Chapter 3: Bear Hunting
The cold wind howled, and the body was cold. Ah Duo stepped on the calf-deep snow to explore the way in front of the frozen forest, Wang Qiang struggled behind with a wooden spear, the animal skin sent by this "system" could not stop the ancient cold at all, Wang Qiang's snot had turned into two ice ridges hanging on his mouth, the frost from the exhalation froze his eyebrows, and the muscles of his whole body were already solidified, if this body of meat was also worthy of being called muscles.
Wang Qiang had mixed feelings in his heart. In fact, Wang Qiang also knows that he is very wasted, and an otaku like himself who has not exercised for a long time and uses takeaway express delivery to get everything is far inferior to the physical fitness of a normal modern person. But Wang Qiang really didn't expect that he was not as good as a girl who hadn't eaten for two days in ancient times, how could such a wasted physique support the future of a race? If you encounter a warrior from a hostile tribe, is it like killing a chicken?
But,Throw away the game setting that the more the protagonist is wasted, the higher the reward.,When I first played the Three Kingdoms game,,It's a custom starting six attributes are only the lower limit of 1 point.,The waste known as the "61 layman",The same unification of the Three Kingdoms.,Although I am a waste of force,But there is knowledge and culture (?) How can it be better than the 61 layman, you must have confidence.
And the cold silence of the beasts on the way added to Wang Qiang's confidence - this shows that normal hunting will not work at the highest difficulty.
Ah Duo is aiming for the tree that looks the tallest with the crown, and Ah Duo thinks that if the bear wants to choose a tree hole, it will definitely choose the largest tree. Well, what a simple and straightforward idea of prehistoric humans, I just hope that the bear thinks the same way, otherwise Wang Qiang can't imagine how long his weak body can be tossed in the wild.
Then the forest was spacious, and it arrived! It is a wide clearing in the forest, in which a tall giant tree the size of a house rises in front of you, and countless branches hanging from the trunk of the tree go deep into the ground, doubling the grandeur of a forest.
Wang Qiang was stunned, such a tree should only exist in a fantasy world! "No grass grows under the big tree" is not enough to explain this large abrupt clearing in the forest, this tree is completely domineering to the point that no trees grow around the big tree.
In addition to being shocked, Wang Qiang is extremely looking forward to it, the so-called phoenix is not a sycamore, such a strange tree will definitely become the first choice for the bear's hibernation, right?
In line with the awe of the hidden beast, Ah Duo was on guard and tiptoed around the tree to search, Wang Qiang didn't dare to breathe, this is not the hunter game he used to play, this is his own battle, will he be scared to pee at the critical moment?
At this moment, Ah Duo waved his hand to Wang Qiang excitedly, and then pointed to a raised snow bag on the ground, which was completely different from the surrounding terrain, and it was obviously a trace of digging, and it was really found once!
This is what it feels like for a super player to play a super game! Wang Qiang's nervous heart beat wildly, his blood began to burn, and the cold that frozen his whole body seemed to dissipate - but, looking at the tightly frozen dirt bag, Wang Qiang suddenly found that the theory was out of touch with reality again!
Although the bear is indeed buried in the soil to hibernate, it is not completely sealed, or a small hole is left that the hunter can see outside, and this kind of seal is not suffocated inside? Or is it that the Ice Age was particularly cold, and that the bears of this era are different from the bears of later generations?
Well, then another practical problem comes, the bear is not better than the snake, when the snake hibernates the mouse eats it, it will not snort, the bear just sleeps deeply, as long as the movement is loud, it can still wake it up. Legend has it that the strongest polar bear hibernates even more blind to hibernation, and there is no chance of sneak attack. Now that the bag has been frozen into ice, what should I do if I dig the soil?
At this moment, Ah Duo made a gesture, and Wang Qiang actually understood: she wanted to cremate the ice! This must be a memory-loaded gesture message, the beast of prey has more hearing than humans think, and sign language when hunting is a necessary primitive language. It's just that she has fire on her? Don't say it's drilling wood for fire!
Then Ah Duo began to tiptoe to the surrounding woods to pick up broken dead branches, this Wang Qiang will too, Wang Qiang also began to break dead branches in the woods, and after a while, a large pile of frost-frozen dead branches were piled up with dirt bags, but such a strong wind, such a wet wood can burn?
Under Wang Qiang's puzzled gaze, Ah Duo took out an animal skin bag from the arms of the animal skin clothes, the leather bag was full of dry leaves and grass stalks, and then turned out one from the dead grass - mussel shell?
Wang Qiang's eyes widened, that's right, it's the kind of mussel shell in the river!
Then Ah Duo lifted the clam shell, and there was suddenly a lump of white charcoal mixed with charcoal ashes, and when the cold wind blew, the sparks immediately shone red.
It turns out that this is how their fire is carried! Wang Qiang couldn't help but applaud and cheer, he could make sharp weapons, carry fire, sign language, and know how to use fire to turn ice, the cleverness of this prehistoric human is really beyond his imagination! This enlightenment game of the pinnacle civilization is completely played, there are no students who can't teach, only teachers who can't teach well!
That's right, some of the small islands in the Pacific Ocean cannibal natives, and some of the natives in the depths of Africa haven't made the leap from primitive society to modern society overnight after coming into contact with modern civilization?
It's just that when he thinks that he doesn't seem to know anything as a teacher, and then thinks that other contestants with professional skills may have begun to "mass-produce cavalry", "make steel" and "make gunpowder", Wang Qiang feels a lot of pressure! What will I be? Well, I don't want to do that much, this bear hasn't been done yet.
At this time, under Ah Duo's careful care and shielding from the wind, a withered grass pole ignited by the charcoal fire began to smoke and burn in the ice pyre. I have to say that even if Wang Qiang is given a lighter, Wang Qiang may not be able to rely on this ignition to ignite such a pile of wet wood, and the ignition skills of prehistoric humans are definitely not comparable to himself.
Then the smoke grew louder and stronger, and the snow and ice under the fire began to melt, and after melting, the hot water continued to penetrate into the soil, and the soil soon unsealed into a silent pile of wet mud.
Ah Duo was so excited that he couldn't help but excavate. Then dig it, don't dig too wide, just dig a small hole in the spear.
So the two of them carefully dug out a handful of wet mud by the fire, Wang Qiang's hands were shaking violently, on the one hand, it was cold, on the other hand, it was afraid, Wang Qiang felt that this was not dredging, this was demining! Wang Qiang has not seen any horror movie, and the feeling at this time is palpitating.
This digging dug for half a meter and didn't dig through, Wang Qiang began to seriously doubt his judgment, even if this bear hibernates without leaving a breathable hole, he still buried himself so thickly? Is this a bear or not? Or are you actually digging crocodile eggs or something? No matter what, even crocodile eggs are eaten!
Ah Duo and Wang Qiang once again collected dead branches from the surrounding woods, and once again strengthened the ice melting fire to continue digging. Finally, after digging a full meter of dirt, a small hole collapsed, and a warm wind erupted from the small hole - dug through!
At this moment, the firewood pile suddenly flamed, and Wang Qiang was unexpectedly scorched by the flames on his forehead, and the sudden shock almost made Wang Qiang, who was nervous, scream!
What's going on? Dig through the biogas in the ground? Or gas from ancient times?
Facing Ah Duo's equally confused and frightened eyes, Wang Qiang immediately calmed down and made a gesture of waiting calmly. As a big anchor, even if you are confused, you can't show it in a panic, otherwise you will lose fans!
Then there was a long snoring sound in the small hole - bear!?
Looking at Ah Duo's ecstatic and shocked expression, the biggest stone in Wang Qiang's heart finally landed, and the bet was right, there is indeed a bear here!
Then Wang Qiang also came to an incredible conclusion: this may not be biogas, but oxygen! There is an abundance of oxygen underneath this tree hole, otherwise there is no explanation for the bear to seal himself so tightly. That is, this is a tree that produces a lot of oxygen? But looking at this fire, it is simply a welding oxygen cylinder, such a strange tree must be the magical species of prehistoric extinction that Su Su said!
Ah Duo is indeed only concerned about the prey, she looked anxious and kept gesturing, Wang Qiang was a little confused, but the general meaning was clear, from the small snoring sound that came, it can be known that the tree hole inside is very large, this bear is sleeping in the depths of the tree hole, and it is not at all that digging a small hole outside can stab it with a spear.
Does that mean you have to go into the hole for melee?
Wang Qiang's brows were beating wildly, and his heart was turning rapidly, not to mention whether the footsteps that entered the cave and whether the smell would wake it up, it was unimaginable just for the bear to be injured and fight back. Although the bear is stupid, it has evolved and survived by explosive power, especially in the narrow cave environment, which is simply invincible!
Can't go into the hole! You can only alarm it and ambush it on both sides of the hole, and when its head rushes out of the hole, two spears are plunged into its throat - the question is, what if it doesn't die if it sticks in its throat? What if it erupts too fast and the bear fat is too thick to even plug it in?
No, even if it's an ordinary hibernating bear, isn't that a problem that has to be faced? When it came to the end, Wang Qiang discovered what it means to be "easy to know and difficult to do"!
Then there is only a desperate fight?
Do you really want to fight a bear for your life? At the moment of battle, Wang Qiang suddenly found that he was afraid again, and the blood that had boiled before began to subside rapidly, and even his whole body couldn't help but shiver in the cold!
It's normal.,I've been growing up.,I haven't killed a single chicken.,Even when I was a student, I fought with others mostly to bluff and scare each other.,When did you ever have a "fight to the death" decision? That's a lot of games!
Well, this is a game, the game of crossing is still a game, you can't think about it too much, the more you think about it, the more afraid you are! Wang Qiang took a few deep breaths to try to calm down, and when Wang Qiang took a deep breath, a mouthful of smoke was inhaled, and Wang Qiang was shocked and immediately covered his mouth to block the cough!
What an ugly thing this is! At this moment, Wang Qiang only hated himself, why wasn't he a brave special soldier?
Wait a minute! Suddenly, Wang Qiang's heart flashed with inspiration - many people were not burned to death during the fire, but choked to death by suffocation in smoke. Now this wet firewood is burned with a lot of smoke, and this bear hole is so closed, there is a mystery of as much oxygen, just enough to pile a large amount of firewood into it and then seal the hole to burn a steady stream of smoke, even if you don't choke to death, burn the oxygen in this hole and suffocate it, even if it doesn't die, it will waste half of its life, at that time it was fighting to the death!
If you think about it, then the biggest disadvantage of the depth of this tree hole has become Wang Qiang's biggest advantage, because you can quietly put a lot of firewood into it without alarming the bear.
