Section 12 The Unquiet Prairie Night

When the sun was setting in the west, and the shadow of Mount Kilimanjaro had not yet cast its shadows, Lao Luo found a perch and did not plan to continue walking, and it was a cruel joke to hike through the grassland at night.

This habitat is a relatively high soil slope, on the top of the slope are three golden trees, this kind of tree on the African savannah grows very strangely, like clouds blown by the wind, all the leaves seem to grow in a thin layer at the top, a straight or curved stem below, sometimes even a large grassland only this one tree, like a signal marker.

There is not much grass on the soil slope, almost a thin layer of the ground surface, Lao Luo mainly checks whether there are ants and scorpions, African ants are very powerful, and the same is true for scorpions, after being bitten, it is generally not fatal, but it will be itchy and unbearable, and it is likely to carry some viruses.

After checking that there were no snakes and insects, Lao Luo cut a bunch of thorny low shrubs from a distance as usual, and set up the perimeter as he did in the jungle of Shagayu. The difference is that there is no need to worry about the people in the black tribe here, because they will definitely not come to the grassland at night, as long as they guard against the beasts, so Lao Luo tied the low trees and shrubs high and dense, and sprinkled the ground with sulfur powder found in the jungle, so that there was no need to worry about hyenas, coyotes or lions burrowing in or jumping in, and there was no need to worry about snakes crawling in from the ground.

After all this, it was already slowly dark, Lao Luo hurriedly lit the bonfire and made dinner, the little serval Hua Biao experienced such a night for the first time, turning around, and sneezing from time to time stimulated by sulfur powder.

Dinner is still the same, barbecue, fish soup, Lao Luo now misses the days of rice. It is estimated that it is difficult to find rice in Africa in this era, the black people of the tribe have very mixed tastes, dare to eat anything, as long as they can eat it, there is no one who does not eat, it is estimated that there is no rice, the Arabs and the Mediterranean people are almost the same, they all grow wheat and eat pasta. Oh, the pasta is good, some steamed bread or something, Lao Luo, a carnivore, is also a little impatient, although breadfruit is also vegetable starch, but after all, it is not as good as the taste of bread made of wheat flour, so you must think of ways to improve it.

Fortunately, if nothing goes wrong, I should be in Mombasa soon, and I should be able to meet someone who can communicate.

After dinner, Lao Luo had nothing to do, so he took out the Jingyuan book and read it from the beginning, just like when he was forced by his old father to read the Yellow Emperor's internal scriptures, but at that time he was forced to escape, and now he has to learn in order to better understand the secret art of Jingyuan, which will become the foundation of Lao Luo's survival in this era.

“…… The ancients, those who know, the law is in yin and yang, and in the number of techniques, the diet is modest, the daily life is constant, and the work is not vain, so it can form and be with the gods, and end its days, and live a hundred years old is to go to the ......" This is obviously the content of the "Yellow Emperor Neijing, Su Wen", Su Wen talks about the traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment method, and "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing, Lingshu" is the treatment method, the two pieces contain the coordination function of various parts of the human body organs, although Lao Luo does not know medical skills, but under the influence of the old father, this concept is still understood. Maybe it's just a re-implementation of the old father's teachings and a warm book.

Unlike the original camping in the jungle, this grassland habitat is surrounded by lively hunting grounds, where the howling of coyotes in the east has just stopped, and the sound of lions chasing wildebeest in the west is low from far and near, followed by the muffled screams of prey being bitten to death, and the roar of lions fighting for food, and then the barking of hyenas.

Lao Luo's ears are now very sensitive, and he feels that the recent cry is also a hundred meters away, so he simply ignores it, only the serval cat Hua Biao has not learned to be calm, and he was startled by the sound, and he shrugged his ears from time to time, and then stood up, looked around, and saw that Lao Luo did not move, so he squatted down again.

This day is the last quarter of the moon, and when the crescent moon rises from the east, Lao Luo plans to rest his eyes and pretend to sleep, anyway, the surroundings are surrounded by bushes, unless an elephant runs over, lions and other carnivores cannot come in, at most they smell something, go around in circles outside, want to come in, first become a hedgehog or a porcupine.

When the second quarter moon was about to reach the middle of the sky, the serval Hua Biao woke up Lao Luo, and Lao Luo looked up just in time to see the second quarter moon that was about to reach the middle of the sky, it was almost dawn, and sure enough, the east had begun to whiten. Look at Hua Biao, Lao Luo is a little strange, Hua Biao is very honest at night, he never bothers him when he has nothing to do, he is a very dedicated guy, it seems that something is wrong.

Lao Luo stood up, and then looked at the outside of the bush low wall in the moonlight, and sure enough, there were two long-haired sneaky figures with their heads on their heads, which should be two wandering male lions. Lion this animal is very interesting, most of the lion in a lion group only one male lion, the rest are all female lions, the usual hunting is led by the lioness, the male lion is responsible for attacking or mending the knife of the goods, but the male lion is the first to eat prey, the lion is responsible for raising and teaching the lion cub, if the male lion feels that he is left out by the lioness, he may bite or eat the lion cub, and so the lion cub grows up, if it is a male lion will be driven away, the driven male lion will become a stray lion, The wandering life does not end until a wandering male lion is accepted by a certain lioness pack, or the male lion who challenges a certain lion pack wins.

The two in front of me are obviously the stray lions who were driven out of the lion group together, and by looking at the actions, you can know that these two are obviously two goods, and they know that they dare not cross the thorny bushes, and they are still hanging here.

Lao Luo felt angry, these two things were blocked outside, and the time to set off at dawn would be delayed later. "This is a door-to-door delivery of leather goods...... "If it is a lioness, Lao Luo is too lazy to take care of it, at most he will drive away, these two look at the coat color is not bad, and they are ready to leave them.

Pulling out the throwing gun, Lao Luo didn't feel right, and it was not good if the fur was injured.

Put the gun back, reach out and hold up Hua Biao and put it on the fork of a golden ** tree - the serval is a cat that can climb trees but is too lazy to climb trees to prey.

Opening the bushes and barely passing through the gap of a lion, Lao Luo picked up his long knife and held his breath while holding his breath on the side of the gap, depending on how brave these two guys were.

In less than ten minutes, one of the two fools began to probe his head in the gap, and after a while, one lion went ahead, and the other followed closely behind and began to probe in, apparently preparing to pounce on the first one and the other to follow closely behind, catching the prey by surprise.

At this point, the mother of the two male lions can only be blamed for not educating them how to choose their prey. The first lion just poked out his head from the gap, and before he could pounce, Lao Luo's knife arrived, or the back of the knife, and he heard a "click", and the leading lion lay on the ground in response, and the lion behind was obviously in a hurry, and was squeezing the lion in front of him to rush in, hearing the sound, and before he could stop, Lao Luo's long knife was flipped, or the back of the knife was rushing to the lion behind, and there was a "click", this knife directly hit the back of the lion's mandible, that is, the middle throat position, Lao Luo held the knife in one hand, With the other hand, he grabbed the mane of the lion's neck that was falling into the bushes, hooked it back, and threw the creature directly on the ground inside the habitat, while holding the knife with both hands, and the blade slapped horizontally directly on the cheek of the lion's head. The two lions hung up without saying a word.

It's a bit trivial to say, in fact, the reaction time of this operation is only a few seconds, the first lion was directly broken by Lao Luo with the back of the knife to break the cervical vertebrae, so it didn't even struggle, the second was first hit in the throat, it is estimated that the neck bone was injured at the same time, and then Lao Luo fell to the ground, and then was slapped by the knife on the side of the cheek skull, which was also a life. Of course, if Lao Luo didn't have this seventy or eighty pound long knife, he wouldn't have been able to achieve such a fast effect.

In fact, this is the soldier's tactics, which can save effort and effort, and never use more moves. Some movies in later generations show that the protagonist fights with the villain or something for a long time, that's nonsense, just for the needs of ratings. In fact, the Chinese people who practice the national art are also this kind of play, instead of ping pong for a while, and find that the opponent has nothing to do, the national art play method has a purpose, to defeat the opponent, where to kill the fight, the so-called "no move, no fight is a while". There are exceptions, but that's when the two opponents have similar reaction speed and strength skills, and even then, the attack position must be beckoning to the deadly place, and once one side dodges and is not in a hurry, it is the time to die.

Lao Luo plugged the gap in the bushes again, looked at the two dead lions, "Hehe...... It's really delivered to your home. "I just don't know what the two lions would have done if they still had ideas.

Picked up Hua Biao from the tree and put it next to the lion, only to see that Hua Biao's hair all over his body was blown up, and the hair on his tail was also standing one by one, and he was "purring" in his mouth, turning around the two dead lions. Lao Luo is cultivating servals as leopards.
