296. Decay

On the barning field, the young men of the village came here one by one and greeted Zhong Erzhu, who was sitting in the center.

"Erzhu, I heard that you hit a money leopard and sold it for ten taels of silver, it's really amazing."

"Brother Erzhu, when you called me here, you said that you would teach me to hunt, didn't you?"

Ahem, Zhong Erzhu saw that the people were almost here, cleared his throat and said, "I called everyone here today because there is a big event to announce to you, I organized a wilt meeting, and I want to ask you if you would like to join." ”

Wow, twenty or so young people were in an uproar. Although he had said hello before, Zhong Erzhu's direct announcement was still unexpected by everyone. For a while, no one said they wanted to join, and they discussed it one after another.

"What are the benefits of joining the blight?" Seeing that the atmosphere was not warm, the arranged Tuo immediately began to play a role, guiding others to think about the benefits.

Zhong Erzhu smiled at Nato and said loudly: "As long as you enter the Blighting Society, you will immediately have a monthly salary of one or two silver, and you will also teach everyone how to learn to hunt." ”

Hearing such lucrative conditions, someone at the bottom was suddenly tempted and asked, "Is it a method like yours to obtain intact prey without weapons?" ”

Zhong Erzhu said loudly: "That's right, that's it!" ”

As soon as these words came out, they couldn't be closed, and soon the entire village knew that the Zhong family was going to hold a group training and vigorously recruit members. Many old men in their forties and fifties came and said they wanted to participate. However, these overage guys were all rejected and caused a lot of trouble.

There are not too many people in the small village, and many relatives come to the door to complain about Zhong Erzhu. I don't know how to deal with people. It's very emotional.

But after an in-depth conversation with my second son yesterday. Zhong Laohan knew that the withering would be very important, and he would not accept some messy rotten people to enter, so he did not let go. Besides, he can't take care of his second son's affairs at all.

Zhong Erzhu didn't know about the chaotic situation at home, and said to the young people who were willing to join the Blight Society: "Since you are willing to join, there is one condition, that is, you must listen to me, and there can be no resistance. ”

The young men on the threshing floor looked at each other. Some people did not say a word, but stood silently in place.

Some snorted: "Damn, Zhong Erzhu, you want to take us as your subordinates?" Why, is it just one tael of silver? Lao Tzu is no longer serving! With that, he turned around and left, and strode out of the barn.

There was not just one person who left, but more than half, and it wasn't long before only nine people arrived and stayed on the barnyard.

Zhong Erzhu asked the nine people, "Have you thought about it, do you still want to participate in the blight meeting?" ”

He looked at it, these people are either friends who play well, or people whose families are not very good and need money urgently. Of course the previous one. Duan Fei is also in this, and they are hardcore brothers.

"We agreed to join the Blight. will listen to your command. The people on the threshing floor said one after another.

Zhong Erzhu nodded and said, "Then now let's go to the house and get an axe, go to the mountain to cut down a tree, and everyone must cut down at least a big tree the size of a bucket." ”

"Erzhu, what is this for? It's nothing to chop wood, if you want to cut down trees, you must get the consent of the Huang family, that mountain is their forest. If you are found stealing, you will have your leg broken. ”

Not to mention others, even Zhong Erzhu's Fa Xiao Duan Fei didn't quite agree.

Zhong Erzhu thought of Daxian's prediction when he explained the plan, and these people really didn't want to go, so he said excitedly: "You just said that you would listen to my orders, why did you break your promise now?" Those who don't go can go, when my one or two pieces of silver a month are gray-haired? ”

So three more people left, and only six remained. They gritted their teeth and said, "Let's go home and get the axes." But if you can't get the money at the end of the month, don't blame us for not playing with you. ”

In this remote village, it is not easy to find a job for one or two taels of silver a month, and many people can only get a few hundred wen a month.

Zhong Erzhu breathed a sigh of relief, he was afraid that it would be too embarrassing if there was no one left, and six people were not bad. According to Daisen, the people who are left after the elimination of speculators are irons worth cultivating, and it is better than letting people learn the ability to rebel.

After everyone else left, Duan Fei walked quickly to Zhong Erzhu's side, looked at him deeply, and asked suspiciously, "Erzhu, what are you going to do here?" ”

Zhong Erzhu actually wanted to say that I didn't know what it meant to cut down trees, but Daxian was told like that, and I could only do it. But Daxian is a secret, he doesn't even plan to tell his father, let alone others.

All he could say was, "You don't believe me? ”

"Well, of course I believe in you. If I hadn't gone to a new school, I would have thought you were possessed by a monster, and it would have changed a lot. Duan Fei sighed.

Zhong Erzhu's heart jumped violently, and he almost screamed: I am not possessed by the Great Immortal, but I am learning the spells of the Great Immortal.

Half an hour later, Zhong Erzhu led six people up the mountain and into the woods. To say that everyone has been to this forest many times, but they only cut down dead branches to make firewood, and they have never touched those big trees.

The thought of cutting down a large tree with dense foliage makes my heart unconsciously overflow with excitement. Under the influence of hormones, the previous fears and worries were all left behind.

Zhong Erzhu led everyone over the two hillsides, deep into the woods, and almost crossed the border to other villages before stopping.

He stuffed a small wooden plaque in the hands of each of them, the size of a matchbox, and the material was also ordinary camphor wood, which was threaded with string. However, it is engraved with mysterious and complex symbols, which looks like the face of a fierce beast, giving people a very unusual feeling.

"Hang this wooden sign on your body and don't drop it. In case you lose it, you must tell me as soon as possible, and the money will be deducted. ”

When Zhong Erzhu said the last sentence, his tone was very stern. It shows that he is not talking about playing, but for real.

Seeing that his face was serious, the other six forgot to ask for the purpose of the wooden card, and hung it around their necks in confusion.

The sound of axes clashing with the trunk stopped, and the logger cut down most of the notched trunk with a kick.

Squeak! A large tree was cut down and fell to the ground with a loud noise, startling the birds in the woods.

Zhong Erzhu suddenly felt a cool breath flowing out of his chest, swam his whole body and then returned to his chest.

This is the mana that the great immortal said, why is it cold and swishing? He thought to himself, and he couldn't resist the urge to give it a try, and cast the Rotten Spell on a large tree two meters away.

On the healthy and normal brown bark, a gray-black rose to a width of more than a foot, and then the dense bark became loose to the naked eye, and the smell of decay wafted in the air, like dead branches and leaves that had been soaked for a long time.

"Erzhu, what did you do!" Duan Fei said out loud in surprise. (To be continued.) )
