Zhengjiazhuang to the west, to the north are hundreds of miles of mountains and forests, into which it is very easy to get lost, deep mountains and dense forests live all kinds of poisonous snakes and beasts, especially there are some strange beasts, strange beasts can release the gas, yes, more than ten times more powerful than ordinary beasts, the territory of the beasts is extremely strong, for the creatures that invade their own territory, they tend to take the initiative to attack, and chase after them. When encountering strange beasts in the dense forest, not to mention ordinary people, those martial artists with good martial arts can only flee in the wilderness, and if they don't pay attention to it, they will be buried in the belly of the beast.

Xiao Tianlei entered the mountains and forests to hunt and gather food, but in fact, he was just walking around the periphery of the mountains and forests, and he didn't dare to enter the deeper mountains and forests, especially with a group of teenagers. Yes, Xiao Tianlei wanted to hunt the beast, but he didn't have the idea to hit the beast in the deep mountains, it was too dangerous and too far, and his preferred target was a beast in the nearby river.

Crocodile, a common beast in the rivers and rivers of Lingzhou, the crocodile appearance of this world is roughly the same as in the previous life, but the size is larger, and it is more ferocious, it is said that someone has seen a crocodile that has become a strange beast, it is twenty or thirty meters long, the tail is swept away, and the waves are dozens of meters high, and a big boat can be driven into the bottom of the river.

Of course, the existence of that kind of monster level is only a few, most of them are still ordinary crocodiles, however, even ordinary crocodiles are not easy to hunt, they are covered in solid scale armor, ordinary knives are difficult to penetrate, and their strength is comparable to that of several adults, when they attack, the action is extremely fast, and the bite force is even more terrifying, chewing hard cow bones is about the same as eating twist flowers, and crocodiles are often gathered together in groups, and they will not be too far away from the river, and their alertness is not low, and they immediately burrow into the water when they encounter danger.

After observing the distribution and habits of crocodiles for a while, and doing some preliminary preparations, Xiao Tianlei's first hunting operation began.

"Brother Lei! Brother Lei! ”

Early this morning, Xiao Tianlei's family was still having breakfast, and they saw a person shouting loudly outside the fence wall, and the person who came was a little friend who had played with Xiao Tianlei and Xiao Tianfu since childhood, Zheng Biao, the son of Zheng Baihu in Zhengjiazhuang. A few days ago, I heard Xiao Tianlei say that he wanted to hunt big crocodiles, Zheng Biao was excited, and came to call Xiao Tianlei early.

"Brother, hurry up!"

Xiao Tianfu also couldn't wait, while urging, he drank a bowl of gruel with a few sips, and took the equipment to enter the mountain, a wooden stick, a firewood knife, and a homemade hunting bow, Xiao Tianlei also carried a homemade throwing gun, the tip of the spear was sharpened with the tip of a sword picked up, and the body of the spear was made of a kind of green oka wood on the mountain, which was processed by baking and soaking in oil, which was strong and tough.

"Fu Wazi, Lei Wazi, make it more detailed and come back early." Jiang told as usual that she didn't know that her son was going to do a dangerous thing today.

"I know."

In response, the two brothers went out and had a round with Zheng Biao.

"Brother Lei, you see, Russia also brought a bow and arrow, which was found in the Russian treasury!" Zheng Biao offered a treasure as if he was going up from his shoulder to get a bow and arrow.

"This bow is a little weak, it's not very useful." Xiao Tianlei shook his head slightly.

Against crocodiles, bows and arrows are indeed good weapons, but they are just ordinary bows, and the strength is simply not enough. It is best to use the kind of strong bow used by military generals, with hundreds of thousands of catties of strength, but the strong bow is not so easy to get, and ordinary people can't pull that kind of strong bow.

"Useless?! So how do you kill a crocodile? ”

"With this gun."

"How?" Zheng Biao was skeptical.

"You'll know when the time comes."

"Brother Russia said it, then it will definitely be done." Xiao Tianfu was full of confidence, if it weren't for Xiao Tianlei not allowing him to use his qi in front of people, he felt that he could fight with the crocodile for 300 rounds.

While the three of them were talking, they walked to the settlement area of the Shanyue people in the north of Zhengjiazhuang, and several dark-skinned teenagers joined the team one after another, it was Xiao Tianlei's Shanyue cousins, each with some ropes, wooden sticks, hunting bows, and their clothes were relatively tattered, but their bodies were very strong and their eyes were bright, unlike most other Shanyue people, with vegetables on their faces.

The group left the village and just crossed the stone bridge of the small river at the entrance of the village, when a sudden shout came from behind: "Wait for me, wait for me!" I saw a round-faced young man with a young face rushing over, it was Xiao Tianlei's cousin Xiao Tianbao, and he was carrying a schoolbag.

"Bao Wa'er, your baby is skipping school again, it's strange if your aunt doesn't beat your ass!" Zheng Biao laughed.

"Russian Niang is reluctant to beat me." Xiao Tianbao didn't care, his aunt was very doting on him, and the whole village knew it, but Xiao Tianbao's father Xiao Qingyun was the only bachelor in the Xiao family, but he was generally not at home, and it was common for scholars in this world to go out to study and socialize, and the cost was also large, so Xiao Tianbao had no control, often skipped school, and followed Xiao Tianlei and his gang.

"Bao Wa'er, aren't you afraid that Grandpa will hit your palm?" Xiao Tianfu kindly reminded Xiao Tianbao that his grandfather was teaching in the village school, and he was very strict with schoolchildren.

"No matter, no matter what, Russia is going to fight crocodiles all the way today, and it's not fun to study at all! Russia also brought a knife today! Xiao Tianbao said, taking out a kitchen knife from his schoolbag.

"Hahaha!"

The teenagers couldn't help laughing, Xiao Tianbao was a little depressed, put away the kitchen knife stupidly, and then found something new, and shouted: "Brother Biao, you pinch the bow so comfortably, show it to Russia!" ”

Zheng Biao was not stingy, and took the bow to Xiao Tianbao.

Talking and laughing along the way, along the river, go to a crocodile habitat that Xiao Tianlei had found in advance.

People living in Lingzhou have long been hunting crocodiles, in order to obtain crocodile skins, but generally some warriors hunt them, and ordinary people dare not provoke this kind of fierce beasts in the river.

"Lots of crocodiles! It's scary! Xiao Tianbao exclaimed in a low voice, pointing to a beach where a group of crocodiles were basking in the sun.

All the teenagers bowed down, their bodies hidden in the weeds, and looked at them from afar.

"Brother Lei, what the hell?"

Xiao Tianlei didn't answer, his eyes searched on the river beach, found a crocodile that didn't seem to be very social, gestured a few gestures, and asked the others to wait in place, Xiao Tianlei took advantage of the cover of weeds, quietly approached, and when he reached a distance of about 20 meters, Xiao Tianlei raised the homemade throwing gun over his shoulder, adjusted his posture, and concentrated the strength of his legs and waist on his arms.

When hunting, Xiao Tianlei generally uses the Ice Shooter template, the ultra-long-range vision is very useful, because it is often used, the Ice Shooter template, has saved a lot of game gold, of course Xiao Tianlei wants to buy equipment, but he can't call up the equipment purchase page.

Even if there is no bow and arrow, the skills of the ice shooter can also play some role, at this time, some virtual arcs appeared in Xiao Tianlei's eyes, which was the flight trajectory after the shooting of the gun, with the movement of the crocodile, the wind and other factors, the trajectory was constantly corrected, this is the ice shooter's shooter focus skill comes into play.

Xiao Tianlei's strength was insufficient, so he could only make up for it with his qi, and his qi ran to his arm, seeing the opportunity, he suddenly threw it with all his strength, and with a hiss, the gun flew out with a sharp sound of cutting through the air.

The teenagers in the rear paid attention to Xiao Tianlei's every move, and when they saw the spear flying out, their eyes also moved, but they couldn't keep up at all, only saw a phantom, the spear had accurately pierced into the eye socket of the crocodile, the crocodile opened its mouth wide and roared silently, struggled a few times, and its body slapped the ground with a ping sound, and then it lost all its strength and stopped moving, and the other crocodiles nearby were frightened and quickly retreated into the water.

"That's it?!"

"Seems to be."

"Brother Lei, that's good...... Good...... What's the cow that Brother Lei said? ”

"Awesome!"

"Yes, it's awesome!"

"Russia didn't see it clearly, the crocodile was finished, so it didn't matter."

"Then you go and give it a try."

"When Russia learns this trick, I'll shoot one at once."

When the teenagers were discussing, Xiao Tianlei was observing the crocodile, making sure that the crocodile was really dead, and beckoned to a few people behind, a group of teenagers stepped forward, Xiao Tianlei took the rope, pulled it into a set, and carefully approached the crocodile corpse, the other crocodiles would not go ashore for a while, and quickly used a rope to cover the sharp teeth in the crocodile's mouth, and then, a group of teenagers worked together to pull the crocodile corpse away from the shore.

For Xiao Tianlei, it is not difficult to hunt crocodiles, but it is more troublesome to transport the crocodiles back, this crocodile is only average in size, but it also has three or four hundred catties.

It is not wise to divide and dispose of crocodiles in the wild, the smell of blood may attract some other predators, and skinning crocodiles is also a technical job, which requires a special person to do it, and the complete crocodile skin is valuable.

Xiao Tianlei thought of hunting crocodiles, one factor is also to make some money, about the idea of making money, he has thought a lot over the years, but if you really want to achieve it, you must first wait until you have a certain strength, and you must have some capital, this is the case in business, the first pot of gold is often the most difficult to earn.

The crocodile corpse is heavy, fortunately, there are many teenagers, their bodies are strong, and they all have some strength, and they use some ropes to tie up the crocodile corpse, use sticks to make flat burdens, and carry them together to move forward slowly, and share the burden, each person is only a few dozen catties, which can bear it, Xiao Tianbao gave a single out, and he had to drag the crocodile tail alive or dead. There was no road here, which added a lot of difficulty to the transportation, so I had to walk a distance, rest for a while, and toss for more than an hour, and finally got the crocodile onto a dirt road.

"Hey, hey......"

It was about the excitement of hunting crocodiles, and no one complained that they were tired, shouting and walking towards Zhengjiazhuang.

When they arrived at the river outside the village, a woman with a wooden basin came to meet her, and when she saw a group of boys carrying a crocodile, she was stunned, let out an exclamation, and ran away with the basin.

"Zheng San'er and his aunt were so frightened that their faces turned blue! Ha ha! Zheng Biao is a bear child, frightened that the woman is still his relative, he does not feel unhappy at all, but feels very happy, a group of children laughed, carried the crocodile to the village, along the way to watch the villagers after seeing the crocodile all kinds of strange behavior.

The villagers were no stranger to the strange behavior of Xiao Tianlei and his group of wild children, but they were still frightened when they saw a few boys lifting a big crocodile, and the originally peaceful village became noisy, with chickens flying and dogs jumping.

The news in the village spread very quickly, and after a while, many people knew that the wild boys in the village had brought a big crocodile back.

By the time the crocodile was carried to the courtyard of Dr. Jiang's house, a large group of onlookers had already come, most of whom did not dare to approach, as if they were afraid that the crocodile would come back to life, and pointed at the crocodile.

Xiao Tianlei and his gang hunted a crocodile, Jiang Witch Doctor was not very surprised, Jiang Witch Doctor had already known from Xiao Tianlei's mother Jiang Shi, Xiao Tianlei was born with a vision, originally Shanyue people have always believed in various gods, the two are engaged in special professions, and secretly think that Xiao Tianlei may be a god in the sky, yes, Jiang Witch Doctor did not ask much.

Doctor Jiang Wu found someone to call the butcher in the village to disembowel, skin and debone the crocodile, the scene was a commotion, and the families of the young people who participated in the crocodile hunt arrived one after another.

Xiao Qinghe and his wife were also shocked when they learned that their son had beaten a predator, for fear that their son would be injured, so they left the guy in their hands and hurried over. Zheng Biao was bragging there, Xiao Tianbao was grabbed by his mother's ears, and the family members of several Shanyue cousins were happy, looking at the pieces of crocodile meat, and others told some old stories about crocodiles, gossiping, and so on.

In the end, except for the crocodile meat as the butcher's reward, a few boys, each of whom shared dozens of catties of crocodile meat, as for whether to exchange it for other things or eat it at home, Xiao Tianlei would not ask.

Except for the wound on the eye, the crocodile did not have a single wound on the body, and the butcher praised it vigorously when he peeled the skin, and the butcher's craftsmanship was not bad, and the crocodile skin peeled off was in excellent condition, and it was sold in the city, at least for a hundred taels of silver, but it depended on who sold it. If it is taken by a child, even if it is not deceived, the price will be reduced. Judging from some of the things that Xiao Tianlei has heard, the merchants in this world have some background in doing business, clan gangs, local tyrants and bullies, often monopolize a certain industry in a place, and things like shopkeepers bullying customers are not uncommon, such as Shanyue people going to sell things and being pitted, it is not uncommon.

However, Xiao Tianlei had already thought about it, the crocodile skin was sold directly to the Zheng family, and the Zheng family ran some business, so it should not be too much of a loss to let Zheng Biao, the son of Zheng Baihu, sell the crocodile skin.

There was nothing wrong with the matter, Zheng Biao took the crocodile skin back, and the next day, he sent thirty-five taels of silver. For Xiao Tianlei's family, it can be regarded as a huge amount of money, and an ordinary farmer's family spends only a few taels a year.

After getting the money, Xiao Tianlei went straight to the blacksmith shop in the village, bought several good waist knives and some daggers in one go, and distributed some of the remaining silver to his friends, leaving only a part for himself, and giving a part to the Jiang family when he went home.

The first crocodile hunt was successfully completed, and since then, it can be regarded as a financial road, and I can slightly improve my family situation and a few friends. It's just that what I didn't expect was that the news of a few people hunting crocodiles spread, which attracted some challenges from teenagers from other villages.
