Stealing the protagonist's chance at the beginning

But this time, they had just assembled, before they had time to leave the village, they encountered a little accident.

——The players appeared!

Seeing such a big action by the NPC villagers, dozens of people are about to leave the village, and the alarmed players naturally don't want to miss this "sudden plot".They gathered around one after another, clamoring to go down the mountain with the village patrol team.

These extremely enthusiastic players caused the extraordinary Wei Jinpeng who led the team to have a headache.

He was expressionless, citing "dangerous" as an excuse, and rejected the player's request one after another.

Xu Fei came by coincidence, it happened to be the scene where the players surrounded Wei Jinpeng, trying to make him change his mind.

"Let me go!"

"We aliens are not afraid of danger!"

"I also want to mine for the village. I don't want to be paid, I just want to send a task!"

The players' stalking made Wei Jinpeng feel helpless.

Seeing that the number of players is increasing, he can only say: "It's not that I don't allow you to go out, but the range that the talisman lights can illuminate is limited, and the terrain in the mine is very narrow. The number of people dispatched now is just after many attempts. It is the best number of people. Even if you let you go, it will not improve the efficiency much, but it may be a disservice to good intentions!"

The reason given by Wei Jinpeng sounds reasonable.

Just as the players looked at each other, Xu Fei suddenly had an idea, and said to the crowd: "We don't necessarily have to help dig the mines, but we can also help protect the villagers!"

These words fell into Wei Jinpeng's ears, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Protect the villagers?"

"All of you are weak in energy and blood, and your steps are weak. You obviously haven't done any cultivation. What kind of danger is really encountered after going down the mountain, and you don't even have the power to protect yourself. How can you protect the villagers?"

The undisguised contempt in those words made the faces of the players present a little unhappy.

[Blade and Fire] The elder brother immediately stood up and asked, "Weakness in energy and blood? Are you sure?"

Seeing that someone was not convinced, Wei Jinpeng followed the voice and looked over, his face suddenly changed slightly: "Haven't you strangers never practiced cultivation? Where does your blood come from?"

Going online this morning while taking the time, [Sword Blade and Flame], which has already activated the bull body ritual, smiled triumphantly and said, "Don't you understand? This is just a small trick of our aliens."

Wei Jinpeng frowned slightly, felt it carefully for a moment, and commented: "Okay, I take back what I said earlier. Your physique is good, and your energy and blood are also very strong, comparable to an official village patrol member who has practiced for two or three years. It's a pity that you are too scattered. , you can't even do the minimum control. It doesn't seem like you came here through self-cultivation, it's more like using external force."

Chapter 18 Joining the Village Patrol Team

After a slight pause, Wei Jinpeng said again: "If you really encounter weirdness, you are no different from ordinary people, you will die when you see each other."

Dao Dao Li Huo didn't expect that the other party guessed the truth all at once, and even pointed out the "sequelae" of taking a shortcut.

Xu Fei was already prepared for Wei Jinpeng's words, and he said calmly, "According to Vice Captain Wei, as long as our strength has been cultivated to a certain level, can we act together with you?"

Wei Jinpeng was taken aback for a moment, he vaguely felt that Xu Fei was digging a hole, but there seemed to be no problem.

Finally he said, "That's right."

When he got the answer he wanted, Xu Fei showed a scheming smile: "In this case, then please send a mentor to the deputy captain to teach us how to practice. The sooner we succeed in cultivation, the sooner we can help the village!"

The other players' eyes lit up when they heard the words, and only then did they understand Xu Fei's true intentions.

While applauding him secretly, he echoed loudly.

Wei Jinpeng didn't expect Xu Fei to be waiting for him here. Hearing this, he smiled slightly, but he didn't object.

Instead, he said: "Yesterday, during the night, a stranger approached the village patrol team and wanted to become a transcendent. But we had concerns at the time and didn't agree immediately. After the overnight discussion between Captain Zhou and the village chief, we finally agreed to this matter. But there is a prerequisite."

"What conditions?"

Xu Fei asked immediately.

Wei Jinpeng said: "If you want to obtain the cultivation methods and resources, you must join the village patrol team and contribute to the safety of the village. Unless you have made enough credit for the village, you must not quit! If there is a violation, the lighter will be punished. If the punishment is serious, you will be expelled from Huaizhuang, and you will live and die at your own risk!"

"This……"

The players looked at each other with strange expressions on their faces.

They didn't think Wei Jinpeng's conditions were harsh, but just the opposite.

This kind of verbal agreement has a fart binding force on a group of lawless players!

Perhaps other NPC villagers have lived in the village for generations, and for the sake of the whole family, they must agree to the conditions of the village patrol team.But players who are inherently chaotic and evil will care about this?

It's fine if you don't open a new map during the first test, as long as you open a new map, you are guaranteed to slap your ass and leave.

Even if there is any punishment, it is nothing more than clearing the reputation of the Novice Village camp, which is not painful to the players.

"That's it? You should have said it earlier!"

"We agreed to this condition."

"Don't worry, we are developed, and we will definitely not treat the village badly. So can you teach us how to practice now?"

Seeing that the players agreed so readily, and some even had a little hippie smile on their faces, Wei Jinpeng was a little stunned.

Obviously, NPCs and players have completely different thinking circuits, making it difficult for him to understand why players would be so reckless in such a big event.

For this reason, he emphasized it again: "Listen, this is not a joke with you!"

"The village patrol team is responsible for defending the village. They often deal with weirdness and strangeness, and the death rate is extremely high. If there is a crisis that must be resolved, even if they know that there will be no return, the village patrol team has to bite the bullet."

"Before you make a decision, you must think clearly. If you regret it in the future, don't blame me for not telling you clearly!"

Seeing that Wei Jinpeng was so serious, the players couldn't help but get a little more serious.

Thinking of the horror of encountering Killer Heart Grass yesterday, some players were a little shaken.But when they thought of the picture of Zhao Tiange, an extraordinary man, easily crushing him, they immediately firmed up their minds.

As long as one can become an extraordinary person, what's so terrible about being weird?

Besides, it's just a game after all!

Therefore, the players present expressed their firm attitude with one voice.

"There are actually people who want to join the village patrol team on their own initiative!"

The surrounding NPC villagers couldn't help looking at the player with foolish eyes.

"I'm afraid I'm not mentally ill."

"Is the village patrol team so easy to advance? In what year do you have to die several times? Last year, my neighbor's boy disappeared in the gray mist after only three months of joining the village patrol team..."

"I heard that they are all strangers from other places, and they are different from us."

"It is estimated that they are still a group of young people who have never seen the world, and they will know how to be afraid after suffering a loss."

It's okay for these comments to fall into the ears of the players, but Wei Jinpeng is not satisfied first.

Village patrol team members are short of people all the year round. Even though the treatment and pensions are quite generous, there are still a large number of villagers who are unwilling to let their family members enter.

In some years when the gray fog is active, it may even be forced to recruit people through lottery.Every time there was a lot of crying, and the village patrol team was organized like a big villain.

Now finally there is a group of strangers who are not afraid of death willing to join, Wei Jinpeng can't wait for it.I'm afraid that these villagers will pour cold water on them and scare this group of stunned youths back.

He quickly glared at the villagers, and shouted: "Shut up, you guys should stop talking to me."

The majesty of the extraordinary made the villagers shrink their necks subconsciously, and no one dared to speak.

Then Wei Jinpeng turned his head, squeezed out a smile, and said to the players: "Since you have made up your mind, then I have nothing to say. I will notify Captain Zhou and prepare a team entry ceremony for you. "

As he spoke, he recruited a confidant and whispered a few words.

Then the team member nodded and quickly ran towards the center of the village.

"And the welcome ceremony?"

【Madman Zhang San】scratched his head, and said embarrassedly: "Is the village so polite?"

[Dao Dao Li Huo] also said: "There is no need to engage in these red tape etiquette, let's play... Uh, we aliens are generally practical, if you don't like this, just call the professional instructor over."

Innocent!

You think this ceremony is just welcome?

Wei Jinpeng didn't speak, but squinted his eyes at the ignorant players and smiled in his heart.

Ten minutes later, Captain Zhou, whom the players met yesterday, arrived at the scene.

"This is for you, the captain."

Wei Jinpeng briefly explained the situation to Captain Zhou, and then led the assembled team members to escort the villagers down the mountain to continue mining.

Captain Zhou was also very straightforward. After reconfirming that the players wanted to join the village patrol team, he quickly started preparations.

On the way to patrol the village team, Xu Fei was still thinking about the specific steps to obtain extraordinary power.I didn't expect to arrive, and I waited for the opportunity so smoothly, I couldn't help but feel secretly happy.

.........

The efficiency of the village patrol team is still very high.

The players didn't have to wait long, and there was a small altar table on the training ground, with some simple offerings, an incense burner, and a tablet without words placed on it.

Afterwards, some off-duty village patrol team members and some prestigious old people in the village came to the scene one after another. Even the village chief Jiang himself came, it seemed that he was going to be a witness.

Up to this point, the players haven't actually felt any abnormality, and their mentality is still to watch the fun.

But after a while, with the arrival of an old man with gray hair and beard and a sad face, some keen players began to realize that something was wrong.

Chapter 19 Contract Restrictions

This purple-robed old man has an air of dust, but there is nothing special about his attire.The only decoration on his body is the ancient bronze bell tied around his waist.

But his appearance caused a huge reaction from the NPCs present, including Captain Zhou and Village Chief Jiang.

Unanimously, they rushed up quickly, with respectful expressions, as if they were visiting their ancestors.

For a moment, there was only one question in the hearts of the players present.

Who is the purple-robed old man who appeared last?

"Elder Chen, you are here."

In the end, Captain Zhou's respectful greeting made the players understand the identity of this purple-robed old man.

It turned out that he was one of the only two talisman masters in Huaizhuang!

The old man nodded, glanced at the players, but didn't say anything, just stood beside the altar in silence.

Although his eyes were cloudy, they were still sharp.All the players who were swept by his eyes were all terrified and turned their heads unconsciously.

Seeing the arrival of the key person in charge of hosting the ceremony, Captain Zhou no longer hesitated, and immediately announced the beginning of the team entry ceremony.

After waiting for this period of time, more than 20 first-test players gathered here.

At the request of Captain Zhou, the players who intend to join the village patrol team line up to the altar, burn incense in the censer, and salute the unlettered tablet one by one!

Although the players were a little curious about what the wordless tablet represented, but the atmosphere was so solemn, they couldn't ask rashly.

After the brief etiquette was completed, Elder Chen walked over from the side of the altar.

"Edict!"

He only heard a soft drink, he flicked his sleeves, and played a piece of blue talisman.

The talisman flew lightly to the top of the altar, as if it had a self-awareness, and it was accurately pasted on the unlettered tablet.

The next moment, two seal characters that the players didn't recognize lit up on the tablet, and then the blue light flourished, like a bottomless pit, sucking up the incense smoke from the incense burner like a long whale sucking water.

Under the amazed gaze of the players, the incense sticks they had previously offered began to burn rapidly.

In an instant, it was completely burned and turned into a pinch of incense ash.

As the last wisp of incense smoke was sucked into the tablet, the talisman played by Elder Chen also spontaneously ignited without wind, turning into fly ash and dissipating.

"Contract!"

Following Elder Chen's announcement, the players present felt palpitations.

They vaguely felt that they had established some kind of close connection with an unknown existence far away.

No, it is not so much a connection as a constraint, even a shackle!

At the same time, system prompts appeared one after another.

"Congratulations, you have successfully joined the Huaizhuang village patrol team and become a reserve patrol team member."

"[Newbie Guidance Mission (Final) - Survival and Start] Completed!"

"You have signed a contract with the sacred object (???) of Qingmu Village. The content of the contract is: while receiving the treatment due to the village patrol team, you must also fight for the safety of Huai Village. Unless you make enough credit, the contract cannot be terminated .”
