Heaven’s Intention

At the mayor's house, after dinner and careful inquiry about the situation, the two came back. By this time, it was already late at night.

Romon got some clues, was very happy, and met the shopkeeper.

The owner, known as Cary, was an old man in his early fifties with a stocky build.

Although the baron has moved to Yishi Town, there is a pier outside the town, and there is an east-west avenue leading to many places, so there will always be some passing guests who come to the town to eat or stay. Not bad.

In this small shop with the hotel in the front and the hotel in the back, besides this smiling old man, there is also a little guy who helps.

When Romon and Aiweixi came back, old Kari was performing his special skill, beer was burning, and a few large glasses were flying up and down in his hands. After a while, the beer that was originally yellow, There was an astonishing change.

It seems to be multicolored. Bubbles rise up in the cup, and under the light, they are extremely beautiful.

When Romon participated in the Harvest Festival in Rika Town, he already knew the wonders of tricks in this world. However, this was the first time he saw the method of combining simple tricks into food and beverages!

After the other party finished their performance and happily served several large glasses of beer and wine to the customers in the store, Romon walked over and went up to say hello.

But at this moment, it seemed that he didn't hear it, and Kari didn't even look at it. He glanced at the boy and said, I'm going to rest for a while, and you can take care of it here.

Then, he turned and left.

Romon was startled, then subconsciously glanced at Ai Weixi next to her, and saw that she also frowned slightly.

Both guests, oh, Mr. Romon, may I ask you what I can do for you? At this time, the young man walked up to the two of Romon cheerfully. This boy was even younger than Romon. They came up a little bit, but they had a pleasant smile, which was quite flattering. When they saw Romon who had been brought in just now, they hurriedly greeted him.

Luo Meng nodded: Help, this lady, book a room, it's next to my room!

Yes, Lord Romon!

Romon nodded slightly, but his gaze followed the short and fat figure, and it took a long time to retract it. It has to be said that the shop owner's reaction was a little strange.

Listen to the coachman say,

Rika has a good temper and is warm to people. He will greet all the customers who come to his store with a very warm and thoughtful attitude.

Not to mention, he came to investigate on behalf of the lord.

However, just like this, the shop owner, who was warm and even respectful to people just now, suddenly seemed to be a different person.

If it is said that when they first stepped into the small shop, the other party's glance was their illusion, then the other party's sudden departure just now is too coincidental.

In the distance, the coachman was still drinking. After hesitating, Romon didn't ask him. After all, although he was a coachman in name, he was actually a guide, so he continued to walk in with the guy.

When Romon walked through the door, he turned his head and glanced back. After he and Ai Weixi left, that Kari returned to the front shop and continued to entertain the guests warmly.

Strange old man. Romon shook his head. He didn't understand how he and Ai Weixi angered each other and made the other party show such a cold attitude towards them. However, they only planned to stay here for one night, and tomorrow After leaving, although he noticed some changes in the other party's attitude, Romon was only slightly curious and didn't take it to heart.

The boy arranged the room, and Romon took Ai Weixi into the room.

Ai Weixi didn't look carefully just now, but now she looks over and sees that the environment is not bad. There is a bed, a chair, and a small table in the room. Although the bedding on the bed is not brand new, it should have just been changed and is very clean. , and with a faint fragrance, he nodded.

Miss Avesy, rest, let's continue tomorrow. Romon greeted, and went back to his room, which had almost the same furnishings. There was a kettle and a small cup on the small table. A little thirsty, I picked up the small pot and saw that it was dry.

He carried the pot and pushed the door out, intending to ask the boy for some water, but when he was about to go downstairs, there was a conversation between two people in the room at the corner.

Come on, captain, eat more. A rough man's voice said.

Captain, it's not bad... By the way, Nip, the place we are going this time, we have to climb over the mountain in front of us. I heard that there are monsters appearing on the mountain. I think we should not take this risk and take a detour. Let's go. Another voice said.

I've also heard about monsters, but for a rumor, I walked more than ten kilometers... The first person hesitated, as if he didn't quite believe the legend.

Believe it or not, I heard people say a few days ago that the mountain is really weird. There used to be a village inside the mountain. There were hundreds of people in the village. They used to communicate with the outside world. Suddenly one day , I don’t know why, the whole village disappeared, and I can’t find it anymore. Then, some strange things began to appear in the mountains. I think, the monster this time may have something to do with the disappearance of the village... ...

After speaking, the voice gradually lowered.

And Romon, who was standing outside and listening all the time, felt very interested after hearing the story of this disappeared village, and secretly remembered it in his heart.

When he was about to go back to the house with a pot of water from the front, he happened to see that the light in Aiweixi's room was still on, so he couldn't help knocking on the door, and said outside: Miss Aiweixi, I've already ordered a bottle for you. The bucket of hot water will be delivered in a while, I hope you have a good night's sleep.

Then, without further ado, he pushed open the door of his room and walked in. He knew that Miss Avisy loved cleanliness very much, and she had to take a shower almost every day, not to mention running such a long distance.

Sure enough, Ai Weixi was about to go downstairs to ask for some water and take a shower. When she heard what Romon said, she was taken aback. She first showed a smile, and then shook her head.

The night passed quickly, and when the sun rose from the east and the sky gradually brightened, Romon and Ai Weixi also washed up and reappeared in the front shop.

The two simply ordered some food. While eating, Romon observed the busy Kari. Sure enough, several times, the other party cast a strange look at their table. However, because once in a while The eyes of the two happened to meet, and the other party seemed to be shocked, and never looked over.

Strange old man. Romon shook his head, decided not to pay any attention to the abnormal behavior of the other party, and lowered his head to eat. When he and Ai Weixi finished eating and paid the money to leave, the shop owner was obviously hesitant to speak, but after all, what? Didn't say either.

Romon, do you think this shop owner is a bit strange? Aiweixi and Luomeng were riding slowly, and Aiweixi suddenly said this.

Romon nodded: It's really strange. When we first went, he seemed very enthusiastic, but after we came back from the mayor's house, his attitude became very cold... By the way, yesterday I heard a The legend is like this... Romon roughly told Ai Weixi the story he heard yesterday, and Ai Weixi fell into deep thought after hearing it.

Look at the map the lord gave us. The two took out the map and looked at it carefully. Sure enough, there was a sign of a small village where the valley was marked.

According to the mark on the map, just follow the road we are walking straight forward. After walking about ten kilometers, you will see the small village outside the valley. Let's go and have a look now. , see if we can find the problem from this disappeared village. Romon said.

Avisi nodded: Okay, it's up to you.

After the two finished speaking, they urged the horse to continue walking along the road.

Because the further you go, the closer you are to the valley, so the road starts to become difficult. Romon slowed down with concern, and turned around and asked, Miss Avesy, are you okay?

I'm fine. Ai Weixi shook her head, seemingly unaffected.

Luo Meng was a little puzzled, he felt bumpy, she didn't seem to have much influence, could it be that he was holding on? With this thought in mind, Romon slowed down the speed of the horse and expressed his opinion with actions.

Romon's actions made Ai Weixi laugh dumbly, her eyes flashed, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't say it, and unconsciously, the two of them seemed to be immersed in a strange atmosphere of silence.

Until, a village appeared in the sight of the two of them...

From the hills, the small village in the valley below is indeed not big, and a winding path extends to the village.

Between the mountain depressions, some farmhouses are gathered together. Looking from top to bottom, this small village has only about 30 households, and the scale is only the size of the new territory of Romon.

On a small plain between the hills, you can see a row of farmland, and there are big and strong cattle and sheep dotted among them.

At this time, it was noon, and wisps of cooking smoke came out and drifted over the mountain depression.

This is a peaceful and peaceful rural scenery, but suddenly, Romon felt very strange, he scratched his scalp and thought carefully.

Suddenly, he showed a surprised look, and looked at Miss Avesey.

This village doesn't seem to be affected? Miss Aiweixi asked lightly, breaking Romon's feeling with one word.

Romon suddenly realized, and nodded again and again.

The entire baron's territory has experienced different degrees of production reduction, and Jumu Town is particularly serious. Only this small village vassal to Jumu Town seems to have lush green crops and has not been affected at all, which is too strange!

Romon suddenly became suspicious. He frowned and asked, Miss Avesy, shall we go down now, or will we bring some people later?

He was worried about Miss Avisey's safety.

Miss Avesy thought for a while, then shook her head and said, Let's go down and have a look first!

The safety of the two three-pole druids should not be a problem. Romon thought about it and nodded. Immediately, the two riders descended from the hills, followed the road, and went straight to the village.
