Chapter 490: Crack "Ratcatcher"
Lin Hu waved his hand: "Don't panic, as long as the communication is cut off for a day, the people above will immediately know that something happened to our side." This is a vital place, and they will definitely send someone to rescue us. ”
When the others heard this, they immediately felt that it made sense. They dig for gold in the mountains, and every day they use carrier pigeons to contact the people in the strongholds outside the mountains to report the progress of the work. As long as the carrier pigeons are not released today, the people on the other side of the stronghold will definitely come to them, and they will be saved.
It's a pity that before they could be happy for too long, there was a gloating ridicule outside: "You think it's quite beautiful, don't you want to think about it, why can the little master know so accurately that you can cut through this crack today?" Your carrier pigeons are well raised, and they are roasted with oil, and they taste so good. ”
The crack has an echo effect, so you can hear the people below and the people above.
The faces of the people below all changed, they had already been exposed!
Several people suddenly panicked, and Lin Hu said viciously: "Give Lao Tzu a calm!" There are hidden places in this crack, and they can't do anything about us for a while. The terrain here is so dangerous, they don't dare to come down rashly. Drag it first, drag it for a while. Come, and then dig in, digging a few deeper holes, so that they don't have to put arrows down. ”
At the moment, there is no other way but this.
Liang Twelve listened to the sound of digging soil below, turned back to Xiao Jingchen and said, "Master, these eight kings and calves are quite bold, why don't we go down and capture them?" ”
Xiao Jingchen looked back at Lin Ruan: "What do you think?" ”
Lin Ruan shook his head disapprovingly: "It's not wise to go down and capture people, they must have weapons in their hands, and the position they occupy is also very favorable." If the people above want to go down, they must be tied with ropes, and when people are hanging in the air, they are used as targets. ”
Liang Twelve thought about it and felt that it was also a problem, although their kung fu was good, they couldn't stand being targeted at, "Is there any good way for the county lord?" ”
After Lin Ruan was named the county lord, Liang Twelve's attitude towards her became more respectful, although she still joked on weekdays, but she no longer dared to be as casual as before.
Lin Ruan raised his lips and smiled: "There are often many voles in the fields in the countryside, and these mice will waste a lot of grain a year, so when the farm is slack, the girl boy of the farmer's family will go to the field to catch mice." Rats make burrows, and burrows are extensive, and if you want to dig them with a hoe, that's the most uningenious way. So these girls and boys came up with a clever trick, find some damp firewood to light a fire at the entrance of the hole, let the smoke drift into the hole, and then look at the nearby smoke, and then use the prepared rag bag to cover the hole, and when those rats are so smoked that they can't stand it, they will automatically run out and fall into the bag. ”
When Liang Twelve heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he slapped his thigh: "Wonderful!" County lord, I'll take someone to get firewood and smoke these eight calves to death. ”
Lin Ruan smiled faintly: "The smoke is going up, they are below, if you want to smoke them out, you have to cover the top of this crack." I think the trees around here are growing quite well, and it's perfect for covering the hole.
Liang Twelve looked at her faint smile, and somehow, suddenly his back was cold.
This girl is ruthless, blocking the crack mouth, and all of them are gathered below and can't disperse, and those people can't carry it if they want to.
Suddenly, he felt a little glad in his heart, fortunately he hadn't offended this girl completely before, otherwise she really had to find a way to deal with herself, and she might not have to suffer a lot of hidden losses.
Not daring to think deeply, Liang Twelve hurriedly took someone to get firewood and grass.
The most important thing in Shenwu Mountain is all kinds of firewood. It was already the middle of winter now, and the wild grasses in the mountains that had grown unusually lush because of Lin Ruan's ability had dried up and spread a thick layer on the ground, so the people of Liang Twelve didn't make much effort, they made a few large bundles of hay and broke some fresh branches.
There is less smoke when the hay burns, and the effect is more pronounced when you add fresh, moist branches and leaves.
Liang Twelve grabbed a large handful of hay, mixed with some wet leaves, then took out the fire fold, easily lit the hay outside, and threw it away, and the grass fell into the crack.
When the first burning grass fell, Lin Hu and the others were startled, and they didn't dare to move, thinking that there was something terrible in it.
When the hay outside was almost burned, the leaves inside were heated and choking smoke began to rise.
Only then did a few people realize that there was nothing in the straw, and they immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and when they went up to extinguish the straw, suddenly the light in the crack began to gradually dim.
Lin Hu looked up and saw that someone was holding something on it and covering the crack.
He is also from a farming family, so he naturally knows how to catch voles. After guessing this possibility, Lin Hu's face changed greatly: "Quick, speed up the speed and dig a hole, dig a hole that can accommodate a few of us, the hole should be small, and the smoke must not drift in." ”
Several other people also immediately understood the intention of the people above, and hurriedly went to dig a hole.
It's just that the soil in this crack is not so easy to chise, and below this is a complete rock structure, they have been digging in the rock these days, and in this half of the time, where can it be so easy to dig a hole that can accommodate several people!
But they can't care so much about it at this time, and if they don't dig out the hole quickly, they will be choked to death.
Several people frantically took tools to dig on the stone wall, and the brocade guards on it were not slow, and after a while, the crack mouth of more than ten meters was paved to only a small opening.
There was darkness beneath the cracks, and nothing could be seen.
Suddenly, a stream of firelight fell from the sky, and when Lin Hu saw this, he had to temporarily give up digging the hole: "Quick, go and put out the fire, as long as the fire doesn't burn, don't think about achieving their goal!" ”
Several people rushed over and hurriedly trampled out the straw that had fallen to the ground.
But they kept throwing it down, and they threw it more and more, and they didn't have time to step on it, and they were very easy to be hit by the falling torches.
One hit was very easy to burn, so after a while, a few of them didn't dare to rush over and step on it again, watching as the grass grew more and more, and the fire lit up the cracks, but they couldn't see the surrounding situation clearly, because the smoke that couldn't float out began to accumulate more and more in the cracks.
Several people desperately covered their mouths and noses, but it didn't have much effect, as long as they let go of their breath, they would be choked and coughed directly.
The smoke and torches gradually drained the oxygen in the cracks, and several people became more and more out of breath.
Someone neutered and asked, "Will Lin Shen cough cough cough...... Now to ...... cough cough cough ...... What to do...... If this continues, we ...... We're going to die! ”
