”

"What's your name, what are you doing?" Owen asked, ignoring Jock's words, staring straight at Rog and Murphy.

"My name is Langaro, this is Murphy, and we are members of the Adventurers' Guild. Rogge replied unhurriedly.

Seeing him say this, Murphy silently took out a badge of the Adventurers' Guild from his body and showed it to the sheriff, although the sheriff glanced at the badge in his hand, but because he had been stationed in small villages and towns all year round, he did not know the badge, so he could not distinguish the real from the fake.

Despite this, he spared the four of them, and told Old Jock that the vigilantes were hunting down the murderers of Baron Hood and the director of the orphanage, and that if any suspicious person appeared, he must report it to the vigilantes in time.

After entering the village, Jock said that his niece had returned, and soon all the men, women and children in the village knew about it, and Jock's two sons learned about it from their neighbors and quietly followed the crowd to check on the situation.

When they saw Catherine dressed in a beautiful and smart white tights and a white cloak, followed by two handsome men, walking in the direction of their house under the watchful eyes of the villagers, a trace of jealousy came from the hearts of the two young men.

"This stinky girl is still alive, and she looks good, I think she was not even as good as a servant when she was in our house, but I didn't expect it to be today!" said the elder brother, spitting on the ground.

"Brother, we can't let this girl enter the house in a beautiful way, we have to give her some color!" the younger brother whispered to the elder brother, and the two muttered a few words, turned around and hurriedly ran towards the house.

Not long after, Catherine and the others were led by Jock to the door of the house, and she saw that her own house had been fenced into a courtyard with her uncle's house, and two false gates were erected in front of her.

She made up her mind and pushed the door open with Jock, and just as she pushed open the wooden door on the left, a wooden barrel suddenly fell from the door and smashed it into Catherine, and the little owl on Rog's hat that walked behind her was quick and fixed the barrel in the air with a glaring eye.

Catherine reacted quickly, took a sharp step back, jumped forward, kicked the barrel out with a flying kick, and flew straight to the brothers who were standing in the yard about to watch the excitement, only to hear an exclamation, and a bucket full of cow dung was all buckled on the brother's body, knocking him to the ground.

"Sister Catherine is so good!" cried the little furball as she fluttered her wings.

"That's a changed name, little ghost!" Rogge muttered under his breath, winking at Catherine, and the girl smiled slightly, looking back at the scrambled brothers, only to hear old Jock step through the door and shout, "You two bastards, what are you doing!"

The brothers were so embarrassed that they had no time to answer their father's question, and at this moment, a fat woman with a full face came out of the house, glanced at everyone coldly, and said coldly, "What's the matter?

Hearing her voice, the farmer Jock's voice suddenly lowered an octave, and he said to his wife with a flattering look: "Misha, Catherine is back, look at it, this child has grown up, how beautiful it is!"

Catherine's aunt Misha glanced at the girl arrogantly, and when she saw her looking at herself with an unruly face, a nameless fire suddenly rose in her heart, and then she saw her decent clothes and beautiful appearance, and her heart was even more angry.

She walked slowly towards Catherine, and said in a strange voice: "Yo, I said why there was a commotion in the village today, and I thought that a hunter had brought back a pheasant from the forest, but I didn't expect it to be the little phoenix who escaped and came home!"

"Auntie, long time no see. Catherine ignored her taunts and replied calmly.

"Hmph, it doesn't matter if you don't see it, our small place can't accommodate you, so we don't dare to touch your light more. Misha glanced at her with a sneer, walked up to her son and kicked him, scolding: "Why don't you go and change your clothes, stupid thing, it's not as good as a girl!"

The two brothers ran back to their house in a panic, and the people who stayed at the scene were a little embarrassed for a while, and Jock wanted to persuade his wife, but before he could speak, he was glared back by Misha.

At this time, Rogge stepped forward and took out two gold coins from his body, smiled and said to Misha: "Hello, Mrs. Misha, I am Miss Catherine's teacher and friend in the Adventurers' Guild, and we are here because Catherine discovered an ancient treasure not long ago. ”

He looked back at Catherine, and the girl looked at him calmly and with a little curiosity, only to hear him smile and continue: "According to our estimates, the ancient gold coins she found are at least a thousand, and they can probably buy more than two of Baron Hood's domains. ”

Hearing Rogge's words, Misha and Jock both became a little surprised, but Misha forcibly pretended not to care, turned her face away and continued to listen to Rogge: "We came back this time to thank the two of you for raising her back then, and we have prepared a small gift for this. ”

He stepped forward and handed Misha two shiny gold coins, and the woman glanced at them with her peripheral vision, and her eyes suddenly glowed with uncontrollable greed, to them, these two gold coins were equivalent to four years of their income.

"So that's the case," her face changed, and she reached out with a smile and snatched two gold coins from Rogge's hand, and said with a pleasant smile: "I knew that this child had filial piety and talent, and I said back then that she must be a great person in the future!"

She clenched the two gold coins in her hands, glanced back at Jock, and said, "Yes, Jock, I said that, right?"

Jock agreed, and Misha smiled with satisfaction: "Yes, my vision has never been bad, this child's parents are farmers, and there has never been a person with ability, I thought she was definitely not an ordinary person since she was very young, and now she has been verified!"

"Madame is discerning, and Miss Catherine owes her nurturing and teaching to you today!" said Rogge, smiling understandingly.

"Everywhere, it's all her own efforts, and the help of all of you, I've just done what I can! Who let her father die so early!" Misha said with a sigh of pity as she looked at Catherine.

She beckoned Catherine to her and took her hand to compliment her, and Rogge interjected as he watched from the sidelines: "Madam, that little bit just now is just a greeting gift, and then we have a gift box containing a hundred gold coins, and someone will send it soon." ”

"Oh, how can I say it, you kid is filial, come and sit in the house!" Misha's heart was overjoyed when she heard this, and she couldn't help but pull Catherine into the big room, and Jock hurriedly followed.

"What an old ugly woman with an eye for money!" said the little furball, pouting as he leaned on Rog's hat.

"Now you know that gluttony and greed for money are not good things, right?" said Rogge, who laughed softly, and the little furball glared at him, and jumped twice on his head and said, "The bad wolf is not allowed to insinuate me, I am different from her!"

"You just won't get old, but if you continue to gain weight, sooner or later you'll be the same as her!" Roger smiled and stepped along.

Several people sat down around the table in the living room of the big room, and Misha took Catherine's hand and asked for warmth, and used all kinds of sensual words to praise her, Catherine was so angry and amused that she could only barely cope with it.

At this time, Misha's two sons changed their clothes and walked in from outside, and as soon as Misha saw them, she immediately said, "You two, why don't you go to the tavern and buy some food and come back to entertain the guests, go quickly!"

The brothers had no choice but to go out in disgrace, scolding Catherine ten thousand times along the way, but they were helpless, and when they reached the door of the tavern, they suddenly saw Sheriff Owen standing there with several soldiers, talking to the tavernkeeper.

When the brothers saw Owen, they suddenly remembered the murder of Baron Hood that he was investigating, and the two came up with a ghost idea, and after quietly discussing for a while, they came to Owen together and mysteriously pulled him aside.

"Sheriff, do you know about my uncle's daughter's return?" the brother asked cautiously.

"I know, I've met them, and your father, what's wrong?" Owen couldn't help but be wary when he heard them mention Catherine and the others, he was already a little suspicious of these strangers, and he was still asking the tavernkeeper about them.

"Those people don't look like good people," the younger brother looked around sneakily and whispered, "They are all weapons, and those two men look like fierce people at first glance, and they have a lot of gold coins on them, and I don't know where they came from!"

"With a lot of gold coins?" Owen was shocked, the first thing that came to mind was the lost property in Baron Hood's castle, only to hear the brothers say in unison: "Yes, we saw with our own eyes that they took out a lot of gold coins to show off to us!"

"Take me to see, these people are very suspicious!" Owen was about to greet his soldiers, but the brothers hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Sheriff, you can't just go over like this, they are not easy to mess with, and there are magical creatures with them, and Catherine's cheap girl is a witch, you can't deal with them like this!"

"Witch?" the sheriff was shocked when he heard this, and the brothers nodded again and again, "Yes, they still have owls!"

"Go back at once, be sure to pacify them, I'll go back to the town now, and ask the priests of the Holy Congregation to come and help, and be sure to catch these people!" Owen, who realized the seriousness of the situation, told the brothers and hurried back to Willis with his soldiers.
