"Kobold?"
Yi Tianxing frowned slightly. After the kobold tribe moved over, they were all sent to mine nearby mineral veins. The mining efficiency was greatly increased compared to the original. They were indeed little experts in mining. Moreover, mining can provide food and drink, and the kobolds are also very satisfied. They work harder to dig the veins. With the Green Emperor suppressing them, they do not dare to show any hostility.
It has been gradually tamed, and after a few generations, it will be completely tamed.
Using kobolds to deal with rats is indeed a good idea.
But whether it will work or not is still unknown.
The number of rats is simply too great.
"You can give it a try. Although dogs are not the natural enemies of rats, they still have a certain deterrent effect on the rats. They can bring some threats to the rats." Huang Chengyan also agreed. I think I can give it a try.
"My lord, if you want to perfectly solve these rat infestations, there is actually a once and for all solution."
Jia Xu rolled his eyes, and a faint smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"any solution?"
Yi Tianxing was immediately overjoyed and asked curiously.
He still has great trust in Jia Xu's ability. Now that there is a way, there must be a certain degree of certainty.
Naturally, I am looking forward to it.
"My lord, come here."
Jia Xu said with a chuckle.
Then he quickly spoke his plan in Yi Tianxing's ear. After hearing this, Yi Tianxing's eyes became brighter and brighter, showing a hint of joy, and he nodded from time to time, understanding.
After listening, Yi Tianxing waved his hand and said without hesitation: "Notify me, and immediately start building scarecrows with various straws and straws. The more the better. Once you've built them, place them in the rice field for me." "The scarecrow can scare away insects and birds, but it may not scare away mice."
This sentence was delivered directly without any concealment.
To be heard by all.
But it made many people frown.
There was a trace of suspicion in his eyes as he looked at Yi Tianxing.
Can you scare away rats with a scarecrow? This is not an ordinary rat, but a ferocious rat. It is a pack of rats. How can a lifeless scarecrow deceive a pack of rats? Not to mention, behind the pack of rats, it is possible There is also a terrifying mastermind behind the scenes.
The intelligence is no worse than that of humans, even more cunning. Under such circumstances, how could he be deceived
This kind of order is a bit too childish.
Even ordinary people feel a little unreliable.
Is this an order from the city lord
Many people feel a little weird in their hearts. This is obviously very different from the previous city lords.
"Everyone, hurry up and carry out the order. The scarecrows must be strong and durable. The more scarecrows, the better. The scarecrows must be equipped with various weapons, including insect nets, buckets, bamboo poles, long knives, three-pronged forks, etc. It must be You need to dress very similar to someone else, the more similar you are, the better.”
Jia Xu also smiled, clapped his hands, and said loudly.
"Okay, if the city lord said that, it must make sense. Don't think too much, we just do it. It's not difficult to build a scarecrow anyway. Maybe it will be useful."
"Yes, there is no other way now. It's a good time to make a scarecrow and pass the time."
A group of common people heard this, and then suppressed the suspicion in their hearts, and prepared to follow the order and start making preparations.
To build a scarecrow, the materials are all over the city. There are countless kinds of weeds and straw, and there is an endless supply of local materials. Inexhaustible and inexhaustible.
"What are the lord and the military advisor planning? What does it have to do with the scarecrow?"
Huang Chengyan frowned slightly and thought to himself. Some people don't understand the deep meaning contained in this.
"Are these human beings really so stupid? They want to use a scarecrow to scare the insidious guy Rat Eclipse. If they can succeed, it will be damned. However, if Rat Eclipse is scared, then there will be a joke in the future. Why do I feel like there’s a conspiracy in this?”
In the crowd, a man murmured secretly.
The look in his eyes looked extremely playful.
"It's fun, interesting. This news will definitely not be hidden from Rat Eclipse. I'm going to see his expression. It must be very interesting."
There was strong interest in his voice.
Without any further hesitation, he turned around and disappeared.
It is not difficult to build a scarecrow. Soon, lifelike scarecrows began to appear in the rice fields. It looked like a large number of human beings were working and cultivating.
"What, is this Yi Tianxing out of his mind? He actually thinks that putting up some scarecrows can scare me and disperse my army of rats. He is so naive. Who does he think I am, Rat Eclipse?" , is this humiliating me? Damn it, it’s really hateful.”
It is indeed easy for Rat Eclipse to get the previous news.
Seeing this, even my nose was so angry that I was so angry. This is simply treating him as a fool. Do you really think he is easy to bully? Is he made of clay? A few scarecrows can stop him.
If he really did nothing, he felt that his future reputation among the foreign races would be completely wiped out and turned into a joke.
"Is this a conspiracy against me, specifically to lure me out? This is some kind of provoking method, just to anger me and finally lure me out." However, another thought immediately emerged in Rat Eclipse.
This method is really inferior, so inferior that people have to doubt it.
But even if he knew it was a trick, he had to fall for it, otherwise he would lose his face. Although Rat Eclipse likes to use intrigues and uses unscrupulous means, he still pays great attention to face. If word got out in the future that he was so frightened that he dared not go out because of some scarecrows, he would really be embarrassed to see others. It will become a complete joke.
"What a cruel method. However, it's not that easy for me to be fooled, and I don't believe that some scarecrows can stop me. This is simply the biggest joke in the world."
Rat Eclipse said with disdain.
His eyes looked extremely cold.
No matter what happened, this was a challenge, and it was a challenge that forced him to go.
Time passed quietly.
A large amount of manpower was mobilized, and Tiangong Pavilion also worked together to weave a large number of weeds into scarecrows of various kinds. Some craftsmen even ingeniously separated the scarecrows into male and female. As if it were a work of art. Lifelike. The craftsmanship can be described as exquisite to the extreme. It's amazing.
In just one morning, the number of scarecrows woven has reached an astonishing number.
In the city lord's mansion, the shadow under Yi Tianxing disappeared strangely in a trance.
Near Xuanhuang City.
In a valley.
The golden wheat fields are emitting dazzling light, and a large number of golden wheat are growing vigorously, it seems.
Scarecrows are working hard in the wheat fields, weeding, watering, and driving away birds and beasts. Everything is so natural and harmonious. A large number of scarecrows with clear division of labor. Doing your own thing very naturally.
A tall golden scarecrow is constantly making its rounds. A pair of golden eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, and he wore a golden straw hat on his head.
brush! !
Suddenly, all I saw was a figure emerging from the shadow of a big tree. Looking carefully, it looked like it was Yi Tianxing.
However, there was a faint evil aura about him.
This is the shadow body.
"Human, do you want to come and steal food?"
The golden scarecrow king looked at Yi Tianxing coldly, and said something in his mouth, as if he had wisdom that was no less than human beings.
"No, dear Scarecrow Chief, I am not here to steal food, nor will I do anything to harm your Scarecrow clan. There are rats stealing my food. I pity the people in my city who have worked so hard to grow the food and vegetables. Everything was destroyed and destroyed by those rats, and the people's hard work was wasted. Countless sweat was wasted, and countless grains were wasted. I want to ask the clan leader to protect the food for my Xuanhuang City."
Yi Tianxing opened his mouth and spat out a sentence.
When he talked about the food being wasted, his tone was extremely sad and desolate. The grief and anger are unbearable.
"What, there are food thieves who steal food, ruin the farmland, and destroy the food. This is actually abominable."
"Every food thief will be beaten to death. Such a vicious food thief."
"Although they are not stealing food from us, it is wrong to destroy crops and waste food."
When the scarecrows around heard this, they all looked angry. Food, in their hearts, is the most sacred and inviolable treasure. To be ruined by others, even if it is not on their own territory, they still feel a strong anger, anger born from the nature in their blood.
Food thieves are really abominable.
"Humans, although we, the scarecrows, are very angry when you encounter food thieves, there are many food thieves. We must protect the wheat fields. We cannot leave. Protecting the wheat fields is our mission. If we leave here, there will be no one to protect the wheat fields. This is absolutely not true. Can."
When the Scarecrow Patriarch heard this, he was very angry, but still shook his head in refusal.
"If you don't go, then the food in our Xuanhuang City will be ruined by food thieves. Countless people will be hungry and have nothing to eat. There are a lot of rat thieves. I'm afraid we won't be able to grow food in the future."
Yi Tianxing said sadly again.
"Clan leader, we must fight the food thieves to the end. We must not allow such rampant food thieves."
a scarecrow shouted.
"We're going to take down the food thieves."
"Protecting food is our bounden duty."
shouted the crowd of scarecrows.
"Okay, then we will create more brothers and protect the rice fields together."
The golden scarecrow leader pondered for a moment, but finally couldn't resist the temptation to defeat the food thief. After they guard the rice fields and defeat the food thieves, they will receive gifts from nature, and their strength will become stronger as a result. The more food thieves they defeat, the happier they will be. You can get a kind of implicit belief to be integrated into the body, strengthening the core and even the soul.
This is the way of protection, this is the way of faith.
When they heard that there were a large number of food thieves, they felt that this was an opportunity to become stronger.
