Rachimon's Unease: He Wasn't an Adventurer

Carne Village's village entrance.

The wooden fence that does not play much defensive role still surrounds it, and there is no change from the last time I came here.

The reappearance of Tang Zheng aroused the attention of everyone in the village, especially the eldest daughter of Aemert's family who helped carry weeds.

For the women in the village who didn't have many interesting things to do, it was simply a huge piece of gossip.

On the aisle.

Three figures walked towards the depths of the village.

"I'm going to trouble you again this time, village chief." Tang Zheng said politely to the village chief on the side.

"You don't have to be so polite, Your Excellency."

"The room Clean came out a long time ago. It's still the same room you stayed in last time."

The dark-skinned village chief spoke quickly. Although he was a little surprised at Tang Zheng's return, he didn't have any impatience, and there was even a hint of respect in his tone.

The room has already passed Clean?

Hearing these words from the village chief, Tang Zheng paused imperceptibly, and then continued to move forward.

At the same time, out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at a middle-aged man following the village chief.

The opponent was carrying a bow and arrow behind his back, and his right hand swayed normally with his steps, while his left hand, with his back facing the direction of Tang Zheng, was always pressed against his waist.

Tang Zheng could clearly feel that the other party was a little nervous, and from time to time he looked at Lesser Barghest who was following him.

Do you know Barghest?

If he remembered correctly, the only villager with a profession among Carne Village was named Rachimon. Judging from the bow and arrows carried behind his back, he should be this middle-aged man.

Tang Zheng Several thoughts flashed through his mind. He changed his tone and asked the village chief curiously, "Has anyone else been to the village recently?"

It is obviously impossible for the village chief to know that he will return to Carne Village again. Since he cleans the room without knowing it, it is because someone else has visited the village.

"Yeah."

The village chief nodded, "There have been several adventurer teams recently. They all stayed in the village for one night and then left in a hurry."

"Do you know what they are here for?"

Tang Zheng's eyes flashed and he already had some guesses.

"Adventurers are all big shots, and we are not the ones who can ask. And we don't know anything." The wrinkles on the village chief's face rose, he smiled heartily, and waved his hand.

Tang Zheng Hearing this, he glanced at the village chief in surprise.

Very smart answer.

This may also be the way for civilians to survive.

Although there is no useful information, it is not difficult to speculate.

In a border village like Carne Village, which has few outsiders all year round, several groups of adventurers suddenly appeared. It is most likely related to his behavior in the forest during this period.

It's still the same room as last time.

Tang Zheng walked into the door and saw that the whole room was Clean very clean, even the spider webs on the beams above the head had disappeared.

"Ouch."

Lesser Barghest is very active in observing the surrounding environment.

"Don't scream when there are outsiders in the future." Tang Zheng looked at Lesser Barghest and said calmly.

"Woo."

Lesser Barghest made lively movements, shrank his neck, and drooped his ears.

Most monsters' Wisdom is not too low. This Lesser Barghest, after being exposed to it during this period of time, is more intelligent than Tang Zheng expected.

As long as it's not complicated, this Barghest can completely understand it.

Tang Zheng stretched out his hand and grabbed it, and took out the body of Goblin, throwing it to Lesser Barghest.

"Today's dinner."

the other side.

After taking Tang Zheng to the house, the village chief and Rachimon walked back on the bumpy dirt road in the village.

"Did something happen in the forest recently?" The cheerful smile on the village chief's face had disappeared, and his face was full of worry.

After a while, I found no response.

"What's going on today? You talk so little." The village chief looked at Rachimon beside him in confusion.

"It's Barghest!"

Rachimon's tone was trembling.

"What?" The village chief looked confused and didn't understand what Rachimon was talking about for a moment.

"The monster following the opponent is Barghest." Rachimon raised his head and looked at the village chief, his expression a little pale.

"It is a monster more terrifying than Troll. In the adventurer difficulty rating, it is a terrifying existence with a value of 45."

"That one is obviously a cub. A cunning monster like Barghest will definitely stay by its side."

Rachimon took a deep breath and spoke seriously.

"Difficulty?" The village chief was still a little confused.

The so-called "difficulty" is the value used by the Adventurer's Guild to evaluate the strength of monsters. For example, the difficulty value for an adult male is three.

As a hunter in the village, Rachimon usually only picks herbs and hunts ordinary beasts outside Great Forest of Tob.

It is also necessary to bring the excess wheat and other crops in the village to "E-Rantel" for sale, in exchange for and purchase of some basic materials.

Therefore, he knows more about some adventurers than the people in the village.

"Village Chief, the other party is not an adventurer either."

Rachimon lowered his voice and glanced vaguely in the direction of the house where Tang Zheng lived.

"No matter what level of adventurer he is, he will carry a metal plate made according to his level in a conspicuous place on his body."

The pure black hair color, the obvious foreign features, and the Barghest cub following him made Rachimon nervous.

No matter how you look at him, he feels like a dangerous person.

Ta-ta~

The sound of Lightness footsteps sounded.

Just as he was about to continue speaking Rachimon, he closed his mouth, raised his head, and looked with the village chief in the direction of the sound.

Only seen.

Enri was walking towards their direction carrying a wooden tray.

When the village chief saw this scene, a kind smile appeared on his face, "Where are you going, little Enri."

"Village Chief, Uncle Rachimon."

Enri saw the two people in front of him and spoke quickly, then there was some shyness on his cheeks:

"My mother asked me to give the adventurer some food as a thank you for moving the weeds."

Rachimon glanced at the tray in Enri's hand. There was a steaming bean soup with diced meat clearly visible in it, as well as a plate of washed nuts.

"Aemert When did that guy become so generous?" Rachimon whistled half-jokingly.

"Okay. Enri, you go over first."

The villager waved his hand gently.

Enri nodded respectfully to the two people and left in a hurry.

"Village chief..." Rachimon saw Enri leaving and then spoke again.

This time, the village chief waved his hand, interrupted Rachimon's words, and said softly, "Relax, Rachimon, this is the second time that the other party has come to our village."

Rachimon was silent and thought for a moment, "Would you like to go to "E-Rantel"? I feel like there is something going on in the forest that we don't know about."

The village chief did not speak this time, but turned sideways to look in the direction where Enri disappeared, and continued walking forward in silence.
