That's a common tool used when taming animals, how did it end up here?

Then, He Lingchuan saw a strange creature appear on the wall of the courtyard.

It looks like a badger, like a flying squirrel, and a bit like a sea otter, and is like a house cat, but it has no hair, and its skin is gray with black spots, very similar to its surroundings, but with thick folds.

Its eyes were small and flashing red, and it suddenly met He Lingchuan's eyes.

The coldness and malice in those little eyes made his heart tighten, and his right hand subconsciously touched the knife.

The little monster turned its head sideways and turned in a different direction to face He Lingchuan.

At this moment, a dark brown figure suddenly fell from the sky, and took advantage of its unpreparedness to swoop down the flying monster like lightning.

It was only faster than an off-string arrow.

The two things got tangled together and rolled down the wall.

They landed in Sun Poria's yard.

He Lingchuan simply walked out of the window and jumped onto the wall to look.

It turned out that the figure jumping down from the sky was a sparrowhawk, He Lingchuan had met with it several times, and he had also cooperated with the spider's nest in the crypt, he was an old acquaintance, and he even knew how many spots there were on its tail.

The sparrowhawk screams as it fights, its claws tearing its beak and pecking. If the eyesight is poor, he can only see two shadows colliding together, feathers flying.

But He Lingchuan could see clearly, the sparrowhawk fell downwind!

With the force of its volley, even the weasel demon was also caught and killed, but the little monster in front of him acted as if nothing had happened, as if the skin had not been scratched, and he went to bite the sparrowhawk.

It was more agile than the Weasel Demon, focusing on the Sparrowhawk's feet and neck, and the latter dodged twice, but still had a large bite on the leg, and He Lingchuan saw the blood rush out.

The little monster attacked its throat again, and the sparrowhawk blocked it with its wings, but the wings were bitten by the other party wildly, and the bird feathers flew away.

In the blink of an eye, the sparrowhawk's life is in danger.

It is also a soldier of Panlong City, He Lingchuan will not sit idly by, grab the ice and snow on the wall and throw it out.

The little monster was startled, and when he turned his head, he saw a flash of white flowers in front of him.

It suffers from being so small that each snowball obscures its view.

He Lingchuan jumped to the ground, slapped the sparrowhawk away with the back of his knife, pulled out the dagger with his left hand, and poked it at the little monster.

Unbeknownst to him, this thing was so flexible that it slipped up like a gust of wind, parkouring directly on He Lingchuan. From its point of view, a human being is ridiculously bulky.

After a few dings, He Lingchuan still blocked its attack on the vital point. The diligent practice of "Yan Hui" has a small success, the most important thing is that he has experience, this kind of little monster with full agility points is often weak in attack, so it will first attack the opponent's throat, eyes, heart and other vital points.

At the same time, he also took the opportunity to stuff something into his mouth and chew hard.

The little monster missed several times, and made a snapping sound again, and He Lingchuan realized that it was the sound of its gnashing teeth.

Then it changed its mind and went to bite him on the belly.

He Lingchuan was wearing light armor, but its front teeth were more powerful than rats, and it bit through the leather armor with a few snaps. Then it suddenly shrunk like a mouse, curled up and drilled into the hole!

He Lingchuan's surprise was not trivial, because a sharp pain came from his abdomen immediately after-

This thing is going to make a hole in his stomach and get out of it, and then burrow into it and gnaw at the internal organs!

Just looking at the speed at which it gnawed through the leather armor, it would probably only take a few breaths to penetrate his stomach.

He Lingchuan is not afraid of death in his dreams, but he doesn't do this kind of death, it's too aggrieved.

In the blink of an eye, the monster was left with only a bare tail pointed out. He Lingchuan didn't have time to think about it, so he grabbed it and dragged it out.

With a snap, the monster's tail broke.

This thing is actually like a gecko, which can survive in a critical moment.

But after all, it was dragged out for a short distance, He Lingchuan was quick to spit out the chewed things in his mouth, stuck directly to the little monster, and then slapped it away with a palm.

Just shoot it away from his body, lest it make a hole in another part.

He used a lot of strength, but the little monster landed and rolled twice, and there was nothing to do, so he got up and continued to attack.

But after only a few steps, it realized that something was wrong:

The limbs and belly are glued, and it is inconvenient to move with your hands and feet.

When it looked down, its body was stuck with a large piece of milky white gelatin, and it raised its claws to push it, but the claws were also stuck and couldn't pull it out.

The little monster is crazy and gnaws at this white and sticky thing.

However, it didn't work much, it just let my mouth sink in, and I couldn't open it again.

After just a dozen breaths, it fell to the ground, covered in milky white soft rubber.

The more you struggle, the more desperate you become.

Sparrowhawk, resting on the side, asked, "What is this?" ”

"Some kind of youkai?" He Lingchuan wasn't sure, this thing looked too ugly.

"What are you using?"

"Bird Catcher." He Lingchuan smiled at it.

"......" The sparrowhawk, which is a bird, shrunk its neck.

"Don't look at it as inconspicuous, it's very reliable for catching wild boars, mountain deer and small monsters, as long as it doesn't get wet." This trick was taught to him by Wicker, and it was especially convenient to hunt wild food outside on weekdays. It is said that hunters will take a certain kind of tree sap as a base to blend a strong bird trap gum, which is usually solid, easy to carry, and melts when heated. So chew it before using it.

However, it is not afraid of sticking to the mouth, because it loses its stickiness when it gets wet.

But the little monster on the ground seemed to be able to understand human speech, and when he heard the word "wet", he dragged the glue and rolled on the snow.

Glue is afraid of water, isn't it water when the snow melts?

He Lingchuan was taken aback, and hurriedly went into the kitchen to grab a straw basket and came out, and as soon as he fished it out, he fished it inside.

The monster grinned at him, but unfortunately couldn't move.

Getting closer, He Lingchuan actually smelled a salty and damp smell from it, a bit like the sea breeze, and a bit like ......

Some kind of divide?

He grabbed his dagger and slashed it at the monster.

It looks thin-skinned, but it doesn't break the skin this time. The dagger slid out like a scratch on the pliable cowhide.

This scene is familiar, He Lingchuan frowned, grabbed the dagger and stabbed it with heavy force.

It didn't even work out.

The monster's skin is poked into a small hole, but it doesn't break the skin.

"Interesting." This time he pulled out the floating knife.

"Squeak, squeak." The little monster cried out in pain, and a bloody cut was made on its back, and pale green blood flowed out.

"Sure enough, you're also wanted." Sure enough, the Floating Life Knife did not disappoint him.

Grasping this thing, He Lingchuan was not happy but worried. Who knows how many such monsters still lurk in the entire Panlong City? They are either infinitely powerful, or they are extremely fast, in short, they are destructive, and they are invulnerable, how can ordinary soldiers and civilians deal with it?

And he also knows that this thing eats people.

He was looking at the monster when there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside, it was coming here.

He Lingchuan opened the courtyard door and saw a patrol guard hurrying over, looking left and right.

"What are you looking for?" He Lingchuan showed his patrol sign.

"I just received a distress signal." The man looked anxious, "It looks like there are monsters here." ”

Only then did He Lingchuan grab the straw basket from behind him: "It's this thing that is causing trouble." ”

The patrol saw the appearance of the monster in the hall and was startled: "Yes, it should be these ghosts!" I still hear the fighting, is anyone hurt? ”

"Yes." He Lingchuan glanced back, and the sparrowhawk was standing on the back of a chair in Sun Ling's courtyard, closing his eyes and recuperating.

The guard also saw it: "I'll take it back and heal it." ”

The sparrowhawk flapped its wings and flew crookedly onto the roof.

“……”

"Forget it, I'll take care of it." He Lingchuan came out and closed the door, and the guard was stunned: "Where are you going?" ”

"Carry this thing to exchange for military merit." He Lingchuan shook the straw basket, "It seems that I have been scratching these things a lot." "So military merit will be generous, right?

The guard said, "I'm going to go back and report it, so I'll bring it to you." ”

"What's so embarrassing?" He Lingchuan hesitated, "You want to help me submit military merits?" ”

"No problem." The Patrolman showed his sign with a name and a surname, "Please tell me your name and serial number." ”

Because the military register is compiled into a book, each person has a serial number, which is convenient to find.

After He Lingchuan reported it, he handed over the straw basket: "Then it's troublesome for you." ”

"You're welcome." The patrol nodded, took the straw basket and left.

He Lingchuan watched his back disappear into the corner of the street, always feeling as if he was missing something, but he couldn't remember anything.

At this time, there was a sound of flapping wings from behind, and he looked back to see that the sparrowhawk wanted to fly down from the roof, but crashed halfway through.

Fortunately, the snow on the ground was thick.

He walked back and picked it up, jumped back to his house in two steps, and then went into the house to treat it.

Don't look at the monster's size and mouth, a large piece of meat was torn off the sparrowhawk's leg, and the wings that protected the throat were also torn apart, several flying feathers were gone, and the wings were seriously fractured, obviously the little monster was also very impulsive.

"With this injury, don't think about going to heaven in two months." He Lingchuan scratched his head, "Connect the wings first, and don't move after it's set." I'll have to get Arlo some medicine for you. ”

A few months ago, he was a novice who could only look at gauze in a daze, but now he can be regarded as half a master who treats bruises.

A long-term injury becomes a good doctor, and I am not deceived.

He Lingchuan treated it while asking, "How are you chasing this thing?" ”

"Recently, these monsters have been so rampant that they have caused more than a dozen lives, which has made the people of Panlong City uneasy. In addition to the patrols, the city also issued a wanted warrant. Sparrowhawk said sullenly, "I flew high and saw far, and I was sent to patrol the sky." ”

He Lingchuan can understand the mentality of the city people, Panlong City has always been labeled as "safe" and "efficient", and it is the benchmark for city governance.

"How many monsters have you caught now?"

"Including today's head, there are six."
