Tang Qi Tan

On Poyang Lake, which is full of lakes and mountains, the sound of explosions and roars sounded one after another; with the intense splashing on the water surface, white water splashes rippling and spreading; tumbling sludge, white and white dead fish; Aquatic heterogeneity emerges together.

Afterwards, on several fast-approaching fast boats, there was the sound of rows of firecrackers firing; they hit these aquatic aliens like raindrops, splashing water and blood mottled on them; some of them were also beaten into convulsions Unceasingly, he struggled and wanted to swim and run away.

However, the navy soldiers who were waiting in full battle on the ship pierced the body with a hook arrow fired from a strong crossbow, and then dragged them back to the side of the ship with ease, chopped off the head with knives and axes, and chopped it together with other corpses into pieces thrown into the water. Crushed; as if it had happened many times before.

Although doing so may pollute the water body, it seems to be insignificant compared to the volume of rivers and lakes including Poyang Lake; at least, it has been observed from various fishing samples along the way; The local ecology re-forms a dynamic balance.

Therefore, these flesh and blood residues can at most make the local aquatic plants grow denser, and the fish, turtles, shrimps and crabs grow bigger and weirder.In fact, in some ports along the way, there have even been stalls openly selling some oddly shaped aquatic products.

After all, this is the daily livelihood and life of the local people. Even under the threat of abnormal creatures and aliens, it is still an example of taking risks.Jiang Tian also observed some of the samples privately, at least after they were fully cooked, there was no activity left.

As for the toxin residue that may be caused by long-term consumption, and even the probability of potential blood contamination; it is not something that he can influence and control right now.After all, the sky is big and the earth is big, and the fullest is the most; compared with the pain of starvation, the long-term risks and probabilities are not important.

It has been more than half a month since I left Jiangling Mansion.And Jiang Tian's original post of "Quan Zhifen patrolling the southern Taoist affairs, one prefecture and five prefectures to arrest envoys", also came with the post of the Bachelor of Traditional System, became "Quan Zhifen patrolling the censors of all roads in the river" , and also lead the messengers of beast disasters, monsters, chaos and strange news."

So during this time.Jiang Tian specially selected a relatively simple and sophisticated team from the Fifth Battalion of Laymen, the First Battalion of Youxiaowei, and the Jinghu Navy stationed in Jiangling Mansion, and sent them down the river on five specially modified vehicles and boats. ;began to process unusual events at places along the way.

Of course, after the root of the mutation in Yunmeng Daze has been wiped out and eradicated; the aberrations and aliens that can pose a threat to the place will no longer exist.Therefore, according to the reports of the inspectors, most of them were rumors made by the folks in the countryside, or it was a false alarm;
There are even some incidents of human and animal injuries caused by wild animals that are obviously common in the mountains and forests; however, they are also regarded as alien attacks by the local authorities, and the sudden panic caused a gust of panic.Therefore, in most cases, relying on the local inspection team will calm down.

But after going south all the way, leaving the surrounding area of ​​Yunmengze, and entering the Dongting Lake basin.Finally, when the local government came to welcome them, they reported more accurate sightings of strange activities and abnormal situations.But it didn't reach the level where Jiang Tian needed to take action.

There are more local creatures with huge mutant bodies: for example, a super-large catfish that dares to swallow anything raw or cold; a water ghost/drowned monster that likes to attack women and children covered in aquatic plants and mucus; a creature that is as big as a basin and makes a sound like a drum, and can jet paralyze Poisonous toads; thick-armed water centipedes...

However, in front of the heavy kerosene and explosives carried by the laymen, as well as the firecrackers and cannons of the laymen, it is only one of the long or short links in the processing process; Recorded and obtained corresponding samples/living bodies.

And for some special or rare individuals, several line drawing artists recruited on board will carry out multiple angles of painting and record them; as one of the materials of "Strange Records" which is being compiled.When a certain amount is accumulated, it will be transferred back to Xijing for publication.

Then, the special publications recording the characteristics and weaknesses of monsters are transferred to the relevant departments of the three provinces and six ministries of the imperial court, all levels of government in Daozhou prefectures and counties, and the local branches of the secret censor department; Threats, official guidance and general references.

And the most active and relatively harmful ones, the abnormal creatures and heterogeneous groups, are eliminated; some sporadic fish that escaped the net are left; it is the duty of the local government gentlemen; Even the existence that Han can beat to death cannot be dealt with.

Of course, among these deformed creatures, there are also some that seem harmless and lack aggressiveness, but need to continue to be observed; they will be specially tried to capture some larvae, and conduct short-term feeding and taming experiments to see if they can become monsters. Foodstuffs, livestock, or tools.

Among them, the only time Jiang Tian made a move was to dive into the deep water of Dongting Lake when he was frightened. It was like a giant turtle the size of a room. The samples were transferred to the capital overnight by big ship.

And Jiang Tian spent most of his time on the largest one of them, the thousand-material car and boat.This large vehicle and ship named "Houlang" has two and a half decks, which is wider than most cruise ships on the river; therefore, in addition to handling sailors, it can also carry half a regiment of soldiers and their equipment.

The large compartment/bottom warehouse under the deck alone can hold enough supplies and materials for two or three months; there are also containment/isolation rooms, corrals, gunpowder/armor stores, kitchens, medical rooms, etc., with different functions cabin.The first and second floors of the deck building are the soldiers' quarters/posts.

On the front and rear decks, there are multiple turntable gun positions with guard plates, and more than a dozen wide-mouthed guns; in the arc shields on the left and right sides, there are installations that can spray water to extinguish fire, and can also spray oil. Burning pressure water hose; cover port for paddling travel if necessary...  

Only the top half floor and the terrace are left alone as Jiang Tian's exclusive office space/map room/temporary army; and a personal residence including a whole suite.In this suite, there are all kinds of household items for living and living, which also reflects a certain kind of thoughtfulness.

Therefore, even if Jiang Tian does not disembark for a long time, he still has a relatively spacious space for activities, and relies on the supporting facilities and supplies on these ships to live quite comfortably and freely.If you don't look at the weapons on the deck and the patrolling soldiers, it's like the treatment of a private yacht.

In addition, the slightly smaller [-]-material and [-]-material vehicle ships have similar configurations; only some strengthen the firepower projection and long-range support on the deck, some increase the space for carrying soldiers, and some It is to strengthen the maintenance and repair capabilities, and some have expanded storage.

It's just that Linghu Xiaomu has worked a little harder.During the day, she has to assist in writing books, processing documents, and sending and receiving files; at night, she has to light up night battles, and discuss and research with Jiang Tian, ​​which originated from the ancient rituals of Zhou Gong and the mysteries of the road of human relations;

Thinking of this, Jiang Tian smiled at Linghu Xiaomu, who had a faint resentment on his face, but couldn't speak, so he could only roll his eyes, and gently pulled back You's warm palm while holding Zhenshou; Look through the latest Chaowendi newspaper delivered by the official post, and the compilation of the two capital manuscripts.

Routine reports from the outside are still going on: it is nothing more than how many mutants have been killed, how many alien samples have been discovered and captured; how many existing achievements have been transferred from the port city wharf along the way.And which local officials posted posts, hoping to come to visit or invite a meeting.

At this time, there was another whistling sound from outside; then someone shouted: "Caught it!" "Caught it!" "It's still alive...".Then Jiang Tian came out after hearing the sound, and saw several small fast boats returning, leaning against the edge of the "Houlang" and hoisting an iron cage.

Then, in the iron cage laid flat on the deck, there was an existence of spotted fur all over the body; under the threat of scratching hooks and spears near the left, it made a whining sound like a night owl.Then, the lieutenant layman who was the leader of this team also explained to Jiang Tian:
"Jianzheng, this is the minion that my brothers caught in Raoxin Township, Poyang County. There is a whole litter of more than a dozen pigs, and they just hide in the forest next to the official road to kill people. The local local police were called The regiment and the township soldiers set up a card to patrol and blockade it day and night, and finally caught this live one."

While talking, he saw this strange creature named "Tiger" being pulled out of the cage with an iron rod around its neck and limbs; a shrunken tiger with its head was revealed, but its limbs were not. As slender as a human being, it is a special alien that can walk upright.

A notice suddenly appeared in Jiang Tian's mind.It is said that this kind of alien named minion, in addition to being able to stand upright like a human being, can also manipulate the movement of the bones in a small range, and imitate the voice of a woman crying and asking for help, and is used to deceive and lure pedestrians and business travelers to approach.

Then trap it in one fell swoop to hunt and share food.And the senses are quite sensitive, and they will quickly hide and escape at the slightest sign of trouble. They belong to the relatively cunning and difficult one among the aliens after the change of the celestial sphere.The local government has encountered it many times before, but it has never been able to hunt and kill it.

This time, with the help of the large stones obtained from the giant slug's deformed mollusk/phantom, the special smell produced after the fire attracted it; and then these extremely sensitive and cunning minions , within the preset ambush circle.

But what Jiang Tian is more interested in is that this thing can actually manipulate the bones for a short period of time, and make all kinds of actions like living people, so it was named Minion.However, a new discovery was made while putting restraints on this neighing minion, the shaving sheath.

There is actually a rusty iron ring embedded in its shoulder blade.
