Reclaiming Wasteland and Farming: My Haunted Fields Are Spawning Monsters Infinitely

Li Qingshan and his group left the northern camp and headed to Jue Long Valley, then through Jue Long Valley to the northern grasslands.

Throughout the journey, the man carrying the iron shovel stood out conspicuously.

Using the alias Shen Ying, disguised as a man, Shen Ying followed behind Li Qingshan, feeling somewhat strange: Uncle Zhou had told him to stick close to him, implying that he was Uncle Zhou's trump card.

But his appearance makes it really hard to believe.

I don't know what Uncle Zhou saw in him.

A group of people arrived at Dragon Valley.

After passing through the Dragon Valley, an endless grassland stretches out before you.

The opening ceremony of this autumn hunting festival was held at Sacred Lake on the grassland, with the Red Bone Tribe as the main participants and other tribes as secondary participants.

When the Da Yan hunting party arrived, the opening ceremony was nearing its end. They missed the most grand song and dance segment and went straight to the main event.

The officer in charge of the liaison, a square-faced man, said with a dark expression, "You're already late. Now choose your weapons. You have five days, starting at sunset on the fifth day. If you manage to hunt, light a campfire and tie a red rope to the animal's left hind leg. Someone will be responsible for bringing the prey here."

As he spoke, the square-faced man glanced at the crowd and lowered his voice, saying, "The general has high hopes for you this time; he expects you to win the championship."

Li Qingshan felt that when he said this, he glanced at him almost imperceptibly.

Could it be that your hopes of winning the championship rest on me?

Li Qingshan suddenly felt immense pressure.

Meanwhile, the others had gone to the weapon racks to find the weapons they wanted.

For ordinary land clearing households, a suitable weapon is a luxury. For soldiers in military camps, it is no easier.

This time, the Great Yan Dynasty allocated a batch of weapons from the military camp, and the barbarian bows and arrows have always been known for their excellent quality.

Shen Ying immediately chose a barbarian short bow, tried it out, and found that she could draw it just right with her arm strength.

She selected some arrows and hung them on her back; how could she go hunting without a fine bow and arrows?

Li Qingshan, resting his chin on his hand, was also searching for a suitable weapon.

His plan was to take it all back and give it to Zhou Ergou to cash in.

This is obviously unrealistic.

As a second choice, he wanted to select a pure iron spear, but weapons made of pure iron were a luxury even in the military camp.

Li Qingshan tried out a long spear, but it didn't feel quite right in his hand.

Suddenly, he noticed a shovel, and his eyes lit up. He hadn't expected to see such a thing.

"Here, you carry this for me."

Shen Ying had just chosen her bow and arrows and was still in a daze when Li Qingshan handed her a shovel.

"What...what's the use of this?" Her beautiful eyes widened, her face full of confusion.

"Just take it, why all the nonsense?"

"Why don't you take it yourself?" Shen Ying said angrily.

"Because I'm the captain."

What a load of rubbish, what kind of captain is he? He really thinks he's some kind of official.

Shen Ying was disdainful in her heart, but on the surface she still obediently accepted the shovel.

Li Qingshan then chose a barbarian broadsword, which could protect him from wild beasts if he encountered them.

"Hey you, carry this knife for me." Li Qingshan pointed to a tall, taciturn man next to him.

"My name is Qian Damu," the other person said succinctly.

Finally, Li Qingshan wanted to choose an iron sword. He had been working on the Three Swords of Asking the Moon recently, and having a real sword would inspire him.

Unfortunately, swords are only suitable for ceremonial purposes in military camps, not for actual combat. Therefore, there were no swords on the weapon rack this time.

Finally, he settled for a straight knife, which was barely usable.

"Alright, stop wasting time. You've already wasted a whole day." The square-faced officer waved his hand and said, "Let's go."

"Sir, where are we going?" someone asked.

"What you see before you is the entire grassland, which is your hunting ground."

The Dayan hunting party, consisting of one hundred people, was divided into ten teams and headed in different directions on the grassland.

Nine people followed behind Li Qingshan. He recognized Shen Ying, Qian Damu, and Zhang Ada.

"Captain, where are we going now?" Shen Ying couldn't help but ask.

Li Qingshan pretended to be deep in thought, but in reality, he was completely lost.

But even if you're a scoundrel, you can't let people see it, otherwise they'll lose respect for you.

"Follow me," Li Qingshan said in a steady voice.

Shen Ying watched Li Qingshan's retreating figure and wondered if he really did have something going on.

Everyone followed Li Qingshan deeper into the grassland.

"Look, a gazelle!"

Zhang Ada exclaimed in surprise, but by the time everyone looked over, the yellow sheep had already run away.

"Oh dear, what a pity," Zhang Ada said.

"What's so regrettable about a gazelle?" Li Qingshan said calmly.

Everyone looked at him and couldn't help but look at him with new respect.

As they continued walking, Shen Ying spotted another gray wolf.

"What's so regrettable about a gray wolf?" Li Qingshan said in a very indifferent tone.

Before they knew it, night had fallen. Li Qingshan instructed everyone to gather some dry firewood and start a campfire.

"Wait a minute."

Zhang Ada finally couldn't contain his dissatisfaction and walked up to Li Qingshan, saying, "You led us around all day, and we didn't even catch a single mouse. Do you even know how to hunt?!"

"Others carry animal-attracting incense, set traps, or track wild animals when they hunt. I've watched you wander around all day, and you haven't done anything."

"I heard he killed a tiger."

"Perhaps it was a dead tiger that he just happened to run into; such things do happen."

"Are you even capable? If not, then give up your position as captain." Zhang Ada finally revealed his true purpose.

"Okay," Li Qingshan said, "Now you're the captain."

"I……"

Zhang Ada was momentarily confused, wondering if he had misheard.

"Now, you're the captain. You decide what to do, and everyone will listen to you."

"I... I don't need your ridicule. To tell you the truth, we all come from humble backgrounds and want to use this to earn a better life for ourselves. If you don't have the ability, then don't hold everyone back," Zhang Ada said.

Li Qingshan cupped his hands in a gesture of respect.

"Brothers, this man is unreliable. Let's go and fight for our own future," Zhang Ada said.

People followed Zhang Ada one after another, heading deeper into the grassland.

Li Qingshan breathed a sigh of relief, finally relieved of the burden. He felt guilty if he had delayed them.

At this moment, Li Qingshan suddenly noticed that there were still two people beside him who hadn't left.

One is Shen Ying, and the other is Qian Damu.

Why don't you leave?

"Why would I leave?" Shen Ying raised an eyebrow. "Do you wish we'd leave?"

Li Qingshan frowned and thought for a moment: "Since you don't want to leave, then go and gather some firewood. Be careful, the nights on the grassland are not peaceful."

Shen Ying snorted coldly, but did not refuse.

Li Qingshan glanced at Shen Ying, who was bent over picking up firewood, and then at Qian Damu, who was not far from her. He already had a vague guess in his mind.

This woman is definitely extraordinary.
