Chapter 7 The Responder
"Remember?" Fang Nianshui said sharply.
"Remember." The three of them replied sympathetically, keeping Fang Nianshui's words firmly in mind. It was a matter of life and death, and no one dared to neglect it.
"Okay, just remember, let's keep walking." In the blink of an eye, Fang Nianshui returned to his original playful smile.
"Are you still going?" Li Er said nervously, his legs trembling.
Fang Nianshui chuckled: "Let's go, why not go? There are more fun things ahead?"
Hearing this, Ye Qing and the other three looked at each other with sympathy. They couldn't agree with Nian Shui's so-called "fun thing".
"These are the places and areas we will patrol in the future. You must remember them."
After walking through the fields, the four of them continued walking along the official road. As they walked, Fang Nianshui chattered and told Ye Qing and the others about the areas and routes they would patrol in the future.
"Hehe...haha..."
While walking, a gust of breeze blew by, the green trees on both sides of the official road swayed, and a faint burst of laughter reached Ye Qing's ears.
Ye Qing immediately became alert, narrowed his eyes slightly, and observed the surrounding situation.
"Ye...Ye Qing, you...did you hear anything?" On the side, Li Er shrugged his shoulders and looked around furtively, with a panicked look on his face.
Ye Qing said casually: "I heard the noisy sound of the wind."
Li Er: "..."
"Hehe...haha..."
At this moment, a stronger gust of wind passed by several people, lifting their clothes, and those laughing and joking voices became more and more prominent, as if they were in their ears.
In Ye Qing's peripheral vision, he seemed to see a blurry figure disappearing in the blink of an eye.
"Ah... ghost, ghost!" Li Er exclaimed, turned around and ran towards the village, but as soon as he ran, he saw a figure appearing behind Li Er at a faster speed than him and grabbed his arm.
collar and picked him up.
"Ghost, what a ghost you are!" Fang Nianshui slapped Li Er on the head to calm him down, and said impatiently: "Where did the ghost come from in broad daylight? This is a wind boy, there is no harm."
"Wind child?" Ye Qing concentrated his eyes and looked at the breeze passing through the air. Sure enough, in the breeze, he saw some vague shadows like children, chasing them in the air with the breeze, feeling very uncomfortable.
"Well, Feng Boy is also a mortal monster. He likes to hide in the wind and fly with the wind. He will not attack others. But once someone messes with him, he will be more difficult to deal with than a clay doll."
"Our Team Lin accidentally provoked Feng Hai'er before. With Team Lin's strength in the late stage of Qi Condensation, we almost had a hiccup. Fortunately, Granny Xia and Captain Chen took action, and Captain Lin was spared. So, if we encounter Feng in the future,
Children, don't mess with them."
"Lin Hu, late stage of Qi Condensation?" Ye Qing narrowed his eyes. So, Chen Zheng, who is one of the top three martial arts masters in Junshan Village along with Lin Hu, should also be around the late stage of Qi Condensation.
"I'll teach you another lesson. Don't be nervous when encountering danger or other things, and don't shout and scream. Such people are most likely to die." Fang Nianshui let go of Li Er's collar, smiled and cursed: "Thank you.
You look tall and thick, but I didn't expect you to be so timid and a coward."
Li Er chuckled and touched his head awkwardly.
"Okay, later you go to the middle, Ye Qing, go to the back, don't be surprised anymore."
"Okay." Ye Qing and Li Er responded and exchanged positions.
"Now I'll give you a second lesson. When encountering danger or unknown things, you must stay calm and observe the surrounding environment. The more nervous and scared you are, the easier it is to lose your life if you lose your bearings."
Fang Nianshui continued: "Okay, let's walk around again."
After these two incidents, Ye Qing and others were somewhat prepared. It was not like they were shocked and panicked like before when they saw something strange.
"The tallest and largest mountain is Xiaojun Mountain, which is also the origin of our Junshan Village. In addition, although Xiaojun Mountain looks peaceful, it is actually very dangerous. Even Captain Lin and others do not dare to enter Xiaojun Mountain rashly.
"
Fang Nianshui pointed to a tall and towering mountain in the distance, explained it to the three of them, and then said: "At this point, our patrol area is over. Oh, after talking for a long time, I haven't mentioned the main work of our patrol team yet.
, the job of our patrol team is, firstly, to protect the farming villagers from monster attacks; secondly, to protect the farmland and prevent certain monsters from destroying the farmland and crops; thirdly, to protect the village from monster attacks.
.In addition, if you find any dangerous monsters wandering around during the patrol, you must report it in time."
"Okay, I've been walking for almost an hour. I've said everything that needs to be said. Let's go back now."
"Great, we can finally go back." Li Er shouted excitedly and shook the iron long stick in his hand.
"It's great, we can finally go back." On the side, the silent Annian also repeated it, but he seemed a little stiff.
"Okay, let's go!" Fang Nianshui did not blame Li Er this time and waved his hand.
"Okay, let's go!" Anniversary repeated again.
"Anniversary, why are you repeating what we said?" Li Er asked doubtfully.
"Anniversary, why are you repeating what we said?" Anniversary asked again.
"Nian Nian, what's wrong with you? Hey, why are you bleeding from the back of your neck?" Li Er didn't know why, and saw that there seemed to be blood on Nian Nian's neck, and was about to walk towards Nian Nian.
But Ye Qing frowned and grabbed Li Er: "Don't go there, there is something wrong with the anniversary?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Xian seemed to be stimulated by something, his eyes suddenly turned blood red, he roared, and slashed at Ye Qing and Li Er with his sword.
Li Er seemed to be frightened, his eyes were wide open and he was at a loss. Ye Qing on the side pulled Li Er aside, pulled out the long knife, and swept it out.
With a "clang" sound, the long sword in Nian Nian's hand was knocked away directly, and then the sword's power was still not exhausted, and it slashed across Nian Nian's neck with huge force.
A head soared into the sky.
"Plop..."
Anniversary's headless body rushed forward two steps with inertia and collapsed to the ground.
"Ah..." It was only then that Li Er's cry sounded.
"Shut up, idiot, do you want to die?" Suddenly, Fang Nianshui's cold voice sounded in Li Er's ears. Li Er was startled and quickly covered his mouth, but he couldn't hide the panic on his face.
"Fang Tou, just now I..." Seeing Fang Nianshui looking at him, Ye Qing hurriedly explained.
"I don't blame you, it's just a yes man." Before he could finish speaking, Fang Nianshui waved his hand, walked over to Tuesday's head, looked at it, and crushed the head on the ground with his kick.
The moment the head was broken, an insect as long as half a finger, like a cabbage caterpillar, crawled out of the flesh.
Apparently, at some point, this bug got into Anniversary's head.
"This is the Yes Man, a mortal-level monster with no offensive power, but it has the ability to bite people's heads and burrow into their heads unknowingly. Once it burrows into a person's head, the Yes Man will control
That person learns what others say, and until he is seen through, the yes man will control that person to attack the people around him, making it impossible to prevent him. There have been many incidents in the past where people controlled by the yes man attacked their companions and teammates, resulting in many deaths and injuries."
"Obviously, Anniversary was controlled by the yes-men at some point. Ye Qing, you did the right thing and responded quickly! Otherwise, both you and Li Er would be in danger."
Ye Qing squinted his eyes, his face looked a little pale, he didn't speak, and his body was trembling slightly.
"Ye Qing, are you okay?" Fang Nianshui thought it was Ye Qing's first murder and was scared, so he asked.
Ye Qing shook his head, his body still trembling slightly. Fang Nianshui thought he was scared, but little did he know that he was suppressing the bloodthirsty desire in his body.
Because the moment he saw the blood of Anniversary just now, the blood in his body boiled instantly, like bloodthirsty beasts, eager to swallow up all the blood on Anniversary's body.
"Hmph", Ye Qing put his hands behind his back and dug his nails into his flesh. The huge pain slowly suppressed the bloodthirsty feeling in his body.
"Don't be afraid. This is the first time you kill someone. You'll get used to it from now on. In addition, Anniversary has already died. If you kill him, you are actually avenging him. There is no need to feel guilty." Fang Nianshui comforted him and was about to kick him.
Trample that yes-man on the ground to death.
That yes-worm, away from the person's head, seems to be an ordinary caterpillar, crawling very slowly.
"Don't move!" Suddenly, Ye Qing shouted anxiously.
"What's wrong?" Fang Nianshui was also startled by Ye Qing, thinking something had happened.
"Let me do it!" While Fang Nianshui was in a daze, Ye Qing rushed forward and stepped on the yes-man. With a "pop" sound, a stream of green water came out from under his feet.
"Ahem, I'm avenging the anniversary!" After crushing the yes-man, Ye Qing raised his head and faced Nian Shui's strange eyes above him, touched his nose, and explained.
"Forget it!" Fang Nianshui frowned and said nothing. He took out a talisman from his arms. The talisman exploded with a layer of flames and threw it towards Anniversary's body on the ground.
Anniversary's body was instantly burned to ashes.
"Uh, Fang Tou, don't we... take Nian Nian's body back?" Li Er asked tremblingly, obviously he had not yet recovered from Nian Nian's death.
"No, on the one hand, it's unnecessary. Dust returns to dust, dust returns to dust. When a person dies, what's the use of bringing a corpse back? On the other hand, the smell of blood on the corpse is likely to attract some dangerous monsters.
, so if a companion dies in the future, just use the flame talisman to incinerate him." Fang Nianshui replied.
"Fang Tou, are you talking about those?" After Fang Nianshui finished speaking, Ye Qing pointed to the sky not far away.
Fang Nianshui turned his head and looked around, and saw that the sky was filled with dark clouds at some point, a dense mass of black clouds, rushing towards this side. Wherever he passed, the clouds disappeared and the mist dispersed. Even the windy children who were laughing in the air before had fled far away.
Far.
"buzz"
As they flew closer, a huge buzzing sound came from Ye Qing's ears, and only then did they see clearly that the huge dark cloud was not a real dark cloud, but a swarm of mosquitoes.
A dense swarm of countless black mosquitoes.
Because there are too many mosquitoes and they are too dense, it looks like a cloud.
