Mao Qi underestimated his influence and the stubbornness of this group of people. Looking at the people who ignored him, Mao Qiyou felt a little funny. "Have they forgotten me as a slave?"
"Village Fang, I, I want to stay and give it a try..." After a struggle in his mind, Tuba was ready to choose to stay, but he was afraid that Cunfang would not agree, so he had to ask weakly.
"Stay, Tubal, why are you staying?" The village guard did not object directly, but questioned with an objectionable tone.
"Of course you will stay and watch over me, this slave." Mao Qi took over the words.
"That's right! I'll stay and keep an eye on him." Tuba felt that this reason was reliable and he hurriedly said.
"Then you can stay, be careful not to be eaten by tigers and leopards." The village guard agreed to Tuba staying, but his extra words made several others who were also planning to stay give up their minds.
Just when Tuba was about to turn around with an anxious mood, the village guard came over again and whispered: "Tuba, be careful, the village can't feed itself. If it doesn't work, let this slave go."
Tuba's heart suddenly warmed up at the village guard's instructions. He didn't know how to answer, so he just nodded.
"Little man, the reason why I chose to stay is not because I believe you, but because I can't explain to my wife and children when I go back empty-handed." After everyone left, Tuba said to Mao Qi.
"Don't worry, I won't let you go back empty-handed. By the way, my name is Mao Qi, not Little Man." Mao Qi smiled slightly and cheered Tuba up.
"Okay, Mao Qi, tell me your plan quickly. I don't think you want to become food for tigers and leopards." After hearing what Mao Qi said, Tuba became impatient.
"Don't be anxious, please tell me about the situation of the monsters here first." Mao Qi found a stone and sat down, and asked Tuba calmly.
"Are you okay? Is it useful to ask these questions?" Tuba became impatient.
"Know yourself and your enemy and you will be able to fight a hundred battles. As long as you listen to me, I guarantee you will gain something." Mao Qi said.
"I don't understand, but I see that you are quite knowledgeable, so I will believe you once. As the village defense said, the monsters here are not ordinary, they are cruel and extremely cunning. We have fought against them head-on before, and the losses were not high.
Damn it, they are even more difficult to deal with than those demons. Later, we set traps on the roads they must pass, but in the end we didn’t even get a single hair." Tuba said in a self-centered manner, not caring whether he was against Mao Qi or not.
It's useful, but seeing how difficult it is for Mao Qi to listen to so many people, Tu Ba is quite confident.
"Tuba, where is their only path?" Mao Qi picked a question he wanted to know and continued to ask.
"Right there, these monsters always follow that path to drink water." Tuba said, pointing to the winding and rugged path between the rocks not far away.
Following the direction pointed by Tuba, Mao Qi vaguely saw a faint trail. The end of the trail seemed to be a low-lying land. According to common sense, it was indeed feasible to set traps on the trail, but the opponent they ignored, the second one.
The level monster beast has begun to take on spiritual form, and ordinary traps are of no use at all. However, for a qualified hunter of the Chinese tribe, it is not impossible even without using the realm energy.
"The location is really good. Come on, let's go take a look." Mao Qi nodded.
"It has been abandoned for a long time. You'd better think of a solution quickly. There is no guarantee of safety here overnight." Tu Bagen didn't know what Mao Qi was thinking, so he could only say anxiously.
"You don't believe me, or you still don't have the guts." Mao Qi walked straight towards the trap and said in a confident tone.
"If my family hadn't run out of food, I wouldn't have stayed." Tuba had no intention of following, but just stood there and whispered.
"It's not too late to go back now." Mao Qi did not continue to persuade Tuba, nor did he stop.
Mao Qi's attitude and tone made Tu Ba feel unhappy. He stood there angrily, not knowing how to choose.
"Since you don't want to go back, just trust me. If you're a man, just do it. Hesitation is no different from a woman." Just when Tuba was hesitant, Mao Qi's voice came from not far away.
"Damn it, I'm risking my life." Tuba raised his head and looked at the thin but confident figure not far away. He seemed to be infected at this moment. He glanced at Mao Qi and cursed fiercely in a low voice. I just didn't know.
Are you cursing Mao Qi, or are you cursing the world?
"By the way, what's your name? I forgot it." Tuba quickly caught up with Mao Qi and asked, touching the back of his head.
"Maoqi."
"Maoqi, can you tell me your plan so that I can feel confident?" Maoqi's behavior and tone always make Tubal feel believable unconsciously.
"If the trap you set up still works, I'm going to use myself as bait." Mao Qi said simply and clearly.
"As long as you can catch prey, let me be the bait." Mao Qi's words shocked the tall Tuba. Before this, he had never thought about how to use himself as bait to hunt. I don't know where it came from.
His courage made Tubal feel like a real man.
"This is like a man. However, we may really have to spend the night here tonight." Mao Qi pointed at the trap and thought for a moment.
"Do we really want to spend the night here?" Tuba asked reluctantly, looking at the trap covered with wire mesh.
"Yes. Take the time to work and try to complete the trap before dark." Mao Qi nodded.
"We have no tools..." Tubal muttered in embarrassment.
"Tuba, go and collect all the discarded tools." Mao Qi did not answer directly, but arranged directly.
"These are all damaged tools, what use can they be..." Tuba muttered as he began to collect the tools left behind when setting traps.
Mao Qi carefully observed the layout of the trap and made an evaluation of the trap.
"To be honest, the setting of this trap is really grand. Not only is it deep enough, but it is also large enough. Just clean up the surrounding area of the trap and then dig a small hole at the bottom. It will be safe tonight." Mao Qi thought in his heart.
Plan Road.
"Why don't you take action?" Just as Mao Qi was thinking, Tuba had completed the task and was waiting for Mao Qi's arrangements with his hands on his waist.
Mao Qi looked back and saw that there were a lot of discarded tools piled up around him. Tuba's work efficiency was actually very fast.
After Mao Qi selected some usable tools, he threw the rest into the trap, and then said to Tuba: "Let's go, we will go down too. But next, we have to work hard for you."
Tuba hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
Mao Qi found a few pieces of strong rope locks, then found one and tied one end to a big rock, then followed the rope to the bottom of the trap. Tu Ba followed.
Under the command of Mao Qi, the two men cleaned up the surrounding area of the trap and dug two small deep holes on the bottom wall to avoid the attacks of monsters at night; most importantly, they dug another hole at the bottom of the hole.
Make a deep and narrow trap, and then use the remaining tools and some gravel to build a ladder with a void at the bottom. If the monster wants to come down, it has two options, one is to jump down directly, and the other is to come down from the ladder; but if it wants to come down,
To go up, you have to jump out from the steps. However, as long as the monster steps on the steps, it will fall into the trap within the trap.
After Mao Qi and Tu Ba finished setting up the trap, it was almost dusk, and their stomachs were already growling with hunger.
Mao Qi lit a fire, and the two of them sat around the fire and waited for nightfall.
"Maoqi, if monsters can get into the cave where we are hiding, what should we do?" Tuba started to worry as soon as he was free.
"Just take this and poke it directly into the eyes of the monster." Mao Qi handed a relatively complete sharp-horned hoe to Tu Ba Dao.
"As long as they dare to come, I guarantee that they will never come back." Tuba held the sharp-horned hoe in his hand and said confidently.
"Maoqi, do you think those monsters will not dare to come when they hear the noise?" Tuba continued to ask, bored.
"Don't you feel that they are already here, right behind you?" Mao Qi said easily, but his attention was no longer on the conversation.
"You're kidding! This..." Tuba said with a smile, and suddenly stopped, as if he felt the cold eyes behind him, and a layer of cold sweat broke out all over his body.
"Don't look back!" Mao Qi lowered his voice and reminded.
"Maoqi, do you think they will pounce suddenly?" Tuba said nervously.
"Stay steady, I won't know it yet. Observing prey is the most basic skill of every hunter, and monsters are no exception." Mao Qi explained softly.
Tuba took a deep breath and tried his best to control his nervousness, but the sweat all over his body had already wet his back, and his nervousness was not under control. It kept swelling, and his tormented heart might collapse at any time.
Mao Qize fiddled with the fire as if nothing had happened, his calm face making it impossible for Tuba to guess his thoughts.
"Come on, you bastards!" Tubal suddenly stood up, turned around, and shouted hysterically toward the darkness.
"Calm down, it's gone a long time ago." Mao Qi had already anticipated Tuba's rampage and said calmly.
"Then why didn't you tell me earlier?" Tuba yelled out of control.
"I thought you weren't afraid." Mao Qi shrugged, regretting his wrong guess.
"I, don't you know, the things that can't be seen on the back are the most terrifying! It's not behind you, so of course you won't be afraid." Tuba found a step for himself and hesitated for a long time to explain.
"Well, you are right. But next time something like this happens, your first reaction is to hide somewhere!" Mao Qi nodded with a serious expression, then pointed to the hole in the wall and said.
Tuba looked at the hole in the wall without saying anything, and his mood slowly calmed down.
Mao Qi sat quietly by the fire and entered a state of cultivation. The sky turned completely dark, and the screams of monsters echoed in the valley, making people's hair stand on end.
"Mao Qi, I'm a little sleepy. Let's rest for a while. You stay here and I'll change your shift later." The inner tension was intensified by the screams of the monsters, and the feeling of fear suddenly increased sharply. Holding the hungry baby in his arms
With his stomach growling, Tuba stared intently at the trap mouth, feeling as if time had stopped.??
