The Bald Monk in the City

Chapter 207: Mezzanine

Yi Qiu chatted with the two guards at the post tower for a while, then walked in along the entrance of the Western Valley.

   Yi Qiu turned around and took a look. The light of the sentry tower had disappeared under the high cliffs of the valley.

  According to the older sentinel, in the wilderness outside, there are a large number of beasts with violent blood.

   Compared with ordinary beasts, they are more ferocious and very aggressive.

   Yi Qiu thought for a while, he suspected that those who followed it before were probably monsters such as violent rats.

   No one knows how many violent beasts exist in the vast wilderness.

  According to the Kingdom’s scholars, if all these violent beasts flooded into the Kingdom.

   So for the kingdom, it is undoubtedly an epic disaster that can be overthrown.

   The rulers of the kingdom at that time listened to the advice of scholars, negotiated with many churches, and finally spent a lot of money to build a series of watch towers in the fringe areas of the kingdom.

  There are specific magic attached to the watch tower, which can expel the entry of beasts.

   At least two guards have been sent to guard the tower and are responsible for the daily operation and maintenance of the tower.

   Until now, the violent beast disaster predicted by scholars has not occurred.

   This also made the kingdom complain about the decision of the ruler that year, because the establishment of the sentry tower cost a lot of money, which led to a stalemate in the subsequent war with the enemy country due to funding problems.

   The old sentry seemed a little worried. He has been guarding this tower for almost 20 years.

  If the ruler of the current kingdom decides to cancel or reduce the number of guard towers, he will undoubtedly be in a very bad situation.

  Yi Qiu suspected that there was some kind of large branch in that area, and the expression of "I have a story, do you have any wine" on the older sentry among the two guards of the tower also increased Yi Qiu's suspicion.

   But based on his charm, after chatting for a while, Yi Qiu didn't get any hint about the task.

   It is possible that the paladin will trigger related side quests, but for Yi Qiu, it is obviously not very reliable.

   However, Yi Qiu does not have much interest in making a branch line, unless that branch line can provide enough rewards to make Yi Qiu heart.

  Because generally speaking, the rewards of the tasks are not as good as those dropped by the bosses of the same level. After all, there is no middleman to make the difference between the boss drops...

   Touched his bald head, Yi Qiu opened the map and looked at it.

   At this time, the night was already very dark, because the phone could not be turned on due to subtle changes in certain substances. Yi Qiu could only make a vague calculation based on the countdown of the temporary raid.

   It should be almost 2 to 3 in the morning. Yi Qiu raised his head and looked at the sky. Except for a full moon, the stars were dim.

   Fortunately, Yuanyue has got rid of the entanglement of the dark clouds at this time, and Yi Qiu's vision has become clearer.

   It may be that the previous flight stimulated Yi Qiu's nerves, or perhaps the long-term meditation practice has improved Yi Qiu's energy. For some reason, Yi Qiu has not felt too tired now.

   Yi Qiu was going to go to the place where the mercenary left the sheepskin scroll he got in the treasure chest of the goblin leader to take a look. It happened that it was not very far away from where Yi Qiu was now.

   In the cold night breeze in the early morning, Yi Qiu moved quickly.

  …………

  …………

   After disturbing the nightlife of the three goblins, and then being chased by the angry goblins for a certain distance, Yi Qiu found the place recorded on the sheepskin scroll.

   There is a dead tree here, and a part of its torso was chopped down. It may be that some mercenaries passing by took some to light a bonfire.

  In the valley, there are some scattered trees of this kind.

Although    is not common, it is not rare.

   may be due to long-term sun and rain, or it may be due to the material of the tree itself. Although this kind of dead tree burns easily, it produces a very pungent smoke.

  Most of the time, if there is no hay or the like nearby, the mercenaries will use some for combustion.

   Yi Qiu searched the neighborhood, but there was no unusual clue.

   There is no savage monster that Yi Qiu expected, or the terrain full of murderous intent, nothing is empty...

   It seems that this place is no different from other areas in the valley, it looks very ordinary.

   After thinking about it, Yi Qiu took out the sheepskin roll and looked at it, and then compared it with the map.

   There should be no problem with the address, and Yi Qiu did not find the wrong place.

   looked around, and finally Yi Qiu focused his attention on the dead tree, which was the only thing that was slightly different nearby.

   Relying on intuition, Yi Qiu judged that there was a problem with the tree.

   didn't look for any hidden information on the dead tree, Yi Qiu decided to break the dead tree open.

   Anyway, it's just an unexpected gain. It's best to have a harvest, even if it doesn't. Yi Qiu doesn't plan to pay more for this.

   Yi Qiu pulled Shi E from his waist, and then transformed it into a heavy stick, facing the remaining tree body!

"bump!"

   While the pieces of wood flew horizontally, an iron box that didn't know how to put it in appeared in Yi Qiu's field of vision.

   There was a lock on the iron box, but it is now rusty, and Yi Qiu took the lock off without any effort.

   Then, Yi Qiu stepped back, preparing to push away the iron box with Shi E.

   Although he thinks that a mercenary is unlikely to cast any magic traps on the box, after all, there are also two books in the Druid’s hut that have been imposed magic traps.

   But in order to prevent the ship from capsize in the gutter, Yi Qiu thinks it is better to be on the safe side.

   "Crack!"

   Just after Yi Qiu used Shi E to push open the iron box, there was a dazzling silver light.

   The slight triggering sound of the machine spring suddenly came from the iron box, and then a crossbow arrow was shot out in the silver light with a sharp wind sound!

   "Boom!"

   Because Yi Qiu retreated, the crossbow arrow shot on the mountain wall behind Yi Qiu after flying a certain distance.

   Then, after a dull penetrating sound~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Most of the arrows of the crossbow arrow fell into the mountain wall!

   Yi Qiu touched his bald head, used Shi E to fiddle with the box again, there was no other movement.

  Under the faint moonlight, the opened iron box emits a dazzling silver light.

   Yi Qiu took a closer look, and this iron box was almost full of Kingdom coins!

   Because of the protection of the iron box, these kingdom coins look very new.

   In the middle of the iron box, there is a modified crossbow. It seems that the arrow was shot by this crossbow.

  Because of the large number, Yi Qiu has not counted the Kingdom Coins for the time being.

   He temporarily put the Kingdom Coins into his backpack, and the iron box suddenly appeared empty.

   Yi Qiu tried to pull the iron box out of the dead tree, without pulling it, as if the iron box was firmly fixed inside with some special craft.

   Although Yi Qiu cannot observe the size of the iron box too intuitively, from the current point of view, Yi Qiu feels that the space he sees is smaller than the specific size of the iron box, which means that the iron box should have an interlayer.

   But after Yi Qiu tapped all the areas, there was no empty echo.

   Obviously, Yi Qiu's clumsy tactics and the experience gained from certain film and television works alone are not enough for Yi Qiu to discover the hidden interlayer.

   After thinking about it, Yi Qiu decided to use Shi E to break it directly.

  According to Yi Qiu's idea, if it is a precious magic item, it will not necessarily be broken under the blow of Shi'e.

   If not, then obviously there is no use for Yi Qiu.

   So Yi Qiu lifted Shi E and slammed it down towards the iron box!
