The next morning, after the rain, the sky was clear, and although the sun was still hanging in the sky, I could still feel a noticeable chill.

Chen Chao was worried about the lynx in the mountains, but there was another question, how to catch this thing?

The hunting team hastily ate a little in the morning, counted the equipment, took the jerky and set off.

In essence, when food is abundant, it is still eaten three times a day, but the lunch meal is not considered a main meal, after all, hunting is hard work.

Only the old people in the tribe have two meals a day, and in the winter when there is a shortage of food, they can't take a turn to eat one meal a day.

Yesterday on a rainy day, everyone had nothing to do, so they prepared a lot of spears and slings.

But it is impossible to go out hunting, so each person only carries two spears, such as Da Zhuang and others, they carry a sling, in fact, the things they need can only be collected and made all the way.

Chen Chao also carries two spears, the lynx is a feline attribute, it runs fast, but its body is thin and does not resist blows, these are its shortcomings, so he plans to start from this aspect.

In general, it is a wave of moving covering strikes, encountering a lynx, and when he is not on the tree, he throws a wave of spears first, but this can easily destroy the fur.

If you want to go up the tree, you can't help it, the lynx on the tree is too difficult to do...

Chen Chao sighed, if only there were bows and arrows...

Stone axes should also be put on the agenda as soon as possible, although the broken pottery shards are also sharp, but they can only do things similar to cutting meat.

If it's cutting down trees to make bows and arrows, it's basically not even thinking about it. And he asked Wu several times for the cracked clay pot, although the clay pot could neither hold water nor food, but Wu still had to be like something.

Especially when Chen Chao said that he was going to smash this clay pot, the little old man with the horns looked at him with a resentful face

(♯｀∧´)～

Smash me! OK! Smash the pot! No way!

The mountain breeze blew through everyone with a cool dampness, making the hunting party shiver in a short skirt of animal skins.

Chen Chao thought to himself, 'It's really going to be cold. ’

He raised his head and looked at the mountain forest, which was full of green trees, revealing that the gaps in the leaves could see the blue sky and white clouds in the sky. Ignoring the dangers that may lurk in the forest, and the possibility that you can starve to death at any time if you leave the group, you may be bitten to death by fierce beasts, and die of all kinds of accidents, this world without any pollution is still very beautiful.

And, this is my world!

Chen Chao closed his eyes slightly, a female lynx with her two children was about to walk back to the lair, and the male lynx was proudly patrolling his territory.

That's you!

Although he knew exactly where it was, Chen Chao still patted Yi next to him, and he even told Yi with a gesture, "There is a prey with hair, not far ahead." ”

After many times of cooperation, the people of the hunting team have been able to master some vocabulary, and they can also understand some of the meanings that Chen Chao wants to express, and in the entire tribe, they are the first to contact and master some new words taught by Chen Chao.

Language is a thing that was born in the daily life of human beings, when there are things that must be said in life, such as cooperation when hunting, wanting to convey information, and of course, there may be gossip in daily life...

For example: you from this side, I from that side, let's fence this leopard/tiger together and stab it to death with a spear!

Another example: Wow, who drilled the witch's skin when he slept last night, and got an extra fish today!

The need for these and so on, and the superposition of these factors, naturally gives rise to language. However, these factors must be based on the physiological organs of human beings, such as the throat, which have developed to the point where they can express language.

Yi looked very curious, he gestured and asked, how do you know?

Chen Chao pointed to the trees next to him, there were obvious scratches, and they were still very fresh.

And there is also an obvious thing, that is, there are very few rabbits here, and they are very smart, and the rabbits that the hunting team has encountered before are obviously stupid.

The lynx lives mainly in forest and shrubland, dense forests and rocks, and its main diet is various hares such as snow hares, and in hunting areas, lynx can control the number of hares, and they can kill 10% to 40% of the local hare population each year.

Although Chen Chao didn't really rely on some conventional means to find the lynx, it did not prevent him from using the results to deduce some possibilities.

After Yi learned the news, he ran to the front of the team to compare with Yuan, and Yuan also attached great importance to this matter, because it was almost winter, and he was also worried about the animal skins in the tribe.

A group of people tiptoed forward, and sure enough, they saw the male lynx who was patrolling the territory with the female lynx, and the hunting party did not dare to get too close, so they found a bush that could hide their figures.

Chen Chao whispered, "Lose, spear." ”

Everyone in the hunting party nodded.

After calculating the distance, Chen Chao threw the spear in his hand hard, and the others did the same, and the pair of lynx fell to the ground before they could react.

The people of the hunting party were overjoyed when they saw that it was so easy, and were about to get out of the bushes to collect the corpses of the two lynxes, but before they could get closer, one of the lynxes, which had fallen to the ground, jumped up and climbed up to the towering tree next to it in three or two steps.

The team members were annoyed for a while, Chen Chao was also very depressed, he ignored that animals are also very cunning, and he lost a lynx skin in vain, and this thing basically can't be caught when it goes up the tree.

But the team members are still very happy, they know this thing, it is called 'bobcat' in the tribal vernacular, I have encountered it before, it is particularly difficult to catch, and the claws are very powerful, I didn't expect to catch one for them this time.

Chen Chao looked around, lynx often inhabit caves and stone crevices, there don't seem to be any caves around here, it should be in the stone crevices.

Sure enough, after a while, he found two lynx cubs through the cracks in the rocks.

The people of the hunting team picked up the spears, put the dead lynx on their backs, and the two little lynx that Chen Chao made also killed one on their backs and set off.

This thing, don't think about it for the time being if you tame it, you can't eat enough, and you don't have any clothes to wear in winter, and you still tame it? And in modern times, it seems that I have never heard of a lynx as a pet.

This thing is properly classified as a beast of prey, and his father has escaped from the ascension to heaven, if he is attracted by the cry of the cub all the way, it is also a very troublesome thing to sneak up on the hunting team from time to time.

It's still early, and if you go a little further, you should be able to get two more litters of lynx.
