"Huh~~ It seems that tonight is another rare moon night..."

Night watchman Joey tightened his neckline and shook his head helplessly as he looked at the half-moon that appeared in the sky from time to time.

Beside him was Thompson, who was also a night watchman.

This rotten drunkard never leaves his body even when he works at night.

"Hi Joey, have you heard? Hiccup ~ Some people claim... Pumpkin field at night... Hiccup ~ Seeing a pumpkin ghost haunt ~"

The drunken Thompson threw up his head and took another sip of wine.

Joey looked disgusted and fanned the other party's exhaled wine with his hand.

"What pumpkin ghost? It's all childish tricks to scare children into going to bed early! ”

"Hiccup~ That's not a childish trick.... I'm telling you, I've seen the pumpkin ghost with my own eyes..."

Thompson pressed his face to it, squinted and whispered, "They have human bodies... A head carved from a pumpkin! Reputedly... They were knights who were beheaded for their defeat.... Because I don't have a head, I use a pumpkin instead..."

Thompson said it well, and Joey impatiently stretched out his finger and said, "Is it like that guy over there?" ”

Thompson looked in the direction of his companion's finger, but his expression suddenly froze on his face.

"Hell... Ghost... Hell! Ahhh ”

After a pause, Thompson threw away the flask, turned around with both hands and ran!

Joey didn't stop him, but walked over with an oil lamp.

"Hello? Whose bear child is it? What are you hanging around here at such a late hour!? Hurry up and get home! ”

Joey doesn't believe in pumpkin ghosts, he prefers that it's a children's prank.

"Talk about you! Do you hear that? Don't play tricks here! ”

Seeing that the other party completely ignored him and continued to wander around the fields as he did his own thing, Joey suddenly felt a little annoyed.

He walked over and tugged on the other person's shoulder, but he didn't expect the pumpkin head to roll to the ground with a "gurgling".

And that was supposed to be the place of the head.... But it's empty!

"Ah~~~~~~h

In the tavern, the storyteller screamed violently, startling the audience around him.

"Hahahaha~ Look at your expressions! I won! Five copper coins! ”

The people who listened to the story scolded and took out copper coins and threw them on the table, but looking at their palpitating faces, they were still very sure of the story just now.

"Pumpkin Head Ghost... Is it true? ”

Someone in the crowd asked.

The big guys looked at each other, and the man who told the story lowered his head mysteriously and said, "I don't dare to say anything about ghosts, but I have a friend who has seen it before... There are dead people who have crawled out of the ground! ”

"Hiss~~~"

His theory succeeded in making everyone take a breath of fresh air.

At this time, a person next to him interjected: "I heard from my merchant cousin that there really is a Headless Horseman who replaces his head with a pumpkin!" And... It also cuts off the head of the person who accosted it! ”

"Don't say it so really, can you? I'm going home! Really! ”

There was a timid man who had already ended his nightlife early, and he was clearly reluctant to walk alone at night.

Klose and his party sat at a round table in the corner, listening to the idlers chatting and fart.

It was their first day in Pumpkintown, but it was definitely a good idea to go to the tavern for local news.

"Hey, did you hear that? Pumpkin Ghost ~ Headless Horseman ~ Hehehe~ That person is better than me to make up! ”

Falke took a glass of ale and drank it without a sip.

The others were the same, who, after drinking the beer Klose had brought out, found the ale in the tavern as hard to swallow as the bath water at their aunt's house.

"Nonsense?"

Klose doesn't think it's a bunch.... Because just as they entered Pumpkin Town, Klose saw a man with a head like a pumpkin wandering through the grove at the edge of the field.

But until he finds out the truth of the matter, he won't say it to make everyone worry about it.

Although the population of this pumpkin town is small, it still occupies a large area.

Every household seems to have arable land, and most of the people here like to grow pumpkins.

A few people sat in the tavern and listened to the small talk of the people next to them for a while, but there was no useful information.

Klose stretched, looked at Fack and asked, "Okay, that's it for today~ Where is our room?" ”

Falke stared at Klose with an ale, and then replied, "I thought you had already booked a room." ”

"Me?" Klose wondered, "Why me?" You're the leader of our squad. ”

Falk scratched his head, and suddenly pushed Ward next to him: "Hey big guy, have you booked a room?" ”

The lizardman looked back at him with a confused expression, a completely unconditioned expression.

Falke shook his head and asked Jadeite: "Hey~ Jadeite, have you booked a room?" ”

"Me? Kindness.... Didn't Selmen ask you to book a room? Did you order it? ”

This little girl is good, and directly kicked the ball to a blind and deaf disabled person....

"I just like to hide my eyes! That way, no one else can see through my inner thoughts through my eyes! I'm not disabled! ”

Salomon yelled into the air, and everyone watching was confused for a while.

Klose can see that none of these people are reliable!

"Hey.. Forget it, I'll order it. ”

He shook his head and called the tavernkeeper: "Boss, is there a room?" Give it to us.... Three rooms. ”

The tavern owner was a chubby, bald old man, and he waved his hand directly after listening to Klose's words: "It's gone, it's gone, and there are still three?" None of them are gone! ”

"Clams? That... Are there any other hotels in town that can accommodate people? ”

The boss took out a rag and said with a smile: "We don't usually have many people in this town where birds don't, and even if there are very few people, it is very limited, so only my tavern can accommodate people." ”

Klose is really blind now, could it be that they all entered the town and still slept in the wild?

"Hey~ Boss, do me a favor, we came from afar, and we haven't smelled sweat-stained sheets for many days."

Falke put his arm around the boss's shoulder, and quietly shoved a copper coin into the latter's arms.

The boss immediately smiled when he saw the copper coin: "Hey, hey, hey~ I'm not lying, there is really no room, who will have money not to earn?" But.... If it's just a day or two, then go east out of my shop, and after seeing a small stone bridge, you will see a house with a windmill. That's old Bill's home, and he might be able to take you in. ”

"Hey~Thank you, boss, I wish you a prosperous business~"

"Hehe~Willing to serve Mr.~"

Now that they had found out where they could stay, the group packed their bags and went in the direction pointed out by the tavernkeeper.

As night fell, although it wasn't yet late at night, there were few pedestrians in sight on the streets of Pumpkintown.

I don't know if it's related to the pumpkin-headed ghost.

"Why do I think this town is weird?"

Sitting on Bajie's body, Klose could feel the magic elements in the air a little restless.

Hawkeye Salomon rolled his eyes and said, "I feel weird, too.... We... The ale that I just drank.. It seems like... Didn't pay. ”

"Poof!"

Klose almost choked to death with a mouthful of spit, this Celex who loves to roll his eyes is really shocking and endless!

Fakeha laughed and patted his chest: "How's it going?" A copper coin can get a table of ale wine~ But such a bad ale wine is already a great mercy to give him a copper coin. ”

"Well... I don't think that's good..."

The lizardman Ward protested angrily.

"Hey, come on~ You're not a knight, is it necessary to have such a sense of justice?"

"I... I still don't think it's good..."

The lizardman hung his head, apparently uncomfortable with eating the overlord's meal.

"Hehehe~ Don't worry, I'll ask Kane to make up the money for him later."

Klose patted the lizardman on the shoulder, and the latter's eyes lit up instantly.

"Really?"

After getting Klose to confirm again, the lizardman laughed happily.

"Hey~~~Okay, okay~ Now I'm a bad guy!"

This time I was not happy to change Fack.

The group walked for a while, and sure enough, they saw a small stone bridge.

They walked north along the small bridge, only to find that the surrounding houses were becoming more and more scarce.

"The road... Right? How do I feel like we're out of town? ”

Jadeite asked a little scared.

"If that boss didn't lie to us..."

Fack is starting to feel a little bad too.

Sure enough! When everyone reached the end of the road, a dozen men with torches suddenly burst out of the woods on the side of the road.

"Hey, hey, hey.... Good evening, gentlemen..."

Well, they've met robbers.

Falke glared at Ward and shouted, "See if you're still giving money to that damn boss?!" ”

Who knew that Ward stalked his neck and said unconvinced: "This... A yard is a yard, wine money is wine money, and robbery is robbery..."

"You! ...”

Falk didn't have anything to do with this big man, and if he could beat the latter, I'm afraid he would have done it a long time ago.

"You idiot! Incorrigible wet mice! Ancient geckos! A turtle without a shell! ”

"What do you say? Dare to call me a rat? You... You, you, you... You liar! Liars! Rogue! ”

The lizardman is obviously inferior to Falk in the ability to scold the street, and the more the two of them quarrel, the more intense they become, they are already pulling each other by the collar to do it.

"Don't fight! Don't fight! You all have to say a word! ”

Turquoise struggled in the middle, but Hawkeye Celex looked like he was out of the way.

"Hey! Celence! Come and help me pull them apart! ”

"Oh? No, they're all stupid. ”

"What?!"

Salomon's attitude made the little girl very angry.

"You come down for me! I promise not to kill you today! ”

Jadeite jumped up and grabbed Celem's trouser leg and dragged him off the roof of the carriage.

It's good now.,The side that was supposed to persuade the fight also started a scuffle....

The group of people who came to rob with torches were stunned, what is the situation? Why did the subject of the robbery get into infighting first?

"Hey, hey, hey... I said you guys... Is there an end? ”

One of the robbers walked impatiently two steps, trying to pull Farker and Ward, who were scuffling together.

However, the situation suddenly took a 180-degree turn at the moment when everyone was confused!

"Now!"

Falk and Ward, who were still scuffling, scattered violently.

The former snatched the stick from the robber in front of him, and the latter knocked the unlucky man upside down with one shoulder.

On the other side, Jadestone spun in a ballet-like spin past the robbers.

As she turned, she threw a white powder at the group of robbers.

Salomon --- bow and arrow in the way he knew best! A round of indiscriminate shooting was conducted!

Although most of them shot into the sky, that didn't affect the big picture.

Most of the robbers of these dozen people were idlers and gangsters, and they also watched the faces of Klose and his party, so they had temporary bad intentions.

Klose's mouth was wide open, watching the robbery team of more than a dozen people be beaten and fled.

"It's... Looks like this tease has some skills than the team..."
