Reborn stone tools to farm

Chapter 21 Take the initiative

The foot-thick snow made a faint creaking sound under the feet, which was unavoidable even if they slowed down. Using the thick trees as cover, the group of people walked forward slowly.

Under a slope not far away, in the shelter of a half-height bush, several wolf cubs are rolling and playing on the snow. sound.

Just as Feng was about to say something, Song raised his hand to stop him, and said in a low voice, "Go, go back first."

Song looked around at the surrounding environment, secretly remembering it in his heart, and walked back the same way he walked.

They have been searching for more than half a month, but the pack of wolves did not leave.

Ever since they discovered the traces of wolves, they did not dare to hunt too far away. They lived on some small prey such as hares for half a month. The nearby prey became less and less, and they never saw any traces of wolves again, so they grew up. The courage to explore outside.

One day, the heavy snow just stopped, and Song, who was keen to observe, found the remaining hare hair with fresh blood.

After going back to the clan to discuss, Tang Zheng proposed to suspend hunting, relying on the fish in the fish pond to eat for a period of time, and devote all his energy to finding the wolf's den.

Song, who has the most experience, summed up the fighting power of the clansmen, and took the lead in agreeing to the proposal when he thought it was feasible. After all, they are all bloody men, and they want to give it a go after being aggrieved for so long. The old grandmother thought for a while and finally nodded .

The wolves were out looking for food and would come back at some point. The men didn't dare to delay, and ran all the way back to the clan out of the warning range of the female wolf. Tang Zheng knew the whereabouts of the wolves when they came back very early today.

"How is it?" Tang Zheng asked and handed over the usual warm water one by one.

He ran in a hurry, the cold wind made his mouth dry and sore, he drank the water in the bowl with a sigh of relief, and said after a long breath: "The south, it takes half a day to get there, the wolf pack has gone out, and I don't know when I will come back." .”

"Grandmother, what should we do now?" Bee on the side wiped the water stains from the corner of his mouth because he drank so quickly, he was still panting while speaking.

The old grandmother was silent for a while, then shook her head and looked at Tang Zheng: "Hazel, come on, I don't understand this."

There has always been a clear division of labor within the clan. Although the old grandmother has sovereignty over the overall situation, she doesn't know much about hunting and fighting. Tang Zheng didn't pretend to shirk at this time, nor did she pat her chest in response. She just said: "Sit first, let me Think about it."

Tang Zheng sat down on the floor, propping her head up to think of countermeasures. The other clansmen looked at each other and had to sit down, consciously not to disturb her by making a sound.

Judging from the situation seen last time, the size of the wolves at the top of sixteen would not deviate too much.The biggest problem is that, with the addition of the newly joined Wu tribe, there are only 12 people in combat power. The racial ability of hand-to-hand combat has already fallen behind. If the number cannot keep up, even if the equipment is improved, it will be a bloody battle. .

The most primitive way for humans to drive away wild animals is to use fire, followed by making traps.

Tang Zheng can make torches, but animals like wolves can endure hunger, and the longer they are hungry, the crazier they will be. I am afraid that they will go crazy with hunger after so long in winter.Besides, it doesn't matter if their eyesight can't keep up in night battles. During the day, holding a torch takes up one hand, which will inevitably be cumbersome and more uncomfortable.

Then the only thing to do is to make traps, which are labor-saving, fast and effective traps. What should I use?

"Song, what do you think?" After thinking for a while, Tang Zheng decided to ask Song for his opinion. After all, he is the authority here and must have his own unique insights.

As if he had already had an idea, Song immediately answered: "The woods are dense, now that I have a bow, it's much easier to shoot standing on the tree."

Tang Zheng slapped his head, and then remembered that wolves can't climb trees. It was really useless to assume so many plans before.

"Rest today, and we'll set off early tomorrow morning!" With a clue, Tang Zheng also spoke with a hint of pride. The experience of hunting wolves was unprecedented.

"What!" Everyone was shocked, and said in unison: "You want to go too?!"

Tang Zheng was a little puzzled, "What's the matter? There are still many things that haven't been arranged, so what if I don't go."

"But..." I was speechless for a while, and everyone looked at the old grandmother.

"Forget it, let her go." The old grandmother shook her hand, looking helpless, the child is too old to control what to do, and everyone has their own opinions.

Seeing Tang Zheng beaming with joy, the men didn't say anything anymore. At worst, let her stay in the tree and protect her more. As long as she can win, a group of big men may not hurt a child, right? There is still some confidence.

Because of this matter, Tang Zheng was very happy for the next half day, probably because a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and even a little excited, and the high mood lasted until before going to bed at night.

"What's the matter?" Tang Zheng inevitably felt a little strange that Jing, who should have fallen asleep at this point, hadn't dozed off yet.

The body in his arms paused, but she didn't respond, but the hand on his waist tightened again.

Rubbing the little head on her chest, Tang Zheng gently comforted Jing's emotions. Although she didn't know what was going on, she could clearly feel Jing's slight nervousness.

Jing was dependent on her, but she seldom hugged herself tightly like this. Tang Zheng felt even more weird.

"Jing?"

Calling again, Tang Zheng settled down and waited patiently for her to respond.

After an unknown amount of time, a slight movement finally came from below. Jing moved her body and looked up at her, "You are going to find the wolf."

Tang Zheng was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered the situation when he rescued Jing Shi before. It seemed that it had left a shadow, and he had been depressed since the afternoon, was he worried about her?

"I'll be fine." Tang Zheng annoyed herself for being careless. She didn't notice something was wrong after so long. She hugged the little girl again, pressed her head to her neck, and patted her back with the other hand Comforting: "I promise I will come back before dark, and I won't get hurt."

After a pause, Jing gave a soft "hmm", let go of Tang Zheng's clothes, and hugged her waist again, as if sticking closer would give her a greater sense of security.

Tang Zheng patted Jing's back rhythmically to lull her to sleep, until the little body in her arms slowly relaxed, and the sound of steady shallow breathing came from her ears before she settled down and closed her eyes.

------------------

"Be careful." Tang Zheng said solemnly to Wu under the tree.

They came here with their weapons at dawn today. At noon, the sun is high above the head but there is no temperature. The snow covered the calf and it is difficult to walk, which greatly affects the battle. Fortunately, the wolves seem to have hunted the prey. I didn't go out today, and I was drying my belly a hundred meters away.

Tang Zheng and the others were under a slope, and the wolves couldn't find them. Most of them had already climbed the trees. Wu was responsible for leading the wolves over in this operation, which was a very important part. He faced the wolves alone. group, quite dangerous.

"Don't worry, look at me!" Wu patted his chest, smiled heartily, waved goodbye to everyone and walked up the hillside.

After passing the hillside, gray and white wolves were very obvious in the snow-white environment in the distance. When Wu got closer to 80 meters, the nearest one pricked up its ears to look at him, and bared its teeth, causing arousal. The alert of the entire wolf pack.

Wu took a deep breath to strengthen himself, clenched the bamboo bow in his hand, drew an arrow from his back and put it on the string, and shot at the wolves.

The arrow pierced into the snow among the wolves with a slight sound of piercing through the air, causing the leader wolf to arch its body, and quickly jumped off the rock showing its status. .

Wu quickly turned around and ran away. The wolves were running very fast in the snow, and the distance of 80 meters was pulled in half in a blink of an eye. Wu looked back at the wolves behind him, and could even feel the sharpness of their canine teeth.

While running away, he slung the bamboo bow back behind his back. Wu Da strode forward and slid down the slope in front of him with a sliding shovel. Before three or two donkeys rolled around, the wolves were already chasing him. behind.

Also taking advantage of the downward angle of the slope, the speed of the wolves became more and more fierce. In their eyes, the stumbling human was destined to be today's feast. They opened their mouths ferociously, and they were about to bite his flesh. Suddenly, snowflakes splashed, and a rope suddenly appeared, stumbling over his knees, and the alpha wolf fell forward with many wolves behind him, and fell to the ground violently in various postures.

This is the simplest method Tang Zheng came up with to keep the wolves, the horse-trapping rope, the rope used by cavalrymen to trip horses in ancient wars.

Early on, Xiong and a man named Zhi Zhi were ambush in the snow holding both ends of the vines. He and Xiong were also good at fighting, and his fierce appearance stood out among the generally thin Wu people.

Even though the two of them were born with great strength and had made enough preparations, they were still holding onto the rope and were thrown on their backs on the snowy ground by the pounced wolves. They were dragged several meters away, turned over and got up from the ground. Follow the nearest tree and start climbing.

"Come up quickly!" From the tree closest to Wu, Zhang shouted eagerly to him, and at the same time bent down and stretched out his hand to respond.

Wu hurriedly got up from the ground, hugged the tree two or three times and ran up, holding Zhang's hand, and sat on the thick branch with his help.

"Phew, I was scared to death." Wu said, the hands supporting his sides were still trembling slightly. Just now, two wolves even fell beside him, and the previous wolf almost bit his ass!The hairs on the back of the neck stood up, and cold sweat broke out on the forehead. Now thinking about it, I feel scared.

"Hey, isn't it all right?" Zhang patted him on the back, and the crow almost fell from the tree again when he couldn't sit still.

"You're looking for death!" Wu glared at Zhang angrily, but Da Lengtian's men were sweating profusely.

With a sneer, Zhang drew the bowstring to the wolves below, "Don't talk about it, it will be over in a while."

Gazing at him, Wu took off the bamboo bow on his body, stretched the bow to the maximum at the wolf under the tree, and shot an arrow fiercely. howling.

The author has something to say: Kneeling...I feel like the whole world is calling me short recently.

I'm going to work!Happy weekend cuties!
