Chapter 34 Threat
For a moment, we didn't know what to do.
At the same time, the little mice were slowly approaching.
They look cautious, as if they are afraid of something.
I decided to give it a try.
I couldn't tell what they were afraid of. Were they afraid that the golden-haired rat would eat them if I let it out, or were they afraid that I would hurt the golden-haired rat?
I tried to open the iron cage containing the golden-haired rat with my hands, but this was just a trick because I couldn't open the iron cage at all.
But this made me understand that those little mice were indeed afraid that the big golden-haired rat would be released.
As soon as I approached the big iron cage, the little mice started to retreat, squeaking and with looks of fear on their faces.
The corners of my mouth curled up, this is great.
As long as I can lift the big golden-haired rat and throw the iron cage into the hall downstairs, the big rat will probably be scared.
I didn’t think too much at the time, I just wanted to lift up the iron cage.
The golden rat is indeed quite heavy, about the same weight as a Labrador.
Fortunately, I did a lot of work in the village when I was a child, so I got some training and I am stronger than the average city guy.
I lifted the big iron cage with both hands and was about to walk down when Dong Jing shouted.
"Wen Jie, be careful with your hands!"
As soon as Dong Jing finished speaking, my right hand was bitten.
In an instant, blood gushed out.
That kind of pain is really beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
It felt like a steel pipe was inserted directly into my hand, and I broke out in a cold sweat.
"Wen Jie!"
My brain suddenly stopped working, and all my attention was focused on my right hand.
My ears also started to buzz and I could no longer hear any sounds from the outside world.
I also had hallucinations and saw countless little mice running towards me.
I don't know how long it took, but I slowly regained some consciousness.
My nose was full of herbal aroma. I looked back and found that Dong Jing had burned some herbs and applied them on my wound.
At this time, the big golden-haired rat had been thrown aside along with the iron cage.
Dong Jing's expression was a little serious. She looked at me and no longer looked as disgusted as before.
"What's wrong with you?" I looked at her a little confused.
"You..." Dong Jing looked at me, then looked at my wound, with a worried look on his face.
I also followed his gaze and looked at my wound, which had begun to turn black.
My heart started pounding. Oops, I looked poisoned.
But my heart was pounding not because I was afraid, but because the venom directly entered my blood, making me feel excited all over.
"Wen Jie! Wen Jie? Are you feeling better now?"
Dong Jing held my face, but I saw that everything in front of me was red.
I seemed to have lost my ability to speak, making it impossible for me to speak at all.
I was lying on the ground alone, and Dong Jing lit some incense near me. After the little mice smelled the incense, they all left.
Dong Jing left only after seeing that I was safe.
Not long after, my cousin followed Dong Jing up.
"What happened?" My cousin looked worried.
Dong Jing explained the situation to him, and then his cousin slapped his head.
"I was wondering why this mouse is golden! There must be something fishy going on!"
I didn’t understand what my cousin said, so I could only turn my head to look at the big rat.
At this time, the mouse is no longer golden.
At a speed visible to the naked eye, I watched the color of the golden-haired rat's body slowly turn gray.
Why is this?
"This child is doomed. His health is going to break down."
My cousin stomped his feet in anger and reached out to pick up the iron cage.
Dong Jing took out a pill from his arms and stuffed it into my mouth.
The pill melted in my mouth, and a warm current instantly flowed from my dantian to my whole body.
Soon, I felt comfortable all over.
"This pill can keep you going for a while. Come down and help me first, and I'll think of a solution later."
When I saw that my cousin and Dong Jing had particularly serious expressions, I knew that this matter had become a big deal.
I lay in the room alone. After a while, I felt much better, so I followed my cousin and others to the first floor lobby.
I saw my cousin carrying an iron cage and walking in. When the little mice saw the iron cage, they all squeaked on the roof.
Not only that, they are running around.
This is exactly what I reasoned before, they are indeed afraid of the big rat in the iron cage.
But why this is the case is unknown.
"Everyone, get out of my way! This big rat has hurt my nephew. If you don't get out of my way and let me get what you are guarding, I will release the big rat!"
This was the first time I saw my cousin so angry. The veins on his hands were even bulging, and it was obvious that he was really angry.
The big rat stood in front of him, but was quiet and didn't make any sound.
From the look in the big rat's eyes, it could be seen that it might not be so afraid of the golden-haired rat.
But it has no choice, because as long as we take a step forward, the other little mice will move back.
Even if it is not afraid of the golden-haired rat, once the rat is released, the rat will be bitten to death by the rat this time.
Without help, it could only retreat as well.
I held a peach wood sword in my hand, and Dong Jing and I followed my cousin on his left and right.
Whenever the little mouse tried to come forward, my cousin would yell, "Get lost!"
My cousin's anger and the big rat in his hand scared all the other rats so much that they retreated faster than before.
The Rat King brought us to the small house next to the hall. He pushed the door open first and we followed behind him.
There was no light in the room , but there was a mirror where the dressing table was.
Behind the mirror, there was a faint green light.
I have seen this light.
Right at Boss Jin's house, next to the fox statue in Mrs. Jin's lounge, there is also such green light.
This mirror is different from the ones we usually see. I stood in front of the mirror and found that the inside of the mirror was like a maze, crooked and twisted. I couldn't see myself in the mirror at all.
My cousin noticed me standing motionless in front of the mirror, and he immediately became nervous.
"Wen Jie, what are you doing?!"
After experiencing entering the illusion twice, my cousin realized that my fate made it particularly easy for me to attract unclean things.
He is now working with me, and he is actually quite scared.
When he looked in the mirror, he froze and grabbed me and walked out.
"Go out and wait, don't move."
