Chapter 3: A sniper girl at the beginning
Yang Jiao was carried into the village on all fours.
The natives felt that Yang Jiao was the god of fire, and walking into the settlement would dirty the feet of the gods.
As for the blonde Yulia, she was not treated very well, everyone had different aesthetics, Mao Mei seemed to be regarded as another species, and the stick on her back didn't even have a sharp point, she must be a war scumbag who followed the fire god to eat and drink.
The patriarch of the Riverbend tribe personally received the two of them, this seems to be an old man in his last years, full of fifty years old, the early years of hunting left him with scars that are difficult to heal, several huge scars crawling on his chest like earthworms, looking shocking, if there is no error of judgment, it should be the traces left by the claws of some kind of giant cat.
This era is like this, there is no good medical conditions, the quality of diet and housing and future generations are not at the same level at all, and it is already a very good physical fitness to live past the age of forty, and as for the top, it depends on luck.
The patriarch's name was Bison Neck, and he had been to many other settlements when he was young, and in fact the tribe's ability to make fire was in his hands.
The bison has several wives, the eldest wife is very ugly, like a hairless chimpanzee, but she will make a smoker stick, which is stuffed with withered grass and twigs to keep the fire, and the charcoal fire will be in a smoldering state, and it will not be extinguished too quickly, and it will not burn out immediately.
Yang Li looked at the eyes of the bison neck and found that there was a light called wisdom shining inside.
The bison made a big salute and brought out the most precious salt and honey in the tribe to entertain the two, and seeing Yang Li and Yulia disdain these two foods, he confirmed the speculation in his heart even more.
This child is immeasurable.
Horror, horror.
Even delicious honey can be ignored, then it is most likely a true god.
It's just that he doesn't know that modern people are used to eating chocolate cream or cane sugar, and high-sugar and high-calorie things are not attractive to them.
"O messenger of fire," said the buffalo, sitting cross-legged with his arms outstretched, his lower body still and his upper body lying on the ground, "I beg your pardon for not being able to provide more abundant food, the crops in the fields are ripe, and it will take a few more days, but I can ask Hayabusa to go and catch more deer for you." ”
Yang Jiao had seen Hayabusa Wing, the leader of the clan warriors who had led the team to attack him when he first arrived.
But the falcon came in faster than expected, and the creature stumbled into the hut, gesturing and shouting, "Oh no, Dad, no, it's here again!" ”
"Something." Yang Li looked at the panicked appearance of Falcon Wing, and seemed to have encountered something extremely terrifying.
The bison's neck and cheeks twitched visibly a few times, he grabbed the spear beside him with difficulty, tightened the belt of the beast's fur, stood up and walked outside: "It's the iron mane, let's go, let's go and expel it." ”
Hayabusa moved a few steps sharply, stretching his arms to block the path of the bison's neck: "Dad, you can't go, you can't fight anymore, I'll gather people." ”
"Why, the chief of the riverlands, he did not die of illness in his tent. After this fight, I will abdicate. The buffalo pushed his eldest son away by the neck and walked outside.
Yang Li and Yulia walked out with the patriarch in confusion, and found that the settlement was in a mess, the women were busy stuffing the children into the shacks, and the men were mostly holding sticks and spears, some were already looking at the entrance of the village, and more were looking at this side, the residence of the bison neck.
The settlement is located on the south bank of the river, between the highlands and the river, and is a flat crop field.
This is typically a small alluvial plain, where the bay deforms and shifts over time, while the hills and gentle slopes of the river trail are smoothed out, leaving behind fertile soil suitable for farming.
A giant bow-jawed pig swayed and walked towards the flat cropland, it was three meters tall and about five meters long, with a narrow skull, and its chin was covered with bony growths, hideous and abnormal, with interlaced shovel teeth in its mouth, which was different from Yang Li's memory, this arch-jawed pig named Iron Mane had huge fangs like wild boars.
This size is already close to that of a hippopotamus.
It is important to know that the most murderous animals in Africa are not crocodiles and lions, but ferocious hippos, and similarly, wild boars in the mountains hurt people more often than tigers and leopards.
The bow-jawed pig lowered its head and began to nibble on the crops in the field.
Dog's tail grass-like plants grow neatly, and there are interspersed with canals connected to the river, which are traces of human irrigation.
Of course, it is not the dog's tail grass that grows densely, it is one of the earliest crops of man, the grass.
The destruction of this farmland is the life of the entire settlement.
Hunting and fruit gathering could not feed these more than 100 people, and only agriculture based on the earth could allow more people to survive and multiply, which Yang Yu knew better than anyone present.
But what to do now, if the beast had been spotted earlier, perhaps it could have been sent out of the way, or a trap had been prepared to drive it away, but it had come so suddenly, and according to Hayabusa's tone, it was not the first time it had come to plague the settlement.
Yang Li's gaze naturally fell on Yulia's big sniper.
It's not that I suspect that five sniper special shells can't take care of that beast, but to save an indigenous settlement that I don't know, is it worth it?
Besides, the sniper rifle is Mao Mei's, and it seems that he and her are not good enough to order her to shoot.
Yulia seemed to notice that Yang Li was paying attention to her, raised her chin arrogantly at him, and then unsheathed the tactical dagger tied to her round thigh, and stuffed it to Yang Li: "You don't have a weapon, take this." ”
"So?" Yang Li didn't understand what Yulia meant.
"Didn't you say this is the Yellow River?"
"yes."
"Aren't you Chinese?"
"There can still be fakes."
"Aren't the people around the Yellow River Chinese?"
"Hmm...... That's right, too. Yang Li suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
Sure enough, Mao Mei said her thoughts very seriously: "So they are all your ancestors, go and help your ancestors." ”
Yang Li was stunned, this chick's logic was seamless.
Are you forcing me to fight the giant pig?
Yulia seemed to have guessed Yang Li's thoughts, pursed her thin lips and pouted at the tactical dagger, meaning that it will be handed over to you.
Okay, Lao Yang, I'm going to save my ancestors, but what about you?
Yulia hummed a little tune, drawing circles on the ground on her toes, and looking around.
Led by the bison neck, about thirty men of the tribe had already surrounded them, and had already begun to throw stones from afar, some of them carrying two spears, one long and one short, the short one for throwing and the long one for hand-to-hand combat.
But pigs are different from tigers and leopards, although they do not have the flexibility of cats, but they like to roll mud, and then go to pine trees and other vegetation to rub over, and over time, they will have armor mixed with pine resin and hardened earth.
The stone tickled it, and the spear was ignored as long as it was not aimed at its eyes, for it could hardly penetrate his thick skin.
Falcon finally pierced the spear into the hind legs of Iron Mane, where there was less mud and pine resin, but the sharpness of the stone spear was extremely limited, and it was difficult to break through a point after piercing half an inch, but it was noticed by Iron Mane, turned around, flew out a few meters upside down, and fell to the ground.
Yang Jiao stubbornly approached a distance of four or five meters, but no matter how he looked at it, it looked like he was about to be trampled to death by a pig's trotters, hum, this tactical dagger is used to kill people, to deal with giant beasts, Mao Mei, you are teasing me, but why did you come here, was it really instigated by Yulia?
Phew, I, a dignified proletarian worker, how can I care about the opinion of your hairy sister.
I, Yang, am helping my ancestors.
But how can this help......
During the hesitation, the bison had already screamed miserably, and was hit by the iron mane fangs in the front, and the abdomen was opened, and the intestines flowed out, but it still screamed to rush up.
It's over, this guy is going to die after this game, don't look at the red face and panting now, it's a return to the light under the action of adrenaline.
The stone spear on the bison's neck was broken, and the sharpened flint broke through the middle, apparently deadless.
Yang Li grabbed the bison by the neck, snatched his stone spear, and then removed the broken flint, pulled out the tactical dagger and tied it to it.
Bison Neck didn't dare to offend the fire-controlling gods, but he felt that his physical strength was passing every second, and now that he didn't rush up, he would never have a chance to rush again.
"Here," Yang Jiao stuffed the modified spear into the bison's neck, leaned closer to his face, and pointed to the bow-jawed pig's eyes, "Go and prick its eyes!" Eyes, you know! ”
Bison coughed up a mouthful of blood and nodded vigorously, but he couldn't get close to the head of the iron mane this time, and he was flying again, his spear was out of his hand, and his body arced in mid-air, falling into the dust, no longer moving, and the spear that had just been tied to the dagger fell at Yang Li's feet.
Yang Li grabbed the spear and threw it at the giant beast.
The ghost makes the god bad, and hits the eyeball.
In this battle, which lasted for more than ten minutes, Iron Mane was finally injured for the first time, and it was a serious injury.
It turned its body, stared at Yang Jiao with the hatred of its intact eyeball, spread its four hooves, and rushed wildly, like a main battle tank with composite armor.
Run.
At a distance of more than ten meters, the iron mane came in an instant, and the fangs looked like they were about to pierce Yang Li's back of the heart.
"Woo ——!" A loud thunderous noise came from the direction of the settlement.
The beast shook twice, and a fist-sized bloody hole appeared in its abdomen, a wound caused by a special bullet from a sniper rifle.
Yulia was half-kneeling in the open space at the entrance of the settlement, and the big sniper was nearly a person long, and she held it firmly in her hand.
Ironmane shifted his target and began to charge at Yulia, fifty paces.
Yulia pulled the bolt, and a golden brass bullet case jumped out, hot and smoking, tumbling and clattering to the ground, and the new bullet was loaded, and the action was smooth and all in one go.
"Woo ——!" Another shot, the iron mane is in the middle of the eyebrows, but it is extremely vigorous, and it can still charge, forty steps.
"Bah, bah!" After two more shots, the prehistoric beast was shot twice, and it had already broken through twenty paces and reached Yulia's eyes.
But the girl was still as calm as when she saw the bomb, she was half-kneeling on the ground, not moving, the hair on her sideburns was blown by the wind that swept across the wasteland, and her eyes were clear.
The last bullet.
The eyes of the entire clan converged on her, and Yang Jiao only felt that time suddenly froze at that time, and everything in front of him slowed down.
He saw Yulia let out a soft sigh and pulled the trigger of the big sniper.
He saw the orange tongue of fire leaping from the muzzle of the gun, as if swearing the power of civilization.
He saw a blood flower splashing on the center of the giant pig's iron mane eyebrows again, and half of the Heavenly Spirit Cover was lifted away, his whole body trembled, his front hooves went soft, and he knelt to the ground.
Finally, there was the late thunderous sound of gunfire.
Bang.
The body of the giant pig's iron mane slid out more than ten meters under the action of inertia, plowing the ground into deep marks, and finally stopped at a half-inch position in front of Yulia's gun.
