Zhao Feng then pulled out the guard steel knife from the weapon rack.

This knife is about four feet long, the tip of the knife is not bent much, and the weight center of the whole knife is relatively forward, which is suitable for chopping.

Waving his hand casually, listening to the sound of the blade breaking through the air, Zhao Feng felt quite satisfied.

It's a feeling of power.

Zhao Feng counted the torches, charms, herbs, copper bells and other small objects, and confirmed that the objects were all complete, so he put them in his pockets to ensure that he could take them out and use them as soon as he needed them.

Next, he sat down, wiped the steel knife with a cloth, and stroked the cold breath from the knife, and his heart calmed down a little.

When the sound of a gong came, Zhao Feng put the knife into the sheath, got up and walked out.

This is the sound of the gong that is called, it rings once every ten breaths, a total of three times, and those who do not arrive will be punished!

Out of the rest room, Zhao Feng could see that people from all over the barracks came out one after another, converging under the cypress trees in front of the battlefield.

The cypress trees at night swayed and rustled in the gray moonlight, and a group of white-robed people had gathered under the shadows of the black-gray dancing trees, and torches on both sides lit up the whole field.

"Meet here on the evening shift. A white-robed man stood on the high platform in front of him and shouted loudly. Judging from the dress, it has a golden silk line, and he is also a deputy chief of guards.

Zhao Feng walked over, found his position, stood in it, and quietly listened to the speech of the person above.

Surrounded by white-robed guards with knives on their bodies, standing quietly like this, there was a special aura permeating.

"The three gongs have passed, the team leader, roll call. The deputy chief of the guard on the stage gave an order.

After a commotion, there were four squad leaders who each reported the number.

"It's good that no one is late today. The deputy chief of the guard nodded.

"This is your first patrol, and there are some things you have to say. The deputy chief of the guard looked around, and then began to speak at length.

"I'll go, why does this guy talk so much?" Zhao Feng stood below, feeling very bored.

"You're Zhao Feng, right?" a guard next to him glanced at Zhao Feng a few times and asked.

"Yes, are you?" Zhao Feng was a little embarrassed, he had been in this escort team for so long, and he didn't pay much attention to the others, so except for a few people, he was not very impressed.

"I'm Wang Chao, ranked thirty-seventh. The guard chuckled quietly.

"I've asked about the recent shift, and I've been with you for the whole month. When the time comes, it's up to you to do anything. ”

"How can we say clearly now that we can rely on this or not? Everyone helps each other. Zhao Feng smiled back, but sighed in his heart.

Even the few people at the bottom of the rankings have their own special features, no, Zhao Feng has nowhere to ask about these gossip.

The deputy head of the guard had a long lecture, but it was over.

In the end, everyone was divided into four squads, and the squad leader was responsible for arranging people to conduct night patrols.

Zhao Feng really got together with this Wang Chao, and under the leadership of an old guard, he embarked on a night patrol.

It was nearly late at night, the mine was empty, the fence in the distance was locked, and there was no light in the pit, like a dark abyss.

The old guard was in front, with a torch in his hand, and he did not make a sound, but walked forward step by step.

In the distance, there are sparks, and it is the other squads walking along their patrol paths.

Farther away, it was pitch black, and no one knew what was sleeping in it, and the flashing green and red light made it even more difficult to understand the meaning.

Zhao Feng swallowed his saliva, reached into his arms with his right hand, and touched the talisman bag that was placed close to him. Feeling the coolness of the whole world in the middle of the night made him a little uneasy.

However, with the spell in his body, his teammates by his side, and the weapon in his body, he gradually relaxed his heart.

"In these years, I have no money and can only be hard. Zhao Feng was relieved and made a choice, he had to face the risk.

"What I mean is that those who have money and power have all found their way into the day shift. You say, there are forty-two of us, and we all said that we were all going to work the night shift, but it turned out that there were only thirty-one people who entered the night shift, where can we be reasonable?" Wang Chao heard Zhao Feng's words on the side, and he was also stirred up emotional.

The night shift is a position with high risks and not many benefits.

So a group of new guards fought a big battle in terms of relationships without showing it.

The winners entered the sequence of the day shift, and the rest had to endure the night shift.

"However, since the connections are not as good as those people, now I just hope to be able to do this well and protect myself. Zhao Feng noticed Wang Chao's dissatisfaction and said casually.

"You have a wide heart, that's your own idea, other people, don't think so, why do you have to endanger me, and benefit him?" Wang Chao still insisted on his own thoughts.

"Yes, that's what you're saying. Zhao Feng didn't want to argue with this person.

Most of the people who work at night are those who are not very well-off. It's not that they can't see that the day class has a higher future and a wider space for network development, but that they are born with a lower starting point than others, and those connections are as ethereal as unfathomable.

Those who have the ability choose the daytime, and the rest is the night shift, since they can't compete, they still think about fairness and the like, which is a bit of a point to grasp the point.

The old guard in front listened to the two chatting behind him, and he didn't stop it, he still walked silently, but a smile came out of his face.

"I'm still young, at this time, I still think about these things, but I didn't think about it, something really happened, my life is gone, what else is there to say. ”

The conversation died down, and the team of three moved forward silently, only the torches in the hands of the old guards crackled.

Soon, the old guard took the three of them to the patrol area, and after checking the chains at the entrance and the torches on the wall, the old guard turned to Zhao Feng and the others and said.

"I'll only take you through this patrol route once, and then get up at least every hour in the evening and walk the rest, and do whatever you want. ”

"Of course, don't think about cutting corners, there must be overseers here, and from time to time there will be dogs to check the situation of night patrols, of course, I am not afraid to tell you directly, most of the time these dogs choose to come when it is just dark, or when the sky is just dawning, they will not be so diligent in the middle of the night. ”

Hearing the word dog overseer, a smile appeared on Zhao Feng's face.

But apparently this smile was misunderstood by the old guard, glared at Zhao Feng, and continued.

"But it's part of the way to deal with those dogs. Our mine, not to mention looking at a lot of people, and there are ghosts at night. There are still people who don't want to die to dig in the mines at night or take items that they hide during the day. ”

"In general, if the garbage really comes to the mine to steal, it will definitely be in the middle of the night, when you are most sleepy. I've been patrolling here for more than two years, and I've killed more than a dozen of them. “

"The mountain people in this place are all wild dogs, you all know it, but if there is a mistake in the mine, it is that the dog smells fishy, and everyone wants to come to you to bite it. When something happens, none of you on the night shift will be able to run, but don't work for months in vain, and you won't get a single point of money but a lot of debt. At that time, hehe, don't say I didn't warn you. ”

"Yes, thank you for your teachings. "The master is right. The two of them bowed their hands at the same time, and different words expressed the same mood.

These are the lessons of blood and tears, without a little bit of groping by the predecessors before, they can't figure it out at all, and now this old guard can tell it all, which is already quite good for the two of them.

Especially after the old guard finished saying something in front of the mine, the two of them shuttled through the mine, telling Zhao Feng where they were easy to hide people, where they were easy to encounter ghosts, how to avoid being discovered by those dog overseers, and how to run the fastest way...

When the three of them had finished their patrol and returned to the barracks, the old guard finally pulled them and said:

"The rest of the time is up to you, be careful not to get caught by those dog overseers, you will still patrol with me for the past four days, one direction every night, and then you two will do it yourself. ”

"Yes. "No problem. Zhao Feng and Wang Chao glanced at each other and nodded.

The old guard walked back to his dormitory, undressed and unloaded his equipment, covered the quilt, and sighed

"Young people just work well. ”
