Chapter 277: Drill the mink
After Huang Jian finished speaking, he rushed forward with Ye Li and Mu Tianyi.
He kept discerning the footprints on the ground, followed the trails left by the burrowing mink, and soon came to a hill.
The hillock is about 100 meters in circumference, only about 20 meters high, and it does not seem to be too large, except for the green top, the whole hillock is completely made of bare rocks.
Huang Jian stopped about ten meters away from the hill, then looked ahead and said, "That's right, the footprints of the drill mink extend into the hill in front."
Look, there's a little cave there!"
After Huang Jian lowered his body, he pointed not far ahead, where a small cave with a height of one person appeared on the rock wall of the hillock.
"Brother Huang, is this the nest of the burrowing mink?"
Ye Li glanced at the cave, and then asked.
Huang Jian nodded and said, "Well, it should be right, there is the nest of the burrowing mink, but this should only be one of the entrances."
There must be three exits to the burrowing marten's nest, and they are definitely distributed in three different directions, and we will definitely find it if we look around this hill for a while.
The footprints just now have all entered the hillock in front of them, and the demon beast like the drill mink will generally not move for a short time after returning to the nest, and it should still be in it now.
Let's go around the hill and find out the other holes. ”
After Huang Jian finished speaking, he excitedly led Ye Li and Mu Tianzhi to search along the hillock.
The location of this hill is unique, it is in the middle of a wide valley.
Topography, the hill looks like a raised rock in a narrow river, with water flowing through both sides and converging in front of it.
When the three of them circled to the sides of the knoll, the cliffs beside them had already closed up, and then converged on the other side opposite the entrance of the cave, and stretched straight ahead.
After the three of them went around in a circle, they found three holes around the knoll.
In addition to the first opening, there is a hole on the left side of the hill, and opposite the first hole, there is another hole where the mountain walls converge on the other side of the hill.
After looking around, Huang Jian waved his hand at the three of them and said, "Let's go, let's take a look along this valley, I guess this side will definitely not be a dead end, there must be a good way out for the mink in front."
This monster beast is very timid and cautious, there must be a passage near the lair to escape, and they will definitely not let themselves be killed. ”
Ye Li and Mu Tianzhi followed Huang Jian and continued to move forward, walking along the narrow mountain road that gathered together, and after about two incense sticks, a mountain wall appeared in front of them, and there was a big hole in the mountain wall, and they didn't know where it led.
"See, this guy is very cunning, and if there is any danger of entering through the hole over there, this guy will escape from the hole on this side, and then run all the way here, and get into this cave and escape.
The terrain is much more familiar than we are here, and we may not be able to catch it if we really want it to burrow into this cave.
Brother Ye, Brother Mu, let's quickly seal this cave entrance first, so that its escape route will become a dead end.
After a while, Brother Mu and I went to the top two holes to guard it, and then attacked the holes at the same time, alarming it.
With the courage of the burrowing marten, it will certainly not fight us, but will choose to flee from the hole where it has not been attacked.
This valley is its pre-planned escape route, Brother Ye, you are ambushed here, just before it rushes to the mountain wall, and the moment it finds that there is no passage, it must be captured alive. ”
After Huang Jian checked the terrain and had a plan in his heart, he said to the two of them with excitement on his face.
After hearing this, Ye Li and Mu Tianyi also understood that this plan was very feasible, as long as they could know the habits of the burrowing mink, it would be much easier to set a trap to catch it.
Huang Jian said to Ye Li: "Brother Ye, you will ambush here, and wait for the drill mink to enter this dead road and capture it alive."
You're the fastest, and even if it notices something unusual and wants to turn back, you should be able to catch up.
Brother Mu and I will go to the first two holes in a moment, and then attack the holes at the same time, just force the mink out of this hole. ”
Ye Li nodded when he heard Huang Jian's arrangement, and said, "Okay, I'll go to the cliff to ambush, there is a small gap on it, and I should be able to hide in it." ”
When Ye Li was looking around, he suddenly found that there was a small gap in the cliff wall opposite, and if he climbed up, he could barely hide in it.
That position was not far from the ground, and Ye Li was completely able to launch a spell on it to trap the drill mink that had entered here.
Huang Jian glanced at the small gap in the cliff wall and nodded in surprise.
The three of them quickly moved to seal the hole on the mountain wall, and after Huang Jian took Mu Tianzhi to turn around and go back, preparing to go to the previous two cave entrances to implement the plan.
After Huang Jian and Mu Tianzhi left, Ye Li jumped towards the cliff with agility, and the whole person was like an ape, climbing the cliff with great speed, and then the whole person shrank into a small gap.
The position of this gap is not bad, if you don't look carefully, you can't see that there are people inside, but Ye Li is on it, but he can clearly capture the movement below.
Shrinking in the gap, Ye Li waited for about a quarter of an hour, and suddenly there were several explosions in the distance, which sounded like the sound of various explosive spells, and it seemed that Huang Jian and the others had already launched an attack.
The two of them were in front of the two holes in the hill at this time, and deliberately launched a spell with a loud blasting sound, intending to scare the burrowing marten inside.
Sure enough, just as they continued to launch spell attacks towards the entrance of the cave, there was a movement in the cave on the other side, and then a large mink-shaped demon beast the size of a cheetah and covered in earth yellow came out of the hole and quickly rushed into the narrow valley in front of it.
This demon beast is the drill mink that Ye Li and they want to catch, and the reason why Huang Jian didn't let Ye Li ambush at the entrance of this cave is because the drill marten reacts quickly and is very fast.
Huang Jian was afraid that if it was attacked at the entrance of the cave, it would turn around and burrow back into the hole.
After all, the name of the drill marten has the word drill mountain, which means that it has a strong digging ability, if this guy is forced back into the nest, and finally chooses to dig a hole to escape, it will be difficult to catch it alive.
Ye Li, who was waiting on the cliff wall, had already lifted his spirits when he heard the sound of explosions, and focused his attention on the valley road below.
Soon, a rush of footsteps came out, and it was obvious that the burrowing marten had approached this side, and it was about time for Ye Li to make a move.
