Chapter 43 The Little Village on a Rainy Night

Chapter 43 The Little Village on a Rainy Night
Because of the heavy rain, many creatures hid in their nests to avoid the rain, but a few creatures left their nests to look for food.Under normal circumstances, Green would be happy to encounter such experience points, but now Green just wants to set up a stall as soon as possible and reach the nearby village.

"Tsk! Mitchell, use the lighting technique, let's speed up." Green didn't hesitate to let Mitchell use the last lighting technique, and then the group rushed over directly.

Creatures cherish life, there is no such thing as a lifeless creature, so few nocturnal creatures will go to the light to attack humans, especially when the target has combat power and there is more than one person.Therefore, when Mitchell used the lighting, the "magic power source" in Saqia's mouth quickly gave up on Green and his party-animals understand the truth that "if you don't die, you won't die", so unless it is They have no choice but to retreat, otherwise they will not easily attack "combat" humans.

Green and his party passed the ambush of unknown creatures smoothly.

The duration of illumination is limited.After running for a certain distance, the lighting technique went out again, and the world fell into darkness again.

Mitchell quickly grabbed Green's arm: "Senior, senior, what should we do now?"

"Let's go slowly..." Green wiped the rain from his face and sighed, "It's not far away."

There is a unit in the team that does not have extraordinary vision, which greatly slows down the team's progress, but fortunately, it is not far from the destination at this time.

Burning Wood Village is a small village located on the edge of Devin Forest. It belongs to Kapoor Port. Its location is off the main road. The population of the whole village is no more than a hundred people, and there are no special products, except that officials will come to collect taxes every year. In addition, even traveling salesmen seldom patronize.

It was already late at night when Green arrived at the village based on the memory of his previous life and with the help of the system map.

It was a small village with a population of only a hundred people.Wooden fences surrounded the entire village, and two braziers were placed under the canopy at the entrance of the village, dispelling the surrounding darkness, and at the same time making it impossible for any people or beasts who tried to approach the village to hide.

When Green and Shakia approached the village, they were immediately discovered by the militiamen on the sentry tower.

"Who?" The militiamen on the sentry tower raised their bows and arrows, aiming at the darkness where Green and his party were.

"We are travelers fleeing from the north. Because of the heavy rain, we want to rest in the village for one night."

Green's words instantly attracted the attention of the militiamen: "Fleeing from the north? Did something happen in the north?"

"Huh? Don't you know? The undead disaster broke out in the north, and many villages have fallen. Even the situation in the town of Yorn is not good."

"what!?"

Green was somewhat surprised that the village didn't know about the natural disaster of the undead.But considering that this village is not on the main road, ordinary refugees will never pass by here, so Green can understand.Because the news brought by Green is really exciting!After a brief discussion with his teammates, the militiamen took Green and his party straight to the village's house.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

"Village head! Village head!" The militiaman loudly knocked on the door of the village head's house and shouted.

Perhaps it was because the movement of the militiamen was too loud, which woke up the child, and there was a cry of a baby in the room.

Not long after, an old man who looked about five or sixty years old held an oil lamp and opened the door: "Tom, can't you be lighter?"

"Village chief, these three foreigners just came to the village and said that the town of Yorn has fallen into the hands of the undead."

"What?" The village chief's eyes narrowed and he turned his attention to Green and the others. "You said that Yohn Town was occupied by the undead?"

"In Lower Green, these two are my companions. We drove all day in the rain, and now we are cold and tired. Do you have a hotel here?" Green never mentioned the undead.

The village head stared at Green for a while, and observed the clothes of Green and his party. Although Green and Saskia were wearing cloaks, the village head could still see the identities of the group of people in front of him through his old eyes.

A priest of Mother Earth, a maid with badly torn clothes, and a well-spoken teenager.Priest?Maid?juvenile?This combination is involuntarily reminiscent of a scene in a legendary adventure story-the troubled noble boy led his servants and followers, went through untold hardships, and finally regained his territory and rebuilt his homeland.

"It seems that you have indeed experienced a lot." The village head stepped aside and opened the door. "There is no hotel in the village. You can rest in my guest room for one night."

As the village chief moved away from the door, Green finally saw the situation in the house clearly.

It was a very spacious living room, the decoration looked quite church-style, and there was a small altar placed in the end.Above the altar, the holy symbol of Pelor, the god of light, emitted a faint light.

"Can you prepare some food and hot water for me by the way? I want to take a hot bath, otherwise I will get sick." Green took out a gold coin and handed it to the village chief.

The village chief glanced at Green and his party, and accepted the gold coins: "The hot water will have to wait for a while, please go to the room with me first." The village chief led Green and his party into the house, "There is only one guest room, but There are still quite a few vacant rooms. If you don’t mind sleeping on the floor, I can prepare another vacant room for you.”

Green: "Well, sorry to trouble you."

"What happened in the north?" The village chief began to ask Green about the situation in the north.

"The situation is serious." Because the village chief had agreed to Green and his party staying here, Green did not hide the information. "It is known that Silver Leaf Town has been occupied by the undead, and Jorn Town has also fallen into the trap." Surrounded by the undead, the specific situation is unknown."

"Is that so..." The village chief frowned, "Is there something wrong with Blackstone Fortress?"

"If there was a problem with Blackstone Fortress, it would have been overwhelmed by the undead long ago." Green denied, "There should be some human nobles who betrayed the kingdom and turned to the undead." Believe in the undead, and you will live forever.For human aristocrats, the temptation of immortality is not so easy to resist. If it weren't for the high cost and too many sequelae, the undead would have ruled the world long ago.

The village chief frowned slightly, thinking about the credibility of Green's words.

Under the leadership of the village chief, Green and his party arrived at the attic on the second floor of the village chief's house.

It was a very simple room with nothing but a bed and a table.

The village chief lit an oil lamp in the room: "This is the guest room, and there is an empty room next to it. I will have someone bring you a quilt later."

"Okay, sorry to bother you."

"It's okay." The village chief said and left the room.

Green went to the next room to take a look.The room next to it was completely empty, with nothing in it, but it was barely enough as a temporary shelter from the wind and rain.Then the problem comes...

Who sleeps in the guest room and who sleeps in the empty room?
