Chapter 49: Traps are laid
After a simple lunch, Xue Wu went into the mountains, this time she came alone, and she didn't bring Pei Lian.
First, she had to avoid him for what she wanted to do, and second, she was more relieved that he was guarding at home with a person with high force value.
This time she came to look for plants such as stinger thorns, and the reason why Mrs. Xue dared to climb the wall before was because she didn't take any precautions on the courtyard wall?
That wall can only prevent the gentleman from the villain, what if someone climbs the wall next time?
That's why she had to take a few extra precautions.
If you plant a ring of thorns around the wall, others will have to weigh it up again.
Thorns are not uncommon, they are everywhere in the mountains, Xue Wu quickly found a clump, dug into the space, and then watered it with a spiritual spring, so that the thorns quickly grew wildly.
In a short time, she was given a large patch of thick and lush thorns, the surface of which had changed from delicate light red to hard crimson, and the thorns had also turned into deep purple, which pierced people tightly at the first sight.
She dug up the thorns, tied them with vines, and prepared to take them out again at the bottom of the mountain.
When he went out of the space, a black shadow suddenly rushed over, and Xue Wu dodged to avoid it.
"Hiss-" A snake with white stripes on a black background spat a snake hyacinth at her.
Xue Wu's pupils shrank, goosebumps appeared on her body, she had always been respectful of snakes, but now she was actually targeted by a snake.
The black snake has a pointed head, and at first glance it is a poisonous snake, a poisonous snake...... Xue Wu's heart moved, and she originally planned to hide in the space immediately, but now she changed her mind.
A stick appeared in her hand and poked at the viper.
There is a word called beating the snake stick, that is, hitting the snake with a stick, the snake will crawl over with the stick, Xue Wu is deliberate, what she wants is this snake to climb on the stick.
And the snake did not live up to her expectations, and sure enough, it crawled with the body of the stick, and at that moment, she resisted the urge to throw the stick out and dodged into the space.
Once in the space, the snake was no longer any threat to her, after all, this was her home turf.
As soon as Xue Wu's heart moved, the black snake that was rushing towards her fell to the ground with a snap, and her body couldn't move.
She used pliers to clamp the viper into a thin-mouthed vase half a man high, which had been stored in the treasury of the Qian Mansion and was supposed to be an antique, but now she didn't care about antiques or not.
What she looks at now is its smoothness and narrowness.
I don't let the vipers escape.
Next, let it starve.
Xue Wu dragged a large pile of thorns home, planted them around the wall, and watered them, and since then these thorns have made their home by the courtyard wall.
But it will take some time for them to grow to the point where they can wrap all the walls.
Although she could use the Spirit Spring to speed up the process, it was too obvious to arouse suspicion, so she didn't plan to do it.
In fact, the water that usually watered the flowers and plants was mixed with some spiritual springs, which caused the flowers and plants in the courtyard to grow much faster than before, and if it continued faster, I was afraid that it would cause Xue Mu's panic.
Since the thorns were not useful for the time being, Xue Yu set some traps inside and outside the courtyard wall.
These trap-setting techniques were all learned from Father Xue, originally to hunt wild beasts, but now they are used to guard against villains.
In fact, she should have thought of it one step earlier.
Otherwise, Mrs. Xue wouldn't have been able to climb in so easily.
Thinking of Mrs. Xue, Xue Wu's eyes were cold, she hated a person so much for the first time in her life.
Soon, though, she couldn't get up.
"Sister, what are you doing?" Xue Yao was placing sharpened wooden thorns in the trap, and Xue Yao came back from school.
"Set the trap and come to help."
"Okay." Xue Yao put down his satchel and ran over.
He is also very familiar with these, and with his joining, Xue Wu will do it much faster.
After arranging the trap, Xue Wu told him what happened at home today.
Xue Yao was so angry that he kicked on the peach blossom tree in the yard, and suddenly there was a colorful fall, and the petals were like rain.
The scene is beautiful, but the mood is terrible.
Xue Yao's teeth chattered, "Sister, why do they always come to bully our family?" I'm going to fight them! ”
The little boy started a fire like a strong calf, Xue Wu wanted to pull him but didn't stop, but Xue Jun stopped him in time.
"Brother, don't go! I've come up with a way to get rid of them. ”
Xue Yao paused, and turned back in disbelief, "What way?" ”
Xue Jun was also very curious, last time Xue Jun said that she wanted to find a way to get rid of the old Xue family completely, she actually didn't have much expectations, but she didn't expect Xue Jun to really take this matter to heart.
"Let's go to the county government and sue them." Xue Jun said word by word, "I have read the laws of our Great Prayer, our family has been separated from that side, the money that the third uncle owes to the casino has nothing to do with us, and the milk has no right to sell us." This time, she broke into our house with the people from the casino and destroyed the family's belongings. ”
Xue Wu listened, and her heart couldn't help but suddenly brighten, yes, why didn't she think of reporting to the official, if she had encountered such a thing in modern times, she would have called the police as soon as possible, but here, she subconsciously ruled out this method.
Maybe it was because of the county order's connivance at her brother-in-law Qian Dazhi, or maybe she heard too many rumors that the county order didn't do anything about personnel, so she didn't have the slightest trust in the officials of this era, and she didn't think about seeking help from the government at all.
However, a complaint is also an option.
Tomorrow she can go to Guan Yue and ask.
"Jun'er is awesome, I actually thought of this solution, tomorrow I will go to the lawyer to write a complaint and sue them fiercely!" Xue Jun affirmed Xue Jun's proposal.
The little girl smiled a little embarrassedly.
"The door of the house is broken, today we will go for one night, and tomorrow we will go to the county together, it just so happens that my mother and Jun'er have not seen our house in the city."
Xue Mu was a little moved, and a little hesitant: "...... in that house"
Xue Wan: "Didn't you just set a trap?" It's best if no one comes to take advantage of the fire, and if someone comes to do something stealing, they deserve to fall into a trap. ”
In this way, the matter of the family going to the county tomorrow will be decided.
"Yao'er, you go and ask Mr. for a leave, and explain the reason to Mr. clearly." Xue Yao said to Xue Yao.
Xue Yao said "um", took a bag of flower tea given to him by Xue's mother and ran out of the door.
The school was opened by an old Xiucai in the neighboring village who had failed the exam for a long time, and Shanghe Village was not far away, and it could be reached in two quarters of an hour.
Xue Yao came to Mr.'s house and told him what happened at home, "Tomorrow our family is going to the county to hand over the complaint to the casino, I am the only male in the family, and I must come forward at that time, so I hope Mr. will allow me to take a day off." ”
