Yang Shubao and the international students stayed on the edge of the dock and waited, and Sanduomen took the others to set up the hunting rack.

Hippos have a regular movement, they come ashore in the morning and evening in search of food, and the lake is home to numerous papyrus and wild sugar cane, which are their favorites.

When they come ashore, they don't run around, but follow the rules and then retreat, much like crocodiles.

Sandomen and the others waited for a hippopotamus to come ashore and go to find wild sugar cane to eat, and they placed the assembled hunting frame on the hippopotamus' driving path, waiting for the hippo to come back and step into the trap.

The hippopotamus hunting frame is a bit like a spring gun, its trap is a pedal, and when the hippopotamus steps on it, the steel gun with a blood groove will fly head-on and shoot the hippopotamus in the neck from the bottom up to kill it.

After setting up the hunting rack, Sandomen brought the men back, and they began to find some more tangled nets from their backpacks, and began to carefully put them away.

Yang Shubao asked, "Do you want to fish later?"

"It's not fishing, it's shrimping, there are a lot of monodon shrimp here, they grow fat and big, and every time we catch river pigs, we will also catch some monodon shrimp by the way, and they are better than river pork after grilling." ”

To catch giant shrimp, you have to travel by canoe, and Yang Shubao stays away from it.

The returning hippo was shot, and Sandomon and his people shouted excitedly: "It's dead." "There was meat to eat in the evening. "Hurry up, prepare, hurry up, it's going back to the lake." ”

The hippopotamus has thick skin and rough flesh, and it did not die directly after being shot, but ran quickly into the lake and sank to avoid it under the stimulation of pain.

A red float ball is tied to the end of the gun with a rope so that it can be found wherever the hippopotamus dies.

However, the hippopotamus is tenacious, and although it suffers a fatal blow, it will not die quickly, so Sandomen and the others must first row a small boat to catch giant prawns.

They eagerly invited Yang Shubao and others to get on the boat together, but Lao Yang really didn't dare to take this boat.

Lin Lin was not intimidated, although she didn't like the fact that the Xhosa people hunted hippos for food, but shrimp fishing had nothing to do with hippos, and she was still quite interested in riding a canoe, so she accepted the invitation to sit on a small boat with Sandomen face to face.

Xie Danfeng and the others were also bold, and when they saw Lin Lin on the boat, they also went up, and in the end, Lao Yang was left alone on the dock.

The giant shrimp produced in the lake were unexpectedly large, and when the sun set and the canoe came back, he saw the shrimp he had caught, the largest of which was as long as his palm, like Argentine red shrimp.

There was a canoe with a red floating ball tied to it, and the dead hippopotamus was floated on the water and dragged back, just looking at this killing method, Yang Shubao didn't want to eat this kind of game.

Of course, no matter how he killed wild animals, Yang Shubao would not eat them, and he was deeply puzzled by this: Our ancestors spent thousands of years domesticating chickens, ducks, geese, cattle, sheep, pigs and other poultry and livestock to provide people with safe and high-quality meat sources.

The young man who had gone back to call for people arrived with a group of people, and they skillfully tied the hippopotamus to the wooden frame, and then carried it back to the town to begin to clean up.

Africans are the wildest when it comes to eating, and in front of them they are a younger brother.

The chief warmly invited Lao Yang and his party to watch them clean up the hippopotamus, but Lao Yang politely declined his invitation in order to be able to eat later.

As in the celebrations of the San, Timit and Tata tribes, the Grand Chief held an open-air barbecue in the town square.

In this regard, Lao Yang only admires the Arrow Land tribe, and it is not a waste of fame that people can become a tribe with the title of chieftain, and the two treats in the Grand Palace make him remember it very deeply, not only are people dancing and serving, but the environment for eating is also very elegant.

The first few times he participated in this kind of bonfire banquet, Lao Yang was quite interested, but now he has no feelings.

He doesn't eat game and doesn't like loud singing and dancing, and when the novelty of the campfire has passed, the occasion is boring.

For Lao Yang, the best way to feast is to find a restaurant to stew a pot of pig-killing dishes, and the brothers push the cup to change the lamp and brag.

The hippopotamus meat was divided into several large pieces and roasted on the bonfire, and Yang Shubao saw that some of the whole pieces of meat looked like a basketball, so he asked in surprise: "Can this be roasted?"

After drinking a glass of wine, the chief laughed and laughed: "White people like to eat whole raw steak and near-raw steak when they eat steak, and some of them are brought to the table as soon as they are ripe, and our heat will definitely be greater than the steak they eat." ”

When Yang Shubao heard this, he didn't dare to touch this meat.

Fortunately, Sandomen and others caught a lot of monodon shrimp, and they used bamboo skewers to penetrate the heads of the monodon shrimp and roast them, and soon the shrimp shells turned red.

At this time, you can't eat it, and you have to wait until the shrimp shell turns black to mean that the heat is suitable.

After roasting, the shrimp meat was completely detached from the shrimp shell, and Yang Shubao took a shrimp and flicked it with his fingers, and a whole shrimp meat came out.

White, tender, shiny, and steaming, this shrimp meat looks appetizing.

Only about a dozen people attended the bonfire dinner, and except for Yang Shubao and the international students, the others were the faces of the tribe.

These people were usually calm and polite, but when they saw the bonfire and drank wine, they immediately became different, and they got up and danced around the bonfire, and the chief himself waved for an elephant skin drum, and banged it to cheer them up.

Uncle Yang eats grilled shrimp with relish, this shrimp meat is very tender, with the unique sweet taste of freshwater river shrimp, which is different from sea shrimp, and it is really a pleasure to eat this fresh food.

Although the ghost shrimp he had eaten in the resort town also tasted great, the ghost shrimp was small and not as enjoyable to eat.

The flames crackled as the wood burned, and some flying insects flew towards the flames, and they could not fly out of the fire.

The hippopotamus meat is roasted, and everyone begins to feast.

Yang Shubao doesn't eat these, so he specializes in dealing with giant shrimp.

When they have eaten and drunk and left, then some people come to the campfire, where they gather up the leftovers and continue dancing around the campfire.

Yang Shubao looked back, and after a while, hundreds of people arrived, the elephant skin drum kept ringing, and the people dancing around the bonfire had to revel until midnight.

Xie Danfeng admires this very much: "South Africans are really born with a talent for dancing, as long as they are given a bonfire, it doesn't matter what they eat and drink, they can dance if they have a bonfire, they can be happy if they can dance, they are really easy to satisfy." ”

"You're not right, we do like to dance, but we also like to enjoy life, we like to eat good food and drink sweet and pure water, but we don't, so we have to dance," Kurutantan said. ”

At this point, he clenched his fists and waved them twice: "I want to change the status quo of our tribe, and we must not continue like this." ”
