Chapter 20: Behemoth Hunters

When Huya and Xue returned, they brought back the news of the woolly rhinoceros.

The rhinoceros is still very different from the future rhinoceros, its body length is shorter, but the shoulders are higher, and the two long horns are shaped like shovels, which are used to cut through the soil and snow, and eat the plants below.

"Again," Yang Jiao was still more cautious when thinking from the leader's standpoint, "I don't want to see any of you get hurt - Huya, don't hum, it's you who is talking about you - if you can solve it with a trap, don't keep thinking about going up and fighting hard." ”

But Huya was still unconvinced: "Believe me, big leader, when I first dealt with Iron Mane, I was always able to successfully expel it, first using rocks and bushes to consume its physical strength, and then three javelins went down, and told it to flee in the wilderness!" ”

"We're going to kill it, not expel it." Yulia reminded.

Huya scratched his head, if he wanted to hunt the woolly rhinoceros directly, then he was not very confident, because the beast ran fast on four legs, and if he really found that the situation was not good, he only had to moo the wind and run into the wasteland, and his group would have to chase after him.

“humm…… Huya, do you hunt bear traps? The kind of log support. "Yang Jiao knew that Huya had killed some wild bears before.

Huya said of course it would, dig a pit and don't let the bear run around.

"And then?"

"Go down to the pit and kill it."

Yang Jiao slapped his forehead, and yes, he couldn't judge Huya's behavior according to the eyes of ordinary humans.

This method of digging a pit is naturally impossible to use now, trapping a four-meter-long woolly rhinoceros, how big a pit is, calling the entire caravan to dig it, I'm afraid it will take several hours to dig it.

"Yang, you're talking about a figure-4 log bear hunting trap?" Yulia remembered something.

Yang Jiao was overjoyed: "I only remember a rough idea, but I forgot the details, you learned this when you were in the service?" ”

Yulia stretched out a finger and shook it: "How can a sniper learn this, this is what my grandfather taught me when I was in Murmansk." ”

Murmansk is a city close to the Arctic Circle, and to the east is the great snow-capped Siberian wilderness.

Yulia's grandfather took her to hunt bears in her early years, in addition to large-caliber shotguns, traps are naturally also commonly used, so Mao Mei has been exposed to this skill since she was a child, and of course she also learned where to shoot and where to shoot.

This is a very vicious trap, if it is triggered by a person or a wild boar, it will be crushed to death on the spot by the falling tons of logs, and brown bears are often seriously injured and trapped when they are hit, unable to move for a while.

Since the trap could be made, Yang Li immediately set about arranging a rhino hunting plan, and he asked a few people to clear out a piece of grass, using tree branches as pens and soil as paper, and began to arrange tasks.

After some explanation, Yang Li was quite confident, everyone was full of fighting spirit, and a criminal action of mutilating prehistoric wild animals kicked off.

Like most ungulates, the woolly rhinoceros also sleeps standing up, it is huge, so it is not afraid of most sneak attacks, there are not many really tough hunters in this land, there are no apex predators like short-faced bears, there must be anything that can pose a threat to it, it is only the saber-toothed tiger group on the upper scale.

However, in the past two years, the caravans have increased their contacts with the Greywood tribe, and humans have organized several hunts against the saber-toothed tigers in order to protect their goods, so even the only threat to the woolly rhinoceros has become smaller.

This plain is almost the only one in the family.

But tonight its dignity was challenged.

A stone landed on the horn of the woolly rhinoceros and bounced away, and it didn't want to open its eyes for such a trivial matter, so it shook its head and went back to sleep, but then another stone flew and landed on its eyelids.

Knock –

Now it was a little stinging, the woolly rhinoceros purred, snorted, opened his eyes to look, but found that there seemed to be nothing abnormal in the field of vision.

It's just that a black shadow suddenly flashed behind me, and the enemy was behind me!

"Taste this." Xue drew his longbow to the fullest, and took advantage of the moment when the tail of the woolly rhinoceros was dangling, and shot the feather arrow.

Unbiased, in the middle of the chrysanthemum.

An earth-shattering roar rang out over the wasteland.

Yang Li and Yulia were setting up traps in the forest, and they were still calculating how long it would take for Xue's bait to lure the prey over, as soon as they heard this voice, good boy, it's convenient now, not to mention that in the forest, I'm afraid that even many people in the gray wood settlement have been awakened.

The earth rumbled, and the grass tread by huge hooves seemed to be turned over by an excavator, mixed with the water that had just rained, and the mud was splashed everywhere.

Xue saw that the giant beast was crushing towards him like a small mountain, threw the bow and arrow in his hand to the side, and ran away.

The route was chosen by him, and there were a few pieces of unweathered granite blocking the way in the middle, and the confidence of Xue's escape was here.

Several times the huge horn of the woolly rhinoceros rubbed the animal skin on Xue's back, and the breath of the huge nostrils pulled out two long white exercises in the night, as long as Xue was slow and was lightly picked by this horn, it would immediately fly into the sky and fall down and become a corpse.

Xue bypassed the first rock!

The woolly rhinoceros couldn't change direction, and hurriedly slowed down, but it was too big and bulky, and it actually hit it directly, but fortunately, the skull was hard, and it slowed down in time, and there was no injury, so he shook his head, roared, and continued to pursue.

"Brute, if you have the ability, you will arch this stone, and if you don't accept it, you will bite me!" Xue's young man had a heart attack, and he actually stopped to provoke.

The woolly rhinoceros finally learned to behave, and it controlled its speed to make sure that it would not lose its footing, and as long as it drove the hateful human out of the range of the rocks, how could he outrun the four-legged beast with his two-legged running speed.

But when the rhinoceros caught up with the boy again, a giant man suddenly stood up on the hillside next to him, he carried a stone axe with a big wheel in his hand, and threw it at him with a loud shout.

If Fang Cai's feathered arrow only made the woolly rhinoceros feel severe pain, then the throw of this giant axe really made it feel that its life was threatened - if you eat this trick hard, it is likely to be seriously injured!

Being seriously injured in the wilderness almost means death.

The woolly rhinoceros turned sideways to hide, and the stone axe grazed its shoulder blades, bringing out a slip of blood, even if it was a flint axe blade, it could be indestructible under the divine power of the tiger's teeth, and the wound was torn and the bones were visible!

Can't let that human attack! The hairy rhinoceros's small IQ drove it to make the right choice and kill the most threatening being, so it immediately abandoned the boy in front of it, turned and rushed up the hill, vowing to fight to the death with Huya.

If the tiger tooth comes to hunt by himself, most of the time after two javelins, he picks up the big axe and the woolly rhinoceros to fight, but the order of the big leader is not to be injured, what can be done.

Run.

Huya ran towards the woods on the other side of the hillside, and at the same time muttered about when my Huya had beaten so badly, and I was not convinced, and I was very angry.

However, the big leader patted his chest and vouched before, saying that it was made of something called chain mail, so he let himself go to hand-to-hand combat, and in the future, he would equip himself with some kind of artifact called blue steel plate armor, even if he was among the ten thousand armies, he could kill back and forth?

As soon as Huya thought of this, his heart was full of blood.

At the entrance to the forest in front of us, a "4" shaped trap stood roughly, one horizontal and one vertical as a trigger, and the hypotenuse of 4 was a log weighing more than four tons, which the three of them had put up together.

Run a few dozen more steps and you'll be able to lure the woolly rhinoceros there.

Yulia stood behind the trap with her hands on her hips, in a posture that would have broken me.

"Jump!" Yang Li waved his hands and shouted.

Huya heard the sound of the wind behind his head, presumably it was the rhino horn attacking, so he didn't think about it anymore at the moment, and jumped -

The rhinoceros saw the human in front of him disappear with a whoosh.

Standing in its way was an enlarged version of a bear trap made of several giant trees.

"Boom!" The log was triggered, falling like a landslide, smashing on the back of the woolly rhinoceros, Yang Li seemed to hear a tooth-sore rattle sound around him, it was the sound of the spine of the woolly rhinoceros being smashed alive, the giant beast wailed, was pressed by the log, and struggled to get up, but Yulia arrived here, picked up Yang Li's steel spear, pierced through its eyeball, and pierced through that end, the special steel dagger was indestructible, stirred a few times, and suddenly made the giant beast swallow its last breath.

Huya's leap just now happened to fall into the arc-shaped ditch dug by Yang Li, and rolled to the side like a slide, avoiding the angry blow of the rhino horn behind him, except for the fact that his body was full of dirt and two blades of grass in his mouth, he was unscathed elsewhere.

Yang Li's side, one person and one hairy sister high-fived each other, this is the victory of human wisdom, but also the victory of the superb skills of later civilizations, Yulia pulled Yang Li, habitually compared scissors hands to take a group photo in front of the rhinoceros corpse, but after posing but found that there was no camera, so he gave up in frustration.

"Huya, I said I didn't need hand-to-hand combat, do you see now?" Yang Li patted the giant man's shoulder and smiled.

Huya grinned: "If I had learned this good thing earlier, I wouldn't have had to suffer so much in the wasteland before...... But big boss, I still prefer to fight face-to-face! ”

"What's the hurry, there will be opportunities in the future, don't blame me for always using you as a meat shield when the time comes."

"Hehe, how can I blame you for this, big chief, the more dangerous the place, the happier I am, and I don't know why." The giant man touched his head and smiled.

In fact, modern people are addicted to smoking and alcoholism, and a large part of the reason is that Neanderthals' genes account for about 2% of the total genes of modern people.

Everyone is usually 5 combat power, at the moment of life and death, I can burst out of 10, you can only burst out of 7, what is the result? I survived, you died.

At this time, there is no concept of healthy life, everyone thinks about how to survive, and survival is the primary goal.

As for health, do you talk to the race with an average age of 40 years old about a healthy life and regular work and rest?

Then you can pull it down, your life is gone, what kind of health is it.

Therefore, this giant man with more than half Neanderthal blood, the effect of adrenaline is particularly obvious, and he can easily enter the state of berserker.

However, since Huya has become his own person, he must try his best to ensure his health.

He is not very old, and there is still a lot of room for improvement in his combat skills, if you add the whole body heavy armor, hum.

Yang Li instructed Xue to return to the ash wood settlement and call people to carry the prey together, while the rest of the people rested in place, waiting for the morning to come, and then returned to the ash wood tribe in exchange for the freedom of Xue and his mother.

Yulia looked tired enough, and the girl lay directly on the grass, leaning on Yang Li's leg as a pillow, and let out a slight snoring sound.
