Chapter 217: Migrating Mammoths

The two fugitives are still alive, which Wang Chuan is more satisfied with. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

This also shows that Wolf Ting is very measured. This also strengthened Wang Chuan's confidence in letting her go.

When the tooth wound and others fled, there were few people in the tribe, and it was not necessary to show the crowd or anything. But now that the tribe has reached the size of a thousand people, the situation has become complicated, and all kinds of vigilance methods to kill one hundred in later generations must now be used. A public display becomes absolutely necessary.

In the past, the tribe lacked people, and these slaves were too tolerant, and they basically joined the tribe after three or two months of labor. Now there is no shortage of people in the tribe, and in the future, unless these exchanged slaves have special skills, they should work hard if they want to join the tribe, and one year is the minimum period.

When Wang Chuan met Wolf Ting, it was getting dark, so everyone lit a bonfire and camped all night. As long as Wolf Ting and a few wolf dogs are in the camp, the wolves will stay around, and there is no problem with safety.

At dawn, the big wolf dog who became the wolf king also brought breakfast to Wang Chuan and others: several wild boars, large and small.

The people ate on the spot, fed the baby elephant and the little rhinoceros, and even the two fugitive slaves, and then rushed to the tribe at dawn.

At noon, near the passage of the sparse forest, the sound of mammoths chirping was heard in the distance. This is a herd of elephants passing through the passage, smelling blood and chirping alarmingly.

When everyone heard these voices, they subconsciously stopped. After hearing this, the baby elephant paused, but it was running with his nose and legs raised.

Wang Chuan wanted to get off the back of the baby elephant, but after the baby elephant ran away, the speed was so fast, where could he jump?

Seeing that the people behind him were about to chase after him, he hurriedly shouted: "Stop, wait for the elephant herd to pass, I will wait for you on the opposite road......"

Mother warned that mammoths like to attack approaching beasts during their migration. Wang Chuan had also seen mammoths expel all the beasts in the vicinity of their territory. Hearing these elephants, the baby elephant was just evoked some kind of memory, and it was just a matter of going to see it, and it was not much dangerous to be alone in the baby elephant, but if a bunch of people came out and annoyed the passing elephant herd, it would be a lot of fun.

In an unprepared encounter, the dozen or so people of the tribe may have suffered a lot of casualties.

When everyone heard Wang Chuan's words, they didn't dare to chase after them, only the strong bull riding the little rhinoceros followed behind the baby elephant and ran crazy together.

For the little rhinoceros, if his brother runs away, he must keep up, and as for where to go, he doesn't have the heart to think about it.

The nature of looking for companions made the baby elephant run wildly, and Wang Chuan tried his best to grasp its fur and buried his head under the baby elephant's shoulder, so as to avoid being thrown and dodging the branches flying over his head. The little rhinoceros was no slower than the baby elephant, but the little rhinoceros did not have a bulge on his back like a mammoth's shoulders to hide, which made him scream from the big and small branches all the way. If he hadn't grabbed the neck sleeve around the little rhinoceros's neck, he might have been beaten down.

Approaching the passage of the sparse forest, the baby elephant finally stopped, watching the herd of mammoths in the passage slowly walk south.

In the passage are three herds of mammoths, or a large herd, walking in three small groups. There are seven or eight in each small group, and they guard the weak elephants in the middle, and the adult elephants are around. The distance between the elephants is more than 100 meters, and the front and back correspond to each other.

The elephants' long coats are mainly red and brown, and their hair is messy and covered in mud, and some of them have traces of blood. Among the three herds, there is a tall male elephant that stands out in particular. It is a golden hair, more than five meters tall, and when it walks among elephants, it is more than one meter taller than other elephants. Its long horns are strewn with mottled marks, and it's clear that it's been through countless battles in its life.

It was also supposed to be the leader of the three herds, and when the baby elephant and the baby rhinoceros emerged from the surface, it was the first to approach this side, and when it saw that it was just two small things, it didn't pay much attention.

Then it cleverly guided its herd past the deep pit dug by the River Tribe. When his party had passed, he stood up and pulled down a waist-thick tree next to it, which lay across the edge of the pit, apparently to warn other elephants passing by.

Wang Chuan quietly got off the back of the baby elephant when it stopped.

Seeing these kinds, the baby elephant was quite excited. Several times he raised his feet to join them, but as soon as he approached, the females in the herd immediately raised their noses and shook their heads to drive them away. This was done several times, until a few elephants were gone, and the baby elephants did not succeed in joining them.

Turning his head to see Wang Chuan on the side, the little elephant screamed, and tears almost flowed from his black eyes.

Wang Chuan pinched the nose of the baby elephant angrily and funny: "I wanted to leave me alone just now, but now that people don't want you, do you want to get up and cry my nose?" ”

Zhuang Niu said: "We have raised the baby elephant well, why should it leave?" ”

Domestic and wild ones are easy to tell when they stand together. Although the baby elephant also has long brown hair, its long hair is clean and layered. Long-term abundant food has made it quite plump. Restful and adequate sleep makes its eyes look bright and bright. Standing with the elephants, it's like a princess standing in the crowd of slums.

Well, although it is male, it gives Wang Chuan the feeling that this is it.

Seeing the baby elephant abandon him to join the elephant herd just now, Wang Chuan was very reluctant. In the past year, one person and one elephant get along day and night, everyone has grown up in an unfamiliar environment, and it can be said that Wang Chuan's feelings for it are no less than those for the tribe. Fortunately, it didn't leave, otherwise Wang Chuan would have been distressed for a while.

Hearing Zhuang Niu's question, Wang Chuan said: "This is the instinct of animals to find a group. ”

Zhuang Niu said: "Then why don't the elephant herd want it?" ”

Wang Chuan said: "The baby elephant is too small to have the ability to protect itself, and it can't even find food. When it joins the herd, it will increase the burden on the herd, and the mother elephants are worried that the addition of the baby elephant will affect the status of their children, so they do not allow it to join. ”

Wang Chuan took out the salt, poured it into a bamboo tube filled with water, and then poured it out little by little to feed the baby elephants. This product is so sad now, and it's like a child, and it's really not okay if you don't coax it. If you don't have anything else in your hand, let's take it with salt water first. Go back and see how the plum wine is made, and then go back and coax it with plum wine, it should be about the same.

From this incident, Wang Chuan saw two problems.

One is that the baby elephant may one day leave him and embark on a migration journey with other elephants. He had to be mentally prepared for this.

The second is that these people in the tribe are really brainless. Hunting mammoths also did not know to find a place a little further away from the tribe. This section of the sparse forest passage is closest to the tribe in a straight line, and it just opens the way to the side. In case they annoyed the elephants and aroused their hostility, they rushed across the road at full speed, fearing that the tribe would not even have time to warn.

It is important to know that mammoths can run at speeds of up to fifty kilometers per hour. It's only a dozen kilometers from here to the tribe, and it's really only a matter of twenty minutes.

Last year, the lame mother of the baby elephant almost wiped out the dolphin tribe with one elephant, and if it really annoyed the elephant herd like the one just now, twenty or thirty of them attacked together, and the river tribe might have to start all over again.
