Chapter 30 Wei Drum

Carpenter Zhang listened to the rooster crowing not far away, and a hint of helplessness appeared on his face: "It's a pity that the cold bone white tree is too tough and too consuming. In order to cut it into a suitable stick, almost all the money from the family was invested in the three black coins given by the village, so he barely made it into a long stick. Otherwise, he should have bought a dog like a man for Monkey."

"Okay, the cold bone white stick can hurt the monster, and it will be fine with it." Zhou Yimu nodded slightly and said.

The Zhou family found a way to let Zhou Fan learn martial arts from Lu Kui in advance, and found another old dog. Carpenter Zhang also tried his best.

"I hope so." Carpenter Zhang sighed, "Sometimes I feel that this thief is really unfair. My skinny monkey and your Afan have never done bad things in normal times. They have become short-lived people. This life will be over."

Zhou Yimu's face was dull. He looked at the vague fog in front of him and said slowly: "I once heard someone say that good and bad things will be together, and they will be better in the future."

While they were talking, they finally arrived.

What they saw was a two-acre flat land, next to the flat ground, with several small houses standing in the middle of the flat ground, with a big drum stand without a drum stand, the bottom of the drum was wedged into the soil and stood upright, and the sallow tympanic membrane was ten feet high!

This big drum completely attracted Zhou Fan's attention. He had never seen such a big drum, with dense runes engraved on the black drum.

"This drum..." Zhou Fan looked at Zhou Yimu.

"This is the Wei Gu in the village. It has long been connected with Sanqiu Village and plays the role of guarding Sanqiu Village. Those monsters dare not enter the village easily, mostly because of the existence of Wei Gu." Zhou Yimu explained with a solemn expression.

Zhou Fan said a little surprised: "Is it just for this drum?"

Although the big drum is big, the number of runes on the edge of the drum is amazing, no matter how many strange things are, Zhou Fan can't see them.

"Wei Gu is the most precious treasure in Sanqiu Village. I had it when I was young. It did not storm or rain. I heard from the old people in the village that if the drums do not beat, it will automatically make a thunder-like sound, but when it makes such a sound, it will be a disaster to destroy the village." There was a hint of sigh in Carpenter Zhang's eyes.

"In other words, this drum has never sounded." Zhou Fan raised his eyebrows and said.

Carpenter Zhang smiled and said, "Of course, although we sometimes want to know how majestic it sounds, we still hope it won't sound in our lifetime."

The thin monkey couldn't help but say, "Maybe I can beat the drum with one stick."

Carpenter Zhang lost a smile on his face. He glared at his son and said angrily: "If you are such a bastard, you are the sinner in the village."

The thin monkey shrank his neck and did not dare to say more.

"It's okay, let him knock it casually, as long as he is not afraid of shaking his wrist." Lu Kui walked over with a smile, like a hill moving.

"Captain Lu." Zhou Fan and the other four bowed and bowed.

Lu Kui first looked at the cold bone white stick in the skinny monkey's hand, and then looked at the old man squatting beside Zhou Fan's feet, and his eyes were slightly bright: "Brother Zhou, Carpenter Zhang, you are really willing to spend a lot of money."

Zhou Yinmu said: "Afan and the others will ask you."

Carpenter Zhang also said, "Please take care of Captain Lu."

Lu Kui said solemnly: "Please rest assured, both of you."

Zhou Yimu turned around and looked at Zhou Fan and said, "Then you should be careful."

Zhou Fan saw concern and a trace of worry in Zhou Yimu's eyes, and nodded and said, "Dad, I understand."

Carpenter Zhang just patted the skinny monkey on the shoulder and said, "Don't forget what I said to you last night."

The thin monkey smiled and said, "Dad, I can carry it."

Zhou Yinmu and Carpenter Zhang quickly left.

Lu Kui looked at Zhou Fan and Shouhou and smiled and said, "Welcome to join the patrol team. From now on, everyone will be brothers. There are not many rules in the team. As long as you do not violate those rules, no one will make things difficult for you. I will tell you four more when the other two newcomers come."

In addition to Zhou Fan and Shouhou, there are two newcomers who joined the patrol this time.

Lu Kui glanced at the black pot cover on the thin monkey's head and asked curiously: "Shou Monkey, I can recognize the cold bone white stick in your hand and the old dog bought from Lao Wang's head at Zhou Fan's family, but I'm sorry for the things on your head, what kind of treasure is this?"

Zhou Fan was also curious. He looked at the uneven pot lid, which just covered the thin monkey's head, like an ugly helmet.

"This is the pot lid for cooking at home." The thin monkey pointed at the pot lid on his head and said.

Lu Kui and Zhou Fan were both a little surprised. So what's the use of this thing?

The thin monkey smiled and said, "You don't understand. This is what my mother insisted on letting me put on. She said that any part of the body is not as important as the brain. If other parts are injured, maybe they can breathe. If they hit the brain, it will be really over. Afan, are you saying my mother right?"

Zhou Fan did not laugh, but said seriously: "Skinny Monkey, your mother is right."

Lu Kui couldn't help laughing, but he didn't say anything. If the skinny monkey liked it and wanted to bring a big pot over, he had no objection.

After a while, two other teenagers were also sent over. Their elders sent the person, said hello and went back.

Both of these teenagers had a little pale face, and there was an unconcealable fear in their pupils.

One of them was named Li Erlu and the other was named He Cao. They were like Zhou Fan, and they were bare-handed and each carried a package on their backs.

Lu Kui just frowned, but didn't say much.

The thin monkey smiled and greeted the two of them. Zhou Fan did not say anything, but just nodded to the two teenagers.

However, Zhou Fan was very clear in his heart. Obviously, the two of them had not prepared anything for them. Whether they could survive depends on their luck.

This kind of thing is normal in Sanqiu Village. The patrol team is called a death squad and has always maintained a high casualty rate. Even if you try your best to prepare life-saving objects, you may not be able to survive. Some people will cruelly save the money from the three Xuan coins and let their children fight for their lives by luck.

Otherwise, if you invest money in it, the person will not survive yet, and the family can be said to have lost the children and discounted the money, which will be even more severe.

The approach is cruel, but this is a choice made by others, and outsiders cannot criticize anything. Zhou Fan just feels that he is very lucky, and his parents have tried his best to him.

After all, even if Zhou Fan survives in the patrol team, he still has to face a life of only nineteen. If he changes to an ordinary household, he may have already suffered a psychological collapse and given up.

The people had arrived, but Lu Kui still didn't move. He looked up at the clearer sky and said, "Wait a minute, the person on the night will be back soon."
