Morning.

Daniel excitedly knocked on Liu Wei's door, this is Liu Wei's third night in the duty room of the management area.

Liu Wei opened the door in a daze, the sunlight was a little dazzling, and he squinted at Daniel.

"Liu Wei, come with me!" Daniel hurriedly reached out and pulled Liu Wei.

Liu Wei casually picked up the live broadcast room and rushed over with Daniel.

Liu Wei's consciousness is still vague, and he doesn't know what happened early in the morning?

Ran a few hundred meters.

The river was full of people.

Could it be that the crocodile was caught?

Quickly turned on the live broadcast, and the audience who had just entered the live broadcast room was also confused.

Daniel paused to take a breath and said, "The government has agreed to capture the man-eating crocodile, and the TV station has sent a photographer to record the whole capture process!"

Liu Wei said curiously: "Do you mean you caught it?"

Daniel shook his head, "No, because they failed once before, the Manobo people thought they had offended the gods, so before capturing the man-eating crocodile, the sorcerers in the stockade would sacrifice by the river and ask the gods for forgiveness!"

Liu Wei was puzzled: "Don't the Manobo people believe in Christianity?"

Daniel nodded, "The tribe still retains the traditional sacrificial customs!"

"Do you still have to sacrifice to catch crocodiles?"

"It feels so superstitious!"

"Respect people's customs and be a quiet spectator!"

"It's shocking to see the scene!"

Liu Wei: "Brothers, let's just watch quietly!"

Take the live broadcast room and move it to the front of the sacrifice site.

There were two wooden tables on the grass by the river, and there were many white plates on the tables, and it was obvious that they had carefully cleaned them, and the white reflection was reflective.

White plates with fruit and some local food.

An old woman dressed in blood-red satin stood in front of a wooden table, spreading her hands to the sky, raising her head to look at the dazzling sun.

Her purple lips were shaking at high frequency.

"Brothers, she is supposed to be the sorcerer of the stockade, if I guess correctly, she is talking to the gods of the Manobo envelope at this time, as for what is being said, I can't hear clearly!" Liu Wei guessed.

Daniel walked up to Liu Wei and took the initiative to introduce: "The wizard is talking to the gods and asking for forgiveness from the gods!"

"Is it convenient to translate what the wizard said?" asked Liu Wei.

Daniel nodded and translated: "Beloved gods, we have no intention of offending you, we have been punished, we are here to beg your forgiveness, if you can hear our plea, please show us the direction of the demon and bless our brave children of the Manobo people to overcome it!"

Then came a series of incantations that Daniel couldn't translate.

The audience in the live broadcast room watched the sacrifice activities of the primitive tribe for the first time, and they all found it very interesting, and some thought it was ridiculous, but the barrage was quite harmonious.

After the sorcerer had finished chanting the incantation, she suddenly opened her eyes and spun around her, her eyes looking around at all the Manobo people who had participated in today's ritual.

She stood back in her place.

The hunter, who had already been prepared by the river, carried a large white goose in his hand and cut off the goose's neck with a knife, and another hunter held a plastic basin to catch the goose's blood.

After waiting for the blood to drain, splash the goose blood from the basin into the river.

Immediately after, the sound of a pig was heard from the back of the crowd.

A large adult fat pig was tied to a wheelbarrow and pushed up.

The big fat pig seemed to know his fate and struggled hard, but the rope was tied so tightly that only the head, buttocks, and limbs facing the sky could twist a little.

"Hahaha, Bajie was also brought up!"

"Bajie: Senior brother, come and save me!"

"Sun Wukong: You idiot, you deserve it!"

"It seems that the Manobo people have a great respect for their gods, and there are so many things to sacrifice!"

Liu Wei flipped the camera, and the hunter stabbed the throat of the big fat pig, took two basins of blood, and splashed the pig's blood into the river as before.

At this time, the wizard once again spread his hands and spoke to the gods.

Daniel translated, "Beloved deity, I beg you to tell us the direction of the demon?"

After reciting a series of mantras, he suddenly opened his eyes, turned back to the east, and said with a nervous face: "The devil is in the east, brave Manobo hunters, take up your weapons and capture it!

After listening to this, Liu Wei raised his eyebrows.

Like the audience in the live broadcast room, I think it's too godly!

It's a bit ridiculous to point out the direction, and even the time to capture the bay crocodile can be determined, and I can only admire it in my heart.

All the villagers onlookers prayed with their hands on their chests.

After the sacrifice, the three hunters who participated in the sacrifice took their tools and prepared to go in the direction indicated by the wizard to catch the bay crocodile.

Daniel took the initiative to walk up and greet them.

He introduced Liu Wei: "Liu Wei, this is Maniga, the leader of the hunters who hunted and killed man-eating crocodiles ten years ago, and he has a wealth of hunting experience.

Maniga, this is Liu Wei, a wildlife research expert who came to help us. ”

"Hello!"

"Hello!"

Liu Wei and Maniga greeted each other.

"Can I walk with you?" Liu Wei pleaded.

"We need brave people!" Maniga looked at Liu Wei for a moment.

Liu Wei smiled and said, "I have fought with crocodiles in the water!"

Maniga looked at Daniel, who nodded, proving what Liu Wei said, he had seen Liu Wei's video.

"Beloved gods, please bless this warrior to catch demons with us!" Maniga made a few prayer gestures.

Liu Wei followed them.

The Agusan Marsh is the largest wetland reserve in the Philippines, and the Manobo people's stockade is built on the water and crisscrossed by rivers.

Liu Wei got on the hunters' boat and rowed to the edge of the aquatic grass on the other side of the water.

Maniga and the hunters went ashore and began to set traps, the same way they had been hunting a decade earlier, with a piece of fat cut from a large fat pig for sacrifice.

The iron rods that pass through the pork are tied at both ends with tough wire ropes, which form a triangular frame with the rebar, and the other end of the rope hangs from a tree on the shore.

"That's it?"

"The Manobo are too poor in hunting, right?

"This trap reminds me of a sentence after the break, Jiang Taigong fishes the wisher to take the bait!"

"Hahaha, don't say it, really, are crocodiles so stupid?

Liu Wei walked over and asked, "Can you explain the principle of this trap?"

Maniga said, "That's how our ancestors caught man-eating crocodiles!

Faced with the questions in the live broadcast room, Liu Wei could only act as a commentator, and he took the set trap and said: "Brothers, don't look at this trap is very simple, but it is very practical.

First of all, the sense of smell of the bay crocodile is very sensitive, if it is often active in this water, it will definitely find the food here, I have talked about it when I gave you science popularization of the crocodile before, many of the behavior of the crocodile comes from the instinctive reaction of its body, such as attack, resistance, including predation, the same is true of the bay crocodile, when it smells the food, it rarely uses its brain to think, but out of the instinct of foraging to bite up.

If you look at this trap again, once the crocodile bites it, its teeth will definitely get stuck in the steel bar, and then its instinctive reaction is to struggle hard, and when it struggles, the ropes on both sides will tie its upper jaw with the gravity response, this trap uses a simple movable buckle principle. ”
