Doom: Liver experience from hunting

Chapter 64 Find nothing, disappear again!

Go back to the house, put on two pieces of scale armor, and put on leather armor outside.

Two guards led the way, and a group of three riders went straight to the scavengers' camp.

The sound of hooves.

The people who just came back from the outside, the scavengers on the road, heard the sound of horseshoes, and gave way to both sides of the road early.

A distance to the west of the camp is the settlement of scavengers.

Further west from here is a large lake.

Tang Wen rode his horse all the way to the shore of the lake, and met his subordinates from the hunting camp.

"Commander Tang!"

"Tong Zhou led the men and chased them down the path."

"Chasing?" Tang Wen was surprised.

"Well, we found footprints of leather boots in the woods ahead. Those missing scavengers were taken away by someone."

Tang Wen raised his eyebrows. Could it be that the Black Mountain camp lacked slaves?

It is possible that they got the coal mines just when they needed manpower.

It seems that the missing scavengers are going to die of exhaustion in the coal mine.

People in troubled times are not as good as dogs in prosperous times.

He sighed, not intending to save the scavengers at all.

The sun went down, and the dense forest in front of me was silent.

"Quack quack", there are red-eyed crows flying over the head, as if they are announcing a funeral.

Following the traces of Zhou Bing and the others, Tang Wen walked into the path on foot.

In less than half an hour, he met Zhou Bing and others who were returning.

"What did you find?"

First he smiled at him, then Zhou Bing shook his head and said: "The other party came prepared, first drove the people away, and when they got to the front, they brought the horses and carried the people away."

The two returned side by side, and Tang Wen expressed his conjecture.

Zhou Binghe agrees, she also thinks it was done by the Montenegro camp.

The two agree.

"It seems that the Montenegrin ghosts have not received enough lessons! The arrests have come to our door!"

Back at the camp, the two of them analyzed it with Commander Zhang, who immediately sneered.

He has a broken-arm feud with the Montenegro camp, and of course he advocates teaching the Montenegro ghosts a lesson.

Commander Zhang said: "In the Black Mountain Camp, there is only one general-level black old ghost who is active every day, and he will not go out easily. Therefore, the guy who comes to steal people at night is at most the leader of the team. Why don't we catch him first? ?”

Tang Wen and Zhou Bing looked at each other, and the former said unhurriedly: "Squatting down for a while, of course there is no problem. But the lion needs to fight the rabbit with all his strength. You should inform General Zhao."

After the news was reported, within a quarter of an hour, General Zhao rushed over, followed by two commanders.

"This group of Montenegro ghosts dance very well!"

General Zhao's eyes were full of evil spirits.

Tang Wen explained: "At present, it is only speculation, and there is no evidence yet."

General Zhao waved his hand: "Evidence? What we say is evidence!"

Seeing other people as they should be.

Tang Wen shook his head and said, "No matter what, we should figure out their purpose of arresting people! If it's just mining, it doesn't matter. I'm afraid there are some factors we don't know about."

General Zhao frowned and thought for a while, then said, "Alright, let's split up and guard at night. Arrange a few hunting teams to guard on the way to the Black Mountain camp."

"Okay, we'll make arrangements tonight. There's also a scavenger camp. I'll send a few people to live in it too."

After speaking, seeing that there were no objections from the few people in the room, Tang Wen said to General Zhao again: "General, just in case, I have to invite you to the outer city camp for a few days to set up a place."

"Well, I'm staying here tonight."

After getting this sentence, Tang Wen was relieved.

In fact, according to his analysis, the Montenegro camp secretly did this kind of kidnapping.

There is a high probability that no general will be dispatched, not even a commander level.

After all, once the masters want face;

Second, to deal with a group of scavengers who can't get enough to eat, ordinary guards are enough.

Hunting guards are dispatched, and they are considered overqualified.

But what if!
Tang Wen didn't want to take any risks.

Just imagine, after the guards found someone coming, they fired arrows.

I foolishly rushed over to take a look, okay, a general-level powerhouse, what should I do then?
Did you kneel down on the spot?

Shouting: Wen, wandering for half a life, only hate
He shook his head, turned around and asked the messenger to call all the captains of the ten teams of the hunting camp.

After a while, ten captains arrived.

General Zhao made arrangements one by one according to what he just said:

A team went to the coal mining area to wait and see if any slaves were sent there.

The second team lurked on the only way to the Montenegro camp.

The task of the third team is to go to the scavenger camp every night to see if they can block the incoming people.

They are all surveillance missions, nothing difficult.

A small team has enough manpower, and it is enough to change shifts day and night.

The three captains went down to prepare.

The other seven hunting teams were also not allowed to herd sheep.

At least half of the people stay in camp every night.

Before things are resolved.

Tang Wen and Zhou Bing also had to live in the camp.

However, three days in a row passed.

Nothing happened.

General Zhao couldn't stand it anymore: "Drought is coming, I have a lot of things to do, I can't stay in the outer city forever. You two should pay attention."

After explaining a few words, he took people away.

Tang Wen was reluctant, but he had no reason to stop it.

On the fourth night, he was on duty and fell into a drowsy sleep in the lounge, never having a good sleep.

Fortunately, nothing happened overnight.

Seeing that five days had passed, the supplies brought by the three hunting teams were exhausted and the food was gone.

They sent people back to report one after another, and they didn't see anything suspicious for five days, not to mention people in the wild, not even a ghost.

The people in the scavenger camp did not disappear anymore.

Zhou Bing guessed: "Could it be the Heishan ghost, there are not many people missing, and after the hundred and ten people are captured, there will be enough manpower?"

Will it be such a coincidence?

Tang Wen didn't believe it, but it was not an option to let the team do this kind of surveillance all the time.

The severe drought has begun, and his three-story cellar has been built, and he is about to carry out the next step of the grain storage plan.

There is no time to protect the scavengers.

He decided: "Withdraw! Inform Team [-], [-], and [-] to withdraw today."

"Yes!"

The sentinel led the way.

Seeing that there were only two people left in the room, Tang Wen said to Zhou Bing: "Next, I want to send 3 teams to field training every day."

"zipper?"

The ice beauty had never heard of this term.

Tang Wen took her slender green palm, played with it and said, "Currently, the beasts in the forest have not migrated due to the drought. We need to stock up on some meat."

Zhou Bing gave him a reproachful look, shook his head and said, "It's fine to hunt, but the meat can't be kept. It's not winter. Even if you use salt to pickle, how can you get so much salt?"

The salt in the camp is rock salt, which comes from the mountains, and it is not easy to purify.

It is no problem to ensure that everyone has salt to eat.

But if you want to use hundreds of catties to pickle food, it's impossible.

Tang Wen didn't answer, but pointed to the outside of the city wall and said: "The trees around our camp must be cut down, otherwise the drought will cause the trees to dry up and cause fires. It's just right that the green branches of these trees can be used to make smoked bacon."

"Bacon?" Zhou Bing was puzzled: it's another new word.

Tang Wendao: "I also found out by accident that bacon doesn't need too much salt, and the dried meat can be preserved for more than half a year."

"Okay! Since you want to do it, let's try it." Zhou Bing had never heard of smoked meat, but she believed in Tang Wen unconditionally.

Tang Wen raised his hand to rub her smooth face, the jade-like skin became warmer and bright red.

"Go and find the chef."

"It's that late."

"Sooner rather than later."

It was a matter of getting enough to eat, and Tang Wen didn't dare to delay.

On the morning of the sixth day, he led three hunting parties out of the city.

A team is arranged to cut down trees.

The other two teams plus him, a total of 21 people.

Divide into seven groups and go hunting in the forest.

Speaking of which, the forests in this world are dense, but the products are not rich.

Where the flame camp is located, the climate is somewhat similar to that of the Northeast in the previous life.

But there is no rich product of "beating roe deer with a stick and scooping fish with a ladle".

Tang Wen has been hunting for several months, but he has not seen a few fauna. There are only a few animals, and they are all difficult to catch.

He speculated that one is that the alienated beasts eat more;

Second, the environment is bad.

Natural disasters are not only a test for humans, but also for animals.

In the evening, the hunting team had a mediocre harvest.

More than a dozen warriors, in their previous lives, were at least at the level of fighting champions.

At the end of the day, each person harvests less than 10 catties of meat.

I haven't consumed much food yet.

But that's not how the accounts are calculated. The food they eat is provided by the camp.

And the prey he hit was all his own.

On the seventh day, continue hunting.

But once you go out, the omen is not good.

A red-eyed crow followed them all the way, and Tang Wen raised his hand to shoot it down.

But the archers in the team said that killing this thing is unknown, and its meat is too sour to taste.

Tang Wen just gave up.

The harvest of this day is really average.

On the eighth day, Tang Wen was preparing to go hunting.

Suddenly a guard came to report: "Commander Tang, I received news that another person went missing in the scavenger camp last night!"

"Huh?" Tang Wen turned his head sharply, his eyes sharp.
