The proposal to smoke was quickly passed.
No matter how much the two foreign warriors didn't want to fight, with the support of the two local warriors and the insistence on being loyal to this noble person, they had to agree.
Soon, several noble warriors had to go to the surrounding woods to pick up some dry and wet wood like farmers, and then piled the wood at the entrance of the cave.
Zhong Yu, on the other hand, stood there, as graceful as before, as if he always had a noble temperament.
As for helping carry the wood, don't be ridiculous.
How can such a noble person do such menial work
That should be done by these despicable warriors. If these warriors dared to ask Zhong Yu to carry wood, let alone they themselves would be condemned in their hearts.
Even their lord, the head of the Dongping family, would punish them after hearing about it.
This is the abnormal worship of noble blood during the Warring States Period.
The noble blood, the descendants of the gods, are all high and mighty.
Even if they are so poor that they have to ask for food from those big names, their clothes are in tatters, and they have no rights at all.
But the blood flowing in their bodies separated them into two distinct classes from the other civilians from the moment they were born.
The lord of the daimyo ruled the world, and the ministers controlled the people's beliefs. This was the unique cultural custom of the Warring States Period in Japan.
After a while, the entrance to the cave was densely packed with wood that was half as high as the human wall. There were a lot of them.
Placed at the entrance of the cave, it immediately blocked the way out of the cave and semi-sealed the entrance.
"Okay, now that the wood has been picked up, go and look for the vent around the top of the mountain. Once you find it, block it, and then we will catch the turtle in the jar."
Zhong Yu saw the wood picked up in front of him, nodded with satisfaction, and continued to give instructions to the four warriors around him.
When several warriors heard this, they felt helpless and indignant. However, thinking of the huge status gap between them, they could only nod their heads and feebly look for the vent.
Watching the leaving figures of several warriors, Zhong Yu smiled. The reason why he agreed to the warrior leader to let them follow him was because he had expected to do some hard work.
Now these warriors have followed suit, saving them the trouble of doing the work themselves.
"Thankfully I brought them here, otherwise, how could I have been so relaxed and leisurely watching them work!"
Zhong Yu couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
This is the right of being a superior. With just a word, countless people below will risk their lives for you, saving you countless tedious things. This is the reason why Zhong Yu follows the way of the Emperor of Heaven.
There is a huge difference in the treatment enjoyed by a power lord and a lone ranger.
Soon after, the four warriors who went to the top of the mountain to explore quickly came back.
As I said before, this hill is not big, only about 30 meters high, covering an area of one mile around it. With the abilities of four people and a little searching, it was easy to find the vent of the cave.
No, the four people quickly found three vents and quickly blocked them. They also placed several hard stones at the openings, which could be said to be firmly blocked.
Then Zhong Yu waved his finger, and a flame appeared on his fingertips. With a flick, the flame rushed to the top, and with a bang, it quickly burned.
The expressions of several warriors nearby couldn't help but change when they saw it. Regarding the strength of the noble-born man in front of him, his inner evaluation couldn't help but rise more and more.
At the same time, a sense of awe for the strong arose from the bottom of their hearts and was difficult to shake off.
The fire ignited quickly, and the pungent smell of smoke quickly filled the surroundings. The black smoke also spread to all directions, causing everyone to feel uncomfortable and tears streaming down their cheeks.
"What are you waiting for? Act quickly!"
Zhong Yu shouted and ordered to the four warriors who were watching the fire seriously.
Several warriors came to their senses, quickly lifted up the broad banana leaves in their hands, and then moved towards the entrance of the cave. His movements are quick, and he can swing it under the banana leaf tree in one second. It makes people sigh that he is worthy of a trained samurai.
The thick smoke quickly drifted toward the cave entrance under the warrior's business, and the whirring sound filled the entire cave entrance. It followed the corridor at the entrance and filled the entire cave, making the originally dark cave even darker.
However, inside the cave, there was no movement for the time being. It was still as quiet as ever, as if the drinking boy didn't care at all.
However, Zhong Yu didn't pay attention. This boy who drank wine must have lived here. He hadn't moved his nest in decades, which showed that he loved his family.
The boy who swallowed wine still held on to a glimmer of hope, thinking that the smoke could not hurt him and that the cave had a vent.
"But he never thought that the vent was blocked by me!"
Zhong Yu couldn't help but chuckle as he looked at the increasingly swirling black smoke and the entrance of the cave, feeling more and more proud of the drinking boy.
Soon, it was as expected by Zhong Yu.
There was a loud roar from the entrance of the cave, mixed with a shrill scream, and the voice of the drinking boy was getting closer and closer to the entrance of the cave.
It seems that the drinking boy also discovered that the vents were blocked, making the smoke quite painful and wanted to come out.
"Stop slapping you guys and get ready for me. The demon is coming out soon. The fight will start later and I won't be able to take care of you."
Seeing several warriors at the entrance of the cave still fanning themselves vigorously with banana fans, Zhong Yu shouted sharply.
Several warriors suddenly came to their senses at this shout and reacted one after another, now is the time to fight. He immediately threw the banana leaf in his hand to the ground.
A clanging sound.
The four samurai drew out the sharp samurai swords at their waists and pointed the tip of the sword at the entrance of the cave. The samurai stared nervously at the entrance of the cave without blinking.
Finally, a figure slowly walked out of the cave entrance.
The figure was very small, about the size of a six or seven-year-old child, about 1.2 meters tall. Compared to the entrance of the cave, which was more than two meters high, it looked quite thin.
When the child walked out of the cave door and appeared in the sight of the five people, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
I saw that this child was covered with red hair, which was densely covered all over his body. The hair on his face was not long, but there were red circles on his cheeks, and the corners of his mouth were also red and white, making him look like a ghost. .
Moreover, the boy who swallowed wine had green hair, which was three meters long when it was dragged directly to the ground. Ten centimeters long fangs were exposed in his mouth, shining coldly in the sun.
The fingernails on both hands are not human-like in length and are extremely hard. Looking at the metallic sound of the child's nails clashing when shaking hands, it can be seen that the nails on these fingers are sharp and strong.
