Chapter 146: Abu
As one of the few strong men in a small tribe, led by Abu, once again came to hunt in this forest not very far from the tribe!
The flesh of various animals and some wild fruits that can be tried are the food sources that can survive for a long time for a tribe, and meat is the main one. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Because wild fruits are only available in a specific season and have a low storage period, animals that can be caught all year round are the best food for these primitive people to survive.
But after the arrival of winter, many animals are dormant in their secret nests, and there are few activities outside, so every winter, it is the off-season for these primitive people to hunt, and it is also the season when they are most likely to go hungry, and even, sometimes, there will be a small number of primitive people who are starved to death.
Therefore, every time before the winter is coming, each tribe will have strong primitive people to go out hunting frequently, and the prey caught must be dried and stored for the coming winter in addition to providing daily life.
Abu, the strongest primitive of their tribe, also bears the greatest responsibility, taking advantage of the cold winter to hunt as much food as he can.
As primitive people, they have already mastered the use of some simple stone tools, such as the stone spear in the hands of Abu and several primitive people beside him, which is to tie a sharpened stone to a stick.
This crudely made tool is the weapon they use for hunting, and it is easy to use and the effect is amazing.
Abu walked cautiously through the forest, trying not to make a noise under his feet.
Although they are here to hunt, sometimes the roles are reversed, and they will fall prey to some ferocious animals, so the highest vigilance must be maintained in the forest.
Silence!
Suddenly, looking at an animal not far away that was gnawing grass, Abu's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise at seeing his prey, and he turned around and gestured to the others to quiet and stop, and he continued to move forward cautiously and without making a sound, and the branches and leaves hanging on his body to cover his body became his most effective stealth magic weapon in this forest.
Eventually, Abu and the animal were getting closer and closer.
It's an animal like a dog, but it's much larger than a dog on Earth, big enough to compete with a sheep.
When there were still seven or eight meters away, Abu finally stopped, quietly raised the stone spear in his hand, and aimed at the animal not far away.
Like this kind of projection, any primitive person with the ability to hunt has been tempered and practiced and has mastered it very proficiently, not to mention a hundred shots, but within a certain distance, as long as the target is not detected, nine times out of ten will be shot.
This has become a skill of almost every primitive person, even if the woman and child are weak, they will be in contact from time to time, in case of emergency, anyway, as a primitive person, there is nothing else to do in daily life, and practicing projection can also be regarded as a kind of entertainment.
Shout!
Assured, Abu threw the stone spear out of his hand vigorously.
Chirp!
With a slight sound of sharp objects hitting the ground, the dog-like animal, unfortunately, was hit and fell to the ground with an unstable center of gravity.
The stone spear hit the dog-like animal's hind thigh, and although its body was not penetrated, it was also six or seven centimeters deep.
Suddenly, bright red blood flowed out frantically, staining a small area of the ground red.
Whining~
The animal's cry proved that it only looked like a dog, and its bark was completely different from that of a dog, and it struggled to get up from the ground and limped into the depths of the forest.
"Let's go, chase after us!" Abu said as he beckoned to the men behind him, in their own language.
The group nodded, followed Abu's pace, and chased after the animal that had been shot.
The dog-like animal is moving slower and slower, and running away makes its blood flow faster, and at the same time, excessive bleeding makes its spirit become very trance-like, and its feet become more and more weak.
In the end, before he was caught up by Abu and the others, he had already fallen to the ground, and his misty eyes looked like he was dying.
The Abu people, who had rushed over, took the prey and continued to march inside.
But at this moment, their faces have become very solemn, in addition to more and more careful steps, they are also looking around the environment.
Although the prey that had just been hit had been treated, there was still a faint smell of blood, which had little effect on ordinary herbivores, but it was easy to attract the ferocious carnivorous beasts of the forest.
As we move on, time passes little by little.
The next harvest was good, and the Abu and the others hunted several different animals.
Just as they were about to cull one or two more prey and prepare to sail back, something bad happened.
Several people were targeted by a common carnivore, and they looked at each other in pairs, and the Abu and the beast, which was not small, were full of vigilance on both sides.
Carrying the prey with him, Abu and the others did not have the impulse to escape, and this carnivorous beast seemed to know that the prey in his eyes was not easy to provoke, so he did not attack for the time being.
"What to do?" said the other primitive behind Abu, a little nervous, and said himself briefly in their language.
These primitive people have only mastered the language, and if they want to perfectly express their meaning when they communicate in ordinary times, they also need to match body language. But it is clear that in the current scenario, there is no way to act rashly.
"Be careful!" Abu said.
Although Abu was the strongest man in their tribe, he could not compete with these ferocious beasts, and many of the people in their tribe who went out hunting were killed by these beasts.
Therefore, some ferocious beasts, for every primitive man, the deterrent power is very great, did not run away immediately, but maintained composure, which is already a very good performance.
The beast seemed to be very patient, keeping an eye on Abu and the others, but did not come forward to attack, as if waiting for an opportune moment.
"Fight!" said a primitive man behind Abu as he gritted his teeth and expressed his grief and indignation.
"Don't!"
Seeing the actions of his companion beside him, Abu was shocked, and stretched out his hand to stop him, but he was one step too slow and missed.
I saw that this primitive man dropped his prey, grabbed the stone spear in his hand, and rushed towards the beast in front of him.
