Chapter 320: A Village Without a Record

|||->-> Since a few days ago, when the pit was so angry and funny, the strength of Lin and his party to encounter traps on the road has weakened a lot. Sparse and sparse, sometimes you don't meet one in a day. Although there are still a few tails hanging behind him,

I don't know the reason for this change, but there's no need for someone to go back to those people and ask them why they don't continue to make trouble. Finally, he was able to use a more comfortable mood to carry out this journey to an unknown destination, but Lin Ke couldn't ask for it.

The more primitive the society, the higher the degree of self-sufficiency. Starting from leaving Wulian City, crossing the Doomsday Mountains from the Southwest Peninsula to the traditional Southwest Lost Land, the current direction is to go to the west of the Lost Land Continent. Along the way, there aren't many places to really spend money.

When thirsty, there is stream water, and there are some water-rich plants. If you are hungry, you will bear different fruits throughout the year, and you can also pick some wild vegetables and make a pot of vegetable soup directly; Even going hunting, getting a barbecue or broth, is not too much of a problem.

As long as you have enough strength, there is nowhere to go in the Lost Land Continent, and there is no need to worry about starving to death. Of course, on the other hand, if the strength is not enough, the Lost Land Continent can also go anywhere, but it will become a means for other creatures or others not to worry about starvation. In the final analysis, this world is still respected by strength.

It's a pity that this good mood didn't last a few days. Maybe it's from the teacher's side that I learned a lot of crooked ways to use magic. Of course, the injured girl refused to wait quietly to recuperate, and she attached a long-lasting weakened version of the float to herself. The biggest advantage of this is that it reduces the weight of the caster, allowing Harumi to move freely without straining his leg injuries too much.

And after finding a way to move, how could Harumi be willing to remain tied to the passenger seat of the caravan. Although her movements were not as easy as she had been when she had not been injured, the girl also got out of the carriage and used her legs to patrol the neighboring area. It's just that she didn't dare to run away this time, she knew very well that if something went wrong, it would be inconvenient for her to run away now.

Wild temperament does not mean that it is reckless. Like now, the girl who came back full of doubts said to her teacher, "Teacher, I found a village not far ahead. ”

"Well, when you find it, you find out, why do you have an expression of eating flies?" Lin was puzzled by the girl's expression.

"I think that village is weird. But what's weird, I can't say. ”

Regarding other people's intuition, Lin always holds the idea that he would rather believe what he has than what he doesn't. But to confirm the facts, more evidence is needed to corroborate them. So he turned to the girl driving and asked, "Kaya, is there any information about that village on the map?" ”

The girl reconfirmed the map she had edited from the field of view of her own glasses; In addition to this, all the original maps of this area are traversed. Eventually, she shook her head.

A village with no records. Lin thought so in his heart.

The map information of the Lost Land is very different from the information obtained by scientific measurement of the earth. On earth, it is important to pay attention to the details; Whoever can record it more thoroughly will be used by more people.

But in the past, backward surveying and mapping methods have made people selectively record important information. As an important landmark to confirm the bearing, of course, it is important; The secondary is any place where food and water can be replenished, or where refuge can be sought, and in this case, of course, the gathering place of Homo sapiens.

Most of the gathering places, even if they are not very friendly to outsiders, are much better than the natural environment in the wild. Some of the most basic demands, in the spirit of mutual aid, are rarely refused. Therefore, the place where the crowd gathers is also one of the important information of the Lost Land map. And those really dangerous locations rarely appear on the information on the Maze map.

In fact, this is also very understandable, if there is really a mortal danger, the people who go in probably will not be able to get out, and naturally they will not be able to transmit the information that this is a dangerous place to the outside world. Except for those that seem dangerous, such as dragon lairs, active volcanoes, abysses, etc., there are too many rumors about the dangers, and no one has a way to disprove them.

Another reason why the gathering place was not recorded on any of the maps was that it was a new gathering place and it was too late to be recorded. The update of the map is not easy even on Earth, let alone in the delusion.

However, the details must be confirmed with your own eyes before you can guess.

And as a gathering place that he passed through during his journey, Lin was always very interested. Travel is to broaden your horizons, and the focus is on four words: 'customs'. The first two are landscapes, and the last two are people, both of which are things worth seeing.

Besides, although someone is essentially homely, there is no crowd panic disorder. If you can have better rest conditions, why should you be wronged. So he said to the two maidens, "If you use imagination here, you won't get a real answer." Let's go check it out. If it doesn't work, we'll leave. ”

Sitting back in the passenger seat, the carriage quickly reached the strange village she had been talking about, under the guidance of Harumi.

In Lin's eyes, the villages he saw here were not much different from those he had seen during his adventures in the Southwest Peninsula, and they could even be said to be more luxurious.

Usually, the establishment of villages is just a temporary gathering place for the purpose of facilitating land reclamation, mining, etc., so the living environment will be very simple, and the houses are relatively scattered. With leaky wooden walls and thatched roofs, that kind of house is just better than sleeping in the open.

There are no shops or inns in this kind of place, and it is usually people who have surplus things in the house, or who have a more spacious house, and just earn some extra money.

But in this village in front of me, the layout of the houses is tightly knit, and there is a fence on the outermost part. It may not provide much protection against real threats, but it is enough to prevent poultry and livestock from moving out and from foreign beasts from entering.

Inside the house, there was even a fairly well-built house, which seemed to be a place for people of status. Although the other houses are a little inferior, they are still far from the simplicity of the village level. It can be said that as long as the area continues to develop and the population increases, it is bound to become a small town.

But...... It's the same as Harumi said, it feels weird. Intuitively, there is no popularity, like entering a ghost town.

The carriage entered the village, and in a short time a group of people came out of nowhere, either standing in the shadow of the house, or peeking through the windows of the house, at the strangers who had come to the village.

Is it very guarded? Or is there something else quirky? It was difficult for Lin to judge immediately.

From before entering the village, Lin wore a small shawl in the style of a magician, and walked at the front of the carriage. The intention of this is to warn some people with other intentions not to provoke people who they can't afford to provoke. On the other hand, Lin's direct appearance also meant to release kindness, so that others would know that they were willing to contact others, rather than acting like a group of untouchables who were not allowed to approach or touch the magician.

"Your Excellency." An old man, accompanied by several old women, approached tremblingly. Nervously pinching the felt hat that was originally worn on his head, he squeezed out a little unnatural smile and said, "Is it the magician?" Our village desperately needs your help, and the evil from the ground threatens the lives of all the people in the village, and I hope you will not hesitate to lend a hand. At the same time, he took the small pocket from an old woman behind him and said, "Although it is not much, it is nothing to you, but here is already the money collected by the whole village." ”

Which one is this playing? In the last village, a sedan chair came to make a statement, and the result was that a bunch of people died and a vein of magic stones was abolished. This time the same play is staged, what is going to happen?

However, Lin still asked: "Old man, don't be in a hurry to give us a bounty first, let's tell me what happened first." Let's see if things can be worked out. ”

Unsure whether the other party was true or not, Lin decided to probe first.

If the other party says that there is an evil dragon or something living near here, then he will definitely leave. Not doing what is beyond one's ability is a basic principle for someone. Although loss-making transactions can be done occasionally, the kind that will lose all the pants must flash as far as they can.

Before he even figured things out, he slammed his chest with a bang, which didn't look like someone's style.

The old man was also as good as a stream, and first handed back the barren little pocket in his hand to the person behind him, and he waved his hand sideways: "My lord, please follow me to our village chief's house." The village chief can tell you more clearly what happened. ”

"Please lead the way."

Lin walked on his feet, Kaya was still driving the carriage, but Harumi sat in the carriage quietly and did not dare to move. There was a strange atmosphere, and the girl was almost out of breath. In this way, the group followed the old man to the most luxurious mansion in the village. And in the process of walking towards the mansion, there are constantly villagers joining the crowd and following behind.

The house was less like a house in the style of a mistress, more like a chamber and a house, but it was more neatly built and better maintained than the others.

The old man stood respectfully outside the house and said inside, "Village Chief, there is a magician who has come with his subordinates. ”

Out of the room came a girl who was so beautiful that people couldn't speak, dressed more like some witches in primitive beliefs, with bright colors and quite special totems.

Looking at this beautiful girl who did not fit in with the village, Lin had the feeling of seeing a phoenix in the weeds. It's just that in this way, the lingering sense of disobedience is even stronger.

The girl walked out of the house with her eyes closed. I don't know if I was born blind, or if I'm used to my own territory, so I don't have to open my eyes and won't hit the wall. When she came to the front, the two eyeballs slowly opened, and the two big eyes were watery, and the whole pair of beautiful embryos with bright eyes and bright teeth.

She tilted her head and smiled sweetly. I wanted to speak, but I heard a muffled bang, and a bloody hole opened in the brain of the beautiful embryo. Lin Meng turned his head, and the lich holding the magic spear did not hide his meaning at all, but smiled a little smugly. The two girls beside her looked equally stunned.
