Chapter 18: Night Talk
Compared with Meng Guoqing's dreams, Xiao Chen didn't dream, but he slept extremely comfortably, and it was already dark when he woke up. He was called up by Zhang Wei, because the seven executors were divided into five groups, which changed every two hours to guard the door, the three senior executors were all in a group of individuals, Huang Xu and Zhang Qian were in a group, as for Xiao Chen, he was in a group with Meng Guoqing, and it was Xiao Chen's turn here, it was already the fourth group, and it was now ten o'clock in the evening.
Xiao Chen and they only need to guard the door until the early hours of the morning, they can be replaced, and then they will be handed over to Heizi, and then continue to rotate from Zhang Qian and Huang Xu.
Xiao Chen didn't expect that he would let him sleep for six hours in one breath, it seems that he still has too little experience, senior executors like Zhang Wei and Heizi generally don't sleep so dead like Xiao Chen, even if there are ghosts who sneak attack while they are asleep, they will basically not succeed, but they can still sleep well, this is the role of experience!
That's not to say they only need light sleep to regain lost energy, the main reason is because they know how to conserve their energy! When confronted by ghosts, they will be preoccupied, but during the safe period, they will do everything they can to ensure that their energy is not wasted! I don't know if this is what God can do, the most important thing is to experience more, only when you have more experience will you know how to allocate your energy reasonably, Xiao Chen is still too young now!
"Okay, Brother Zhang, you go to sleep first, I'll just call Lao Meng." Seeing that Zhang Wei wanted to call Meng Guoqing after waking him up, Xiao Chen said to Zhang Wei through the consciousness transmitter, although he had calculated Zhang Wei once before, but that was mainly the meaning of the sunspot, after all, the two of them came out of the same cursed island, Xiao Chen still hoped that Zhang Wei could live. As for Heizi's statement that Zhang Wei had betrayed his teammates before to protect himself, Xiao Chen believed that what Heizi said would not be groundless. But this kind of thing still has to be discovered by one's own eyes, what others say is floating clouds, and this is a cursed world! In order to survive, humans can abandon a qiē! What's more, it's just a mess by the lake?
As soon as Xiao Chen thought of this, he was very glad that he had joined Island 33 after entering the cursed world! You know, in the cursed world, there are really very few cursed islands where all the executors like Island Thirty-Three work together instead of stabbing each other! Although Island 33 is only on the surface, secretly like Kuroko said that Zhang Wei may do this, but this is already ten million times better than other cursed islands that even slaughter the executors of the island on the island for the sake of cursed things!
Moreover, there is also an Oriental Xiaobai on Island 33. Unconsciously, Xiao Chen thought of Dongfang Xiaobai, the girl with a pure heart like an angel. Although her soul has now been eroded by evil spirits, causing her personality to change, Xiao Chen thinks that this is a good thing! Because it is impossible for an angel to survive in hell!
But Xiao Chen quickly thought that Dongfang Xiaobai was likely to be devoured by the evil spirit in the end because of this erosion, and eventually replace him and become a new Dongfang Xiaobai! But at that time, I'm afraid that Dongfang Xiaobai will completely become an evil spirit! An incomparably evil spirit!
No way! I can't allow that to happen! Xiao Chen clenched his fists and secretly made up his mind. Then, he walked directly to Lao Meng's side, woke him up, and the two went out of the cave together and began the first round of goalkeeping. After all, no matter what you decide to do or how to do it, you need to live first, otherwise it will only be a fantasy.
Xiao Chen stood outside the cave, feeling the cool breeze blowing, and couldn't help but feel a shock to his spirit, and the sleepiness he had just woken up from disappeared a lot. Meng Guoqing also followed his example and stood beside him, enjoying this moment of tranquility.
After standing for a while, Xiao Chen walked to the entrance of the cave and sat down, took out a cigarette and began to smoke. He was originally a non-smoker, but his destiny Li Liang was a smoker. In order to make himself look more like Li Liang, and also to mention a pick-me-up, Xiao Chen smoked a cigarette.
Seeing Xiao Chen start smoking, Meng Guoqing walked to his side and sat down, stretched out his hand, and said, "Xiaoliang, give me one." ”
Xiao Chen naturally couldn't refuse Li Chengfeng, who was an uncle, so he gave Meng Guoqing a cigarette, lit it with his own hands, and then took a deep breath and slowly spit out a smoke ring. Neither of them spoke.
At this time, in Xiao Chen's consciousness, Meng Guoqing's voice came: "Xiao Chen, do you say that they are idle, they have to change the guard every two hours, so that I was called up before I woke up, and I may not be able to fall asleep when I go back in a while." ”
"Don't complain, there is a reason why the guard changes every two hours, otherwise no one would want to change the guard so frequently." Xiao Chen comforted Meng Guoqing lightly.
"What is the reason? I can't see any reason for it, and I want me to say that it's just right to change the guard every four hours! Meng Guoqing said.
"If you think about it, our changing of the guard is to make sure that everyone can rest at ease and don't need to worry. But after a long time, the people who are guarding the outside will definitely not be able to concentrate on the attention, after all, it is very laborious to concentrate for a long time, so that the executor who guards outside may not be able to guard the door, and the executor who is resting inside will also worry that the people outside are not good at guarding, and they can't rest well. Xiao Chen analyzed Meng Guoqing.
"Well, yes, two hours is very reasonable." Meng Guoqing nodded in agreement.
"It's not just that, you calculate, we will keep it until zero o'clock and change the sunspots, and the sunspots will be changed to Huang Xu and Zhang Qian until two o'clock. Since it was summer, it was relatively early to dawn, and it was already dark at two o'clock, which was very advantageous for the two newcomers. Because although zombies are a tangible curse, the way zombies move is to use space, just like the last time I was sneak attacked, although that zombie was only a very low-level zombie, but it happened to move next to me, and attacked me directly, if you hadn't saved me, I would have died there, and I would have liked you for it. Xiao Chen said to Meng Guoqing.
"Okay, don't be so polite, both of us are newcomers from the same mission world, and it's right to help each other."
Xiao Chen heard Meng Guoqing say this, and he didn't call it true, just keep the other party's kindness in mind, and help where you can. Then, Xiao Chen continued: "As soon as the morning dawns, it is easier to find zombies in advance, and on the other hand, we will suffer a little bit." ”
"What? Did we lose? No, how can they do that? I'll go find them to reschedule! Although Meng Guoqing is in his fifties, he is still a little impulsive, not to mention his own interests.
"Okay, old Meng, don't be impulsive." Xiao Chen was a little helpless, he hadn't finished speaking, this old Meng was about to rush over and reason with others, "Old Meng, you sit down first, we still have to act, we can't reveal the identity of the executor, otherwise the power of the curse will be deducted." And this goalkeeping mission was arranged by Kuroko, and you should believe that he won't harm the two of us. When Meng Guoqing heard Xiao Chen say this, he sat down and said, "Ah, it turned out that I was wrong, and I thought it was a zombie appearing." Meng Guoqing said this to avoid losing the power of the curse, after all, it was very unreasonable for him to stand up suddenly and silently.
Seeing Meng Guoqing sit down again, Xiao Chen continued: "The reason why the two of us are arranged at this time is mainly because of me. ”
"Because of you?" Meng Guoqing asked puzzled, "What's the matter with you?" ”
"It's not because of my cursed eye!" Xiao Chen said with some tears and laughter, he didn't expect that this advantage of his would become his candidate to guard the door in the dark. Otherwise, this candidate Wei Fanghua is obviously more suitable, after all, she is a senior executor with rich experience, which is far beyond Xiao Chen's reach.
"It's because of my cursed eyes! You should be aware that most parasitic curses have some properties, which are mainly related to the part of the body that they parasitize. For example, Kuroko's Shadow Hand is a parasitic curse that lives on his hands, making Kuroko's hands indestructible, and they can't be cut off even with a knife! And my cursed eye, in addition to coming out to see ghosts, there is also a point that can see dark things! It is because of this characteristic that the two of us are arranged to guard the goal during this time period. ”
This time, Meng Guoqing didn't say that he was going back to settle accounts with those executors, but began to envy Xiao Chenlai. You know, this dark vision is a god-level skill in the cursed world! Those ghosts and things often appear in dark places, and then suddenly appear, taking the life of the executor, Xiao Chen has the ability of dark vision, and will no longer be afraid of such a sneak attack, in addition to the fact that ghosts can be seen, although it is not as good as the shadow hand of the sunspot that can tear the space, but the shadow hand is a cursed thing with a name! Although the Cursed Eye has a name, it may be more effective in the Cursed Quest than ordinary cursed things with names!
But Meng Guoqing was only envious for a while, his own bloodthirsty bloodline was extremely rebellious, as long as he could develop it, it was almost certain that he would become a high-level executor!
Meng Guoqing and Xiao Chen talked for a while, and the main topic revolved around how to survive, but because both of them were newcomers and didn't have much experience in this area, they didn't talk for long.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Meng Guoqing finally started his true purpose, that is, he had promised Zhang Wei to ease the relationship between him, Heizi and Xiao Chen. He is not familiar with the sunspot, so he can only regard Xiao Chen as a breakthrough, after all, the two are newcomers who came out alive from the same mission world!
