Chapter 67

Judging from the information collected so far, the biggest threat to everyone from the Tartars comes from the incense made by the unique Mudara on the grassland.

It was like seeing one dizzy and another, and there was no antidote for Da Rang.

The Tartars must have some, otherwise they wouldn't make a mistake to stun their own people with such a powerful drug?
There must be.

But because he had taken the antidote beforehand, he was fine.

The few tartars caught in the early winter were taken away. Many people wondered if they could pry the information about the antidote of Mudara Mixiang from their mouths.

Wan Ning guessed with the intuition of an alchemist, even if she asked, it would be useless.

Poison and antidote have always accompanied and complemented each other.

I have never heard of any antidote to poison, which was found thousands of miles away.

Therefore, the antidote that can cure Mudara's fragrance must also grow on the grassland.

It is impossible to get an antidote in the short term, at least not this year.

But this is another unavoidable problem for her to protect the village.

How to do it?

I can only avoid these drugs.

In the past, the village has always responded negatively, and life or death basically depends on God's will.

People in these six villages can go out to work and earn a living during the day during this sensitive period, but they must return to the village at night.

Although there is no one to supervise, the villagers supervise each other.

Whoever is caught, after verifying the situation, the whistleblower's family can hide in Wucheng to escape the battlefield this winter.

The family suspected of hiding will face a fine and be prohibited from leaving the village until after the end of the season's war.

All of this was obtained by Wan Ning from Old Man Sun.

They have been exiled here for so long, and no one has talked about this with these new exiles. During this process, they may not have saved their minds to see their mistakes and report them.

As for why Duanmu Rong, Bai Tinghe and Wu Qiaoqiao didn't talk about it, Wan Ning didn't try to guess or ask.

Instead, he called all the little brothers together, told Wei Zhiya and the others about this, and told them to notify all the people who were exiled together when they returned home.

Of course, it is limited to this village, and outsider villages, so don't worry about them.

Originally, the relationship between Wu Qiaoqiao and Wei Zhiya had eased, but this incident broke down again, and they became more guarded.

Even Wan Ning was on guard against the three of them.

The topic has been dragged away again, and it will be brought back again.

Wan Ning's current cultivation base is in the foundation building stage, and her mental power can only be released about a hundred meters away from her body, which cannot cover the entire village, so she cannot secretly guard the village.

Only when the cultivation base has reached the golden core stage can the mental power be released to reach a thousand meters.

Now that the physical fitness cannot meet the promotion requirements, and the source of aura is also limited, the promotion of Jindan can only be done at another time.

It won't be of much use this winter.

In this way, the plan to discover the Tartars in advance so that everyone can avoid the Tartars will not work.

Then, we can only think of other ways.

Wan Ning flipped through her memories of cultivating immortals to see if she could find any solution.

After a day and a night, it really made her think of a way, which is to ring the bell.

Ringing Ling Formation is a simple version of Eight Diagrams Formation made mainly of bells and ropes.

This array has only one function, if you accidentally step on it, the bells on the entire array will jingle non-stop.

If there is someone who understands the law of music, rhythm and Taoism, he can use this bell to kill and trap people.

Don't think about these things in this world, it is enough to remind everyone when the Tartars are coming.

Then everyone can hide in the tunnel, or in the cellar.

Wan Ning only found out in the past few days that every household in the village dug a cellar for hiding.

But the Tartars looted the village every year, and some of the cellars had already been found out by them.

So it's not necessarily safe to hide in.

Whether they can survive or not depends on their own luck.

Set a trap to remind everyone that it is up to the individual to choose whether to resist or hide.

At least this is much better than doing nothing and just waiting for the Tartars to come over.

Wan Ning told the village chief Dong Yuan about this idea.

She didn't say it was a formation, but only said that the bell was tied to a rope, and the rope was tied around the village to set up a trap.

As soon as the Tartars came, as long as one of them stepped on the rope, all the bells would ring.

As long as they hear the bell, people in the village know that the Tartars are coming.

There are so many military households in the village, united to resist, and everyone is familiar with the terrain of the village, it may not be impossible to keep them.

No one wants to die. The village chief was very moved by this proposal.

So the village chief called all the big guys together and talked about Wan Ning's proposal, which was approved by most of them.

Only a small number of extremely negative people chose to lie flat and resign themselves to their fate, and were not interested in what the village chief said.

Now time is urgent, the village head is busy asking everyone to collect copper coins to buy bells, or if anyone has bells, they can take out a certain amount of bells without paying copper coins.

The cost of buying bells is shared equally by every household in the village. There is no such thing as your family being richer than mine and you have to pay a little more.

It's the first time I do this, and I don't know how many bells I need to use, so buy as many bells as possible, after all, I want to surround the whole village.

Then set a hundred for the time being.

It is also because there are too few bells, and the sound of shaking is not loud enough to be heard, so it is meaningless to set this trap.

Try it after it's all tied up. If it's not loud enough, you have to buy it again.

If the noise is enough, then don't buy it anymore.

As for the rope, let's use hemp rope, every household has it, and it is enough for each household to collect a little.

But it should not be too thick. The thickness of the embroidery needle is the best, so that it is not easy to be found, and it is also necessary to ensure that the fine linen cannot be easily broken.

If it breaks when you step on it, the trap is no longer a trap, but it will alarm the Tartars, making them more careful and cruel.

With a goal, the energy of the people in the village suddenly rose, from sluggish to full of energy.

It's like a dying tree ushering in life.

After purchasing the bells, Wan Ning instructed everyone how to set up traps and how to tie the bells so that they could ring at the touch of a button, and all the bells would ring together.

The villagers don't understand the rationale, so they just have to follow suit.

It's just that these are delicate tasks, not everyone can do them.

Help if you can help, and don’t make trouble if you can’t help, but you must also remember where these bells are tied, and remember not to step on them at ordinary times.

At the same time, everyone must keep their mouths shut and not spread this matter.

There are Tartar spies in Wucheng. If they want this trap to work, they must not let outsiders know about it. Otherwise, if the spies find out and inform the Tartars, everyone in their village will die!
As for whether this matter will get out after this winter, let's wait and see the situation after this winter.

The height of the rope binding should be low, below the calf, so that it is not easy to be swept by the sight.

But it cannot be buried by snow, so even if the trap is triggered, the bell will not ring if it is buried by snow.

The whole village, young and old, mobilized together, and finally set up a circle of traps around the village within three days.

After finishing the arrangement, the village head tried the effect. One hundred bells rang together, but the sound was still quite far.

When everything is silent at night, the sound of the bell travels even further.

After finishing these, it is only the first step, and there are still some formations that need to be carved, so there is no need to let the villagers know.

There are two types of formations that need to be engraved, one is the hidden formation, which makes it difficult for people to find traps.

Even those who know the truth need to find it deliberately in order to find it.

The other is to engrave the smell of the old and young in the village into the trap, so that the trap has an automatic recognition function, even if people in the village accidentally step on it, the bell will not be triggered.

And once an outsider accidentally touches the trap, the bell will immediately spread to every corner of the village.
