On the cracked land, the further you go to the top of the mountain, the more cracks in the ground there are, and there are fewer plants growing around, and in many places you can only see bare stones and dry hard soil.

The wind on the top of the mountain was gradually subsiding, the sun was scorching, and many of the wild mice waiting here had begun to be thirsty, but they did not leave, and their paws only squeezed forward, not backward. His eyes were fixed on the changing color of the ears of grain on the top of the mountain, and his neck was stretched thinner and longer so that he could see better what was on the top of the mountain.

The ears of grain are changing color, and the dark gold color is gradually becoming lighter, and the dull surface is becoming shiny, and it looks like it is shining gold from a distance.

"Squeak-"

I don't know which wild mouse barked.

This was like a signal to act, and the wild rats that were holding back their strength moved in an instant, and their brains rushed forward.

The big wild mice at the head were about to jump up and bite the ears of grain, when suddenly they heard a whooshing sound in their ears and something shooting from behind.

Immediately after, with a cracking sound of "click", an unpleasant smell rose around. Wild mice that smell these smells begin to be in a trance and walk unsteadily.

This was just the beginning, and the last dense clicking sound rang out one after another, smashing into the crowd of rats.

Shao Xuan held his breath, smashed the "artifact", and quickly rushed to the top of the mountain, and then stayed there, smashing while dealing with the rats rushing over.

The medicine prepared by the old man has already turned over a large number of wild mice, although it can't solve all the wild mice, but it has greatly reduced Shao Xuan's pressure, and it is quite easy to deal with the remaining ones, after all, they are just wild mice, not fierce beasts. Shao Xuan smashed the "artifact" with one hand, and held a broom-like thing tied with branches in the other, and swept vigorously when he saw the wild mouse pounce.

In fact, Shao Xuan preferred to use a more fierce weapon, but the old man himself made this broom. said that it was useful to deal with wild mice, so Shao Xuan used it.

Sure enough, after being swept by this "broom", those wild mice seemed to be stained with something they didn't like very much, and they hesitated to approach immediately.

The big wild mice that jumped up and bit the ears of grain before wanted to fall to the ground with the grains in their mouths after smelling the smell. The legs did not stand firm and rolled a few times, but they could carry it longer than other wild mice, knowing that things had changed, they ran away with the grain in their mouths, but unfortunately they were caught by the old man guarding outside.

The old man used some leftover materials from the previous medicine to apply some of the residues on the branches and leaves, circled the wooden stick, and after lighting it, the fire was extinguished, and thick smoke would rise on it, and the smell of these thick smoke was even more pungent. It's a pity that the medicinal properties are far inferior to those powders that were refined before, and it is impossible to achieve the effect of poisoning a piece in a flash. But now it's more than enough to deal with these big wild mice.

Seeing that Shao Xuan was blocking the top of the mountain, there was a great deal of power to be invincible, and the old man was relieved, and concentrated on dealing with those rats that slipped through the net, these must be those with grains in their mouths!

By the time the "artifact" that Shao Xuan was carrying was used up, a large number of wild mice had already fallen on the top of the mountain. It's like a ratskin carpet.

As for the wild mice that escaped the drug, they were swept away by Shao Xuan's broom when they rushed up.

The old man finished solving the mouse that slipped through the net. He immediately ran to the plants on the top of the mountain and carefully touched the bunches of grains. Because I wasn't sure if this was an annual plant, I didn't dare to cut it indiscriminately, otherwise I would have told Shao Xuan to cut it all and take it away, and I wouldn't have stayed here and been fighting with those wild mice.

Raising his hand and brushing it a little harder, the old man took all the grains off the ear grain.

Pack the grains all into a cloth bag. The old man called Shao Xuan: "Let's go, leave the rest of the wild rats alone." ”

Waiting for the old man's words, Shao Xuan waved his broom, jumped up, and left the place with a few ups and downs. However, when he came out of the rat circle, Shao Xuan picked up a few fat wild mice and added dinner later. It is difficult to see a large beast in this barren mountain, and it is not easy to eat meat properly. Just take this opportunity to catch a few.

"Take the millet away, and those few trees stay in place, not afraid of being destroyed by the wild mice?" Shao Xuan asked the old man. If it weren't for the fact that the old man felt sorry for those plants and thought that there was still value in research, Shao Xuan would not have worked so hard and cut that piece of trouble earlier.

"The wild mice are not interested in those grains, they only want to eat these grains, and as for the few trees that remain there, the roots are too deep to dig, and it is not convenient to dig them out...... Forget it, next time, I'll bring someone over when I get back. As long as the trees didn't wither before he brought them here, he would transplant them all into his own field and study them.

"Those drugged wild mice woke up, and I don't know if they will faint again. Aren't you afraid of their retaliation?" Shao Xuan quipped.

The old man who was holding a bag of grains like a baby raised his eyebrows when he heard Shao Xuan's words: "Retaliation? Why should I be afraid? Next time, I won't give them a chance to retaliate." "The next time he comes, he will definitely bring more people, and he won't be afraid of those wild mice.

Leaving the mountain and finding a place to sit and rest, Shao Xuan stretched out his hand to the old man, "Take it out and take a look, let me see what the legendary thousand grains of gold look like, I just went to sweep the wild mice, I didn't pay attention to it." ”

Old man Ju hesitated, did not open the bag containing the grains, but took out one from another small bag and put it in Shao Xuan's palm.

Shao Xuan looked at the round grain in his palm, which was about the size of a soybean and had a golden shell, and there were tooth marks on it—bitten out by wild mice.

Although one grain is only so big, you can feel the obvious weight when you start it, and it is much heavier than Shao Xuan thought.

However, with such a mutilated grain, Shao Xuan can't do it.

"Anyway, I also have credit, are you embarrassed to only share me with this?" Shao Xuan pinched the broken grain and shook it at the old man.

"What do you want this for?" the old man guarded his things tightly.

"Eat. "Be concise.

Hearing this, the old man's eyebrows were raised quickly: "Eat ?!!"

"Aren't these planted for food?"

"But we haven't started planting a lot yet! these intact ones can only be used as seeds, not eaten!" the old man was very resolute.

"Okay, you divide some of me, and I'll go back to the tribe to plant in the future." Seeing what the old man was going to say, Shao Xuanjia said: "Even if I don't know how to plant, there must be people in our tribe who understand." Don't be stingy, come on, divide it. Anyway, there are 1,000 grains on that plant, and there are so many plants on the top of the mountain, even if some are taken away by the wild mice, there are tens of thousands of grains that can be received, half of them. ”

"Half?!" the old man glared, "Impossible, impossible, I can give you the rest, but this one can't give you that much!"

"Okay, half of half, three thousand grains. Shao Xuan said.

The old man held his breath and didn't say anything, but the wrinkled skin on the old face twitched and twitched, as if he was trying his best to endure it.

In the end, the old man only gave Shao Xuan a thousand grains, still looking like cutting meat, and his heart trembled with regret when he counted one, as if he had foreseen the end of these grains being spoiled into his stomach by Shao Xuan.

"If not...... If it weren't for your kid helping me on this journey, I wouldn't have given you a single one!" said the old man with a bitter face.

"Hey, don't be so negative, maybe you can't grow it, but I will grow it?"

The old man only shook his head vigorously, he didn't believe it anyway. (To be continued......)
