Bright!

Chapter 8 Night Watch

The first ray of sunlight in the morning passed through the hole in the roof, and when it slanted down and fell on Xu Le's face, it looked like mottled flower shadows, which was very beautiful.

Especially after the terrible darkness.

This kind of bright sunshine is particularly precious.

After getting enough rest, the tension and fatigue have subsided.

I have to say that Xu Le's face is quite good-looking now, with a bit of the look of his previous life. Compared to Yanzu Guanxi and the like, everyone is similar.

…

"Ale? When are we leaving? Ale, Ale!"

"Old Zhou!"

Lao Zhou's shout made Xu Le suddenly wake up from his sleep. Regardless of the pain and stiffness in his neck, he quickly grabbed the bed board and looked around.

"It's already dawn."

Xu Le touched the medal in his pocket and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that it was still there.

But he immediately stood up nervously, because when he glanced at the door from the corner of his eye, he found that the person standing at the door was no longer a golden toad, but a man in black clothes.

If there's anything the two have in common, it's that they both smoke!

"A toad turned into a human?"

Hearing Xu Le's words, the man standing at the door suddenly frowned.

“What toad turned into a human?

This kid has been contaminated by Gu Yinduo to the point of becoming delirious? "

However, the man didn't say much. He just took a few puffs and quickly smoked out the cigarette butt in his hand.

Throw away the cigarette butt and stamp it out, then turn around and look at Xu Le:

"you're awake?"

Isn't this nonsense? Xu Le thought so, but he didn't dare to say it.

In particular, the opponent's clothing, weapons, and logo on the chest all point to a certain unit in the original owner's memory.

The unconventional troops of the lighthouse, the walkers who walk in the darkness, the lighthouse night watchmen.

There is no detailed description of the Night's Watch position system.

However, Xu Le still learned from the memory of the original owner that some of their people were responsible for guarding the safety of the lighthouse.

There are also some night watchmen who need to go out to explore dangerous areas, eliminate dangers, and create safe zones.

The people's perception of the night watchman is also very different.

Some people feel that they are the keepers of the lighthouse and deserve to be supported.

But there are also some people who feel that they are too mysterious and can wander in the darkness. Are they still considered human beings?

With such emotions, it is natural to have resistance to the Night Watchman.

"Are you the night watchman?"

Hearing Xu Le reveal his identity, the man sneered.

"Ah."

But he didn't answer Xu Le's question. Instead, he turned and looked at the door, as if waiting for something.

Xu Le also followed his gaze towards the door. Not long after, several people also wearing black and gray combat uniforms came over.

Three men and three women, including the man at the door, there are seven people in this team.

The man at the door nodded to them and made a gesture that Xu Le didn't recognize.

Then he asked:

"Head, what should we do now?"

deal with? Although Xu Le didn't know what these people were communicating secretly, he had a strong feeling.

The treatment they were talking about was definitely not the kind of bringing him back to the lighthouse safely and providing him with good food and drink along the way.

Is it killing? Abandoned in the wild? Or take it back as a specimen?

What should he do if they want to kill him? Use another Guyinduo fruit to summon the Golden Toad?

Thinking of this, Xu Le felt a little confused.

What answered the man was a woman's voice:

"Is it him?"

"Well, what I just discovered is that my companion has been deformed. There are some signs of fighting at the scene, but not much.

As a solitary overnight stayer, it was strange to not die even if I slept here with only a campfire.

Probably contaminated. "

Contaminated? This word is not a simple word in this world.

Generally speaking, polluters are those who have been polluted by the power of ancient sounds.

Some of these people will be deformed into monsters, and some will die directly.

The woman nodded slightly:

"Let me take a look first. If it's confirmed, it won't be too late to deal with it."

Xu Le heard the conversation between the two clearly. The so-called treatment should be to kill him and then burn the body with real fire.

This is the most convenient and quick way to deal with polluters.

Xu Le's mind was spinning rapidly. If he wanted to survive from the hands of humans, force alone might not be enough.

Let’s not talk about whether Jin Chan is the opponent of these night watchmen.

Even if Jin Chan is really capable of killing everyone, if he wants to return to the lighthouse, he still needs to pass the lighthouse security check.

It won't be that easy then, and it's impossible for Golden Toad to fight against the entire lighthouse.

They may not even be the opponents of the team in front of them.

Taking a deep breath, Xu Le began to clarify his thoughts.

He was able to sleep safely until dawn, probably because the toad protected him as promised.

But what should I tell these night watchmen now?

It is to confess and sit through the bottom of the prison.

Or resist the strict rules and go home to celebrate the New Year?

If you make up a story, how can you make these people believe you?

This is a question worth pondering.

…

While Xu Le was thinking, the woman called the head had already walked in front of him.

The woman in front of her was about thirty years old, and the years had left some marks on her face.

He looks above average. If he were ten years younger, he would still be outstanding.

Before Xu Le could stand up, the woman came over and grabbed his arm, like a chicken, and lifted Xu Le up, looking left and right.

Her methods were very rough and she had no concern for Xu Le's feelings at all.

It seemed that Xu Le was not asked what he thought.

It was as if what he had caught was not a human being, but a chicken.

The woman's eyes were cold. She only paused slightly when she glanced at the musket wound on Xu Le's chest. Other times, she almost glanced over it.

After reading it, the woman let go of her hand and threw Xu Le to the ground.

She did not make a conclusion about Xu Le, but turned to another team member behind her and said:

"Wang Shu, come and take a look."

"yes."

Wang Shu walked up to Xu Le and nodded to Xu Le:

"Sorry."

"Forehead?"

Before Xu Le could react, Wang Shu had already put on white thread gloves and checked Xu Le's body.

This man's technique is much gentler than that of a woman, and it won't hurt as much when he pinches the bones.

As he checked, he began to recount the results of his examination.

"Judging from the skeleton, he is about 18-22 years old, male, about 180cm tall and weighs 60kg.

There was a musket blast wound on the chest, no burn marks, and it was not shot at close range.

There was a lot of blood on his body, both human and weird.

It was initially determined that the strange contact was a ghost body or a living corpse, and the others were unknown.

There are obvious remnants of ancient Yinduo energy on his body.

Risk assessment, high, suspected to be contaminated.

Head, what to do now? "

When the middle-aged woman heard Wang Shu's examination results, she nodded with satisfaction:

"Xiao Wangshu's business ability has improved very quickly, well, that's basically what it looks like.

As for how to deal with this kid, what do you think? "

After the woman spoke, another team member answered first:

"It would be no problem if it was a normal duo, but now he is alone and his companion is dead.

It is too risky to take such people back if they stay alone overnight, so we should deal with them on the spot. "

"Yes, the possibility of contamination for those who stay alone at night is too high. Let's deal with it on the spot."

"Seconded."

Xu Le listened silently to the conversations of these people. These conversations all pointed to one result, that is, he was contaminated by weirdness.

In addition, the team member has said very bluntly that he should be dealt with on the spot.

What is the solution on the spot? Xu Le knew it without thinking.

The desire to survive made Xu Le clarify his thoughts instantly.

If you want to survive, you need to do two things.

First, he has to prove that he is not contaminated.

Then, he needs to show his worth.

Because light proves that it is not contaminated, it is not necessarily possible to survive in this slightly dark world.

People's hearts are not necessarily ugly, but they are not necessarily kind either.

People who are useless will be abandoned directly to some extent, especially in dangerous wilderness.

He needs to show value.

And it must be step by step to reflect multiple values.

He took a deep breath and let the heat fill his body.
