Report

Gary asked curiously. Don't ask so many questions. Just listen to me. If anyone asks why there's so much smoke, just tell them that I'm chasing the rats away.

Okay, no problem. Back at his house, Tangleh sorted the herbs and firewood and matched them one by one.

After the NY soldiers finished their work, Tangleh lit the herbs. Because the herbs were moist and had a lot of moisture, the incomplete burning caused more smoke. The house was filled with smoke. The people around thought that there was a fire and rushed over to put it out.

Tom quickly stopped them. Our boss is chasing the rats away. Chasing rats away? Are you sure it's not a fire? I'm sure. Hearing Tom's words, everyone was still a little worried.

A black soldier shouted into the house, "Roland, are you okay? I'm fine. I'm chasing the rats away. "Tangleh's voice came from the house," Roland, how many rats did you catch? Don't forget to treat us to roasted rats later. " Not a single one was caught. Damn rats are so damn cunning. They run so fast. Squeak, squeak, squeak. A few rats really did run out of the house. They were the size of cats and were shocking to see.

In that case, Roland, you continue to play the rat game inside. We have something to do. Hahahaha. After confirming that Tangleh was fine, the soldiers laughed and left.

After a while, Tangleh came out of the house. Tangleh's face was black and white. Seeing his brothers staring at his face, Tangleh said angrily, "What are you looking at? Haven't you seen a handsome guy before? Boss, are you really chasing rats inside? What do you think? Okay, let's not talk about these boring things. We'll go in when the smoke dissipates. " The layout of the house is okay. No one can sleep on the bed at the back. Don't worry, boss. That bed is for you. No one dares to occupy that spot.

Stop, I won't sleep on that bed either. Why don't I sleep on that bed? That bed is so nice. It's wide and big. It's much better than a hammock. I said I won't sleep on it. Since you won't sleep on it, why don't you sleep on it? Tom, I said you can't sleep on that bed. Why? It would be a waste if no one slept on that empty bed.

Heh heh heh, Tom, if you have the guts, go and sleep in that bed. When you fall asleep at night, you may hear someone shouting in your ear: This is my bed, this is … You slept in my bed. Go away. When you wake up, you won't see me. I can't promise you won't be scared half to death. When everyone heard what Tangleh said, they felt a chill run down their spines. Bruce was so scared that he quickly asked Tangleh, "Boss, your ghost stories are really scary. Ghost stories?" Oh, no, no, I never tell ghost stories. If it wasn't a ghost story, could it be real?

Nonsense, I don't even dare to sleep there. If you want to play exciting games that night, then sleep on that bed! After hearing what Tangleh said, everyone expressed that they would not go to that place to sleep.

The nights in Vietnam were very hot. After dinner, everyone lay in their hammocks to rest. After all, they had been busy the entire day, taking the plane and cleaning up. Not long after they lay down to rest, they gradually heard cursing coming from next door. At first, there were only one or two people, but as the number of people increased, the cursing became louder and louder. Eventually, it turned into screams. Aiya, what bit me? It bit me to death. It's so itchy. Heavens, this bunch of darned people. It even bit through my socks. It can even bite through my flesh while wearing socks. What kind of bug is this? It's so noisy, can't we sleep?

Why are you screaming in the middle of the night? Bruce said unhappily when he was woken up. Don't worry about it, Bruce. Go back to sleep. Those bastards won't be able to sleep tonight. Everyone, hurry up and rest. There's work to be done tomorrow. The screaming won't stop tonight. Why, Boss? Bici asked curiously. Didn't you hear those guys wailing from being bitten by the bugs? What kind of bug can bite people so badly? Bici, good question. I'll answer your question now. All of you know that I brought back a lot of grass today. These grasses are called mugwort, calamus, and lemongrass. They all have a common characteristic, which is that they can kill bugs, germs, and exorcise evil. Vietnam is a rather special place. Due to the hot and humid climate, there are many venomous snakes and insects. Apart from the common mosquitoes, there are also fleas, centipedes, hidden stingers (which are actually little black bugs), poisonous spiders, small poisonous scorpions, and other unknown venomous bugs.

It's fine in the plains, but the number of venomous bugs and snakes in the forests is 20 times higher than here. That's why I went to find herbs to kill the bugs. It's not good to use herbs that are too dry. They have to be completely wet or half-wet. It's best to use fresh herbs that have just been plucked and mixed with some hay. After burning them, due to the high humidity, thick smoke billows. Only with this smoke can we kill or chase away the venomous bugs. Didn't Bici get bitten by a rat today? These rats that bit people all had fleas on them. (It's normal for rats to have fleas when they run around.) When I saw this situation, I went to pick some herbs to kill the bugs. Otherwise, it wouldn't just be the guys next door who would be bitten tonight. I'm afraid we would be included as well.

Boss, what kind of bug do you think it was that bit them? I don't know what bug it is, but hearing them scream so miserably, it's probably not an ordinary bug. Alright, stop guessing. We'll know everything tomorrow. Hurry up and sleep. It's getting late, and we have a lot of things to do tomorrow. After saying that, Tangleh lay down to rest.

When everyone saw that Tangleh had fallen asleep, they all lay down to rest as well. They did lie down, but no one could sleep. (Including Tangleh) The hot weather was one reason, and the screaming next door was another reason. Tangleh and his companions passed the night in a daze. The next morning, when Tangleh opened the door, he found that the door to the house was filled with people. In fact, it wasn't just the door, but the entire house was filled with people.

It was estimated that all the US Army soldiers who lived in the house were here. All of this was within Tangleh's expectations. Good morning, brothers. I didn't expect you to wake up earlier than us. You can't wait to go train the monkey soldiers? One of the black soldiers didn't directly answer Tangleh's question. Roland, your room was very quiet last night. Didn't you get bitten by bugs? Bugs? What bugs? I didn't see any bugs. No, look at how badly my face has been bitten.

As soon as the black man turned around, Tangleh was shocked. Even though Tangleh was experienced and knowledgeable, he was still shocked. Half of the black man's face seemed to have a skin disease. There were so many bugs that it looked no different from a skin disease.

What's with his face? Look at me. A white soldier took off his shirt in front of Tangleh.

The front and back of this person were bitten by bugs, and they kept circling around him. It's so itchy. I couldn't sleep last night. It's so uncomfortable. You were all bitten by bugs last night? Tangleh asked. Who said no? What kind of place is this? There are so many bugs. The only place that can compare to this place is probably the garbage treatment plants in the United States.

Damn those monkeys, they actually lied to us to live in this damn place. Let's go find them. Yes, let's go find them. The soldiers stood up noisily.

Who are you going to find trouble with? Good morning, everyone. Hey, why are you so listless in the morning? Didn't you sleep well last night? Don't talk about it, Captain Carlos. We were bitten by bugs last night and couldn't rest at night. That's why we are like this this morning. Not a? A few small bugs made you like this? What a few? It's a whole bunch of bugs! Look at how badly my leg is bitten. Nonsense, he's not the only one who was bitten. We all won the lottery. Look at my hand, look at my head, look at …

Okay, okay, everyone, stop it. I didn't think it through and made you suffer. Today, today I will solve all your problems. Okay, everyone, go have breakfast and get ready. Our work is about to start. Work? What work? We are going to rest today. We didn't sleep last night. It's so uncomfortable now. Yes, yes, we are going to rest. The soldiers strongly objected and asked to rest. What's wrong with you?

We didn't come here to play. We are going to work for Uncle Tom. Uncle Tom's money doesn't grow on trees. You lazy bums, hurry up and stand up. Carlos shouted for a long time, but no one paid attention to him. Carlos had no choice but to agree to the soldiers' request. Okay, just this once. I will explain to the NY officers later.

Boss, if we don't work today, what are we going to do? Tom asked. Didn't you bring a fishing rod? We have nothing to do today. Let's go fishing. Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! A fat grass carp was thrown onto the grass on the shore. Tom, I didn't expect you to be so good. Where did you learn? Hearing Tangleh's praise, Tom said proudly. My dad taught me. He is a fishing enthusiast. When he has time, he will take me to the lake in the suburbs to fish. When he is in the mood, he will take me to the river in the forest to fish. After going there many times, I learned how to fish. Boss, there are a lot of fish here. We've been standing here for half an hour, and we've caught at least a dozen fish, and they're all very big. I have never seen anything like this.
