Chapter 18. Scouts

The early winter wind contains dry and bitter coolness, which separates the temperature and comfort little by little.

Alice's heart is fiery. She rides on Pudding who has grown a lot, and uses a simple telescope to look as far away as possible.After a period of intensive training, she reached the minimum formation standard and successfully obtained the qualification to go on missions with Tia.

As a well-organized team, the No.14 team must shoulder the responsibilities that match the salary, just like the Lord's previous team.Different teams have different responsibilities at different times.

The team that Tia is in charge of has recently accepted the task of sweeping the wilderness and contacting every subsidiary village that passes by.It can not only capture the clues of the witch, but also routinely inspect the taxation, security and people's livelihood of the village.

"No threat——" Alice observed Shino, checked the nearby business cards through the crown, and gestured for safety.Since she was discovered to have extraordinary powers of observation, the job of being a scout fell naturally on her.

This is the role of specialties. The special attributes and specialties of functional characters in the game can effectively avoid their fate as warehouse managers.Returning to the team happily, feeling the cool breeze of the plain.

"From this side, the nearest village's main supply is medicinal herbs and furs. It is close to the mountains and has a population of hundreds of people. From the other side, the nearest village's main supply is dried fish and lake products. It is close to the freshwater lake. The population has reached a hundred people." Lance read last year's report meticulously.

The team has a full establishment of 126 people. At the beginning, the soldiers were divided once, and Maria took other attendants and 50 people to patrol the other side.Now that the team is half-membered, Alice is glad that she was put on the same team as Tia.

"These two villages were marked as [Safe] last year, and we can divide our troops." Lance suggested that this kind of patrol mission would only increase the combat effectiveness to a limited extent. She definitely hoped to complete it as soon as possible, and then receive a crusade mission with a slightly higher degree of danger. .

"Okay, then Lance, you take half of the people to Lakeside Village." Tia followed suit, and Lance pursed his lips: "Captain, I am a soldier, but I am also your chief attendant, and I cannot be too far away from you in terms of responsibility. "

Alice looked left and right, isn't the remaining team leader just himself who hung up his honor and a recruited elite?Hey, do you want to do this, you plot me, Lance!

Tia shook her head slightly: "Let's not make a distinction. If you really encounter bandits, more than 20 people are not enough." Threats most likely to arise in various territories.

I was almost separated out. The last time I had a good talk with Tia, I can hardly remember when it was. Alice glanced back and forth nervously at Lance and Tia. Is Lance seriously making comments? Or do you want to kick me, the third party, into outer space?

"Alice, do a good job of scouting." "Yes, Vice-captain Lance~" Angrily, he rode on the pudding for a few steps, keeping some distance from the team. The scout's duties really needed to be fulfilled.

It is difficult to judge the time when riding on the plains. After the sun moved an angle, the crown detected the existence of civilians. The business card showed that a man and a woman appeared in front of them.Because the data is too poor, there are no avatars and basic attributes at all, only the gray [civilian] logo.

Alice pulled the reins, made Pudding stop, and took out the binoculars from her pocket to look at the horizon.Sure enough, there were two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, that's right. What made her feel strange was that these two men were standing in what seemed to be a field with agricultural tools, but they were not plowing, but walking around with their heads poking around , as if guarding against something.

Putting away the binoculars, he made a gesture to the back to stop advancing: "It's a bit strange in front, there are two people standing on the ridge of the field doing nothing, I don't know if they are waiting for someone or on guard."

"What kind of person?" Lance rode to the same place and took out the binoculars.

"It looks like a peasant couple, but they look too strange, although it is reasonable to say that they are guarding against bandits." Alice took this opportunity to let Pudding get close to Tia's horse, and the steed named Zhanyi remained motionless, even It won't be suddenly angry or frightened even if it secretly pulls its fur.

"There is no need to hide, let's go directly." Tia made a decision, and everyone continued to move forward, as if they hadn't noticed the two people in advance.

In the wilderness, the sound of horseshoes could not be concealed. When they approached the man dressed as a farmer, the other party had already been working hard in the field. It was said that it was labor, but in fact it was digging the ground.

It wasn't until the knights approached that the peasant man dropped his hoe and rushed over to salute exaggeratedly: "Ah, ah, my lords!" Then the peasant woman also put down her basket and almost bowed down together with her husband.

The clothes on the upper bodies of the two were old and messy, as if they had experienced countless ruthless years. The pants on the lower bodies were not only torn, but also covered with mud spots evenly.But the crown has no sympathy. The light screen in front of Alice can not only mark the usage of the item, but also mark the approximate market price. Coincidentally, the neck and wrist of the woman on the left have been seen through. Underneath the suit was a piece of valuable jewelry.

"Adults have come from afar. I'll go back to the village and report to the village chief. I will definitely provide you with meals! It's just..." The man who was crooked on the ground rubbed his hands: "There are not so many houses in the village, and there are not many houses in the village. There is no way to accommodate so many horses. I remember that the year before last, my lord only brought a dozen or so people..."

"Stand up, there is no need to salute like this. We are here to patrol for bandits." Tia's gentle voice was interrupted eagerly by the woman. "No, no, absolutely not! You don't need to bother the adults!"

Alice leaned her head against Pudding's long mane, and almost laughed out loud. After coming to another world for so long, I finally saw someone whose IQ and acting skills were completely below mine!

"It's fine if you don't have one, but there are still things that need to be checked in terms of taxation. Let me choose a few people to enter the village together, and the rest will camp around the village." Tia gave an order, and ordered two soldiers to take the pair The married couple mounted their horses and followed the road signs to the village.

I walked around the farmland and didn't step on it. I saw more people in a short time. The fields in this village are very irregular. The branches are in every corner of the village. It's already winter, and in half a month it will be the Winter Festival. I can't see anyone Busy in the fields, I can't see how the village is doing well. Some fields are covered with weeds, but most of them are overturned.

In stark contrast to the scattered fields, there is an abnormally strong fence at the entrance of the village. The neat and high-quality wood is spliced ​​together, and it is reinforced with metal nails and iron rings. The height is as high as one and a half people.For a small village, it's overreacting.

"Are these newly built?" Lance asked seemingly casually. She had read the report book, and there was no record of a strong protective fence in the outline of the village's facilities.

"Yes, my lord, be prepared, be prepared." The man rolled off the horse that led him, and his wife was put down by a certain knight: "The furs and herbs in our village are all the best, and they cannot be robbed by bandits." Now that I’m gone, I still have to dedicate it to the lord.”

The knights got off their horses one after another, Tia ordered Lance, Alice and a few people who were close to him asked the others to camp outside the village first.

The couple greeted the knights into the village with friendly smiles. Before they had walked a few steps, the village chief hurriedly brought a few well-dressed people to welcome them. Among countless compliments, they greeted Tia and The subordinate knights brought them to the village chief's house and brought various "special products". After a while, the table was full of packed herbs, tanned furs, and all kinds of "specialties" on the ground. There are all kinds of earthen jars that can't be explained clearly.

The village head’s house looks neat and simple, with portraits of a family of five hanging on it. There is a distinction between bedroom and living room. The wooden door is ajar and you can see the internal bed. The living room is complete with wooden tables, chairs and cabinets. Not good and not bad.

Alice turned her back to the village chief and rolled her eyes secretly. The crown clearly showed that there was a secret door under the carpet they were stepping on. Unfortunately, there was no way to check the internal items through the metal products.

The accounts are very simple. After all, we only look at the total income to calculate the tax. The tax that this village can pay this year has increased compared with previous years. It should not be a big problem. Even if there are some concealments, it will not be too much compared to previous years.

The next step is to check the warehouses in the village to check the storage of grain and goods. After Lance took the keys and checked them one by one, he still found nothing unusual.

The knights dispersed to check the population changes in the village, and communicated with the villagers to understand various situations.Alice walked around during this process, just like the brave man who kept pressing the space bar to search for various items in the game, and she really found some clues and obvious problems.

First of all, there are at least three places where there are institutions in this village: the village head's house, under the tree next to the warehouse, and near the wellhead.

Secondly, many people in the village have low-level combat occupations. The population book only shows their name, gender, age, occupation, and family relationship. If some young and middle-aged people are replaced, it will not be obvious at all.

Finally, there is a bag of white powder with anesthetic effect in the wheat flour bag in the kitchen. The cook is rushing to cook a delicious meal, but the flour for making white bread and fried meatballs are not used in this bag. , is some kind of homemade drink set aside.

Hey, don't you want to be so bold, how far can you run out alive if we are paralyzed?Ms. Aretha is a half dragon.If it wasn't for Guan Guan's reminder that this powder is extremely powerful and effective for professionals, I'm afraid they would have laughed at their overreaching on the spot.

Such a small village, where did you get these things, and dare to ambush us?Thinking of this, Alice pretended to take a walk, and returned to Tia who had just asked about the situation in the village.

"Sister Tia, I just saw a cat at the entrance of the village! Let's go and see it together." Heh heh, with this level of childish dialogue, titles and weird cute moves, Tia will definitely know that I have something important to say!

"Okay." I was patted on the head, wait, Tia, you know I have something to say, right?Hey, don't get me wrong-

The author has something to say:

Good Thursday, seeing the little angel here, let me tell you a joke to make you happy: I was very anxious when I saw the first point 60 yesterday, what should I do, of course, let the big sister on the same channel help me push the chapter!So I went to the post bar and asked for a big help to push the chapter. Sure enough, a "big" added me. After asking about my article, I said that for the sake of your hard work and originality, I will push it for you first after paying a deposit. : Okay, okay (wechat payment of 100 yuan as a deposit)—and of course it’s a joy to hear and see QWQ

The sentence "You are stupid" that the liar said when he received the money is really very spiritual

So silly, how can the author comfort his wounded heart, of course - three o'clock tomorrow!Yes, I don't do three shifts on weekends, I do three shifts on Fridays, because I'm stupid

As long as I update fast enough, the sadness of being cheated will not catch up with me
