Fang Hao picked up the clay sculpture casually and asked with a smile.

The material of the clay sculpture is relatively general, and the subtle concave and convex on it can be found when stroked, but the shape is more expressive.

It can be seen that the people who make clay sculptures have good craftsmanship.

"Oh! It's Aunt Tricy from the village, and she's very good at making these clay sculptures. Marken replied with a smile.

Marken didn't know much about Aunt Tricy.

Aunt Trissy, although she was from the village, lived in the temple when she was young.

Much older than Marken, when he returned, he was already the village chief.

The auxiliary priests of the temple all have a certain amount of healing and herbal knowledge, but they can understand the function of Cordyceps.

The two chatted, and the rest of them also returned.

Aside from a few struggles and traces left by rats, there were no extra clues.

Of course, none of the people present were good at solving crimes, but they were all good at committing murders.

"Come, Mr. Macken, and take me to meet Aunt Tricy." Fang Hao said, the clay sculpture in his hand was still in his hand.

When Ma Ken heard that Fang Hao wanted to see Tricy, I still thought he frowned.

Tricy is close to 70 years old, and his personality is not very easy to deal with.

Seeing that Fang Hao insisted on going, Ma Ken didn't say much, and hinted at Tricy's strange temper while leading the way in front.

If something happens, don't take it to heart.

……

It took about a few minutes to walk.

In the distance, I saw an old woman with white hair sitting in front of a house.

"She's Aunt Tricy, she's a very good person, but she has a weird temper." Marken whispered.

Trissy, who was not far away, only glanced at everyone, and then lowered his head again and was busy with the work in hand.

A few people stepped forward, and Marken squeezed out a smile and said loudly: "Aunt Trissie, these people have come from Lisis City to help the village solve the rat infestation, and they have come to see you." ”

"I'm not deaf, what are you doing so loudly!" Aunt Trissy had a cold face, and looked at Fang Hao and his party again.

When he saw Fang Hao's hands behind his back and the female clay sculpture he was holding, his eyes changed slightly, but he returned to normal in an instant.

Ma Ken smiled embarrassedly, he, the village chief, was really not majestic on Tricy's side.

"Aunt Tricy, don't lose your temper for a while, these guards are coming from the city, we still expect them to get rid of rats." Marken whispered.

Trissy gave him a blank look and said, "Got it, you go back first, and I'll let them go to you when we're done." ”

"Oh, okay." Ma Ken looked at Fang Hao again and said, "Lord Fang Hao, you talk first, and then I'll take you to see the place where the rats are troubled after talking." ”

"Okay." Fang Hao agreed.

Marken left, and Fang Hao also leaned over with someone.

"You're the guards of the city?" Trissy was the first to ask.

This team is actually quite eccentric.

Except for Fang Hao, who seemed to be relatively easy to contact, the rest except for the mountain bandits were foreign races.

Although it is mighty, it still carries some gangsterism.

"Yes." Fang Hao replied, sat down not far from Tricy, and put the clay sculpture in his hand in front of him, "Aunt Tricy, is there any contradiction with the deceased Brummer?" ”

Along the way, Fang Hao and Ma Ken also learned some things.

Trissy is a herbalist, and she treats anyone in the village who is injured.

In addition to not having a good temper, it can be said that he is very loved in the village.

Such a person, to kill Brummer, will only be some of these contradictions.

"Aren't you here to solve the rat infestation? Also interested in these things? Trissy said, his voice still unfriendly.

"Rats eat people, which is also included in the scope of this mission, you say." Fang Hao was still smiling.

"That's right, you people will only waste your energy on currying favor with the nobles and the people." Tricy sneered again.

Then without waiting for Fang Hao to continue asking, Trissy spoke again, "When I was still an auxiliary priest of the temple, there were several cases in the temple, someone desecrated the auxiliary priest of the temple and cut off their heads, 6 girls died in half a month, the youngest of them was only 9 years old, and then the temple put pressure on the city lord's mansion and launched a comprehensive search, although this kind of thing never happened again, but no one was caught, and the matter was over." ”

At this point, Trissy stopped talking, but kept his head down and went about his work.

However, the follow-up story, Fang Hao also naturally made up his brain.

Trissy discovers that Blumer has something to do with it, but he is old and has no sufficient evidence.

Using the herb knowledge he was once familiar with, he killed Brummer.

"And then, did the murderer get caught?" Anja asked.

Trissy glanced at the orc girl and nodded slightly, "Caught, dead...... ”

"It's cheap, let me catch him, don't torture him for two years, and then transform him into a skeleton ......."

Fang Hao covered her mouth and said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense." ”

"Oh!" Anjia sighed and didn't continue.

After the story was told, the doubts in Fang Hao's heart were also solved.

But it seems that this mission, I ran for nothing, there is no special monster stronghold, and there is no treasure chest reward.

Fang Hao looked at Trissy and continued: "If you want to get rid of the rats, the best way to get them together is to get rid of them, is there any good way for Aunt Tricy here?" ”

Tricy didn't say much, got up and staggered into the house.

He took out a small medicine bottle and walked out.

【Cordyceps liquid】

【Category:Liquid medicine】

(Description: A liquid that emits a special odor.) ）

"There are two large rat nests on the east side of the village, you can go there and try it." Tricy said.

Rats are hard to eradicate, and even if you can lure them in, there's no good way to kill them.

"Well, then we won't bother Aunt Tricy."

After speaking, Fang Hao took the clay sculpture and the Cordyceps liquid and left directly.

Trissy looked at the few people who were leaving, and there was confusion in his eyes.

Aren't they the guards of the city?

Don't you catch the murderer?

……

Fang Hao and the others left and found Macken again.

In fact, Ma Ken didn't go far, for fear that Fang Hao and Tricy would quarrel, and he would have to persuade him.

Unexpectedly, it only took more than ten minutes for Fang Hao to come back.

"Lord Fang Hao." Marken greeted him.

"Well, let's go, Aunt Trissy said that there are two large rat nests on the east side of the village, do you know the location?" Fang Hao asked.

"Yes, it's not far to the east."

The place where Marken said he was going to take Fang Hao was the rat's nest.

But there is no good way to burn and flood.

"Okay, take us around."

"Oh, okay."

Marken walked out of the east gate with a few men.

After not going far, I saw two raised mounds of earth in the woods.

"This is a rat's nest, I don't know when it was built here." Marken said, looking at the rat's nest.

The damage caused by the rats to the village is not large, and Macken's concern is that the rats eat people.

He didn't know anything about Tricy, he just thought that rats would eat people when they went crazy.

If you can eat the first, you can eat the second.

Won't this village be gone!

"Okay, I know, you go back to the village first, we can't take care of you if there's any danger." Fang Hao continued.

"It's still dangerous! Okay, then you should be careful. With that, Mark quickly left.

When Ma Ken walked away, Fang Hao found a stone cave nearby.

After checking in the stone cave, he felt that there were no passages and holes, so he put the [Cranial Mouse Brain Stem Clay Sculpture] into it, opened the Cordyceps liquid, and poured out a drop and landed on the head of the clay sculpture.

As soon as it was poured, there was a faint fishy sweet smell in the cave.

Not full-bodied.

After doing everything, Fang Hao went directly out of the stone cave and came to the place where An Jia and the others were hiding.

The crowd looked at the cave in front of them.

After a while, there was a sound of rustling in the surrounding forests.

A large number of rats, mixed with a few hedgehogs, lined up in a long line like ants moving, rushed into the depths of the stone cave.

Fang Hao felt that it was almost over, took out a few detonators from the storage space, opened the safety and threw them directly into the cave.

Rumble!!

After the loud bang, the entire cave also collapsed.

"It's over?" Anja asked softly.

"Well, it should be over." Fang Hao also nodded.

The crowd approached and conducted a brief inspection of the surrounding area of the cave.

The cave collapsed completely, and not a single rat escaped.

"Let's go to the rat's nest."

Fang Hao still didn't give up, and led a group of people and horses back to the rat's nest in the east of the village.

"Dig!"

Fang Hao took out the tools from the storage space, and the mountain bandits picked up their arms and began to dig.

Ten minutes later, a deep pit was dug out of the bulging mountain pack.

"Yes, my lord, there is something."

Under the pit, there was a sudden exclamation from the mountain bandits.

Fang Hao immediately looked down, only to see that in the dirt pit, a corner of the treasure chest was exposed.

Even though the rest of the part is still buried in the dirt pit, it can be seen that it is a black iron treasure chest.

It's okay, it's better than nothing.

"Bring it up."

The treasure chest was carried up, and Fang Hao opened it directly.

[Obtained: Black Shovel Crafting Blueprints, Granary Construction Blueprints, 25 Battle Coins.] 】

Don't look at it as a Black Iron Chest.

But the drawings given are really what Fang Hao doesn't have.

The black shovel is a tool for digging soil.

There are also granaries, also new drawings.

[First-class granary: wood 500, stone 450, thatch 300, leather 220, iron 50.]

(Description: Heat and moisture insulation, prevent rodents and insects, and better store grain.) ）

The granary was a real surprise.

There are no battles, and the harvest is not bad.

It's better than those silver chests that open duplicate blueprints.

"Fill in the hole, and we'll go back."

The bandits filled the pit again, and the large group returned to the village.

……

Twenty minutes later.

Near the collapsed stone cave.

Squeak squeak!!

A group of rats quickly came to the cave, raised their noses, and tried to sniff something.

These rats resemble normal mice.

The brain above the head is exposed, encased in a transparent membrane.

The rats' brains fluttered like resonance.

As if a consensus had been reached, the stones began to be moved.

A hole was removed. A mouse crawled in and dragged out a broken piece of clay.

The rats gave a humane look of confirmation, took the pieces, and quickly left.
