She called Xiao Ba and the other two together with Brother Gu to discuss the matter, and said seriously, "I have a way to lure the wolves into a trap.
We dig a batch of traps covered with sharp bamboo strips at a certain distance. When the first batch of traps fails, we will replace them with the second batch. When the wolves go to the traps farther away, everyone will kill the wolves in the previous traps, repair them, and reuse them.
Of course, this is for the situation where there are many wolves. If there are few wolves, there is no need to cycle.
The key point is that bait can only be placed temporarily, and someone must be in charge of each batch of traps. If you are slow to run after casting, you may be injured by the wolves;
In addition, it may also attract nearby wild animals such as tigers and bears.
Do you think it’s feasible?”
Several people showed surprise, and Xiao Ba reacted the fastest: "When hunting in the jungle, is it possible to use bait to attract animals to gather together? It's feasible. Each batch of traps should be farther apart, or you can dig them under a big tree and hide in the tree to throw the bait. This will avoid being injured by the wolves."
Xiaomei: "Don't worry, there are usually no other ferocious beasts in the wolf's territory."
Xiaolan looked at her with sparkling eyes and couldn't help asking, "So, when we fought the tiger, was it you who lured it here?"
Brother Gu was excited, "Ran Ran, you actually have such a treasure! From now on, we will never lack prey wherever we go."
Gu Xinran thought about what Xiaoba and Xiaomei said, and her doubts were dispelled. She felt that the solution was feasible.
He looked at the troubled Xiaolan and Big Brother again and said, "Little Starling, you guys can discuss this with the village chief later. I'll leave the trap digging to you. I'll only be responsible for making the bait.
Oh, I have to spend a lot of money again. This thing is expensive and difficult to configure. I don’t have much, so I won’t use it unless it’s absolutely necessary. "
After saying this, he shook his head and patted his chest with a look of pain on his face, which discouraged several people from abusing the bait.
Xiao Ba and Brother Gu acted decisively and adjusted the anti-wolf plan with the village chief, Uncle Zhang, Master Qiu and others.
Gu Xinran found a deserted place, slipped into the space, found a piece of wild boar meat, cut it into small pieces, sprinkled spiritual spring water on it, divided it into small portions, wrapped it with double layers of oil paper and tied it tightly for later use, and would take it out and give it to Xiao Ba and the others in the evening.
Everyone did their job and spent the whole afternoon busy. Six batches of traps were set up, each one thirty meters apart.
After dinner, everyone built a bamboo ladder and climbed up to the highest cave on the cliff. The cave was not big and could accommodate fifty or sixty people if they squeezed together.
Everyone cleaned it up, gathered the elderly and children, and escorted them inside with their bedding.
The wolves couldn't climb up to this height, so by settling them properly, the strong laborers would have fewer worries and could focus more on facing the wolves.
Unfortunately, this is the only cave five meters high.
There are two other caves more than three meters high. Wolves can jump up, but it takes some effort. Women or people who are too weak to kill wolves gather in them, which can provide some protection.
There are twice as many people on duty tonight. There are four big bonfires burning in front of the cave, and the firewood next to them has piled up into a small hill.
Everything is ready, just waiting for the wolf to come. Of course, it’s best if he doesn’t come.
Unfortunately, the wolves did not hear their voices.
In the second half of the night, rustling sounds were heard in the distance, and countless green lights appeared and disappeared.
The patrol personnel immediately struck the gong, and the "clang clang clang" sound woke up the villagers who were afraid to sleep.
Everyone stood guard in front of the cave with swords and bows and arrows, and lit several more bonfires.
Gu Xinran called Xiao Ba and gathered together Brother Gu, the Xiaomei sisters, and the Qiu brothers who were responsible for placing the bait.
He took out the prepared backpack and distributed the tightly packed bait to several people.
Repeatedly explained: "It can only be opened right before release. This thing is very attractive to animals."
Xiao Ba patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, just wait and see the show."
Several people acted separately and took their respective positions.
Gu Xinran looked around and saw that there were quite a few green spots flashing faintly in the jungle, moving towards the cave.
Although she had made various preparations, she was still unsure and worried about her relatives hiding in the cave.
Oh, when will the space be expanded to 15,000 square meters? I really want to bring my family into the space right now.
Gu Xinran thought of Xiao Mingzhan and thought to herself, boyfriend, you have to behave well in the future!
Suddenly, a gong sounded, and Gu Xinran knew that Xiao Ba and the others had started to take action.
Soon, countless green spots of light moved rapidly towards the first batch of traps they had dug.
Then, the sharp and noisy howling of wolves was heard.
As the howling gradually became smaller, two more gongs sounded, and the second batch of traps were activated. Many green light spots changed direction and ran towards that direction.
…
When the third gong sounded, fire started at the first trap. The young men chopped with swords and shot with arrows, and soon killed the wolves that were not dead in the trap.
Quickly clean up, rearrange things, put out the fire, and disperse, ready to face the wolves again.
After six batches of traps were set, there were not many wolves left.
Of course, not all wolves were obedient. A few of them rushed to the front of the cave and were killed by Master Qiu, Uncle Zhang and their men.
The wolves were not stupid. They gradually came to their senses, resisted the temptation of the spiritual spring water, and slowly retreated.
This won't work. Wolves are vengeful animals. Once you escape, they'll come back to take revenge later, and it'll be hard to defend against them.
In order to go all out, Xiao Ba left a few people to deal with the wolves in the trap, and led the others to chase and intercept them. Soon, the remaining wolves were all killed.
The plan is perfect, the execution is strong, and in the battle between humans and wolves, Qingshan Village wins!
Only a few villagers suffered some minor injuries, and the disaster was averted.
The elderly, weak, women and children who stayed in the cave finally put aside their worries and went down to the surface to help clean up.
By the bonfire that was as bright as daylight, everyone gathered all the wolves together, a total of ninety-two of them.
Big wolf pack!
Faced with such a small hill of wolf carcasses, everyone was dumbfounded, especially the elderly, the weak, women and children who had come out of the cave.
They hid in a high cave and trembled with fear when they heard the howling of wolves.
I never thought that the men of Qingshan Village, under the leadership of Xiaoba, were so powerful that they could kill so many wolves. The girl from the Gu family was even more resourceful and had so many treasures. It was amazing!
Several elders of the Gu family are now braver and less frightened than before, unlike before when they were always nervous.
Grandpa Gu felt that Ranran was blessed by the gods, and everything would go well for him, and the villagers would also benefit from it.
Everyone looked at the wolf corpse and sighed, thank goodness the plan was well planned, otherwise there would have been countless casualties tonight.
Now it’s time to share the fruits of our labor.
The villagers agreed that this time they would not distribute the spoils based on the number of people. Instead, each family would get one, including the nine girls, and the rest would be rewarded based on merit.
The villagers thanked Gu Xinran, Xiao Ba and other members of the Gu family for leading them to kill the wolf pack and prepared to share the remaining half of the wolves with them.
Gu Xinran quickly refused. She heard that wolf meat was not tasty, had a strong fishy smell and was tough. It would be a waste to eat too much. Only by giving it to the villagers could it realize its value as meat.
But wolf skin is a good thing. You can get a few more. It has good warmth-keeping effect and is valuable when sold.
