Song Jiang followed the middle-aged man and found that he was walking in the wheat field with brisk steps and steady breathing. He must be in good physical condition... If he really started to fight, he would definitely not be his opponent, so he deliberately said with a surprised look on his face,

"You are looking at such a large area of ​​land by yourself?! Besides, what is there to see in this land? Are there still people coming to steal food now?"

The middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "No one must have stolen the food, but there are sheep and cattle farmers nearby, and wild boars occasionally appear... If no one is watching, these animals will destroy the crops.

"

In order to make the trick more realistic, Song Jiang didn't forget to take out his mobile phone and look around and said, "Brother, there is no mobile phone signal here? It shouldn't be? It's not too far from the city..."

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "There used to be... but then that thing called a base station was dismantled for some unknown reason. Besides, this land is all cropland, so it's superfluous to need a mobile phone signal!"

Song Jiang smiled awkwardly after hearing this and said, "It's really not superfluous... Nowadays, everyone has a mobile phone. If you go out to play, you will get lost like me. As long as the mobile phone has a signal, you can open the navigation to find the route. How convenient.

!”

Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man didn't take it seriously and said, "That thing is of no use here... This is a wheat field. You only need to go out and find the way."

When Song Jiang heard that, he nodded and said, "That makes sense... but this cropland is too big. I can't tell the difference between east, west and north as soon as I come in."

"It's okay... The place where I live is just ahead. You can rest there for a while... I will take you out later." The middle-aged man said with a sincere face.

While the two were talking, a small bungalow appeared in front of them. There were wooden tables and chairs in front of the house, and there were a few big roosters around. They were leisurely eating small caterpillars in the ground. When they heard the noise, they all

He raised his head and looked over... They were just a few ordinary roosters, and it was not like Song Jiang had never seen them before. But when Song Jiang's eyes met with them, he suddenly felt a chill.

That complicated look is definitely not what a few poultry should have. They were all staring at Song Jiang. No matter how they moved around, their eyes seemed to fall on Song Jiang. And ordinary roosters would definitely be scared when they see strangers.

But they all roared and surrounded him...Song Jiang was so shocked that he took several steps back.

But the middle-aged man seemed to have been used to it for a long time. He waved at a few roosters and drove them further into the field. Then he smiled and said to Song Jiang, "Normally there are few people here.

, they have only seen me alive, so they are not afraid of life..."

Song Jiang smiled dryly after hearing this and said, "Yeah... this is too cruel. To tell you the truth, when I was a child, I went to play with relatives in the countryside and was bitten by a rooster. It hurts to think about it now, so I am a little afraid of these things.

thing."

The middle-aged man laughed when he heard this and said, "Are you afraid of roosters? Then do you eat chicken?!"

"Meat can still be eaten... I just don't like being alive." Song Jiang said with some embarrassment.

After hearing this, the middle-aged man shook his head and said with a smile, "You city people are really interesting... Sit down, the house is too stuffy, so I won't invite you in." Then he picked up the kettle on the table and gave it to Song Jiang

Pour a glass of water.

Song Jiang was really thirsty, but when he saw the slightly yellowish liquid in the cup, he instantly felt less like drinking, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "How much can you earn in a month here?"

Money?”

Logically speaking, this question is very simple. Helping people look after wheat fields is not a high-tech job, and the monthly salary should not be a secret. Most people can definitely tell it by opening their mouths, but the middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and then

He said vaguely, "It's not much money, just...more than a thousand."

"Ah...it's only more than a thousand a month!? Then how hard are you working? The gatekeeper in our community still gets two thousand five thousand a month!" Song Jiang said with some surprise.

Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man was also very surprised and said, "Is more than a thousand very little? I think it is already a lot... Then tell me how much it should be? I will talk to the boss later and ask him to increase it..."

Song Jiang saw that this middle-aged man was serious, so he thought for a while and said, "You live here every day, which means working 24 hours a day and night, and you can't go home in between... I still have to give you five or six thousand a month."

Bar!"

As a result, the middle-aged man nodded and said, "Okay...then it will be five thousand a month."

Song Jiang was stunned when he heard what he said, thinking that the boss is your son? You said five thousand, just five thousand? But he didn't say anything. He just echoed, "It would be best if it could be raised to five thousand."

...If you don’t get a raise, just go to the city and find a job. I think you are quite strong, and if you put in a little effort in the city, the money will not be too little."

Song Jiang originally thought that since he had said so, the other party must ask him what jobs in the city were suitable for him, but unexpectedly the middle-aged man shook his head and said, "No need... the work here is pretty good."

"

Song Jiang was speechless for a moment, thinking that this person was too stubborn, right? But then he thought, if the other person was not an ordinary person, there must be a reason why he couldn't leave this wheat field... Thinking of this, he smiled and said,

"Hey, after chatting for so long, I still don't know your surname, brother. My surname is Song, and my name is Song Jiang..."

Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man still didn't answer immediately, but frowned, and then said slowly, "My last name is... Xiao, just call me Lao Xiao."

Song Jiang could understand that the other party couldn't answer the previous question right away. Maybe it was because of his shyness, and he was too embarrassed to directly say how much money he could earn in a month. But he couldn't think about his last name again, could he?

It’s a bit unreasonable. I feel like every answer this middle-aged man answered to Song Jiang’s questions was made up on the fly...

When Meng Zhe found Zhou Shiwu, he was walking around in circles anxiously. When he saw Meng Zhe coming, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Song Jiang and I got separated... There is only one thing between the two of us."

The distance between the feet in front of the feet and the back of the feet, but he disappeared in the blink of an eye."

Meng Zhe didn't have time to think too much, so he immediately jumped into the air. He wanted to quickly locate Song Jiang's position from mid-air. However, he saw the wheat that Zhou Shiwu had trampled when he was looking for Song Jiang, and found that he was circling around.

A big circle was looking for someone, but he couldn't get into the circle. Song Jiang should have walked into the circle surrounded by a barrier.

The existence of the barrier proves that there are defenders in the circle. If Song Jiang is not found as soon as possible, he is likely to be in danger... But the problem now is that Meng Zhe can see the barrier but cannot enter it.
