Chapter 32 White Rock Town
In Nogo, White Rock is a relatively independent town.Farmers, blacksmiths, tailors, businessmen who come from all over for a break, and townspeople who use their houses to set up various industries to provide services form a whole.For safety reasons, some young and strong townspeople, as well as some down-and-out mercenaries with nowhere to go, were hired by the town to become patrol militia.

Aiwen is an aborigine in the small town of Baishi - from Aiwen's grandfather, even earlier, their family has come to this town.Three years ago, after the ex-mayor appointed by the kingdom and aristocrats fled in embarrassment under the threat of the Tasian's iron hooves, the powerful blacksmith Old Aiwen became the new mayor of the town through the election of the townspeople. .As for little Aiwen, he also took advantage of the trend and opened a grocery store with the savings of the old and young family's blacksmith career for many years.

His business has been booming, and besides his status in the small town, he also has a warm and cheerful personality.

The leader of the bandits is hard to sit in the room like a male wild wolf in estrus. His ferocious appearance seems to scare away the few guests, but Aiwen is not annoyed at all, and he is laughing and laughing. chatting.

"Glo, you seem to be stronger than before."

"Where do you see it? Is the beard longer?"

Glo responded to Alvin with a fake expression.The two first met two years ago. After many interactions over a long period of time, they gradually became familiar with each other. In addition to business, they often made harmless jokes.

The bandit leader has been trying to act nonchalantly, chatting and laughing as usual, but his brows condensed into a ball, revealing his thoughts.

Alvin saw it.

The morning sun shone through the door curtain made of thin linen, and cast beams of white light on the floor of the grocery store.Fine dust floats in the air, revealing whereabouts that are rarely shown at ordinary times - jumping up and down irregularly and willfully, conflicting left and right.

"Glo, don't worry too much. The captain of the militia on duty today is Xiaoshi, and he will definitely tell us as soon as there is news. You also know that guy, he is not serious, but he has rules... I have asked someone to talk to him Said about it."

As Ivan spoke, he took out a bottle of rum from the cabinet, and then took out two cups from the closet, two delicate goblets that clearly had the aristocratic style of Elantra.Pull out the cork, and the light green liquid with some turbid particles pours into the cup, bringing a touch of coolness to this hot summer.

"Rum from Laches, top quality."

Ivan handed over a cup and nodded to Glo.

"Thank you, just a little thirsty."

Glo threw his head back and drank it down.It's not that the otaku doesn't know how to taste wine, but now that he's a bandit, he doesn't want to act extraordinarily different.Besides, he was really thirsty.

“Very nice drinks.”

"I think so too."

Feeling the touch of the cold liquid sliding down his throat, Glo put down the cup and seemed to notice some movement. He suddenly opened the door curtain and looked at the street outside - amidst the noisy streets of Baishi Town in the morning, a group of people appeared. Carriages either stopped in front of a house or left the street loaded with goods.Accents from all over the kingdom, or languages ​​from other parts of the continent, echoed in the air, and the scene of trading was lively.Except for the bosses or managers of the chamber of commerce, most of the chamber of commerce associates working on the front line stood on both sides of the street, talking loudly and laughing about their experiences and gains.

However, Glo's eyes did not find anything else - at one end of the street in the town, a man with a round head and a round figure was running towards here. With his bumpy footsteps, the fat on his body was shaking up and down, and the sweat was constantly dripping from his body. It slid off the dark and smooth skin, and sprinkled long spots of water on the road.

"Here comes Stone—"

Alvin got out of the grocery store.It's just that when he saw the fat figure, he quickly retreated to the counter, quickly put away the rum and wine glasses—Stoun, that is, the little stone, is good for everything, the only one who can't leave when he sees good wine Moves, and gets drunk easily.

After getting drunk, it's drunkenness.Everyone in the town knew about this situation, so alcohol and other beverages were completely cut off from Stoun.

However, Glo's mood was obviously relaxed, and his eyes followed Stoun's figure from far to near, until the strong smell of sweat hit his face and hit his nostrils.

"Ewen, don't hide anymore, I smell the aroma of rum. Ah, the wolf is here too."

Stoun opened the door curtain, fluttered his nose, and began to look around in the grocery store. When his eyes fell on Glo, his expression became serious, "Wolf, are you looking for news about your companion?"

After questioning Glo on his own, Stoen finally found the target in the corner behind the counter—the owner of the grocery store, who is also the only clerk in the store, squatting on the ground with a A piece of rag, wiped the vase carefully, without even lifting the eyelids, as if no visitor was noticed at all.

"Hey, Ivan, is this your attitude towards old friends?"

"What did you find?"

Alvin stood up calmly.It's still morning, and it's still Storn's patrol time.He knew very well that if something special hadn't happened, Stone wouldn't have been here.

Now what he brings is the news that everyone cares about-especially Glo.His scorching eyes were fixed on Ston's fat face, wishing to see a flower.

"Only three caravans entered the town this morning."

Stoun truthfully reported the situation.Glo was very disappointed, but his disappointment had just begun to be interrupted by the two thick lips on the fat face, "It seems that something terrible happened in the eastern valley."

boom--

As soon as Stoun's words fell, there was an earth-shattering loud noise-the whole house was shaken, the dust on the ceiling fell down, Ivan supported the counter, and Glo leaned against the wall.Because of his huge weight, Stoun stood still, but his fat face was unprecedentedly solemn, his lips opened and closed twice, and he was about to say something, but suddenly turned around and ran out——

He is the captain of the militia in Baishi town, and some things are within the scope of his duties.

Immediately, Glo and Aiwen rushed out of the house together, and the streets of the town were already in chaos, with overturned carriages, frightened horses in nooses, scattered goods on the ground, and panicked businessmen. , the townspeople also ran out of their houses, looking at the mountains in the distance.

A straight black smoke rose into the sky, straight into the sky——

Stoun stared at the direction of the black smoke, and there was a rare trace of fear in his eyes.
