Khan, I wouldn't ask if I had known, everyone would know.

"What's the matter making a fuss?" Professor Zhao stepped forward and asked. He also realized that this "thief" should not be a human being.

"I don't know either. It's too slow. I only saw a shadow running through the waterway. Maybe it was a weasel. Xiaopi got involved in this thing. I'll get a cage tomorrow and I have to catch it. It's too rampant." Liu Junhao said uncertainly. He felt that the black shadow he saw was bigger than the weasel.

There are many weasels in the countryside, including fields and gullies, and around the village, and some even set up homes in the villagers' houses. This thing is particularly rampant and is a bit demonized in the eyes of rural people. The more they spread, they become more and more magical, and eventually become Wong Tai Sin.

Weasels are very revengeful. It’s okay if you don’t mess with them, but once they get it, they will be in trouble. Two years ago, Liu Guangqun, the village was cleaning up firewood in his yard, and found a big weasel in the pile of firewood, so he picked up a stick and chased him.

The weasel was also clever and escaped from the depths of the firewood. The next night, their family became uneasy. The hen clattered and the yard was not like a big deal. When Liu Guangqun went out to take a look, he saw seven or eight weasels dragging chickens in their chicken coop.

A few chickens at home were bitten to death one night, which made Liu Guangqun feel very distressed. The next day, he gritted his teeth and borrowed several cages from the village and placed them next to the chicken coop, preparing to catch all the weasels in one go. However, these guys were very clever and bit five or six chickens to death, but none of them were left behind.

In the end, he followed the old man in the village and carried about a dozen big white geese from his neighbor's house and put them in the yard before he could calm the group of rampant weasels.

Although the big white geese are usually quite gentle, they are also famous for being unable to provoke and are very aggressive. People in the countryside know that they are good at home. People usually visit strangers and do not ask if you have a dog or not, but if you raise a geese.

Although a dog barked when he saw a stranger, he usually would not rush up and bite him immediately, and he also listened to his master's words. But the big white goose is different. When he sees a stranger, he will stretch his neck and peck. As long as you move a little slowly, you will be pecked with a large piece of blue and purple.

Although geese are blind like chickens at night, they are very alert and can be felt when there is any movement. They are also relatively large and are not afraid of weasels when they see weasels, and they often take the initiative. Therefore, weasels are very afraid of them. People with gooses dare not even get involved in the yard.

Liu Junhao and the others struggled all night. When they woke up the next day, they both looked with panda eyes. In the morning, he borrowed a cage from Liu Laosan's family early, and then took Xiaopi to the field to find a mouse hole.

Rats are also quite cunning animals, especially voles. The law of survival of the fittest in nature makes them particularly capable in long-term evolution. Even if people encounter them in the fields, it is difficult to catch them, because they will drill into the hole as they chase them.

The mouse cave is a major project, countless times more sophisticated than the tunnel in "Tunnel Warfare". It has the main hole, side hole, and fake hole. The holes are connected, which is very conducive to escape.

Even if you know there are mice in the hole, you often can't dig them, because the side holes are very hidden, and they will quickly escape from the side holes as long as they feel danger. Therefore, experienced people will carefully search the surroundings before digging, blocking the holes.

There is a tradition of digging rat holes in autumn. When the autumn harvest is over, men, women, young and old will walk around the fields with shovels, looking for rat holes. At this time, the crops in the fields have been harvested, so it is fine no matter how hard they are digging in the fields.

Digging a mouse hole in autumn can be said to be of many benefits. At this time, the mice have basically stored grain, and the rat warehouse is full of grain, such as sorghum, corn, soybeans, mung beans, etc. As long as there are in the fields, they can be found in their warehouses. A smaller warehouse can be about a dozen kilograms of grain, a larger warehouse can be dozens of kilograms, or even hundreds of kilograms, which can be filled with a long worm leather bag.

But it is difficult to find a rat warehouse. Sometimes you dig all the entire mouse hole, but you can't find a rat warehouse. It's useless to be busy for a long time.

However, Liu Junhao was not here to dig a rat hole today. He was going to irrigate it with water. Now there are crops in the fields, and there is no way to dig a rat hole. Even if the ditch can dig by Liu Junhao, he didn't want to make a fool of himself, because at this time there was generally no food in the rat warehouse, and it was just a few mice, so it would not take such a lot of effort.

On the way, he happened to meet a few kids catching fish in the ditch. He shouted at the top of his throat, and the group of naughty kids immediately ran over and followed the team.

There are so many mouse caves in the wild that they found one on the side of the road. They looked at the surrounding soil and saw that the soil particles were very wet. This was a hole just dug, and there must be mice hidden inside.

The first thing to do when filling the mouse hole is to determine the main hole, and then the group of naughty children went around to check and search for hidden side holes to seal them one by one. They are all experts in filling the mouse hole, so their eyes are very poisonous and they have not let go of a side hole.

After wrapping the net bag on the main hole, a group of people started watering with the washbasin. After pouring several basins of water in a row, the mouse hole was filled with the mouse hole. A gray-black little head kept stretching its head in the hole, probably because it couldn't hold back its breath.

Sure enough, as soon as the water stopped, the mouse ran out of the hole quickly and hit the net bag. Liu Junhao, wearing gloves, reached out and pinched it and threw it into the basket.

Two big and three mice were caught in this hole, which was enough to use it at night. So I finished work and went home, threw the mice into the cage, and waited to catch the weasel at night.

The cage is a wooden box specially made in rural areas to capture weasels. It is more than one meter long and as wide as a brick. There is a spring arch on the wooden box. One end is made of a small cage to hold mice. The other end is hung with twine to make a piece of grinded blue bricks as the gate of the mechanism. The entire design is quite clever and it is enough to deal with a single weasel.

At night, he placed the cage at the base of the wall not far from the waterway, waiting for the weasel to take the bait. In order to make it come in with confidence, Liu Junhao also locked Xiaopi in the house.

But in the middle of the night, Xiaopi barked again, and even the hens in the chicken coop were clamoring. Liu Junhao heard the sound was wrong and quickly got up and opened the door. Xiaopi, who had been impatient, jumped out.

This time, Liu Junhao finally saw it clearly. Unexpectedly, his estimate was completely wrong. The one who came to steal the chicken was a grass raccoon. The fiery red fur flashed in the waterway's eyes.

"Catch it," Professor Zhao asked in the house at this time.

"No, it turns out that it's not a weasel, but a grass croaker." Liu Junhao suddenly remembered the grass croaker that Xiaopi caught last time. Could it be that he came to take revenge? Thinking of this, he had already confirmed the difference in his heart.

The grass raccoon is more vengeful than the weasels and has a greater harm. Weasels usually hold a chicken and run away when they enter the chicken cage, but the grass raccoon is different. When they enter the chicken cage, they usually bite all the chickens to death, and finally take one away. Some people don’t eat any one, and they bite the chicken to death and return home with nothing.

It is more difficult to deal with, it is very fast, small and flexible, and ordinary domestic dogs cannot catch it at all. Some people will even take the domestic dog to the edge of the trap and lure them into the trap.

Liu Junhao knew that he would not be able to catch it tonight, so he opened the gate of the courtyard so that Xiaopi could go out to catch up.

No matter how cunning this fox is, he should not be able to beat the yellow skin. Xiaoxi is not an ordinary domestic dog, and his speed is no worse than that of a grass raccoon.

Sure enough, they waited in the house for almost an hour, and Xiaopi immediately became alarmed and left the main hall quietly. Xiaopi didn't scream when he touched his prey. She screamed a few times just because she was trapped in the yard and couldn't catch up.

There happened to be a moon tonight, so Liu Junhao saw everything in the yard clearly. The fox was also very clever. As soon as he smelled Xiaopi, he ran to the base of the wall quickly and drilled out of the waterway. Xiaopi rushed out of the yard and chased after him.

"Good guy, it depends on how you escape this time." Liu Junhao was quite confident in Xiaopi.

But just as he was about to turn back to the room, he saw another black shadow emerging from the waterway's eyes and tiptoed to the chicken cage.

Liu Junhao was stunned for a moment.
