Chapter 162 Preparation
After exchanging pleasantries, Grandpa Zhou looked at Ling Tao and asked, "By the way, Brother Ling, what do you want the villagers to prepare for you? I really can't figure it out."

It's no wonder Taigong Zhou asked this question. Although Ling Taorang didn't prepare many things, none of them seemed to be related to killing the black eagle in the sky.

There are bamboo pieces, green grass, and thick ropes, just these three things, and there is nothing else. You must know that the black eagle is hovering in the air at a height of several hundred meters. These actions seem to be unable to threaten it. ?

"Hehe, you don't need to ask about such things, grandpa. Just leave it to us young people to fight with mutant beasts." Ling Tao shook his head and said, and then said seriously: "Grandfather, let them put all these things away." Okay, then rest now, let the villagers prepare meals, and in the evening, the combatants will go to action after a full meal."

Hearing Ling Tao's words, Zhou Taigong and the others straightened their faces, nodded and said nothing, and acted at night. Under such a big environment, it is not necessary to think about how dangerous it will be.

Zhou Taigong turned and left. He couldn't participate in the action of fighting the mutant beast. The only thing he could do was to keep an eye on the rear so that the villagers who were bleeding and sweating outside would not have to worry about their future.

"Mr. Ling, no matter what, safety is the most important thing. I can't help you. I can only wish you well in my heart." The black-faced old man who made the bow looked at Ling Tao and said sincerely.

Throughout the day, the huge black eagle was still hovering in the sky above the school, swooping down from time to time to hunt and eat the mutant beasts. The villagers stayed in the school for a whole day and did not dare to go out.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Ling Tao felt that after a few days, the size of the black eagle in the sky seemed to have grown a bit, which made him even more eager to kill it.

Because there was action at night, Ling Tao began to rest in the morning with the villagers who were going out at night, and slept until about three o'clock in the afternoon. Then, while observing the black eagle in the sky, he moved forward the training that was done at night to daytime.

When the sun was setting, the black eagle grabbed a huge mutant beast and left as usual. At this time, the villagers had already prepared meals, and Ling Tao and the villagers who were going to move at night began to eat.

While eating, all the men, women and children in the village were in a heavy mood and didn't say much. They all knew that moving at night would be very dangerous. They could do nothing but not hold back the villagers who were moving at night.

At eight o'clock, the sky was completely dark. On the school playground, eighty villagers including Ling Tao were ready to go, with bows and arrows, and spears. Most of the villagers were already equipped with long knives, which were not easy to forge. , so far it has not been fully equipped to the villagers who need to fight.

The torches were set up, illuminating the entire playground. Ling Tao stood in front and looked at the villagers and said, "This operation will not end until noon tomorrow at least. Everyone must cheer up and wait until the black eagle is killed." After killing, everything will go back to the way it was before. It is the first time for everyone to act at night. I won’t say much about the danger. In short, for the lives of hundreds of people in the village, we must go through this operation , I hope, how many people follow me out now, and there will still be so many people when they come back at noon tomorrow"!
The villagers did not speak, but looked at Ling Tao firmly, including other men, women, old and young people in Zhoujia Village, all of them looked at Ling Tao with feelings in their eyes. After all, Ling Tao was just a foreigner, so there was no need to worry about These villagers are desperate.

"Okay, let's go to the mountain about 800 meters away from the left front of the school. I observed it confidently during the day. The black eagle in the sky killed a total of three mutant beasts on that mountain, which means that there are relative It's safe, the chances of success will be higher if the plan is implemented there," Ling Tao said with a wave of his hand.

The villagers patted the long dragon and left the school with torches held high. When they got outside the school, they entered the dark night. The villagers holding the torches were in the middle, and there were more than a dozen villagers holding bamboo poles at least 15 meters long outside. It is necessary to "strike the grass and scare the snake" first, so as to prevent the dangerous mutant beasts from being around.

I don't know if it was their good luck, or because of the deterrent effect of the black eagle hovering in the sky during the day, they trembled all the way to the top of the mountain mentioned by Ling Tao, but they didn't encounter any large mutant beasts. We encountered many insects, but they did not pose too much threat to the villagers.

The hill they were heading to was not big, only tens of meters high, and there were no tall trees growing on the rocks. There were quite a few low shrubs, but they all grew extremely luxuriantly in today's environment.

A group of people came to the top of the mountain cautiously, and they could vaguely see the plants that the black eagle swooped down and broke during the day, especially the state that the grass more than one meter deep on the mountain was all radiating to the surroundings, which made the villagers feel dignified. How fast is the dive speed, and the wind formed by spreading the wings after landing can blow the grass like this?

"Okay, let's act quickly and try to get everything ready before dawn, and the villagers holding torches stand around to guard," Ling Tao said.

After the villagers holding torches stood outside, he said to the rest of the villagers: "Before I asked everyone to bring shovels, they were not used to deal with Black Eagles, but to dig holes. It doesn't need to be big. Here At the top of the mountain, dig a pit with a diameter of about two meters and a depth of at least five meters. In addition, under the pit, dig a hole at least 20 meters horizontally.

Although the villagers didn't know why Ling Tao dug such a hole, they didn't ask any questions. They just followed it silently. People have habitual thinking. Once they get used to following other people's arrangements, they will get used to it later. .

Digging pits is physical labor, but the villagers who are used to physical labor do not have the slightest reason. They sweat like rain and wave their shovels to dig pits. The remaining villagers carry away the dug soil in bamboo baskets and dump it.

Digging the pit does not have much technical content, but it takes a lot of time. When the digging reaches the level requested by Ling Tao, the sky has already turned white. Fortunately, there were no mutant beasts in the three heads at night, and I don’t know if it is It wasn't because the black eagle had visited here several times during the day, or else the speed would have been delayed for an unknown amount of time.

Looking at the sky, Ling Tao said: "We have to speed up, our time is running out, next, restore the surrounding environment as much as possible."

After the villagers took action, Ling Tao focused on finding a few villagers and began to decorate the dug hole.

All the prepared bamboo pieces were inserted obliquely downwards on the cave wall, and they must be firm. This is the key to killing the black eagle, and it must not be sloppy.

These bamboo pieces are all about two meters long, about the diameter of the hole, two centimeters thick, and about two fingers wide. They are made of bamboo like a bamboo bow. One end has been sharpened, and the villagers nailed it in with a hammer. The inside of the cave wall is about 1.2 meters away, but it is to ensure the firmness of the bamboo pieces. After nailing, the end supported in the hole is carefully sharpened with a knife.

This process took more than an hour, and the final result was that a circle of sharp bamboo slices 'grow' out from the cave wall at an angle of almost 45 degrees at a depth of one meter at the entrance of the cave three meters deep. There is one almost every ten centimeters, surrounding the wall of the cave, and finally forming a funnel-shaped circle, the middle circle is about one meter in diameter.

After doing this, Ling Tao jumped into the cave more than ten times under the eyes of the villagers who didn't know why, and finally nodded in satisfaction.

Then, Ling Tao asked the villagers to bring the prepared rope, made a looper as big as the cave wall, and carefully stuck the bamboo slices at the root of the bamboo sticking out of the cave entrance, sticking to the cave wall, The other end was thrown into the hole, and pulled out from the passage dug below, and pulled out from another direction.

The rope is a hemp rope about the thickness of an adult's wrist. It was a rope originally used for tug-of-war that Zhou Taigong found in the school. I have to say that when the Hope Primary School was built, all kinds of items were prepared. , Even children's entertainment is thought of, the rope used for tug-of-war, you don't need to think about how strong it is.

Then, Ling Tao asked someone to find twigs, put them on the top of the hole, and found some grass to carefully hide the hole. Finally, Ling Tao put two arm-thick bamboo poles on the hole, and they were almost together. He even tried it for half a meter, standing on a bamboo pole with one foot, standing above the hole, and he was satisfied only after making sure it was correct.

After arranging these, the sky is already bright, and the sun has risen from the sky.

"Phew, it's finally finished. Based on my observations these days, I have eight levels of confidence that I can kill the black eagle. The other two levels depend on God's will," Ling Tao thought to himself.

Afterwards, he looked at the villagers and said: "Next, it is the most critical moment. You all go to hide under the hill, so that the grass you prepared will come in handy at this time. Cover it on your body. Don't move, lest the black eagle find out that all the plans may fall short."

"Mr. Ling, don't worry, even if a mutant beast appears in front of us, it won't move," a villager said firmly.

"Okay, now everyone goes down and hides. It seems that if there are no accidents, the black eagle will come soon, and success or failure depends on it," Ling Tao nodded and said.

Then, Ling Tao specifically discussed with Zhou Mancang, he nodded and led more than 20 people to a place under the mountain to hide.

"Mr. Ling, don't you go and hide with us? The black eagle is coming soon." When the villagers left, they found Ling Tao still standing on the top of the mountain and asked suspiciously...

(Haha, can you imagine it? I think some smart friends have already imagined the mystery of arranging this hole, please recommend it for collection...)
