After a few seconds of silence, the door slowly opened, the shaft creaking and squeaking because of its age, and then a young apprentice in simple protective gear walked from behind the door.

The apprentice had no expression on his face, and after he saw that it was Sun Weifeng, he made a simple bow, took away "Hua Dan" with an expressionless face, and took off the head of the hammerhead bat, handed it to Sun Weifeng, and then bowed mechanically again. Almost all the people in the headquarters had this expression, they had long been numb to the surrounding environment, once upon a time Sun Weifeng was like them, these apprentices did not have any freedom, only after leaving the school had some free time.

With the head of a hammerhead bat in one hand, Sun Weifeng circled around the decommissioned residential area a few times, turned a few more corners, and did not see a single pedestrian on the road for the whole stretch of the road, and then came to the entrance of the wooden cable car. At the entrance, an old but sturdy retired demon envoy nodded to Sun Weifeng, and Sun Weifeng responded with the same action to indicate that he wanted to take the cable car.

The retired Demon Sealer walked over to a winch, grabbed the joystick with both hands and shook it, and as you could imagine from his movements, the weight of the winch was very heavy. After a short moment, the wall on the side of a house slowly opened, and a rickety cable car emerged from the darkness. As the cable car reached the entrance, the retired envoy stopped what he was doing and whistled loudly into the dark residential area, and after a while, another group of old and sturdy retired envoys came out of the darkness, they had come to rotate the work of the winch.

Sun Weifeng opened the door of the wooden cable car and sat in, although the stability of the cable car is really not very good, but the interior is still very tidy, and there are cushions on the seats, which is quite exquisite, after all, it is mainly for the elders to ride.

Just as Sun Weifeng was about to close his eyes and rest, a voice outside that didn't know who it was: "Wait a minute, wait a minute...... Wait a minute!"

The retired demon envoy lowered his hands from the rocker, stretched out his arm to stop the man, and the man took out a roll of letters from a tube on his waist and handed it to the retired demon envoy, who roughly browsed the contents of the letter and let him pass, thinking that the letter was a letter from the return of the safari post.

Just when Sun Weifeng wondered who the person was, he entered the cable car, and under the kerosene lamp above the inside of the cable car, Sun Weifeng saw the other party's face clearly. It was a round face with a pair of small eyes that were almost slit, a large nose with bulging cheeks on either side, a left earlobe that had been lost for some reason, and a small mouth at the end. Although this person's appearance is indeed ugly, Sun Weifengqun feels very kind, because this person is Zheng Yang, the senior brother who graduated from the school a year earlier than him.

Zheng Yang also showed a look of surprise when he saw that it was Sun Weifeng sitting there: "I really didn't expect it to be such a coincidence." ”

Sun Weifeng smiled in return, and just when he wanted to get up and sit on Zheng Yang's side, the cable car started, and a sudden swing made Sun Weifeng sit back again. Zheng Yang laughed: "You, just sit on your side, yo! Hammerhead bat, isn't it", Zheng Yang said as he looked at the hammerhead bat on the ground that shook as the cable car swayed.

Sun Weifeng replied: "Well, this was killed near a small village in Bailing Province, but I don't have anything to talk about, but brother, what have you experienced this year?"

When Zheng Yang heard Sun Weifeng's words, his face showed an excited look, but he frowned again in an instant: "Alas, don't mention it, because I graduated a year earlier than you, so I also led an apprentice a year earlier than you, and one of the tasks this year is to take the apprentice exam." ”

Sun Weifeng could also imagine the result when he heard Zheng Yang's tone, but he still asked tentatively: "That...... Did he pass the exam?"

Zheng Yang said: " Hey, don't you really say it, the test goal of that kid's exam is really simple, it's an inferior species, you also know that thing is easy to deal with, that kid passed the exam very easily, and you also know that the skin of the inferior species will crack as soon as the dry sun shines, and that thing can't be used as equipment, so I bought him a set of soldier's equipment in the thrift market, it's better than nothing, and then the inferior species, the problem behind that thing is big, there must be a vampire behind the inferior species, and the vampire must be eliminated, otherwise there will be other victims who will become inferior species, so the above means that we should be dealing with the problem of vampires......"

Zheng Yang deliberately paused and looked at Sun Weifeng's expression, only to see Sun Weifeng looking at him expectantly, so Zheng Yang smiled bitterly and continued: "So, he and I have been tracking the whereabouts of that vampire in Wuhuang Province all year long, and also solved some other things by the way, several times we were about to catch that vampire, but every time he escaped, and finally we followed the clues all the way to an abandoned bunker in the desert, and guess what? The basement of that bunker is full of vampires!" ”

"What!?organized vampires?in...... Sang Empire?" Sun Weifeng shouted in surprise.

Zheng Yang said: "That's right, a whole group of vampires! Where did the apprentice and I dare to go in, and hurriedly returned to the nearest city to report the situation, but we didn't expect to be followed, a small group of vampires took advantage of the night with dozens of bad people to attack the city wall, although there were more people in our city, but the weapons of those soldiers defending the city were made of steel, and there was almost no harm to the vampires, and the result was that the group of vampires occupied the city wall, and the soldiers kept retreating, and we could only take advantage of the chaos to kill a few bad people, and we were all about to despair, but a group of action teams sent by Silent Words came to support, God knows how they got the news, we killed them all the way back, and then it was over, They want us to leave this matter alone, I think it's okay, the year is going to end, and we can go home if we leave it to those guys. ”

Sun Weifeng lowered his head slightly, digesting Zheng Yang's speech just now: vampires began to become organized again, and even began to dare to take the initiative to attack the city, and the silent faction that he had never seen before also began to take the initiative to attack, and I am afraid that the world will ignite the flames of war again.

Zheng Yang saw that Sun Weifeng was thinking about things by himself with his head down, and his basket was not empty, so he simply said to himself: "Later, we wanted to take a shortcut and return to the headquarters as soon as possible, so we decided to go through the swamp of Shencang Province, but my apprentice was actually sucked dry of blood by a man-eating vine, hmph, he was not sucked to death by a vampire but was killed by a plant that couldn't move." ”

Zheng Yang angrily smashed the seat, and the cable car also shook: "That, where are you going next year?"

Sun Weifeng was stunned for a moment and replied: "I don't know very well, it's probably one of the three southern provinces." ”

Zheng Yang said: "South...... When I passed through Shencang Province, I heard that there have been rebels in the three southern provinces recently, and it seems that they want to overthrow the emperor, I think they are all crazy, if you go to the south, you have to be careful, people are not as easy to deal with as monsters. ”

Hearing the last sentence, Sun Weifeng nodded approvingly: "Actually, what I'm most worried about is the matter of giving the apprentice exam, I don't want to see him die with my own eyes, but I can't do anything......"

Zheng Yang kicked Sun Weifeng with his foot: "You are worried that it is useless, if the apprentice dies, his skills are not good, and if he lives, he is unlucky, there will never be a good side for us, just take care of yourself!"

Sun Weifeng understood the truth in Zheng Yang's words, but he just didn't like that sentence, and in the end, Sun Weifeng had to pretend to understand and nodded.

"Well, I'm almost there, I'm ready to go down. With that, Zheng Yang came to the door and opened the door, preparing to jump onto a platform that he was about to arrive. There is no fixed time for when the cable car stops, and it will only stop when the retired Demon Sealer is tired of changing shifts or reaching the end, so if you want to get off the train halfway, you must be ready when you are almost at the platform and jump off when you pass the platform.

When he arrived at the platform, Zheng Yang said: "Bye-bye", and jumped down without looking back.

Now there is only Sun Weifeng in the car, and he is about to arrive at the station soon, Sun Weifeng closed his eyes and pondered: I will meet the grandmaster in a while, where will he let me go, and will he arrange an apprentice for me, what does the apprentice look like, what kind of monster is his exam target, can he survive, and what can I do if he dies......

While thinking about these messy things, the cable car stopped, Sun Weifeng lifted the head of the hammerhead bat that rolled to the side and got out of the car, at this time the night was getting even late, and some of the lights in the stone pillars on both sides of the steps had been extinguished, and only the Grandmaster Pavilion on the top floor was still lit. A gust of cold wind blowing on the high mountain made Sun Weifeng have goosebumps, looking at the lanterns of the distant people under the mountain, Sun Weifeng realized that the cold winter is not over.
