086 - Hunting

In the cave, the witch who was sitting and talking in the distance with the old patriarch was a little absent-minded, she turned her head to look at the thief from time to time, and every time she saw the thief feeding the snow and drinking soup, she couldn't help but feel a little sour in her heart.

She stood up with a pout, and the old patriarch was startled, and asked in a panic, "Wizard, what's wrong with you?

The witch blushed and was a little nervous: "It's nothing, I, I'll go to the warrior and say something." ”

The old patriarch breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, patted his chest incessantly, and said, "I'm scared to death, I thought something was wrong." ”

The witch bowed her head and did not answer, but walked quickly to the thief's side.

"Warrior, I have something to say to you. The witch forced her composure, but her flushed face was a little out of place.

Ji Thief looked up, "What? ”

The witch looked left and right, and saw that no one was paying attention to her, so she squatted down in front of the thief and said, "Warrior, don't you think that we have a big problem to solve now?"

"What?" the thief was a little puzzled, and always felt that the witch was talking in a fog.

"For example, prey. You see, according to the current speed of Ah Niu, we can only get two prey a day, and the tribesmen don't have enough to eat, let alone hand over to the Montenegrin tribe, what if the Montenegrin tribe comes to ask for prey, what if we can't hand it over. The witch asked.

Speaking of this, the thief couldn't help but dignified, yes, this is a big problem, in the embarrassing stage of only having a total of twelve laborers in his hands, how can he get forty prey? Although he wants to wait for the clansmen to recover and work hard to hunt to make up for this number, what if the clansmen recover slowly?

There's no telling when they'll get better.

If it's not good in 10 days, or 10 days, it's a big problem.

No, I'll have to figure out a way for myself.

Thinking about it, Ji Thief put down the bowl in his hand and said, "Otherwise, I'll go with Ah Niu and them tomorrow." ”

The witch's eyes widened, "Warrior, are you going too?"

Ji Thief nodded: "Yes, by the way, I will collect some licorice back, the ones I picked before are not enough." ”

"But warrior, you, are you okay?" the witch never expected that the thief would say that he also participated in the hunt, and for a while, she couldn't help but question the thief.

She has never seen a thief hunt, how can she believe that a thief can hunt successfully?

Meeting the witch's gaze, Ji Thief smiled, and he patted his chest: "Man, there is no time when it can't be done." ”

Witch: "???"

"Okay, let's have a good rest tonight, tomorrow morning, I will go out with Ah Niu, and in the tribe, it will be handed over to the patriarch and you. Ji Thief said.

The witch came to her senses and nodded.

The thief fed Xue a little more soup, and then everyone blew out the bonfire, and they fell asleep together in the cave.

Since the loss of the wooden door, everyone can only rely on each other to have a sense of security in their hearts.

When the dawn of the next day came, the thief woke up early, pulled up the iron spear, cleaned up neatly, and after explaining the relevant matters, he led the eight tribesmen, including Niuusma, out of the valley and into the mountains and forests.

This is the thief's first hunt, and he has no experience, but he behaves like most rookies.

also knew that hunting was not his forte, so the thief handed over the command to Ah Niu.

It's just that after a morning, they are just wasting their strength, and the large animal group is not afraid of them, and even dares to attack them to protect their companions who are hit by the flying stone rope.

The small group of animals ran when they saw them, and the speed was far beyond the ability of the thief and the others to catch up.

One morning passed, and the hands of the people were empty.

Ji Thief was a little deflated in his heart, although judging from Ah Niu's expressions, such a result was normal.

But the thief has a kind of self-inflicted with him today, and if he still brings back the poor two-headed antelope, then what's the use of coming out by himself?

"Lord Warrior, why don't we rest for a while?" Ah Niu, who was looking for the way in front, suddenly said.

The thief, who felt a little tired, hummed and nodded.

So the crowd scattered and sat under the tree to rest, and a few thirsty people kept swallowing their saliva.

After a busy morning, Ji Thief also felt that his throat was a little smoking, and he pinched his throat with his hand and shook his head left and right.

"Lord Warrior, shall I go and get you some water?" Ah Niu asked when he saw the appearance of Ji Thief.

Ji Thief waved his hand: "No, I'm okay now, I'm not very thirsty." ”

Originally didn't catch the prey and caused anxiety, if you waste everyone's precious physical strength because of yourself, then the thief will blame himself very much.

It doesn't help a little and adds to the chaos.

Seeing that the thief refused, Ah Niu had no choice but to sigh and sit on the ground without speaking.

The thief fanned the wind with his hand, untied the animal skin on his upper body, and cooled it.

"Ah Niu. The thief shouted.

Ah Niu hurriedly agreed: "What's the matter, Lord Warrior?"

"Did you hunt like this before?" asked the thief.

Ah Niu nodded: "Yes, everyone hunts like this, most of the time they are looking for prey to start, there are too many of them, we can't take them, if the number is too small, those things are very alert." ”

Usma interjected, "Usually a small number of animals are driven out of the group because of old age, they are very experienced, and they run away at the slightest movement. ”

Ji Thief nodded, understanding this truth.

In the jungle, it has always been the world of animals, compared to humans, they are more patient, more experienced, and the idea of living is stronger, it can be said that every animal is a master of survival, hunting, it is really not so easy.

"By the way, Lord Warrior, why don't you see the Bladetooth Tiger?"

Just as the thief was thinking about something, Usma suddenly asked.

Ji Thief was stunned: "Bladetooth Tiger, didn't it follow us?"

"No, I don't. ”

Ji Thief stood up with a thud and asked anxiously, "Damn, when did it disappear?" ”

It was also seen that the expression on the thief's face did not seem to be fake, and Usma shook a wit: "This, I don't know about this, Lord Warrior, I, I just haven't seen it for a long time." ”

"Did it meet some other predator?" asked Ah Niu, his eyes wide.

Ji Thief stood up with a snort: "Go find it." ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard the sound of leaves rubbing against each other in the jungle.

Hearing the sound, everyone hurriedly grabbed their weapons and aimed them in the direction from which the sound came.

The thief also stood up with the trunk of the tree and held the iron spear in front of him.

Although Ji Thief doesn't have much experience in the jungle, he also knows that the jungle is the strong, and there is no fair competition.

It is very likely that while you are looking for prey, you are being targeted by other, more powerful predators.

The frequency of the grass and trees shaking was even higher, and everyone couldn't help but sweat, and the hands holding the weapons involuntarily tightened by two points.

The birds in the trees also felt the tense atmosphere, and they stopped singing.

For a while, in the huge mountain forest, there was only the sound of the wind and the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer.

"Later, if you lose the fight, you can run a few runs. Ji Thief lowered his voice.

Everyone nodded, and Ah Niu responded, "Warrior, you go first." ”

Ji Thief just wanted to speak, but he didn't want to, and the bushes in front of him, which were more than one person tall, suddenly parted.

With a brush, a head poked out of the bushes.

"Blade, Bladetooth Tiger?"

Looking at each other, the thief looked at it, and it looked at the thief.

After a long time, the thief reacted, put away the iron spear and ran up, and couldn't help but complain and said, "Where have you been?"

The blade-toothed tiger looked up at the thief, and there was a bunch of fruit in its mouth, and when the thief asked him, he whined twice, opened his mouth, and put the fruit at the thief's feet.

"You're going to get fruit for everyone?" asked the thief in surprise.

The blade-toothed tiger whined in response.

"Really, the next time you leave, it's okay to say hello, everyone's worried about you. Ji Thief couldn't help but complain.

The Bladetooth Tiger lowered his head, like a child who had done something wrong.

In the past, he picked up the fruit and gave it to everyone, and the thief comforted everyone and said, "Okay, okay, don't be nervous, don't be nervous, sit down and rest first." ”

As he spoke, he wiped the fruit off the skin, opened his mouth and took a bite into his mouth.

Hmm, it's a little sour.

Ji Thief wrinkled his face, this fruit was like drinking vinegar, just one sip, let his saliva flow down the corners of his mouth.

It's so sour!

He barely swallowed the fruit, and just as the thief was about to ask where the blade-toothed tiger got such a sour fruit, he heard a series of strange sounds in the air, along with the wind.

For a while, Ji Thief's newly relaxed spirit tensed again.
