What is the role of the guard
The selection of exclusive guards for members of the royal family almost has to be selected. For someone like Hua Mu, who is the second heir, the selection is second only to the queen's guards. Compared with the strength test, what impressed the white pillow more deeply were various types of psychological tests.
There is a special team of psychological experts in the tower to test the character and loyalty of the Sentinels in various ways, so no one knows how to score until the test results come out. The white pillow got the highest score and entered the final assessment - the leader's "questioning".
The so-called "questioning" of the leader is not just a simple question and answer. As the leader's only apprentice, White Pillow understands how sad this is. In front of the leader, all lies cannot escape.
This is the last difficulty for the white pillow, and it is also the only place where she does not have self-confidence. She has ulterior secrets, things to cover up, and reasons not to fail.
She cheated for the first and only time in her life.
What is the role of the guard
The Henan Rainforest is the only habitat for the Black Eyed Clan, and the Black Eyed Clan is also one of the few groups that still maintain a primitive way of life.
White pillow has not seen her parents since she was born, and was raised by an older woman called her mother-in-law. The clansmen took good care of her, and she never felt inferior because of her orphan status. In addition to school, she has been wandering in the embrace of the jungle, that is her most ignorant and carefree time.
The black-eyed people are all strong and strong, and they are the most dangerous predators in the jungle. Although they are generally not tall, they have excellent natural endurance and strong physical strength, and are one of the races with the best physical fitness.
The white pillow is the best among them. The tall stature did not hinder her agility at all, and her strength when she was young was incomparable to that of an adult. At the age of ten, she followed the adults of her clan to hunt in the deep jungle. Among the black pupils who speak by strength, no one regards her as an alien.
She grew up happily to the age of twelve, and then a wave of awakening completely changed her life.
What is a sentinel
Before the awakening, White Pillow had never heard of this word at all. There is not a single sentinel or guide among the black pupils. Except for the schools set up by the government in the villages and the regular exchange of materials with civilized society, they are almost isolated from the world.
Because of the sequelae of awakening and the lack of guide elements, the ice wolf lost control and destroyed half of the village. Many clansmen were injured because of this, and she was rushed to the tower in Hezhou.
She was treated and tested in the tower and heard many secrets. Because she always looked like she was in a coma, the adults didn't shy away from talking about her.
The lack of sentinels and guides in the black-eyed clan is not simply due to the small number of people. Official statistics show that the black-eyed clan and the Temir clan living in the frigid zone are known as the two races with the lowest sentinel awakening rate—the awakening rate is both. zero.
And such a low probability is not without reason. Both the Black Eyed and the Temirs are races with far more physical fitness than ordinary people, and their living environment is also relatively specific, with extremely high exclusivity. There is data showing that this type of race can rarely be relied on by the spiritual body, and the probability of awakening is naturally very low.
The reason why the white pillow was able to awaken is actually very simple. She is not a pure black-eyed clan. The mixed blood is not only the reason for her tall stature, but also the reason why she awakens as a sentinel, and even her spiritual body is an ice wolf that is completely incompatible with the tropics.
She was originally sent to the Black Eyed Clan by the tower, but this time she just returned to where she should belong - she was completely abandoned by the clan.
After being able to perform tasks independently, White Pillow used a lot of methods to trace his life experience, and even had vague clues. But after becoming Hua Mu's bodyguard, she gave up the investigation and let everything sink in.
Those past events are no longer important to her, and her only duty and mission now is to protect Huamu's safety. For the little girl who promised her, for the princess who saved her from confusion, and for the king who would eventually lead the country and the people.
However, the eldest said that she was no longer needed. In fact, she does seem to be no longer needed. It was a deserted island for two people, and the most important person was by her side, yet she felt the loneliness and confusion she had never felt before.
What does Miss mean
Looking at Hua Mu's stubborn face from the oblique back side of Hua Mu, Bai Zhen felt a headache.
It rained heavily for two days, and it didn't stop until the morning of the third day. But the sky was still cloudy, and there seemed to be no sign of the sun coming out at all.
Hua Mu's mood was also a little depressed due to worries and the influence of the rain. After the firewood was damp, the smoke was too large, and it was too smoky to use it in the bamboo shed. She had eaten several meals of dry food. Seeing that Tiangong is still not beautiful, and the rainy days are likely to continue, she decided to take advantage of this rainy interval to collect some food.
The jungle after the heavy rain was difficult to walk, so Hua Mu gave up the plan to pick breadfruit and fruit, and went to the beach to pick up some shellfish. According to the previous experience, if you are lucky, you may be able to pick up the sea fish that washed ashore.
The white pillow has been quite absent for the past two days, and he was still in a trance when he was repairing the bamboo shed. Seeing Hua Mu running to the seaside for food with energy, his heart was empty and missing.
The dark clouds are very low, making people feel depressed and stuffy.
White pillow was confused and always felt that something bad was about to happen, but after the two of them spent so long on the island safely, she couldn't think of any danger coming.
Stormy
The sky was overcast, but not like a precursor to a storm, and the shelter should be able to withstand such rain.
"Wow, white pillow, white pillow, come and see, there are a lot of fish here! There are also squid and spider crabs!"
Hua Mu was very surprised when she saw the scene on the beach, and hurriedly waved to the white pillow.
"Stop looking at the bamboo shed, come and help!"
Hua Mu asked her to help, and Bai Zhen hurriedly left her work and ran towards the beach.
Not to mention Hua Mu, even Bai Zhen was shocked to see that scene. There are many dead bodies of sea creatures lying on the beach. Although they are not densely packed, they look really shocking because of their huge size.
There are giant squid more than two meters in length, spider crabs the size of a washbasin, tuna thicker than an arm, and countless other odd-shaped sea creatures.
Although I don't know how much seafood I have eaten, Hua Mu is still inexorably immersed in the joy of food. So many high-quality ingredients, processing enough for two people to eat for a long time!
"What are you in a daze, why don't you come and help? If you leave it for a while, it will stink!" Hua Mu saw Bai Zhen frowning and stood there in a daze, and couldn't wait to greet her, "I found this, I will divide it into six Cheng... No, seventy percent!"
Bai Zhen came back to his senses and faintly felt that something was wrong, but Hua Mu was right, and hurried back to the bamboo shed to get the baskets.
Hua Mu recognized the tuna, and did not dislike its feel, so he dragged his tail and brought it back.
It looks fresh, it must have just died, but it is dangerous to use it for sashimi, so it is better to bake it.
Just when she was thinking about what to do with this tuna, she accidentally stepped on something.
"Wow!" Hua Mu looked down and was startled.
A flat, ugly monster fish lay at her feet, not much better than the sapient creatures she had seen in museums.
"Miss, are you alright?" White pillow just came and supported her swaying body.
"Cough cough, I, I'm fine, I'm just caught off guard, so I'm not afraid."
Bai Zhen let go of her and didn't say much, but just stared at the fish she just stepped on with a solemn expression.
"What's wrong with you? What's so ugly about this fish? No matter how delicious it is, I don't want to eat it."
The Uglyfish has a wide mouth and a razor-sharp fangs that make it look terrifying. If it was put in the past, Hua Mu would probably jump on Bai Zhen's body and scream in surprise.
"Miss, this is an angler fish."
"What, is this an anglerfish? Just that anglerfish with an anglerfish liver?"
Angler fish liver is known as foie gras in fish, and Hua Mu has tasted it naturally, but she has never seen the body.
"This is too ugly, I won't eat it in the future."
"Anglers are deep-sea fish that inhabit 50 to 100 meters of seafloor, including those squid, tuna and spider crabs are deep-sea species."
Hua Mu couldn't understand the meaning of the white pillow for a while, thinking she was doing science popularization, and said impatiently: "Okay, okay, let's talk about popular science later, bring back the food that is still edible. After you have cut it, go to make a fire, I'll marinate them first."
Bai Zhen didn't know the meaning of what she said for the time being. She was just too confused, so she wanted to clarify these messages.
"But deep-sea fish are generally unlikely to wash up on the beach on such a large scale, unless some of them seek shores or ports to breed during the breeding season."
"Isn't it raining? We are lucky, don't talk nonsense, move quickly, move quickly."
White pillow can't think of a reason for the time being, so he can only carry the seafood that can be eaten on the beach to the bamboo shed as much as possible under the urging of Hua Mu. Because there are so many, she even had to use the freezing effect of the ice wolf.
Hua Mu now not only sees how happy she is with the food, but doesn't care about how happy she is because of it. The frozen frozen, the pickled pickled, the smoky smoked, and of course, a big meal for lunch.
The two were busy until the food was finished in the afternoon, and Hua Mu was so tired that her back was sore, but she was still happy.
"Ah, I can't do it, I want to collapse now."
"Then eldest lady, rest first. I'll clean up the beach, otherwise it will stink."
Hua Mu's body that wanted to lie down immediately straightened back, "I'm going too, just to stretch my body."
She shouldn't be treated special.
"… it is good."
The white pillow has no position to stop her, so she can only nod her head.
After being swept up, the beach is still full of the corpses of various marine creatures. If it is not dealt with as soon as possible, it will definitely stink when the sun comes out.
Both of them carried a bamboo basket on their backs and cleaned the beach quite carefully. The two plan to take the bamboo rafts and throw these corpses into the sea a little further away, so that they can become nutrients for other creatures and return to the sea.
Hua Mu regretted picking up the corpses of some small fish and shrimp. If it weren't for too many, usually fish and shrimp of this size would be considered a delicacy on the plate, but now they can only be wasted.
"Well, why do you think they come together? How good is it to come little by little? In that case, we won't worry about it for half a year..."
She was talking about her beautiful vision when the sentinel walking in front suddenly looked up at the sea in the distance.
"What's wrong?"
"Miss! Let's go!"
Bai Zhen suddenly poured out all the things he had picked up in the basket, turned around and rushed towards Hua Mu, lifting her by the waist with one hand.
"White pillow, what are you doing!"
Hua Mu almost didn't come up in one breath, a little annoyed at the sentry's sudden madness.
But Bai Zhen didn't care so much, so he carried her with the basket on his shoulders and ran towards the bamboo shed.
Hua Mu was covered by the fresh corpse in the bamboo basket on her back, and she was so angry that she almost collapsed on the spot. She struggled a few times and couldn't break free. Her little fist slammed on the sentinel's back and said angrily, "What are you doing, why are you crazy... I'm going to be out of breath."
White pillow seemed to say something, but she ran too fast, only the wind in Hua Mu's ears, she couldn't hear her words at all.
But soon, she saw a strange sight behind the two - the sea suddenly receded.
Obviously it's not a high tide time period, so naturally it can't be said to be a low tide, but the sea water seems to be instantly pumped by some huge water pump, and the coastline is rapidly moving down at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This kind of scene is very strange, and Hua Mu can't help but stand upside down. Even if she didn't understand anything, she knew that something big was about to happen.
