After the rebirth, the cannon fodder left the plot

Chapter 21 Sorry, no experience
"Starting tomorrow, regardless of whether your family lacks food or not, you will dig some wild vegetables when you come back from work. In addition, strangers are not allowed to enter and leave the village. Starting tonight, each family will arrange for a person to patrol the village in turn. The two gongs are held by patrolling people, and if strangers enter the village or something happens, the gongs will be sounded as a warning.”

Listening to his arrangement, the men from each family nodded quickly, but none of them refuted.

Although Shen Jingcheng, the chief of the village, is young, everyone has seen his ability in the past few years. Besides, they also think that this arrangement is very good. It is all for the safety of the villagers, and no one will be stupid to sing against it at this time .

After everything was discussed, Shen Jingcheng took a few men and moved one of the elm trees in front of his house to the center of the village, hung a copper bell on the tree, and arranged for people to guard it, in case the patrolling people did not have time to warn everyone when something happened. .

Gu Jin looked at this elm tree that had been gnawed down to only a few green leaves by locusts, and felt very distressed.

The elm tree just yielded elm money this year, and she had only eaten the elm money meal once, so she actually moved, and she didn't know if she could still live.

There is an extra tree in the center of the village, and there is an extra bell on the tree. The children are wandering around under the tree curiously, and they don't need to be instructed by adults at all, and they love each other very much.

They also know that this tree will bear elm money, even if the adults in the family don't let it, they have secretly picked it a few times while Shen Jingcheng and Gu Jin were not at home, the elm money is sweet and fragrant.

This tree is planted here, and they should be able to pick it when they get elm money in the future, right?
If they climbed the tree and the tree didn't come back to life, wouldn't they have one less thing to eat?
Everything was properly arranged. From that night onwards, the villagers began to divide their labor and patrol. During the day, people still cleaned up the crops that had been bitten by locusts. As for the stubble that can't catch the grain.

At the same time, the women will also order the children who can't do much work to dig some wild vegetables and go home, but in fact, the wild vegetables in the field are almost eaten by locusts, and they can't dig much back.

Sure enough, after the villagers came and went in and out like this for a few days, the refugees gradually stopped approaching the village, followed by figures of looking for wild vegetables in the wilderness like those children.

When night watchmen saw that the refugees were no longer approaching the village, they relaxed their patrols.

One night, Shen Jingcheng suddenly heard movement in the yard, quietly got up and opened the door, and saw a figure rattling the door in front of the grain storage room.

Afraid of scaring the sleeping Gu Jin, Shen Jingcheng gently covered her ears with a quilt, picked up the wooden stick behind the door and walked out quietly.

The man who was concentrating on opening the door didn't notice Shen Jingcheng's arrival at all, he only heard the sound of piercing wind behind his head, and he didn't even have time to react before he knew anything.

After Shen Jingcheng knocked the person unconscious, he picked up the person with a stick in one hand and walked out of the yard. He didn't throw the person to the ground until he was about tens of meters away from the yard, and poked him awake with a wooden stick.

The man woke up slowly, feeling that his head was pinned to the ground by something and he couldn't move. In the dark, a figure who was not too tall was holding a wooden stick to his forehead.

"How did you come here?" A young boy's voice that hadn't changed yet sounded.

The man knew that this was a boy from this family. He had observed it before he came and knew that there were only two children in this family. He also thought that the children were easy to deceive, so he snorted coldly: "Boy, be sensible and let me go. I don't care about you, if you don't let me go, I will find someone to kill you and your little daughter-in-law together."

Shen Jingcheng's eyes turned cold when he heard the words, he held the wooden stick against his forehead, and slowly took two steps back, just when the man thought that the boy was scared by him and wanted to leave, he didn't want the boy to suddenly pick up the stick and hit him in the stomach down.

With a muffled sound from Peng, the man immediately bowed his body with a scream, but as if the stick didn't know he was in pain, it was swung into the air again, and hit his mouth with the sound of wind.

There was another muffled sound, and the man lost his voice instantly in pain, and the bloody breath filled his mouth.

"I'm sorry, I haven't killed anyone before, I'm inexperienced for the first time, please forgive me." Shen Jingcheng said forgiveness, but slowly raised the stick and swung it into the air.

Seeing that the stick was about to hit his leg, the man was so frightened that he quickly retracted his legs, turned around and was about to get up and run, but the stick hit his back with a bang, and the man fell to the ground with a plop.

"What are you running for? Look, you won't be happy if you die like this, and I have to work harder. It's very troublesome." In the night, the voice of the boy resounded faintly. The man just climbed two steps in horror when he saw a pair of feet slowly Standing in front of him, he was so frightened that he lay on the ground and kowtowed.

"Spare me, spare me." The man begged for mercy repeatedly.

"I dare not spare you, you are the one who wants to kill me." Shen Jingcheng said coldly, and raised the stick again.

"No, I dare not, I'm talking nonsense." The man was so frightened that tears flowed down his face, his eyes full of fear.

"Nonsense?" Shen Jingcheng seemed slightly puzzled, the man nodded repeatedly, trembling but unable to say anything.

He didn't want to kill anyone, he really just wanted to scare the boy, who would have thought that the boy would take it seriously.

Seeing this, Shen Jingcheng seemed to believe him, slowly retracted the wooden stick, and asked: "Then let me ask again, how did you come here?"

The man didn't dare to talk nonsense this time, and quickly pointed to the place behind Shimu Village, where he came from.

"Isn't someone patrolling? They didn't find you?" Shen Jingcheng asked again.

"They don't patrol this way very much." The man replied tremblingly, for fear that he would swing his stick again if he answered too late.

"Not too patrolling this way?" Shen Jingcheng frowned, his tone somewhat disbelieving.

"Really, you can go and see." The man raised his hand in fright and swore: "They only patrolled here for the first two days, but they didn't come here much after that, I swear."

Shen Jingcheng threw the wooden stick to the ground and felt it was funny.

He knew that it was impossible for him to take Gu Jin on patrol, so he bought a copper gong and a copper bell on purpose, but he got a warning from him and used his things to treat him like this?

He didn't move, and the man didn't dare to move, and he didn't know how long it took before the man heard the youth's clear voice again.

"get out."

Hearing the words, the man seemed to be pardoned, got up in embarrassment and ran down the slope, while Shen Jingcheng also turned around and went back to the yard, sat on the kang and stared at Gu Jin for a long time before pressing down on the back of her neck, using a piece of clothing to wrap the trapped Sleeping, she was tied to her back, and she carried her into the night.

He had to see with his own eyes whether things were really as the man said.
