Chapter 31: The Leader's Sheep Hunt
Yang Li's sheep were stolen.
One morning, Huya led a small group of people to run through the gate of the settlement, screaming.
"Why do you want to do it early in the morning?" Yang Jiao poked his head out.
"Great Chief, the sheep are gone!"
...... "Oh, the sheep are gone."
It took a few seconds for the Yang Grand Leader, who had just woken up, to finally come back to his senses from a half-dream and rub his face vigorously.
Wait, what did he say?
My sheep?
Yang Jiaofei also rushed out of the shed, saw that he was only wearing shorts, scolded secretly, went back and wrapped the saber-toothed tiger skin, picked up the steel-headed spear, and poured the basin of water at the door on his head.
"Whoaβ"
Sober up!
Who dares to steal my sheep?
Huya and Yang Jiao rushed to the pasture to the west with seven or eight hunters, and found that the fence was intact, and the stake holding the goat was still standing, but the rope on it had been broken, and there was a little blood on the green grass.
It definitely didn't run away on its own.
Yang Li picked up the rope and carefully observed the fracture, which seemed to have been cut by a sharp blade, and it was broken very neatly.
Huya's expression was serious, he pushed aside a clump of grass and touched the fertile brown soil at the root of the grass with his hand.
It's a saber-toothed tiger.
Strictly speaking, the saber-toothed tiger is far from the modern feline, they were indeed a cat, but they did not evolve into any of the modern felines, but slowly died out after the end of the Ice Age.
The so-called era of extinction is the period in which Yang Jiao lived.
The ice sheet has faded from the middle latitude to the high latitude, global warming, the Yellow River basin has rhinoceros and the Yellow River elephant, and the vegetation is abundantly covered, and even the Loess Plateau is a lush temperate grassland scene, which is completely different from the thousands of ravines in later generations.
Saber-toothed tigers, which will become less and less adapted to this era, are declining, but not extinct.
Feline beasts have razor-sharp claws, incredible explosiveness, and dagger-like fangs, giving them a formidable fighting power that far exceeds that of a single human.
Catch the head of the goat, how can it be done?
But we want to be called the race that dominates the planet, how can humans who can hunt mammoths be afraid of saber-toothed tigers?
"Let's go! Grab those cats, and I'm going to make a big leather jacket for the deputy leader for the winter!" β
Yang Li's face was hideous, but the picture of himself shirtless, wearing sunglasses and skewering on the street came to mind, and next to him was a hairy girl wearing a mink, holding a head of garlic in her hand.
Huya coughed dryly, interrupting Yang Li's conjecture: "Leader, look at these footprints." β
Yang Li looked in the direction of the tiger's finger, it was amazing, not one or two plum petals, but dense footprints, roughly calculated, there were at least five saber-toothed tigers, this number of tigers launched a night attack, enough to destroy a small settlement.
"How did you find that the sheep are gone?"
"Ge Si went out to herd pigs in the morning, and saw some dark shadows here, thinking that people from other tribes were coming to steal cattle, so he shouted and rushed up, but he didn't expect it to be a saber-toothed tiger." Huya said.
Drink, the pig herder is really fateful, if it weren't for the saber-toothed tiger not having too much killing intent, I'm afraid that he would even have to pay for people and pigs.
Yulia was still lazy in bed, and Yang Jiao didn't want to move the crowd, so he called Xue Pijiang at the moment, set off with Huya, and traced the past along the footprints.
With the giant axe of the tiger tooth and the magic shot of the territory, plus a small team of experienced soldiers, Yang Jiao will not be afraid of the saber-toothed tigers.
It's just that the boy's weapons are a little messy.
flint spears, longbows, deerskin quivers, obsidian knives...... Who gave him so much stuff?
Huya was slightly embarrassed: "Great Chief, Brother Xue's comprehension ability is strong, each of us is eager to teach him our best combat skills, and his current spear is sent by Falcon Wing." β
"Okay, good, don't be greedy and chew too much." Yang Jiao didn't have time to think about the behavior of indiscriminately teaching talent for a few years at this time, but he was thinking about his goat - if he caught up quickly, the sheep should have a chance to survive, right?
In the plot of the novel, after the heroine is captured, the kidnappers must all be upright gentlemen, and they will never touch half a hair of the girl, let alone ruin the chastity of the yellow flower girl.
Why can a woman enjoy this treatment, but my sheep can't.
Yang Li is full of confidence.
The moorland is filled with morning light, and alfalfa, sage, and plantain grow freely, and the dew-stained veins and stems undulate in the wind, reflecting a large golden light.
The hunters walked through the wilderness, with a grove ahead of them, and the footprints of the saber-toothed tiger disappeared.
After going around a rocky field and climbing over a small hill full of thorns, the footprints suddenly disappeared, this forest is a strange place, the vegetation is dense, the weeds are up to the ankles, the shrubs are crazy to grow, and it is a place where human mobility is difficult. Yang Li ordered everyone to shrink their formation, and their spears and battle axes were aimed at the outside, beware of a surprise attack that could come at any time.
"Beware!" Huya suddenly shouted, and the javelin in his hand flew out with a bang.
A dark shadow flashed behind the elm tree, and the tail with brown and yellow spots disappeared behind the trunk.
"Boom!" The javelin, with a thousand powers, sank deep into the elm tree.
The surrounding grass and bushes rattled, and it was impossible to see how many saber-toothed tigers there were.
Yang Jiao shook his head in disbelief, today's opponent is really interesting.
Luring enemies, ambushes, how can the saber-toothed tiger have this posture level, how can it be extinct?
In the midst of doubt, two saber-toothed tigers appeared in front of the team, the tiger teeth shouted, the arrow stepped forward, and Xue Pijiang's longbow was wound and was about to be released.
It's just that the two saber-toothed tigers turned around and ran, as if they were frightened by the tiger's teeth.
The explosive power of the mixed-race giant was too strong, and Yang Li was about to shout, but found that the two tigers and one of them had disappeared into the dense forest of tree shadows.
No, you are a human with tiger teeth, and your IQ has been crushed by cats.
Yang Jiao saw that the strongest combat power was diverted away from the mountain, and there was no better way, fortunately, Xue Bijiang's IQ was online, and this feather arrow was suppressed and not released.
"Huh~" A loud roar sounded all around, a strange tiger came out first, and then the wind shifted around, and a saber-toothed tiger weighing more than half a ton came out one after another, surrounding the hunters.
Yang Jiao was protected in the middle, and his head was covered with fine beads of sweat.
Hell this is, how could there be such a combination!?
What amazed him beyond comprehension was not that the saber-toothed tiger had learned tactics, nor that there were more tigers surrounded than expected, but the strange tiger in front of him-
It is not a saber-toothed tiger.
It was slender, with reddish-brown fur on its torso covered with black stripes, and its claws were broad and thick, but it did not have the dagger-like fangs that were exposed like a saber-toothed tiger.
This is exactly the creature that will replace the saber-toothed tiger, an ice age beast, and become the strongest hunter on the planet in the future.
Siberian tiger.
"Whew." The tiger barked.
Yang Jiao looked at it, hey, this guy hasn't fully grown up, he is only one and a half years old, and there is a hint of childishness in his voice.
You say that you are the king of the feline family in the new era, why are you so depressed, and you are mixed with the decadent feline family of the old era.
The Siberian tiger found that Yang Jiao's eyes were very subtle when he looked at him, and he immediately felt humiliated, and he was furious at the moment, and roared again, and the other seven or eight saber-toothed tigers did not hesitate, showed their canine teeth, and pounced together.
Yang Jiao is full of prestige, with him standing like a mountain in the array, his subordinates will not waver at all, and at that moment everyone shouted together, formed a circle formation, and stabbed out the stone spears in their hands, as if forming a hedgehog-like defense line.
With a scream, one of the saber-toothed tigers was shot in the head by Xue Pijiang's white feather and retreated in a panic.
It's one of the strongest feline beasts on the planet at the moment, and if it were another creature, I'm afraid it would have been killed by this arrow.
The other saber-toothed tigers were startled, and their attacks suddenly eased.
The little Siberian tiger seemed to be the leader of the operation, jumping onto a nearby boulder and roaring again.
The saber-toothed tigers didn't seem to trust it, and several of them roared back as if in retort.
How could Yang Jiao have the time to think about the grievances between their two different feline beasts, the two warriors had been injured by the saber teeth, the wounds were cracked, and the blood was not stopping, although the green muscles were bursting up, and the call sign was guarding him, but after all, it was not suitable to fight for a long time, in the final analysis, he was still put by this evil obstacle.
If the opponent was a human, Yang Li would never plunge headlong into the dense forest.
But the problem is that the opponent is a saber-toothed tiger, and normal people would never have thought that they would cheat.
At the insistence of the little Siberian tiger, the saber-toothed tiger group continued to attack, and even the guy who was injured by the feather arrow turned back to join the battle, Yang Jiao's formation was crumbling, and the spear kept stabbing and stabbing, but the effect was not good, and the human nerve reflex was several orders of magnitude worse than the feline, and the number of battles was similar, without the advantage of traps and terrain, it was too difficult to win.
Damn it. Yang Jiao was hit by a grasp in the arm, and the blood flowed profusely, but he really didn't want to retreat, which meant that Huya would have to face a siege by a whole group of saber-toothed tigers.
You can't leave him alone.
Yang Li gritted his teeth: "Don't support us!" Break through the frontier and shoot that little tiger! β
Xue Pijiang had already shot four saber-toothed tigers one after another, but the bow power in ancient times was limited after all, not enough to kill the giant beast, and when the young man heard Yang Jiao's command, he didn't ask the reason, and directly aimed the white feather at the Siberian tiger on the boulder.
"Zhengβ"
The bowstring burst through the woods, and the aftermath was long.
A white light flashed, and the Siberian tiger wanted to dodge, but it was too late, and it couldn't dodge, so it could only move half an inch away, watching the flint-made arrow peak break through the fur, tear the muscles, and pierce into the chest.
With a howl of pain, the little tiger fell off the boulder, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead!
"It's now!" Yang Li raised his hand and pointed, "Break through with me!" β
Seven or eight spears moved forward in unison, under the sharp weapons created by human beings for hunting and even war, no beast could resist, no living creature could make its edge, and the direction of Yang Jiao's breakthrough was the direction in which Huya ran away.
The saber-toothed tigers gained the advantage, where they were willing to let go, and chased and killed them, vowing to wipe out this group of humans.
But they couldn't finish the hunt.
Huya came back, he carried the corpse of a huge saber-toothed tiger on his shoulder, twenty steps away, shouted angrily, threw the dead tiger, smashed the pursuing tigers, and then picked up the big axe, and went straight to kill the general, the wheel-like big axe overflowed with murderous aura, and the surrounding grass and thorns broke together, turning into debris in the sky.
"Who dares to stop me!" The giant man's eyes were red, and he saw that Yang Jiao's body was half covered in blood, and he saw that many comrades-in-arms were injured.
You must know that the leader has always controlled the direction of every battle since he came to the Riverbend - no human has ever injured him, but this time, he was almost defeated by the brutes!
I can't bear it!
In the midst of the lightning, one saber-toothed tiger was beheaded by the tiger's teeth, and the other two were wounded, and with the help of their companions, they fled with their lives.
The tigers suddenly lost their will to fight.
The Great Rout.
"Whew~" The half-sized little Siberian tiger ran out with the feathered arrows it shot, trembling step by step, as if calling for support from its companions, translated into tiger language, probably the old driver took me.
But the saber-toothed tigers roared and forced it back, as if they were disgusted by the failure of its command, and left the little Siberian tiger in its place, and retreated.
Ha, Yang Li is overjoyed.
You are the culprit, you made a trap to trap Lao Tzu, this is good, not only lost the life of your companion, but even yourself was abandoned, come, cry for us.
The leader of Yang smiled and led everyone to press forward, surrounding the cowering little Siberian tiger in the center.
