Ambition Lord

Chapter 20 The Unknown Beast

Qinghuangling, Fengguo Village.

At dawn, before dawn, the busy farming season has passed, and every household in Fengguo Village has not yet woken up, and the calm is broken by a sudden knock on the door.

"Boom! Boom! Village chief!...Village chief!" The door of Binger's house, the village chief of Fengguo Village, was slapped frantically.

Binger was awakened directly from his sleep. After being the village chief for so many years, Binger could still recognize the person calling him. He was the only carpenter in the village, Kabir. He must have something urgent to knock on the door of his house so early. Thinking of getting up quickly to let his wife and children go to sleep.

He opened the door casually, and sure enough Cobil was standing in front of him, but the smile that usually hung on his face was gone, and he looked terrified and bewildered. Binger also found his wife Anne and daughter Jona behind Cobil.

"What's the matter? I was in a panic early in the morning, what happened?" Binger asked the terrified Cobir, and looked behind them, seeing nothing.

"Village...village chief, I think I...found that guy." Cobil, who had recovered a little, said intermittently to Binger.

"..."

"Corbill! What the hell are you talking about! Make it clear!"

"The village chief! Who is it! It's the guy who often steals poultry! He's in my sheep pen." Cobil hurriedly explained.

"What!" Binger was startled.

This month, people will report to Binger every day, saying that the number of chickens and ducks in their family is less, and the number is still the same yesterday, but one is missing today, and the thief cannot be caught. Chickens and ducks are kept in pens, but they are driven home at night.

Unexpectedly, the thief didn't steal chickens and ducks, but now he steals sheep.

"Let's go, gather a few people, catch the thief with me first, don't let him run away!"

After that, Binger began to gather several young and strong boys in the village, each with a weapon in his hand, and rushed to Cobil's house.

"Village Chief, I have something to say!" Kabir said suddenly.

"Say!"

Seeing everyone looking at him, Cobil said hesitantly: "Village chief, I think this thief may not be human. Today I was awakened by the screams in the sheepfold in my sleep. When I approached the sheepfold slowly, I I was startled when I heard the roar that sounded like a wild animal, and I didn’t dare to approach, so I dragged my family to find you, the village chief.”

beast?Binger thought for a while, and wondered for a while whether he should risk the danger and take everyone there.After all, beasts are still very dangerous. Fengguo Village is close to the Black Dragon Mountain Range, and sometimes wild beasts in the mountains will indeed break into Fengguo Village.

Every year, groups of wild boars in the mountains will run into the fields to harm the crops. Occasionally, wild deer can be seen wandering outside the village, and they will be frightened into the woods when they see people. Some people have seen bears and wolves...

However, there are not many wild beasts that dare to steal poultry, but now dare to steal sheep. Binger can only think of bears, wolves, leopards and tigers. After all, only these big beasts will take sheep as prey .

These carnivores are not easy to deal with. Both bears and tigers are invincible except for knights. The strength of bears can approach one ton, while the limit strength of low-level knights is close to one thousand kilograms, which is almost one ton of strength, and tigers also have nearly eight hundred kilograms. Even though they are not magical beasts, they are stronger than many low-level magical beasts.

Leopards are not very powerful, but they are too fast, and it is difficult to be caught if they want to escape. Wolves live in packs and are extremely cunning. Generally, a pack of wolves has at least a dozen wolves, so it should not be underestimated.

These carnivores are not easy to mess with. Binger is hesitant to take everyone to take risks. After all, it is not worthwhile to cause casualties for some livestock.I can only express my worries first.

"What if there is danger?"

"What are so many of us afraid of..."

"I think I have to go and see, and I must catch this guy!"

"..."

……

Then it’s time for discussion, but after listening to Binger’s thoughts, some of you are afraid of the danger and suggest not to go, and will check after the beast is gone; want to find out.Everyone expressed their opinions, and they couldn't agree on it for a while.

"Okay! It's almost dawn now, everyone, don't quarrel here, let's observe from a distance first, and retreat if there is any danger." Binger saw that these guys couldn't understand why they were arguing, so they could only think of a discount in the method.

That's how it was settled.

In just a few minutes, a group of people came to the vicinity of Cobiel's house. This position happened to be able to clearly see the sheepfold of Cobiel's house.

The sky was gradually getting brighter, and the situation in the sheepfold was clearly seen. Several sheep were close together, but there was no trace of the beast they wanted to see.

"Village chief! No, he might have run away!" said Pine, the hunter who led the team.

"Go! Go and have a look!" Binger slowly leaned over while speaking.

Seeing that there was no danger for the time being, the others followed suit.

"It's missing! One sheep is missing, it must have been eaten by something." Cobil said emotionally.

Binger had a clue in his mind. It seemed that the recent disappearance of livestock in the village was really caused by this inexplicable beast.

Looking at the thoughtful hunter Pine, Binger said, "Pyne, have you discovered something? Let everyone know."

"Village chief, I just found some footprints in the circle, you can take a look." Then he brought Binger to the footprints.

A group of people joined in the fun and followed. This is a mouse-like footprint, not the footprint of a wolf or tiger with large pads, but it is confusing. It is really that the footprint is a bit big, similar to that of a human. About the size of a palm, it may be an unknown animal.

"I have been hunting for many years, but I have never seen such a large footprint. Moreover, this kind of beast is estimated to be quite large and eats meat. We cannot deal with it at all. I suggest seeking help from the Baron." Pine said with a serious face. Speaking of ferocious beasts, as a hunter, he knew all too well that as long as there were no oversized carnivores to deal with, it was the best choice to seek help from the baron.

After hearing Pine's words, Binger also tended to seek the help of the baron. After all, he might not be able to defeat this unknown beast, but the baron must have a way.

However, I still haven't figured out what kind of monster is stealing, so I ran to Lord Baron for help in such a daze, I can't afford to lose face!
Let everyone go home first, anyway, the culprit has already left, and other people are useless here.

Back home, Binger sat down on a chair in the back yard, thinking.

……

Rubbing his head, Binger finally made up his mind and decided to go to Qinghuang Town with the cheek.

After all, if this ferocious beast is not dealt with, if this problem is not resolved, the livestock in the village will continue to be lost, which may cause casualties, and it will be too late to ask the Qinghuang leader for help.
