The Village Girl Who Was Forced to Become the Hero

"Oh... it's true."

Heinoff carefully checked the parchment that Celer had brought, then rolled up the map and returned it to him, with a slightly hypocritical and relaxed smile on his face: "I'm sorry to question you. Mr. Celer. If there is no problem with the map, I will be able to find out where the treasure is buried soon."

"It's really big brother!"

Reiner looked at the man with admiration, but it didn’t seem to be very useful to Heinough. He skipped Reiner and looked at Celer, still shining shrewdly under his glasses: "But no I know why, while studying this painting these days, I always feel that something is missing...Is it something I missed? What do you think? Mr. Celer, I don’t know where your progress is. What?"

"Not at all, I don't know how to understand these strange graphics." Celer shrugged, looking helpless, "I believe that with the wisdom of Brother Heinoff, the answer will be found."

"Haha... I'm really overwhelmed, Mr. Celer." Heinough pushed his round-frame glasses, smiled and squinted his eyes and said, "I like talking people like you. Of course, except for those who like to be smart. time…"

"Oh, thank you." Celer cocked his mouth, and didn't respond to Heinough's suggestive words.

"If you have anything to discuss with me, please come to me, Mr. Celer."

There will be no more progress in the conversation, Heinoff took off his hat and said goodbye to Celer, and then turned around and left the place alone.

Even the sluggish Rainer saw that the atmosphere was a bit subtle. He kept watching his brother leave, and then he looked at Celer hesitantly and asked, "Hey... Sely, are you hiding anything from me?"

"Yes."

"If not... wait, what did you say?!"

Unexpectedly, Celir's answer would be so simple, Lena, who was still under the dazzling spirit, was taken aback for a moment, then jumped up and shouted: "Damn! What are you hiding from me?!"

"Since it's hiding something from you, then how could I tell you." Celer grinned awkwardly, and Lena was even more upset when he heard the words. He immediately stepped forward and grabbed his neckline and said, "Hey you are not meaningful enough. Ah, we obviously grew up together since we were young, so there is something you can't tell me!"

"It's something you can't tell you everywhere." Celier looked at him and responded with a grin.

"Damn! I have something to say everywhere!" Rainer rushed over in annoyance, "See if I won't beat you!"

...

After sending away Lena, who had been arguing with him, Celier returned to his room, locked the door behind him, and threw the parchment paper under the bed.

Then the boy returned to the window and carefully raised the floor, revealing a very small space. He reached out and touched it, and took out the bronze short knife hidden inside.

Although Celer is not an expert in counterfeiting, he just used distressed parchment paper, and after painting it with ink, he scented it. At first glance, it still looks a bit different. But when Heinoff found that he could not interpret these prompts, the man might have doubts about the clues he provided—it was a matter of time. In fact, Celer doesn’t really care if Heinoff can be fooled. Anyway, he never planned to let that man join him. I’m afraid it’s the same for that man. When he can find the treasure, it’s very May find an opportunity to kill him.

Most importantly, Celer also had no doubt that Heinoff would betray Reiner in order to obtain the treasure of the great pirate. For Celer, all he was doing was delaying time. Lena grew up with him. He really knew that guy too well. He had long guessed that Lena might not be able to help his knowledgeable and wise elder brother, but it was too easy to think carefully about that point. Expose, this guy can't hide Heinnov. Therefore, when Leiner asked him for a copy of the map, even if he knew that he would encounter quite troublesome things in the future, Celer did not expose Leiner. The guy would soon understand how much he would have to eat if he was so naive. Unfortunately, this may also be a good thing for him.

And Celir's own map is almost complete.

But when Celier rearranged and spliced ​​the patterns drawn according to known hints one by one, he found that he couldn't make up a complete picture.

In other words, it is like a pile of fragments, there is no connection between them, or even their true order.

…What exactly is going on?

Celir tried various orders of replacement, but he couldn't find the feeling. Then he suddenly realized that the carving on the handle of the knife might not be a complete map either.

Celil suddenly thought that the knife in front of him should have a beautiful scabbard, maybe they are the real treasure map together.

Suddenly thinking of this, Celier couldn't help but laughed at himself, and then rekindled his wits.

Sure enough, it's not that simple to find the treasure of the great pirate...

...

"You guy has to say something in person, can't you just call...what?! You said the treasure map is incomplete?!"

Rainer, who was called for the appointment early in the morning, just yawned sleepily, but when Celer told him the situation, Rainer became sober in an instant and could not help but yelled, "Damn! It's not that you can't understand." Excuse the map, right?!"

"Do you think I am you?" Celer rolled his eyes and said in a bad tone, "I have already drawn the picture, but I still lack the information and can't put together a complete map."

"Tsk, do you want to go to that kind of place..." Rainer looked a little reluctant, frowning and said, "Although we found the knife there, we repeatedly turned over the pile of things at the time, and we didn't even see it. There are other things."

"That only means you haven't looked for its belly seriously." Celer said as he took out a pair of gloves from his bag and threw it to Lena. "I'm ready. If it's a man, just go ahead. ?"

"Crap, of course!" Rainer picked up the pair of gloves, "wait for me to get some water and food, or I will starve to death on the road."

"...Just one day, you can eat like a pig."

"Shut up! I'm an adolescent! Of course I have to eat more and not be hungry!"

Lena ran away while talking, Celier shrugged, turned and sneaked into an unopened tavern.

...

"Strange...not in the snake's belly."

"Have you looked for it carefully?"

"Damn! Of course I found it! If you have an opinion, come up with it yourself!"

Celir took the smoke away from the little snakes that were walking around, and commanded Leiner, who roared back angrily. This kid endured the nausea and almost drew the double-headed snake upright. Even its internal organs were dug out, but he still couldn't find what they wanted in it.

"I said we couldn't miss anything." Rainer sat down on the ground in annoyance, panting and complaining, "I ran for nothing. I knew this would happen and I would rather go out to sea with my father... alas, It seems that even Big Brother can't solve the secret of the map...Forget it, let's take the snake back this time."

"Don't worry, it's already here anyway, it's better to look around." Celer looked around and said, "Speaking of why this knife is in the belly of the basilisk, when was it swallowed? It’s all a question worthy of attention. Sbilat himself sank with his ship, so who took the knife? If we can figure this out, maybe we can find its sheath. Up."

"You're right! How could I not have thought of this!" Rainer dropped his gloves and immediately caught up with Celir. "Then what are your plans?"

"Let's take a look inside its lair." Celer lit a fire lamp, threw a worm-repellent stone in it, and smiled badly. "I hope there will be no basilisk sons or daughters in it."

"Hey, don't talk about such horrible things!"

The two of them quarreled and walked straight into the depths. The cave was gloomy, with white rat skeletons everywhere, and the entrenched little snakes scented the smoke from the deworming stone and left them one after another. Because of the Basilisk’s relationship with this place, all people who come here will disappear. Those who escaped by chance told others not to go there, so few people will step into it for decades, and it has gradually become a forbidden area on the island. one. And in these decades, Celer and Rainer decided to take a risk here in order to prove the courage of the man, only to find that this place was not as rumored long ago. The fearsome two-headed basilisk did not know when. already dead.

So far everything has gone smoothly. It was something that had never been thought of before. Now Celer feels that if this continues, they might really be able to find the treasure of the great pirate, and then change the pattern of Cocoroni’s Treasure Island...

But as he stepped into the depths of the cave, Celir always felt that the atmosphere seemed wrong.

Unconsciously, a strange sense of anxiety surged from Celir's heart.

I don't know why or when it started. Every time I take a step forward, the feeling of anxiety becomes stronger.

The Celiers slowed down. He felt that he was even a little panicked in his heart. This feeling was very unusual.

In the years when he grew up, Celer had never been so scared as he is now, but he didn't understand what he was scared of.

There must be something wrong...

"Hey, Lena, do you think..."

Celer suppressed the anxiety and wanted to ask if Lena felt something was wrong, so he stopped and looked back.

However, when Celer looked back, he found that his good friend seemed to be frozen, as if he hadn't seen him or heard him speak, his face maintained a high-interest expression, and he was staring straight. Ahead.

…Why is this going on? !

Celir took a step back in astonishment, and then he realized that everything around him was different.

Not only Rainer, but the snakes scattered around also stopped moving, and the air seemed to freeze.

…Is time stopped?

No, what the **** is going on?

Celir stared at all this, he suddenly realized that he might have forgotten a very important thing, but he couldn't remember it anymore.

What the **** is that? Why does the whole world seem to be able to move by oneself?

Obviously so far, everything is still normal!

[If you keep going, you will lose everything]

Almost while Celir felt like he was missing something, he looked around, couldn't find the direction, and didn't know what was going on.

Everything came too suddenly, and then a voice rang in Celier's mind.

It seemed to be a sound from my subconscious, and it seemed so far away.

What surprised Celer the most was that the voice made him very familiar.

That was Rainer's voice.

Celir stood there for a moment, he slowly started to retreat, avoiding the strong sense of danger.

When he retreated, Celer couldn't remember what he thought. He only felt that his mind was in chaos. Many pictures seemed to be interrupted suddenly, and they had already switched to another scene when they were connected.

After stepping back not far, on a corner of the cave, Celier saw Heinoff in a long coat following him.

The man also seemed to be frozen, his eyes were like a poisonous snake in this cave, and he peeped into the depths maliciously.

"..."

At this moment, there are countless pictures split, and countless pictures overlap and then quickly fall apart. Everything is extremely chaotic, as if a large number of fragments are still in a container, each piece is shining, and each piece has a memory.

Good and bad.

Those fragments flashed back and forth in Celir's mind, and his mind began to be chaotic, and he began to think of nothing else.

But Celer knew one thing very well.

These things seem to have happened a long time ago.

It was here that Lena died.

The author has something to say: that is to say that those before were Celil’s memories. If he continues to move forward, Rainer will die. If he does not want to face the reality, as long as he turns and leaves now, he can continue to stay in this self-created one. In the world, there is no death, and Jiyou will continue to live in his world.

Brother Lin will appear in the next chapter! I’ve been stuck in this chapter for a long, long time...
