Wu Xiajiu and others didn't stay in the room for long before they were called to the front hall by the servants of Cheng's family, saying that Director Li had something to order.

After they passed by, they found that almost everyone was there. Besides Director Li, there were also deputy team members, Sergeant Cheng and Cheng Jiming.

Even Miss Zhuang Miaoling was sitting on the chair in the front hall, coughing softly with a handkerchief covering her mouth, her face looked paler than yesterday.

Probably because she saw Master Zhuang turned into a zombie last night.

Behind Zhuang Miaoling stood a maid and Huayue.

What is there to say?

Wu Xiajiu couldn't help but exchanged glances with Mr. V, and then they stood still in the front hall, waiting for Director Li's order.

Director Li said: "Zhuangfu Village is plagued by plague and zombies, and now it has seriously threatened the safety of the people in Zhuangfu Town."

"I just came to Zhuangfu Town to take office, so I can't just let it go."

"So, I'm going to assign you to investigate Zhuangfu Village and see what's going on there now?"

"A team of police officers, I saw your heroic performance last night. I believe you will be able to complete this mission well and bring back the information about Zhuangfu Village."

[Congratulations to the passengers who triggered the must-go branch - "Director Li's Mission Assignment". The number of passengers involved: is freely determined by Director Li. 】

[Participation requirements: no special requirements, but please carry self-defense items at all times.Participation time: unlimited. 】

It seems to be a side quest that must be accepted.

But if they all left Zhuangfu Town and there was no one to protect Director Li...

Although there are three other police teams, one can imagine that if there is any weird force majeure danger, no matter whether it is three teams or four teams, it is useless.

What's more, Director Li is still living in Cheng's house.

In the case that the insider is not yet clear, Director Li must have passengers by his side.

After all, they want to ensure that the information prompt of the world under the car - "Protect Director Li's safety" cannot be wrong.

Therefore, Wu Xiajiu said: "Director, if we all go to Zhuangfu Village, won't there be no one around you to protect you?"

"If there are zombies coming to attack Cheng's house in the future, can you guarantee that other police officers can catch the zombies?"

As soon as these words came out, Sergeant Cheng became uneasy for a moment.

He couldn't help turning his head sideways and said to Director Li: "This, we have to reconsider, we can't send them all to Zhuangfu Village."

"It's really necessary to leave one or two to protect Cheng, to protect your safety, Director, you see..."

Director Li pondered for a while, nodded and said: "Indeed, then... you, and you, you two stay here."

He pointed at the two of them.

One is Zhong Nan, and the other is an old dog.

The old dog didn't expect him to be among the people left behind, so he couldn't help but feel a little rejoiced for a while.

He didn't need to think carefully to know how dangerous Zhuangfu Village would be at the moment, it was just a dragon's pond and a tiger's lair, there might be something waiting for them, and there might even be no return.

Of course it is best not to go.

Therefore, the old dog tried his best to maintain a happy expression, and said "yes".

Zhong Nan was very calm, but looked at Wu Xiajiu and the others with concern.

At this time, Deputy Captain Shi said: "Director, why don't I lead the team to Zhuangfu Village? I'm not at ease with them only. In case someone escapes..."

"Who will run away." Jack couldn't help interrupting him.

The vice-captain Shi raised his eyes to look at him, part of his eyes were covered by the glasses, he curled his mouth, but said without the slightest smile on his face, "No, naturally it's the best."

"Besides, I said it was you, don't get excited."

Jack was watched by him and suddenly closed his mouth, swallowed his saliva, and stopped talking, but he couldn't help but curse in his heart—it was just an NPC, what?

Director Li said: "That's fine, I'm young, then you will lead the team, pay attention to safety."

"Today, you go out and buy some knives and weapons when you come back. You also need to prepare some black donkey hooves and glutinous rice to deal with zombies."

"Let's go to Zhuangfu Village early tomorrow morning, and come back before dark."

"Okay, I see, Director." Deputy Captain Shi said.

After finishing the order, Director Li let them leave.

This morning, Inspector Cheng ordered people to find two horses, and Director Li personally wrote a letter asking the Taoist priest to come over, and then let the two police officers of the second team leave Zhuangfu Town at high speed. to find someone.

But if you want to find someone, it will take some time, and you don't know when you will come back.

There was no time to waste time, Lao Gou and Zhong Nan stayed at Cheng's house, while Wu Xiajiu and others went out to buy things that were going to Zhuangfu Village.

After all, apart from the wooden warehouse, they now have no other items that can deal with zombies.

When the deputy team led people to walk on the empty streets of Zhuangfu Town, it was clearly daytime, but it was so quiet that they could only hear their own footsteps.

Thinking that they were leaving for Zhuangfu Village tomorrow morning, Wang Xiaoming couldn't help but whispered, "I, I also want to stay in Cheng's house."

Because of his "status", his girlfriend Huayue was not in the ranks of a team of police officers. Director Li's dispatch mission naturally excluded her.

Huayue was also able to stay at Cheng's house without going to Zhuangfu Village.

Hearing his muttered words, Jack said, "You don't have to go either."

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaoming turned around in surprise and asked, "Can I not go?"

Jack sneered twice: "Since the side quest has already started and the character is selected, do you think this is a question of whether you can go or not?"

"Don't be naive, you might as well think about how to survive in Zhuangfu Village when you think about it."

"Although it is said that we will leave early tomorrow morning and return before dark, there is no guarantee that there will be no accidents along the way."

"Doing this kind of side mission in the world under the car, I don't think we will come back safe and sound without danger."

Wang Xiaoming's face turned pale by Jack's words.

Professor Tang pushed his glasses and said, "He's right. Once the side mission is started, it's impossible to back down."

"Since the number of participants is not up to us to decide, we should prepare things from now on to ensure our own safety, at least to be able to come back alive from Zhuangfu Village."

"Moreover, it is very likely that more information and clues will be found in Zhuangfu Village, which means that the life of the ticket we finally get will be longer. There are advantages and disadvantages."

Wang Xiaoming's complexion improved, he let out a breath slowly, and hummed.

The Shi deputy team walked in the front alone, and seemed not to notice the movement behind them.

After a long while, he stopped, turned around and said to Wu Xiajiu, "Leave here and go shopping in groups of two."

Before they left, the servants of the Cheng family pointed out the route.

Although almost everyone in Zhuangfu Town is closed at home now, the business owners who come to the door to seek business, presumably the bosses who sell things will not refuse.

It was finally decided—Mr. V and Jack went to buy glutinous rice, and Professor Tang and Wang Xiaoming went to buy black donkey hooves, cinnabar and yellow talisman paper.

Meanwhile, Vice Team Shi and Wu Xiajiu went to buy knives.

The servants of the Cheng family said that there is a shop in Zhuangfu town that sells talisman paper, cinnabar, red string and incense candles, and that is for dead people.

In the past, corpse hunters who passed by Zhuangfu Town would occasionally go to that shop to buy things, and when they had time, they would talk about what they encountered while driving corpses.

Most of the rumors about zombies that Sergeant Cheng heard came from there, and there might be black donkey hooves for sale.

Before parting, Wu Xiajiu said: "Pay attention to see if there are bronze gossip mirrors and mahogany swords in that shop. If there is no mahogany sword, mahogany branches will do."

"Bagua mirror is the essence of gold and water. It is bright inside and dark outside. It has the function of early warning."

"I don't need to say more about Taomujian, you guys understand."

Wang Xiaoming: "I know, to deal with zombies, you need rooster and black dog blood. We should pay attention to it when we go shopping."

Mr. V: "Leave the rooster and black dog blood to us."

Soon, several people separated.

Wu Xiajiu followed Shi's deputy team and walked in one direction.

Both of them walked quietly without speaking.

After turning a street, they suddenly heard the sound of hammering iron coming from ahead, and it became more obvious as the two approached.

Wu Xiajiu couldn't help but exchanged glances with Deputy Captain Shi, and then the two walked quickly towards the sound of the blacksmithing.

When no one in Zhuangfu Town dared to come out, there were actually some people outside who were still working outside.

When Wu Xiajiu and Shi's deputy team came here, there was a person next to the stove with his back turned to them, taking out a red-hot iron block from the stove.

Then, the man turned to face Wu Xiajiu and Shi's deputy.

Seeing two people suddenly appearing outside the stall, the man was not surprised and asked, but raised his eyelids lightly, and then continued to work in silence.

He picked up the hammer and struck the red iron block one after another, causing sparks to fly from the iron block.

Wu Xiajiu was shocked for a moment by this man's appearance.

Because the whole face of this person seems to be burned and disfigured, no, not burned, but...

Wu Xiajiu's gaze could not help but fall on the iron block under the man's hand that was constantly being beaten - it seemed to be a scar branded by iron.

One after another, some places were obviously branded several times in succession, and the original appearance has long been completely invisible.

There is no intact skin on the face, which looks hideous and terrifying.

He was tall and tall, and his muscles seemed to be bulging all over his body due to the constant forging of iron. His upper body was only wearing a sleeveless mandarin jacket and a fireproof apron.

And the exposed skin is mostly branded scars...

What happened to this man?

"Is something wrong?"

It seemed that seeing the two of them just standing in front of the stall without speaking, the man spoke, his voice was extremely hoarse and unpleasant.

Wu Xia said after a long time, "Buy a knife."
