In fact, there is no shortage of metal in this era, at least not steel.Because the wealth left over from the pre-industrial era is far from being consumed, even in the ruins of the old city, a large number of usable profiles can be collected by digging through them.Therefore, not to mention a place like Ben Cheng with strong industrial capacity, even if it is a gathering area of some second-level or third-level civilizations, it is not difficult to make a similar badge by yourself.But just because it's easy to make doesn't mean someone will make it.After all, this thing is not only metal materials, but also needs to go through various processing procedures, in this regard, the landlord's family has no surplus grain, everyone is not rich, of course, no one will do this kind of useless work.That is, the kind of group that pays more attention to the form of organization will spend time and resources to make badges to increase cohesion.And as can be seen from the pattern of this badge, it is clear that this should belong to a militarized organization.After all, no matter how much dog lovers like big guns, they won't replace them with rifles.Thinking of this, Ding Chen glanced at Leng Yue and asked, "Do you know this" Leng Yue shook his head, most of the time, the badge patterns of military organizations are not too much, either shields or guns, like sickles, hammers, gears, these are relatively creative.So in fact, Leng Yue wasn't sure if she had seen a similar badge at all, she shook her head to mean that she didn't know, not that she hadn't seen it.Ding Chen groaned for a while, pulled a handful of grass and wiped the badge, then put it in his pocket and beckoned everyone to move on.It was not an easy task to walk at night, but fortunately they were walking along a road, and their feet were much smoother, and although the road was overgrown with weeds, there were not many trees that could take root and grow, and it was more comfortable than walking through the forest.Shortly after setting off again, it started to drizzle.Ding Chen couldn't find a place to rest from the rain, so he simply decided to continue in the rain.They rested twice along the way, and in the early hours of the morning, they finally made their way out of the mountains, and the drizzle that had fallen overnight had turned into mist and dissipated in the sun.Leng Yu, who was walking in front of the group, suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a wisp of cooking smoke rising from the sky, so he judged that there should be a village there.The discovery was a little heartening for several people, and the village usually meant hot food, and perhaps a hot pit, which was a great temptation for eight people who had been drilling deep in the mountains for a week, and had not slept for more than twenty-four hours and had been drenched in the rain all night.Ding Chen did not hesitate, and immediately decided to go to the vicinity of the village to have a look.It's not that he suddenly fell in love with the fire pit of the farmer's house, but because, in most cases, the places near the natural village that have a water source like an apartment and get their own running water are the real few.They had been moving along the road all day yesterday, which had the advantage of saving their physical strength, but the disadvantage was that they had lost the opportunity to encounter a water source, and they had not been able to replenish their drinking water, even if they did not consider any other reason, they had enough reason to visit the village.The natural villages of this era usually have some force guarantees, or in other words, people who live independently in these years will not be good men and women, so Ding Chen did not choose to walk along the road and swagger into the village.Instead, he was going to go around to the back of the village to have a look, and if he could, he hoped to be able to sneak in.In this plan, they need to walk through a cornfield.Although the scale of the village could not be seen yet, Ding Chen judged that it could not be too large, so after passing through the corn field, it should appear at the back of the village.The straws in this corn field were still standing tall and had not been harvested, so Ding Chen felt that he should be able to use these straws as cover.But when he walked into the cornfield, he found that his judgment was too hasty, and the straw here had been harvested in a large area, and it was not as much as it seemed.At least the stalks on the side of the village have been cut down and taken away.Straw, as a combustible, is a good fuel.The straw in the apartment's corn field is harvested early in the morning, dried and piled up for use in the winter to make a fire.Its leftovers are also shredded and sent down to the digester to produce biogas.For apartments, corn is an absolute treasure all over the crop.The people here don't have as much use of corn as they do, but they at least know that the fruit can be eaten and the stalks can be burned, and they've been doing it for some time.It's just that compared with the apartment, the attitude of the people here towards the straw should be cut and burned, and it will not be piled up in advance.Truth be told, it's not a good idea because it can be hard to walk in a cornfield after a snowfall.Of course, Ding Chen doesn't care about what happens after the snow, in fact, judging from what he learned in the apartment, there is a big gap between the climate of this era and his time on the space station, where there used to be a heating period of five months a year, there is now only a winter of more than one month, and the minimum temperature is only minus 20 degrees.He hid behind the stalks, which had not yet been cut down, and looked into the village for a while, and found that the smoke seemed to be thickening, which made him suspicious in his heart.So he motioned for the others to stay here, and he went over to see it himself.Leng Yue thought about it and followed, Ding Chen looked back at her and did not object.The two men bent as low as they could, quickly crossing the cornfields covered with knee-high stalks.In this case, the roots of these stalks become annoying, and after they are cut off, the part left on the ground usually has a sharp top, and if you accidentally fall on it, you are likely to get injured.Ding Chen knew that Kiki would cover behind him, so he didn't feel nervous when he walked through the unprotected open area.Even if someone in the village was going to shoot at him, he didn't think anyone would be able to hit a target moving at high speed from a distance of one or two hundred meters.Outside the cornfield was a dirt road that had been trampled out, and some firewood and thatch were piled up on the side of the road near the village.Because of the rain last night, the thatch used to shelter from the rain was wet, and it looked dirty and messy, but according to Ding Chen's experience, these water-soaked thatchs were actually good cover, which could effectively reduce the speed of small-caliber bullets.He hid behind a pile of thatch and peered out into the village.This village is as he expected, the scale is not large, judging by the number of houses, that is, the appearance of more than a dozen households.In this kind of sparsely populated place, everyone has no scruples about enclosing the land, so the yard of each house is very large.The front and back of the house have been turned into vegetable patches, except for the warehouses made of wooden planks and other items.The house closest to Ding Chen seems to have grown crops such as beans, and the yard has a shelf with tree branches and vines.Leng Yue bent down and ran up from behind, hid behind Ding Chen, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
"There are people in this house. ”Ding Chen said.As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a man with a rifle on his back and a cloth bag on his shoulder, walking out of the house.As he walked, he was still scolding and didn't know what to say.Leng Yue poked her head out from above Ding Chen to take a look, and said in a low voice, "Something is wrong here." ”Ding Chen hummed and agreed.In fact, when he was still in the cornfield, he had already noticed that there was something wrong in the village, and the smoke looked so thick that it didn't look like someone was making a fire, but like someone was lighting a bonfire.But this clear day, Lang Lang Qiankun, what do you want to do by lighting a bonfire in the village, Leng Yue didn't seem to want to be troublesome, and whispered to Ding Chen: "Do we still want to continue" She said: "We can bypass." ”Ding Chen waved his hand, "Let's take a look." ”Leng Yue rolled her eyes, very disapproving.In her opinion, whatever happened here had nothing to do with her, and she didn't want to be involved in trouble.But in fact, it didn't delay her for long.The man who came out of the house suddenly stopped in the yard, he put down his shoulder pocket, strode towards a chicken coop in the corner of the yard, and then, with a scream, dragged out of the chicken coop a little girl with a chicken in her arms.aa2705221，，； mobile phone reading,
