Strange World: My Systematic Practice Life

When we got back to the city, it was time for lunch.

Bailu didn't go to the field anymore, but went directly to the dining hall.

It is said to be a dining hall, but it is actually just a shed made of some wood and hay.

It is full of coarse rice made from a lot of straw and a few grains of rice.

When you eat it in your mouth, it doesn't taste like chewing wax, but it also has a spicy throat friction feeling.

Even so, Egret found a corner and began to swallow.

Although these things that are not as good as pig food are unpalatable.

But it is not without advantages, that is, it can fill the stomach, and there is no limit, until you are full.

In such a world, it is a blessing for the poor to be able to fill their stomachs and not starve to death.

After one bowl, Egret filled another bowl.

When he passed a few long-term workers eating in the corner, he saw them discussing something with relish.

"Hey, have you guys heard about it? The Li Mansion plans to recruit a group of nursing homes in the past two days, saying that we, long-term and short-term workers, can also sign up."

"Recruiting the nursing home again, the nursing home in the mansion seems to be recruiting too frequently recently!"

"Yes, but so what, it really happened! I am the first to sign up!"

A small long-term worker patted his chest and shouted.

"Tch, do you think it's so easy to be a nursing home? You have to pass the assessment first, and you don't even weigh how many pounds of flesh you have all over your body!"

"And idiot, the nursing home recruits so frequently, why do you think it is!"

An older long-term worker said in a mysterious whisper.

"Why else, because there are not enough people to be white!" The short man said angrily.

"That's right, it's not enough!" The older worker sneered.

"Because people often die outside the city recently."

"People often die! Could it be that there is a bandit trouble?"

Several long-term workers guessed and said.

"Hmph, banditry! If only banditry was that simple."

The old long-term worker uttered a sentence lightly, which fell into the ears of several long-term workers, making them even more confused.

"If it's not banditry, what else could it be?"

The little man couldn't help asking.

Seeing a mysterious look suddenly appeared on the face of the senior worker, he even lowered his voice a lot.

"Some time ago, I had a stomachache at night and went to the latrine at night, but I happened to see those corpses being carried back."

"I can clearly see that those corpses died in a terrible way. None of them were complete, and some even lost half of their bodies. Their intestines and internal organs were all exposed, not to mention how leaky they were. It was scary. I don’t even dare to go to the hut.”

"Hiss!" All the long-term workers gasped.

"Could it be a beast?" Several people guessed again.

"Beast? What kind of beast can make people like this!"

The senior worker snorted softly before continuing.

"I doubt it. It's probably because something unclean happened outside the city."

"You mean..."

Several long-term workers seemed to think of something at the same time and lowered their voices again, with panic expressions on their faces.

Not far away, the egret looked away, his eyes flickering.

He heard clearly what the few people said just now.

"Is the mansion going to recruit a nursing home? This is an opportunity."

It is undoubtedly much better to become a nursing home than to be a long-term worker now.

And the most important thing is that as long as you become a nurse, you will have the opportunity to get in touch with martial arts.

Then he can completely get rid of the current situation, which is obviously much more convenient than what he planned before.

According to his previous plan, he would use the savings from his previous life and the harvest from the dead body, a total of ten taels of silver.

Taking advantage of the break, go to a martial arts gym in the city to learn martial arts, and quickly form combat power.

Now it seems that it doesn't have to be so troublesome.

Although he had only been here for a short week, he knew a little about Mopan City.

The Li family that I belong to has a very good status in the city, and it can be regarded as a top force other than the government office.

So the Li family must have martial arts.

Starting from the Li family is undoubtedly more reliable than those martial arts schools in the city.

Thinking of this, Egret already had a decision in his heart.

As for the danger that those long-term workers said.

He thought of the horribly wounded body he had buried.

Now that I think about it, something is wrong.

The wounds on the neck and body of the dead body looked like they were caused by some large beast.

But in such an environment of cold weather and food shortage, what kind of beast would kill its prey without keeping it for food and abandon it at will.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

I'm afraid that man's death is a bit strange.

"We have to act as soon as possible."

His eyes flickered.

With a decision, Egret no longer procrastinates.

He has always been a decisive person.

After dinner, I went directly to the steward and expressed my intention.

"You want to apply to become a nursing home?"

The fat steward looked at the egret with his fish eyes.

Looking at his thin figure and monk's immature face, with a sneer on his face, he wanted to ridicule him.

After all, the current Bailu is just a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, and he still looks malnourished.

Isn't it funny to want to be a nursing home in such a situation?

But before the fat steward opened his mouth to refuse.

Egret had already handed over a small bag and directly blocked the fat mouth of the other party.

The fat deacon was stunned for a moment, took the pouch, and caught a glimpse of a silver light in it.

The sarcasm on his face disappeared immediately as if he had changed his face.

"Well, that's right, little brother Bai will definitely be a nursing home, and I will leave the application to me."

"Then please trouble Deacon Zhang!"

A smile appeared on Egret's face.

"Good talk good talk!"

The fat deacon patted Egret on the shoulder, showing a bag wrapped around me.

……

There is a reason for the saying that money can make ghosts work.

After the egret wrapped two taels of silver.

His application for a guard was quickly finalized.

Early the next morning, he was notified to take part in the guard assessment.

In the martial arts arena.

At this time, dozens of people were already standing.

Bai Lu's eyes swept over the crowd, all of them came to join the guards.

There are many long-term workers among them, and even some servants.

It seems that there are always many people who want to fight for a way out in troubled times.

Although it is dangerous to work in a nursing home, both the treatment and status are much higher than those of these personnel.

The most conspicuous in the crowd was a burly and strong man.

With a height of nearly two meters, his thick arms are almost as thick as ordinary people's thighs.

Such a height stands out from a group of weak chickens who don't have enough to eat and don't wear warm clothes.

Bailu knew that this person was Wei Song, and it was said that he was a new long-term worker.

This stalwart figure has been designated as a guard by default, and several coaches and priests are quite optimistic about him.

It is said that his roots are excellent, and his talent is good all the way in martial arts.

This news is not a secret, and it has already been spread privately by the servants of the Li family.

So there are not many people who know the news.

At this moment, many people are surrounding him, complimenting him from time to time.

For such a fierce man, becoming a guardian is a certainty, and he might be accepted as a disciple by the instructor or enshrined.

With such a prospect status, it is naturally worthwhile for them to establish a good relationship as soon as possible and pay more attention to them.

And Wei Song is obviously very useful for this.

There was a hint of pride on his face, he patted his chest with a smile on his face, and spoke boldly to everyone.

Egret didn't care about this.

Quietly waiting in the corner.

Not long after, a coach walked into the martial arts arena with great horsepower.

Concisely and concisely explained the content of the assessment to the crowd.
