This is not a weird story

After speculating for a long time, Yuan Cong guessed that he might have given too much "wet coal" last time, which caused the guardian at the well to take more care of Wei An.

Otherwise, the guardian may have started to pay attention to security, so he took the initiative to help.

If it's the latter, then Wei An himself should start to be more careful, because attracting the attention of the guardian at the well can be a big or small matter, and nothing can be done carelessly.

After everyone gathered together to discuss, they probably made a salvage plan for the next round.

According to Yuan Cong, the bloody guardian at the well is very powerful, stronger than other guardians. He has the ability to change the things salvaged from the well, just like last time he seemed to salvage strange objects, but was The guardian directly blocks it.

In addition, this guardian also has the ability to see who is displeased and directly give the opponent a greater chance of salvaging meat balls or weird things.

I don’t know how this guy did it, but Wei An suspected that this guy had more or less power given by the rules, allowing him to better control the rhythm of providing nourishment to the person in the temple.

With the plan in place, the next step is a long wait, waiting for another group of slaves to salvage, and then some people come back, some get meat balls, and some people are killed when they salvage weird things next to the well, and their bodies are dragged away Went to the ancestral hall.

Soon it was their turn again.

This time, everyone did not stand together, but kept a few people's distance between them.

In this way, when they all get the meat balls, others will not be suspicious.

Yuan Cong was at the front of the team because he knew how to bribe the guardians, and he also wanted to set an example for everyone in the front.

Jin Mingfei and Feng Yiren were close to each other, with only one slave between them. The purpose was to let Jin Mingfei take care of Feng Yiren and prevent him from failing to do any steps.

Wei An walked at the end of the team to ensure that everyone could finish successfully this time.

Salvage work soon began.

Soon it was the turn of the slave in the wooden cage where Wei An was, and Yuan Cong took action first. He quietly opened the oilcloth he had prepared long ago, took out the last bit of wet coal and placed it not far from his feet.

How sensitive is the guardian? Immediately he felt the small piece of wet coal, and walked out of the hidden darkness and came to Yuan Cong's side.

Without looking at anyone, he immediately knelt down and picked up the body parts.

However, it can be felt that the bloody aura on this guy's body has become much lighter at this moment, revealing an uncontrollable greed.

The moment he picked up the wet coal, Yuan Cong said softly: "A meat ball."

The guardian was slightly startled, obviously not expecting that the other party would make such a request.

He said nothing, just put the wet coal into his robe and walked back.

This guardian is also different from other patrolling guardians. He did not eat the wet coal immediately after picking it up, but took it directly and prepared to enjoy it later.

It can be seen that he is indeed stronger, and his control over wet coal is much stronger than other guardians.

Soon it was Yuan Cong's turn to step forward to salvage.

Shortly after he threw the bucket down and started to shake the handle at the wellhead, the guardian who had collected the wet coal appeared again. He came to the well like last time and leaned his upper body to the wellhead to look inside.

Yuan Cong's shaking handle suddenly sank slightly, and he suddenly knew something in his heart.

Soon the guardian was back in the darkness.

Yuan Cong's bucket was shaken to the mouth of the well. After lifting the bucket to the ground, he looked inside and saw a ball of earth-yellow meat floating on the half bucket of water.

Yuan Cong still pretended to struggle for a moment, then gritted his teeth and took out the meat ball, and left with a bitter look on his face.

However, he just left the small square and did not go far. Instead, he waited for others on his way back.

After passing a few people, when it was Feng Yiren's turn, he also followed what Yuan Cong had just done. While the person in front was still salvaging, he took out the wet coal from the oilcloth strip and placed it at his feet.

The guardian in the darkness appears again.

He arrived next to Feng Yiren, but this time he did not immediately bend down to pick up the "food". Instead, he seemed to be looking at Feng Yiren through the dark eyes under the hood.

Feng Yiren was heartbroken when the other party saw him, his body trembled slightly, and he said softly: "One...one...meat ball."

The guardian was silent for a moment, and finally bent down to pick up the wet coal, put it in his robe and returned.

However, he did not return to the darkness, but walked directly to the well, as if waiting for Feng Yiren to come forward.

But at this moment, the slave in front of Feng Yiren was unlucky. The salvaged bucket shook violently at the mouth of the well, and it was obvious that something was squirming and jumping inside.

The slave was so frightened that he let go of the shaking handle. With a bang, the bucket fell back into the well, making a loud noise. It was clear that there was something else inside besides water.

The next second, the robe of the guardian standing by the wellhead shook, and a metal spear was taken out, and the blunt end hit the slave hard on the head.

The slave didn't even hum. His brain suddenly exploded and he died miserably on the spot.

The robe shook again and the metal spear was put in. The guardian bent down, grabbed the slave body and dragged it into the darkness.

The red and white liquid beside the well was still flowing, which frightened Feng Yiren.

The ground around the well was originally filthy, as slaves were often killed in strange ways, making it sticky when stepped on. Now that Feng Yiren saw his last person die so tragically, Feng Yiren couldn't help but feel nervous.

But he discovered that the guardian who dragged away the body never showed up.

When Jin Mingfei saw this scene from behind, his heart skipped a beat and he secretly thought something was wrong.

If the guardian didn't show up to operate the well, Feng Yiren might not know what would be salvaged.

But it was impossible to wait for the guardian all the time. The slave behind Feng Yiren was already urging him, and it was normal for the guardian not to show up. He usually stayed in the dark.

Feng Yiren had no choice but to step forward. He didn't even need to throw the bucket into the well because it had already fallen. He directly grabbed the handle and quickly started shaking it.

Wow…

The bucket was obviously shaking, and it was quickly retrieved halfway by Feng Yiren.

However, Feng Yiren's expression has changed. It's not that there is nothing in the bucket, but that there is something, but this thing makes the bucket shake violently. This shows that it is not a meat ball, but most likely the slave in front of him just now. Put it down - weird!

While fishing upwards, Feng Yiren turned his head and glanced into the darkness, but there was still no reaction there.

Although Wei An couldn't see clearly where the wellhead was, he still noticed something was wrong. Even his palms were sweating while waiting.

Jin Mingfei could see clearly that the bucket was about to float out of the well, but he still didn't see the guardian appear, as if the guy was dragging the body to do something else.

Either he deliberately hid in the darkness and did not appear, or it was because the previous slave happened to have not completed the salvage, so according to regulations, the unfinished work must be taken over by the next one. Even the guardians cannot interfere with this rule.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why the guy took Feng Yiren's wet coal and didn't do anything.

The bucket was fished out to the wellhead. Feng Yiren grabbed the bucket and lifted it to the ground. The guardian still hasn't appeared until now.

Feng Yiren had just placed the bucket when a scarlet tongue the size of an arm shot out of the water and licked his cheek.
