Imperial Hunters

Upon hearing Yao Ling's words, Chen Sha laughed coldly and said, "Brother, you guys look down on me. I'm already over seventy years old and have spent my whole life on the edge of a blade. To be able to live until today is a blessing from the heavens. I don't feel at ease with life and death. Chen Chou Sheng was the most loyal. Money is nothing. At my age, how could I not be willing to part with those worldly possessions? Rest assured, I will definitely do my best to help, we will just have to save them. As for the Rat Temple, we will think of a way when we get back. "

Chen Changsheng's niece, Chen Changsheng, had a fiery temper as she anxiously shouted, "The child has already been taken away. Why are you still talking about this? Quickly go and save him!"

Unexpectedly, her shout seemed to have alarmed the old cat in Wei Wuji's arms.

That old cat had always been tame and docile to Wei Wuji. However, at this moment, she suddenly broke free from his embrace and rushed towards the direction of the temple with all her might. Wei Wuji let out a cry and immediately followed closely behind. The group of people followed him all the way to the empty space at the foot of the temple.

At this time, there were more than a hundred villagers gathered in the open area. They were escorting the unworshiped woman and child onto the ground, and Chen Changsheng rushed over in an attempt to snatch her away. Chen Changsheng grabbed her from the side and said in a low voice, "You've gone mad! Look ahead! "

They squeezed and gnawed at each other, but they did not scatter. They maintained a four-sided formation, just like a legion of soldiers waiting for their commander to give the order, and if any wind or grass blew the mice away, or if Big Singh gave the order to attack, the tide of rats could instantly tear the one hundred people down and devour them.

However, what was very strange was that in the open space between the rats and the villagers, the old cat was squatting. Its four feet were touching the ground as it crouched low, and its two eyes were staring at a puddle in front of it.

Wei Wuji whispered to everyone: "It's so chaotic around here. There are so many rats in front of us, but the old cat is unmoved and only stares at the puddle. There must be something strange inside. Everyone, be careful not to rush in."

When Chen Xiaohua heard him say that, she immediately took off the rifle on her shoulder and asked Chen Sansa, "Master, is Singh hiding in a puddle? My spear is extremely accurate at this distance, if he comes out, I'll shoot him right away, right?"

Wei Wuji quickly stopped him: "Don't shoot! The one hiding in the puddle shouldn't be Big Singh, I think it might be the Rat King amongst all these rats. These rats don't dare to attack us without permission right now, but once you shoot down the Rat King, the rats might lose control of themselves! "

"Then what should we do? Do we just waste time like this? What is the purpose of these rats bringing children to this place? " She was really worried about the child's safety, so she didn't want to just wait and see.

"I think the group of rats are waiting for the battle between the Rat King and the old cat. When the victor is decided, we'll wait and see." After saying that, Yao Ling stretched out her hand to grasp the dagger at her waist, preparing to rescue that infant as soon as it was hurt by someone or a mouse.

Unexpectedly, there were people among the villagers who lost their cool. A very old woman and three robust men walked out from the crowd.

The gas station owner saw them and told everyone that these four people were the believers who had attacked the old cat. All the cats nearby were killed by them, and now it seemed like they were going to make a move on the old cat to make the Rat God happy.

As expected, one of the old ladies called out, and one of her sons picked up a stick and was about to hit a cat. As expected, the old lady called out, and one of her son picked up a stick and was about to hit a cat.

Yao Yun and the others were beside him, so naturally, they could not let this village man succeed. Chen Xiaohua quickly slung the rifle over his shoulder and pulled out a Glock pistol with a silencer from his armpit holster. He aimed it at the village man's leg and shot. He had always been accurate with his spear. Although it was slightly far away, it did not affect his aim in the slightest. The village man let out a strange cry as his body lost its balance. He was in the right for being unlucky. After staggering a few steps, he fell into the pool of water.

Just as this man fell down heavily and splashed up a large amount of mud from the puddle, something the size of a calf suddenly jumped up at an extremely fast speed in the scattered mud. Then, the puddle began to boil as if a pot was boiling, and that thing threw itself onto the man's body, violently attacking him.

The old granny and her two sons who were standing not too far away saw the disaster that had befallen on their loved ones, and could no longer be bothered with them. Carrying their sticks, they rushed forward to rescue them. With a single leap, it traveled a few meters and arrived in front of the old woman and her son. With a strange cry, it threw the three of them to the ground and bit open the old woman's throat. Just as it was about to attack the other two sons, the old cat saw the opportunity and stealthily sneaked over from behind.

In the blink of an eye, the old cat had already pounced on the huge rat from behind. It first bit onto the back of the huge rat's waist, its two front paws forcefully clamping on both of its ribs, wanting to pull the huge rat from behind before attacking its abdomen, throat, and neck, but the size and strength of the huge rat was simply too great. After being ambushed by the old cat, it shook off the old cat's control of its back, turning around and biting onto one of the old cat's front claws.

She wanted to ask them to think of a way to help that old cat, but both of them knew that the only way to deal with this situation was by relying on the old cat to defeat the Rat King. If there was an outsider who came to help, the distant rat swarm would immediately attack all the living creatures nearby. That way, not only would the more than a hundred people present be bitten to death, even the nearby villages would be implicated.

This duel did not last long. The boiling mud pit suddenly calmed down. The huge Rat King laid down in the pit, and his convulsing limbs gradually stopped.

The victorious old cat climbed out of the mud pit with great difficulty. Its left forelimb was bitten by a giant rat, and its entire body was covered in blood and mud. It was completely missing its original appearance. However, it was the victor in the end. After crawling out of the mud puddle, it opened its mouth and issued a few clear and powerful cat cries. To the rats behind it, that meowing sound was like a warm bomb thrown by an enemy.

At this time, Yao Yun and the rest didn't care about anything else. Wei Wuji had long gone up to that old cat and picked it up to help it clean and heal. Chen Wei and his sister, Chen Yao, rushed over to pick up that baby.

The villagers saw an old cat actually bite the Rat King to death. This was an unforgivable sin to offend the Rat God, and they wanted to go up and beat the old cat to death, but they also saw Yao Yun's group carrying guns. Although they didn't know where they came from, it was clear that they couldn't afford to offend them.

Although Chen Sha Sheng could not be compared to Yao Yun and Wei Wuji's hunting methods, he was an experienced veteran of the martial arts world. Seeing that the rats were indeed under the control of the Rat King, these rats immediately fell and scattered like monkeys, running for their lives. This was a rare opportunity, if he didn't sneak into the temple now, then when he called for his niece and disciple, he would prepare to go up the mountain.

Yao Yun looked at the crowd and said to Chen Changsheng, "Old Master Chen, I think it's best if Wuji and I accompany you in. Tell your two nieces to stay behind and take care of this old cat."

The reason he had made this arrangement was that he could not bear to leave this old cat and wait for death. He was also worried that Chen Jiayi would cause some trouble in this mouse temple where danger lurked everywhere.

Chen Changsheng understood his intention and agreed. Thus, he left behind his two nieces to watch over the old cat and the mother and the two children while he led the rest of the people to climb up the mountain path towards the Rat Temple.

The temple was built in a cave halfway up the mountain, so it wasn't too high. Soon, the few of them arrived at the platform outside the temple.

Surprisingly, there were a few mouse slaves outside the cave smoking and drinking tea, as if none of this had anything to do with them.

Chen Chou Sheng pursed his lips. The owner of the gas station understood what he meant, so he took his rifle over to ask. The rat slaves seemed to cooperate, and they talked to each other for a long time. Chen Chou Sheng stood at the side and listened to them finish their words. He then personally raised his pistol and ordered them to stand up and lead the way. He led the crowd into the godly temple to find Da Singh.

The mouse slaves were very obedient. They stood up from the ground and led the way in front without any care. The group then entered the interior of the mouse temple.

Although this godly temple was built in a cave in the mountains, the decorations inside were extremely gorgeous. The walls and roads were very flat, and the walls of the cave were painted with all sorts of colors.

Although the temple had been repaired by craftsmen, it was still arranged in the same way as the cave itself, with wide or narrow curves. Without the guidance of the Mouse Slaves, it would have been impossible to find Singh.

Chen said to Yao, "These scoundrels have been cheating with the Singer brothers for many years. They said that they received a divine omen in the past few days that Singh was about to be done for. They are willing to lead the way, as long as they can get a share."

Wei Wuji held his gun and stared nervously at the mouse slave in front of him: "Who would believe their lies? They are leading us into a trap. Who knows what kind of ambush there might be."

Yao had other opinions, he said, "Perhaps what these rat slaves said wasn't all a lie. Perhaps what they mean by a divination of the gods is that something happened to Singh. Of course, this is just a hypothesis. "These rat slaves have been following Singh for a long time, so they must have seen something, but we have to be careful.

They walked through a long and narrow corridor. In front of them was a relatively spacious room, which was filled with a dozen or so statues of saris. However, they were far away from seeing what material the statues were made of, so they couldn't tell if it was black or made of iron, or black after the silver statues had oxidized.

Ah!" Wang Xiaosi suddenly shouted, "That statue moved a little!

Everyone immediately became alert and aimed their guns at the statue in front of them. However, they didn't see anything unusual with the statue.

"Are you seeing things? If you're so timid, you should stay outside with your sister and the others." Chen Xiaohua took the opportunity to quickly push her away, but Chen Changsheng suddenly discovered that one of the statues' face had indeed moved a little. Or rather, there seemed to be something moving on the statue's face.
