Chapter 1231：

The night became darker.

In a remote base city in Long Country, beside Quanshu City, there is a weird forest.

This forest is very close to Quanshu City.

According to the base city maintenance regulations issued by Long Kingdom, the forests within ten miles of the base city must be regularly felled and the monsters inside must be cleared out.

The first reason for this ordinance is that after regularly cleaning up the monsters around the base city, it can enhance the safety of the base city and reduce the pressure of high-wall city defense at various time periods!

The second reason is to prevent the monster sea ghost tide from silently killing under the high wall under the shelter of the forest.

When it comes to life and death matters, every base city in the country has basically implemented it thoroughly.

But now it seems that this geographically remote Quanshu City is undoubtedly an exception.

This vast forest is only about 300 meters away from the high walls of Quanshu City.

The whole forest was filled with thick dark yellow fog.

Even with the blowing of the night breeze, there was a rotten, pungent smell, drifting from the forest side to the high wall.

The spiritual masters who were stationed on the high wall of Quanshu City couldn't help frowning.

This smell is... the smell of corpses! !

Tonight on duty on the city wall are the first and second teams of the Demon Bureau of Quanshu City.

The twenty-odd people of the two teams shuddered after smelling the smell, some of the newly added reserve psychics.

They all thought of the customs and habits that have always existed in Quanshu City.

These newcomers couldn't help looking at the Master Yu Ling who was teaching beside them, and found that their master and team leader were quite calm, and they were relieved.

The captain of the first team is a bald middle-aged man in his forties, named He Zhenping, with a fifth-sequence nightmare level strength.

The figure is fairly strong, with a cloud of smoke dangling.

He stood beside the wall of the high wall and waved his hands to the players behind him: "You follow the original route and continue patrolling!"

"I'm smoking a cigarette here, staring at the forest!"

"Yes, captain!" The players behind him all responded.

The captain of the second team is called Shao Ding.

He is a thin man in his twenties who is quite taciturn.

A demon spirit fluctuation also reached the fifth sequence nightmare level.

Shao Ding waved his hand to the front of the players behind him.

The subordinates immediately understood the meaning, and just like the members of the first team, they carried out the night patrol on their own.

Shao Ding came to He Zhenping and stood still. On his silent face and stern eyes, he stared at the forest three hundred meters away.

He Zhenping tilted his head and glanced at him, took out the cigarette case and lighter from his pocket, and handed it to Shao Ding.

Shao Ding hesitated for a while. After taking it, he took out one and lit it on.

He Zhenping took the cigarette case and lighter that were returned.

He suddenly felt that the man in front of him had just been transferred from another base city, and he had been cold-faced for a month. The guy in the bureau was not very popular, and he didn't seem to be so unkind.

Smoking cigarettes together, the relationship between the two team leaders immediately became much more harmonious.

He Zhenping took the lead in opening the chat box: "Xiao Shao, have you seen the forest?"

Shao Ding nodded, and replied in a deep voice: "This is our Quanshu City..."

He Zhenping quickly stopped and said, "Don't talk about the name taboo!"

"Although this forest has helped us in Quanshu City to block many demons and ghosts, the name of this forest has always been one of the taboos of our locals!"

"It hasn't been long since you came here. No matter what you see on the files in the bureau, you must remember that you can't mention the name of this forest in front of anyone!"

"Especially some families have... relatives, in front of the relatives and people lying inside!"

"If you accidentally bring it up, nothing will end up in the game by then!"

Shao Ding nodded.

He knew that He Zhenping was kind, and he was telling him some taboos that he needed to know about working in this base city.

Shao Ding said with a cold face, but said seriously: "Thank you!"

He Zhenping had some accidents.

He didn't expect this cold-faced young man, although he was not very smooth, he still knew the etiquette.

After the impression in his heart was good, He Zhenping talked more.

"Do you know why the locals are so taboo about this forest?"

He took a puff of cigarette and exhaled the smoke ring.

In the sight of the two of them, the circle of smoke drifted in the direction of the dark yellow dense fog forest in the distance.

It seems that the gray-white smoke ring hides the woods.

This brought deep fear to all the people and locals in Quanshu City, and even the forest, which was not even mentioned by the name, was covered up.

Let's make a blind eye!

Shao Ding also took a cigarette, shook his head, and listened silently.

He Zhenping was in his forties, and there were a lot of wrinkles on his forehead and on the corners of his eyes.

The bald condition also made his face more vicissitudes of life.

He sighed and said, "Oh, because that forest has swallowed too many corpses and lives of local people!"

Hear this,

Shao Ding's gaze suddenly magnified.

The hand holding the cigarette shuddered, and the ashes fell.

Shao Ding frowned slightly and asked, "Isn't that forest blocking a lot of demons and ghosts for us in Quanshu City?"
