Chapter 45: Swamps and Wetlands

In addition to forests and grasslands, most of the area in Area C is lakes and wetlands, and the independent division is based on companies, starting from the boundary line between Area B and Area C, advancing in parallel, and keeping a march diary.

The company led by Yao Jianjun discovered a city, which was a stone city built along the mountain, with a circle of stone walls three meters high on the periphery, centered on a hill, expanding outward in a circle, with a radius of three kilometers, with eight entrances and exits, and the inner city was a circle of stone walls five meters high, four city gates, and the top of the hill was the castle where the chief lived. There are more than a dozen villages around the city, and judging by their architectural style, it should be a primitive tribe.

At the edge of the forest, thirty kilometers from the city, Yao Jianjun sent a platoon to hunt in the forest, while others made carriages out of existing materials, and ten war horses temporarily served as coolies. In the afternoon, the hunters returned, filled three wagons, one black bear, two wild hunts, twelve flower deer, dozens of hares and pheasants, and several other wagons filled with various living materials, after walking forward for two hours, they came to a village that looked larger, just arrived at the entrance of the village, the people in the village ran out, onlookers watched this group of uninvited guests, after a short communication, after clearing the language barrier, Yao Jianjun and others learned about the general situation of the village and the stone town. There are more than 300 households in the village, more than 2,000 people, hunting for a living, also planting rice, raising several kinds of livestock, the currency here is a thumb-sized iron knife coin, there are small holes can be worn to make it easy to carry, a knife coin can be sold for a pound of grain, can also sell some daily necessities, but the situation of bartering is still widespread.

When the sky darkened, Yao Jianjun decided to stay in the village for one night, gave some of the game on the carriage to the village chief, and then took out a bag of corn seeds and two bags of flour in exchange for some knife coins, and told the village chief the planting technology and flour eating method, which surprised the village chief, and he was excited to call more than a dozen elders in the village to entertain guests from afar with the highest etiquette in their village.

The next day, the village chief took Yao Jianjun and his party into the city, and then met the king of the country. During the conversation, it was learned that there were a large number of terrifying creatures in the swamps to the west of the city, which often attacked humans and destroyed grain fields, often injuring and even killing people in the nearby villages. Yao Jianjun said that he was willing to help with this and asked them to take them to the scene to see what kind of terrifying creatures were doing it.

Half a day later, Yao Jianjun and they were taken to a rice field, waiting quietly for a few minutes, found dozens of voles scurrying in the rice field, suddenly two black shadows flashed, Yao Jianjun saw two more than one meter long animals with voles in their mouths, devouring, after a while, hundreds of such animals came out of the small river next to the rice field, hunted and killed the field of voles, and used this rice field as a hunting ground, and within ten minutes, half of this rice field was destroyed.

According to the villagers' recollections, this phenomenon has been going on for many years, and they have not been able to kill these two animals despite all their means, and they will also attack people. Yao Jianjun immediately ordered the soldiers to shoot freely and hunt the two animals.

"Bang, bang, ······"

Ten minutes later, hundreds of voles and more than 100 black guys were shot, after brain scanning analysis, it was concluded that this kind of vole meat is tender, and the fur can be used as fur raw materials, which is very valuable. The other is called the xenomorph otter, the adult body is two meters long, fish, rodents, frogs, shrimp and crabs and other food, good at swimming and diving, is a precious fur resource animal, otter liver, otter bone is a valuable Chinese medicinal material, in the interstellar also belongs to one of the key protected wild species.

The onlookers and the accompanying Kingdom soldiers were also shocked by Yao Jianjun's victory, these two animals that made them helpless were simply vulnerable to these outsiders, and they easily killed hundreds of them with unknown weapons in their hands. Yao Jianjun stayed for three days at the warm invitation of the villagers and the king, hunted down voles and xenomorph sloths in the border area of the rice paddies here, peeled off the fur completely, left otter livers and bones, and gave the meat to the villagers to eat. In this area, these two species are very fertile, so Yao Jianjun can hunt boldly without worrying about extinction.

At this time, a terrifying creature in the mouth of the villagers was found a hundred kilometers away from Stone Town······
