Chapter 97: Soil Medicine Rat

Midnight.

Outside the fence where you plant the snow roots.

Willy sat on a small bench, casually looking up at the night sky and the twinkling stars.

Arden, on the other hand, reached into his two sleeves, wrapped in a thick cotton jacket, and paced back and forth. He didn't have Willy's perverted physique, and even though it was cold, he was still wearing a single coat.

Now Willy and Arden are intently waiting for the thief who stole the Starspotted Snow Root to arrive again.

"Lord Tun, should we light the oil lamp? In this case, we can see clearly the thing that steals the star-spotted snow root. ”

Arden suggested.

Willy waved his hand in disapproval: "That thing is very timid, if it is brightly lit, it will not dare to come." ”

Arden let out an oh when he heard this, and then continued to walk back and forth, only by continuing to move could he ensure that his body was not frozen.

Looking at the trembling Arden, Willy secretly said in his heart that it was time to build a resting hut next to the land for the night watchman, so that the two of them would not take turns on duty, and it would not be so hard.

It was warm before, and it didn't matter if you kept vigil outside, but if you go out all night in this weather, you will freeze people to death.

The cold wind hit, and the moonlight was thick.

Suddenly, Willy caught a rustling sound.

The sound was very slight, and even the current Vali could only hear a very slight sound.

The little guy who stole the starspot snow root is here again.

Willy abruptly stood up, startling Arden.

"Tun Elder ......"

Arden was about to ask if the thief was coming, but he saw Willy make a silent gesture, so he quickly understood.

Arden was not impatient either, and followed behind Willy, stopping outside the wall. Willy had already instructed him before, catch this thief, Willy can come alone, and he is responsible for starting from the side.

Willy's movements were slight, his feet on the dirt barely making a sound. Willy's control over himself now has reached an extremely subtle level, and reducing the frequency of footstep vibrations is very simple for him.

As Willy continued to move deeper into the ground, the rustling sound became clearer and clearer.

"There!"

Soon, Willy locked down the location of the sound.

Right under the star-spotted snow root in the northeast corner!

Willy remained patient, and it wasn't until he was three meters away from the source of the sound that his figure suddenly moved.

He threw himself straight to the ground, digging his palm straight into the soil, which was soft and had no resistance at all.

Immediately afterward, Willy felt like he had caught a furry, palm-sized creature. The little fluffy creature struggled violently and squeaked. However, Willy's palm was like a cage that it couldn't break free from, and it couldn't move at all.

"Light up!"

Willy commanded at Arden.

Arden was ready, and quickly lit the oil lamp with his hands and feet, and approached Willy's side.

"Sure enough, it's it!"

After seeing the little fluffy thing in his hand, Willy smiled slightly.

It was a small creature resembling a mouse, with an earthy yellow body, small eyes with almost a slit, short limbs but sharp claws, and a very short tail, almost one-fifth the size of a normal mouse.

The earth medicine rat, a creature between an ordinary beast and a demonic beast, does not have the slightest combat power, but it is very strange.

Compared to Warcraft, the number of earth medicine rats is not very rare, but few people can find its traces. It only prefers to haunt the depths of inaccessible forests or the countryside or tunzi where medicinal herbs are grown, it only likes to move at night, and has extremely ingenious stealth abilities, so it is impossible for ordinary people to detect it.

If it weren't for Willy in Fandoutun, even if the entire Fandoutun people gathered in front of the Starspot Snow Root, they wouldn't have noticed that it was secretly gnawing underground, and even if they did, they wouldn't have been able to catch its rapid movement underground.

The earth medicine rat is fed with plants rich in nutrients such as herbs, and after absorbing a small part of the essence, it will catalyze most of the nutrients and excrete them from the body, which is why its feces have a medicinal smell.

Although the feces after decomposition and catalytic effects cannot be used directly, it has a high value as a fertilizer.

Crops fertilized with rat manure will grow stronger, produce more fruit or improve quality, and be more resistant to harsh environments and pests.

It is precisely because of this that Willy was so excited after discovering the traces of the earth medicine rat. With this soil medicine rat, raise it, although the feces discharged do not seem to be much, but there is still no problem in supporting the growth of half of the crops in Pandoutun.

"Master Tun, what is this?"

Arden looked in amazement at what looked like a mouse in Willy's hand.

"It's called the Soil Medicine Rat, and it's a very interesting animal, and it's ......."

Willy was about to explain to Arden when he suddenly heard another noise.

"Is it ......?"

Willy's eyes lit up, his hand was quick, and his other hand reached into the dirt, and another medicine rat was pulled out of the dirt.

"There are two of them?"

Willy was a medicine rat in one hand, and he looked very surprised.

The movements of the earth medicine rat are very light, and he only noticed the movement of an earth medicine rat just now. If my guess is correct, this earth medicine rat should have escaped from the ground, but now it seems that it should have returned.

Why is that?

He put another medicine rat in front of his eyes to take a closer look, but found that this medicine rat's abdomen was slightly bulging, and its struggling movements were slightly clumsy.

"No wonder this medicine rat is back......"

Willy almost wanted to laugh out loud.

These two earth medicine rats are a pair. Pairs of earth medicine rats, they do not look for food separately alone, they act together every time. I caught the male medicine rat before, which made the female earth medicine rat very uneasy, so I came back and was caught by Willy.

Look at this female medicine rat, she should be pregnant. If there are no accidents, after a month, Willy will be able to harvest a small litter of newborn earth medicine rats.

In this way, even if Fandoutun continues to expand, the soil medicine rats that continue to breed in their hands are enough to support the fertilizer needed by Fandoutun.

At this point, as long as there is no large-scale natural disaster, Willy no longer has to worry about the cultivation of crops in Fandoutun.

Thinking of this, Willy's heart was very happy.

"Arden, you go and build a small cabin with cotton in it, and build a new nest for these two earth rats. ”

Willy commanded.
