When Darko went up the mountain to investigate, he did not attract the attention of the townspeople, but after the quarry collapsed, he participated in the follow-up rescue and escort operations. These townspeople all saw it, and Darko was born locally Professionals have a certain prestige before, and it is reasonable to be elected as acting sheriff.

For the next time, whether to go to the quarry or not, and whether to repair the fence, will all be decided by Darko.

Amy and Sirin watched from a distance, as if they were watching something exciting.

The two of them decided to stay in the town for two more days, one is to wait for Helen to come over to deal with the follow-up situation, and then go to Golden Rose City together; the other is to see if they can wait until Palouse.

Palouse should be able to receive news of the changes in Sweetwater Town and Usma soon, and it is very likely that he will secretly come to check the situation, or send someone to investigate, and if he seizes the opportunity, he may catch this big fish !

--------

ps: I have some things to deal with in the past few days. For the time being, I will update them every day~We will return to double updates on weekends~~

Then ask for tickets~~

(Hungry, hungry, give some~)

Song of the Traveler: Chapter 9 Encounter

That night, Amy and Sirin stayed in a hotel in Sweetwater Town.

Sirin originally thought that Amy would just find a secluded place, and then go to rest in the room of the dead, but Amy said that she wanted to experience the hotel outside, and wanted to compare the difference with her own room.

This is of course an excuse. She said harsh words yesterday and would not let Xilin enter the room to sleep tonight, but she felt uncomfortable without someone to accompany her, so she took a detour and chose to spend the night in a hotel.

In the end, she still didn't sleep well after accepting the bed, and even Xilin also suffered.

For the next two days, the two wandered around Sweetwater Town, trying to find clues about Palouse, but found nothing.

Until the morning of the third day, when the two were wandering in the street, they happened to run into an acquaintance.

Liv, a female swordsman with short black hair, is Helen's personal bodyguard. She scanned the surroundings as she walked, as if she was looking for someone. After seeing Amy and Sirin, her eyes lit up, she trotted forward, bowed and saluted, saying :

"Misses, Miss Helen has arrived in Sweetwater Town and is currently in the sheriff's mansion. She has learned that the two of you are also here. Please meet me in the past."

Amy and Sirin changed their route and went to Usma's small manor.

A carriage with a golden rose emblem was parked outside the small manor. Helen stood beside the carriage, followed by two guards dressed in black.

Seeing Amy and Sirin approaching, Helen smiled and performed a simple skirt ceremony, "Miss Amy, Miss Sirin, long time no see."

"Long time no see." Amy waved her hand casually, while Sirin nodded.

"I have received the news from you two, but it took some time to rush over." Helen said apologetically, "There are also some things to deal with at home."

Amy didn't care, she lowered her voice slightly, "Find a quiet place, we have something to tell you."

"Then how about going here? It has already been cleaned up." Helen pointed to Usma's manor, "To be honest, this is more luxurious than my private mansion in Golden Rose City. My father and I both have an inescapable responsibility to live in such a manor."

Amy shrugged, noncommittal.

Helen raised her arms, and the two black-clothed guards beside her took the initiative to push open the gate of the manor and stood guard at the gate, while Liv switched positions, came to Helen's side, and entered the house together.

Judgment of intimacy.

Amy and Sirin also entered the house and sat down in the living room on the first floor.

The Moon Elf keenly noticed that the door leading to the collection room had been destroyed, and the empty door frame must have unfortunately lost the treasures inside.

Liv started to make black tea. In addition to being a bodyguard, she also worked as a maid.

"I brought the tea bags and tea sets from home, so you don't have to worry about the materials and quality." Helen said, "You two can enjoy them with confidence."

After a pause for a few seconds, she continued: "I heard from Deputy Sheriff Darko that the problem on Stone Forest Mountain was solved by the two of them. Is there any secret in this?"

This sentence is just an introduction, the event that can make the forest witch take action is definitely not simple, Helen understands this truth.

Amy cleared her throat and talked about the connection between Usma and the mysterious mage Palous, and also mentioned that Palouse's goal is the leylines flowing through here, but the scene of the leyline goblins was omitted.

The petrification disease and the accident in the quarry were also interpreted as the disturbance of the power of the earth veins, which was caused by the spillover.

After hearing this, Helen fell into deep thought, before opening her mouth for a while: "I will ask someone to help investigate Palouse's identity. Since he has been to the Golden Rose Territory, we will definitely be able to find traces of his actions. As for the accident on Stone Forest Mountain, we will temporarily block it." Shan Dao, invite naturalists to conduct a detailed inspection to determine the changes in the power of the leylines."

Helen took a sip of tea, moistened her throat, and continued: "Building a wall in Tianshui Town to resist the beast horde is purely superfluous. In the name of my father, I will stop this useless project. Those stones can just be used for repairs." The channel of the Tianshui River, and the bridge piers are reinforced by the way. The cost of moving stones and workmanship is generously provided by the former sheriff Usma, and the follow-up project coordination is handed over to the current sheriff Darko.”

"The sheriff in Misty Town just happened to have a vacancy. You can let Lunford take over and take over the position of mayor of Misty Town. The old mayor of Marco transferred to Sweetwater Town. He has many years of management experience. The Misty Town has been managed very well, and it can also play its role here.”

There is a reason for Rumford's promotion. His performance on the night of the beast tide established the prestige of the captain of the militia, and he also met Amy. In addition, Princess Selina mentioned this matter when she left the Golden Rose Territory. There are several reasons. Adding it all together, it is reasonable to be promoted to the post of magistrate, but it is Helen's selfish desire to take over the position of acting mayor. The two brothers are fighting each other, so it is better to let her take over.

Markor's transfer is naturally also because of Helen. The old mayor is very cooperative with Helen's actions. He stood in line quickly and showed loyalty. He was transferred to Tianshui Town to retire. .

Having said these words, Amy only felt that Helen's arrangement was clear and organized, and she was worthy of being the smart daughter of the lord's family.

Xilin found out another meaning, and asked curiously, "Your father gave you so much power when you went out this time?"

The transfer of officials in the territory is the power of the lord, and Helen can't do it with a word, it needs to have relevant tokens.

There was no one else in the room, Helen smiled lightly, and said: "To tell you the truth, my father has recovered from his injuries. There have been a lot of turmoil during this period, so it's time to rest."

Sirin suddenly realized that it was the lord who was going to close the net, no wonder Helen dared to do this.

"Things have been arranged, and it doesn't make much sense for us to stay in Tianshui Town." Helen looked at the two witches, with a playful smile on her face, and sent out an invitation, "It just so happens that there should be a good show in Golden Rose City recently. Don't come and see with me?"

"I'm fine." Amy became interested, "But my identity needs some cover."

She was petite, sitting on the thickened luxurious chair in the living room, her feet couldn't reach the ground, and she kicked uncomfortably.

This scene caught Helen's eyes, and the corners of her mouth curled up in joy, "Don't worry, I will help you two arrange your identities. Do you have professional badges?"

Amy shook her head, Sirin hesitated and shook her head too.

Her own professional badge is at the legendary level, and she also has a title, but she doesn't have the strength of a legendary level at the moment.

After 300 years, the title of Lingfeng Dance may not still belong to her.

"Then, you guys go to Golden Rose City together in my carriage, and I'll arrange a strength test and help you get a badge." Helen said directly, "The matter of status is also easy to handle, I have studied at the Imperial Magic Academy, Amy Miss can be my classmate, and Miss Sirin is Miss Amy's bodyguard, how about it?"

In this day and age, serious magicians will basically hire a few combat-type professionals as guards, and this arrangement is reasonable.

Amy nodded, "Then I'll leave it to you."

Helen's carriage left Tianshui Town that afternoon and went straight to Golden Rose City along the official road.

The interior decoration of this luxury carriage is luxurious and elegant, and the external shock absorption measures are also excellent. People with motion sickness like Amy feel very comfortable, and even want to get a car for fun when they move.

But thinking that she would not hire other people as drivers when she was traveling with Sirin, Amy gave up this idea.

The official road of Jin Qiangwei is very good, and the journey is quite smooth.At night, the carriage drove into a rest area specially prepared for nearby business travelers.

This rest area is also a shed, unguarded, but a stove and firewood are placed, and there is a well behind the shed.

When business travelers are on their way, if the journey is inconvenient, they can stop here to rest.There are sheds to keep out the wind and rain, a stove to light a fire for cooking, and a clean water source to replenish drinking water. Although the facilities are simple, they are very convenient for pedestrians.

"This kind of shed is built and maintained by the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce." Helen introduced, "They will build this kind of temporary rest area in the area where the Chamber of Commerce passes. In this kind of place where there is no village and no shop, the land price is not worth it. The lords usually don't refuse their requests."

Collect tax money every year, but also get thanks from business travelers, why not do it?Even if refugees and bandits took things from the rest area, the chamber of commerce would send people to replenish them regularly.

What's more, the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce has been in operation for many years, and it is already an extremely powerful force, and ordinary robbers dare not touch their things.

Amy was no stranger to this kind of facility, and secretly lamented the brilliance of the top management of the chamber of commerce.

This hut seems to be a loss-making business, which takes a lot of effort, but it is actually a super advertisement with a very high conversion rate, which makes the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce's name even better, and also wins over those individual traveling merchants, increasing the purchase and sales of the Chamber of Commerce. channels, expanding the radiation range of the chamber of commerce.

There is a forest behind the hut, and it is convenient to collect firewood. Several people sat down by the fire, and Liv began to prepare today's dinner.

Creamy vegetable soup, white bread, fried meat with carrots, and a kind of fried food similar to small dried fish are not particularly rich, but it is still quite touching for Sirin to be able to eat such exquisite food during the trip.

Amy was very helpless. She took a bite of the fried meat, and gave the rest to Sirin. She ate two pieces of dried fish, and the taste was good, but it didn’t take long before she started to feel sick, and her body also felt a sense of rejection. In order not to spoil the dining atmosphere, she forcibly suppressed it.

It seems that like meat, her body is not able to accept river seafood.

The creamy vegetable soup was too sweet and greasy for Amy, and she couldn't eat more. In the end, she could only take out homemade jam and eat a few more bites of white bread.

After dinner, Liv began to pack and wash the tableware, and two guards stood guard outside the shed.

Helen apologized to Amy in a low voice: "I'm sorry, Miss Amy, Liv didn't consider your taste when preparing dinner."

She is a smart person, and she noticed Amy's discomfort during the meal, but Amy chose to hide it, so she cooperated with the situation and apologized in the spare time after the meal.

Ami waved her hand and said, "It's nothing, it's just a matter of race. I just can't accept meaty food. In fact, I don't have high requirements for what I eat."

She was considered a half-time gourmet before time travelling. After all, food is the only thing she can live up to in life, and she even learned how to cook. But after time travelling, she had to lower her standards.

The elf's body is too difficult to take care of, and she can't eat many things, which really makes her unhappy.

Day four away from Poppy, thinking about it.

If there is a big dog, you can easily find delicious fruit, and you won't be eating bread here.

"I seem to have read in a book that it is difficult for elves to adapt to the taste of meat." Helen said, "I was negligent."

Amy puffed her cheeks, but said nothing.

Helen thought for a while, and said: "There is a restaurant in Golden Rose City, and the cook there can make very delicious vegetable soup. After entering the city tomorrow, I will take Miss Amy to experience it, as an apology for today's dinner .”

Amy glanced at Sirin, Miss Swordsman fiddled with the fire, and said softly: "Then go and have a look, maybe there will be surprises."

The three chatted softly, and after a while, Liv returned to Helen after cleaning the tableware.

Helen suggested: "The seats in the carriage can be opened and made into a bed. Let's sleep together tonight, so as not to have to pitch a tent again."

Li Fu looked at her own lady, hesitated to speak.

Others don't know, but she knows Helen's thoughts.

After all, my young lady is a person who likes to make friends with beautiful girls, but her vision is very high, and ordinary people can't catch her sight.

But Amy is different from Sirin, these two are top-notch beauties, if they dress up carefully, they are even prettier than Miss Helen.

To Liv's relief, Amy flatly declined Helen's invitation.

"No, we have a place to rest."

Helen didn't force her, and said, "Then Liv and I will go back to the car first. It's getting late, you two should have a good rest, tomorrow may be very busy."

Amy waved her hand, and she whispered in Sirin's ear, asking Miss Swordsman to set up the tent, and they went inside to open the Book of the Dead.

As soon as the Book of the Dead was brought out, there was a lot of momentum. The golden lacquer cover, ghost faces and blood chains were so obvious that if Helen saw it, she might associate it indiscriminately.

Sirin was about to leave when her ears moved slightly.

In the next second, Amy also heard a slight sound.

In the dense forest behind the shed there was the rustling of blades of grass, and then a very low cry for help.

"Anyone? Can you help me?"

The person who called for help was a woman, who was more than 500 meters away from here.

Amy quickly made a judgment. She and Sirin exchanged glances. Sirin pressed the hilt of her sword, "Go and have a look. This place is not far from the lord's city. It shouldn't be a bandit trap."

"You two, who are you?" Helen was a little puzzled.

Liv reacted first, drew her sword to protect Helen, and glanced around.

"Don't be too nervous, someone is calling for help, we're going to check it out," Sirin said.

Helen frowned slightly, and said to the two black-clothed guards: "You two look at the carriage, Liv and I will leave."

The four of them walked into the woods, looking at the green plants in their eyes, Amy felt a familiar feeling of coming home.

She shook her ears covered by the hat, and the cry for help became clearer, and she lit a firelight at her fingertips to follow the sound.

Not long after, the four saw a person calling for help in a sunken pothole.

It was a rather young woman, holding an oil lamp in one hand and holding on to the wall of the pit with the other, calling for help.

"Anyone? Can you help me?"

Against the backdrop of the light, one can see that she has long silver-white hair, tied into a braid and hanging on her side, her face is a bit mature, she is about thirty years old, she has the appearance of a gentle big sister.

She wears thin-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose, and there is some dust on her forehead. She is wearing a loose dress with a cloth bag on her back.

What amazed Amy the most was her plump and plump mountain range. Even the loose dress was propped up in a dangerous arc. The scale was even better than that of Sirin, and it was the highest mountain range that Amy had ever seen with her own eyes.

When Amy inspected the caller, Helen also came over. After seeing the person at the bottom of the pit, Helen showed a helpless smile: "Miss Miloko, why did you come here?"

The glasses girl at the bottom of the pit smiled, with a look of foolishness on her gentle face, and she said happily, "It's Little Helen, I heard from others that there are wonderful wild mushrooms in this forest, so I came here to pick them." !"

She scratched her hair embarrassingly, and the dust in her hands stained her hair, "I forgot the time when I picked it up, and when I realized it, it was already dark, and I was anxious to leave the woods, and accidentally fell into the pit Li... Fortunately, you are here, and now you are saved!"

"You-"

Helen patted her forehead and said to Liv: "Save Miss Miroco."

"Hmm! Thank you, little Liv, today's wild mushrooms are really good, and I'll invite you to drink wild mushroom and vegetable soup tomorrow~" Mi Luoke smiled and squinted her eyes.
