Ordinary people in the world of Uncle Nine

Chapter 193 Capture
...

Uncle Jiu looked at Qiu Sheng with a smile on his face, but Qiu Sheng felt a chill down his back, and quickly hid behind Aunt Cane.

Uncle Jiu cast him a helpless look. Originally, he hadn't planned to tell the story of this tapir right now, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble, but Qiu Sheng flaunted all this, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and tell Village Chief Ma. They explain.

"This marrow-eating tapir is just an ancient legend. As for whether it is true or not, it remains to be verified, so you don't need to panic too much."

As the saying goes, God treats all things fairly, and opening a window for you will inevitably close the door for you.

Although the marrow-eating tapir can easily penetrate the skull with its tongue, this kind of monster is not very courageous and dare not face people directly, so it hunts for food through sneak attacks.

So as long as you don't turn your back on it, you can guarantee your own safety.

Secondly, his talent is given to agility, so his strength is not very strong, and normal adult men can fight it.

It's just that it is a demon after all, if it is pressed too tightly, it will still be dangerous to people under the counterattack.

Although it is not confirmed whether it is a marrow-eating tapir or not, Uncle Jiu already has seven or eight percent certainty in his heart.

"Uncle Jiu, if it's really this ghost thing, how can we catch it?"

After listening to Uncle Jiu's words, the villagers not only did not feel reassured, but became even more afraid of him. After all, who knows if one day they will turn their backs on it, and then their lives will be gone. Just look at Ma Laosan. He died before he could react.

"Mr. Ma, you can gather the young and strong people in the village, two by two, and lie in ambush inside the house. According to my observation, this monster has tasted the sweetness, and it is estimated that it will come to our village again. It is very likely that it will come from this row. Let's start with the house."

Ma Laosan's house is at the edge of the village, and there are not only one house on the edge, not far apart, the two houses are one behind the other sandwiching Ma Laosan's house in the middle, and the reason why he would He was chosen first, most likely because of the slope facing his house.

The marrow-eating tapir should have come down from here, and Shi Laosan just turned his back to it before being killed.

That being the case, they just need to set up traps in advance and wait for it to drill.

Fortunately, there has been no moonlight in the past few days, and the moon seems to have disappeared. Don't worry that the tapir will not appear because of the moon.

In the endless darkness above the sky at night, only sporadic stars were shining. People in Xiahe Village were told early on to close the doors and windows of their homes, and forty or fifty young men who were called by the village chief hid behind Ma Laosan and behind him. of two houses.

Everyone held their breath, holding all kinds of weapons that could be used nervously, waiting for instructions.

As for the arrangement of the trap, it is still placed in Ma Laosan's yard, mainly because his yard is just sandwiched between the other two clamps, and facing the hillside behind, it is perfect as a trap.

Immediately after everyone hid, Wen Cai was pushed out by Uncle Jiu as bait with a look of lovelessness.

It's just that compared to before, being the bait this time gave Wen Cai a full sense of security, and the reason for this expression was because he couldn't escape being the bait every time.

The oil lamp was lit in the house, and this house was the only one in the whole village that was lit. Wen Cai looked at the people hiding in the house from the house with a happy face.

The light cast Wencai's shadow on the window paper, but he knew that the time had passed, but he still didn't hear anything approaching. Wencai, who was already tired from walking, couldn't help turning his head to look at Uncle Jiu.

"Master, how long will it take? I'm so tired!"

"Shh, don't call me, just take a break when you're tired!"

Wen Cai's sudden call to him shocked the drowsy Uncle Jiu and the others. They thought it was the marrow-eating tapir, but it turned out that Wen Cai was just tired.

Hearing that he could rest, Wen Cai immediately lay down on the table as if he had unloaded a heavy burden. Not long after, he heard the sound of snoring.

"Master, is there a mistake?"

Qiu Sheng lay on the ground to avoid the light from exposing him, and then asked Uncle Jiu in a low voice.

He felt that there was no movement for such a long time, and it was estimated that there would be no show tonight, and the young and strong people in the original village were also looking tired at this time.

"Don't talk, just wait!"

Uncle Jiu, who was also lying on the ground, was a little uncertain when he heard the words, but he had waited for so long, so he didn't mind waiting a little longer.

And just as Uncle Jiu and the others were struggling, a dark figure approached quietly on the hillside behind, hiding behind the bushes and staring at the lighted house.

And in the darkness, a pair of pupils with a faint green light looked at the lighted room with a trace of doubt.

He didn't seem to understand why there were still people in this house, so he thought about it and touched it down from the hillside.

It stepped on the ground with two feet and did not make any movement. Its two arms were hanging vertically, almost touching the ground. When it was close to the fence, it jumped over the fence and landed without making any movement.

However, the moment it entered, the originally quiet chicken coop suddenly became chaotic, and the rooster instantly turned into a fighting chicken, its feathers all over its body exploded, and it croaked towards it.

It was also at this time that the people in the room were awakened by the movement outside, and Uncle Jiu touched the window and gently opened a corner, and immediately saw a dark figure leaving quickly.

"Get up, don't let it get away!"

Uncle Jiu and Qiu Sheng grabbed the bows and arrows they had prepared and leaped to catch up with them from the window. Now that they knew the tapir's movements were flexible, they naturally had to prepare something to restrain it. The others also reacted at this time. , rushed out towards the door in a swarm.

"oops!"

The door was only that big, and these people got stuck in the doorway. When they came out, Uncle Jiu and the others had already chased up the hillside.

"Hurry up!"

They didn't expect that the things they had been waiting for all night would be scared away by the chickens. They rushed up the mountain with torches, and suddenly the people on the mountain were clamoring and the flames flickered.

The black shadow in front was moving through the forest at an extremely fast speed, while Qiu Sheng and Uncle Jiu did not dare to stop chasing desperately, and the villagers behind were holding torches and the sound of gongs was loud.

"Whoosh!"

An arrow flew through the shadows of the trees and flew to the black shadow in front of it. It twisted its body and avoided the attack with force under its feet.

Then a few arrows blocked it in several directions, and after it avoided them all, Qiu Sheng had already chased him.

"hiss!!"

But the moment Qiu Sheng stood in front of it, a sense of crisis surged in his heart, so he rushed to the side, only to see that the wood bark on the tree trunk behind his original position was broken, and a small hole appeared there impressively.

"Gollum!"

Seeing the appearance of the tree trunk, Qiu Sheng couldn't help but feel a little scared. If he hadn't reacted in time, he would have been pierced to the bone by now.

One blow failed, and the marrow-eating tapir immediately wanted to get away. At this time, Uncle Jiu's arrow had already flown, and an arrow pierced its leg, and it stumbled and fell to the ground.

When he got up, he was already surrounded by Qiu Sheng and Uncle Jiu.
