ved with bluestone. The bell tower is made of mahogany and jujube wood. The big bell is made of bronze. Ringing the big bell can also ward off evil spirits.
The town is surrounded by city walls made of rammed earth, which are divided into four directions: southeast, northwest and northwest. There is a duty pavilion in each direction; but there are only two city gates on the east and west sides, and there are none on the north and south sides.
The duty pavilion is also made of mahogany or jujube wood. The pavilion is fully enclosed, but there is a window on all four sides. The window is not large. When on duty at night, under normal circumstances, only the side facing the outside of the city needs to be opened.
In each pavilion, there will be a shrine in the center. There is a ceramic statue in the shrine, facing the outside of the city. There will be an incense burner around the statue, with three pillars of incense in each burner. There is a light smell of incense lingering in the pavilion. . On the upper left side of the shrine hangs a bronze bell the size of a bowl, which was used to alert the city.
There will be three or four people on duty in each pavilion at night, holding weapons made of peach or jujube wood. However, the pavilions will be equipped with multiple weapons, including iron, bronze and other metal weapons. Weapons made of mahogany or jujube wood are relatively powerful against ghosts, but have limited effect on monsters. At this time, metal weapons are needed.
In the east gate pavilion, Wang Dong tightened his clothes and said, “Brothers, it’s raining heavily today, so everyone’s tactics will be better.” ”
Chongjiu, put on your raincoat and follow me out for patrol; brothers Liu Zhong and Gao Luo , take a rest in the house first, and come out to replace us.”
“Brother Dong, thank you for your hard work, pay attention to safety. If you encounter danger, call your brothers at any time.”
Wang Dong laughed, and asked Wang Chongjiu to leave the pavilion and patrol the city wall.
The same scene happened in the duty booths in the other three directions.
On the city wall, there is a small shrine every ten meters. There is a clay statue in the shrine, but there is no incense in front of the statue.
“Chongjiu, check the shrine carefully to see if it has been wet by the rain. With this damn weather, if the statue gets wet, we will be in big trouble!” “Hehe… Brother Dong, don’t worry, our shrine is under
construction Just consider rainproofing when you go there,
and there won’t be any problems.” “Stop talking nonsense, check carefully, if something goes wrong, not only you and me will be in danger, but the people in the city don’t know how many people will die!” Wang Dong looked at Wang Chongjiu casually. It looks like it’s just a kick when you go up.
“Brother Dong, spare your life, I’ll check carefully right now.” Wang Chongjiu dodged Wang Dong’s kick with a playful smile and promised.
Wang Dong didn’t really want to kick him, so when he saw him dodge, he didn’t say anything more.
“Brother Dong, it’s bad, this shrine is broken, and the statue has been soaked by the rain!”
Wang Dong was looking around with a mahogany sword in his hand, and was suddenly startled!
“What, let me take a look, damn!” Wang Dong observed the shrine carefully, with cold sweat on his head. I just hope that nothing weird has sneaked into the city yet.
“Chongjiu, go and ask for a wooden statue of a god, then sound the alarm and ask the watchman to step up patrols. Go and come back quickly!” ”
Yes, Brother Dong; be careful.” Wang Chongjiu did not dare to neglect, turned around and said to Run to the duty booth.
Wang Dong held a mahogany sword in his right hand, and quickly took out an evil-proofing talisman from his arms with his left hand, placed it in the shrine, temporarily replacing the statue, and stared vigilantly outside the city.
“Brother Zhong, hurry up and give me a wooden statue. One of the statues is wet; in addition, please sound the alarm and call the bell tower.” Wang Chongjiu rushed into the pavilion and grabbed Liu Zhong who was nearby.

Liu Zhong did not dare to neglect, and quickly took out a spare wooden statue from the corner cabinet and handed it to Wang Chongjiu, while Gao Luo had already rang the bronze bell in the pavilion.
At this time, in the city, on the bell tower, the bronze bell hanging in the east began to ring, “Dang… Dang…”.
Several people sitting cross-legged and meditating in the clock tower opened their eyes instantly.
“Third uncle, the Eastern bell rings twice, low-level risk.” Wang Jiao said in a low voice.
“Well, it’s in the direction of Dong’er. Liu Ji, Gao Feng, and Tian Chong, the three of you go to the Dongcheng area to check the situation!” An old man opened his eyes, his eyes flickering, and he looked in the direction of the east gate.
The old man is Wang Hao, the third younger brother of the current head of the Wang family. He is currently over fifty years old, but he has profound internal energy, practices the Zhiyang Heart Method, and has natural restraint against evil spirits. He is currently the top three masters of the Wang family, and is also the king of Wangjia Town. The person in charge of the bell tower garrison.
“Yes, sir!” Three of them quickly stood up, put on their raincoats, and left the clock tower with weapons in hand, heading for the East City area.
At this time in the Xicheng area, there was a faint sedan moving on the road. The sedan was floating without anyone lifting it. There was a maid on the left and right sides of the sedan. The maid was dressed in white and her face could not be seen clearly.
“Miss, the east side of the city finally found out. I saw that there were already people patrolling the east side of the clock tower. Miss is so wise. Who would have thought that we came in from the east side and went directly to the west side!” “Well, Xiaocui, Xiaohong, be careful
. Look, the lady is going to enjoy the blood food tonight. Hehe…” A creepy voice came from the sedan.
“Hehe…yes, miss!”
Chapter 4 The God of the Land shows his power for the first time
The heavy rain was pouring down, and many houses with thatched roofs in the west of the city began to leak indoors.
There was a house only a hundred meters away from the city gate. At this time, through the heavy rain, I could vaguely see the faint light inside through the window.
“Master, this way…here…slow down, be careful, don’t miss the mark…” The female voice sounded anxious and nervous.
“It’s okay, hold on to the oil lamp and don’t spill it. We’re just lighting up the oil. I don’t know if we can hold on tonight. There’s no problem here.” The man stood on a table and said again and again. The thatch in his hand was stuffed into the leaking spot on the roof, blocking the gap.
The man in his forties, wearing simple linen clothes, jumped down from the table and took back the oil lamp from the woman’s hand. “You go to bed first. I’ll tidy up the floor and then go to sleep. Make sure Chun’er doesn’t wake up.” , He has to go to private school tomorrow, it’s damn heavy rain.”
“It rained too much this time. We just laid new thatch on the roof a few days ago, but unexpectedly it still leaked! Alas…” the man complained. .
At this time, the man lowered his eyes and saw that the wooden shrine that originally protected the statue fell on the table. It was probably that he accidentally knocked it down just now.
There is a hole right above the statue, where rain is leaking down.
“No…mother, hurry…quickly…take out our incense stick, hurry up…” There was infinite fear in the man’s voice.
“Master, what’s wrong…” The woman was startled and saw the man’s pale face.
“The statue is soaked by water. Take out the incense quickly and light it as an offering. I hope it will be useful.” The man suppressed the fear in his heart and said.
The woman was frighten
