After chatting with Aunt Qi, Lu Xiaofei also had a general understanding of Lujia Village.

Therefore, the land is mountainous and rocky, and the arable land is little and barren, except for purple potatoes, there are really no local products that can be used, and the conditions of several other villages around are similar. The daily staple food of the villagers is mostly purple potatoes, and occasionally they can catch a few bamboo rats to make a tooth sacrifice and taste it.

But when Lu Xiaofei proposed to buy extra purple potatoes, Aunt Qi refused, the reason was very simple, this was a ration, a life-saving thing, and it could never be sold.

Even Aunt Qi thought so, Lu Xiaofei didn't need to ask to know that it was blind to buy it from other villagers.

Therefore, before becoming the village chief, if you want the villagers to taste the sweetness and mix with him, you have to make up your mind on the bamboo rat.

On weekdays, the villagers themselves are reluctant to eat bamboo rat meat, so naturally they won't let it go to him, and Lu Xiaofei didn't bother to bother with words, so he decided to do it himself.

But he has also seen the cleverness of the bamboo rat, if he is as stupid as the villagers to hit mosquitoes with a big stick, he can only eat ashes behind the butt of the bamboo rat.

He had to think of a good way, preferably a trap that could catch a lot of traps in one net to impress the villagers.

It is known that the natural enemies of rats are cats and snakes.

Regardless of whether the bamboo rat is related to the rat of his time and space, Lu Xiaofei believes that the principle of the food chain is eternal, even if it is not a cat, it is some other creature.

When he asked Aunt Qi this question, Aunt Qi was talking about the cat's color change.

The reason why the fantasy world is called fantasy is that it does not refer to human beings, but to other creatures in this world.

It can even be said that in the fantasy world, human beings are no longer at the top of the food chain, but at the end of the food chain, belonging to the kind of lower creatures that may be eaten at any time.

And the cat in the fantasy world is a cat and not a cat, and is called a human-faced cat by humans.

In other words, cats in this world have faces similar to humans, as long as they are dressed to cover the animal hair on their bodies and hide their sharp scratches, cats will never be suspected when they are mixed in the crowd.

If it was just that she looked like a human, Aunt Qi would not talk about the color change, but another terrifying feature of the human-faced cat.

Cannibalism, and exclusively eats babies.

A few years ago, he was attacked by a human-faced cat in Lujia Village, not only ate a baby who was just a few days old, but also put his bones back into the cradle where the baby slept before his death, and left a book saying that the meat was delicious, leaving the bones for the mother of the baby who was still recovering to make soup to make up for the body and continue to give birth to one, he will come.

Although the rampant human-faced cat was eventually found and burned to death by angry villagers, Lujia Village also paid a heavy price for it. In the years that followed, almost every once in a while, the village was attacked by bamboo rats, and even the surrounding villages and towns were not spared.

It turns out that cats are natural enemies of rats and bamboo rats. The only difference in this world is that Lu Xiaofei's world is a cat eating a mouse, while this world is a mouse obeying orders and a cat.

The fact that Lujia Village, which had never been attacked by organized bamboo rats before, was attacked after burning the human-faced cat is enough to prove that there must be a cat behind the bamboo rat.

Cats can't be counted on, Lu Xiaofei dares to believe that snakes will be different, and even if it is the same as the snakes in his world, he doesn't have so many people to catch them, and it's not even useful if he doesn't have them.

Therefore, Lu Xiaofei still feels that he can have enough food and clothing by doing his hands.

After pondering for a long time, there was no good way, but the stupid way was to think of one, which was to set a trap and use purple potatoes as bait.

Although he knew that no one would help him, Lu Xiaofei still pulled a helper, Aunt Qi's son.

is not very old, only fourteen or fifteen years old, the tiger head is very strong, and there is also a name that is easy to feed, Lu Ergou.

Because he was afraid that the old ghost of Lu Zhengfeng in the village would make trouble, Lu Xiaofei did not choose to set a trap in the village or at the entrance of the village, but chose the only way for the bamboo rat to retreat, that is, he had just appeared on the gentle slope of this world.

The trap is not complicated, it is to dig a pit in the ground, and it does not need to be too deep, just enough to trap the bamboo rat.

Lu Ergou is a sincere child, and he doesn't ask why he digs these pits, anyway, when Lu Xiaofei says where to dig, he will follow with a hoe to dig somewhere.

For a whole afternoon, the two of them dug a dozen and a half people-high, about one meter square soil pit along the gentle slope.

After completing the first step, Lu Xiaofei carried out the second step, basket weaving.

Lu Xiaofei and Lu Ergou came to the bamboo cutting forest on the mountain south of the village, there was no nonsense, and they crackled and cut a bunch of thicker bamboos.

Although he had never worked as a carpenter, he could barely break the bamboo and weave a simple bamboo basket.

Looking at his masterpiece for three consecutive days, although Lu Xiaofei had a sense of accomplishment, he still wondered whether this was a basket or a fence, he wouldn't get the seams, all of them were tied up with vines, in order not to let go of any prey, the bamboo strips were basically next to each other, and the dense result was that the weight of a basket was definitely fifty catties, and it took a whole day for the two of them to transport these bamboo baskets to the pit on a gentle slope.

Because the size of the pit digging is different, and the bamboo basket is made of strange shapes, in order to make each pit can put down the bamboo basket, the two of them spent another day just repairing it.

The trap was done, and a week had passed.

Although Lu Xiaofei did not deal with the villagers as much as possible, his strange behavior with Lu Ergou still alarmed Lu Zhengfeng, who rarely went out of the house.

Soon, the old guy led a group of villagers to the door, and when he came up, he spit at Lu Xiaofei with a cane, "Lu Cannon, two dogs, you two don't work in the field, what are you doing on the mountain?"

When Lu Ergou saw that the village chief was menacing, he was so frightened that he ran behind Aunt Qi and hid, not even daring to show his face.

Lu Xiaofei didn't like this old thing horizontally and vertically, and it was also a stumbling block for him to be the village head, so naturally he didn't have a good face to entertain, and said unhurriedly, "Set a trap to catch bamboo rats!"

"Phew. ”

As soon as the words fell, Lu Zhengfeng spat on him, pointed to the dirt pits on the gentle slope with his cane, and said, "That's it...... I think you kid is just not enough to succeed and more than to lose, and there is no help. ”

After speaking, he ignored Lu Xiaofei anymore, turned to the villagers behind him and said, "As your village chief, the old man is here to announce that Lu Cannon will be expelled from our Lujia Village." ”

Seeing that Aunt Qi and a few villagers showed unbearable expressions, they hurriedly turned around and said to Lu Xiaofei, "From now on, you are no longer from Lujia Village, you will never be allowed to step into our village again, and you will not be able to enter the ancestral grave if you die." ”

"Let's go. ”

With Lu Zhengfeng's leadership, the villagers silently followed him and left the gentle slope, no one helped Lu Xiaofei speak, and no one comforted him, at most they just glanced back like Aunt Qi, but most of them only had banter in their eyes.

From beginning to end, Lu Xiaofei never argued for himself.

He knew in his heart that no matter what he said now, the result would still be the same.
