After making a bet with the two, Bai Canghai saw that it was still early, so he took Bai Man and left together, while the old patriarch Bai Shan stayed behind to continue to accompany Long Zichuan and Zi Ling.

The two of them continued to stay here and gossip, without any preparations, as if they were sure that if they made a move, they would definitely be able to catch the rat demon.

Seeing that the two of them were so confident, the old patriarch Bai Shan was also in a good mood, turned around and prepared some things for the two to eat and drink, and at the same time put the old ginseng back into the inner hall.

In this way, time passed little by little, and the sky gradually darkened.

After dark, it was the time for the rat demon to appear, so under the leadership of Bai Shan, Long Zichuan and Zi Ling came to a place in the stockade to store grain.

It was a self-contained hut, with no other buildings within 10 meters of it, making it look very empty.

It was originally used as a place to store miscellaneous goods, but since the rat demon was infested, it has been transformed into a storehouse for storing grain.

The people left behind in Baijiazhai almost all of their food are concentrated here for storage.

Because the area is very empty, it is easy to find the whereabouts of the rat demon, and the people in the village have laid many traps outside the hut, and some people take turns guarding them day and night.

But even so, the grain in the warehouse was still lost one after another.

The rat demon is very cunning, and it moves very fast, some dangerous traps can be avoided in advance, as for those smaller traps, it can't trap it at all, and before the trap is activated, the cunning mouse 'swishs' into a white shadow and escapes......

Seeing that the people in the village couldn't help it at all, the white-haired mouse became more and more bold, and would come to steal some food almost every night in the middle of the night.

Even after being discovered, he was not in a hurry to flee immediately, but turned into a white shadow and played with the villagers, and then left with satisfaction.

These situations were already clear to the old patriarch to Long Zichuan and Zi Ling.

The two nodded silently, stepped over the trap and entered the warehouse to take a look, and then observed outside the warehouse, and then found a hidden place outside the warehouse and squatted up.

As for Bai Canghai, he held a strange bow and crossbow in his hand and guarded it in the warehouse with Bai Man.

As for the rest of the people in the stockade, they left separately at the request of Long Zichuan.

With him and Zi Ling here, naturally there is no longer a need for the villagers to participate, in case they will startle the snake and help instead.

In this way, time passed little by little, and seeing that it had reached the third watch, Long Zichuan was still very patient in a corner, his eyes scanning the open space outside the warehouse from time to time, and he did not let go of a trace of clues.

And the purple spirit who was hiding in another corner took this opportunity to quietly cultivate the "Turtle Breath Technique".

She gradually discovered that cultivating this technique in this state had an unexpected miraculous effect, and the aura on her body had completely converged at this time, and even Long Zichuan in the distance couldn't sense her existence a little, and couldn't help but wonder where she went?

As for Bai Canghai, who was guarding the warehouse, he was lying on the beam at this time, with his eyes closed, using an infrared scanning eye to observe every move in the warehouse.

As for Bai Man, he leaned over another beam.

He didn't pay much attention to the situation in the warehouse, but paid more attention to Bai Canghai.

To be precise, Bai Man's attention had always been on the strange bow and crossbow in Bai Canghai's hand, and his eyes were full of infinite curiosity and surprise.

Previously, Bai Canghai pulled him out of the ancestral hall together, and spent an afternoon making this thing.

In Bai Canghai's words, this is called the Nine Sons Serial Crossbow, which is a kind of crossbow arrow that can be fired continuously.

This crossbow arrow is not only powerful, but also extremely fast, nine arrows in a row that is really as fast as thunder, if you are targeted by this crossbow within twenty steps, even if it is a beast that moves quickly, I am afraid that you don't want to dodge safely.

As an experienced veteran hunter, Bai Man naturally discovered the various advantages of this crossbow keenly after seeing the power of this crossbow test.

This crossbow may not be of much use when hunting in the mountains and forests, but if it is used for self-defense, it is undoubtedly a very powerful weapon.

You know, as hunters, they often face the counterattack of the beasts in the mountains, which is a very dangerous thing, if they can have this crossbow to defend themselves, it is undoubtedly an extra life, even with this crossbow and those powerful beasts are not afraid of close combat.

In fact, this is also Bai Man's limited knowledge, and he only associates the power of this crossbow with hunting, and if it is discovered by those soldiers who are marching and fighting, it will undoubtedly become a sharp weapon in mortal warfare.

You must know that this nine-son chain crossbow was a brilliant invention in the era of cold weapons in the world before Bai Canghai.

As an archaeologist, Bai Canghai was fortunate to have repaired such an unearthed repeating crossbow, so he was very familiar with the structure of the nine-son serial crossbow, so he drew a sketch and tinkered with Bai Man for an afternoon, and finally made the nine-son serial crossbow.

In Bai Canghai's thoughts, isn't that white-haired mouse fast? Then compare it with this nine-son chain crossbow and see which of the two is faster!

"Xiao Hai, where did you get the blueprint for your crossbow arrow?" After squatting for most of the night, and didn't see the demon rat appear, Bai Man on the side finally couldn't help the curiosity in his heart, and asked in a low voice to Bai Canghai.

Bai Canghai smiled slightly, and said: "This crossbow is obtained from an old immortal, if Uncle Bai Man wants it, after catching that mouse, I will give it to you." ”

"Really?" Bai Man was immediately overjoyed, and then shook his head and said, "Since this crossbow was given by the old immortal, is it a little inappropriate for you to give him to me?"

Bai Canghai said with a smile: "There's nothing wrong with it, since the old fairy passed on to me the production method of this repeater, now it is naturally what I say." ”

"That's right. After Bai Canghai finished speaking, he suddenly added: "This crossbow can only be used by the people in our Baijiazhai in the future, remember not to spread it, this is the advice of the old gods, and it must not be disrespected." ”

"Yes, yes, it won't get out. Bai Man assured with a look of surprise.

Bai Canghai had already saved the plan to leave the production method of this crossbow, which could be regarded as helping the little beggar repay the kindness of the villagers of Baijiazhai to him.

And the reason why he told him not to spread it was because he was afraid that once this repeater spread, it would set off a bloody storm among the mortal people, which was not what Bai Canghai wanted to see.

Thinking that the hunters of Baijiazhai would be able to have such repeaters in the future, Bai Man's heart couldn't help but be a little excited, and just as he wanted to speak, he saw Bai Canghai suddenly make a forbidden gesture to himself.

Bai Man's heart was shocked, and he immediately shifted his attention, lying on the beam, quietly scanning everything in the warehouse.

At this time, Bai Canghai closed his eyes again, and under the infrared scanning light curtain, he finally found a difference.

A dark red light crept in through the hole in the corner......

It was a mouse, with white fur like cotton wool, more than ten times larger than the average mouse.

It is somewhat similar to the groundhog that Bai Canghai has seen before, but this mouse seems to be very shrewd, and the two rat-eyed thieves are spinning, and there is no such simple and cute feeling of a groundhog at all.

It is said that the hole in the corner of the wall is not very big, and with the size of this mouse, it is impossible to get in, but this mouse seems to be able to shrink bones, and it is unbelievable that it can get into this small hole.

Bai Canghai did not act rashly, but continued to observe the big mouse's every move with his scanning eyes.

Seeing this big rat, after entering the warehouse, he first glanced vigilantly, and found that there was no one in the warehouse, so he quietly moved a few steps forward, and then 'swished' out and hid under a stone bench.

After waiting for a while, and seeing that there was no abnormal movement in the warehouse, the white-haired mouse walked out from under the stone bench with confidence and boldness.

After coming to the pile of grain, the white-haired mouse finally relaxed, rolled on the ground excitedly, and then pounced on the pile of grain and ate it.

The two claws kept stuffing things into their mouths, and the mouths kept opening and closing, and after a short while, a small pile of grain was swallowed.

It felt like a squirrel eating, and it gave people an anthropomorphic feeling.

Especially after eating this small pile of food, the rat even hiccuped and showed a satisfied expression.

At this moment, when the white-haired mouse had completely relaxed his vigilance, Bai Canghai finally activated the repeater in his hand, only to hear a soft sound of 'click', and a crossbow arrow was immediately activated and flew towards the head of the white-haired mouse.

Although the white-browed mouse relaxed its vigilance, its reaction was extremely fast.

When he heard the soft sound of 'click', he 'whoosh' turned into a white light, and he dodged the crossbow arrow and drilled frantically into the small hole in the corner of the wall.

Perhaps because he was too full, this time the white-haired mouse drilled out a little slower, and Bai Canghai seized the opportunity and excited the remaining crossbow arrows almost at the same time, and suddenly a crossbow arrow drilled into a small hole and nailed to one of the hind legs of the white-haired mouse.

"Squeak......" The white-haired mouse screamed, and then swooped out of the hole, ignoring the crossbow arrows inserted in the retreat, and flew frantically outside.

But at this moment, two rays of light, one on the left and one on the right, one blue and one purple, almost simultaneously struck at the white-haired mouse......

It was Long Zichuan and Zi Ling, who had been waiting outside for a long time, that made a move, and the blue light emitted by Long Zichuan faintly implied the light and shadow of a cyan sword, and in the purple light emitted by Zi Ling, it was the light and shadow of a small purple flower with nine petals, which looked very magical.

The speed of the two rays of light was no worse than the speed of the white-haired mouse, and the white-haired mouse was injured at this time, so it was immediately blocked by the two rays of light.

At the critical moment, this white-haired mouse was also extraordinary, and he actually showed a desperate posture, his body shook from side to side, and two white-haired mice that were exactly the same as him suddenly appeared on its left and right.

The three white-haired mice divided their things and fled quickly in three different directions without hesitation......
