Chapter 136: Cat and Mouse Battle
The scenery of Bird and Mouse Mountain is still the same, a few unknown trees are swaying in the autumn wind, and occasionally one or two withered yellow fallen leaves fall, but they are full of depression. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Zhu Mingyang led the soldiers to the woods of Bird and Mouse Mountain again, and the air was filled with the smell of rotten earth, which oppressed Zhu Mingyang almost out of breath. Zhu Mingyang looked back at the soldiers behind him.
There was also a hint of fear on the faces of the soldiers, it seemed that the rats last time still made the soldiers still have lingering palpitations, and whoever saw a living person being eaten by rats would also have fear. Zhu Mingyang glanced at the soldiers behind him, a confident gaze, but he could embolden the soldiers.
"Chunfeng, in order to reduce unnecessary casualties, don't move forward, and give the order to go down as planned." Zhu Mingyang said to Li Chunfeng, but there was a trace of calmness on his face.
Zhu Mingyang asked the team to stop at the mouth of the valley, and in front of it was the valley where it had been attacked last time. The tribute is inside, and so is the Grim Reaper.
"Come, you guys carry this bag and come with me!" Li Chufeng ordered the soldiers.
The soldiers saw that Li Chunfeng gave the order, but they pushed each other one by one as if they were hiding from the plague god, and no one was willing to act.
"You are His Majesty's forbidden army, why are you so cowardly!" Li Chunfeng showed a look of contempt.
"You ......" The soldiers were humiliated but had no reason to refute, after all, no one wanted to be heroes at this time.
"Alright, don't forget that we brought these rat nemesis today!" Li Chunfeng pointed to the cage behind the soldiers.
After a long time, in the end, several young soldiers were pushed forward by the old soldiers, and they reluctantly picked up the sacks on the ground and followed Li Chunfeng towards the valley mouth.
The soldiers walked to the mouth of the valley, and Li Chunfeng ordered the soldiers to open the sacks. But seeing that it was filled with fresh chicken, duck and fish, Zhu Mingyang didn't know what kind of food these rats liked.
"Quick! Throw the meat over!" Li Chunfeng ordered the soldiers.
When the soldiers received the order, they reluctantly threw the meat from the sack deeper into the valley. The pieces of meat were thrown into the valley and swished on the fallen leaves on the ground, and in a short time more than a dozen sacks of meat were all thrown into the valley.
Zhu Mingyang's eyes were firmly fixed on the valley in front of him, the valley was very quiet, there was no sound, and everyone's expressions were very solemn. But there has never been a shadow of mice in the valley, could it be that these beasts are also human, Zhu Mingyang thought in his heart.
"Childe, look!" Suddenly, Gao Yanyan beside her pointed to the distance in surprise.
Zhu Mingyang looked at Gao Yanyan's jade, but saw that the fallen leaves on the ground of the valley trembled again, and there was a harsh sound of "chirp" from afar, Zhu Mingyang understood that they were always coming.
The soldiers heard the death knell sound, threw away the sacks in their hands and stepped back. These forbidden troops went to the battlefield to live a life of swords and swords, but now they are extremely embarrassed.
At last there was some life in the valley, and a mouse came out from under the leaves, and pounced on the lump of meat, and then a second mouse came out, a third, a fourth...... Soon the whole valley was full of rats, and the black oppression actually covered the withered yellow of the leaves on the ground.
"Quick, open the cage!" Li Chunfeng saw that the time was ripe, so he commanded the soldiers behind him.
When the soldier heard Li Chunfeng's shout, he remembered the cat in the cage and opened the cage with his hands and feet.
As early as Linzhou, Zhu Mingyang issued an order not to give these cats any food, and these cats were also hungry for two days. As soon as I came out of the cage, I saw so many rats and cats rushing towards the valley like a flood.
Just as the rats were eating the pieces of meat, dozens of cats pounced on the rats. It was only then that the mouse realized that there were so many cats at some point. Hundreds of cats kept scratching at the leaves with their claws, and after two days of starvation, the cats were finally able to eat a full meal.
Zhu Mingyang looked at it from a distance, only to see that some cats were biting the mice with their teeth, and even some cats were pressing the mice under their paws, and they were still holding the mice in their mouths, looking majestic, and their faces showed a trace of joy.
After a long time, the rats fled, but the woods were covered with a thick layer of rat carcasses, while the cat lay on the ground leisurely licking its paws.
Zhu Mingyang led everyone into the woods at this time, and more than a dozen carriages were still parked in the woods, but the horses became a pile of white bones, and the carriages were also covered with tooth marks, and even the wooden boxes containing tribute were also tooth marks.
Zhu Mingyang opened a box, the porcelain cloth and silk inside were all intact, it seemed that only the carriage and boxes were damaged, and the others were intact, just go back and ask Zhang Shuo to prepare some boxes and carriages for himself.
"Childe, take inventory, everything is not missing, we can go back!" Li Chunfeng finished counting the tributes and said to Zhu Mingyang breathlessly.
"Let's go! I don't want to stay in this place full of dead rats! Zhu Mingyang smiled slightly, thinking about walking towards the mouth of the valley.
"Huh!" Just as Zhu Mingyang walked out of the mouth of the valley, Zhu Mingyang suddenly felt that something was wrong and went back.
"Childe, what's wrong again!" Gao Yanyan saw Zhu Mingyang suddenly turn around and asked in surprise.
"Look!" Zhu Mingyang pointed to the corpses on the ground.
At this time, Li Chunfeng and Gao Yanyan found that there were a few more corpses on the ground, but Bai Huahua's bones were covered in black, and it seemed that these people were also harmed by this group of rats.
"Unexpectedly, after we left, someone was eaten by this group of beasts!" Gao Yanyan said indignantly.
"No, there's a problem here. I asked Zhang Shuo, and Zhang Shuo told me that since there was a rat infestation on this official road, the people around him would never pass on this official road, and even the merchants would take a detour and try to split this road, so these people in black clothes must be outsiders, and they didn't know that there was a rat infestation here, which was one of them. Second, the dress of these people is not logical, even if the businessmen are in a hurry, why do they wear black clothes uniformly, so these people in black are organized! Zhu Mingyang carefully observed the corpses on the ground.
"Childe, look!" Suddenly, Li Chunfeng came over with a fan from a distance in surprise.
"What is this?" Zhu Mingyang asked suspiciously.
"I found it on the ground!" Li Chunfeng handed the fan to Zhu Mingyang.
Zhu Mingyang took the folding fan from Li Chunfeng's hand and observed it carefully, but saw that the folding fan was made of materials for some reason, but it was extremely hard, and the top of the fan bone was extremely sharp, Zhu Mingyang suddenly felt that this fan was very familiar, he gently opened the folding fan, and saw that the folding fan was written in wild grass with the words "Wind Flower Snow Moon", and it was really him......
