Village Chief Brandon pointed to the sign on the map and explained the situation of the village to everyone.

"There are three farms around the village. To the southwest is Taylor Farm, which mainly grows grains and other crops. When you come, you should have passed through that area; to the southeast is Hunter Farm, which mainly focuses on breeding; to the north is Loander Farm, which plants many kinds of grapes and also builds a winery.

“With the village as the center, this area is all our entrusted scope.”

He gestured a big circle on the map and basically drew all the facilities on the map inside the circle.

Afterwards, he pointed to the signs on the map one by one and introduced the facilities in the village to everyone.

Although this village is small, it has all kinds of infrastructure, including supermarkets, clinics, bars, etc.

After roughly introducing the structure of the village, the village chief explained the information about the rat disease.

"This mouse disease broke out suddenly. We also used many methods to deal with it, but it was not effective. The number of mice was too large, and even cats and dogs were scared and dared not catch them. Although we could kill some of them, compared to their total amount, it was just a drop in the bucket.

"I have tried all the old methods. I poured water into the hole, smoked smoke, put rat poison, and put mouse clips, but it was useless. Those mice did not eat rat poison, and would bypass the mouse clips. When they made a hole, they dug a bunch of outlets like rabbits, and they could not get rid of them even if they didn't eat them!"

Several players looked at each other. The equipment they got was nothing more than the above-mentioned mouse-catching methods. As a result, these are useless now... Well, the content of the emergency assault on the road is basically useless.

On the other hand, the village chief continued to add.

"Those mice don't come out during the day, and run around in the village at night, even people dare to bite them. You should have seen injuries on the villagers on the road, right? Those were bitten by mice while sleeping! Now everyone is tormented by these mice. Please deal with these mice as soon as possible!"

Liu Mengze answered.

"It sounds like the situation is serious. But please rest assured that we will definitely give you a satisfactory result."

The village chief nodded with satisfaction: "The villagers here all know your affairs, and they will cooperate with your mouse removal work."

The players discussed the details again and finally decided to place various mouse-catching equipment and potions everywhere first - even if it was just a look, otherwise their professionalism would definitely be questioned.

They set out in the morning, and it was not yet lunch time. After several people discussed it, they decided to use this time to take a walk around the village first, investigate the situation in the village, and then go to various farms in the afternoon.

After discussing the details, the village chief called out a brown-haired young man.

"This is my son, David. He will serve as your guide in the next few days. If anything is done, you can be so kind, just discuss it with him."

The young man, who looked in his twenties, showed a cheerful smile and waved to the players. After the two sides briefly introduced themselves to each other, everyone no longer wasted their time and prepared to start the village investigation.

——

Just like what the village chief said, the villagers did not hinder their actions and were even willing to let them enter the courtyard to place equipment.

However, Yu Yueming always felt that this was not so much a positive cooperation but a compromise of obeying instructions. He could clearly feel that these residents did not welcome them, nor did they at all.

Although it was hidden very well on the surface, he seemed to be able to smell the disgust that spreads out from these residents. Under the disgust, there was a faint hint of hostility and fear.

This is strange. If only some people don’t welcome them, it’s okay. He understands that some people don’t like strangers to approach their private spheres, but it’s too unreasonable for almost everyone to do this.

They are here to help the villagers solve the problem of rats. At this time, shouldn’t the villagers welcome them too much?

Suddenly, his ears moved and he heard extremely slight footsteps.

It was not humans, but the footsteps of animals, and it sounded very familiar...

Yu Yueming turned his head and saw a group of dogs approaching them in the distance.

These dogs are basically large dogs, and only a few are medium-sized dogs. They have the characteristics of dogs such as pie, Tosa, and bullfighting, and look particularly fierce.

At this time, they were slowly paced, approaching in the direction where Yu Yueming and others were.

Although they looked very calm, Yu Yueming could see from their subtle body language that the group of dogs were planning to attack him.

Good guy, the mouse didn't dare to catch it, but it was very active. Yu Yueming stood up unhappily, pressed his ears in front of him, showed a threatening expression, and let out a low roar to warn the other party.

The other players were originally working in the yard next to them, but when they heard the movement, they quickly cast their sight.

Seeing the aggressive group of dogs, Li Si seemed to faint in the next second. The other two immediately searched for the toolbox to find available weapons. David disappeared at some point, and did not know if he saw that the situation was not good, so he hid first.

The dogs didn't seem to be trying to retreat and continued to surround them.

Yu Yueming noticed that not only did the owner of this house not come to help, but also pulled the window inside the house and closed it, and it seemed that he did not intend to interfere in this matter at all.

Are the people in this village too cold? Yu Yueming sighed in his heart and looked at the group of dogs in front of him.

There are more than a dozen of these dogs, which look quite scary. But after being surrounded by wolves in the woods, Yu Yueming's heart was not fluctuating, and he even had the leisure to observe some details.

Although there is no collar, the fur of this group of dogs is very clean and has a human smell. It should be raised by people here.

Their hostility is not only directed at themselves, but also at their teammates in the courtyard next to them.

How can domestic dogs be so hostile to people? Are they just targeting strangers? Or are they specially trained to do this?

Yu Yueming walked slowly towards the dog group while thinking about the details.

Because of the wind direction, the dogs could not smell Yu Yueming's scent, could not detect his abnormality, and still kept making low roars.

Yu Yueming remained indifferent and stared at the leader in the group.

When he was still five or six meters away, he suddenly burst out and rushed towards the other side!

The leader of the dog group was a big brown dog with knotted muscles. Its reaction was also very fast, but in Yu Yueming's opinion, it was too slow. In just a moment, Yu Yueming rushed to it and directly pressed it to the ground with the help of the momentum.

Immediately afterwards, he did not give the dog any chance to react. He bit its neck hard, lifted it up, and swung it hard in the air for a few times, and then threw it towards the group of dogs as a shot put!

The head dog who was smashed to the ground was very conscious of the current affairs and immediately made a whimpering sound of the loser begging for mercy. The other dogs may have seen the miserable appearance of the leader, or they may have finally sensed some unusual aura from Yu Yueming, and they all shrank, clamped their tails, begged for mercy and retreated.
