"Lin Shuang, it's pitch black down here. Why don't we get a torch and go down later?"
Wang Jianzhong took out a fire starter from his arms, opened the lid, blew it with his mouth, and sparks came out.
"You guys go find some wooden sticks." Wang Jianzhong asked the people next to him to find some wooden sticks, while he went to the kitchen to get some cloths and found a few cans of oil.
"Constable Wang, we found it, look." Several constables came over in a short while, holding wooden sticks in their hands. They should have been cut down from the mountains and brought back to dry for use as firewood.
"Smother it with these pieces of cloth."
All the wooden sticks were covered with cloth. Wang Jianzhong poured oil on them and handed one to Lin Shuang.
"Lin Shuang, this is for you. Light it up when we get down."
"Okay, thank you, Constable Wang." Lin Shuang took it and thanked him.
Xiao Ce leaned against Lin Shuang, feeling a little nervous.
Wang Jianzhong glanced at the sky and said, "Let's go down."
Wang Jianzhong went down first, followed closely by Lin Shuang.
Then Xiao Ce followed below, and the constables behind him also followed.
Everyone went in and lit torches. The passage below was instantly illuminated. Walking along the road, they saw cats and dogs tied by their collars, some of which were already dying.
"There are so many cats and dogs. I didn't expect that He Sheng is not alone."
"Meow~" The cats and dogs saw a group of strange people coming and thought they were in the same group as the previous person.
All the cats and dogs were on the verge of going crazy, roaring and frantically trying to break free from their ropes and cages.
"Mimi, don't be afraid." Lin Shuang took a step forward.
"Stepmother, please don't leave. They seem to be in a very bad condition. What if they catch and bite you if you get close?"
Xiao Ce pulled at the corner of Lin Shuang's clothes, his face was panicked, his brows were furrowed, and he looked disapproving. After all, the condition of these cats and dogs was really too bad.
"It's okay, I have a way." Lin Shuang gave Xiao Ce a reassuring look.
I stood there and watched the cats and dogs for a while.
In fact, it is communicating with the system.
"System, I want to exchange for a potion that allows me to master animal language." Lin Shuang remembered that the system mall had everything. There was nothing that could not be bought there, except what you couldn't think of. In the final analysis, points were required to exchange for it.
[Okay, the Beast Language Potion is already in the space. Please check it yourself. 500 points have been deducted.]
"What? You are such a black-hearted system!" Lin Shuang looked up at the sky speechlessly, took out the beast language potion from the space, and drank it smoothly by covering it with clothes.
After drinking the beast language potion, Lin Shuang slowly walked forward.
Xiao Ce's heart was in his throat. He clenched his fists and tensed his body, fearing that the cats and dogs would suddenly attack Lin Shuang.
Unexpectedly, Lin Shuang's voice was soothing, and the cats and dogs were no longer as ferocious as before.
"Mimi, we are not bad people. We are here to save you. The bad guy who hurt you has been arrested. Don't be afraid."
Although it was a normal thing to say and there was nothing wrong with it in front of outsiders, these cats and dogs understood it.
Everyone raised their heads and looked at Lin Shuang in surprise, with tears in their eyes.
"Meow~"
"Woof woof."
Cats and dogs were meowing and barking. Although others couldn't understand them, Lin Shuang could.
They were all words of gratitude, his defensive posture put away, and his voice became softer, without the previous sharpness.
"Don't be afraid, they have no intention of harming anyone. Come and rescue these cats and dogs."
After Lin Shuang discussed with the cats and dogs, she turned around and spoke to everyone.
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what words to use to describe it. They didn't expect that Lin Shuang was so liked by these animals. She looked fierce just now, but now she is so docile.
However, seeing that they were no longer ferocious, several people stepped forward, drew their swords, and cut the ropes.
These cats and dogs, whose emotions had just calmed down, started to get angry again and made defensive noises when they saw the swords.
"Mimi, puppy, don't be afraid. They are all good people and are here to save you." Lin Shuang touched the little orange cat closest to her, touching its head and chin.
She felt comfortable being touched and her moans were of pleasure.
Hearing Lin Shuang's words, he lowered his guard and allowed the officers to approach, untie their ropes and open the cage.
Once opened, the cats and dogs that had the strength jumped around a few times, while those that didn't had the strength just stayed where they were.
Everyone looked at Lin Shuang, because among so many people, only this person could communicate with them.
"Don't run around for now. I'll take you back later and find you a family to adopt me.
Perhaps there is a master among you."
After Lin Shuang finished speaking to them, she looked at Wang Jianzhong.
"Detective Wang, I'd like to wait until these cats' wounds have healed and see if anyone wants to adopt them. If not, could you please post a notice and ask some kind-hearted people to donate money to provide these cats and dogs with a place to live?"
Lin Shuang looked at the many cats and dogs and realized that if she could only feed them on her own, she might starve to death before they could be fed.
Without the ability, Lin Shuang would not dare to take on this job privately.
Wang Jianzhong took a look at these pitiful animals and felt sorry for them, so he thought about it for a while.
He nodded and said, "Lin Shuang, I will report this matter to the county magistrate. I will tell him your suggestions truthfully. Now let's go out first. The ventilation here is not enough."
"good."
Lin Shuang was really glad that the officials and county magistrates he met were all kind-hearted people. He was just afraid that even when he was in a desperate situation, there would still be people who wanted to give him a push.
"Everyone, try to get all these cats and dogs out. If they're still alive, we'll take them to the infirmary for a checkup. If they're dead, bring them out and bury them."
When he said this, Lin Shuang clearly felt that Wang Jianzhong's voice was a little nasal and a little sad.
"Okay, I'll go up first and take it." Immediately, a constable went up first and waited at the entrance of the cave.
The others have already started moving.
Lin Shuang faced these eyes that she couldn't even count, and said, "We'll take you home, don't run around."
Many cats and dogs barked in unison to show that they understood.
The constables carried them up one by one, and the kittens and puppies lay obediently in their hands without moving.
Because they knew that this was to save them, the hunters at the cave entrance above caught them one by one and put them aside, and they did not run around.
As soon as they came out of the cave, the dazzling sunlight shone on the animals, but they did not feel hot. Instead, it was a bit like the sun on a hot day shining into winter.
