Chapter 8 Beast Tides and Herbivores

The faces of the two older clansmen changed slightly, and they hurriedly fell to the ground, putting their ears to the ground and listening carefully.

"Chief, it seems that there is a wave of beasts coming from our side, if we can't dodge, I'm afraid we will ......" The old man's face was extremely ugly, and there was a trace of horror in his eyes, and when the others heard it, they caused a commotion, and they all looked at Chu Nan, hoping that they, the chief, could think of a good way.

"Is there a slightly higher spot nearby?" Chu Nan's mind spun rapidly, looking at the clansmen around him.

"There should be a mound on the left, I used to be hunting because I got lost, I seem to have been here, and I haven't been here since, I don't know if I'm mistaken." A middle-aged man scratched his head.

"Okay, let's lean over now, everyone should try to pick up some firewood on the road, the more the better, hurry, the speed, let's go." After Chu Nan finished speaking, let the clansman lead the way.

It took less than half an hour to come to a large mound, which was about three zhang high and covered an area of tens of zhang.

Chu Nan asked everyone to quickly come to the top of the hill, see the direction where the beasts were coming, and let people light a fire on the side of the mound, and then lit a pile every other zhang, a total of dozens of piles, filled this side of the mound, and put all the firewood they found on the fire, and instantly the fire was connected together, setting off a fire more than one zhang high.

Chu Nan asked the people to continue to look for firewood, whether it was dry or wet, all of them were found and thrown into the fire, and the raging fire stained half of the sky red, fortunately, the trees around this hill were relatively scarce, otherwise, it would have to cause a forest fire.

Then each of them got a torch and hid behind the fire.

No sooner had the people taken refuge than there was a loud rumble, mixed with the roars and wails of countless wild beasts.

Chu Nan saw countless beasts emerging from the distance of the forest from the side, and there were more and more beasts, and finally a sea of beasts was formed, and ten thousand beasts were galloping, rushing in the direction where they were.

All the clansmen who saw this scene closed their eyes in fear, and the clansmen who couldn't see it were all pale, revealing a trace of despair.

Just as the beasts were about to come to the hill, they suddenly separated from the middle and squeezed in both directions, and although some of the beasts still ran headlong into them, they let out a terrible roar as soon as they ran into the fire, which made the beasts that followed them wake up a little, and run in both directions.

At this time, the flames became more and more vigorous, like a wall of flames, blocking the beasts, and the mounds at this time became isolated islands in the sea of beasts, floating uncertainly, and there was a possibility of being submerged by the sea of beasts at any time, but it was never submerged.

Seeing this, the clansmen's eyes were full of hope, and they threw all the firewood in their hands into the wall of fire, making the wall of fire more vigorous.

The tide of beasts came and went as fast as they came, and in less than a quarter of an hour, all the beasts had disappeared into the barren forest behind them.

Chu Nan sat on the ground with his buttocks, although it was only less than a quarter of an hour, but he felt that it had been a few years and so long, and he knew how terrifying the beast tide was after personal experience, even if he was not eaten, he would be trampled into meat puree.

Seeing that the beast tide disaster had been avoided, all the clansmen sat down on the ground, then stood up again and knelt down in front of Chu Nan.

"Chieftain, you are the messenger of the god of fire!"

"My lord, you were sent by heaven to save us, and we all survived such a disaster under your command."

"You are the Son of God and our Savior."

"Yes, the chief is not a messenger of the god of fire, but a son of the god of fire, otherwise, how can we use the divine fire without being punished by the god of fire?"

"Yes, yes, you see, this time the chief saved us again with divine fire, stopping countless beasts, if it weren't for the chief, we would all die today."

"Perhaps we, under the leadership of the chief, can avoid this Vulcan wrath."

"It's not possible, it's definitely possible, as long as the chief is here, the god of fire will protect us, the god of heaven bless."

Everyone praised Chu Nan and bowed down to him.

Whether it was a man or a woman in the clan, an old man or a child, the eyes that looked at Chu Nan at this time all turned into reverence, reverence and respect from the bottom of his heart.

Chu Nan instructed the clansmen to hurry up and look for it under the hills, after such a beast tide, there must be many injured beasts, or even beasts that were trampled to death, and the food tonight was gone, and then let people find some firewood, planning to spend the night on the hills, and continue to move forward tomorrow.

"Chief, I found more than a dozen white sheep that are not dead, this beast only eats grass, does not eat meat, jumps flexibly, and is very fast, if we are not injured, it is difficult for us to catch, I didn't expect to catch so many today, and there are more than a dozen that are not dead, it is said that this kind of white sheep meat is particularly delicious, if it is roasted by the chief's method, tsk, it must be very delicious." Chu Nan had just rested for a while, and he saw more than a dozen clansmen carrying the corpses of many beasts, grabbing more than a dozen beasts with white hair all over their bodies and looking like goats in later generations.

"Really? Aries? Herbivore? When Chu Nan heard this, he was shocked, and he didn't care about resting, so he stood up all of a sudden, came to the side of more than a dozen injured white sheep, and looked at them carefully.

As the name suggests, the white sheep is covered in white hair, which is indeed similar to the goat in Chu Nan's memory, but it is bigger than the head, and the ram has two horns on its head.

Chu Nan said excitedly: "Montenegro, don't kill these injured white sheep, don't run away, you go get some rattans, tie them up, you must be optimistic, if we can succeed, we will have a source of food in the future, hahaha." ”

Montenegro scratched his head and said with a smile: "I know that what the chief said is reasonable, and I will definitely do a good job, so don't worry, chief." ”

Montenegro smirked and left with the other clansmen, as for how Montenegro looked at a dozen white sheep, Chu Nan was not in the mood to care, because the other clansmen came back one after another, and began to prepare to slaughter the beasts brought back, if you don't eat enough in this kind of place, in case of a dangerous situation, you won't have the strength to escape.

Chu Nan continued to calculate the future: "Aries are herbivores, if they can be tamed, they are equivalent to goats in later generations, if they are raised in captivity on a large scale, they can solve a large food source, and they can free up people to do other things, so that women can completely rest assured that they can give birth, only when the population is large, can more and build more." ”

"As for the question of consanguineous marriage? Alas, there is always a way, and when it is completely stabilized and the wrath of the Vulcan is overcome, it will not be bad for these few months. Chu Nan kept scratching his head, he was in a thousand directions, he was facing too many problems, and he didn't know which one to start.

"Addressing the issue of food sources should still be the first priority, followed by safety, and the rest, one by one." Chu Nan finally sighed.
