Chapter 444: Rescue Operation
Finally, the leading cat stopped, began to crouch on the ground and sniffed the surrounding smells, as if looking for some way, and finally, it finally determined its direction and ran towards a forest in front of it.
Lu Tao was in good spirits, it seemed that he was finally about to reach his destination, Lu Tao felt that he had worked hard for so long, even if there was no treasure, it would be good to be able to suddenly appear a lot of delicious things.
But just think about it, look at what you just ate, there won't be anything delicious here waiting for Lu Tao, Lu Tao suddenly recalled those foods such as cakes, hot pot, spicy tang or pork rib soup, and suddenly felt that he wanted to eat it, and it was okay to eat without pork rib soup and radish soup.
After walking for such a long time, the sky was almost dawn, at least the clouds on the horizon had been dyed with a layer of bright brilliance, and those faint lights and shadows shone in through the gaps between the trees, leaving many large and small shadows.
The leading cat meowed twice, as if to greet someone somewhere, and when he got closer, Lu Tao found that under the shadow of a big tree, there were two cats, a white cat and a flower cat.
The white cat's body was dirty, as if it was rolling in the mud, and it didn't feel energetic, and when it heard the sound here, it just looked up a little bit in this direction, then turned its head away, and continued to lie on the ground.
The other cat had black and white stripes, and he squatted next to the white cat, his eyes looking quite bright in the faint sunlight of the early morning.
It first saw the red-haired cat in the lead, and then saw Lu Tao, and then became quite vigilant: "Red-haired? Who is this? Why do you bring someone back casually?"
"Meow meow!"
The red hair still made a meowing sound, as if he wanted to say something, which made Lu Tao feel a little surprised, the flower cat on the other side actually understood, and it replied directly: "You said that you asked for help, what can he help?"
Hearing this, Lu Tao had to speak: "What are you talking about?
The red fur turned around: "Meow meow!"
Lu Tao: "???"
He really couldn't understand what the red fur was saying, and he felt confused from beginning to end.
"Alas, forget it, I don't expect you to help, let's get closer, Bai Lu was caught by the clip, we thought of a lot of ways, but there was no way to open the clip......"
Bai Lu should be the white cat lying on the other side, Lu Tao should not have him, slowly walked into the vicinity of the white cat, and finally saw more clearly.
There is an iron clip stuck in the white cat's leg, and a not too thick iron chain can be seen on the other side, which is tied to a tree next to it in a circle, and the white cat is left with a thick grass, this simple trap, put it in the grass and you can't see the trace, I think it's because of this, this is the white cat named Bai Lu will be injured by the trap.
The iron clip was not large, at best the size of an adult's palm, and it was embedded in the white cat's leg, and only a little blood came out. I don't know if it's used to catch any small animals, but fortunately it's this kind of small clip, if it's a very big trap, it is estimated that now this white cat named Bai Lu has even had his legs broken.
Lu Tao was a little depressed, it turned out that the cat named Hongmao brought himself here to save the white cat. Lu Tao really regretted it, he should have thought a long time ago, the most special cat in the world should be himself, where would a cat with the same high IQ come out?
The white cat trapped by the trap, Lu Tao also wants to save it, and it is not difficult to say, and it does not take much time to think.
"I've got a way to open the clamp, you wait a little bit. ”
After Lu Tao finished speaking, he didn't wait for the cat's response, and turned around and ran away.
His idea was to find a solid wooden stick as a crowbar and insert it into the iron clamp that trapped the white cat, and then he could open the iron clip. Cats will definitely not understand this simple lever principle, and even humans themselves have taken a long time to study this principle clearly.
The red hair followed behind Lu Tao, Lu Tao didn't drive it away, just follow it, and if a wild boar or something rushes out later, the red hair can protect himself a little bit as force.
The process of finding the crowbar was not as easy as Lu Tao imagined, the first time I found the crowbar was soft, I don't know which tree it fell from, and the outer layer of bark was still blue; although the second time I found the crowbar, although it was not so soft, it was really brittle, it felt like a branch that fell more than ten years ago, and finally turned into a rotten dead wood after the erosion of time.
Fortunately, for the third time, Lu Tao was finally lucky, found a crowbar of the right length and hardness, and put it in his mouth, Lu Tao was about to go back, but found a serious problem.
He was lost, no matter how he looked at it, every forest was the same, especially after the sun had risen, Lu Tao always felt that he was familiar with every road, but he hadn't walked it.
Turning around, Lu Tao showed an embarrassed smile to the red hair: "Red hair...... Do you recognize the way back?"
"Meow meow!"
The red hair screamed, but Lu Tao knew that the red hair should have understood what he meant, because it had already begun to turn around and walk back, Lu Tao naturally followed behind it effortlessly, and by the way, he picked up the stick on the ground with his mouth.
Sure enough, it is useful to let the red hair follow behind him, and it is very useful, at least if Lu Tao runs out alone, he will definitely not find his way back, although when he comes all the way, Lu Tao also pays attention to leaving his own smell so as not to get lost, but this habit is really different from his habits as a human, at least in the human world, except for babies, no one will use their own smell to mark the territory.
Oh yes, babies don't actually use their own urine to mark their territory, they just can't hold it.
The red fur sniffed on the ground with his nose, and took Lu Tao back to his previous position, but there was an extra black cat, which looked as if Lu Tao's current body was enlarged by No. 1. Hua Mao also introduced to Lu Tao in a matter-of-fact manner: "This is Bai Lu's father Hei Tan, if you can help us rescue Bai Lu, we will definitely be grateful to you." ”
Lu Tao: "???"
Are you sure that a pure black cat can give birth to a pure white cat?
Lu Tao looked at the father and daughter, and couldn't help but think in his heart: There can't be any problem, right? And how does Lu Tao remember that cats, as long as the children grow up, will be kicked out of the house, let them live freely, or in other words, let them be self-reliant.
The big black cat nodded to Lu Tao, but Lu Tao didn't plan to care so much, he carefully inserted the wooden stick in his mouth into the gap of the trap, fortunately, this trap was like a toy, between those sharp iron teeth, the gap exposed was large enough, just enough for Lu Tao to insert the crowbar in.
After it was almost plugged in, Lu Tao turned back to the white cat and said, "It may hurt a little later, bear with it." ”
After saying that, Lu Tao took a few steps back, ran over in a sprint, and then jumped up and grabbed the crowbar raised high with his front paws.
"Meow !!"
The white cat Bai Lu let out a scream, which startled Lu Tao, and then, Lu Tao found an embarrassing thing, his weight was too light, not enough to pry the corner of the crowbar, so there was no way to open the locked iron clip, just let the iron clip loosen a little, and then rematched, touching the white cat's wound.
Turning his head to look at the flower cat, Lu Tao said, "Why don't you try it......"
The cat shook her head: "I can't try, my foot is also stuck in the trap." ”
As he spoke, it took a step forward, revealing its right hind leg, where there was an iron clamp that was the same as what Lu Tao saw just now, clamping his leg, making it unable to move, and could only stand on the ground.
Lu Tao: "......"
He was really curious, how did these two people do it, how did they get caught in the iron clamp together?
"I'll do anything to save my daughter!"
In the end, what relieved Lu Tao's embarrassment was the black cat that was one size bigger, that is, the father of the white cat Bai Lu, who looked at the crowbar that Lu Tao had placed before, and asked with some confusion: "What should I do?"
Lu Tao said: "Just do the same as I just did, jump up and press down this end with the weight of your body, you can open the iron clamp, remember to press from the top down, so that all the power can be applied to the crowbar." ”
Speaking of this, Lu Tao suddenly remembered that he hadn't reminded the white cat named Bai Lu, so he turned his head over there and said, "Bai Lu, when your father presses down the crowbar and the iron clamp is loose, you can quickly pull your feet out, so that you can come out." ”
The white cat seemed to nod imperceptibly, at least Lu Tao didn't see it clearly, so he just nodded it, and the black cat nodded a little ignorantly, and then according to what Lu Tao had just done once, he retreated a distance, jumped up in a sprint, and pressed towards the crowbar.
This time, the white cat did not bark, and took advantage of the moment the iron clamp opened, pulled its foot out of it, and then limped to the side and squatted down.
"Great, Bai Lu you came out, it's really good!"
Bai Lu's father, Hei Tan, seemed to be very excited, and went to see his daughter after shouting, leaving the flower cat that was still trapped in place, Lu Tao had no choice but to comfort it: "Or ...... I asked Redfur to try it, but I wasn't sure if he could understand what I was saying, what it meant, and it might hurt if he didn't press down the crowbar properly. ”
Originally, although Lu Tao felt that the red hair should be able to understand what he said, but in fact, there was no way to confirm it, and he didn't know if the red hair could understand this more detailed command?
