Chapter 31 Patrol
The people who came out of the mist were dressed differently, and the weapons in their hands were also different. There were various weapons such as long spears, short knives, long knives, long swords, and standing melon hammers. cloth bag.
These people are all members of the patrol team. Most of them are young people, and there are some middle-aged people in the crowd.
Originally, only short-lived species with a lifespan of less than thirty-five years old were required to join the patrol force, but it was not surprising that there were middle-aged people on the patrol team. Even Lu Kui was probably over thirty-five years old. People join patrols on their own volition.
The reason is that the patrols are paid handsomely.
The faces of more than 30 team members were deeply tired.
"The patrol team is divided into two shifts: white duty and night duty. You don't need to patrol the field at night. You only need to be alert everywhere in the village. When you are on white duty, you must patrol the field during the day. The two shifts will exchange each other at regular intervals. Strictly speaking, the monsters will be more active at night, and the number of attempts to attack the village will be large."
"So even if you don't need to patrol in the field at night, the danger is higher than that of Shibai. The four of you are all newcomers. The newcomers only need to be Shibai for the time being. After you are familiar with them, you will be able to exchange patrols in the same night as they do..." Lu Kui looked at the returning team members and explained to the four Zhou Fans.
These Zhou Fans have already heard from Lu Kui, and he found some more interesting things from these players, "Why are they separated by a distance of six or seven feet?"
The returning team members are all in pairs, keeping a clear distance from the others.
"Have you noticed?" Lu Kui glanced at Zhou Fandao in surprise. "When patrolling, they are divided into two groups. When each group returns, it is separated from the other groups to avoid unnecessary danger."
Zhou Fan's face changed slightly. Lu Kui meant that the team members who came back from patrol would also become dangerous. Could it be that there are still ways to hide those strange things on people's bodies?
"Let's go, let's go over." Lu Kui didn't explain any further, but walked towards the middle of the field.
The four of Zhou Fan quickly followed.
The team members who returned from the patrol were still scattered in groups of two in the circles formed by the white and gray circles, each with a radius of about one meter.
Zhou Fan had noticed the white circle on the flat ground before, and now he understood the function of the white circle.
Lu Kui and the four of them stood under the guard drum and watched the patrol members.
Lu Kui took a look and found that the number of people was not small, and shouted loudly: "Shangfu."
The patrol members each took out a yellow paper talisman from the yellow cloth bag around their waists, and they stuck the talisman on themselves.
"This is a test talisman. It can detect whether the patrol team members are possessed by monsters or infected with a curse. If there is a problem, the talisman will burn on its own." Lu Kui checked the yellow talisman on the patrol team members. While explaining to the four of Zhou Fan.
Apparently this is part of the induction training.
"Has the test talisman ever failed?" Zhou Fan asked Lu Kui.
When Zhou Fan was in the police force before, he knew that if there was a problem with the guns and ammunition during the mission, he would probably lose his life. He had to be sure of the safety of the talisman.
"Invalid?" Lu Kui sneered, "The test talisman is only a low-grade yellow talisman, and slightly more advanced quirks may not be effective. This is just an inspection procedure for low-level quirks."
Zhou Fan frowned slightly and said, "If it fails, what will the team do?"
With a wave of Lu Kui's hand, the inspected patrol members left the circle and stood in a line, while those who had not been inspected waited patiently.
"If it is particularly powerful, the Weigu will definitely respond. This is why we arrange the inspection next to the Weigu. Of course, it is undeniable that there are strange things that are particularly good at concealment. It depends on luck. The patrol team is not absolute. Safe way!" Lu Kui said in a deep voice.
Zhou Fan was silent and didn't ask any more questions. He knew that Lu Kui was telling the truth. If the patrol team really had an effective way to deal with the monsters, the casualty rate would not be so high.
This inspection is simple and quickly over.
"You can go back, remember to come on time at night." Lu Kui clapped his hands.
The patrol members on duty at night soon dispersed, and none of them paid attention to the four newcomers Zhou Fan, because the mortality rate of the newcomers who joined the team was the highest. Getting acquainted.
There was still one person who stayed on duty at night. This was a middle-aged man. He was burly and his eyebrows were shrugged, which made him look a bit funny.
He glanced at the four Zhou Fans, stretched his waist and smiled at Lu Kui: "Brother Lu, are these four new players?"
Sanqiu Village is not small. If they don't live in the same corner, they may not be able to recognize all the people of the same generation, let alone those of the next generation.
Lu Kui nodded and said lightly: "This is Wu Tianba, your captain Wu, the patrol team is divided into two shifts, day and night. Each shift will be led by a deputy captain. Now Captain Wu leads the night shift."
After Lu Kui finished speaking, he briefly said the names of the four Zhou Fans.
Wu Tianba didn't care about the other three newcomers, he just looked at Zhou Fan.
Zhou Fan felt a little strange in his heart, he could detect that Wu Tianba looked at him with a hint of interest.
Wu Tianba noticed that Zhou Fan's eyes were looking at each other, he looked away a little at will, fell on the old dog at Zhou Fan's feet, and said, "Zhou Fan, the old dog in Lao Wangtou's family is very good, but don't waste it. ."
After Wu Tianba said this, he said to Lu Kui, "Then I'll go back first."
"Yeah." Lu Kui nodded.
Wu Tianba walked towards the village.
Lu Kui looked at Wu Tianba's back and suddenly asked, "Zhou Fan, are you familiar with Lao Wu?"
Zhou Fan shook his head and said, "I don't know him well, but I don't know if he knows my father."
Lu Kui didn't ask any more, he just said: "You four wait, the person who is worth the white will be here soon."
Zhou Fan glanced at Lu Kui and then at Wu Tianba, who was far away. From the simple conversation and expressions of the two captains, Zhou Fan could keenly feel that the relationship between Lu Kui and Wu Tianba was not the same. Well, it can even be said that it is a little bad.
Zhou Fan thought of this and sighed in his heart. It seems that the Sanqiu Village patrol team is not stable.
After a while, the patrol members on duty came over.
Lu Kui no longer took Zhou Fan and the other four, but went to arrange work for these patrol members.
After the work was arranged, Lu Kui and a thin young man came over.
The young man's face was stern, and his eyes were like ice, shooting at Zhou Fan's four newcomers.
"This is a deep wrinkle, the current patrol team's deputy captain." Lu Kui introduced.
Lu Kui's words surprised Thin Monkey, Li Erlu, and He Cao. There were many middle-aged people in the team, but the second vice-captain of the team was actually a young man.
Only Zhou Fan has no accident. He already knew that the vice captain has nothing to do with age. Whether he can be the vice captain depends on whether he has crossed that threshold!
