Eternal Life: I'm Grinding Experience in the Patrol Division

The next day.

The gloomy weather last night turned into a drizzle this morning.

In the room, Song Changming was wearing a straw raincoat, and heard his father's familiar cough. In the woodshed, his mother was decocting medicine, and the bitter smell of medicine was everywhere, as usual.

Whenever the weather turned cold, his old father would suffer from minor illnesses.

"Dad, Mom, I'm going."

After getting dressed, Song Changming said and went out.

The rain hit the straw raincoat, making a rustling sound.

His long boots were soon soaked by muddy water, but Song Changming didn't care about it. He just hurried to report to the patrol station, not wanting to miss the time.

Compared with the loneliness at night, there were many pedestrians on the street even if it was raining during the day, some wearing thick straw raincoats and hats like Song Changming, and some holding oil-paper umbrellas, and walking in a hurry.

In the morning, most people were busy with their livelihoods, and not many people came out to play.

Song Changming walked very fast, without stopping for a moment, and followed the fastest route to the patrol station on Houli Street to work.

In the patrol station, there were many armored patrolmen coming in and out during the day.

Song Changming looked away, lowered his head slightly, and went straight to the night watchman's base in a corner to sign in.

"Changming, hurry up, the boss has already told us to go to the east of the city to fetch the bodies." Not long after, Li Fuan walked in and said to Song Changming as soon as he saw him.

"Okay." Song Changming was not surprised.

Last night, the gangs fought on the street, and many people must have died.

You can't expect these gang members to deal with the bodies and wash the floor for you in an orderly manner after the fight.

These aftermath tasks naturally fell on the heads of these night watchmen.

As for why they had to wait until this morning to tell them to transport the bodies out of the city for disposal, this involved a little unwritten rule.

There are usually some money or other relatively valuable things left on the bodies of the gang members.

These benefits are naturally not for the night watchmen to pick up. If it is at night, it usually falls on the patrolmen on duty.

After they have touched the bodies and checked their hands, they will let the night watchmen work.

These are tacitly understood, and there is nothing to say.

Soon, the two of them went to the east gate of the city in the rain, where there was a temporary place to put the bodies.

When they arrived, they saw the bodies piled up like a hill. Song Changming roughly estimated that there were at least forty or fifty.

If he had just arrived and saw so many dead bodies at once, he would have felt uncomfortable.

But now, he has been integrated into this world, and because of his position, he has been able to remain calm and composed in the face of these bodies, and his heart is as calm as water.

At this time, there was already a group of night watchmen who were buried in the bodies, and their movements were skillful.

"Damn, these people are so fast!" Li Fuan couldn't help but curl his lips when he saw this.

Although the corpse had been checked by the patrol guards, there was nothing valuable left in their hands.

But sometimes they could still find something if they were lucky. For them, finding a penny or half a penny was good.

Especially on a rainy night like this, the patrol guards didn't have much patience to touch the corpse in the rain, so they had a higher chance of finding something.

Li Fuan muttered to himself, but his movements were not slow. He soon joined the action of touching the corpse.

Song Changming was not unconventional, and his movements were even faster than Li Fuan.

However, touching the corpse was purely a matter of luck, and it was a second-hand corpse, so there were really not many valuable things.

After turning over several corpses, they found nothing. Instead, Li Fuan took something away without leaving a trace, which was accidentally seen by Song Changming.

Everyone also tacitly understood that this business was purely based on eyesight and quick hands. Whoever touched it would own it.

"Huh?!"

Song Changming suddenly focused on the inside of the trouser leg of a corpse in front of him. When his hand slid over it, he felt the unusual thickness.

Without any hesitation, he used his hands to tear open the black trouser leg on that side.

He saw a palm-sized piece of strange cloth sewn on the inside of the trouser leg.

Is this a hidden inner pocket?

It must be shipped if it can be hidden so secretly!

Song Changming immediately tore open the cloth and took out the hidden things inside.

Two folded parchments with dense words written on them.

There was also a delicate black ring, which looked like a ring.

It was just that I didn't know what metal material it was made of. It looked shiny and a little unusual.

Song Changming didn't look closely, especially since there were many words on the parchment. He quickly put it away to prevent it from being stained by rain.

After a while, the corpse search was over. Song Changming and Li Fuan moved the corpses one by one onto a wooden cart.

The two dragged them out of the city together, and the other night watchmen did the same.

No one discussed the results of the corpse search.

A few miles away from Donglai County, there is a vast river called Luolong River.

Usually, the simplest and most convenient way to deal with the corpses carried in the city is to throw them into the river.

As for the problem of polluting water sources, it has never existed since ancient times.

There are many vicious fish in the river. The flesh and blood of these corpses will sink into the river within a day.

"Hurry up, I heard that there is a serious bandit problem outside the city recently. I can't stay any longer." Li Fuan wiped the rain off his face and said when he arrived at the river.

Song Changming had also heard about this and didn't want to stay any longer.

The two struggled to grab the corpses and throw them into the river. After being soaked in rain, these corpses were heavier than before.

After all, Li Fuan was a little older. After finally moving them, he was so tired that he couldn't straighten his back.

"Chang, Changming, why don't you sit down for a while and let me take a breath." Li Fuan gasped.

"Okay, Brother Li, please rest while I look around." Song Changming nodded and looked around.

If there were really bandits, he would definitely grab Li Fu'an and run back immediately.

However, just as Song Changming took a few steps away, he suddenly stopped and vaguely heard something.

"Changming, what's wrong?" Li Fu'an was sitting on a big rock by the river and noticed that he couldn't help but ask.

"No, maybe I drank too much rainwater. Brother Li, I'm going to relieve myself." Song Changming turned around and said half-jokingly.

"What did you say? Go quickly." Li Fu'an laughed and looked away.

Song Changming immediately walked a little further, and after confirming that Li Fu'an could not see him, he felt in his arms with a strange expression and took out the black ring that he had just found from the corpse.

"Did you just make the noise?"

The ring is dark and shiny, and there seems to be a stream of light constantly spinning on its surface, making it look mysterious and even weird.

"Jie, Jie, Jie, I'm right, boy, your reaction is very fast." The voice came from the ring again, confirming that Song Changming was indeed not hallucinating just now.

"." Song Changming was silent for a while.

"Boy, don't be silent. Meeting me today is a great blessing for you and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." Ring said slowly.

"Opportunity?"

"As long as you do what I say, I can help you achieve gold, silver, wealth, power, status, magical secrets, and even immortality!"

The ring's voice sounded like that of an elder with a high status, and his tone was old, majestic, and convincing.

And the words he said are full of temptation. If an ordinary person or a weak-minded person listens to it, he may immediately regard the ring as a divine object, worship the old man inside as an immortal, and bow before him.

But Song Changming was not so hasty and asked: "So, what are you? A person? Or a ring?"

"Boy, if my identity is known to you, it will bring you a life-or-death disaster. Are you sure you want to know?"

"No, thank you." Song Changming immediately lost interest, regardless of whether what the ring said was true or false.

Ring snorted softly and continued.

"The two pieces of parchment you got are exactly the Soul-Severing Knife and the Powerful Bull Demon Technique that I had previously copied. Although this technique is not very mysterious, it is also suitable for people like you who have not yet practiced martial arts.

If it hadn't been for that kid's bad luck and died before he even started training, this fate wouldn't have been your turn either. "

Song Changming understood clearly. It seemed that the old man's ring had been picked up by a member of the gang before. Now that the man died, it fell into his hands.

"Nothing is free in the world, so what do you need me to do for you?" Song Changming looked back at Li Fu'an's direction to confirm that he was not coming, and then continued to ask.

"Hide my existence and find what I need. Before that, I want you to bleed on the ring. From now on, our destiny will be one, and I will help you improve your strength as soon as possible and have everything you want!" "

Perhaps realizing that the kid in front of him was not that easy to fool, the tone of the voice in the ring became a little more serious.

"how?"

Song Changming stared at the ring, with no emotion on his face. This made the consciousness inside the ring a little unsure of what the kid was thinking.

"If you don't believe it, you can go back and practice the martial arts copied on the parchment first. There is no need for me to lie to you."

Jie Jie Jie, when it comes to this, how can ordinary people refuse.

After all, if it is true, it will be endless glory and wealth, as well as the ultimate temptation of immortality!

"Changming, it's time to go back?" Li Fu'an's voice came from the distance mixed with the sound of rain.

"Here we come." Song Changming glanced at the ring in his hand for the last time, and then he threw the ring and the boundless temptation into the river as if throwing a stone away, and turned around to leave.

Immortality?

For other people, or any other living being in the world, it may be an irresistible temptation.

But for Song Changming, this is something he has already obtained, so there is no need to covet it anymore.

As for glory, wealth, magic secrets, etc., he has a long life, and he has plenty of time to slowly figure it out and slowly accumulate it. All these can always be obtained, so why bother to rely on other mysterious external help to increase risks.

In addition, the laughter of the old man with this ring is also very unpleasant, he doesn’t like it.

In the river, a fish happened to be swimming by. Seeing this shiny thing, it swallowed it in one gulp.

With a flick of his tail, several circles of water rippled out, and this unknown but tempting opportunity disappeared.
