Chapter 66: Sturdy Bed
At this time, Yan Xu had just finished burning incense to Guan Erye. In order to prevent the statue from being destroyed, he specially invited Guan Erye to guard the castle tower. After all, the temple can be rebuilt but the statue is hard to find. The same treatment also happened to Hong Gui. Now she has become the gatekeeper of the castle tower and is eating pork elbow with a newly made mace.
With the blessing of Lord Guan, Yan Xu felt much more stable.
In fact, he really didn't burn incense much in his previous life. Occasionally when he traveled and passed by a temple, he would just follow the crowd to worship. To be said, he was definitely not very pious. After all, the merit boxes were all affixed with QR codes. With further development, I'm afraid that cyber temples will come out. By then, everyone will worship the digital Buddha together and download the anti-virus Vajra and the network protection Arhat.
After traveling through time, Yan Xu was alone and had no one to rely on. He was filled with fear and anxiety. He could still endure these in the more familiar modern world, but when he arrived in the Japanese world full of monsters and demons, he could no longer hold back and began to worship Master Guan.
In any case, the fact that he still has the courage to stay is enough to prove that he has changed a lot.
Yan Xu began to organize his new equipment. There was no change in his weapons. They were still the steel mace and the Mo Dao. With his unremitting training, these two weapons could already exert 30% to 40% of their power. Although not much, the amount was there. Anyone who didn't scream in pain after being hit by one would be dead.
Yan Xu was mainly familiar with the new armor. The armor carefully crafted by the Huo family father and son adopted the beautiful and practical Ming Guang armor shape. That is, there were two large plates on the chest and back to enhance the defense, while other parts were mainly fish scale armor.
Because Yan Xu required it to be quick and easy to use, and time was insufficient, it could not be made completely according to the ancient method, so the Huo father and son made some improvements.
The entire set of armor is made of soft calfskin on the inside, with a layer of wire mesh in the middle to enhance toughness and defense, and then large armor plates and fish scale armor plates are fixed on it.
Although the overall defensive effect is not as good as the infantry armor with stacked armor plates, it is still good, both strong and flexible.
And because it has been redesigned, the armor can be put on directly and then adjusted by pulling the built-in belt. Not only can it be worn alone, it is also not slow.
After dinner, Yan Xu had no intention of staying up late. This war was bound to be a protracted one, and there was no point in staying up late, so he wanted to sleep.
As for whether his men could protect his safety, considering that there were hundreds of people outside the bedroom, and the hatamoto who took turns guarding the castle tower day and night, as well as the guardian ninja hiding in the dark, this was already the best he could do at the moment, not to mention the many traps in the bedroom.
Yan Xu's bedroom is very big, big enough for playing basketball, so there are many tatami mats inside. However, some of the tatami mats can be stepped on, but some cannot be stepped on because there are firecrackers underneath. When stepped on, they will make a noise, just like the sound of breaking cups. In a blink of an eye, dozens of knifemen rushed out from the next door and chopped the invaders into meat paste.
Originally, Yan Xu planned to get some nail boards and nested bows, but thinking about the fact that he would sleep here every day, if he got horny and had sex with a girl and triggered the trap, he would probably become the most speechless person to die among all the travelers in the universe.
Although there are no lethal traps, there are plenty of other traps. There is also a dragnet set up in the bedroom with criss-crossing fishing lines. The slightest touch will make the firecrackers make a crisp sound, which has the same effect as throwing firecrackers.
This kind of trap was set up because Yan Xu knew very well that no trap would work against an enemy that could not be dealt with by hundreds of flag bearers. So instead of relying on traps to kill the enemy, it would be better to wait for rescue. Therefore, he specially asked someone to make a sturdy bed.
That's right, in order to prevent someone from dying in his sleep, Yan Xu specially built a sturdy bed. The overall structure can be compared to a tortoise shell, that is, the internal welded steel bar frame, the external double-layer cowhide plus wire mesh, after opening it, lie down in it, and then close the lid, there is a hidden button inside to lock it, as for breathing, there are small windows covered by wire mesh on both sides, and the interior is also equipped with a shutter design, so that even the blowgun poison needle cannot shoot in.
Just to be on the safe side, Yan Xu even placed gas masks and fire extinguishers inside. In any case, it would be enough to sustain him until his men arrived or he could return to the modern world directly.
The shape of the quilt is not good-looking, but it makes people feel very secure. It’s just a little troublesome to get up to urinate in the middle of the night. If you are not careful, it will be an emergency drill at night. You might even scare yourself and wet your pants. So before going to bed every day, in addition to drinking less water, you should try to urinate as cleanly as possible.
After releasing it into the toilet, pulling up his pants and carefully avoiding the trap, Yan Xu got into bed, closed the lid, fastened the secret button and pushed hard. Feeling the firmness of the bed, he felt relieved. Then he checked the survival equipment fixed on one side one by one, including the gas mask, small fire extinguisher, steel mace, crossbow, compressed biscuits, drinking water, etc.
After checking everything, Yan Xu turned off the flashlight and went to sleep.
The leech hiding in the dark was a little speechless, but it must be said that this caution reduced the difficulty of her guarding work.
What a guardian ninja fears most is encountering a target who has no idea what he is protecting. All kinds of suicidal behaviors can drive people crazy. The new head of the Moroboshi family, who has joined her, has given her excellent treatment and is very cooperative. He has a regular life and no bad habits, and he doesn't even look for women. If she hadn't seen him doing handicrafts, she would have suspected that there was something wrong with the head of the family.
In addition, he is indeed worthy of being an adult. In addition to his height and long legs, he is really big.
I don't know what he was thinking about, but the leech's originally pale face turned slightly red, and then he couldn't help but reach into his arms, took out a black thing, put it in his mouth and took a bite.
This is a special ration pill made by Leech. It is made of donkey-hide gelatin, brown sugar, black sesame, glutinous rice and honey. After mixing and boiling, it is cooled and rolled into long strips. With her ability, she can swallow it in one gulp. One pill is better than three pills and is enough to meet her needs for one day during the mission.
But you can't eat it often, otherwise the beauty will get constipated. Therefore, after the task is completed, leeches will usually eat more fiber-rich foods to clean the stomach.
Now is not a fighting period, there is no need to eat quickly, so Leech savors the food slowly, taking small bites at a time.
The taste of donkey-hide gelatin is not very good, but leeches have eaten things that taste even more disgusting. Moreover, after adding brown sugar, black sesame seeds, glutinous rice and honey, the taste is not only good but also very good. It is better than ordinary snacks. For her who is often in a state of anemia, it is a rare delicacy, especially compared with the Bingliang pills she had eaten before.
Bingliangwan is the emergency food of the ninja. Given the wealth of the ninja, there are naturally not many particular requirements. Generally, they will grind any grains they can find into powder, fry them, and then roll them into balls that are easy to carry and store.
The taste is not delicious. If conditions permit, people will add a little honey and other auxiliary ingredients, which is already a rare enjoyment. Most of the time, it is just used to maintain life.
After eating, the leech licked her fingers. Just when she was about to take a nap, her ears moved and she looked up in the direction of the mountain because she heard the sound of the trap being triggered.
