The two found a water source, cleaned it first, and brought some clean water. I found some dry firewood, caught some live pheasants, and then walked to the cave.

The princess was full of questions, and Qi Zhiming just replied with "I'll know in a while". provoked her to pout and stomp her feet, sullen.

Back in the cave, Qi Zhiming poured some water on the bodies of the two rat men.

The two nezumi woke up and opened their eyes suddenly. Seeing Qi Zhiming standing in front of him, he moved his body backwards in horror and slowly retreated to a corner close to the cave wall.

There was no way to retreat, so the thief looked around, and let out a low whining sound from his mouth, as if to threaten.

Qi Zhiming stood in the distance, motionless and observing.

The princess was bored by herself, and came to Qi Zhiming's side, staring at the two rat men curiously.

The two nezumi whined for a moment, then suddenly stretched out their claws like hands, and kept waving them at them, whirring in their mouths.

Qi Zhiming was still silent, stepped forward with an arrow, and stomped the two rat men with his right foot, and there was a "bang" sound, only to frighten the two rat men to shrink into a ball again, trembling non-stop.

"Nightshade, where did they capture your people? What are you doing on the island? Qi Zhiming felt that the rat man was not like the unknown creature that Liu Wu said.

"It's so disgusting, why don't you ask?" The princess said dissatisfiedly, but her body moved forward.

The princess asked in several languages, Qi Zhiming could only understand one Chinese, and the two rats were silent.

The princess retreated helplessly, glanced at Qi Zhiming, and pursed her lips, meaning that I can't help it.

Qi Zhiming took out a live pheasant from his pocket and handed it to the princess, saying, "When I make a fire in a while, you can ask the pheasant again according to what you just said, take it to the two rat people, and let them take a closer look." When you're done, give me the pheasant. Remember! ”

After a while, the firewood burned and crackled, and the temperature around it immediately rose a lot.

The two nezumi moved and moved towards the cave wall, eager to squeeze their bodies into the rock of the cave wall.

"It seems that they are afraid of fire or heat."

"Nightshade, it's your turn. Hold the pheasant close to them so that they can hear and see. ”

The princess asked the pheasant again the same thing.

The pheasant was so frightened that he didn't dare to make a sound, and of course he couldn't answer.

Qi Zhiming didn't say a word, grabbed the pheasant, and broke the pheasant's neck in front of the two rat people. The chicken's blood was spilled on the ground, and he didn't look at the two rat men, and threw the pheasant directly into the blazing fire.

The flames suddenly rose with a "poof", and the stench of roasted chicken feathers immediately filled the air.

Turning to the princess, he whispered, "Go and ask those two nezumi again." If you don't answer, it's like this pheasant, whose neck is broken and burned and eaten! ”

The princess looked at the deliberately fierce and vicious expression on Qi Zhiming's face, forced a smile, and asked the two rat men again seriously, and pointed to the pheasant in the firewood.

A bit of intimidation, and it had some effect.

The two nezumi looked at each other and muttered hesitantly. The other one was also gesturing as the conversation progressed, dancing with his hands and feet, trying to express the meaning as much as possible. It's like a mute language, with the language of your companion.

At first, Qi Zhiming was very interesting to watch, and carefully pondered those gestures. I couldn't figure out what it meant after watching it for a long time, so I simply didn't pay attention to it anymore. Concentrate on roasting the pheasant, and after a while, the fragrance fills the cave.

The gurgling sound stopped, and Qi Zhiming looked at it in surprise.

The princess said helplessly, "They want to eat your roasted pheasant!" ”

"Are they all done? What are they? Have you figured out where your people were caught? ”

"Almost, right? I don't understand some of the words, but I can still know the general meaning. Give them something to eat, and I'll talk to you later. ”

"Cheap rats." Qi Zhiming reluctantly handed over the steaming pheasant.

The two nezumi tried to reach for it, but they quickly retracted and screamed wildly.

"Brother Ming, they're afraid of burning!" The princess looked at the mischievous Qi Zhiming with disgust.

"I'll go, let Lao Tzu serve and pick and choose? Love to eat but not to eat, not to eat and pull down. Qi Zhiming said, throwing the roasted pheasant at the feet of the rat man.

"Nightshade, ignore them, tell me, what is this?" Qi Zhiming pulled the princess to sit by the fire and roasted other food.

"These are cavemen who have lived in caves all their lives." The princess said slowly.

······

It turned out that the two rat people in front of them were cave creatures, living with their people in a very deep and large cave, with hundreds of thousands of people. I don't know how many years have passed, and I don't know what era it started, but it was a long, long time ago.

Using their unique technology, they have created special weapons that can make other creatures fearful. From being timid to get out of the hole, he has become more and more bold, until he takes the initiative to attack other creatures. The area of activity is getting larger and larger, developing to encroach on the places that are useful to them. However, they never kill other creatures, they just knock each other down, powerless to resist, adhering to the ancestral teachings and their strict discipline.

"Although the intentions are similar, the behavior is much stronger than the so-called people in the island country." Qi Zhiming secretly scolded himself, but did not interrupt the princess's words.

The rat-people are invading all over the world to gather resources that can be further converted into energy for use in their weapons and aircraft. And there are no resources available in the nezumi caves.

Nezumi live up to 100 years old and feed on animals and plants. Gregarious, with families as a unit. There were kings and guards with them, the system was strict and disciplined, and they never dared to show their faces to the outside world unless necessary.

"Ask the nezumen, how are their weapons made? What resources are used for energy? How to defend against it? Where are the people who took them? Can it be released? Where are their holes? "Qi Zhiming only cares about the weapons of the rat people, and has little interest in other issues.

Looking at the two rat men again, a fat pheasant has been eaten up, and there are no bones left, and the small belly is obviously bulging. It's really hard for this small body to be able to eat so much?

The princess and the nezumi were talking again.

"Brother Ming, I don't understand much, I only know that it is a weapon made of cold press. Use crystals as resources, extract the energy in them, and use them for their purposes. As for defense, it seems that we are talking about plastic, which can insulate the damage of magnetic waves. ”

"Where's the hole? They also don't know clearly, only that they know that there are human beings living on land. Aircraft can take them in and out. ”

"My people, on the island they just had. They said they were just mining crystals there, and after mining the crystal mines there, they would release my people. The princess said.

"It's rat bastard logic! Then you tell them that this is our island, and the crystal is ours. Captured our people, robbed us of our things, this is a robber. Ask them again, if we go to their burrows and catch a few mice to play with, and then grab a few flying machines, would it be okay? Qi Zhiming shouted angrily.

"Let our people go, leave the mined crystals, and the weapons, and get out of the island. Then I'll let these two rats go. Otherwise, I will slaughter them all like a pheasant, along with the rats on the island, and make them into dried wax, and slowly burn them and eat them! I've eaten a lot of rats before, and it tastes so good, it's been a long time! ”

After some negotiation, first let one nezumi go back to convey the meaning, and the other nezumi remained as a hostage. If you don't do what Qi Zhiming wants, then trap them all on the island. Kill two rat people a day, roast them and eat them. Until you finish killing and eating.

Things went unexpectedly well, maybe they were frightened by Qi Zhiming's mysterious formation, or they could feel a sense of loss. Maybe it's also because this man said that the rats were delicious, and when he spoke, his saliva flowed out, and he really ate them.

The rat-man kept his promise and left.

The girl, the princess's people, came to the princess, and the two hugged each other and cried.

Qi Zhiming released the rat man.

The aircraft flew away.

Qi Zhiming watched the rat man's flying machine disappear into the sky in an instant, and his heart was amazed. Isn't this technology a little stronger than humans, and I don't know when humans will be able to make it?

sighed meaninglessly for a while, and took the lead on the island.

Behind her, the princess and her people had a lot to say.

Qi Zhiming was alone on the island to take a closer look.

The merfolk asked angrily, "Humans? ”

Without waiting for the princess to reply, she said disdainfully, "Rats are more reliable than humans!" “

The princess hurriedly covered the mermaid's mouth.

It's late! Qi Zhiming had already heard it. Glancing back at the mermaid, he shook his head and smiled, "Do you want to go with those rat people?" They're gone, but I'll be able to send you back! Is this going to go? “

The mermaid seemed to have something to say, but the princess covered her mouth and whimpered.

Qi Zhiming didn't want to worry about her, but just looked at her deeply: "If you don't want to die, don't talk anymore, if you want to die, you will be fulfilled, and I can save you or kill you." I want to go with the nezumi, but I'll talk about it later. ”

······

In front of him was a large hole, diagonally jutting out below the island, black.

At the entrance of the cave are more than a dozen nezumi weapons in the shape of cigarette boxes.

Six large white square metal boxes, each about two meters high, are neatly placed together.

There was nothing else around.

Qi Zhiming cautiously laid out a defensive formation to defend the three of them and those items. After all, in addition to the formation, there is no ability to fight hard with the other party now.

The nezumi really didn't have a cover.

The cigarette box-sized weapon, with a sophisticated structure, is like a mobile phone lighting, and the magnetic waves emitted hit the formation, swinging a circle of water-like ripples, making a "pop" sound.

"Good thing, this is also powered by crystals? How can there only be a small piece of circuit board? Qi Zhiming fiddled with the rat man's weapon and wondered.

Immediately, he opened again: "This should be the energy plate of crystal transformation, right?" ”

Open the big iron boxes, and the crystals are arranged like bricks in the boxes. It is a brick that is compressed in a semi-dissolved state of crystal.

The six iron boxes were full of crystal blocks, and they were unusually heavy.

The hole was very deep, and at first glance it was excavated by machinery, and the traces of machinery were very obvious.

Qi Zhiming had no interest in going down to inspect it, so he drove Xiao Bu to enter the cave to absorb the energy of the crystal, and then rested in the formation on the spot.

When I woke up in the morning, I rearranged the hidden and trapped enemy formations.

Hidden the six large boxes.

Qi Zhiming and the princess took the clansman and embarked on the journey back to Mermaid Island.
