Chapter 21: The Trap (2)
The overly complicated trap Wang Lang has never been exposed to before, but the net pocket trap is the most classic trap in countless TV series, and Wang Lang has checked the specific principle of this trap on the Internet out of curiosity, so it is not difficult to make.
After more than a year of survival in the wild, Wang Lang is already very familiar with the terrain near the tribe, there is a large pit with a diameter of more than two meters nearby, the big pit can be said to be a natural trap, because the depth of the pit is nearly three meters, even if the prey is caught, no one can get it, Wang Lang did not use it as a trap before, but now that there are enough people, that place reappears in Wang Lang's mind.
Half an hour later, Wang Lang and the four of them walked through a low bush, and the strong teeth that opened the way in front of them suddenly let out a miserable scream, and their feet suddenly stepped into the air, and their bodies fell straight down.
Wang Lang, who followed closely behind, reacted very quickly, just when Jianya stumbled and fell, Wang Lang rushed over quickly, grabbed Jianya's hand, but Jianya's weight of more than 100 catties plus the ground weeds were very slippery, and the huge inertia took Wang Lang to fall into the pit, and in a panic, Wang Lang grabbed the edge of the pit with his right hand to stabilize the downward trend.
"It's okay!" Wang Lang asked downward.
"It's okay, Lang, let go, this pit is not very deep, you climb up and get me out again." Jianya said.
Wang Lang stretched his neck and looked down, and sure enough, he saw that Jianya was less than half a meter away from the bottom of the pit, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said, "Okay, be careful, I'll let it go." ”
After Jianya answered, Wang Lang let go of his hand, and Jianya fell steadily to the bottom of the pit.
Fire and Wuyun also caught up at this time, and after the two of them pulled Wang Lang up, Wuyun cut some vines and plants nearby and threw them into the pit.
Jianya grabbed the rope handed down, and the three of them pulled Jianya up together.
After Jianya came up, he looked at the big pit he just fell down with palpitations, although this pit is not very deep, but if he falls defenselessly, he will definitely break his leg, in this era, the result is not much better than death.
Jianya thanked Wang Lang, and Wang Lang patted Jianya's shoulder to signal that he didn't have to care.
"What do you think of this place?" Wang Lang asked.
Jianya looked at the pit that had nearly killed him, and said, "What can this place be for?" ”
The fire on the side understood what Wang Lang meant, and said: "Lang, do you mean to make this place a trap, people can fall, then animals can also fall, right?" ”
Wang Lang smiled: "That's right, you see that this pit is overgrown with shrubs, as long as you don't pay attention to it, it will fall, if we camouflage the hole with branches, the prey will be more difficult to detect, isn't this a trap?" ”
After listening to Wang Lang's explanation, Jianya and Wuyun also reacted, and Wuyun said: "In this case, we can dig some such pits in other places, wouldn't that be a lot more traps?" ”
Wang Lang shook his head and said, "How can it be so easy, it is almost impossible to dig such a big pit with our current tools." ”
Wuyun sighed, feeling a little regretful in his heart, he was indeed a little whimsical, it was not easy to dig those small pits in the tribe to bury tree stumps, let alone such a big pit.
"It's nice to have this natural trap, there are a lot of animals living in this bush, and this trap will definitely catch us a lot of prey." Wang Lang inspired the three who were a little lost.
The three of them nodded, and under Wang Lang's instructions, they found some branches to put at the entrance of the cave, and cut down many shrubs to cover them.
Wang Lang cut down a two-meter-long branch and stuck it next to the trap as a marker to prevent the rest of the tribe from falling unintentionally.
It was already dusk when they returned to the tribe, and when the clansmen saw Wang Lang and the four of them returning empty-handed, they all knew that the hunt had failed, and everyone was a little disappointed in their hearts.
Fire looked at the way everyone looked and knew what they were thinking, as a warrior of the tribe, it was a very shameful thing not to catch the prey, if in the past the fire would be ashamed of his incompetence, but today is different, this is an unprecedented way to hunt, although the prey cannot be brought back immediately, but in the long run, this way will definitely receive more than the traditional way.
Huo shouted at the crowd dissatisfied: "What are you doing one by one, what do you know, Lang taught us a new way of hunting today, and there will be more and more food in the future." ”
Everyone subconsciously looked at Wang Lang.
Wang Lang nodded and said: "What Huo said is right, but this method will not have much harvest in the near future, during this period, we still have to hunt in the traditional way, the food stored in the tribe is enough for us to eat for a while, don't worry too much." ”
With Wang Lang's proof, the clansmen were relieved, since the leaders said that there was no problem, then naturally there was nothing to worry about.
After dinner, the dark clouds turned over and over and couldn't sleep, thinking about the future at their fingertips for the prey mood was agitated, thinking back to the past, where the tribe migrated from here, never stayed in one place for a long time, the wandering life made the dark clouds very tired, for the now stable life dark clouds are very cherished.
Wuyun wondered in his heart, why did Lang know so much, is there really a god, although Wang Lang said a lot about the gods before, but Wuyun didn't believe much in his heart, if there were gods, why didn't the gods help us before, let us die so many people, Wuyun couldn't say what in his heart, whether it was gratitude or resentment.
Distraught, the cloud rolled over and sat on the edge of the fire looking at the rocks of the cliff, some distorted shadows as the light of the fire danced, and he wanted the gods to know what was going on in his head.
But how to communicate with the gods, the dark clouds were very distressed, staring at their shadows with a blank look in their eyes.
Suddenly, the clouds had an idea in their minds that if they could leave the thoughts in their heads like shadows on the cliff wall, then the gods should be able to see them.
Thinking that the dark cloud had no sleepiness, the spirit was excited, and the dark cloud left the sleeping crowd lightly, picked up some charcoal from the burning fire, and came to the cliff, frowning and thinking carefully about what he wanted to say to the gods.
