Brother Lei's behavior made me a little unhappy, and I said angrily: "His legs are injured, so it's normal that he can't run fast. If you're in a hurry, just run back first. We'll run slowly with him here." "
Zhao Hu also dismissed Brother Lei: "That is, whether he and Er Zhu are your brothers or not, I feel like you don't care about their life or death at all. I think you are just using them to make them work for you stupidly."
Brother Lei also pretended to be very angry and said: "What are you talking nonsense? Why don't I care about their life or death? Isn't it for his own good that I ask him to run faster? Besides, it wasn't me who killed Er Zhu, it was you who killed him. He collapsed."
What made me a little speechless was that the tall man still spoke for Brother Lei at this time, saying that Brother Lei was quite loyal and cared about their brothers.
I thought to myself that I was also a bitch, so why did I try to help him speak up? He deserved to be in this situation. He would have to count the money after being sold by Brother Lei.
After we ran for a while, we heard a rustling noise slowly behind us. Because there were many grasses and woods, we couldn't find anything every time we shined a flashlight over it. The noise became louder and louder as we got behind, and There was a noise in more than one direction.
I said there was probably more than one rat chasing us, maybe a whole bunch of them.
When we reached a relatively open section of the road, there was no place for these mice to hide. When we shined a flashlight back, we could see a large group of black people, some big and some small.
The largest one was probably as big as an adult wild boar. The flesh on its body swayed back and forth when it ran, and its eyes looked bright and sinister, flashing back and forth in the dark. This scene made me feel shocked and panicked.
Zhao Hu said that it would be great if he had an automatic rifle. He could shoot them all out. Otherwise, if we fired later, we would probably be bitten to death by these rats before we could fill up the gunpowder and iron sand.
I say never shoot unless absolutely necessary. Guns are our talismans. As long as we hold them in our hands, they will be a deterrent.
The taller man probably felt the pain as he had numbed it, and could no longer feel the pain, so he ran much faster and was able to keep up with us.
Brother Lei, on the other hand, was holding a lot of treasures on his body. At this time, he was out of breath and couldn't run. He even yelled at the tall man to get him some treasures.
I cursed angrily: "It's at this damn time, and you're still thinking about the baby? Just throw it away if you can't pick it up. Don't lose your life because of this later."
Brother Lei was reluctant to throw them away and insisted on letting the tall guy take a few. The tall guy really obeyed and took the heaviest ones.
I didn't bother to care about them, so I, Zhao Hu and Guozi Lian sped up and ran faster.
Brother Lei later got really tired and couldn't run anymore, so he threw away a few treasures, and then yelled at us to slow down and don't leave him behind.
After running for a few more minutes, we ran into a big problem.
Not far in front of us, there were also many rats. They had blocked them in advance. When we shined a flashlight on them, their eyes were all bright.
Zhao Hu asked me what to do. If I couldn't shoot them, they would probably be scared away by the gunshot.
I said we can only give it a try now. If they run away, we must immediately seize the opportunity to break out.
Then, Zhao Hu rushed over with a gun and yelled: "The iron sand in my gun is soaked in rooster blood. I can't beat you beasts. Get out of here!"
Rushing forward, he pulled the trigger.
There was just a "bang" sound, and a ball of flame came out of the muzzle of the gun. The iron sand in the gun shot out and hit a large number of rats. After being hit, these rats all struggled on the ground and screamed miserably. The sound may be due to the presence of rooster blood, which has a strong ability to ward off evil spirits, and they all died after jumping around for a few times.
The remaining ones who were not hit by the iron sand naturally scattered to the side, obviously scared.
At this juncture, we immediately broke out and continued running towards the base camp.
However, these rats still did not give up and soon caught up with us. Now we only have one gun that can be used normally. Once we shoot again, there will be no one behind to save our lives, so the situation is even more urgent.
Seeing these rats getting closer and closer to us, getting bolder and bolder, and risking being bitten on their heels at any time, I had no choice but to take out a handful of quicklime and scatter it.
As a result, this thing spread with the wind and fell on the ground in a large area. The mice behind it immediately ran away and ran away. Apparently they were afraid of quicklime.
This gave me confidence, and I quickly shouted that they were afraid of quicklime. If the rats behind anyone came too close, I would just use this stuff to spread it.
Brother Lei asked us for quicklime at this time. Zhao Hu said jokingly: "When you go back later, give me half of your treasure. How about I give you a handful of quicklime?"
"Didn't I give you my treasure before? You said you wouldn't give it for free and wanted to give me quicklime and glutinous rice. Why are you asking for it now?"
"Just say whether you are willing or not, don't talk nonsense."
Before Brother Lei could say anything, I asked Zhao Hu to stop teasing him and quickly grab a handful for him to defend himself.
Zhao Hu gave Brother Lei a hand, and we continued to run back faster.
Fortunately, we were very close to the base camp and ran back within a few minutes.
When we went back, everyone else was already waiting for us at the door of the cabin. Everyone looked nervous, and no one seemed to go to bed early.
I can understand this. There were rats all over the mountains and plains just now. Their squeaking sounds were very harsh and penetrating. These people in the base camp must have heard them. It's strange that they weren't nervous.
"What's going on? Why are there rat noises everywhere?"
Sister Yuan was the first to run towards us.
She asked me and Zhao Hu while walking around me. After checking that we were fine, she seemed to be more relaxed.
To be honest, I was a little emotional at this time. Sister Yuan seems to have a pretty good character. She knows how to love and care for others like a big sister.
The only bad thing is that he likes to tease me. If it weren't for this, I think our relationship would be better.
I told them the outline of what was going on and prepared them.
Because there may be a tough battle to fight later.
While I was talking, the mice had already gathered at the entrance of the small courtyard. Because we had sprinkled quicklime on the entire courtyard, they did not dare to come in for a while. They just kept barking outside and scurrying back and forth next to the wooden house. The donkeys and mules were obviously restless at this time, walking back and forth.
No one else had ever seen such a big rat, and they were all frightened.
Sister Yuan is most afraid of mice, so naturally she quickly hid behind me and Zhao Hu, and kept cursing: "Is this mouse so big? It's so dark and disgusting. What should we do next? They won't all die. Are you here?"
