Doro Village is on the edge of the Hongge Forest, there are almost no rocks nearby, and the trebuchet made by Qin Feng before is not of much use.

He led the village chief of Balu and Lido to a place in the forest, which was a small pothole, covered in a layer of moss, but Qin Feng soon noticed that there were some small pieces of gravel under the moss.

The Honggo Forest, where Doro Village is located, is relatively flat, there are no mountains and hills, and it is difficult to see stones and the like, except for a few stones in the village that have been placed for an unknown number of centuries, all of which have been rounded out by children.

There are stones, which is a memorable thing for the village of Dora, so even if it is useless, Balu still remembers this place.

Qin Feng picked up a small stone, handed it to Balu, and got a positive answer, this is the kind of splash stone that Balu said.

The surface is quite smooth, and occasionally there are some sporadic silver dots embedded in it, which doesn't look magical, which makes Qin Feng look at it, it is just an ordinary stone, which can be seen everywhere on the earth.

However, even such stones are not very many, less than a few dozen pieces, Qin Feng picked them up and brought them back.

He didn't know how to use it, but Balu carefully smashed the stones with a wooden hammer and crushed them into powder. Twist a little, put it on the ground, take out a small piece of wood from the campfire, and draw close to the powder, and when you exhale, the powder immediately burns and evaporates like gunpowder, and there is almost nothing left on the ground.

This is a natural gunpowder raw material.

Qin Feng was amazed at this kind of stone powder, with this kind of splashing stone, there was no need to find any sulfur or saltpeter at all. After several experiments, Qin Feng roughly determined the mixing ratio of this kind of splashing stone and charcoal powder, and made a large wooden basin of "gunpowder".

With gunpowder but no suitable containers, Qin Feng had to use clay to fire a few small clay pots again, the same ones were black and not slippery, which made those old guys in Doluo Village laugh for a long time, this Qin knows a lot, but his hands-on ability is really not good.

Qin Feng embedded the small stones he found on the outer walls of these clay pots, making the clay pots look full of pimples and very unsightly.

The powder of "gunpowder" was carefully mixed with the fine sand from the bottom of the river and put into a clay pot, filled with leaves and compacted, and the top was sealed with mud, with only a small hole in it.

Qin Feng pounded it with the bark and twisted it into a thin rope, took out a little "gunpowder" powder and mixed it with some water, soaked the string in it, and then dried it.

Chop a short section, light it with fire and calculate the time, a good fuse.

After installing the fuse as well, Qin Feng made nine land/mines. Qin Feng dug some pits in several places where he felt that personnel might enter, and buried these land/mines in them.

A shallow ditch was dug from the place where it was buried, and the fuse wrapped in sharpened wooden strips was also buried and led to the bottom of the watchtower in the village. Fasten these fuses with another clay pot to avoid accidental ignition.

After doing this, Qin Feng relaxed a little. During this time, for the defense of Doro Village, he didn't think of a way.

Standing on the top of the watchtower, Qin Feng looked at the wilderness around Doro Village with a wide field of vision, and he could basically achieve preliminary warning and defense.

The weather was getting colder, although Qin Feng felt that it was nothing, his body was very adaptable, and the set of clothes on his body was also amazing, and he couldn't feel the cold at all.

But the villagers of Kodora Village wore thick leather clothes.

Taking advantage of this time, Qin Feng built two wooden watchtowers in the village to observe movements in other directions of the village, and the hunting team members also changed shifts to observe on these three watchtowers.

Geographically, there are basically no natural barriers to defend the village, except for the Hongge Forest, which is a kilometer away, there are plains in all directions, and only a small river passes through the village.

But this small river is only two or three meters wide, and it cannot be used as a barrier at all, but only a source of drinking water.

"Qin, the village chief called you."

A member of the hunting team shouted at Qin Feng under the watchtower.

"What's going on?"

"A few villagers are unconscious, as well as a few children." The man told the truth.

When Qin Feng heard this, he felt a little surprised, during this time, no one in the village went out, and all they ate was the dried meat that they had hunted before, and the grain that they had exchanged for back. At the time of the exchange, nothing had happened with Bo Long and the others, and the other party was unlikely to be unfavorable to these villagers.

Qin Feng followed the man to a room, and the village chief Balu was already there.

"What's going on?"

Qin Feng saw that this was basically a family, six people, except for an old man, the other five people, regardless of men, women, old and children, were all in a coma, as if they were out of breath and less in breath, and they were about to die. Judging from the state of disarray on their lips, Qin Feng preliminarily judged that they might have been poisoned.

"Poisoned?" Qin Feng looked at Balu and asked.

"Hmm."

The hunters who had been on the edge of the forest for a long time were quite aware of all kinds of poisons, and Balu was sure, "A very rare poison, and I sent people to examine their food and the things around them, and found no poison that could cause this state." ”

"There's only one case, and that's water."

At the mention of water, Qin Feng was shocked, he felt that he had overlooked one of the most important issues in Doluo Village.

The village of Doro is almost self-sufficient, the food is hunted, the grain is exchanged, and the salt is not much. Some vegetables were grown in the field at the head of the village. The only drinking water is from the small river outside the village.

If the other party uses the water cut-off Hu Zong to poison the river, the consequences will be unimaginable. Now it is clear that the other side has adopted this extreme method and poisoned it.

Sure enough, it came.

"Village Chief, are you sure it's a water problem?" Qin Feng asked.

"Well, this is for sure, other villagers have a big water storage tank, it is estimated that this family's water tank is out of water, and I only went to the river to get water this morning."

"You see this jug is still full, and it can't be full if someone else is using it." Balu walked outside and pointed to the jug of water.

"What's there

Can you test out that this water is poisonous? Qin Feng was not good at this, so he had to ask Balu.

There are almost no livestock in this village, and there are no chickens, ducks, cows, sheep, pigs, dogs, etc., which are commonly found on the earth, even in the village of Dixinglong, which is usually used as animal power.

Balu was also a little embarrassed when he heard Qin Feng's words, and Fei Ge on the side suddenly interjected and said, "You can use pet beasts." ”

Fei Ge's words, Qin Feng couldn't help but laugh when he heard it, Fei Ge, who doesn't like pets and only likes Xiao Hei, made those pets in the village who are loved by girls suffer.

"Hurry up and find some pet beasts." The words of the village chief of Balu were listened to by everyone.

A short time later, a girl came in with a small pet with great reluctance, one hunter grabbed the pet from the cage, and another scooped some water from the pitcher outside the house and fed it to the pet.

At first, the pet did not react, and just as everyone was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the furry-looking pet suddenly fell to the ground, convulsed, and died in a short time.

This shocked everyone, this poison is very special, there is no reaction at the beginning, once the attack can be fatal quickly, as long as you drink enough.

"Let's go and find out which other family went to the river to get water today, and immediately use clean water from other homes to fill it." Qin Feng knew the seriousness of the problem.

"Go ahead, what are you doing in a daze? Didn't you hear Qin's words? Balu yelled as he looked at the others next to him who were still in a daze for their pets.

Soon the results came out, a total of seven or eight families this morning to get water from the frozen river, and when these people went to count, the other two had already been poisoned and fell into a coma.

Qin Feng looked at Balu, the other party's tricks were really vicious, and they immediately curbed the lifeblood of Doro Village, and the lack of water was as unbearable as no food, or more serious.

"Lido, put all the hunting party members on guard and have all their weapons ready."

"Village Chief, we need to gather all the villagers and draw everyone's attention to these problems, the enemy is coming. Not only drinking water, but also other things that need to be paid attention to, so as not to let people go outside the village. ”

Qin Feng's first thought was that the other party would definitely not have only this one means, and there would definitely be more and more vicious ways to deal with Doluo Village.

"Bring the hay and sand of all the houses." Qin Feng thought of a solution, but he didn't know if it worked, "We can filter the water with hay and fine sand and boil it." I don't know if this poison can be cured. ”

"In my years of experience, I have never seen this poison, and I don't know how to cure it." Balu shook his head.

Among the oldest and most qualified people in the village, the Balu village chief has the most experience, and it is he who has led the villagers of Doro Village to survive over the years.

The village chief, Balu, went to convene a meeting of the villagers, but Qin Feng came to the largest watchtower, where Lido was already there.

"How? Did you find anything? ”

"No, there are no anomalies in the surrounding field of vision." Lido was quite helpless

Qin Feng knew that this kind of invisible enemy was the most troublesome.

"The other party must have poisoned the upper reaches of the river, this river has already been frozen, although it is not thick, but it must be before the other party poisoned, you sent someone to collect some back, if there is no poison, it can be used as a backup water source in the village."

This was the only solution Qin Feng could think of.

As long as you can hold on for a while and wait for the other party's patience to run out and jump out of the shadows, it will be easy to solve. Now the enemy is dark and I am clear, and Doro Village can only be passively defended, just to see who can't bear it first.

The results of the verification were as Qin Feng expected, there was no poison in the ice that had formed before, and Liduo and the others collected a lot of ice under the cover of the bow and crossbow and stored it in several large clay pots in the center of the village.

The water problem has been solved for the time being, and there is still a lot of ice around the village, and Lido is still sending people to collect it. The water beneath the ice in the river was flowing, and Qin Feng believed that it was impossible for the other party to inject poison upstream without restrictions.

It is believed that the other party will not wait long before attacking the village.
