"This one is at least heavy enough to hit someone."
Seeing Lu Chen's answer, the barbarian who managed the warehouse could only help Lu Chen register.
Then, Lu Chen left the room with the weapon.
As soon as he went out, Lu Chen saw two strong men waiting aside. They were the guard captain named Ya, who Lu Chen had found to lead the way.
Neither of them were wild-blooded warriors, but Lu Chen didn't have any arrogance either.
"I'll leave it to you to follow the rules at night."
"Don't worry, as long as you don't cause trouble, you'll be fine."
With that said, the two of them took Lu Chen outside the village, explaining to Lu Chen as they went.
"Our patrol team always patrols according to the prescribed routes. You should know this during the day, so I won't say more."
"However, compared to daytime, the scope of our patrol team is reduced by more than half at night. At night, we only need to patrol around the village."
"Remember, no matter what you hear at night, don't think about it or look at it. If you can save one thing at night, there will be one less thing."
While he was talking, another barbarian lit an oil lamp with a torch.
Carefully guarding the oil lamp, another barbarian said:
"Never put out the oil lamp in your hand. In the darkness, there are terrifying monsters wandering around. As long as there is light, the monsters will not take action. But as soon as the light disappears, even big figures in the realm of barbarians and barbarian bones can easily disappear without a trace.
No trace."
"Disappearance, isn't it death?"
"No, there are no bodies on the spot, only footprints that disappear into thin air. No one knows where the people in the darkness went."
In this way, while chattering, the two barbarians took Lu Chen on patrol and explained the matter.
However, when they arrived outside the village, their voices became much quieter, and they warned Lu Chen not to speak unless necessary.
"Sounds attract weird things, and so does the smell of blood, so be careful."
Because Lu Chen used to be a day patrol officer, the other two barbarians talked for a while and said no more.
In their opinion, Lu Chen should know the rest of the things. After all, patrol officers during the day are trained for the night, and they have also talked about some taboos at night.
Lu Chen did know this, but what he heard from others was just hearsay. Lu Chen still needed to patrol on the ground before he could truly understand the taboos of night patrols.
In this way, following the two barbarians, Lu Chen began his night patrol.
There was no sound. The three of them held oil lamps and moved forward along the planned route like ghosts.
This continued for more than half an hour, but when he was walking along the patrol border for about ten minutes, Lu Chen suddenly stopped.
Looking up, Lu Chen saw that there was suddenly light coming from the moonless earth. Looking carefully, Lu Chen found that the light emitted was a fireball the size of a human head. The fireball was red and strange, and it was like a fireball.
Jumping up and down and moving forward.
And when the fireball got a little closer, Lu Chen discovered that although the fireball was a flame, there was a face on it that was smiling ferociously.
Such a scene made Lu Chen take out the iron sword in an instant. At the same time, he put his fingers on the iron sword, ready to break his skin at any time and let blood drip on the "iron sword".
Use this to kill weirdos.
There is no way, the barbarians are poor, and all they can use is their vigorous blood.
Facing the weird, they can only fight the enemy with blood.
Fortunately, he broke through to the barbarian blood warriors. The blood of barbarians contains full of masculinity. This is the best way to deal with weirdness.
However, just when Lu Chen was about to take action, suddenly, two palms grabbed Lu Chen from both sides.
Turning around to look, Lu Chen discovered that it was the two barbarians.
At this time, the two barbarians were a little nervous. While they grabbed Lu Chen, they kept waving their hands, and their eyes showed that they didn't want to do anything.
After hesitating for a moment, Lu Chen chose to listen to the words of the two "old men".
And the facts proved that those two barbarians made the right choice.
That fireball with a human head was indeed approaching the village.
But when it got close to a certain distance, the human-headed fireball seemed to feel a sense of boredom, and was somewhat unwilling to move forward.
However, it seemed to be attracted by the blood energy. Although it did not move forward, the human-headed fireball had no intention of leaving, but kept beating nearby.
On the other side, two barbarians pulled Lu Chen and quickly retreated towards the village.
Soon, Lu Chen was pulled into the village by two barbarians. It was only then that the two barbarians relaxed and dared to breathe loudly. Lu Chen also took advantage of this and asked about the reason.
"What happened just now? Why didn't you do anything?"
These words made the two barbarians look at each other and smile, and then one of them said directly: "Achen, although you are strong, your strength is not enough for patrolling at night."
"That is, for us, we don't have to deal with all weirdness."
"The totem poles in the village have a deterrent effect on evil spirits. Most evil spirits are unwilling to enter the protection range of our totems. Our night patrol team protects monsters that can enter the range of the totem poles at night."
…
From the words of the two barbarians, Lu Chen quickly understood that Manniu Village's method of dealing with evil spirits was to be vigilant and defensive, and to avoid alerting evil spirits as long as possible.
With the totem pole as a deterrent and such a negative approach, Lu Chen found that in this way, the casualties among the members of the patrol team were reduced to a minimum.
However, this also has side effects. Although evil spirits dare not enter the village guarded by totem poles, if they are not cleaned up, those evil spirits will always exist.
Later, during the patrol, Lu Chen felt that there were evil figures wandering almost everywhere around the village at night.
Fireballs with human heads, scarecrows, tattered umbrellas that can move freely... all kinds of evil spirits walk and move at night, but humans, on the other hand, can only be careful and cannot make a single sound.
Such a scene made Lu Chen truly feel that this world and human beings are no longer the masters of heaven and earth.
At least, he is no longer the only master.
"It belongs to humans during the day, and to ghosts and ghosts at night. I didn't expect that the state of this world would be so bad that it would be like this."
After patrolling like this for several more hours, at midnight, when the sky was darkest, Lu Chen followed the two barbarians and arrived at the border of the village again.
The boundary of the patrol team is the boundary covered by the village's totems. Here, the deterrence of the totem poles is reduced to a minimum.
Because of this, the evil spirits gathered here have increased their desire to attack humans.
Every time I patrol here, the evil spirits here are eager to attack, and they no longer hide their malice toward humans.
The two barbarians were used to this. They took one look at Xie Sui and did not dare to speak. Instead, they backed away cautiously.
However, after retreating tens of meters, the two barbarians suddenly discovered that they were the only ones retreating this time, and the genius who was ordered by Master Wu Zhu did not follow.
