Chapter 564 Strange White Rat!

"Haha, I caught the mouse!" Just as they were intoxicated by the beautiful scenery in the distance, the laughter of children came from the field, and the smoke rose from the field.

"I didn't expect these children to come earlier." Xu Bing said in surprise.

"As soon as the rice was harvested, they had a great time catching eels and digging out loaches. I think the eels and loaches have almost caused trouble, and now they are causing trouble for voles." Xu Ling is too familiar with these little kids. , they often did this when they were children.

"Then what are you waiting for? let's go!", Elena ran forward excitedly, like a child.

When they came to the ridge in the middle of the field, several children nearby greeted Xu Ling immediately when they saw Xu Ling. The uncle and aunt called him more affectionately than anyone else.The girls were embarrassed, Xu Ling smiled and said that he wanted to beat them up, although he knew it was a joke, but they still ran away quickly!

"These kids are really amazing! Brother, look here, there are several holes, and it seems that rice can be seen." Xu Bing looked left and right, and in the dark hole, it seemed that he could see a series of paddy.This is the most hated thing about field mice. Sometimes a nest of mice can steal hundreds of catties of food.

When he was on the production team, Grandpa Xu Ling often took the young adults who had finished harvesting the rice to dig the fields.Of course, this is all when the production team is free after paying the national public rations.This is an additional benefit. In times of famine, this little food may be enough to save your life!I heard that more than 1000 kilograms were dug out in one year. You can imagine how powerful these guys are!
Snakes are known as the nemesis of voles, but there are frequent human activities here, and some are scared away.

"Dig? Fill water or smoke?" Yi Lianna was eager to try, Bai Xue and Liu Yuehan had never experienced it before, and their eyes lit up.

"Once you dig, the field ridge will be destroyed, but if you don't dig it out, you can't get out the food. It's best to find the location of their nest and dig in directly, and try not to dig the field ridge into tatters." Yu Ying and Xu Bing did it at home when they were young. I have done farm work and know how to do it.

"Actually, this vole nest is easy to find. Have you seen it here? There are mouse holes nearby, but there are none here. Moreover, the soil is dry and the grass has died early, which means that their roots inside are broken and the soil is not moist enough.", Xu Ling Pointing to a field several meters wide, he said to everyone.

A few girls saw that this was really the case.What makes Xu Ling frown is that with this digging, it is estimated that the upper and lower boundaries of the field will be lost!Next year, it may collapse as soon as the water is stored.Looking at the paddy fields bordering the vegetable fields above, Xu Ling felt that it would be better to dig up there, and there were more rats there.There is less water in the vegetable field, and it is better for mice to make nests.

"Let's go up there. If we dig here, it will collapse next year. Those bastards also know the consequences, so you see, they just dug a little bit, and then smoked it out, letting cats and dogs chase and play.", Xu Ling Pointing to the children who were having fun playing not far away, he said.

"Then let's go to the top. It's okay to dig there. At most, we can fill it back with soil." Yu Ying took the lead and walked up.

Looking here, the girls found that just like what Xu Ling said, there are more mouse holes, but many of them have been smoked by children.

Xu Ling searched for a while, and finally found a big mouse nest!Good guy, there are at least fifty or sixty mice living separately in small holes that share the same hall, and the rice in the hall is also scary!

"Maozi, Lizi, gather everyone's cats and dogs and wait here." Xu Ling shouted to the two older children.

"Third Uncle, have you found a big mouse nest?" These children know the situation clearly.

For a while, chickens flew and dogs jumped and cats meowed in the rice field. It was because those children hugged the disobedient cats and dogs and came to Xuling.However, the girls laughed. Every time they heard a child called Uncle Xu Ling, they found it very interesting.

Xu Ling was helpless, this was like this in rural areas, the seniority was too high!In other words, his ancestors got married late. Generation after generation, even if the ancestors are the same person, his generation will be several generations later than others!
Looking at the dozen or so children standing around him either pulling the dog's tail, or holding the dog's ears, or hugging the cat, Xu Ling felt like a boy scout captain!
"Do you want to dig, or watch me do it?" Xu Ling asked a few girls first.

"You first, let's have a good time when it's almost here." Xu Bing said, looking at the mouse hole with his eyes shining.

Xu Ling stopped talking, picked up the hoe, and started digging at a wall covered with thorns.Maybe it's these seemingly small, but thorny thorns that keep these children away from the smoke here.

After digging a few times, everyone saw that there were no mouse holes, and suddenly a lot of rice stalks and leftover rice husks appeared.

"Oh!", the children were the most excited, their eyes widened, for fear that the mouse would come out and escape.

The excavation was more than one meter deep and half a meter wide. Xu Ling was sweating profusely in his vest.According to the situation from the mental induction, there are only a few tens of centimeters left to dig into the rat's storage hall.

After digging a few more times, Xu Ling handed the hoe to Yu Ying. This girl had already said this several times.

With only two strokes, Yu Ying's hoe hollowed out, first a small hole was formed, and after a few strokes, the ground suddenly collapsed, and a large cave hall appeared!

"Ah!" Everyone was a little surprised and a little moved.Because this can stand a half-sized child's hole is full of rice!

"Quick! The mouse is out!", a child shouted, and then Bai Xue and Liu Yuehan screamed, one jumped on Xu Ling's back, and the other was hugged by Xu Ling!
Little gray mice and big mice ran around on the ground, and dogs barked, cats roared, and children shouted and killed all of a sudden!
"Haha, I've hit a big mouse! Let my dad make rat meat hot pot!", Li Zi held a fat mouse in his hand, opened his mouth wide, and laughed!

"Brother Lizi, you are a bad guy. I hit him first so you couldn't run fast. You are a bad guy!" A four or five-year-old kid with runny nose and dirt all over his body ignored Lizi and started to attack Lizi.

"Whoever hits it will own it! Now, I'll help you hit a big one! Quick, don't run away!" Suddenly, he saw a big squirrel running towards Da Zhuang chasing it!
Just like that, except for Bai Xue and Liu Yuehan, everyone else came out with their hands and feet. Elena and the others were not afraid. They used small sticks to smash them randomly, and they actually hit two!

For half an hour, with the joint efforts of cats, dogs and humans, the litter of mice was probably wiped out.Except for a few that fled to the small hole next to it.

"It's all good, tell your family after you go back, each of you will get a fish at the restaurant!", Xu Ling patted Liu Yuehan and Bai Xue's buttocks, making them embarrassed, and blushed down to the ground.

"Oh yes! Long live the third uncle!" As soon as he finished speaking, the group of children ran away and disappeared. Of course, a few fat mice were also taken away!
"Hey, that's disgusting! Rats eat it too!" Bai Xue and Xu Bing felt a little nauseous just thinking about it, but Yue Han didn't seem to have any reaction.
