Before Shi Cheng was disabled, he was a member of the patrol team, so his experience was naturally very rich. He explained everything from the flowers and plants outside the village to the things that needed attention.
Shi Guan carefully noted it down and asked if there was anything he didn't understand.
In Shi Cheng's words, in the patrol team, hesitation is very taboo, and any possible situation can be quickly judged by any slight disturbance.
This is a truth that countless ancestors have understood with their blood and sweat.
Shi Cheng said.
Stone Observation Notes.
The oil lamp went out.
The chatter continued into the afternoon.
"I have told you all the precautions I can think of, but this alone is not enough. Although experience is important, necessary adaptability is also necessary. Of course, these take time to understand." Speaking of this, Shi Cheng was worried.
Patrolling may seem simple on paper, but it actually tests one's abilities.
When Shi Guan was a child, he could not be called stupid, but he could not be called smart either.
I'm afraid there will be many dangers here.
Village rules are the foundation of the village and must not be broken.
Besides, that weird poison——
Shi Cheng felt a twinge of pain in his heart and patted Shi Guan's shoulder, "Let's have lunch first. Father will tell you something later."
Shi Pian nodded.
Patrolling is a matter of life and there is no room for carelessness.
Don't hang out outside the village if you haven't succeeded yet. That would be a shame to the time traveler.
However, how to obtain the soul points of this system?
It would be nice if there were some livestock.
Shi Guan thought.
If you want to test out how to obtain soul points, killing livestock is undoubtedly the safest and easiest way.
The two of them and the dog were eating quietly, looking very worried.
Suddenly there was a shouting outside the house.
"Shi Cheng, come out and get the meat!"
Shi Guan raised his eyebrows. His father was one of the leaders when he retired from the patrol. Ordinary villagers respected him for his role in protecting the village and called him respectfully. However, the man outside called Shi Cheng by his first name.
No sign of respect.
Thinking that Shi Cheng had difficulty moving, he wanted to go out first and didn't want to be stopped.
Shi Cheng shook his head and said: "I'll go!"
When he opened the door, he saw a tall and thin man with bare arms and a piece of blood-fat-condensed meat on his shoulder, staring coldly at the place.
With a brush, he raised the knife with his left hand, and a piece of meat was separated from the meat on the shoulder, and fell onto his hand with a clatter.
"In the middle of the month, the stone will make a home, and the meat will be two ounces!"
Shi Cheng took the meat, but heard the other party say: "Since the village chief asked you to be the butler, you will clean up tonight. Tomorrow is the middle of the month, and we need some manpower in these two days."
"Don't worry, I'll go there tonight!" Shi Cheng said.
"That's good." A smile appeared on the man's face, but he looked quite ferocious. He turned around and limped away.
Shi Cheng took the meat, thought about it, cut off a small piece with a knife, and then said: "Wait for me at home first, and I'll be back as soon as I go."
"Where to go?"
Shi Chengdao: "Your Uncle Zhang's house."
Shi Cheng's back quickly disappeared into the street.
Shi Guan had nothing to do but sit in his seat and stare at the old dog.
I don’t know if I will get soul points if I kill this old dog.
As he thought, he suddenly noticed that the old yellow dog's eyes seemed to jump for a moment, and then jumped to the side, looking very alert.
Shi Guan clicked his tongue and marveled, this old dog is really keen, no wonder some people call it psychic.
Muramasa, who was originally called a Gu Master, didn't know what his abilities were, and whether he had anything to do with the strange person who was rumored to have poisoned him in his previous life.
Just now, when his father mentioned the village chief, he solemnly talked about his identity as a Gu Master. The Gu Master played a decisive role in the village being able to survive in this weird place.
It's a pity that I don't have the talent of a Gu Master.
The demand for Gu Master talents is extremely high. Every few years, Muramasa will gather all the newborns in the village together to test their Gu Master talents.
Naturally, Shi Guan also took the test, but unfortunately, he did not become that one person in a million.
The protagonist's halo is a bit weak.
I sighed secretly in my heart.
Fortunately, I have a golden finger, otherwise this old life would be ruined.
Not long after waiting, Shi Cheng returned, but the meat in his hand had disappeared.
"I will teach you some more experience today, and I will take you to your Uncle Zhang's house tomorrow morning!" Shi Cheng said with a smile, and then threw the piece of meat at the old yellow dog.
The muscles on Shi Guan's face twitched slightly, feeling helpless.
I thought this piece of meat was for him to eat, but obviously I was overthinking it.
"Old Huang, you will follow Guan'er from now on, and you must protect him." Shi Cheng touched the sparse hair on Old Huang's body and said earnestly.
Shi Guan felt that Shi Cheng was talking to a human being.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Shi Guan seemed to have nodded when he saw the old yellow dog.
Damn it, what kind of world is this?
He finally accepted the old yellow dog's strangeness.
"Father, are you going to kill animals tonight?"
"Yes. The position of animal killer is considered a good position, which means that I can contribute well to the patrol team, otherwise it would not be my turn to do it." A smile appeared on Shi Cheng's face, but he looked a little bitter.
No matter how good your position is, it means nothing if the person you want to protect is no longer there.
"Can I go over there and have a look tonight?"
Although Shi Cheng was puzzled, he thought that the separation was imminent and he was there to protect him, so it would not be a big problem, so he agreed.
Before nightfall, the two of them packed up and left the house.
Weird abilities are fully demonstrated at night, so when night falls in the village, many people choose to stay indoors.
So along the way, the two of them met basically no one.
The slaughterhouse is located on the edge of the village.
As soon as we got closer, a faint smell of blood came from the air.
Shi Guan tightened his clothes and felt that the temperature around here seemed to be much lower than other places.
He suddenly stopped.
However, he saw an old drum appearing in front of him, with its back to him, and further ahead was a simple wooden plaque. Because both of them had their backs to him, it was difficult to see the front clearly.
But Shi Guan knew the magic of this drum. According to the villagers, this drum was indispensable for Shilin Village to survive in endless dangers.
When my predecessor was a child, I was curious about this big drum, and I never once thought about climbing up to the big drum to see what was going on. However, the adults paid so much attention to this big drum that a group of little friends had to retreat.
One time in my memory, a child broke into Dagu's protected area and was caught by the patrol. If Muramasa hadn't opened his mouth, his foot would have been amputated.
Even if he escaped, the child was beaten by the adults until he became incontinent, and then he was dragged on the ground with a rope three times around the village. When he stopped, his whole body was covered in blood, and it was too miserable to look at.
Since then, no child has dared to violate the taboo.
Shi Guan's heart tightened, and he bypassed the old drum and Shi Cheng and entered the slaughterhouse.
"Ah Cheng!"
A strong man came from a distance with three or four members of the patrol. When he saw Shi Cheng and the others, his eyes widened, he grinned and shouted.
Shi Cheng's serious face also showed a smile.
"Aguan, say hello to Uncle Zhang!" Shi Cheng turned his face.
Shi Guan quickly shouted: "Uncle Zhang!" He was slightly shuddered in his heart. This man was tall and powerful, with bulging veins looming on his exposed thick arms. Just one look at him could make people feel a fierce aura.
.
Zhang Yan nodded and stared at Shi Guan with complex eyes, "Wait a few days and come under Uncle Zhang. Then Uncle Zhang will train you well!"
"Thank you, Uncle Zhang!"
Seeing his father Shi Cheng nodding secretly, Shi Guan said quickly.
"But it's so dark and you're not in good health. Why don't you rest at home?" Zhang Yan said and looked at Shi Cheng.
Dark night is when those things are active. Although the village is guarded by a big drum, it cannot completely avoid the invasion of those things.
Moreover, a person contaminated by the weird blood may at some point become a positioning coordinate of the weird, attracting the original weird's attack. Although this possibility is very low, Zhang Yan, as one of the captains of the patrol, naturally
He is responsible for the safety of the village.
He looked at Shi Cheng, the scrutiny in his eyes self-evident.
"I was worried about Aguan staying at home alone, so I brought him here!" Shi Cheng's eyes were filled with pleading.
Zhang Yan said: "If that's the case, then Aguan can stay here, but don't stray too far from the divine drum!"
"Of course I know this." Shi Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, then turned to Shi Guan and said: "Aguan, you stand next to the divine drum and you can't run around, you know?"
Shi Cheng's expression was even a little stern when he spoke.
Shi Guan nodded solemnly. For him now, survival is the most important thing. Don't think that having a golden finger means you can have no scruples.
A divine drum?
Suddenly, a scream disturbed his thoughts.
His heart skipped a beat when he saw a wooden house not far away shake violently, and then a stream of blood seeped out from inside.
