This time when he came home, Wang Zhong only felt that his parents were walking very slowly. Compared with the previous appearance of being lively, it was completely two people's appearance.

Along the way, many people didn't say hello when they saw them, and turned the corner like avoiding the plague God.

Wang Zhong lamented that Lin Zhou and Lin Wu, the father and daughter, were also dragged home by Lin Wu's mother. Obviously, although Lin Zhou still had brotherhood, Lin Wu's mother took him home out of consideration of the overall situation.

The reason is self-evident.

Back home, the originally bustling Jixiang Inn was now empty. Even the housekeeper and several servants looked at Wang Zhong with pity and pity.

"As a short-lived person, it seems to be really miserable." Wang Zhong shook his head with emotion.

However, he is not worried. He is still young and there are more than ten years before his twenty-one birthday. During this period, he can completely cultivate himself.

At that time, if the evil thing wants to take his life, it depends on whether he has this ability.

"Son!"

After returning home, Zhao Dahai closed the door, and Wei Yan looked at Wang Chong, who was only about one meter tall.

"My poor son, what should I do now, sobbing..." Wei Yan is a woman after all, and she can't help crying at the moment.

"Cry, shut up, don't you think our family is unlucky?" Zhao Dahai is usually gentle, and he won't get angry no matter how big things happen.

But this time, he couldn't help it.

With that, Zhao Dahai covered his chest, coughed a few words, and cursed in a low voice, "that dog day Master Wu was so cruel that I was almost kicked to pieces by him."

"Dad, are you all right? Let me show you." Wang Chong walked over.

Zhao Dahai waved his hand: "although I'm old, I know in my heart that I can't die, but you, ah... You also know before that the Linggen number represents your living longevity..."

"Haven't we begged Linggen ash from the master before? It should be useful if Xiao Dong drinks it." Wei Yan said anxiously.

Zhao Dahai gritted his teeth and said, "it seems that that thing didn't work."

"Mom and Dad, don't worry. I still believe that man will conquer nature." Wang Zhong said solemnly.

"Hey, hope, but son, don't worry, even if others ignore you, your father I won't give you up, even if you can only live to 20 years old, I will let you live well."

Zhao Dahai said, turning out a wooden box from the room, which was actually neatly placed thousands of liang of silver.

"Hey, these possessions were originally passed on to you after I died, but they have been so that I can't keep them."

"Dad, what are you doing with this silver?" Wang Zhong was puzzled.

"There is an unwritten rule in the city that short-lived people should go out of the city to join the guide team ten years before their death."

"Guide team?"

"Well, I didn't explain to you before because I didn't think it was necessary, but now I can't help it. The so-called guide team is the person who attracts evil things. Because there has been peace in our city, there are few evil things. On the one hand, there are masters in charge, and evil things can't invade the city, on the other hand, it is the guide team."

"These guide teams are all joined by people who have not lived long. The purpose is to get out of the city and attract those evil things away from here. For example, the random burial hill where evil things have caused chaos in recent years, gaojiazhuang, is headed by many guide team people to lead evil things elsewhere, so peace has been maintained here."

"No wonder the people who lead the team are very dangerous." Wang chongdao.

"Well, so those who join the guide team are those who don't have many Shouyuan. Xiao Dong, you're only seven years old now. When you're fifteen, I'm afraid you'll also join the guide team. This is the city master's rule. Even if I don't want you to join, you must go, otherwise you will be regarded as disobeying the imperial court's order..."

"Dad, mom, don't worry, I'm not afraid."

He had intended to find a way out of the city when he grew up, but now it seems that he doesn't need to find a way.

"My poor child, joining the guide team is equivalent to pinning her head on her pants, hey..." Wei Yan couldn't help wiping her tears again.

"Xiao Dong, I will invite master Gao to come over these days. Anyway, you can learn a few tricks around him. After you are 15 years old, you can also protect yourself."

Wang Zhong nodded slightly. It would be great to have the master teach him.

Seeing that his son looked so calm, Zhao Dahai felt a little comforted, "it's a pity that after you become a short-lived person, I'm afraid you will marry Lin Wu..."

"It's okay. Everyone likes longevity. My longevity is short. I'm afraid no one will marry me." Wang Zhong comforted.

"Xiao Dong, it's good if you think so, but my father will try to get you married before you die. Lin Wu doesn't want to marry, and I'll find another woman..."

Then, Zhao Dahai told some, and went out to find master Gao.

Master Gao is said to be a casual practitioner in the city. He doesn't have many skills. Compared with master Bai and Master Wu, he is far away.

But for city people, master Bai and Master Wu can't be hired at all, so they can only ask Master Gao for help.

…………

A month passed in the blink of an eye. It is said that the grand master has been busy recently and has not come. Wang Chong can only practice by himself.

Now Wang Chong has installed several wooden stakes and boxing sandbags in the backyard of Zhao's house. He trains day and night every day. As for the outside, he has never gone out during the day, and only sneaks out with Zhao Rong at night.

"Bang bang!" Fists hit the sandbag like raindrops. This sandbag is only made of gunny bags filled with some soil. Although it is simple, it is very strong.

But no matter how strong it was, under Wang Chong's heavy fist, the sandbag broke again, and all the sand and soil in it flowed down.

Wang Chong gasped slightly. Just as he was about to rest, he saw a charming figure sneaking in.

"Lin Wu, why are you here?" Wang Chong looked at the door and saw Lin Wu coming quietly, looking behind him from time to time.

"Let me see you." Lin Wu made sure there was no one behind him, and then walked in.

"I'm a short-lived person, but I'm unlucky."

"It's just an erroneous message. Anyway, I've been measured to be level 7 of Linggen, so I'm not afraid." Lin Wu looked at Wang Chong with soft eyes, "sorry."

"Why do you say sorry to me?" Wang chongle felt that this woman was very interesting.

"You were measured to be Linggen Level 2 that day. I left directly. Don't misunderstand me. I was dragged back by my mother."

Wang Zhong's heart warmed: "Yeah, but I also understand that I'm short-lived after all."

"But after all, I'm engaged to you. To be honest, my mother really doesn't agree with our marriage, but... But my father and I both think people should keep their promises. Don't worry, Xiao Dong. I won't give up on you. I'm just a widow. I can stand it..."
