Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Frightened Red Muntjac!(Recommend!Collect!)
Under the leadership of Lie, the group walked quickly through the jungle and galloped for nearly half an hour before stopping.
It is a dense jungle with complex terrain and many bushes.
After Lie's eyes swept around, he turned to everyone and said, "Everyone find a place to hide, and don't make any noise." ”
"Yes. ”
Hearing Lie's words, the veteran team members immediately nodded in response.
Then, he quickly searched for a place to hide.
And Lin Luo and the newcomers were a little confused.
Didn't you say that you came to hunt? Why did you hide before you saw any prey?
Moreover, neither Lie nor other veteran team members have yet to introduce the red muntjac to them.
Until now, they don't even know what the red muntjac looks like.
However, in the face of Lie's order, they didn't dare to raise any objections, and after being stunned for a few seconds, they all began to look for a place to hide.
Lin Luo looked around and squatted directly into a cluster of bushes not far away.
The bushes were about a meter tall and grew so dense that he was crouching in them, and it was hard to notice.
When everyone was hidden, the surroundings instantly became quiet.
One minute......
Five minutes......
Ten minutes......
As time passed quietly, and soon ten minutes passed, and they were still hiding, not seeing any movement.
However, Lin Luo also probably guessed that they were waiting for the appearance of the red muntjac.
This made Lin Luo even more curious, what kind of animal is the red muntjac, and it needs to be hunted in this way.
"Squeak~!"
Suddenly, Lin Luo heard a soft sound from the left direction.
Here it comes?
Hearing this sound, Lin Luo's heart suddenly sank, and he immediately turned his head to look.
However, the result was a big disappointment for him.
Because, it wasn't the red muntjac who made the movement just now, but the Feng who was hiding not far from his left.
Looking at the irritation on his face, he knew that this silent waiting had made him a little impatient.
Just now, when he was moving his right leg, which was a little numb, he accidentally stepped on a tree branch, so he made a movement.
There was no doubt that he was greeted by Lie's fierce gaze full of warning.
Seeing this silent shouting, Feng immediately lowered his head, not daring to make any more movements.
After that, the silent wait continued.
This time, after about five or six minutes, Lie suddenly stood up from the grass and threw the stone spear in his hand violently.
Seeing Lie's movements, Lin Luo couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
This time, he didn't hear any movement around him, and he didn't understand why Lie suddenly threw the stone spear.
But the next moment, the answer reached his ears.
"Wang, Wang, Wang......"
While he was stunned, a short, loud bark rang out.
Is the red muntjac a dog?
Hearing this sudden barking sound, a bold idea came to Lin Luo's mind.
No, it doesn't quite look like a dog barking.
But then, he immediately shook his head and denied the speculation.
Although this barking sound is very similar to a dog barking, there are some differences from the actual dog barking.
Full of doubts, Lin Luo immediately got up from the bushes and rushed in the direction where the voice came from.
At this time, the others were also no longer hiding, and they all walked there.
After getting closer, Lin Luo was finally able to see the appearance of the red muntjac clearly.
Sure enough, as he had just thought, the red muntjac only barked like a dog, not a real dog.
In terms of appearance, the red muntjac is very similar to the deer, but it is smaller, most of the coat color on the body is reddish-brown, and the belly is grayish-white.
On its head, there is also a pair of two prongs that bend backwards.
However, what made Lin Luo puzzled was that the stone spear thrown by Lie just now did not cause serious damage to the red muntjac, but only cut a wound on its back that was not too deep.
However, as if he had been seriously injured, the red muntjac lay directly on the ground, barking vigorously and vigorously.
"Is this the red muntjac?
Feng, who also rushed over, immediately said with contempt on his face after seeing the red muntjac: "It's just that you have suffered such a small injury, so you are afraid to move?"
After saying that, he also gently kicked the red muntjac in the stomach twice with his foot.
"Wang, Wang, Wang......"
Suddenly, the barking became louder and louder.
That posture is almost like the cry of a pig waiting to be slaughtered.
Seeing this, Yongji pulled out the dagger from his waist without saying a word and slashed it on the neck of the red muntjac.
Suddenly, Lin Luo felt that the whole world was quiet.
"The red muntjac is timid and cautious, usually hiding in the bushes during the day to rest, and only comes out in the early morning, dusk or evening to feed. ”
While wiping the blood stains from the dagger, Yong said to Lin Luo and the newcomers: "If you want to hunt the red muntjac, it can be said that it is difficult, and it can also be said that it is very easy.
The difficulty is that they are very cautious and do not make any noise when they walk, and can only be detected by their eyes.
Moreover, at the slightest movement around them, they will be frightened and start running wildly, and they are very fast and extremely agile.
The simple reason is that they are very timid, and they do not need to cause any fatal injuries, as long as they inflict the slightest minor injury, they will be so frightened that they will not even be able to walk. ”
Hearing Yong's story, Lin Luo immediately thought of the famous Angora sheep on the earth, as long as it was slightly frightened, it would lie on the ground with stiff limbs.
"So, if you want to hunt the red muntjac, you need to hide yourself and wait quietly. ”
After a pause, Yong continued to say to them: "Once you spot the figure of the red muntjac, don't think about sneaking closer, throw a stone spear directly at them. ”
"That's too much trouble, isn't it?"
After listening to Yong's story, Feng said with some irritability: "This red muntjac doesn't look as big as an antelope, is it just for such a little meat?"
"Yes, it's better to go hunting in the barren grasslands. ”
As soon as Feng's words were finished, a newcomer nodded in agreement and said.
This time, even Lin Luo somewhat agreed with Feng's point of view.
After all, the red muntjac seems to be estimated to be less than two hundred catties, and it needs to squat for such a long time, obviously the pay and the return are not quite in line.
It's really better to go hunting in the barren grassland, and the harvest of hunting a herd of antelopes at random is probably greater than the harvest of a red muntjac squatting overnight.
"Red muntjac is not hunted for food, but for their fur. ”
At this time, Lie, who had never spoken before, said: "The fur of the red muntjac is short and soft, and it has an excellent warmth effect.
The children of the tribe who are still in their arms need to be kept warm by the fur of the red muntjac to survive the long dead season. ”
Hearing Lie's words, Feng and the newcomer who had just spoken immediately immediately closed their mouths, not daring to complain any more.
Reproduction is the top priority of the entire tribe at any given time.
Only by ensuring the healthy survival of the children can the tribe multiply and grow.
Lin Luo was also a little moved after hearing Lie's words.
He knew that the children in Lie's arms were babies who were less than a year old.
Their bodies are still very fragile, and in this primitive world where they can only rely on firewood for heating, if they do not have good warmth measures, they are easy to die in the cold and death season of more than minus 40 degrees.
So, if it's for those babies, let alone squatting for more than ten minutes, it's worth it even if it's squatting for a day.
Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Lie looked at them and continued: "This area is an area where the red muntjac often moves, and there are no powerful beasts infested.
Now let's all go separately and go hunt the red muntjac!"
"Yes!"
Hearing this, everyone immediately nodded in reply, and their voices were unusually loud and powerful.
