Chapter 24
"The cunning rabbit has three holes, and these holes must have been made by bamboo rats.

Let's look around for these caves, and leave one cave for burning the bamboo rats in the cave, and block up the other caves to prevent the bamboo rats from running away. " Bai Shu said affirmatively.

Immediately afterwards, the Huang Zisu brothers and sisters began to find other caves around the largest cave.

After a while, the brothers and sisters found seven or eight caves of different sizes and came out, all of which were blocked.

"Then use wooden sticks to surround the left, right and top of the last cave to prevent these bamboo rats from escaping after they get out of the cave, and reserve a hole at the bottom for lighting a fire and smoking.

Fourth brother, go pick up some firewood, prepare to start a fire and smoke. " Huang Zisu folded her arms around her chest, and just stood aside and watched her four brothers work, and she didn't need to make a move.

Even if she wants to work, her four brothers always have various reasons to take away the work in her hand, watching her so helpless and happy.

"Okay, let's make a fire." Cang Zhu saw that the cave was surrounded on the left and right, and everything was ready. After lighting the fire, he first lit some dry wood, and when the fire slowly ignited, he added some wet wood to it. .

The fire simmered down, wet wood was not allowed to burn, and it was easy to smoke. After a while, puffs of thick smoke came out of the firewood.

Cang Zhu did not know where to find a few big leaves, and distributed them to the other three brothers one by one. The four of them took the big leaves and fanned the thick smoke vigorously into the cave.

After a while, Huang Zisu heard something moving underneath, the rustling sound of running.

"Come out soon, prepare the rope to tie it up." Cang Zhu heard that the movement in the cave was getting louder, and it was coming towards them.

He hastily threw the big leaf in his hand, and took a wooden stick to burn up the fire in front of him, so as not to block the three sides, and the things in the cave would risk fire and escape from his direction.

"This rabbit is so fat! It weighs six or seven catties." Huang Maidong has learned a few kung fu skills. He has sharp eyes and saw a big gray rabbit escaping from the cave. He raised his hand , grabbed the rabbit's ears in an instant, held it in his hand and shook it a few times, after shaking the rabbit unconscious, tied it with a rope and weighed it a few times.

"here we go again."

"I'm coming."

"Catch it quickly." Brothers Tian Dong, Bai Zhu and Cang Zhu saw that there was another prey coming out of the cave for them to catch, all three of them showed excitement on their faces.

"Hey, this one is too small, it's a little rabbit."

"The one I caught was not too big."

"The one I caught was smaller than the one my big brother caught." Seeing that Mai Dong had caught the big rabbit, Tian Dong and Bai Shu brothers saw that the next thing they ran out of the cave were small rabbits. A look of disappointment appeared on his face.

"This movement obviously means that a big guy is about to come out." Suddenly, the brothers and sisters obviously felt that the prey coming out of the cave this time was huge, because the movement on the ground was much bigger than before.

Brothers Tian Dong, Bai Shu and Cang Zhu were gearing up and eager to try. The three of them also looked at each other to see who could win this round.

Huang Zisu on the side looked a little funny.

"I'll do it." Tiandong is an honest and honest person. In order to win the first place this time, he saw a black shadow running out of the cave. He didn't see what the black shadow was, so he directly rushed towards the black shadow. .

The black figure suddenly raised its head, stood upright, bared its teeth and yelled loudly at Tiandong.

Tiandong looked shocked, and regretted that he was reckless, but now it's better, injuries are always inevitable.

"Be careful." After Mai Dong saw that it was not a rabbit that escaped from the cave, but a huge bamboo rat, he also saw his elder brother rushing towards him stupidly, and took a bite with the sharp and big teeth of the bamboo rat. Not to mention the broken bone, the flesh will always be gnawed off. Mai Dong quickly grabbed his elder brother's back collar, and lifted his elder brother up with one hand.

Floating in the sky above the bamboo rat, the bamboo rat jumped up and down a few times and wanted to bite his elder brother, but it didn't touch him
"Second brother is thanks to you, otherwise I would have been injured today." Seeing that he was not thrown to the ground, nor bitten by the bamboo rat, Tian Dong was instead being carried by his second brother like a chicken, he He immediately breathed a sigh of relief and thanked him.

"Big brother, third brother, and fourth brother can see more clearly next time. If they are bitten by this huge bamboo rat, they may cause some kind of disease." In this era, if you are bitten by an animal, you don't know if it will be serious or not. You will get rabies, if you really get it, it is really an incurable disease, Huang Zisu hastily told her four brothers.

"Susu, don't worry, we will be careful."

"I'm coming."

"It came out again." After learning from Tiandong's mistakes, they all became more careful and didn't reach out to grab it. Instead, no matter what prey came out of the cave, they knocked it unconscious with a stick first, and tied it up.

In the end, the brothers and sisters caught twelve rabbits, three big, four middle, five small, and seven fat bamboo rats from the cave. It's heavy.

The five little rabbits weighed less than a catty, so Huang Zisu let the five little rabbits go.

So that they grow up, reproduce, and continue to give back to them in the future.

.

Shanshui Town is not far from Yunhe Village, and you can reach the town in an hour's walk. If you drive an ox cart or a horse-drawn cart instead, you can reach the town in half an hour.

There are more than 100 villages gathered near Shanshui Town. These villages have a larger population of more than [-] households, and villages with a smaller population of [-] to [-] households form a village, scattered around Shanshui Town.

Every Friday, Fifteenth, and 25th are market days. During these three days, villagers in nearby villages will bring their own mountain products, bamboo products weaved by themselves, or chickens, ducks and fishes that can be sold at home. Things will be taken to the town for the market in these three days.

Sell ​​some silver to supplement the family or barter for some things the family needs.

The day before the Huang family went to town happened to be September [-]th.

Before their family rushed to the town, on the way to the town, they met many villagers from nearby ten miles and eight villages rushing to the town.

There were groups of three or five people, most of whom were hurrying on their way with big bags and small bags talking and laughing.

Occasionally, a bullock cart full of people passed by from time to time.

The people sitting in the bullock cart met acquaintances and greeted them from time to time. This scene gave Huang Zisu a feeling of deja vu.

What the hell seems to be fleeing famine again.
