Weird past in the countryside

Chapter 56 As if facing the enemy, ingenious fortifications
I laughed from the side and said, "It's pretty good, you two have got it all." After I finished speaking, I got kicked twice at the same time.

The master smiled and said: "Okay, don't be joking. When Wei Meng comes back, everyone will cut some mahogany swords out. After that, kill the chicken and soak it in blood for twelve hours." He muttered again: "Originally, the effect of black dog blood is better."

I glanced at the little black dog curled up in the corner. The little black dog had just come to a strange place and was a little afraid of people.He stared at everyone with two round black eyes, and made whining sounds from time to time.

Master sighed: "Let's use chicken blood."

Not long after, Wei Meng came back carrying a few thick peach branches, and threw the branches outside the door.When the master went out to see it, he rubbed his hands in distress.He said helplessly to Wei Meng: "Mengzi, did you dig up my peach tree by the roots? Why did you do so much?"

Wei Meng shook his head: "No, I'm thinking about doing more, just to be prepared."

The master didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I hope my peach trees can still survive. Don't look at it, everyone, hurry up and do it."

Wei Meng swung his knife to divide the branch into small pieces. Everyone took the pocket knife and the kitchen knife and began to sharpen the mahogany sword.Time is tight, and no shape is required. Most of them just cut out a sword shape, a point, and a handle.

In the afternoon, everyone prepared dozens of mahogany swords. After killing the chickens, they dyed the mahogany swords with chicken blood.

At this time, the loudspeaker in the village made a piercing sound, and then the village chief began to shout from inside: "Villagers, please pay attention, villagers, please pay attention. An important announcement will be broadcast below, an important announcement. At night, Everyone try not to go out, don't go out. There is another thing, there is another thing, whoever has a black dog and a rooster at home, please cooperate and send it to the village primary school. Send it to the village primary school. Master Yuan is useful, all for Hello everyone. Don’t search for it one by one, what a broken dog can do, it’s all contributing to the village, right? After the matter is over, raise another one. Broadcast it again, broadcast it again..."

Xiaoyue and Yuling'er listened to the trumpet and played straight music. At first, the village chief gave the announcement in a serious manner, but later it almost seemed like he was chatting about homework.I thought to myself that this is probably also a characteristic of the rural areas in Northeast China.The village chief rambled on and on inside, but the effect was not very good.After talking for a long time, no one came to give chickens or dogs.

I smiled wryly: "Oh, when they suffer, they will know the seriousness of the matter."

Master said: "There is no other way, now we can only find a way according to the current conditions."

We nodded and began to organize the items around us.I saw Xiaoyue was still standing by the side, so I said to her: "It's dangerous at night, you stick up the talisman paper and don't come out."

Ning Xiaoyue shook her head: "You have too few people, and I have seen some battles anyway. I may be able to help if I stay."

I want to say something more, Yu Ling'er interjected: "No problem, sister Xiaoyue, I will protect you."

I was anxious: "There are only a few people in the first place, so we need to assign someone to protect her?"

Master also said: "It's fine to stay here. We'll see when the time comes. If it's really dangerous, then hide."

I shook my head secretly and had no choice but to go with her.This also explains two problems. One is that although Ning Xiaoyue has endured the test of life and death several times, she has not been intimidated, and has a spirit that is not afraid of hardship and death.Another one is that although she often hinders everyone, everyone still likes her very much, which shows that she is very popular.

After working all day, everyone didn't bother to eat, especially Xiaoyue and Master, who were already shaking with hunger.Now that we have a little free time, everyone hurriedly made a table of meals. At this time, we didn't care whether it was delicious or not. We all got together and had a full meal.

By the time we finished eating, it was almost dark.It also means that if Xiaosan takes action, he should start to be on guard now.

Master led us out of the house, and was going to go around the entrances and exits of several villages to see if the people arranged by the village chief were in place.

When I came to the west entrance of the village, I found that Daddy Douzi was standing guard at the intersection.Daddy Douzi was lying on the back of a mound of soil. When he saw us coming, he quickly stood up: "Master Yuan, Teacher Xiao, I'm here. Don't worry, I'll definitely be watching him." It seems that we saved Douzi , Daddy Douzi firmly believed in what we said.

I hastily stepped forward and said, "You can't do it all by yourself, we will come here when we are free."

Daddy Douzi said: "The village chief has arranged for several people. I am the first shift, and we are guarding here in shifts."

I saw Daddy Douzi holding a kitchen knife in his hand, and handed him a mahogany sword casually: "I have to take this at critical times." Daddy Douzi took it over, weighed it, and put it in his waist.

When we went to several other entrances and exits, we found that the situation was not optimistic. Although there were people guarding them, it was obvious that everyone was not in a high mood, and seemed to have some complaints about being arranged there.

The master hurriedly explained the importance to them again, and instructed them one by one, not only to beware of abnormal situations, but also to pay close attention to the place where the shadow powder is spread, and if you find a red light, immediately ring the gong.Because relatively speaking, ghosts are easier to sneak into the village.

On the way back, Master said to us: "Looks like these few points, we have to move around frequently to supervise and supervise them, otherwise it is easy to be taken advantage of by Xiao San and the others."

I said, "Why don't we arrange a shift, after all, we may not be able to stay up for a few days, and no one can bear it after a long time."

The master nodded and said: "We counted Xiaoyue, there are six people in total, and we also formed three shifts, from night to dawn, three time periods, and took turns to patrol."

Ning Xiaoyue ran to my side, apparently wanting to join my class.At this moment, Yuling'er shouted, "I'm in the same class as Sister Xiaoyue."

When Ning Xiaoyue heard this, she looked at me eagerly, but couldn't say anything.

Mu Zhuer looked aside and smirked, and I glared at him.

The master said: "Okay, Ling'er is more capable, let her take you with her. Let's go together, Wei Meng and I, Yang Zi and Mu Gun'er. Remember, don't act recklessly when you find the situation, you have to act immediately. Reporting. Especially you two, Yangzi, are relatively weak, and your task is to sound the gong as soon as you discover the enemy's situation."

After Master made arrangements, everyone went back to the dormitory to rest.Master said that if Xiaosan launched an attack, it would be more likely in the second half of the night, and the second half of the night would be more difficult, so he asked everyone if they could let him and Wei Meng be in the first shift in the early morning, and Mu Sticker and I in the first shift before dawn. Ning Xiaoyue and Yu Ling'er were naturally in the first class, and they would alternate shifts every day thereafter.Everyone agreed after hearing it.

Ning Xiaoyue and Yu Ling'er were in the first shift. After a brief tidying up, they went out to watch the night.The remaining four of us staggered in the house and took the time to sleep.

I fell into a deep sleep, and I didn't know how long the time had passed, when suddenly I felt someone calling me.I jumped up and stood up, picked up the mahogany sword, and asked before I opened my eyes, "Is there anything wrong?"

When I opened my eyes and found Master standing in front of me, I breathed a sigh of relief.The master laughed and scolded: "There is a fart situation, look at the way you sleep, if there is a situation, it is over, it is up to you two."

I gradually became sober, and nodded: "Oh, Master, have you finished your tour? Are you all right?"

The master said: "There is nothing wrong at the moment, but don't take it lightly. You and the stick have a look around one by one, so that everyone can be more vigilant."

I responded, and turned around to see that the wooden stick was so sleepy that it flowed out.I went up and pushed hard to wake him up.I pulled a wooden stick and picked out a lantern and walked out of the room.

After Wood Stick and I came out, we yawned at the same time for the first time, without speaking, and walked slowly towards several entrances and exits of the village.The village was very quiet at night, with occasional barking of dogs.

We walked to several ambush points, and found that the people on night duty had already changed shifts, and they were still in good spirits.We were swinging in the street with a lantern, when suddenly a wooden stick stabbed me, I was taken aback and glanced at the wooden stick.The wooden stick ignored me and kept looking forward.

I was startled, and followed his gaze to look forward, only to find a dark figure in front of me, walking slowly on the street.I thought to myself, in the middle of the night, who doesn't sleep at home and comes out to hang out.Could it be that the night watchman was negligent and let Xiaosan's ghost body in?

Wood stick and I looked at each other, maybe we felt that the other party was alone, and we didn't ring the gong, but followed behind quietly in unison.

Seeing what the black shadow meant, he didn't even notice that someone was following him behind, and he still walked forward unhurriedly.We were getting closer and closer. Suddenly, the black shadow paused, and then ran forward desperately.

The stick and I were a little caught off guard, so we hurriedly chased after him.The black figure seemed to be familiar with the route in the village, turning left and right, Wood Stick and I followed closely.

In this way, the three of us started a chase in the village.

As he was running, the wooden stick yelled softly: "Yangzi, I'll go around and block him." As he spoke, the wooden stick slanted and ran down a fork in the road. I can feel it clearly.I kept chasing after, and I was so tired that I almost collapsed at the end, but I didn't dare to relax at all, but it seemed that the black figure in front was also very tired, and the speed also slowed down significantly.

I can now conclude that the black figure in front is not a ghost, but a human being, because under the moonlight, his shadow is clearly visible.With this judgment, I am even more confident and determined to catch this person.They ran away when they saw us in the middle of the night, there must be something tricky inside.

The physical strength of me and that black shadow may have been close to the limit, and the speed slowed down. At this time, a wooden stick came out at the intersection in front of us, blocking the black shadow's way to death.

In this way, the three of us appeared on the same street at the same time, but we were strangled to death by me and the wooden stick at both ends, and the black shadow had no way to escape.Seeing that the situation was settled, the first action of the three of us was to put our hands on our knees, lower our heads, and gasp for breath.I was so tired that I coughed, spit a few mouthfuls of saliva, and cursed my mother in my heart.
