The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Chapter 356 - Shepherd Elephant, and Dog



When they heard that the two elephants were running wild in the back house, they rushed to the east yard, where Aunt Xue was.

As soon as they arrived, they saw a pavilion on the side of the road leaning askew, with only two pillars supporting some broken walls.

The woman who led the way quickly explained, "The elephant man tied the two elephants to the pillars of the pavilion. Who would have thought that when the elephant was frightened, it pulled down the pillars?”

Their strength was really...

Everyone took a cold breath and looked at Sun Shaozong in unison.

Sun Shaozong chuckled bitterly and spread his hands, "If the cows and horses were scared, I could control them, but this elephant... I don't have much confidence.”

Upon hearing this, Feng Ziying immediately asked Xue Pan what weapons there were in this mansion and said that if he couldn't control the elephants, the Brothers would go up together and release their blood, not believing that so many people couldn't kill the two beasts!

Liu Xianglian immediately rubbed his fists and palms in response, and the others responded in varying degrees, whether true or false.

“A few weapons indeed need to be prepared, but don't rush to act recklessly.”

Sun Shaozong hurriedly reminded him, "At present, the elephants are only startled. If they see blood, they may turn even more crazy. Isn't it ridiculous for us not to die on the battlefield but to be injured by the elephants?”

Jiang Yuhan saw the situation and quickly said, "That's such a reason! If only a few things are broken, there's no need to rush to dispose of them. A frightened mule or horse will stop on its own when it's tired, and these elephants probably feel the same.”

After discussing, everyone instructed the servants who had heard the news to go and fetch all the heavy weapons with long handles. Continuing, they headed east across the courtyard to see what trouble the elephants had caused.

When they arrived nearby, they saw several women and servant girls gathered around the Moon gate, all of them looking pale.

Xue Pan greeted them from a distance, and they were so scared that they almost ran away like wolves running toward the pig. When they found out that it was the owner who had arrived, they were greeted with fear again.

Xue Pan casually pulled at a woman and anxiously asked, "What's going on inside? Have they ever hurt my mother and sister?”

The woman quickly shook her head like a rattle and said, "Madam and Lady are fine, but this elephant driver may not be able to survive.”

As she spoke, she cowered and turned her gaze to the nearby flower bed.

Only then did everyone realize that there was still a big living person lying in the flower garden!

As a living man, he was only half alive because his left arm was trampled on mud from the elbow joint to the Scapula, his right chest cavity was also sunken into a large part, and his mouth vomited more blood than he inhaled.

He saw the two elephants running towards the Madam, afraid of causing a big disaster, so he disregarded the idea and swung his whip to stop them. However, he was knocked down, kicked, and stomped on by that elephant.

The crowd trembled as they looked at his arm, which was blurry with blood and flesh and mixed with many broken bones. Even Feng Ziying's fierce demeanor quietly lowered a section.

They couldn’t be turning away now after coming all the way, right?

So he told her mother-in-law to call a doctor nearby and treat the elephant driver the best he could. Sun Shaozong then led the crowd carefully to the Moon Gate.

Woof, woof, woof, woof, woof!

As soon as they arrived, they heard the sound of barking dogs coming from inside. The culprit who caused the trouble was alive and well!

Bang!

Sun Shaozong was about to poke his head in and look inside when he heard a crisp sound, like a gong knocking on the wall.

Everyone followed the sound and saw a washbasin-sized lump bulging up on the left wall!

“Hmm…”

Sun Shaozong analyzed and said, "It's the sound of kicking something against the wall.”

Actually, it would be better not to analyze. Sun Shaozong’s analysis made Jiang Yuhuan even more hesitant. His original intention was to follow in with a bluff and never take the initiative to venture into danger.

But now, at first glance, these elephants even have long-range attack methods!

If he followed in and accidentally got a punch...

Jiang Yuhan didn’t think his head was harder than that stone wall!

“Mother! I've come to save you!”

Xue Pan's eyes immediately turned red, and with a roar, he wanted to rush in. However, Sun Shaozong grabbed him with his backhand and forcefully pulled him back behind him, then carefully scanned the inside with his head.

He saw a mess in that courtyard, not to mention a flower bed. Even the pomegranate tree the size of its fist was knocked down by the elephants!

Fortunately, the room was quite tidy, except for the broken railing under the porch in the main room and half a window in the west wing.

And those two elephants were dragging long iron chains and at this moment... They were being chased by a pug!

A pug the size of a cat, chasing two incredibly destructive elephants, ran wildly around the yard. Whenever anyone dared to stop them, they immediately jumped up and barked fiercely.

This scene really made them speechless!

It was like humans being chased by mice.

Well, it seemed that many people were afraid of mice. Thinking about it so much, it was not surprising to see elephants who were afraid of pugs.

At this moment, Xue Pan also leaned out from behind and couldn't help but be stunned by this scene. After a while, he cursed, "This dog is so f*cking bold.”

“Those two elephants are clearly tired.”

Sun Shaozong pulled him back out the door and whispered, "All you need to do is find a way to distract that dog and don't suddenly provoke him again. It may stop by itself.”

“Second Brother, you have great ideas!”

Xue Pan was immediately overjoyed upon hearing this, and without thinking about it, he pointed his head toward the hall and shouted, "Mother, call out your dog quickly; don't let it drive the elephant around again.”

Damn!

This guy was really not afraid to provoke the elephant!

Sun Shaozong's heart tightened and he quickly looked into the situation inside. Fortunately, the two elephants were only focused on running and didn’t pay attention to their movement.

At the same time, he heard Aunt Aunt Xue's trembling call, "Le Le is good; come to me quickly!"

The call was effective. The pug glanced into the room and decisively... Circled the yard, then drove one of the elephants towards the main room!

What the~

Does this little thing have a Herding dog gene?!

No wonder those two elephants didn't go anywhere else and instead went to this east courtyard to do wild things. It turned out that they had been driven by the dog all the way!

Xue Pan was dumbfounded and quickly shook Sun Shaozong's shoulder. He stammered nervously, "Second... Second Brother, what should we do?”

A few screams of women could be heard in the hall, but the dog barked even more joyfully. If an elephant were to break in, no one could guarantee that anything unexpected would happen!

Sun Shaozong gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, lifted his arm to shake off Xue Pan, and then chased after him with a sprint speed of 100 meters!
