Inside the granary are circles of grains filled with this year's newly harvested grain.
The food circles are very close to each other, with very little space between them.
Rats can move through it easily, but large people cannot.
It is really not easy to catch a mouse in such a situation, not to mention that it is still night and the light is not very good.
Seeing that the time was almost right, Han Cheng began to persuade Wu to go back and give up the difficult task of catching mice by brute force at night.
That’s right, the biggest reason why the people of the Green Bird tribe would hold such a grand rat-catching event on a night like this was because of the witch.
Old child, old child. When people get older, they do become more and more like children in some of their behaviors.
If it were before Han Cheng came, when the tribe often had to worry about food and various other things, the witch would naturally not be like it is now.
But after Han Cheng arrived, the situation in the tribe became better and better. With Han Cheng as a big tree to protect the witch from wind and rain, the heavy burden on the witch suddenly became lightened.
After being free of pressure, the mentality of Wu, the great charlatan, became younger and younger.
After Huo Yi and Huo Er, who were older than the witch in the tribe, passed away one after another, everyone in the tribe began to have many different feelings towards the oldest witch in the tribe.
Otherwise, Han Cheng would never let anyone enter the granary at night with an oil lamp to catch mice.
Even these oil lamps do not contain much oil, and are covered with a thin layer of paper.
After all, the granary is an important place, and fire prevention is of paramount importance.
At this moment, this old primitive man, who had been careful for most of his life, was chattering towards the corner of the warehouse.
This is a stern rebuke to the rats that destroyed the food of the Greenbird Tribe.
Even the tribal dialect that hadn't been spoken for a long time was used, which showed that the witch was very angry about these annoying things.
However, although he was angry, after hearing Han Cheng say that the fire might burn the food, Wu immediately gave up the idea of fighting with the rat tonight.
Han Cheng didn't need to say anything. He, who hated rats the most, urged everyone to come out of the warehouse quickly.
After everyone came out, he personally stuck his head into the pitch-black granary and looked for a while to confirm that there were no spots of light. Then he solemnly locked the granary door.
Recalling the scene of all the houses storing grain on fire, even though Wu had seen many such scenes, he couldn't help but tremble at this moment.
Fortunately, the Son of God reminded me that I must never let fire enter the granary no matter what...
Hearing Wu Man's self-blaming words, Han Cheng and his senior brother, who had been catching mice for half the night but had not caught even a tail, began to comfort him.
After finally persuading Wu, who was becoming more and more childish, to go to sleep, Han Cheng returned to his room to sleep.
Little Pea went to bed very early tonight. When Han Cheng entered the room, Bai Xuemei and her son were already asleep.
Han Cheng covered the mother and daughter with a linen sheet and went to bed quietly.
Thinking back to Wu's childish behavior, Han Cheng couldn't help but want to laugh.
But no matter how funny it is, we still need to find a way to deal with the rats in the granary.
In addition to physical methods of catching mice such as hanging embryos, the simplest and most effective way is to raise a cat.
After all, this thing is the natural enemy of mice. Putting two of them in the granary will be much more effective than Wu lying by the door crack and looking into the granary all day long.
Of course, the cat mentioned here is not Tom who is lost and bullied by mice and big dogs.
If Fu dared to unite with the rats, Han Cheng would not need to do anything. Wu, the old guy who was still agile when he got angry, would be able to kick them in the ass a few times.
But this can only be considered Han Cheng's wishful thinking. After all, he has never seen a cat until now.
I have seen tiger and leopard cubs, but although these guys look fierce and cute when they are young, they are not suitable for catching mice.
For Han Cheng and the Qingque tribe, cats are still a rare luxury.
Just like the big livestock that Han Cheng had dreamed of since he started farming, it is still a dream to this day.
Fortunately, we used rapeseed to lure back a group of stupid deer at the beginning, otherwise, it would be difficult to grow crops in the tribe now.
Even without cats, there are still many other species that catch mice. For example, after the eagle fell asleep, the cat climbed up the tree, and thus the flying owl was born.
When it comes to catching mice, he is just as good as his father who is nowhere to be found.
But that guy is very good at catching mice in the wild, but he won’t be able to do that once he puts them in the granary.
The cat and the owl, father and son, had no hope. Snakes, as cold creatures, were good for catching mice.
This thing is relatively easy to find, but Han Cheng couldn't help but shiver when he thought about entering the granary in the future, with snakes and insects running around everywhere, or a snake falling from the beam into his neck.
The only time he was not afraid of snakes was when he was eating them. At other times, he was reluctant to provoke such creatures.
After encountering it, I felt a little scared and always wanted to find something to kill it.
But thinking about the fact that many people went out to catch rats tonight, Han Cheng felt that compared with this thankless task, it would be more cost-effective to bring in some snakes.
At least in the entire Qingque tribe, it seemed that except for him and a few other people, the rest did not seem to be afraid of these guys. On the contrary, many people could not help drooling when they saw these cold guys.
Han Cheng felt that after introducing the non-venomous snakes into the warehouse, he would need to order the protection of these seemingly cold but actually useless creatures.
Otherwise, before they could eat the mice, they would be eaten by those ferocious guys from the Qingque tribe.
Han Cheng was thinking about things like this, and after he made a plan, he suddenly remembered the issue of fire prevention in the granary that he had discussed with Wu tonight.
This is indeed a top priority for the Qingque tribe. After all, it is the basis for the Qingque tribe to have the spare capacity to do other things and gather people of such a large scale.
Once these foods are destroyed, not only will the various things that the Qingque tribe is currently doing be forced to stop, but even the population currently gathered in the tribe will be forced to disperse and look for food to survive.
Although the tribe has taken the fire prevention of the granary very seriously and did not think there was any problem before, Han Cheng could not help but feel a little worried at this moment.
