Otherwise, He Anqi would never be able to imagine how humans can irrigate such a large wheat field.

Outside Wangcheng, there is a wheat field along the other, and there is a small farmhouse gathering place not far away. It seems that it is the residence of those peasant women. It can be seen that the number of farmers will definitely not be small.

What made He Anqi sigh was that the team walked for a whole day before they barely walked out of the wheat field area and saw the grassland separated by fences, and then a group of people began to recuperate and rest.

"Are there such wheat fields around Wangcheng?"

"Yes, we will advance to the grassland this year, and the wheat production is still not enough. I don't know why the original farmland has less and less yield, and I may have to give up." Sophia was a little unwilling. It was not easy to reclaim those farmlands. After the new farmland is reclaimed, it is not possible to have a good harvest immediately, and it will cost a lot of manpower and material resources.

"I'll think of a way when the time comes." He Anqi found that the crops here were pitifully few, and most of the vegetables were new to her. He Anqi decided that after she had enough happiness gold coins, she would first increase the following species, at least to allow The types of plants that can be cultivated have increased.

He Anqi has studied the shops of the God of Light these days. As long as she thinks about it, she can see that there are many kinds of things, but there are no animals. Think about it, too. Let’s not talk about the consequences of species invasion. As far as the combat effectiveness index of this world is concerned, Even if the beasts of the earth are sent here, they may not survive.

He Anqi originally thought that today would be like this, but she didn't expect to see a very familiar figure after walking a few steps in the grassland, but what happened to that huge figure?Are the voles here so well-nourished?

"Mistress, be careful!" A soldier rushed up quickly, and soon several more soldiers surrounded him, and together they besieged the field mouse that was only as big as a deer.

What amazed He Anqi was that the vole was very fast and had very sharp teeth. When biting on a metal weapon, it could actually make a metal collision sound.He Anqi saw with sharp eyes that the weapons and armor of several soldiers had been damaged.

However, the field mouse died in the end. These fighters were not low in combat effectiveness, and quickly killed the field mouse. So many people were mainly protecting He Anqi, and in fact, one person could kill the field mouse.

Then He Anqi saw a group of people happily disemboweling the vole, presumably for extra food.

He Anqi looked thoughtfully at the size of the voles and their hard teeth. If monsters were in such a state, it would be impossible to raise them.

Sophia also looked at the field mouse worriedly, "This is the edge of the wheat field. I didn't expect to see giant mice. It seems that we need to encircle and suppress them."

"Does it need frequent siege here?"

"Yes, human wheat fields are easy to attract herbivorous monsters, and they must be cleaned up every once in a while. This is also the main source of meat in Wangcheng, and also the main income of mercenaries."

He Anqi nodded to express her understanding. Seeing the soldiers happily eating rat meat, there must not be many opportunities to eat meat. Although with their abilities, there is still a good chance to hunt and kill monsters, but the soldiers' Their identities restricted their freedom. With such a long distance, it was impossible to hunt back and forth every day. It was even more difficult to buy meat. Who made it so difficult to provide meat.

6. Hunting

After finally waking up from sleep, the sky turned slightly white. There is no way, I went to bed too early last night, so naturally I woke up very early.But even so, He Anqi was the last one to wake up. The food in the camp had already been cooked, and even a large part of it had been packed, so she could set off again soon.

"Are you able to eat breakfast today? I thought that except for nobles, other people only have two meals a day."

"Soldiers are different. They need to train and maintain a good physique, so they all eat three meals." Sophia said with a blank expression while helping He Anqi pack her bags.

"I didn't expect you to tidy up things so neatly. I thought that the young ladies of noble families are the kind who don't know anything and need someone to take care of everything."

"Most of them are, but there are also female knights like me. We spend a lot of time fighting outside, and you will not be allowed to bring a servant to serve you on the battlefield, so I have learned all of them." Sophia explained indifferently .

He Anqi grabbed Sophia's hand, and found that it was not the hand of a young lady, it was probably comparable to the hand of a peasant woman. It was covered with calluses and scars, and looked very rough.

"These are not the hands a princess should have." He Anqi said regretfully.

"I'm a knight." Sophia withdrew her hands and said coldly. Even as a princess, she can't help herself. If she wants to have her own life, she can only fight like everyone else. , to fight.

The team set off again. There were very few people on the road, but it was not empty. He Anqi saw a lot of tents, camps and the like along the way. There were three or five people at least, and dozens of people at most. After the team, everyone will salute respectfully, put down their weapons, and show that they are not aggressive.

He Anqi greeted everyone she met with a smile, and didn't care about the confused eyes of the other party, but everyone didn't respond to He Anqi, they just lowered their heads and pretended to be deaf and dumb. After He Anqi left a long way away, they whispered What are these.

This time, the team did not advance for too long, and the team stopped at a camp around noon.It seems that this camp is very large and surrounded by fences. Although some places are a bit damaged, it can still be seen that this is an old camp site.

"This is a hunting ground for nobles. Many young nobles will come here to set up camps if they want to go hunting. This place is very convenient. It is not far from the Liwang City, and there is a stream beside it. The eyes are open and there will not be too much surrounding area. and no one else will break in." Sophia seemed to see He Anqi's confusion, so she explained it a little.

After getting ready, except for a few people who stayed behind, everyone went on the road and started looking for monsters.Although the armor and weapons on everyone were beautiful and sturdy, this way of hunting on foot always made He Anqi feel weird.

In the past, on TV, I saw those aristocrats riding horses galloping and hunting around. Compared with now, there is a huge difference.

In order to take care of He Anqi, He Anqi was sitting on the only horse. Sophia became the horse-leader and walked slowly aside, while the others scattered around to check the surrounding situation.

Suddenly, He Anqi saw a white shadow not far ahead, and then a sharp arrow flew away. After a while, a soldier walked over with a white rabbit with horns on its head.

He Anqi looked at the rabbit in front of her speechlessly, and wanted to ask if the so-called monsters here had an extra horn on their heads compared to animals on the earth?

Unfortunately, no one answered her question.

He Anqi thought for a while, and asked, "Can you catch the cubs of these horned rabbits? Remove the horns on their heads and raise them up. Wouldn't there be meat for them?"

"These horned rabbits are very troublesome. They move fast, jump high, and can dig holes. It is very troublesome to raise them. We are short of manpower here, so basically no one will bother with this effort."

"Then leave it to me, first help me catch some live horned rabbits, big or small."

Sophia sighed, and gave the order helplessly, and a group of knights got busy all around.

There are indeed no large monsters in this playground, but there are many things like horned rabbits and giant rats. The group did not go too far, but they have already gained a lot.

"There are so many monsters here?" He Anqi said in surprise, if there are so many monsters, there is really no need to raise them, as long as there are enough people to catch them, oh forgot, the population is not enough, there is not too much labor .

"The reproduction speed of this small monster is very fast. The deeper you go into the grassland, the closer you are to the mountains and forests, the greater the danger. Presumably, for those fierce carnivorous monsters, the threat to humans is much smaller. In addition, humans It is difficult to guard all the wheat fields, they are rich in food here, even if humans often come to hunt them, they still will not leave."

He Anqi understood that monsters like this that run fast, have great strength, and have horns on their heads are still dangerous. Even rabbits that eat grass cannot be dealt with by random people. In this place, The food is plentiful, the pressure of survival is low, and the threat is small, so these animals are reluctant to leave. After all, such things as encirclement and suppression cannot be carried out every day.

After a group of knights caught a live rabbit, they took the lead in cutting off the horns on its head.He Anqi found that after losing the horns, the rabbit seemed much more docile, huddled together and shivering, looking terrified.

In order to prevent the rabbits from escaping, the knights even interrupted the rabbits from retreating, which made them move a lot slower.

Although she feels sorry for these rabbits with broken legs, He Anqi also knows that this is the best way. After all, it is not easy to keep these live rabbits in such a poor environment.

After He Anqi and her group returned to the camp, He Anqi realized that the remaining knights were not empty either. There were a lot of prey in the open space of the camp. No wonder these knights carried very little food.
