In order to chase and kill the wild wolves, the people of the Tianlong tribe took the giant salamander, a tracking master, as a guide, and finally found the nest of the wild wolves after walking 80 kilometers, and through the efforts of everyone, the wild wolves were uprooted in one fell swoop, and finally a major hidden danger of the tribe was completely eliminated.

And when Wang Tian came to the lair of the wild wolves, he found that he and the others had come to the intersection of the grassland.

After fighting the wolves and annihilating them all, thinking that it would be too late to return to the tribe after two hours, Wang Tian decided to camp near the wolves' lair and return to the tribe the next day.

Unexpectedly came to the grassland, of course Wang Tian didn't want to go back empty-handed, he couldn't help but think of the poem about the sky is vast, the wilderness is vast, and the wind blows the grass and shows cattle and sheep.

The cattle, sheep and horses of the six traditional Chinese animals were domesticated from wild species, and these three animals are the most common species on the grassland.

Domestic cattle were domesticated from bison, and the remains of cattle have been found at the Qijia cultural site in the Ganqing region of northwest China and the Longshan cultural site in the Central Plains, indicating that the use of cattle in China can be traced back to at least the end of the Neolithic period.

The distribution range of cattle in China has been found through archaeology, and its approximate area is most of northern China, and the remains of cattle skeletons have been found in the ruins of Dongheigou and Chawuhu ditch in Xinjiang in the west, and in the Dashanqian site in Inner Mongolia in the east.

These later archaeological discoveries have confirmed that at the end of the Neolithic period, 5,000 to 10,000 years later, the Chinese had successfully domesticated bison into domestic cattle.

The cattle in the traditional Chinese six animals refer to cattle and buffaloes, and some experts even believe that yaks are also included.

In Greater China, there are very few archaeological finds of buffalo, and many experts are inclined to believe that the buffalo was introduced to the southern part of China from the South Asian subcontinent, that is, from India and Pakistan.

For this reason, Wang Tian did not expect to find primitive buffalo in northern China, and the original ancestor of the cattle, the bison, had already burned high incense.

In China's 5,000-year-long feudal society (many archaeologists believe that there was no such thing as a slave society in China, the author agrees), cattle have been used for thousands of years as the main animal power of agricultural civilization.

If we can get cattle this time, it will certainly greatly accelerate the agricultural production of the tribe, otherwise it will be very difficult for the tribe to make great progress in agricultural production with the current productivity and population of the tribe.

Everyone also set traps around the wolf's den, set up early warning devices, took out thick fishing nets and hung them on tree trunks near the campsite, lit fires around the camp at night, and arranged for personnel to spend the night safely.

As soon as dawn was on the second day, Wang Tian divided the tribesmen into two teams, a pair of 35 people led by the leader, and returned to the tribe in advance with the 47 wolves they had hunted yesterday.

Didn't return to the tribe last night, Wang Tian estimated that the witch would be very worried, so he asked the leader to set off with the prey in advance to rush back to report the safety of the witch, and the remaining 30 people were led by the second brother and Wang Tian to explore the grassland. Begin the return to the tribe before noon.

Wang Tian and his second brother and a group of 31 people, less than 1 kilometer deep into the grassland, were stunned by the scene they found in front of them.

Herds of wild boars, rampage through the steppe, and more numerous than wild boars are herds of wild horses and bison, and when they spread their limbs and run, the whole ground trembles,

In addition, there are hares everywhere, herds of wild sheep, no wonder the number of this group of wild wolves annihilated by their own tribe is so large, and the food can be seen everywhere, and it is strange that the wild wolf pack does not grow.

Wang Tian was even a little worried that if he annihilated all the wolves like this, would it destroy the ecological balance? With such a large number of herbivores, if there is no restriction from the wolf pack, will they stall and reproduce at high speed, making a primitive version of the Australian rabbit invasion?

Without the restriction of wild wolves, a natural predator, on various herbivores, would it have caused the desertification of the soil by 10,000 or 20,000 years in advance?

Wang Tian suddenly smiled and found that he was a little worried, such a big problem of ecological balance, it is not his turn to worry about it, nature has its own way of checks and balances, and it is the right thing to think about how to obtain cattle, sheep and horses.

There should be no problem in getting sheep, sheep are the most docile of these animals, and it is not difficult to catch and take them away, but what should be done with the remaining horses and cows?

Once the horse had run, the man of speed could not expect to be able to keep up, and the buffalo and boar were notoriously hot-tempered, and lions and tigers would not dare to provoke them easily in a herd.

Wang Tian decided to make it easier and then more difficult, first get the most likely sheep in his hands, and then find a way to get the bison to the tribe.

Everyone discussed the countermeasures and decided to adopt the most primitive hunting method: for a while, they only need to quietly get as close as possible to the sheep, and when they enter the attack range, everyone throws the fishing net in their hands against the sheep, which is to catch alive.

Then, regardless of whether there is a harvest or not, take out a bow and arrow and start pursuing, at this time it is a normal hunting activity, only to obtain prey as the highest goal.

But when Wang Tian quietly approached the flock, he suddenly changed his mind, because he saw a goat with the largest horns on its head, it was just a goat, as long as it was controlled, the rest of the goats would definitely follow, and then the tribesmen only needed to catch it behind, so that they could capture the entire flock of goats without difficulty.

At this time, Wang Tian quietly pointed to the head sheep with his fingers, signaled the second brother to catch it alive, then took out the straw rope from his waist, made a lasso horse, gestured at the second brother for a while, made a posture on his neck, and then pointed to the head sheep.

The second brother nodded after understanding, Wang Tian took out the bow and crossbow, aimed at the front leg of the head sheep, pulled the trigger, and the arrow galloped away, directly piercing the front leg of the head sheep.

After the head sheep was hit, it made an angry sound, and the sheep immediately gathered behind it, and Wang Tian found that the sheep did not scatter and run away, at this time the second brother of King Kong had thrown out the lasso, the rope was tightened at once, and the head sheep let out a miserable cry again.

It turned around and found everyone, not only did it not run away, but instead lowered its head and roared towards everyone, the second brother flashed and directly grabbed its horns, so that it could not move a bit.

The vajra orangutan let out an angry roar, and directly pressed the head sheep to the ground with a force in his hand, and the head sheep let out a more miserable cry, and at the same time, the fishing nets in everyone's hands were also spilled out, and the remaining dozens of goats, whether they were covered by the fishing nets or not, were like headless flies, at a loss, neither running nor jumping, but they didn't know what to do around the head sheep.

Wang Tian knew that as long as the head sheep was controlled, he could control the entire flock, but after this group of stupid sheep was attacked, he couldn't run, which was incomprehensible.

Wang Tian laughed when he saw this, took out a bundle of rope and tied another one around the neck of the head sheep, and then handed it to the second brother of King Kong.

But if there is a second brother to lead, this is a sheep can not run anyway, the second brother let go of the head of the horn held down, the head of the sheep found that it can move, immediately lowered its head and held the horn, rushed towards the second brother, and then was pressed to the ground by the second brother with one hand.

After three or five times like this, the head sheep finally gave in, gave up meaningless resistance, and let the second brother drag it away, although he was unwilling, but there was no way, he couldn't resist the second brother's strength, so he could only let the second brother lead him.

At this time, the people of the tribe were planning to tie up the sheep, but Wang Tian stopped them, he pointed to the head sheep led by the second brother and said: "No need to bind, we have caught the head sheep now, and the rest of the sheep will obediently follow, if they are tied, everyone has to carry them back, now just pull the head sheep in front, everyone drives the sheep from behind, and drives them back to the tribe directly." ”

After successfully capturing the head sheep, the Tianlong tribe got 58 goats without paying off, Wang Tian glanced at the bison herd in the distance, his eyes showed greed, and then shook his head, today has captured these dozens of goats, it is not suitable to catch bison, can only wait until the next time.

The head sheep has just been suppressed and conquered by the second brother, and on the way back to the tribe, it must be careful to prevent it from escaping, Wang Tian asked the second brother to grab the rope around the neck of the head sheep and drag it back to the tribe directly.

The goat's teeth are so powerful that no thorns are enough to threaten this mouth, and this rope made of straw rope, no matter how thick it is, is like a noodle in its eyes.

Now it just didn't come back to its senses for a while and didn't bite it, Wang Tian pulled out the arrow on the leg of the head of the sheep, and simply applied herbs to it to stop the bleeding, Wang Tian didn't want it to die halfway, and the rest of the sheep would be difficult to do at that time.

Wang Tian asked everyone to loosen the other goats that were covered by fishing nets, and everyone only drove them behind, and the leader directly dragged the head sheep in front, and the tribe began to return.

Along the way, the head sheep really struggled frantically, but was dragged by the second brother of King Kong with one hand, so that it could not play a little trick, so it could only obediently lead the sheep and return to the tribe.
