Rebirth 78: Hunting for Treasure in the Mountains, Spoiling My Wife and Daughter to the Heavens

"The old worm climbed the lampstand to steal oil, and couldn't get down."

Squeak, Grandma

Grandma refused to come.

"Rolling down, 'rolling down'."

In front of the watermelon-sized mouse hole, Zheng Yu was muttering a nursery rhyme.

"You're good at this again! Why don't you try to scoop it out?"

Lu Weiguo was annoyed by the dismissal, mainly because this little girl wouldn't stop, singing over and over again.

"No, I'm scared, but I'm not scared because my brother-in-law is here."

After Zheng Yu finished speaking, he jumped onto Lu Weiguo's back.

"Water! Be careful, the water's spilled!!"

"Oh, why are you being so fierce? But you look really good when you're being fierce."

Pfft~!

Lu Weiguo almost spat out his drink.

That little girl is a real devil.

It's not as good as it was at the beginning.

"Let's go, let's circle around here a couple of times. This thing is similar to a rabbit. A cunning rabbit has three burrows, and this thing should also have several entrances."

After a while.

Sure enough, two holes of similar size were found nearby.

There was bamboo readily available.

They tied bamboo strips and stones together, completely sealing off the two caves.

Actually, he was thinking of just sealing the hole shut.

But this big guy doesn't seem afraid of people and is actually quite smart. If you really piss it off, it might kill you.

I'm really afraid it'll take revenge on us in the middle of the night.

"Let's bring over some freshly boiled water; that should be enough."

When it comes to serious matters, Zheng Yu's execution ability is quite good.

Playing is playing, and making a fuss is making a fuss.

After all, it was she who insisted on catching the mouse.

Soon, a total of sixteen bamboo tubes were brought over.

Lu Weiguo held a knife in his left hand and a bamboo strip in his right, and gestured towards the cave entrance with his mouth.

"Brother-in-law, I really don't dare. You do it, I'll cheer you on."

Zheng Yu saw Lu Weiguo telling her to pour water into the cave.

They ran incredibly fast.

Seeing that she was genuinely scared, Lu Weiguo stopped teasing her.

I poured all the hot water in at once!

No one knows how deep or how big that cave is.

So much hot water was poured in, and it all flowed into the hole.

After a while.

Hot air billowed out of the cave entrance, carrying a muddy smell and a foul, burnt odor.

The void was silent for a moment.

then.

A chilling squeaking sound came from under the hole, so dense and distinct that it was clear that it couldn't have been produced by a single mouse.

The sound was so shrill that Zheng Yu, who was not far away, covered his ears.

"Damn! This is a rat's nest! Do you guys have that many rats here?!"

Lu Weiguo was stunned for a moment, and instinctively took a step back.

Then I wanted to remind Zheng Lin to quickly find a high place to stay.

can.

It's too late to give it to them.

"Whoosh whoosh~"

A large number of rats crawled out of the hole.

Those rats were all bigger than the palm-sized rats in Northeast China!

There were even a few mice that were about the size of kittens.

It wasn't afraid of people when it crawled out, and climbed straight onto Lu Weiguo and Zheng Yu!

Following the trouser leg, down to the instep.

They were desperately trying to squeeze inside.

Lu Weiguo always wears leg wraps when he goes hunting.

Although he didn't bring as much this time, he used all the remaining fabric that Yuan Mengjie had.

The mouse only crawled outside his trouser leg, and he easily shook it off.

He frantically used a bamboo pole to hit the rats on the ground.

Zheng Yu, however, was not so lucky.

She was afraid of mice.

Seeing so many again, my legs went weak with fear.

The little mouse crawled up her trouser leg, frantically flailing its paws, yelling, "Aaaaaaah!!!"

They shouted loudly.

They spin around in a very uncoordinated manner.

"Help!! Brother-in-law, save me!"

Zheng Yu's voice changed tone, sounding like a slaughtered pig.

At this moment, Li Xiulian and the others who were studying on the other side finally heard the noise.

"What's wrong with you guys?!"

They rushed over here, asking loudly.

"Rat hole!!! It's full of rats!! You guys keep those torches for protection! Don't come any closer!!"

Compared to Zheng Yu, Lu Weiguo cared more about his wife and children.

After giving that reminder, he tossed it toward Zheng Yu.

At that moment, a small mouse had already crawled onto Zheng Yu's hand.

*Smack!*

The bamboo strip was pulled up steadily.

Then Lu Weiguo picked up Zheng Yu with one hand and tucked her under his arm.

Spin rapidly in place.

They only stopped when all the mice had been thrown out.

"Grab me!! Wrap your legs around my waist."

Lu Weiguo was carried on Zheng Yu's back like a little chick.

Then he started whipping the rats wildly.

Lu Weiguo was strong and accurate in his strikes.

Any rat that gets hit by it will have its blood mixed with white, black, and red, and it will basically be completely mangled.

But it seems like there's no end to getting rid of these mice.

No matter how many rats crawl to your feet you kill, more will rush over to take their place.

A full ten minutes passed.

Lu Weiguo, his lower body covered in blood and filth, panted heavily as he began to finish off the rats that were still alive.

At this moment, it comes into view.

The place was covered with the corpses of rats.

Zheng Lin, who was on his back, was already terrified.

His gaze was fixed, and he didn't even wipe the drool dripping from his mouth.

All she knew was to cling tightly to Lu Weiguo with both her hands and feet.

They just wouldn't let go.

"You're about to strangle me. Give me a little something; the biggest rat hasn't come out yet. Let me put you down first."

"Ah!! No, no, brother-in-law, I was wrong, I was really wrong, please don't put me down."

Zheng Yu thought Lu Weiguo disliked her and wanted to punish her, so she apologized desperately.

But Lu Weiguo treated her like a child.

How could I be really angry?

"It's nothing. I'm just worried that if the rat comes out, it might make a lot of noise. How about this, I'll take you to a clean place."

Fortunately, Li Xiulian arrived with the other four people at that moment.

Each person carried two torches.

Before we even got this far, we could smell a strong, fishy stench.

"Defend the country, defend the country!"

"Zheng Yu!!"

"It's okay, we're fine. Please don't come any closer, I'm afraid there might be germs."

Lu Weiguo also walked towards the sound, but his eyes remained fixed on the rat hole.

He was about three meters away from Li Xiulian.

Lu Weiguo put Zheng Yu down.

"There's another rat hole over there, teeming with rats. There should only be one big rat left now. I'll kill it and come over."

Don't touch her. We'll go take a bath in the stream over there later to wash off the blood and grime.

Xiulian handed me a few torches.

Even rats in Northeast China carry bacteria.

He felt that there should be no difference between the north and south of this thing.

Regardless of the circumstances, the simplest emergency measures should be taken.

Li Xiulian mustered her courage and walked over in small steps.

I stood on tiptoe to look over there, and then I screamed in fright at the sight of a huge swarm of dead rats.

Perhaps the sound was too shrill.

At the entrance to the rat hole over there, a pair of angry red eyes gleamed.

It slowly came into view.

Mice typically have gray eyes.

But its eyes were completely bloodshot!

It was filled with human anger and hatred!
