Chapter 468: It Really Is Divided Into Three Steps

Du Fei had a question in his mind.

He asked who it was while walking over to open the door.

He heard an anxious voice coming from outside the door, "Brother Du, my little Wang~"

Du Fei heard it and it was Xiao Wang from his office.

This was strange. Although they had a good relationship at work, it was the middle of the night and Xiao Wang was so anxious to come to his house. What was the matter?

Du Fei hurriedly opened the door and saw Xiao Wang with an anxious face. When he saw Du Fei, he said, "Brother Du, great, is your cat here?"

Du Fei was stunned. He didn't expect that Xiao Wang's first question was to Xiao Wu. He was surprised and said, "Don't be anxious, tell me slowly~ What's wrong?"

Xiao Wang swallowed his saliva.

Du Fei asked him to go upstairs to drink some water.

But Xiao Wang waved his hand and said, "I'm fine, Brother Du~ Hurry up, take Xiao Wu with you and go to the grain depot with me. There are mice at my uncle's place!"

Du Fei was a little confused. He didn't quite understand the meaning of 'mouse trouble'.

Although I heard that the rats in the granary are different from the usual ones, they grow very big and are not afraid of people.

But rats are rats, what else can they do?

But looking at Xiao Wang's angry look, he didn't seem to be joking.

At this time, the third uncle who came in with Xiao Wang changed his face.

Xiao Wang came just now, in the middle of the night, he was the uncle in the front yard, and he must have asked who he was looking for.

If he was looking for someone else, he would just ask.

But when he said he was looking for Du Fei, the third uncle immediately sent him over attentively, but he didn't expect that after hearing this news, he hurriedly interrupted and said, "Are there really rats? What's the situation? Is it serious?"

Xiao Wang ignored him and just urged Du Fei.

Seeing him like this, Du Fei didn't ask stubbornly, and said, "Wait a minute, I'll put on my clothes."

He went back to the house to put on his clothes, called Xiao Wu who had already returned, and hurriedly rode his bicycle and left with Xiao Wang.

The third uncle followed behind, feeling anxious.

But Xiao Wang really didn't want to answer him correctly.

Seeing the two people leave, the third uncle frowned, and his little bitch eyes rolled around.

At this time, Sha Zhu, who had just been staring at Bang Geng in the middle yard, came to the front yard at some point and called out "Third Uncle" with a smile.

The third uncle said "Ouch", turned around and said "Hey~Sha Zhu, you scared me."

Sha Zhu said with a grin, "Third Uncle, what happened just now? Who was that person?"

The third uncle was thinking about something, and was still thinking about the few words he had just heard. He said casually, "It is said that there are rats in the grain warehouse..."

The third uncle came back to his senses halfway through his words and laughed dryly, "Uh~ That person is a comrade from Du Fei's unit."

After finishing the matter, he ignored Sha Zhu and turned back to the house.

Sha Zhu blinked his eyes, rubbed his nose with his hand, and quickly returned to the middle yard, sent Bang Geng home, and ran to the first uncle's house.

"Zhu Zi, what's the matter?" The first uncle and his wife were preparing to take Xiaojun and Xiaoling to bed.

Sha Zhu lowered his voice and said, "Uncle, open the door~"

After waiting for a while, the door opened.

Sha Zhu went in.

Yi Zhonghai asked, "What's wrong?" while wearing his clothes. Auntie also came out with Xiaoling in her arms.

Sha Zhu said, "Uncle, Auntie, someone just came to see Xiao Du. Uncle San said that there were rats in the grain warehouse. It seemed to be quite serious. Do we need to..." At this point, Sha Zhu couldn't help swallowing his saliva, "Do we need to prepare?"

Yi Zhonghai's face changed.

Auntie also changed color.

It's not that they are making a fuss, but that they have experienced a difficult period in the past few years.

They are particularly sensitive to things related to grain.

Especially when it comes to rats in the grain warehouse, it must not be just a few dozen or a few hundred, but a huge number of tens of thousands.

In addition, they have only a vague understanding of plague, and they are afraid that rats will pollute the grain and they will starve.

Yi Zhonghai couldn't help licking his lips and said in a deep voice, "Zhu Zi, don't make this public yet!"

Sha Zhu nodded hurriedly. He also knew that once it came to food, there was no small matter.

No matter whether it was true or false, if he spread it out, causing people to panic and rush to buy food, he would definitely not end well.

Yi Zhonghai said again, "Let's get up early tomorrow morning and go to the grain station first."

Sha Zhu nodded, knowing that Yi Zhonghai was secretly hoarding some food at home just in case, and whispered, "Then the old lady..."

Yi Zhonghai waved his hand and said, "Don't tell the old lady first, I'll buy an extra portion so that the old lady won't starve."

Sha Zhu laughed dryly, "Well, the old man wants to buy food. I don't lack money, but the food coupons..."

Yi Zhonghai was stunned, "No, you work in the cafeteria, and you don't buy food very often. Where are your food coupons?"

Sha Zhu scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, "I used them all at the pigeon market."

"You~" The old man pointed at him and scolded, "You prodigal son, I'll lend you 20 kilograms first..."

Sha Zhu was not satisfied, "Just 20 kilograms~"

Yi Zhonghai glared, "How much more do you want? You don't have any food coupons left?"

At the same time, Du Fei and Xiao Wang rode their bikes to the grain depot quickly.

They were not coming to the grain warehouse behind Chu Cheng's grain station.

They were coming to a larger grain reserve warehouse in the north of the new city.

From a distance, Du Fei could see the huge grain storage towering inside through the wall.

At the same time, Xiao Wu, who was sitting on the back of the bicycle, also smelled something unusual.

He immediately opened his mouth and let out a roar similar to that of a tiger or leopard.

Xiao Wang, who was riding a bicycle beside him, heard Xiao Wu making this noise, and felt a chill coming from his heart. He couldn't hold his hand on the handlebars, and the bicycle swayed.

Fortunately, he was not short, so he could barely stand with his legs spread apart.

There were many people standing at the gate of the grain storage warehouse. In addition to those from the grain storage warehouse, there were also many soldiers.

Du Fei's sharp eyes quickly found Gu Bingzhong who was surrounded by people.

At this time, Gu Bingzhong was wearing a gray tunic suit, gritting his teeth, frowning, and feeling like an ant on a hot pot.

But as a leader, at critical moments, he cannot get into trouble and must remain calm in front of others.

Looking past the crowd, he looked inside the gate of the grain depot, within the light range of several searchlights.

The ground was filled with black rats running around everywhere.

Du Fei's scalp felt numb just looking at it, wondering where could there be so many rats? And looked at Xiao Wu with some worry.

Although it is natural to say that mice are afraid of cats.

But when it reaches this level of magnitude, quantitative change has already reached qualitative change.

Now for these mice, not to mention one cat, but a hundred or a thousand, they are not afraid, they will gnaw them into cat bones when they swarm up.

On the contrary, nearby, Du Fei saw several cats that were originally kept in the grain depot. They were so frightened that they trembled and did not dare to move.

However, Xiaowu showed no fear at all when he saw this scene.

Instead, he jumped from the rear frame onto Du Fei's shoulders, raised his head and looked at the scene of rats raging in the grain depot.

At this time, Du Fei and Xiao Wang arrived behind Gu Bingzhong.

Xiao Wang called "uncle".

Gu Bingzhong turned around and saw the two of them, especially Xiaowu lying on Du Fei's shoulder, and his eyes immediately lit up.

Shake hands with Du Fei tightly: "Great, Comrade Du Fei, you are finally here."

Du Fei said, "Lao Gu, what's going on? Where do so many rats come from?"

Gu Bingzhong sighed, "In all the years I have worked in the granary, this is the first time I have encountered such a large-scale rat infestation. I had heard from an old comrade that a rat infestation broke out in the Tongzhou granary during the Guangxu period, and more than 300,000 kilograms of rats were transported from the granary. The food that had just arrived through the canal was all eaten up overnight.”

At this point, Gu Bingzhong sighed, "Originally, I thought it was an exaggeration, but now it seems..."

As he said that, he looked inside the grain depot again.

With the current situation, so many rats are like a swarm.

If we really can't solve it until tomorrow morning, we don't know how much food will be lost. I'm afraid it won't be much less than 300,000 jins.

At this time, a soldier with a resolute face came over, glanced at Du Fei and Xiao Wu on his shoulder, and said in a deep voice, "Director Gu, I think it's really not possible, so I'd better use a flamethrower~"

When Gu Bingzhong heard this, his head was like a rattle, "No, absolutely not! Captain Zhang, there is still a lot of flour in the warehouse. Once it encounters an open flame, it will explode..."

Speaking of this, Gu Bingzhong seemed to remember some horrific experience and couldn't help but vomit, "A flamethrower is absolutely useless! Captain Zhang, you don't know! The flour will really explode, which is more terrifying than a bomb. The land within a radius of two miles will be razed to the ground."

Company Commander Zhang was stunned for a moment, with a look of disbelief on his face.

This is the first time I heard that flour can explode!

However, Gu Bingzhong looked serious, obviously not joking with him.

But seeing those hateful rats destroying food and being helpless, he felt like needles pricking his heart.

After Gu Bingzhong finished speaking, he looked at Du Fei... Xiaowu on his shoulder and said expectantly, "Xiao Du~ Our grain depot is counting on you this time!"

Du Fei didn't say much, he communicated directly with Xiaowu and asked if it would work.

If Xiao Wu said no, he would not force Xiao Wu to take the risk.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Wu was actually very excited. He immediately let out a "meow" and jumped directly from Du Fei's shoulder to the roof of the military jeep next to him. He raised his head and roared like a wolf.

Xiao Wu's "Woo" sound is deeper than the howl of a wolf and can be heard far away.

Everyone present was stunned, including Captain Zhang and his soldiers.

Because it was night, many people didn't notice the big cat lying on Du Fei's shoulder.

Now I pay extra attention and realize that Xiaowu is different.

After this sound, the most immediate effect was on the cats in the original grain depot.

There were probably dozens of them, shivering in fear from the tide of rats. After hearing Xiaowu's roar, they all stood up, as if they had found a backbone, and gathered together.

As the old saying goes, one soldier is a raging enemy, and a general is raging in a nest.

Although Xiaowu's territory only covers half of the old city, and these cats were not Xiaowu's subordinates originally, it doesn't matter now.

Dozens of cats came over and changed their faces on the spot. They bared their teeth and meowed as they faced the inside of the grain depot.

At first, no one thought that a big cat would solve the problem. After all, there were too many rats in the grain depot.

But this scene gave people a glimmer of hope.

Even Gu Bingzhong was surprised

.

At the same time, Xiao Wu jumped off the roof of the jeep and took dozens of grain depot cats that he had summoned, trotting towards the grain depot gate in a swaggering and unhurried manner, like a group of gangsters.

Originally, these granary cats had been catching mice and eating them in the granary all year round. All of them were fat and strong, and their fighting ability was not weak.

It's just that I was scared to death by the rat tide before.

Now that Xiaowu is leading them, it's like they've been given a shot of blood, and their combat effectiveness has soared back again.

However, everyone was staring at the gate of the grain depot.

Seeing Xiaowu leading a group of cats, they are about to come into contact with the rat tide, and the battle is about to break out.

Xiaowu walked in directly.

And those big rats running around on the ground, as if they had met their nemesis, scattered to the side and made way.

This scene was both unexpected and reasonable.

Isn't this what rats should do when they see cats!

As expected, a bloody cat-rat war did not break out.

Xiao Wu led dozens of cats in the granary.

Not long after, he came out with a red-haired rat that was bigger than an ordinary rat.

This big rat was obviously old, with white beard.

But it was obviously far inferior to the "Taoism" of Gray Immortal, and posed no threat to Xiao Wu.

At this time, it was dying, bitten on the back of the neck by Xiao Wu, and kicked its legs from time to time.

And after the red-haired rat was caught, the rat tide in the granary stopped and dispersed around in the night.

In the minds of everyone present, a sentence popped up: brine tofu, one thing subdues another.

Especially Gu Bingzhong, when he invited Du Fei to dinner last time, he talked about Gray Immortal.

Du Fei once said disdainfully that it only takes three steps to deal with Gray Immortal.

Gu Bingzhong didn't say it at the time, but he didn't agree in his heart.

Now it seems that Du Fei really didn't brag, and he really divided it into three steps. The first step is that Xiaowu went; the second step is to bite it to death; the third step is to bring it back.

A ready-made example, right in front of us!

It wasn't until Xiaowu came back and threw the dying red-haired mouse in front of Du Fei like a treasure that Gu Bingzhong reacted and shook hands with Du Fei again, thanking him profusely.

Company Commander Zhang on the side also breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't care whether it was a credit or not. It was better to keep a warehouse of grain than anything else.

Du Fei was very humble and polite. Seeing that there was nothing to do, he proposed to leave.

Originally, he was planning to get another mouse and go to the abandoned water tower not long ago.

Just when he was sleepy, someone brought him a pillow.

This red-haired rat, although not as good as Gray Immortal, is also a ‘leader’ level rat.

It was saved by white light, so it must be stronger than Little Gray.

Moreover, Xiao Wu brought it back just now, and the rat still had a breath left.

Unfortunately, there were too many people present, so he couldn’t directly store it in his personal space.

In addition, Xiao Wu was too harsh, and before he could say a few words, the red-haired rat kicked its four legs and was completely barbecued.

Gu Bingzhong was still hesitating and insisted on inviting Du Fei to dinner to thank him.

Originally, Du Fei was still refusing, and wanted to find an excuse to take the red-haired rat away quickly.

Now there was no need, so he simply agreed to give him a good beating and let this old Gu talk too much and make things worse.

Du Fei paused, smiled and said, "Then I'd rather obey than be respectful, but~ Old Gu, you can't be stingy, you must get some good wine!"
