Chapter 41: The Battle of the Prehistoric Spotted Hyena

There was nothing to do all night, Qiu Hao got up very early, it was estimated that it was only six o'clock in the morning, he took out the bread from his backpack and nibbled it himself, and fed seven spirit dogs to eat cooked beef, and after resting for ten minutes, he began to pack up the tent, which was to transfer the position.

Looking back, I still wanted to build a house with cement here, but now that I think about it, I take it for granted, after picking ginseng from a snow-capped mountain, then I need to move to another snow-capped mountain, and then go farther and farther, where will I have time to come back and live?

The big snow mountain goes north and south, 1,500 or 600 meters high, the span is very large, and the surrounding several snow mountains of the same size are connected, Qiu Hao walked for two hours, and after a few breaks on the way, he came to the foot of the second snow mountain out of breath, he named the snow mountain in front of him as the No. 2 snow mountain, and the far place in the south, it can be expected that there will be No. 3 snow mountain and No. 4 snow mountain and so on in the future.

The trek was not all smooth sailing, as there was a pack of gray wolves, two large and two small, who were eating an animal with horns on its head that looked like a moose.

When the grey dog and the gray wolf met each other and saw that they were about to fight, Qiu Hao restrained the greyhound, he thought that it was okay for the wolf dog to fight, but it was okay if there was no need to fight, and the most important thing at the moment was undoubtedly to hurry.

Fortunately, the greyhounds were obedient, and the group of gray wolves were not stupid, they were victorious when they kept the deer corpse, so they didn't chase after Qiu Hao and his party when they saw them moving away.

Looking back at the No. 2 Snow Mountain, this snow mountain is not peculiar in terms of shape, except that the height is slightly shorter than the No. 1 Snow Mountain, that is, the snow mountain where the ginseng was first collected, and the surface is still covered with wind and snow, and there are upright cedars.

At the foot of the mountain, Qiu Hao set up the tent again, and then urged the spirit dogs to go up the mountain to collect ginseng together.

Qiu Hao came to the new place and found that there were indeed a lot more ginseng, and it was similar to No. 1 Snow Mountain, there seemed to be powerful large carnivores here, but the number was still scarce, this situation made him a little puzzled, could it be that there were not many fierce beasts 15,000 years ago?

This question can be given to seven spirit dogs, and the answer they gave is that there are fierce beasts in the No. 2 Snow Mountain, not to mention anything else, the gray wolf must have it, and there are also three or four fierce beast breaths, but the type cannot be determined.

There is no way to confirm the species, but Qiu Hao is not so strange, because he clearly knows that the spirit dogs under his command have only seen gray wolves, as for tigers, bears, leopards, wild boars or something, they have never been photographed at all, so naturally they can't analyze who the smell is.

Sometimes Qiu Hao himself even wondered if those beasts could be the first to discover him from a distance of 100 meters, so he couldn't find them in the psionic detector, but when he thought about it, he felt that it was impossible, first, he felt that they couldn't be so timid that they didn't even dare to see people, and second, he was a telescope, and he could probe hundreds of kilometers away, but so far there have been no major discoveries, and it is indeed very strange.

For this reason, Qiuhao specially checked the prehistoric materials and finally learned something about the beasts of the Ice Age.

Fifteen thousand years ago, this age should correspond to the end of the Pleistocene, and it was also the ice age of mass extinction, and now in Eurasia, saber-toothed tigers are absolutely unseen, because they disappeared as early as 200,000 years ago, but there are still a small number of saber-toothed tigers left in the Americas, and it will take another 5,000 years to become extinct.

After talking about the saber-toothed tiger, let's talk about the dire wolf, the latter will also not appear in China, because it and the saber-toothed tiger are both unique beasts in the Americas, and it seems that at this period of the earth, most of the powerful ancient animals were in the Americas.

As for moa and moa, they were hung up millions of years ago, and the "moa" touted by the original time and space is actually similar to ostriches and emus, and they are still vegetarians, and their predatory is not as strong as the legend.

This period, in general, should be the era of hardy beasts - mammoths and woolly rhinos, but these two seem to live in the grasslands at higher latitudes, such as the Mongolian steppe, and there are also in the interior, but there are certainly not as many grasslands, the Changbai Mountains are very close to the Mongolian steppe, maybe just walk west for a few days, you can see their majestic figures.

Just, why meet them? Is it just for the sake of taking pictures, jokes, that's dangerous! According to historical records, whether it is a mammoth or a woolly rhinoceros, the temperament is really fierce, the fangs are long, and the trampling is natural, Qiu Hao doesn't want to die young!

If you want to talk about the carnivorous beasts of this period in China, that is, tigers, lions, bears, leopards, gray wolves, spotted hyenas, wild boars, etc., there are also some cave lions and cave hyenas from Siberia, they learned to endure hunger and frost in the ice age when things were scarce, and often acted alone!

The Changbai Mountains are located in the northeast, and the number one beast is the tiger, to be more precise, the famous Siberian tiger, or perhaps the Siberian tiger.

The Siberian tiger is three meters long, the tail is one meter, and it weighs six or seven hundred pounds, this size can definitely be proud of the gray wolf, not to mention the thinner domestic dog, and the tiger that Qiu Hao has been afraid of once at night is an adult Siberian tiger.

After talking about beasts, let's talk about people.

At this time, Huaxia was still in a period of ignorance, and it was still thousands of years away from the civilization period when the Three Emperors ruled the world, and as for the Five Emperors, it was even more gone.

Although it is a period of ignorance, there is one thing that is very good, that is, people in the real sense have appeared, except for cultural thoughts, scientific and technological levels, people in this period are no different from later generations.

It's just that Qiu Hao still has to pick ginseng, I'm afraid that he won't have the leisure to meet the people here.

……

"By the way, Zhiling, can the kind of space node that can make people teleport can also be used in the Ice Age?"

Qiu Hao suddenly thought of this problem, the traffic in the obscurantist period was really bad to the point of unimaginable, those robbers who shouted "I opened this road, I planted this tree" did not exist, but there were many beasts blocking the road, so it was dangerous to travel far away, but if you can set up a space node, there will not be so many worries.

"Yes, and if you set up a space node in Changbai Mountain, as long as you confirm the permanent binding, then there will also be a space node in Changbai Mountain in the future, and you can also use it."

"Oh, that's so good!"

Qiu Hao frowned and thought for a while, feeling that Zhiling's statement was very strange, a little bit of causality, but he finally understood it, and he found that it was indeed as Zhiling said.

If a spatial node is set up in the Ice Age, then a spatial node will suddenly appear in Changbai Mountain in the future, no, no... It should be said that the space node of Changbai Mountain in later generations has always been there, provided that Qiu Hao really set it in the Ice Age, and it was never canceled halfway.

"Time travels backwards, this point is too sharp to fake, but it is also too fucked, just like throwing a hoe and letting future generations enter the museum, it is too easy to cause historical suspense." Qiu Hao subconsciously thought of this, and threw the fake thing behind him in a moment.

The ginseng collection continued until half past four in the afternoon, and after a day, Qiu Hao felt that he had gained a lot, because the spiritual energy had accumulated to more than three thousand five hundred points, and he had also dug up two ginseng plants intact, one was one hundred and ten years old, and the other was taller, reaching one hundred and fifty years, and he was now short of money and wanted to sell them.

Qiu Hao finished shopping, clapped his palms to remove the soil, and then picked up the spiritual energy detector on the ground, but just subconsciously glanced at it, and suddenly jumped up, because on the detector, I don't know when a red dot has appeared, and the distance is very close, just thirty meters behind him.

"Loach and yellow eel, you two bastards, a wild beast is here and you are deserting."

Qiu Hao immediately scolded, he had a reason to scold them, because when digging ginseng, he had already handed over the responsibility of monitoring and detectors to them, but he didn't expect them to let the beasts touch them, as for the dog's insensitivity to red, this was ignored by him.

Seeing Qiu Hao's reaction so big, the seven spirit dogs immediately understood that there was a situation, and their lazy eyes instantly woke up, and they all began to look left and right, going around in circles, but they still didn't find anything.

Qiu Hao raised the anesthetic steel crossbow and pointed to a bush in the north, and said loudly: "Don't turn around, over there!"

The grey mastiff was the most sensitive mastiff in the Tibetan mastiff, and it was also the first to discover the hiding place of the beast, and it roared at a bush.

"Woohaha......"..."Huh... Woohoo haha......"

A series of yin and yang strange beast roars rang out, causing Qiu Hao to get goosebumps, the sound was not loud, but it was really terrifying, and this situation reminded him of some kind of predator that lived in the original time and space Africa, a notorious predator.

"African hyenas! No, it should be said that it is the 'last spotted hyena', or it may be a hole hyena, which one is it? ”

There were indeed spotted hyenas in China more than 10,000 years ago, and their size and habits were similar to those of African spotted hyenas in later generations, while cave hyenas were much stronger than spotted hyenas, and they could even grow to 200 catties.

More than ten seconds passed, and under Qiu Hao's gaze, a hyena with a shoulder height of nearly one meter and gray-yellow fur with black spots appeared.

It looks taller and bigger than Shirley, especially the head, which is actually two circles bigger than an ordinary dog, its ears are erect, round and big, the body is strong and the neck is thick, the front feet are long and the back feet are short, and the standing is trapezoidal, it looks vigorous and eccentric, and in terms of physiognomy, there is no trace of dog loyalty, but it is much more cruel than a dog.

Qiu Hao's eyes shrank, this guy should be the last spotted hyena of the Pleistocene, but shouldn't they stay in the grassland?

The spotted hyena hesitated a little, did not rush up blindly, but continued to yell in a strange way, Qiu Hao screamed in his heart, knowing that it was calling for his companions, but he couldn't avoid it, because it would keep barking until it gathered a sufficient number of dogs, and finally rushed up.

"It must be killed right away!"

Qiu Hao stretched out his hand to stop the greyhound from attacking, this was to prevent the spotted hyena from escaping and dodging, while he himself raised his steel crossbow and aimed at the spotted hyena.

There may have been bows in this period, but it is certain that there were absolutely no crossbows, and the spotted hyena should be as fearful as the gray wolf before it, so it is good that it will not scare it away if it is raised!

Qiu Hao aimed his crosshair at the spotted hyena's head, and finally considered the problem of accuracy, thinking about it, so he lowered the crosshair a little and locked it on its chest, thirty meters is within the effective range of fifty meters, and according to the speed of the anesthetic arrow one hundred meters per second, as long as it is aimed, the other party will definitely not be able to dodge.

At this time, he faintly heard the joyful laughter of many spotted hyenas in the distance, and there was really not one heart, but a group!

The loaches began to be uneasy, Qiu Hao did not delay, his fingers hooked, and the anesthetic arrow in front of him disappeared without a trace, leaving only the "buzzing" sound of the bowstring flicking.

"Woo Ang ......"

The spotted hyena screamed and was hit by an arrow in the chest, but it did not kill it in one fell swoop, and it did not even affect it too much, so it quickly dodged and hid in the cedar forest.

Qiu Hao flew with both hands, hurriedly loaded the tranquilizer arrow on the steel crossbow again, and after everything was done, five more red dots appeared on the detector, they had gathered together and ran like this, very fast, and the spotted hyena before was motionless, looking at the direction and finding that it was in the cedar bush at sixty meters.
