Chapter 259 Distracted

   Wu Chong copied the family rules a hundred times, very slowly.

   He didn't finish copying them all until the sun was about to set.

   Zhou Bai naturally had no choice but to stand in the corridor and wait for him.

   After watching him for a while, he slipped back to Wuying's room.

   Waited until after dinner, but still couldn't find a chance to attack Wu Chong.

   After dinner, it was time for the fifth round of defense.

  Zhou Bai hid in Wu Ying's back basket, and followed her to the courtyard on the first floor.

   Then I saw the courtyard on the first floor, which was already full of people.

  The old patriarch stood at the front of the crowd, and Wu Hu stood beside him in high spirits.

  Wu Chong, who usually stood by the old patriarch's side, stepped aside this time, as if deliberately keeping a distance from the old patriarch.

  The old patriarch didn't seem to be in a good mood.

  He didn't turn his head to look at Wu Chong, but directly shouted to the team members standing in front of him with long guns in their hands.

   "The first and second combat teams obey orders, take your weapons!

   Never let those monsters step into our old house! "

  Then, the team members with long guns shouted in unison.

   "Swear to protect Wu's ancestral house!"

   After they shouted, when they were about to walk out of the gate of the old house, they suddenly saw a man with a white armband on his arm, walking out from another team.

   "Everyone, don't rush out.

  After listening to a few words from me, it is not too late to decide whether to go out or not. "

  The person who said this was tall and thin, holding a bow and arrow in his hand.

  As soon as Zhou Bai saw his figure, he recognized him as Wu Tie, the newly appointed captain of the third team.

   It's just that he came out to speak before the start of the defense battle, I'm afraid nothing good will happen.

  After Zhou Bai realized this, his ears immediately perked up, nervously watching the next development of the situation.

  The members of the first and second combat teams stopped when they heard his words, and looked towards him with some doubts.

   Then, I saw Wu Tie walking in front of the old patriarch, and then turned to face the crowd.

   "Do you know why Wu Shi scolded our great old patriarch?"

  Everyone was a little dissatisfied when they heard Wu Tie's yin and yang question.

   "Wu Tie, what are you crazy about? Wu Shi is out of his mind, and he deserves death."

   "Those monsters are about to attack, don't stand there and block the way."

   "What's wrong with the third team? The captains are not normal."

  Wu Tie sneered in the face of the doubts of the clansmen.

   "It seems that all of us have been deceived miserably by our great patriarch."

   After he finished speaking, he rolled up his sleeves and exposed his arms in front of others.

   This is a lean, muscular looking arm.

   However, there is a blood vessel in the skin of his arm, which is light silver gray.

  The other team leaders who also wore white armbands changed their expressions when they saw his silver-gray blood vessel.

  The rest of the clansmen were still a little puzzled.

   "Our great old patriarch, please explain to everyone, what is going on with the silver-gray blood vessels on my hand?"

  Facing his questioning, the old patriarch did not change his expression.

   "If you came to talk about this question today, then I won't answer you.

  You just need to know that what I do is for your own good, and for our entire Wu family, as long as it can become better. "

  Wu Tie became even angrier when he heard the old patriarch's response.

   "For my own good?

  Poison me, trying to control me.

   Is this for my own good?

  And you little captains, who have been controlled for so long, but haven't found out, it's simply too sad. "

  The small captains all stood silently.

   And their parents rushed to them, pulled up their sleeves, and nervously checked.

"No no.

  No silver-gray blood vessels.

   You scared me to death, Wu Tie, stop talking nonsense. "

   Zhou Bai hid in the back basket, listening to the farce outside, the expression on his face also became serious.

  Is Wu Tie really talking nonsense?

   Zhou Bai didn't think so.

  He recalled the few rules related to the squad leader.

  Article 5 of Wu's family rules.

  【In the Wu family, there are four combat teams. Each squad leader will wear a white armband. If you see them, reach out and say hello. If they don't do the same thing, please go to the meeting hall immediately and tell the old patriarch about it. 】

  Article 6 of the Code of Conduct for Combat Teams.

  【The captain of the combat team needs to go to the council hall to hold a meeting with the old patriarch at eight o'clock every morning. Ask each team member to monitor their behavior. If you see that they didn't go to the meeting that day, please take up your weapons and kill the team leader. 】

  Although Zhou Bai is still not sure whether the old patriarch really used drugs to control them as Wu Tie said.

  However, the squad leaders may indeed experience abnormalities, which can still be seen.

  Wu Tie walked up to those small captains one by one, and showed them his arms.

   "Do you dare to say that when you first became team leaders, the blood vessels on your hands would not turn silver-gray?"

  The other clansmen wanted to laugh at Wu Tie's crazy behavior at first.

  However, when they all saw that the other squad leaders were silent, they gradually realized that something was not quite right.

  In their hearts, they began to have doubts about the old patriarch.

  However, they still refused to believe it, and all looked at the old patriarch, wanting to get his explanation.

  The old patriarch just stood there silently, without any explanation.

   As a result, the entire Wu family's old house became very quiet because of their silence.

  In this case, the roaring voices of those monsters approaching the old house became extremely clear.

   "Perhaps, even these monsters that attack us every day are attracted by the old patriarch.

  Are you sure that you really want to sacrifice in vain for this person? "

  Wu Tie is still saying inciting words.

  But the people of the Wu clan standing in the courtyard became more and more panicked when they heard the voices of the monsters and the expressions on their faces.

  Originally, the Wu family was united.

  Although there will be monsters coming to attack every night, they will not feel afraid because of their belief in protecting the Wu family.

  However, what Wu Tie said now is like a stone thrown into their hearts.

  A crack appeared in their original firm belief.

  How can a combat team with a scattered mind fight against increasingly powerful monsters?
