233. The boundary monument in the north of the barrier village
Roy and Instructor Nora took half a day off before leaving the hotel.
I happened to see Sabrina standing at the door of the hotel, wearing a white linen dress, looking left and right.
Instructor Fergill stood beside Sabrina and showed her the places to go around Barrier Village, and as Roy passed by the two of them, Instructor Fergill introduced Sabrina to the clear stream at the bottom of the valley in Barrier Village.
The elves bring a canal from the upper reaches of the creek to ensure that the village has living water.
The view of the valley stream is very good, but when it rains, the valley is flooded with a lot of rain......
Roy politely beckoned to the two.
Sabrina's eyes lit up when she saw Roy coming out of the hotel, and she immediately reached out and grabbed Roy's arm, and said to Instructor Virgil with an apologetic face:
"I'm sorry, Instructor Virgil, but I made an appointment with Roy to go to the market......"
“……”
Roy was a little speechless and could only smirk at Instructor Fergill.
Instructor Virgil was a little helpless, and he couldn't lose his temper in this situation, so he could only maintain a stiff smile on his face, and said to Roy and Sabrina: "The market is also very lively over there. ”
Then, watch the two leave.
Sabrina pulled Roy forward briskly for a while, and then said to Roy:
"Hey, do you know how ugly your smile was just now?"
Roy looked around, looking for the clubhouse of the Adventurers' Guild, and said, "I just want to behave naturally, my expression just now is unnatural." ”
Sabrina followed Roy and complained with a smile, "It's so embarrassing." ”
“……”
Roy walked around the small market in the barrier village again, and after greeting the group of people in the caravan, he searched for a long time before he found the hut next to a trading house not far from the small market, Roy did not expect that this was the clubhouse of the adventurer's union.
It is to rent a room in a commercial house, and there is an inconspicuous plaque hanging at the door.
There was a knock on the door, but no one answered.
Gently pushing the door open, I found that the door was not locked, there was not even a counter inside, there were some bookshelves on the four walls of the room, and there was a chair in the center of the room, and an old elf was lying on the chair, and the book in his hand fell to the ground, as if he was asleep.
"Hello, is this the Adventurer's Guild?" Roy asked cautiously, standing in the doorway.
"Oh? Oh! …… Oh, this is it, do you have anything you can help with? There are a few adventurers in the village, but they don't come here very often, so you want to put some recruitment information on the bulletin board, and you may not find a suitable candidate for a while, if you can afford to wait......"
The old elf rubbed his nose, pointed behind the door, and said to Roy, "The notice board is over there, you can post recruitment information casually." ”
"I'm here to find some news, I want to know where to find the Flower of Light here in the Barrier Village." Roy said as he stood in front of the old elf.
The old elf sat up, he looked at Roy with some confusion, and said: "Those magic herbs are basically useless, not so much magic potions, but ornamental plants, what are you looking for them?" ”
"I just like it, and if I want to buy two, or if there's one there, I'll find it myself......" Roy said.
"You're a member of the Adventurers' Guild?" The old elf hesitated and asked Roy.
Roy took out the member's nameplate, and the old elf checked it carefully, then stood up, and said to Roy while walking towards the bookshelf: "You really found the right place, I do have the information of the Flower of Light here, this thing has not been cared for, so it is pressed at the bottom of the bookshelf to eat dust." ”
The old elf crouched in front of the bookshelf and retrieved a stack of materials from the bottom, and sure enough, it was covered with dust.
"Probably right here."
After saying that, he handed the stack of materials to Roy, and a cloud of dust flew up.
"Just find a place to sit down and flip it through yourself, you can't take these materials with you, where did you come from the adventure group?"
"Castletown City."
"Ahh I've been there for that beautiful harbor city, and I hope you'll get something out of your visit to Barrier Village. ”
There are no extra chairs in the room,
Roy pulled two cushions from his magical fanny pack, spread them in the corner of the room, and sat down with Sabrina.
Sabrina sat on the cushion with her legs bent and carefully checked every piece of information, which was recorded by the Adventurer's Guild here, and could be consulted for free as long as she was a member of the Adventurer's Guild, of course, these were some ordinary information, and it only took a little time and patience.
Two people looked up the information much faster than one person, and soon found two pieces of information about the Flower of Light.
"It says that some elven hunters have seen flowers of light on the summit of the ramparts, and they grow next to the griffon's lair......"
Sabrina saw a message and whispered.
Roy hurriedly put down the information in his hand and leaned his head over.
The old elf lying on the chair opened his eyes at this time.
"Young man, don't approach those griffons easily, the higher the place, the more powerful they will be, and whether this news is true or not, it is not worth the risk depending on its danger." The old elf lay down in his chair and interjected.
Roy understood the vague meaning of the old elf's words, this news could not only be fake, but also particularly dangerous, the flower of light, a worthless magic grass, is not worth looking for in such a dangerous place.
Roy hurriedly asked the old elf, "What kind of information can be entered into the club's database?" ”
"Actually, any message is fine, as long as you can get the proof, for example, if you tell us that you found a pack of dire wolves in a certain jungle, as long as you can show me the head of the dire wolf, I can record this information in the file, and the time and the name of the adventure group will be marked later." The old elf pointed to the mark at the end of the message and said, "Well, it's usually marked here!" ”
"We recorded these messages so that we could give some hints to the later adventure groups...... "The old elf added.
After a while, Sabrina was heard again:
"There is also a note of the Flower of Light, an elven hunter who saw some flowers of light at the end of this valley and stream, and he transplanted some of them, but not many of them survived."
Roy was thrilled when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "The end of the valley?" This valley doesn't seem to be very long, so if you have the chance, you can try your luck there. ”
The two searched in the Adventurers' Guild for a while, but unfortunately they searched through the stack of materials and found no other information about the Flower of Light.
During this time, some adventurers came to the union, and everyone seemed to have come to check the information.
An elf saw Roy and Sabrina sitting in the corner, and came over to ask if the two of them had an adventure group, and if not, they could join their adventure group.
After receiving Roy's affirmative answer, the elves stopped asking.
The elves flipped through the shelves at random, and some posted messages on the bulletin board behind the door.
The room was not very large, and a few elves were crowded in at once, and it immediately seemed a little crowded.
They seemed to know each other, and one of the elves asked:
"How's the recent harvest going? I don't think those griffons are getting more and more cunning, there are a few traps on our side, and none of them have come in the last month. ”
"Things aren't going well on our side either, we caught two of them this month, and they almost wore their fur to the ground before they died......
Roy didn't listen to the elves either, and left the adventurer's guild after checking the information.
Walking out into the street, Roy looked at the sky and said to Sabrina:
"I've been busy with my business all morning, where are you going? Can I help? ”
"No, I just want to walk around the Barrier Village, it's a very clean gathering place for half-blood elves, and it looks very good." Sabrina walked down the street and said to Roy.
At this time, some half-blood elves in the village ran towards the bottom of the valley, as if something was going on there.
Roy and Sabrina happened to be fine, so they ran down the valley with the half-blood elves.
The half-blood elves stood on the bank of the river, and everyone's eyes fell on the other side of the river, because it was the shady side of the mountain col, and there were almost no tree houses built on the opposite slope, and now on the other side of the valley, a group of silver moon elf warriors were erecting a boundary monument next to the river, and the boundary monument was clearly marked:
'The land north of the boundary monument, all the way south of the city of Padesto, is owned by the lord of Arvis, and any elf entering the territory of the lord of Arvis will need to pay taxes, including but not limited to toll tax, value-added tax on goods, and if there is no VAT on goods, the goods carried will be judged to be goods obtained in the territory of the lord of Arvis, and this part of the goods will be subject to ownership tax. ’
Seeing this boundary monument, the half-blood elves in the fortress village were in an uproar.
An extremely simple boundary monument completely deprived the large wooded hunting grounds in the north of the barrier village, and all these woodlands turned into the private property of the elven nobles.
"How can they do that? What authority do they have to do so? Could it be that they carved out this land? ”
"The land north of the barrier village was gradually included after we built the barrier village, how can they say that they will be rowed away?"
A group of half-blood elves were talking around the valley, and everyone looked incredulous.
"I heard from my brothers from the village in the north yesterday, I thought they were joking, but I didn't expect this to happen to us today!"
"This boundary monument can't be erected here without our consent, hurry up and move it away!"
A half-blood elf stepped out of the group of elves and shouted at the Silver Moon Elf warriors.
The elven warriors ignored the protests of the half-blood elves and buried the boundary monument on their own.
