Seven-star Sword Master

Chapter 70 Crying poor

It was quiet outside the window, and inside the window, one of the two people was talking softly while the other was listening carefully.

The more the person listened, the gloomier his expression became.

Until the end, Wang Shen still had a look of relief on his face, but with a hint of fear in his relief, he looked at Liu Yuansi solemnly and said:

"Lao Liu, luckily it's you who went this time. If it were me, I would probably have to stay there this time."

To be honest, Wang Shen has no impact in any case. It only took Lu Feipeng sixteen days to go from an ordinary mortal to the fourth level of the Spirit Induction Realm!

The height he reached in these sixteen days took Wang Shen thirty years to reach. It's really true that comparing yourself with others makes you feel depressed.

Liu Yuansi looked at Wang Shen solemnly and said:

"I don't think I can do anything to that guy in the short term. I think Chen Dongsheng will definitely protect him in secret. Damn it!"

Thinking of this, Liu Yuansi felt a surge of regret in his heart. If he had known that the guy's knife was so fast, he should have killed him with all his strength at the first strike.

"Old Wang, based on my guess, that kid will definitely break through again in a few days.

In addition, the Ningtai Township Inspection Office will send someone to deal with the magic frog incident in the next few days. This matter is no longer something we can interfere with. Please report it to your superiors."

After listening, Wang Shen nodded in approval and said:

"This is the only way we can do now. We should report this to our superiors before this kid really grows up. Who knows, they may even reward us.

But if we wait until that kid really grows up and report it then, they might accuse us of failing to supervise properly."

……

Soon it was time to get off duty, and in the afternoon, three more flares were raised.

However, these flares were very far away from Lu Feipeng, so Lu Feipeng did not go to support.

But when he returned to the square, he saw two figures carrying straw mats outside the Forbidden Magic Gate.

"what's the situation?"

After seeing this, Lu Feipeng decided to find Chen Dongsheng to find out the situation.

When he came to Chen Dongsheng, Lu Feipeng pursed his lips at the two team members carrying straw mats, and then whispered to Chen Dongsheng:

"Uncle Dongsheng, what's going on? Why is there another team member in trouble?"

Chen Dongsheng shook his head expressionlessly and said:

“I don’t know what happened here either.

In the afternoon, I went to inspect the base as usual.

But when I reached the base, they were both lying on the ground."

Hearing this, Lu Feipeng looked at Chen Dongsheng with a startled look in his eyes. He asked Chen Dongsheng in a low voice:

"Uncle Dongsheng, are you saying that these two team members were killed silently by the demons?

And these two team members didn't even send out a signal flare for help before they died?"

Chen Dongsheng nodded solemnly and said:

"Yes, Fei Peng. If I hadn't gone on patrol, the bodies of these two team members would have been discovered much later."

When he said this, Chen Dongsheng seemed to have thought of something, so he spoke again:

"By the way, Fei Peng, guess where I found the bodies of these two team members?"

"Ok?"

Hearing Chen Dongsheng say this to me, I knew it definitely had something to do with me, otherwise he wouldn't have said this to me without any reason.

So Lu Feipeng said tentatively:

"Uncle Dongsheng, what you said, could it be related to me? Could it be the base I patrolled before?"

"Yes."

"hiss!"

Lu Feipeng suddenly felt a chill on his back.

A terrible thought arose in his mind, as if there was some terrifying existence in that stronghold.

"That's wrong!"

As if he had thought of something, Lu Feipeng quickly said to Chen Dongsheng:

"That's not right, Uncle Dongsheng, isn't it said that the safety level of that base is among the top five in the entire patrol team?

Moreover, this afternoon, I saw Captain Wang personally solve the magic rat once.

Given the security of that base, how is it possible that there are two demon attacks in one day? "

Chen Dongsheng was also very puzzled about this.

He was also very puzzled. This place was exactly as Lu Feipeng had said before.

In the entire patrol team, the safety of this outpost ranks among the top five.

Judging from what has happened in recent years, it can even be ranked in the top three.

But for some reason, this stronghold has become no longer as safe as before.

Demon attacks often occur, and the chances of team members dying in this stronghold are particularly high.

"Hey!"

Chen Dongsheng sighed deeply, he looked at Lu Feipeng and said:

“Let’s not talk about Fei Peng for now. The patrol team has been having problems for a long time. The two elders have long been dissatisfied with the situation of our patrol team.

Now, two more team members have been killed. If the two elders ask about it, I don’t know how to explain it to them.

And this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that the village has no money.

There have been many accidents during this period, and now the village can’t even afford the pensions for these two team members.”

Lu Feipeng: ...

"when…"

Just then, a bell rang from the village.

The two of them looked into the village through the Forbidden Demon Gate, and then Chen Dongsheng said:

"Forget it, let's not think about it so much for now. When the time comes, there will be a way out. Let's go and take over first."

So the two of them walked towards the Forbidden Demon Gate, and Wang Yu Shi followed closely behind.

Inside the Forbidden Demon Gate, three figures were seen walking in from outside the village, and Liu Yuansi nodded to them.

Before he could speak, Chen Dongsheng, who had just walked in, spoke directly:

"Captain Liu, something happened..."

So Chen Dongsheng told Liu Yuansi everything that had happened during the day, including the five attacks he had suffered during the day.

When he heard that another team member had died, the village chief Wang Qingping's face changed instantly. He stood there with a dark face and said nothing.

After handing over to Liu Yuansi, Chen Dongsheng looked at the village chief Wang Qingping again.

After noticing the expression on Wang Qingping's face, he coughed twice in embarrassment:

"Ahem, Village Chief Wang, you've heard what happened. Both the night and day shifts are short of manpower."

Wang Qingping's face was extremely gloomy, but he still spoke:

"Captain Chen, just tell me, how many more people do we need for this patrol?"

Although the tone of the voice was a bit cold, Chen Dongsheng didn't care much when he heard it. He just saw Chen Dongsheng said:

"We need to recruit ten new team members this time. I hope that Chief Wang can help us recruit them as soon as possible."

"Okay, I get it, but there is one thing I want to tell you in advance, I don't have any money now.

The money for these ten new team members’ hard work may have to be brought by the officials from the Ningtai Township Inspection Office in a few days.

If any team members or their family members come to see you later, you must explain it to them in advance."

No matter how reluctant Wang Qingping was, he still had to communicate this matter with Chen Dongsheng in advance.

Otherwise, if any new team members or their families come to complain to Chen Dongsheng later.

If they say that he, the village chief, embezzled the money earned by the new team members, then we will be in trouble.

Although he is in charge of the village's financial power, the patrol team has the obligation to monitor the flow of village funds.

If Chen Dongsheng found out that he dared to embezzle the money earned by his teammates and reported the matter to the higher authorities, then Wang Qingping's entire family would be beheaded!

Chen Dongsheng nodded without thinking:

"Yes, I understand. I wonder if the village can still provide the pensions for the two sacrificed members?"

Wang Qingping knew very well how much money was left in the village, so he spoke without thinking:

“If we go by the previous amounts, the village can only afford the pension for one team member now.

But I suggest that Captain Chen wait a few days until the money is sent over, and then you can pay the pension together, which can also avoid some unnecessary trouble. "

While Chen Dongsheng, Liu Yuansi and Wang Qingping were talking, Lu Feipeng had been secretly observing the two of them.

He doesn't trust any of the cultivators in the village now, including Chen Dongsheng.

Even though he knew that Chen Dongsheng was not the murderer who attacked him, he had to be very careful until the matter was clear.

Don't look back and lose your life because of your carelessness.

Chen Dongsheng felt that what Wang Qingping said made sense, so he nodded and said:

"Okay, then let's do as the village chief Wang said."

After saying this, he looked at Wang Yushi and said:

"Captain Wang, it's getting late, let's start the handover."

After the team members completed the handover, Lu Feipeng specifically greeted Chen Dongsheng:

"Uncle Dongsheng, I need to go back and ask my parents, so I won't have dinner in the camp."

There is no other way. As long as the issue of the magic frog is not resolved, the captains cannot go home to rest and must stay in the camp on standby at all times.

This is also the reason why several courtyards were specially built in the camp.

On the way back, Lu Feipeng specifically asked Doufei to wait for him.

The three of them were walking on the path, and when they were approaching a fork in the road.

Lu Feipeng deliberately asked Chen Ming to go away first and left Doufei behind.

"Fei Peng, what's the matter?"

Dou Fei looked at Lu Feipeng who asked his second brother to avoid him and asked.

Lu Feipeng looked at Dou Fei and said seriously:

"Doufei, I have something to ask you, think it over before answering me."

Hearing Lu Feipeng say this to him, he knew something must have happened, so Dou Fei became serious.

He said to Lu Feipeng, "Feipeng, tell me, what's the matter?"

Lu Feipeng looked around and saw that there was no one around except Chen Ming in the distance, so he spoke in a low voice:

"It's like this, Doufei. You are guarding outside the Forbidden Demon Gate. Have you seen any special people entering or leaving the Forbidden Demon Gate today?"

Dou Fei thought carefully in his mind before speaking:

"Fei Peng, what do you mean by special person?"

"You just feel that there is something unusual, or that a cultivator entered or left the Forbidden Demon Gate while you were on duty today. Don't rush to answer me. Think about it carefully first."

So Doufei stood there and started thinking seriously.

But after thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of any abnormal person who had entered or left the Forbidden Demon Gate, so he said:

"Fei Peng, I don't think anyone who entered and exited the Forbidden Demon Gate today was abnormal, but apart from Captain Chen, there were no other cultivators who entered and exited twice today."

Hearing this, Lu Feipeng looked at Dou Fei with some disbelief and said:

"Doufei, are you saying that apart from Captain Chen, no other cultivators have ever entered or left the Forbidden Demon Sect?"

Dou Fei nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, Fei Peng, I am sure of this. What happened, Fei Peng?"

Lu Feipeng waved his hand and said:

"Yes, there are some things, but it's not a big problem right now. Doufei, you have to help me keep a close eye on the people entering and leaving the Forbidden Demon Gate in the future."

"Yeah, good Fei Peng."

"Okay, let's go."
