Volume 2 Chapter 103 Peak Duel
The results have been released, the first and third arrows hit accurately, the second arrow missed, especially the first arrow was almost on the vital part, which should have caused it more obvious damage!
Seeing that its movements are obviously not as flexible as at the beginning, the pain also makes it swing without turning, and it is not a very wise choice to rush up at this time, but if it does not go up, it will definitely escape, and it will escape five meters away in just three or four seconds.
This was not the time to hesitate, and the moment I lowered my bow, I rushed forward with my fishing net and spear.
Panicky? Afraid? No, no, no, now all I'm thinking about is how to beat it!
Its ferocity is not much different from the original No. 2 player, and there is a certain amount of excess in all aspects, if its combat power is compared to a hundred, two arrows only make it lower by thirty, that is, there is still 70 combat power left!
The third arrow weakened because of the hasty shooting, only about ten centimeters deep into the flesh, and only the first arrow hurt it relatively much, which also shows how rough and thick it is.
Now I regret not bringing the bow and arrows with me, so that I could still chase it and shoot at a distance of less than ten meters, miscalculated, miscalculated......
At the very least, you must throw the fishing net on its body to make it lose a certain amount of mobility, otherwise it will only take a minute or two to escape into the sea, and then there will be endless troubles.
The villain is the villain, and it is also the most intelligent in this group of crocodiles, and when I rushed five meters away with a fishing net and a spear, it rushed towards me in a reverse direction.
Even if you have enough hunting experience and similar experience at the beginning, you are scared out of a cold sweat again, this kind of scene cannot be experienced without on-site experience, and it is extremely exciting!
Unexpectedly, it fled in other directions the moment I retreated, with no intention of chasing me.
How smart it is, and knowing how to run around the road instead of running in a straight line, it seems that I still underestimate its intelligence, and the actions in the future must be more careful!
......
I just threw the fishing net at it in the process of escaping in a hurry, but unfortunately the hurried throw didn't work at all, and I didn't even touch its edge!
This delay caused it to run ten meters away, and it could not go on like this, and it would be able to go down from the edge of the beach to the sea after two more tosses, and the next time it was found, I don't know when it would be.
Picking up the net from the ground, I rushed towards it again, and the speed on land was completely my home field, but it was only three or four seconds before I caught up with it again.
The moment it caught up, it turned around again and pretended to attack me, but this time it was not so lucky, I didn't take a half step back at all, but rushed towards it.
Although I was panicked, I was in danger!
When it was less than three meters away from its bloody mouth, my fear reached its peak, and I could even smell the fishy stench coming from its mouth, and I couldn't get any closer, and my legs were trembling......
The opportunity had come, and when it tried to approach me, the net fell from the sky and fell directly on its head, and successfully caught the arrows on its body, as long as there was a point of force, it was too difficult to get rid of the net again.
I didn't attack the first time the net was thrown, but chose to retreat, and before the net succeeded in restraining it, it was definitely not a wise choice to go forward and fight in close combat, and the chance of becoming fish feces was as high as 80%.
So I didn't choose to die, it was best to observe first and then get closer!
The target of the net was the basis for victory, and it swung repeatedly in the process of trying to get rid of the net, but it wrapped itself tighter and tighter, and after a few seconds one of its front paws was firmly entangled in the net and its mobility was greatly reduced.
......
Seeing that its speed slowed down significantly, it was obviously a good opportunity to get close, even if it was still very scared, at this time, it could only muster up the courage to step forward again.
Originally, its range of movement was not large, but I saw that I began to swing violently behind me, so that I could only keep moving and dodging for a while, and finally stabbed twice, but it only broke the skin slightly, and even failed to deal effective damage.
This made me anxious, and at the same time I found it very difficult to mend the sword with the spear, especially since it was still constantly rolling, and I had to give up the spear and go back to the place where I had just shot the arrow, and get the bow and arrow back in my hand.
Today's mending knife can only be carried out with a bow and arrow, fortunately, it was successfully entangled in a fishing net and lost most of its mobility, otherwise it is estimated that it would have run away long ago!
It was still struggling violently, and in order not to sleep too much at night, I shot the first arrow without even adjusting my breath.
At such a close distance, the damage of one arrow may be greater than the damage of the first two arrows combined, and if it could jump, this arrow would surely make it jump three feet in pain.
Then came the second and third arrows, and the crocodile with five arrows was apparently not so irritable at first, and began to become docile, and I knew that a thrilling hunt had ended by this time, and it had no strength to escape!
The final end is still done by the bow and arrow, and an arrow hits the crocodile directly on the head, which also completely ends its life!
The threat of crocodiles is far away from me, and it is no longer a problem to go to sea in the future, everything seems to be back to the original state, and the exploration of the sea can be carried out in an orderly manner!
It won't be long before the shipbuilding program can begin......
Before that, of course, I had to process the meat of the crocodile's handle, which was the last amount of meat I could get, and I would have to live on mutton and fish again.
......
This crocodile weighs at least more than 700 catties, or even 800 catties, and a few hundred catties of fresh meat is certainly worth rejoicing, but the process of handling it makes people not happy at all.
The rough skin and thick flesh are a bit underestimated about it, and the steel and iron bones may be more suitable for it, and when it is decomposed with a dagger, it fails to penetrate its flesh, and is directly blocked by the hard fish skin!
In the end, there was no way to slowly cut through the wound to widen the incision, and now that I think about it, it is no wonder that the spear cannot be pierced, and the strength of the bow is twenty pounds smaller, it may not be enough to damage it.
Fortunately, there is enough iron for me to use, and without the iron arrows to break the defense, it can only be a fool's dream to solve this group of crocodiles, and the result may be that I can only be trapped on the island for the rest of my life, either starving to death or dying of thirst one day, or being eaten by fish when I go to sea!
After removing the fish head, internal organs and fish skin, there are still more than 400 catties of pure meat left, and it alone can ensure that I will not have a shortage of meat within half a year, but the process of carrying it home is sour.
The original nearly forty catties of salt at home are almost exhausted in less than two years now, and if it weren't for the recent intermittent boiling of seawater collection, I am afraid it would take a few days to boil salt.
......
The threat of the crocodile is over, and after dealing with the crocodile meat, he suddenly feels relaxed, and it seems that the whole person is lighter!
The shipbuilding work will be delayed for a few days, there is a lot of garbage on the beach, there should be something I can use, it is worth visiting, and the greens and corn are about to be transplanted.
Just in case, this time I still carried a spear and a bow and arrow when I went out to patrol the island, picking up garbage is one aspect, and checking if there are any missing crocodiles is also one of the purposes.
There are still crocodile skulls scattered on the beach, each of which is a former battlefield, and every battle is still vivid, as if it was just yesterday, but the earliest battle has been almost a year, and time always slips away inadvertently, making people unprepared!
Not long after we set off, I picked up a paint bucket and a large piece of fabric, which also indicates that today's harvest will be very expensive, and people are full of anticipation.
Sure enough, it took only half an hour to go forward and pick up a fishing net, but the size was very different from the previous hundreds of meters, only about 50 meters, but it was also happy, I was missing the fishing net.
The rest of the journey was a little smaller, with only a small bundle of rope and two or three catties of ironware, and a few plastic bottles.
In addition to picking up a lot of supplies on this trip, it is true that there are no crocodiles on the island and its surroundings, and the unexpected joy is to find the crocodile that escaped last time, and its location is hundreds of meters away from the location where it was ambushed in the first place.
Later, he may have died in the sea water and was washed back by the waves, and now only a complete skeleton remains, and the lost arrow is still in its skeleton, which can be said to be conclusive evidence.
It's hard to spot without looking closely, as it's in the middle of the reef at the edge of the sea.
The last trace of risk has also been eliminated, which is reassuring, and you can boldly do things and go to the sea in the future!
......
After five days of transplanting corn and greens seedlings into the ground and taking care of the various crops a little, the shipbuilding work can be officially started, and time waits for no one.
In order to ensure the safety of sailing at sea and the large capacity required for the later transfer of supplies, the pre-conceived hull shape will be relatively large, so that there is sufficient buoyancy.
Big certainly has great benefits, but it's also a disaster for me, I don't expect to be able to move it even after the construction is completed, which undoubtedly brings great challenges to the difficulty of construction.
Therefore, I had to think carefully about how to get it into the water before making it, and if this was not planned, the finished boat would have to be placed on the beach in the wind and rain and not for my use.
In the end, it can only become a beautiful scenery, and it humiliates myself, and every time I see it, I think of my stupidity!
This also led to the construction of an additional facility in addition to shipbuilding, which greatly increased the amount of work and took more time.
The next five days of work were monotonous and tedious, just digging a large pit more than four meters long, two meters wide and one meter deep, four or five meters from the sea at a distance of four or five meters from the sea with a shovel.
Needless to say, its function is actually the dry dock of the modern shipbuilding industry, and many ways have been thought of, but after being eliminated one by one, there are only two most practical methods, that is, the two most common methods in the modern shipbuilding industry.
One is to lay a layer of wooden stakes on the bottom layer and row down, and the second is to dig a small dock, which may be easier if it is relatively labor-saving, and the workload may only be about a day more.
