Chapter 104: Succeeding

The mammoth is three meters tall, has a shorter body than later elephants, and has high shoulders that look like a tall camel.

When you are running, when you look at it diagonally, it is easy to think that its shoulders are your head.

Two arrows, one thick and one thin, hit the largest mammoth. However, the thin one is directly inserted into the mammoth's shoulder, and the thick one is actually inserted into the mammoth's head.

The mammoth who had been hit by the arrow did not fall to the ground as expected, but came out of the herd, screamed at Potu and the stone beak, raised his nose and screamed, and was about to pounce.

Stone Beak sat down on the snow in fright, and a stronger smell of urine came from his body.

Po Tu hurriedly pulled the bow again, but the strong bow was difficult to pull, and the mammoth who was hit by the arrow saw Po Tu pull the bow, turned his head and ran after the herd.

Slaughter's second arrow moves in the direction of movement, only hitting the mammoth's hind legs in the distance. The mammoth screamed again, and seemed to run more quickly.

Lin Ji threw the burning branches into the snow, passed through the valley, and beckoned everyone: "Chase, chase." ”

Po Tu drew his arrow again and ran ahead. Stone Beak had palpitations, gasped for breath twice, and gritted his teeth to chase after him.

Dunmu and Shouli ran down the mountain, but Dunmu was afraid that he would run slowly, so he fell directly into the snow and slid down. After hitting the tree a few times, he quickly descended to the foot of the mountain and followed the footsteps of Lin Ji and the others.

The little wolfdog also ran down quickly and ran to the front of the group.

Shou Li fell at the end, looking hesitant. But in the end, he didn't dare to roll straight down.

The footprints on the snow were messy, and a little blood was spilled all the way. The maximum speed of an elephant run can reach 50 km/h. They had run once in the places ahead, and had already rushed out of the grass and trees. They raised their speed a little, and everyone was thrown so that they didn't even see a shadow.

After chasing for a distance, everyone gradually heard the wailing of the mammoth, and soon saw the staggering figure of the elephant with the arrow. And the herd of elephants has long since lost sight of where it has gone.

"Chase south, chase south." Lin Ji was happy, commanding the little wolf dog to run to the front to intercept first, and he also led everyone around from the north. If you can chase it to the vicinity of the southern tribe and the mammoth falls to the ground, it will naturally save a lot of effort.

The mammoth slowed down, and was chased south by everyone. Po Tu approached several times and shot a few more arrows at it. Stonebeak finally used what he said. But I don't know where the arrows went.

After running south for about two kilometers, the mammoth ran and fell to the ground.

In order to show his worth, Dunmu screamed and rushed forward, stabbing a spear into the mammoth's buttocks. As a result, the mammoth was in pain, so he actually got up, turned his head and shook his fangs at the pier wood.

Dunmu is brave, and he does not dodge in the face of these ten-ton giants, and he is about to fight hard with the spear and the two long tusks of the mammoth, which are close to three meters.

"Jump away!" Seeing the tragedy, Po Tu shouted and fired his bow again.

Fortunately, the training in recent months has made Dunmu develop the habit of obeying orders, and as soon as Po Tu shouted, he jumped behind a big tree next to him.

The mammoth had tusks in the air, and then he was hit by a slaughtering arrow. The arrow happened to be shot between the mammoth's eyes. The mammoth crashed to the ground again as if it had been electrocuted. This time, he didn't get up again.

Everyone let out a sigh of relief, and one by one they fell into the snow. Chasing through the snow all the way, almost squeezed out everyone's last bit of strength. Po Tu's hands drooped, and it seemed that even the strength of his two arms had been exhausted.

"This bow is too hard, I didn't think it was like shooting more than a dozen arrows yesterday, but today's arrows are really hard." Po Tu said softly shaking his arm.

"Because you were slow to shoot yesterday." Lin Ji continued.

Today, almost all of these arrows were fired in a hurry, and it is possible to be physically exhausted or even strained. Sometimes everything has to be tested in actual combat, and this is the truth.

"Is there any way to practice arm strength?"

"Practice more."

Slowly, Lin Ji came to the mammoth's massive body. Afraid that this big guy would be resurrected, Lin Ji took out a machete, stabbed it in the neck, and jumped away quickly.

Blood flowed again, but the mammoth didn't wake up again.

Several people stepped forward, picked up the blood together, and drank it. It was almost a hunting tradition, and the stone beaks and dun wood had heard much earlier, and this was the first time they had done so, so they drank extraordinarily much.

Shouli smiled and looked at the stone beak and said, "Drink more and hydrate." ”

Everyone knew that Stone Beak had peed on his crotch, and they also laughed.

The little wolf dog is even more unkind, constantly licking and feeding on the snow. Along the way, it has also made a lot of efforts. Hearing everyone's laughter, it also snorted twice, which can be regarded as laughing with everyone.

Lin Ji did not drink blood, but patted the elephant casually, and found that the long hair was softer than expected, slightly thicker than wool, but softer than human hair.

Po Tu took the machete and gestured to the mammoth: "How do you get it?" ”

If I had made such a big game before, I would send one or two people back to the tribe to call for people, and let the whole tribe come and live around here, and eat it.

Not now. It's winter, and if the tribe comes out, maybe a few will freeze to death. No one will be willing to give up the tribe's stockade. And Lin Ji is planning to get this thing to make the next year's reserve meat.

Mori felt that he was finally going to come in handy, and said, "I'll go back and call someone to move it." ”

"You don't have to go back." Lin Ji shook his head and whistled at the sky. The ghost eagle floating in the sky also chirped and landed directly on the mammoth.

Lin Ji first cut off a little strip of meat to feed the ghost eagle, and then cut off four or five catties of meat with the belt hair for the ghost eagle to grasp. The ghost eagle grabbed the meat, flapped its wings into the sky, and flew in the direction of the tribe.

It should only be seven or eight kilometers away from the tribe, and the ghost eagle will go back with the meat, and it is estimated that it will be back in ten minutes. When Ying and the others saw it, they naturally knew what was going on, and they should have sent someone over to carry the meat later. If a person runs back and forth, three hours may not be enough, and it will be dark.

"We peel the skin and cut the meat, and by the way, we look at its body structure." Lin Ji took another spearhead and beckoned everyone to do it.

The skin is definitely going to be peeled back. The hair of a mammoth is half a meter long, and it is estimated that it is not suitable to make a fur coat with hair. However, it should be fine to shave the hair off and make a sweater. If you make leather, you can make it like bare cowhide, and you should be able to make boots or leather armor, maybe it is stronger than cowhide.

Po Tu started the knife from the neck cut by the forest traces, and what was cut out was a thick layer of subcutaneous fat, which was much thicker than the domestic pigs of later generations, generally eight or nine centimeters thick, and even ten centimeters in some places, and the thinnest place was the position of the neck.

Fat was a good thing for prehistoric humans, and its value was not below protein. When all this came out, Dunmu was stupid and wanted to stuff it into his mouth, but he was slapped hard by Lin Ji before he remembered that now the tribe does not advocate eating raw meat.

Because of the thick fat, the arrows fired by the beak were bone-like arrows, and they only hit the fat layer of the mammoth's shoulder, and there was almost no blood.

This made Stonebeak quite frustrated, and he felt that he had all over his body inside and out.

Peeling it all the way down, it was found that the first arrow of Broken Tu had not completely pierced its skull. The mammoth's skull has a bone plate in front of it, which is connected to its tusks, which is very thick, and the arrows fired from the side get stuck in this position.

And the arrow between the eyes, because the angle was just right, shot through the bone plate.

Lin Ji stabbed its skull with a spearhead, and concluded, "The frontal attack is the most laborious, and if you shoot a little behind, its skull will pierce...... It can also attack the neck, major arteries and trachea in these locations...... Let's see where its heart grows. ”
