After packing up the granaries in this row, Han Cheng, Wu and Shitou went to the other row of granaries and carefully inspected every corner with an oil lamp.
I want to see if this row of granaries has been visited by this group of uninvited guests.
Before I had finished reading half of it, there was already a faint muffled sound, and at the same time there was a pitiful cry of a mouse.
Several people in the room were stunned by the movement.
Isn't this mechanism too clever? Not long after it was set up, the mouse was already caught?
Among the next three people, the one who reacted fastest was not Shi Shi, the youngest, nor Han Cheng, who was young and strong and had laid the mouse trap with his own hands, but Wu, who logically should have been the slowest to react.
After a moment of daze, he was filled with surprise and turned around without saying a word and ran outside. The speed and reaction were so fast that Han Chengdu was amazed and could not match them.
"Haha, good!"
Then Han Cheng followed him with the stone. Before he could turn the corner, he heard the cheerful laughter of Wu Daqiu who was avenged.
I turned around and saw that the two cranes had fallen down, and a mouse was smashed underneath, with its eyeballs bulging out, and its head exposed and its claws scratching helplessly.
"Let you eat, let you eat..."
The witch squatted there, scolding the mouse who wanted to go back and tell the news.
"squeak……"
The mouse, which couldn't bear the attack of the witch's words, suddenly twitched violently. After letting out a miserable cry, blood spilled from the corner of its mouth, and then it twitched twice more and stopped moving...
Han Cheng, who was standing aside, was stunned when he saw this scene, and the corners of his mouth could not help but twitch.
Can such an operation be possible? This is Zhuge Kongming’s possession!
For a moment, the moving melody of 'Shut up, you handsome man, old thief with gray beard... I have never seen such... such a shameless person!' was looping in Han Cheng's mind, and he couldn't stop for a while.
It wasn't until the witch broke the tragically dead rat into several pieces that he didn't want to stop and was about to break it into even more pieces. Only then did Han Cheng get rid of this evil melody and stop the witch's next move.
I remember that when Zeng Guofan led the Hunan Army to fight against the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, he was beaten to the point of jumping into the lake twice.
Later, Hong Xiuquan died of illness and after the fall of Tianjing, Zeng Guofan found Hong Xiuquan's body, chopped it into pieces, stuffed it into a cannon barrel, and blasted it out. Only then could he relieve his hatred.
Although the rats ate the food in the tribe and made the witches angry, they had not yet reached the point where they needed to be cut into pieces...
While the Qingque tribe was working hard for spring plowing, and several high-ranking officials in the tribe were fighting with mice to protect the food, the ice and snow in the north finally melted completely.
Many tribes who had suffered from the severe cold were looking at the not-so-high sun with joyful eyes.
However, not all tribes will be happy. A tribe that is not too far away from the Black Stone Tribe will not be happy at this time.
It wasn't that they were patronized by the Blackstone Tribe, but that they suddenly discovered that the tribe that was very close to their tribe and often had 'friendly interactions' with their tribe had completely disappeared after this winter.
At first, the people of the Grass Tribe thought that the people of this tribe died of hunger and cold in this cold winter due to lack of food.
However, the cave was empty, with no human bones or corpses, which quickly overturned their speculation.
“¥%#…”
The people of the grass tribe told their leader his guess.
His guess was that due to lack of food, the neighboring tribe moved away with its people. Only in this way can it explain what happened in the cave.
After thinking for a while, the leader of the Grass Tribe shook his head and denied the idea.
No tribe would choose to migrate in the middle of winter, especially those lacking food.
Because such behavior will make them die faster who are already short of food.
Unlike the Qingque Tribe and many other tribes, the leader of the Grass Tribe is not a man, but a woman.
However, her tall frame and majestic body do not look much different from those of men.
There doesn't seem to be much difference in appearance, but there is still a fundamental difference, that is, compared to ordinary men, as the female leader, she has a carefulness unique to women.
After denying the speculation of the man in the tribe, the female leader of the Grass Tribe wandered around the cave that seemed empty and deserted, searching bit by bit to find some clues first.
The collective disappearance of a tribe next to them, no matter what the reason, is not a good thing for them.
It is very important for the grass tribe to understand the reason.
Therefore, even if the leader of the Grass Tribe does not have good relations with the leader of this tribe, he will definitely patrol carefully.
“#¥5!”
After a careful search, she finally made a new discovery. She found several broken wooden sticks in an inconspicuous place in the cave.
These wooden sticks are polished to be a little smooth, and some of the sticks are sharp at one end. These are the weapons of some people in this tribe.
At this time, these weapons were broken, and some weapons still had some dark red spots on them.
This is the blood that was spilled and dried on it!
Something bad happened to this tribe!
It is very likely that they were broken into the cave during the cold season, killed or driven away!
Panic spread among the people in the Grass Tribe. Many of those who had not yet fully recovered from the cold winter began to tremble again.
Many people's eyes fell on the female leader, waiting for the leader to give them an idea. However, the leader of the Grass Tribe kept his eyes on the broken stick in his hand.
The woman's carefulness allowed her to discover the difference in this stick.
The fractures of these sticks used as weapons are different from those usually seen, they are extremely smooth!
The leader of the Grass Tribe, who once cut off some small branches with a stone ax in the tribe, could remember how these smooth cuts came about.
But it was precisely because she understood what happened to these flat fractures that she became more confused than the average tribesman!
Because even if the strongest person in their tribe holds the sharpest stone ax and cuts it down with all his strength, it is impossible to cut off such a thick wooden stick in one go!
This situation means that the enemies who come to attack this tribe possess an extremely sharp weapon!
The kind that can easily cut through wooden weapons!
“¥%……”
After the leader of the Grass Tribe was confused for a long time, he suddenly made a voice and led the people out of the cave in another direction.
Holding the severed weapon in her hand, she wanted to tell the nearby tribes that a powerful and evil tribe had appeared around her...
