Chapter 37: McGonagall Village in the Shadows

　　Meg ​​Village is the largest in the surrounding villages of Yuanshan City, comparable to some small towns.
　　 There is a lot of ale, and the best ale can even be sold to cities outside of Far Mountain City.
　　 Therefore, although McGonagall Village is only a village, the life of the villagers is quite prosperous and can be regarded as a comfortable town.
　　 However, just recently, the atmosphere in McGonagall Village has become more solemn.
　　 One by one village guards patrolled the village to guard the safety of the village.
　　Especially the night of the full moon every month, it is even more like an enemy.
　　 Because at this time, there are unmarried girls in the village who are sucked blood and die at home.
　　 What makes people shudder even more is that these girls have extremely happy smiles on their faces, very strange.
　　 This situation has been maintained for half a year, that is to say, six young girls have died so strangely.
　　 It is not that no one has come to investigate things here during this time.
　　 For example, the church has sent two middle-level pastors to investigate the situation here.
　　 However, neither of the two intermediate priests found any news.
　　 Therefore, slowly, the person in charge of this part of the church designated this area as a thieves killing for various reasons.
　　 This also made the church never send over half a person, which is equivalent to abandoning McGonagall Village.
　　 As for those bounty hunters and mercenaries, they can do things even if they charge money.
　　 But most of them are weak guys, just a little better than ordinary people.
　　 A low-level knight is a rare master among bounty hunters and mercenaries.
　　 So, when I found some bounty hunters and mercenaries, but they were of no use.
　　Rao is the wealthy McGonagall Village and gradually can't afford the sky-high asking prices of those bounty hunters and mercenaries.
　　 Over time, McGonagall Village has become more and more repulsive to outsiders in the past six months.
　　 The originally wealthy and enlightened village has become overcast, repelling outsiders, and gradually closed.
　　 And a stranger wearing a cloak covering his face and carrying a bow and arrow and cross sword on his back naturally aroused alertness.
　　 Ai Er was wearing a cloak, looking at the village in front of him that was very different from what he told him when he heard the old gun was still alive.
　　 He frowned slightly, if he did not see the name of McGonagall Village and the large number of ale barrels nearby.
　　 Then Al really thought he had gone the wrong place and came to another village.
　　 stepped forward slowly, Al looked at the few guards standing at the entrance of the village, looking at his village guard with a vigilant expression.
　　 He lowered his voice and asked, "This is McGonagall Village? I wonder where is the accommodation in the village?"
　　 There are two village guards guarding the entrance of McGonagall. One of them, the older one, looked at Al, his eyes full of vigilance.
　　 "Who are you, mercenary? Bounty hunter? Or those ugly ghosts!"
　　Al looked at the middle-aged village guard who was approaching while talking, frowning tightly.
　　Because he can clearly feel the anger and dangers emanating from the opponent.
　　 If it was not certain that the other party was just an ordinary person, then Al had just drawn his sword in an instant.
　　 took a step back and waved his hand. Al said, "Mr., please relax and don't be nervous.
　　 I'm just a wandering traveler. I heard that the ale in McGonagall Village is the best in the nearby area.
　　 So I set out here, wanting to taste the ale of McGonagall Village and see the local customs of McGonagall Village.
　　 I am not hostile to you, and ask this gentleman to step back, otherwise I will not just be beaten and not fight back! "
When 　　 said these words, it shows that he has no malice, but also faintly showed his tough side.
　　 And this also made the originally excited middle-aged village guard calm down a little, and stopped approaching Al.
　　 It's just that the middle-aged village guard stopped, but the young village guard next to him suddenly drew his sword at Al!
　　 "Outsiders, you get out of McGonagall Village, our village does not welcome you!"
　　 shouted, the young village guard swung his sword and slashed towards Al.
　　 Seeing this, Al under the cloak condensed his eyes, and instantly took a step forward, deceiving himself and crashing into the arms of the young village guard.
　　 Then, his right hand grabbed the young city guard's sword-swinging right wrist.
　　 At the same time, his left hand turned his palm and used a three-point force to hit the young city guard's stomach.
　　 "Oh!"
　　This blow caused the young village guard who was just an ordinary person to spit out a big mouthful of sour water.
　　 The whole person fell straight back.
　　 and the twitching and pain in the stomach caused the young village guard to get out of the Microsoft hand and the cross sword in his hand.
　　 At this moment, Al smoothly took the cross sword in his hand.
　　 Flip his wrist, the old cross sword that was taken from the young village guard leaned on the shoulder of the middle-aged village guard.
　　 At this time, no matter how angry and frightened, the two middle-aged village guards knew that they had encountered the strong.
　　 Looking at the two pale and stiff faces, Al slowly took the cross sword from the middle-aged village guard.
　　 Then he thrust the cross sword into the ground with his backhand, walked past the two people, and directly entered the village of McGonagall.
　　 After major changes in Maige Village, all the villagers are in danger and are quite xenophobic.
　　 But not everyone has become like this. A small group of villagers are still as enthusiastic as before.
　　 Although the degree of enthusiasm has decayed compared to before, it is still a ray of light in today's McGonagall Village.
　　 Under the guidance of an old man, Al came to a tavern on the edge of the village square in Meg Village.
　　Before the great changes in McGonagall Village, this was a place frequented and lingered by merchants who came to buy and sell ale.
　　 However, the number of merchants in today's pubs has been greatly reduced.
　　 There are only two or three big cats and kittens, and some villagers who use alcohol to relieve their sorrows drink alcohol here.
　　 And the lively atmosphere in the original pub has completely disappeared, and the atmosphere has become a bit solemn.
　　 walked into the tavern and came directly to the bar. Al looked at the bartender and said directly: "Are there rooms?"
　　The bartender is a burly man. His low height makes him look like a stump.
　　 He wiped the very clean glass in his hand, nodded and said: "The rooms are the same, five coppers all night.
　　 This is the current price. In the past, at least one silver coin was required a night.
　　 Even when the room is scarce, three silver coins are not too much.
　　 So you are lucky, but there is no dinner included at this price.
　　 If you want to eat, you can come down and tell me, one copper is full and three coppers are good.
　　 Your room is the one at the end of the second floor. Lucky for you, that room has good lighting, so it's cheaper for you. "
　　 While talking, the bartender put a key on the bar, and then went on to wipe the very clean glass.
　　 Seeing the bartender weakly wiping the glass, Al picked up the key from the bar and walked to his room by himself.
　　 I have to say that the bartender did not exaggerate.
　　 The window of the room at the end of the second floor faces the village square in McGonagall Village.
　　 The sun shines directly into the room through the window, making the room warm and comfortable.
　　 As for the bedding in the room, although it is not new, it is very clean and makes people feel uncomfortable.
　　 looked at the room, Al nodded slightly, then put his salute and weapon on the table by the window.
　　 Then, he washed his face and hands with the water in the basin in the house, took off his shoes and clothes and fell asleep.
　　 Tired day and night, Al did not sleep at all, so he slept very fast and very well.
　　 If it weren't for knocking on the door, Al would probably go to sleep until the next morning.
　　 But even so, Al slept from noon to night, and the sky was completely dark.
　　 Hearing the knock on the door, Al got up from the bed and opened the door of the room directly.
　　 The bartender standing outside the door and another middle-aged man with a slightly thin body.
　　 The two of them looked at Al, who was obviously only sixteen or seventeen years old, with a look of surprise on their faces.
　　 Especially the middle-aged man, there was even a slight distrust on his face.
　　 Al raised his eyebrows slightly, regardless of how rich the expressions on their faces were.
　　 Instead, he let the body directly and let the two people outside the door into the house.
　　 Walked into Al's room, the bartender was okay, but the thin middle-aged man looked around.
In the end, Al put his gaze on the cross sword and metal bow that exposed the cloth strips on the table~EbookFREE.me~ Then he turned his head and looked at Al with a slightly flattering smile. .
　　 "This... this gentleman, did you defeat the village guard at the door when you entered the village at noon?"
　　 Hearing this, Al frowned slightly and said, "Why, are you here to let me leave here?"
　　 Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man immediately waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, gentleman, don't get me wrong.
　　 We know very well that the two village guards provoked you, Mr.
　　 And sir, you didn't hurt the two of them, so talk about leaving.
　　 It’s just that I myself have an unsympathetic request, and this is how I got rid of Ahan waiting for me to come to you. "
　　 Ahan is obviously the name of the bartender.
　　 When the middle-aged man said about him, the bartender named Ahan nodded slightly to Al.
　　 nodded to the bartender Ahan, Al looked at the middle-aged man and said, "I don't know what you want me to do?
　　 If I can do it, I can promise you, but I will not do things in vain. "
　　 Hearing Al's getting paid, the middle-aged man nodded with joy.
　　"Here is Jonathan, and he is the owner of a wine shop in McGonagall Village.
　　 I would like to ask your husband to protect my daughter, at least to protect her through the full moon night in a week.
　　 I don’t know if my husband can agree to this, as long as my husband can protect my daughter’s safety.
　　 Then I will pay Mr. ten...no, twenty, thirty gold coins.
　　 I don’t know if you can agree to this matter, sir~EbookFREE.me~ Book friends are welcome to visit and read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all at ~EbookFREE.me~
