"Rat plague?"

Shen Xisheng was stunned for a moment when he heard what Uncle Yang said, then scratched his head and asked with some confusion:

"Why is there a rat plague? We have hardly seen rats in our village since Wu Mi came here. Where did so many rats come from?"

Since he adopted Wumi, all the other cats in the village have almost lost their jobs, and whenever mice appear, they basically become Wumi's snacks.

So it’s no wonder that Shen Xisheng couldn’t understand that the village where Wu Mi was in charge was actually plagued by a rat plague. Where did this out-of-town rat come from without eyes?

"Oh, this rat plague is no ordinary rat!"

Uncle Yang quickly waved his hand and then told Shen Xisheng:

"They are all bamboo rats, and each one is about the same size!"

He gestured to Shen Xisheng twice with both hands. If he wasn't exaggerating, this bamboo rat could almost catch up with a small pot.

Shen Xisheng's eyes suddenly widened:

"It's such a big one, but it's still a group of bamboo rats. No one was killed in the village, right?"

"That's not true. These bamboo rats are also very strange."

Uncle Yang's expression started to look weird:

"This group of bamboo rats rushed into the village in a big way and went straight to everyone's kitchen. They robbed all the rice, flour and other grains, but left other things untouched.

Oh, some things made of bamboo were still eaten by them. We took our cats and tried to do it, but we didn't hit them yet."

When he mentioned that he had never beaten a bamboo rat, Uncle Yang couldn't help but turn his head to the side, as if he couldn't bear the great shame.

"These guys seem to be intelligent. They don't even bite people or cats, but they are so energetic that they can jump up and knock people down with one kick!"

"Oh?"

After hearing Uncle Yang's description, Shen Xisheng's expression changed and he said seriously:

"Have you gotten to this point? It seems that those guys are no longer ordinary bamboo rats. They must hit hard!"

"Xiao Shen, see if you can think of a way to cure it. Although there are no fatalities in the village, they have robbed all the staple food. It is still a disaster."

Uncle Yang looked at Shen Xisheng with great expectation. This young man was adopted by the villagers and now he can often do things that others cannot do. He is the hope of the whole village.

"Don't worry, Uncle Yang, I'll find a way to solve this matter. Since the rats have spirits, they probably won't come to the village to steal food again in a short time.

Please help share these game meats with everyone. Although it cannot completely solve the ration problem, it can still be dealt with for the time being."

Shen Xisheng handed over the prey that he and Wu Mi had brought to Uncle Yang, who quickly thanked him after taking it:

"Ouch, thank you so much Xiao Shen this time. When the matter is resolved, I will let everyone prepare a good meal for you."

"Hey, what are you talking about? I have been eating in our house all the time, so I should help out.

I'll go back to my house first to check on the situation. Uncle Yang, please share the meat with everyone."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Uncle Yang carried the prey and rushed to each house to share the meat, while Shen Xisheng returned to his hut with Wu Mi.

"Good guy, these bamboo rats came into the house, stole the food, and ran away, and they even knew how to close the door."

Shen Xisheng opened the door and briefly checked the situation inside the house. He found that except for his rice noodles which had been swept away, everything else was intact.

There are a bunch of bamboo rat paw prints left on the ground. Although there are many, they are not messy at all. It seems that they came prepared.

This group of bamboo rats not only have clear action goals, but are also very disciplined, which fully proves that the other party is by no means an idle person.

Wu Mi, who had been silent for a long time beside Shen Xisheng, saw no one around and finally spoke to Shen Xisheng:

"These bamboo rats are so arrogant! They even dare to steal their master's food!"

Wu Mi was surprisingly angry at the moment. She didn't even dare to act wildly against Shen Xisheng, but there was someone else who acted so wantonly.

In Wu Mi's opinion, if there is a guy who can mess around with Shen Xisheng at will, it can only be him!

This bunch of bamboo rats actually took a step ahead of me, which is really treasonous. I must get the situation back, in every aspect.

Shen Xisheng didn't know the wonderful thoughts in Maomao's mind. His reaction to the food being robbed was not excited at all, but rather curious:

"This group of bamboo rats must have activated their spiritual intelligence and not run away, but I don't know whether it is a few of them or the entire group of rats that have activated their spiritual intelligence."

He prefers the former. If the entire rat group turns on their spiritual intelligence, they will be a small-scale demon clan.

He usually just hangs around here when he has nothing to do. There is no way these guys could collectively turn into monsters under his nose.

So the actual situation should be that a few of the leading bamboo rats accidentally opened their spiritual wisdom, and then led the entire rat group to start causing trouble.

As the saying goes, to capture the thief first, capture the king. As long as you take care of the leader of the bamboo rats, you won't have to worry about the rest of the rats. You can just add bamboo to the pot and stew.

"It doesn't matter how many of them have activated their smart cats, Wumi has become more powerful now, they must be beaten, cats!"

Wumi stood up with high spirits, and started to perform Meow Meow Boxing again. After the advancement, it expanded a lot.

"Okay, let Umi take care of these rats."

Shen Xisheng clapped his hands, highly affirming Wumi's willingness to fight, and regarded it as a practice for the opponent.

He still has great confidence in Wumi. Even if this bamboo rat develops spiritual wisdom and becomes a demon, it will only have unqualified strength at most. Maomao can definitely deal with the opponent.

But there is a prerequisite for all this, that is, you have to find the rats first.

Naturally, Shen Xisheng would not use the village as bait for the rats to take the bait. It would not be appropriate to use someone else's granary to do this.

You have to set traps in other places according to some habits of bamboo rats, and then let Wumi kill the rats after they take the bait.

Shen Xisheng began to read the information about bamboo rats in his mind, and it didn't take long for him to have an idea in his mind.

I will prepare some good food for the rats in the next few days, and then send them on their way.

......

Two days later.

At night, at the foot of the mountain.

Wu Mi had transformed into a little boy at this time, squatting aside and watching Shen Xisheng place a lot of things in his hands on the ground.

"Master, are you sure you can attract those bad bamboo rats here?"

His big eyes were staring straight at the things on the ground, such as sugar cane, thatch roots, corn and other things he didn't eat much.

Shen Xisheng laid these things on the road so blatantly, Wu Mi felt that it was not very reliable to lure the bamboo rats out in this way.

"Do you understand the simplest way? To deal with guys who have just opened their spiritual intelligence, the simpler the routine, the more practical it is."

Shen Xisheng arranged all the baits in his hands and patted the dust on his hands, then said to Wu Mi:

"And I've done some tricks on these things. The smell is much stronger than ordinary crops. You just have to wait to go up and beat them."

He is still very confident in his simple and unpretentious strategy. Night is when bamboo rats are most active. With the creature's most primitive appetite, he is not afraid that the other party will not take the bait!

Shen Xisheng jumped directly to the tallest tree nearby, and then waved to Wu Mi:

"Come on, let's hide on the edge first."

"Oh."

Wu Mi nodded, and then quickly rushed to the tree. The large branches were lush and leafy, and the night covered the two of them well.
Chapter completed!
