232 Swamp Town

The revival calendar is 2 years, and it is winter.

Winter came very early this year, just after November, and the raging cold snap began to run across the continent, sowing the seeds of disaster along the way. The mountains of Snowton in the north are already covered with snow, and even in the warm areas of the south, snowflakes that have not been seen for many years are falling one after another.

On the southeastern edge of the Misty Swamp, the town is covered with crumbs.

The muddy ground is a mix of snow and mud, creaking with every step you step on, making it even more difficult for trekkers. The sky was dark, and every family in the town finished work early, closed their doors and enjoyed the warmth of reunion. The hot mist mixed with the scent of stew occasionally seeped through the crack in the door, causing Illo to twitch his nose repeatedly.

"What a coincidence, there's actually a tavern up ahead," the half-elf turned his head and laughed, pointing his finger ahead, "Why don't we take a break?"

"Coincidentally?" Bai Ji, who was carrying a spear, glanced at him and snorted, "You're the one who leads the way all the way, and the detection ability of 'sensitive touch', so don't make excuses for your laziness." ”

"How so?" said Illo, his eyes wide and an innocent look on his face, "I can't be 'tactile' at all times, it's too tiring. ”

"Alright, alright," Allegri smiled helplessly, waved his hand to stop the usual quarrel between the two, and ordered, "then take a break, it's not in a hurry anyway." ”

"Okay. Illoha smiled, and led the way to the tavern.

On the low wooden door of the tavern, a simple wild boar pattern is painted with furnace ash, and the painting style is rude. Illo lifted the curtain and pushed open the heavy wooden door.

Inside and outside, there are simply two worlds.

On one side is the quiet snowfall, the cold air, and the empty streets. Piles of logs and huts scattered under a gloomy sky. On one side is the noisy and noisy hall, with orange flames and talkative adventurers, mixed with the strange smell of meat and sweat.

The town is located on the border between the Misty Swamp and the Torm Federation, and is the last advance stop for expeditions into the swamps. The turmoil of the Ogre Tribe this summer had left the town in a semi-abandoned state, but the Ogre Tribe seemed to have resettled since the beginning of autumn. More and more adventurers and merchants are coming back to make a living. However, the sudden cold wave forced them to stay in the town temporarily, and the slightly dirty tavern became bustling again.

"Hey, adventurer," Illo said in a loud voice as he got inside, and the boss behind the bar greeted him with a smile, "A handsome half-elf ranger?

Follow behind Illo. "So there's a beautiful lady among you, and what a rarity," he turned his head and yelled, "Little Boogie." Where are you dead? Come and greet the guests. ”

"Boss, shut up. A fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy came out from the other end and retorted unceremoniously, "There are so many guests these days, do you want to exhaust me?"

"This little rabbit cub ......" the boss shook his head again and again, and could only turn around and greet him personally, "What do you want?"

"Two rooms. A table, and food and drink," Illo was usually in charge of everything when he was out and about, he thought for a moment. He continued, "By the way, get us some more dry food." ”

"Dry food, eat and drink...... All this is fine," said the boss helplessly, "but the tables are full, and the room is not empty, so at most one more can be freed." ”

"Really?" Illo frowned, glancing back inquiringly at Pakki and the hooded Allegri.

"One room is definitely not enough......" Allegri shook his head, and just as he was about to ask again, he heard a drunken man laugh at the table next to him,

"It's okay, you can live in one room for the two of you. ”

"What about her?" Allegri was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled inexplicably under the hood, pointing at Bai Ji beside him.

"This beautiful young lady, of course, lives in my room......" The big man laughed strangely at the same time with a few vulgar mercenary warriors on his table, "We can have a good exchange of feelings with this young lady......

Several pairs of lewd eyes swept over at the same time, and Bai Ji leaned behind the two of them uneasily. At the same time, sparse laughter could be heard from all corners of the tavern hall, but no one stopped it.

Illo's eyes were cold, his hand had already subconsciously touched the longbow on his back, and the reaction of the other side was not slow, several warriors slapped the table and yelled to stand up, wielding the weapons leaning on the side and staring at them. Suddenly there were voices of encouragement and applause from those who feared that the world would not be chaotic, but the tavern owner was very calm, and looked at all this with a smile, and had no intention of making a sound.

"I'll come," Allegri raised his hand to stop Illo, took a step forward, ignoring the sharp weapons that were close at hand, and nodded at a few warriors and smirked, "How many of you really want to exchange feelings with her? That's fine......

There was a sudden scolding from all around, reprimanding him for this "soft egg" behavior, not because he wanted to be righteous and brave, but because he didn't have a lively look.

"Okay, that's interesting. The big man looked around viciously, and the voices around him suddenly became quieter, and it was obvious that he was also quite notorious. He pinned the short axe to his waist and threw down a silver coin casually, "Look at your thin appearance, you are a scout, right? ”

"Yes, yes, it's good that the masters are happy," Allegri pretended to be smiling, picked up the silver coin on the table, turned his head and ordered, "Bai Ji, go out with these masters to 'exchange' feelings!"

"This ......" Bai Ji glanced at Allegri with some hesitation and asked in a low voice, "can you do anything?"

"Of course," Allegri nodded, wincing, "whatever the masters want, whatever they want." ”

"Tsk, do whatever you want...... a few warriors repeated lewdly, licking the corners of their mouths, pushing Bai Ji towards the courtyard behind the hall. This kind of tavern in a small town. Often the backyard is a guest room, which is a good place to exchange feelings.

On the table next to them, some people were full of regret that such a beautiful chick was about to be ruined by those vulgar guys. They looked at Allegri with hatred, they didn't expect this guy to be so bare. I agreed so happily.

Allegri didn't seem to care, and smiled at the boss, "Look, they're all gone, and this table is ours, right?"

"Huh?" the boss was stunned, obviously he didn't expect Allegri's face to be so thick-skinned, and nodded for a while, "Of course, you just sit." ”

Allegri and Illo sat at the table. Lapping the snow on his body, resting his tired body. Allegri glanced at the leftovers on the table, looked up and shouted, "Well, little Boogie, come and clean up the table." ”

The young man walked over slowly, looked at the soft egg in front of him with disdain, reluctantly wiped the table a few times, and said casually. "Okay, what do you want?"

"Clean it up. Allegri commanded, slapping the silver coin on the table, "Give me some more good wine and food, this is a tip, hurry." ”

"Shameless. Little Boogie snorted, not even glancing at the coin. Directly left Allegri with a disdainful back.

At this moment, the back door suddenly opened, and Bai Ji walked in with a spear.

Neatly dressed, wisps of blood dripping from the tips of their guns, the warriors were completely gone.

"It's over. Head. In everyone's astonished gaze, Bai Ji sat down at the table, looking relieved.

"Yes," Allegri nodded approvingly, shouting at the bar, "boss, their room is ours too, you can help us clean it." ”

"Oh?" the boss was stunned, glanced deeply at Allegri, and nodded hurriedly, "Okay, good." ”

"You see, what a good thing," said Allegri, smiling, "the table is there, the room is there, and the Bai Ji is moving, it's a triple win." ”

"It's okay, it's not fully moving," Bai Ji shook her head, dissatisfied, "They're too unbeaten." ”

"It's better than nothing, if I hadn't wanted to reveal my identity, I would have charcoal roasted them a long time ago," Allegri shook his head and changed the subject, "Let's have a good rest today, and enter the swamp early tomorrow morning." ”

"Isn't this really whimsical?" the faces of the three of them turned serious, and Illo whispered, "Evil gods are not easy to communicate with, they have a down-looking attitude towards all living beings, and it is impossible to talk to us on an equal footing. ”

"That being said," Allegri smiled, "but we have you, and now that you have hit him so badly, and now that you are alive and kicking in front of him, he is not afraid that you will give him a moment?"

Allegri rarely slapped him on the back, and Illo's smiling eyes narrowed, and he nodded again and again, "That's right, with me present, he must be honest." ”

At this time, little Boogie slipped back from the backyard and whispered something in the boss's ear, and the two of them glanced at the three of them in surprise and hurriedly delivered the food they ordered.

Allegri smiled and glanced at the full tray and tossed a gold coin in his hand.

"It doesn't take so much. The young man waved his hand nervously and peeked at Bai Ji, who was also a well-known and powerful warrior in the neighborhood, but was now lying in the mud and humming.

"Not much, including their porterage," Allegri smiled and tapped on the table, "Now that you've seen it all, are you still reluctant to ask for a tip?"

"Yes, yes. After all, it was a young man's heart, and little Boogie hurriedly picked up the silver coins and looked at them with amazement on his face. He hesitated for a moment, then leaned over to Bai Ji and asked admiringly, "Big sister, I misunderstood you just now, but it turns out that you are the strongest of the three of you." ”

Bai Ji was stunned for a moment, shook his head with a wry smile, and pointed to the smiling "soft egg",

"No, he is. (To be continued......)
