Chapter 472 Waiting for the Rabbit

Xu Dayou came forward and quickly found the medicine warehouse that He Lingchuan wanted.

This row of warehouses is divided into three rooms, which store four kinds of medicinal herbs. Prunella vulgaris is among them, occupying a warehouse to itself.

"Is there anywhere else to store Prunella vulgaris in Luocang?"

"Yes, but they are scattered in seven or eight small warehouses. The herbs are all mixed. We checked the inventory and found that the most was about 400 kilograms and the least was only 40 kilograms. There was no classification." The person in charge pointed. In the warehouse behind him, "The goods have been packed here, totaling 17,300 kilograms. They will be sent to seven places within three days."

"That's it." He Lingchuan went in and took a look around himself, confirming that all the herbs were there, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief.

As expected, he had been rushing back and forth since last night and finally got a head start.

"Is this warehouse always storing prunella vulgaris?"

"Yes. The warehouses in the center of the town are the most well-maintained, so they store the most valuable medicinal materials; the warehouses on the edge of the town always stock Prunella vulgaris and ephedra."

These medicinal herbs are cheap and few people steal them.

General Ling was always a little worried: "Will Wan Song just find some medicine shops and grab some Prunella vulgaris to deal with it first?"

He Lingchuan asked him: "Why did you, Mr. Daomai and Wan Song, choose Zhitian Township as their base?"

General Ling thought for a while: "It's easy to get herbs here?"

"If it is really for this reason, the demon puppet's consumption of Prunella Vulgaris will not be small." If it only takes a few kilograms or a few taels, then you can buy it from any drug store, why bother to move to Zhitian Township?

Only in Zhitian Township can you buy medicines in bulk for a long time without arousing suspicion.

Before He Lingchuan could speak, Jiao Yu said: "Now that Mr. Mai has been exposed, they can no longer stay in Zhitian Township and must evacuate as soon as possible. If it were you Wan Song, the monster under your control cannot do without Prunella vulgaris, you What will happen?”

General Ling blurted out: "If you get a big vote, withdraw."

We have to grab a vote anyway, so it is better to go big than to go small.

He Lingchuan patted the medicine bag beside him: "There are more than 20,000 kilograms of Prunella vulgaris here, which should be enough to last for a while until a new source of supply is found."

"Does he know how to come here to look for you?"

"Wan Song may not understand, but Mr. Mai should be very clear." He Lingchuan said calmly, "Mr. Mai is a careful person, and he usually plans his escape route. There are always prunella vulgaris to be transported in Luocang, so this is their backup warehouse."

In fact, he still had a ridiculous idea in his heart, which he never told other people or monsters.

To be verified.

"Then what do we do now?"

"Make some arrangements, and then just wait and see." He Lingchuan asked Xu Dayou, "I heard that the grass jelly here is delicious?"

"That's a must!" Xu Dayou said with a smile, "Every time I go to Luocang for business, I have to drink a bowl of grass jelly on the way back and forth."

It's mid-summer now in July, the season when you'll be sweating profusely if you move. Although we all have real power and vitality to protect our bodies, which can reduce the damage caused by the heat, it is still a good idea to have a cold dish on a hot day.

So everyone, led by Xu Dayou, found a nearby soup shop.

This shop has been open locally for more than 60 years, and the craftsmanship has been passed down to the fourth generation. The green grass jelly that He Lingchuan wants is made from jelly grass bunches. It is soaked in cold well water overnight to become jelly. When the guests want to eat, they add osmanthus honey water and a few powdered jelly. The small glutinous rice balls are half sweet and half bitter when eaten in the mouth, which relieves the anxious anger in my heart.

The most important thing is that it is cheap.

He Lingchuan killed two large bowls in a row for only four copper coins.

In the Kite Kingdom, the price of osmanthus honey alone would be more than this.

Sugar water can be sold at a high price anywhere, but only in the country of Bega, it is a condiment that ordinary people can use casually.

Rich variety and affordable prices.

Therefore, whether it is Baoshu Kingdom or Chiyan Kingdom, the streets and alleys are filled with various candy shops, many of which have become time-honored brands. Like the bowl of grass jelly that He Lingchuan is eating now, the ratio of "jelly grass" is the store's unique secret recipe. It is said that thirteen herbs are used, and even two types of nectar are used.

Simply speaking, this kind of happiness of eating sweets freely is rare in the world.

All the officials also sat down to rest and asked for sugar water to eat. One of the officers was a skunk with black body and white stripes. He didn't want grass jelly, but only two bowls of honey water.

Of course, humans are not the only ones working in the government.

In summer, it gets dark slowly. But at this moment, a few dark clouds floated in the sky, driving away the scorching sun arrogantly, creating a dark curtain.

A few flashes of lightning rolled through the clouds, and a storm was coming.

This was what He Lingchuan was waiting for. He stood up and said, "Go back and get ready to start work."

…

The wind and rain came at night, so powerful that the sky and the earth were darkened.

The whole Luocang was immersed in the sound of rustling, and there was no one on the road.

Dried herbs are most afraid of water, so no matter how busy the warehouse is, they have to stand still.

The manpower brought by He Lingchuan was evenly distributed in nearby large and small warehouses, while he and Jiao Yu led four or five people to guard the main warehouse where the prunella vulgaris was stored.

This warehouse covers an area of ​​300 square meters and is built in a square shape. The beams are extremely high and are even two feet (more than six meters) above the ground. Twenty thousand kilograms of prunella vulgaris were neatly stacked, occupying only half of the storage capacity, and the rest was empty.

Oh, by the way, there are several black jars placed in the corners of the warehouse.

He Lingchuan and Jiao Yu became gentlemen for a time.

Three hours have passed since I returned to the warehouse after eating the grass jelly.

The warehouse was always quiet, nothing strange.

It's almost midnight, the standard midnight hour.

He Lingchuan looked out of the transom window of the warehouse and saw no one.

Fortunately, Jiao Yu is also a beast that is good at ambushing. He is used to waiting and has no complaints.

A "click" sound suddenly came from below, and He Lingchuan immediately tensed up.

But he soon saw that it was just a small branch blown by the wind and fell to the ground.

A few more thunderbolts flashed between heaven and earth, and the surroundings were bright.

He Lingchuan suddenly reached out and patted the tiger's back, pointed out the window, and said hurriedly: "Look!"

Jiao Yu turned around, and his hair exploded:

There seemed to be a huge monster outside the opposite window. It was so dark that the outline could not be seen, but at least it was as tall as the medicine warehouse.

If it weren't for the lightning that happened to illuminate the sky, I'm afraid no one would notice such a thing appearing in the dark rainy night.

Then, this window went dark.

"Let's go!"

Sure enough, the plan was not as fast as the change. He Lingchuan originally thought that the monster would emerge from the underground of the warehouse, but he didn't expect it to appear directly outside the warehouse.

Although the medicine warehouse is spacious, the thing outside is so big that you can't squeeze in at all!

Fortunately, he still has a plan B, and he turned around and jumped out of the small window opposite.

Jiao Yu followed closely.

For the officials and monsters guarding other medicine warehouses around, this rainy night was long and boring.

Xu Dayou yawned for the tenth time and wiped away the tears from his eyes, but saw that General Ling next to him was still concentrating, staring at the medicine warehouse opposite without blinking.

These monsters have great energy, which ordinary humans can't match.

The scenery outside the window is extremely monotonous, just the unchanging heavy rain and still life.

Hmm?

There is something wrong with the medicine warehouse opposite, as if there is a huge black shadow behind it.

However, the lightning flashed by, and the outside fell into darkness again.

What is that?

Xu Dayou thought he was dazzled and rubbed his eyes. When the next lightning flashed, he saw that the medicine warehouse was still in the same place, and nothing around him had changed.

The huge black shadow also disappeared.

Is it really an illusion?

But at this moment, Jiao Yu suddenly jumped out from behind the medicine warehouse, accompanied by a long roar: "Shoot arrows at the medicine warehouse!"

The tiger roar penetrated the rainy night, like a thunder in everyone's ears.

The surrounding medicine warehouses opened one after another, and everyone ran out with bows and crossbows, raising their hands to shoot arrows!

A long rope was tied behind each arrow.

Although no other suspicious people were seen, they still did it after Jiao Yu gave an order.

The wind-drilling beast also broke open the door of the hiding place and jumped out like an arrow.

This ten-foot distance is just two steps for them.

The wind-drilling beast lowered its head and slammed its spiral horns into the outer wall of the medicine warehouse like a bull butting a person!

Almost at the same time, everyone's arrows flew and hit the medicine warehouse as well.

Such a big target, even He Lingchuan, who just started to learn archery a few months ago, could not miss.

A strange scene appeared:

Although the arrows hit, they all slipped off, and none of them were nailed into the wall.

Even the sharp horns of the two wind-drilling beasts did not pierce the wall, but only left a few deep scratches and three crisp "dong dong" sounds.

This kind of sound shows that it is not only very hard, but also hollow!

The two wind-drilling beast guards staggered two steps and shook their heads, obviously dizzy from the recoil.

Only the sharp horns of General Ling penetrated half a finger deep, but it seemed that it had not pierced the flesh. With just this one blow, it could have knocked the giant elephant away, but the medicine warehouse was unmoved.

It had to try hard to pull out the sharp horns and shook its head.

It was a little dizzy from the collision.

Now everyone saw the weirdness.

The medicine warehouse was obviously made of wood, how could it be so strong?

Even if this kind of warehouse usually has some talismans, it is waterproof, fireproof and mothproof, which should not be related to solidity.

The worst thing is that after this round of attack, the medicine warehouse actually sank quickly.

Yes, sinking to the ground.

If left alone, it will sink completely into the ground in three or five breaths at most!

This thing can actually run so fast?

Fortunately, when General Ling rushed up to confront him, he roared: "Set up the formation, set up the formation quickly!"

As soon as the voice fell, the official badge on Jiao Yu's neck began to glow.

With the Xia Ku herb warehouse as the center, seven places within a radius of twenty feet lit up with a faint yellow light, which was the formation talisman buried underground starting to take effect.

In front of each formation talisman stood an official holding a sharp blade to protect him.

The ground did not seem to have changed significantly, it was still a muddy ground, and the mud and water splashed as people ran, stepping out deep and shallow pits, but the sinking momentum of the medicine warehouse suddenly stopped.

This is one of the formations that the Beijia Kingdom used widely in wars-

Escape Techniques Prohibition.

It is usually used in city defense battles and positional battles to prohibit the enemy's earth escape and water escape techniques to prevent them from sneaking into their own territory to cause damage. It is a very practical means.

After all, the methods and talents of monsters are really varied.
