Chapter 106 Treasure Hunt
"Have you ever heard of the Headless Horseman?"

Returning along the original road leading to the castle, Shaar asked.

"I seem to have heard of it." Sebas recalled with a frown.

"If it really exists, it may be some kind of spirit monster formed from legends, and the others are not very clear.

Although it is a system, the god of death in Europe and the god of death in Britannia are two departments, and I don't often see it. I don't know much about Europe. "

Shaar nodded, that group of assassins may not have come to find the treasure, and Hei Lang may still be in the stage of finding the whereabouts of that organization, looking around for incidents related to the mystery.

They walked slowly on the uninhabited trails in the countryside, and soon left the village.

But soon, the road ahead was blocked by those assassins, their faces were hidden under the hood, making it difficult to see their expressions.

The leader is a middle-aged man who looks to be in his 30s, with slightly obvious nasolabial folds.

"Who are you?" The middle-aged man said, "What are you doing here?"

Xia Ya's eyelids were slightly closed, and a slight smile appeared on his face, "It seems that Hei Lang never told you that you should never expose your existence until you have a thorough understanding of the target.

You are an assassin, but you are not qualified at all. "

The middle-aged man and his companion looked at each other.

Then, he continued, "You know our mentor?"

"It's okay, we've met each other not long ago." Xia Ya said, looking at the three of them, "You are here to investigate the Headless Horseman, right?"

After the middle-aged man was silent for a moment, he said, "My name is Hoover, and their names are Hagu and Doyle. I don't know what your name is"

"Go and ask your mentor." Xia Ya didn't seem to want to mention his name, "he will tell you of course."

Hoover's face was slightly stagnant, and then he asked tentatively, "Are you also here to investigate this matter?"

"No, I'm here to play." Shaar said, "By the way, play a treasure hunt with the child."

"Treasure hunt. Game?" Hoover had some difficulty understanding the meaning of Shaar's words.

And the only woman among the three said, "If you are here with your children, I suggest you take your children and leave as soon as possible. This is not a fun place, it is very dangerous."

Her body frame is smaller than that of European women, and she seems to be of some mixed race, with some freckles on her face.

Her name is Doyle.

"Oh?" Char asked curiously, "Does that Headless Horseman really exist?"

"Someone nearby was beheaded by a headless horseman." Doyle said, "That's why we came here to investigate the truth of the matter. Even if it's not a real headless horseman, there must be a cruel serial killer here."

Shaar nodded, "Thank you for your advice, we will pay attention to it.

Well, bye bye. "

He nodded to several people, then walked towards the path behind them, Sebastian followed behind him.

The few people just quietly watched Xia's leaving back.

"How is it? Hagu." Hoover asked another man beside him.

"I can't see the details." Hagu said.

Hoover sighed, "If only we had awakened Hawkeye."

Hagu asked, "Will it be someone from the Nightmare Sect?"

Hoover shook his head, "I don't think so, and the members of the Nightmare Order don't know the mentor's real name."

"Do you want to try it directly?" Ha Gu said, "Anyway, there are three of us, and there are only two of them, and the two of them don't look very powerful."

Hoover shook his head, "If he is a friend of the mentor, it will be difficult."

"The tutor must know him." Doyle said seriously.

Hoover nodded, "Let's wait and see, and see their real purpose."

The other two also nodded.

"You friends of friends don't seem very friendly to you," Sebas said.

Shaar shrugged, "They have some fateful enemies, so it's normal to be more vigilant."

While chatting, they also went all the way back to the gate of the castle.

The place where Calcifer docked is very spiritual. During the last renovation, there were many shrubs in the castle. Now it is docked in the forest, and it is perfectly integrated with the trees. If you don’t go deep, you really can’t see it.

Seeing Xia's return, Arthur ran out of the castle and asked with concern.

"Teacher, did you find anything?"

"Almost." He said solemnly, "The treasure will only appear when the moon is dark and the wind is high."

He looked at Arthur with an unknown gleam in his eyes, "So we have to wait until night."

"Can I go?" Arthur asked expectantly.

"Of course." Xia said with a smile, "You were the one who mentioned this treasure, didn't you?"

"Great!" Arthur said excitedly, swinging his arms.

"That's right, you might want to take the sword with you," Xiaya said.

Arthur was taken aback for a moment, and then he heard Shaar explain.

"We are going into the forest and need a sword to cut the branches."

It's not 100% sure that the Headless Horseman or clues about him will be found tonight, but if they really came here by fate.

Then the probability of them encountering that thing will be quite high.

Arthur nodded, "I see."

So they entered the castle and began to wait for the night to fall.

Around eight or nine o'clock in the evening, Shaar left the castle with Arthur, and Sebastian hadn't gone back yet, so he came together, anyway, he was idle.

Isabel was also very curious about this, so Xia also brought Isabel with her, but Alicia didn't want to go out anymore. She seemed to have guessed something and knew that there would be some troubles next, so she didn't want to cause trouble.

In order to protect Alicia, Calcifer, who originally wanted to go, also stayed.

They went straight to the "Forbidden Forest" that the tavern proprietress said on the map.

Not far from the village, at the end of the valley.

There is a church there, which looks very old, with mottled marks on the walls and some climbing plants.

There is a large lawn at the entrance of the church. It seems that someone often takes care of it, and the lawn is neatly trimmed.

And the forest at the end of the lawn is probably the so-called forbidden forest.

It was the same as the tree that the castle saw when it entered the valley. Although it was spring, there were no leaves on the tree. I don’t know what kind it was. Against the background of the fog, it makes people feel hairy.

Xia Ya also saw one of the men who had previously fought in the bar at the door of this church, and he was begging for something to a woman.

It was a Germanic woman, with golden blue eyes, fair skin, very beautiful, with the corners of her mouth downcast, showing a hint of impatience.

Shaar applied a little magic to hide their aura.

As they approached, their quarrels also came.

"Ma Lin, I know you must have married him to anger me. I was wrong, I was really wrong, can you give me another chance?"

Marlene sighed softly, her hands were crossed on her chest, and there was a little sadness in her eyes.

"But I'm married, Baker."

The diamond ring on her hand shone faintly under the starlight.

"I have taken an oath with Woolf in the church, and under the witness of God, I have become a legal husband and wife."

"No, no." Baker seemed a little unacceptable, he swung his arms excitedly, his eyes were red, "You are mine!"

"We can't break our oath." Marlene said with a painful expression.

"No, no." Baker seemed a little dazed, with a bit of ferocity flashing in his eyes, "There is another way."

Looking at Baker's expression, Xia noticed the obvious cunning in Marlene's eyes.

I don't know if the Headless Horseman will appear tonight, but it is also very pleasant to be able to eat melons while waiting.

At least Xia, Isabel, and Sebastian watched it with relish.
