Chapter 18: Snatching
"Have you ever seen someone like me?" Ansu grabbed Taimo's arm and asked, but the other party was confused, Ansu frowned fiercely, put aside Taimo, found Chief Samba, and asked the same question. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Nope." Chief Samba gasped and raised his chin in the direction the monster had disappeared, "Only this monster." ”
"Monsters?"
"Yes, a mutated giant orangutan that has been harassing us for almost six years." The Samba patriarch exhaled a heavy breath of turbid air from his chest, "I can't kill you, but it will kill many of us." During the dry season, it occupied our main water source, and now that the rainy season has moved far away, it is still being found by it. Alas, do we have to move away from the place where our ancestors have lived for generations? ”
Chief Samba exhaled the sullen anger in his heart before directing his people to dig a pit and bury their bodies. The Amanrans are buried wherever they die, and there is no fixed cemetery.
Taimo glanced at Ansu lonely as he walked over, and now he knew that Ansu really couldn't understand what he was saying, and he was now even more desperate to get the position of patriarch and learn that mysterious language. There are two ways in which the Amanra choose their chieftains: one is chosen by the sheikhs; The second is that the challenger defeats the incumbent chief. However, Temo slumped his shoulders in frustration, and had so far failed to challenge the chief.
However, he will not give up!
The young lad quickly regained his confidence and regained his fighting spirit.
In the cave on the rock wall, the faint morning light could not penetrate the darkness in the cave, and in the thick darkness, there was a figure huddled, like a solid rock.
"yes, I'm sorry......"
Due to yesterday's surprise attack by monsters, the Amanra settlement is significantly more heavily defended today, except for the addition of more sentinels, hunters who do not need to go out to hunt are constantly patrolling the vicinity of the settlement. The rest of the Amanrans did not dare to go a little further to pick the fruit and dig the rhizomes, and they hid in the settlements, tense their nerves.
Ansu asks Chief Samba about the location of the Great Rift Valley, searching for traces of the monster along the way. Chief Samba happily told Ansu the route, and finally did not forget to tell them that if he found any traces of monsters, he could come back and inform them, and they would come over to help.
"Don't you really need to send an escort?" Chief Samba asked again before leaving.
"No, you don't." Ansu refused.
A gust of wind swept across the grassland, the blades of grass shook and made a rustling sound, and the tall antelope, which was grazing with its head down, shook its ears, raised its head, and looked around vigilantly. There was still a sea of green all around, and the other gazelles were grazing quietly with their heads down. It chewed the grass in its mouth one by one, and doubts flashed in its big, round eyes, could it be an illusion? Swallowing the chewed grass, it walked around on its long legs, not noticing anything wrong, and went back to its original place to continue tasting the plump and juicy grass.
However, the moment it looked down, a strange change suddenly appeared, and a spear flew out of the grass, piercing its body and pinning it to the grass. The stilter screamed, and its hooves kicked violently for a while, gradually softening.
Ansu stood up from the grass, covered in dirt and grass clippings, perfectly camouflaged, and with her breathless breath blending with her surroundings, it was difficult to detect.
When Ansu left the Ammanra tribe, he did not take a stitch with him, but left the road alone. However, at this time, there are many animals on the grassland, and she does not have to worry about food.
The smell of blood spreads quickly, and there is no shortage of carnivores with a keen sense of smell in the steppe. In the time when Ansu pulled the spear back, there were already two young male lions, a group of vultures were eyeing each other, and the giant hyena herd had followed the smell of blood, but they left silently after seeing that it was Ansu, and they were still deeply impressed by the painful experience, some of them looked back while running, some were afraid that Ansu would catch up, and others wanted to see what would happen if those guys who didn't know whether they were alive or dead provoked that terrifying creature.
The two lions roared in a low voice as they approached, as if threatening. An Su raised his eyebrows, holding a spear on the ground, the blood stained with the spear was slowly flowing down, as if several blood-colored snakes were swimming.
It turned out to be a robbery? Interesting.
Vultures flew down from the sky and watched from a short distance. The antelope that used to graze here had long since run out at the moment of the accident. These vultures sensed danger and did not dare to approach easily, and the two adult male lions, they may not be able to run away, so they had to wait for an opportunity on the side.
The two male lions were adults, large and strong, with thick green brown fur hanging down to their chests, like a pair of green armor. His limbs are thick and powerful, and every step he takes leaves a deep mark on the ground. They roared at Ansu, baring their fangs, slowly circling in circles looking for an opportunity to attack. Ansu did not move as loose.
All that was left in the air was the incessant roar of the male lion. The vulture stretched its wings to the sky, tilted its head and opened its mouth in boredom, and suddenly its eyes lit up, and it jumped twice excitedly, and finally the fight began!
Ansu had been paying attention to the movements of the two lions, and when the lion pressed down her forelimbs and jumped up, she was already on guard, and she stepped aside, and at the same time shook her spear, turning into thousands of afterimages from the bottom up, and slapped it towards the neck of the male lion who had just landed. Pushed by a strong force, the male lion stood unsteadily, his body was crooked, and he staggered to the ground, overpowering a large patch of grass.
At the same time that lion fell to the ground, the attack of the other lion arrived. The spear in Ansu's hand shot out from under his armpit and poked into its nose.
Oh--
The lion's eyes were full of tears, the muscles on his face were shaking, and he grinned and took a few steps back.
Ansu withdrew his spear, glanced at them coldly, drew his dagger, and turned to prepare to dismember the goblin. But just as she turned, two lions pounced again, one opening their mouths to bite Ansu's arm, and the other attacking Ansu's calf. The lion's attack is generally to find a way to bring down the prey first, and then bite off the throat of the prey. As long as it is not pounced, the possibility of the prey escaping is relatively high.
It's a pity that Ansu is not the prey, she is the woman who stands at the top of the food chain.
Ansu bit the dagger, kicked away the male lion who was about to bite her calf, picked up the spear with both hands and swept it horizontally, with a crisp sound, the spear broke, and at the same time the male lion howled in pain, and his huge body was knocked away and smashed to the ground. The nearby vultures were immediately frightened and flapped their wings and screamed. The male lion struggled to get up, but soon collapsed, gasping for breath.
The other male lion, who had been kicked away, shook its massive head a few times and roared lowly, but did not dare to step forward.
Ansu threw the broken spears on the ground, glanced at them coldly, took the dagger from his mouth with his right hand, cut off one of the hind legs of the tall antelope, and carried it away, leaving a nearly intact corpse.
The male lion gasped for breath and waited a moment before staggering towards the carcass of the stilter. The vultures could no longer hold back, and a large group of hulala surrounded him, harassing the injured male lion and making him irritable. In the end, the male lion was so disturbed that he bit off the other hind leg of the tall gazelle and walked away. The other injured male lion fell to the ground for a long time before he struggled to his feet, but by this time, the sun had sunk into the horizon, and it sprayed a large patch of blood red on the earth, and the vultures suddenly scattered in all directions, revealing a mutilated white bone.
