Chapter 452: The Beginning of the Rainy Season
The rain is getting heavier and heavier.
An Ning stood on top of the second-floor house, where the heavy rain had been going on for three days.
According to Duo, the rainy season is about to start here.
This rain is just the beginning.
As is customary in previous years, it will rain for about ten days, and then it will continue.
A short pause won't solve anything.
And it goes on for three months, until winter comes.
At that time, the roads were blocked by heavy snow, and the rain on the ground would freeze into ice, and they would not be able to hunt and find food for eight months, which meant that their annual death season came.
From now until the end of the final winter, a large number of people will die from lack of food and cold.
It's conventional.
Many people are already worried.
Because the hardest weather is about to begin.
An Ning frowned.
Their clan has grown now, and Yong has left after helping them settle down.
After all, this is not their ethnic tribe, they are the warriors of their tribe and must go back, there is their family there.
But their tribe still had a dozen more men, and they were strong men.
These cannibal slaves are now struggling to adapt to their new lives.
Because they don't have to worry about food and clothing here, they are not even slaves anymore, and the Great Witch said that as long as they behave well and contribute to the tribe, then they will become the real masters of the tribe, and they can also be allowed to form families freely.
They are not fighting outside to expand their territory, for a bite to eat, but also for women and their children.
These are obviously available here, and there is not much risk to be taken.
As long as it's hard work, it's not hard.
Because for them, any hunt has the potential to die.
But now it's easy.
The power of the Great Witch is for them to submit.
Not only the Great Witch, but they also saw how they hunted flowers and flowers.
For though weapons could not be given to them, they were strong men who were ready-made porters who would take them with them on every hunt.
At first, there were people who tried to escape.
After all, there is a difference between a strange tribe and her tribe, and people want to return to their own circle of life.
But when they saw the flowers for the first time, they were shocked when they hunted a huge reindeer.
Reindeer are not carnivorous animals, but they are extremely ferocious, and generally their tribe does not dare to try to hunt reindeer.
Because reindeer generally live in herds, and both male and female deer will have horns on their heads, but the horns of the doe are not as strong and sharp as those of the male deer.
But the power of the stag, including lethality, is something they dare not try.
A male deer is as tall and strong as three people, and every time a reindeer is hunted because of the reindeer's struggle, dozens of people may die.
So it's easier for them to hunt a rabbit or pheasant.
They don't risk the mass death of their tribesmen to do something that doesn't cost more than they can do.
After all, the price to pay for hunting a reindeer is too great, and even the tribes of a powerful cannibal tribe like theirs would never make such a sacrifice.
And the weapons in their hands are so difficult to hunt the bucks.
It is too difficult for the population to reproduce.
For the leaders of their tribes, the population was too rare.
The child mortality rate is particularly high here.
A strong warrior takes many years to develop.
Even if they are hungry, it is better to hunt other people of their kind than to hunt reindeer.
But now what they see simply refreshed all their three views.
In their concept, all hunting is done by the sharp spear in their hand.
Sometimes the reindeer's skin is tough enough to withstand the attacks of their spears.
They can't do anything with a lot of beasts.
Rather, they are the food of the beasts.
But now, these women!
Only five or six women!
He was holding the kind of weapon in his hand that he had never seen before.
Far away, without even approaching any prey, he shot a particularly tall and majestic stag.
This made them understand for the first time that they could be so far away.
You know, at this distance, their spears simply can't throw their prey.
And for them, it is necessary to observe and listen carefully, and slowly crawl until they get close to their prey.
That's after they learned a lot from their mistakes, and they understood.
If the prey feels like it's being targeted, it will be frightened and flee.
So a good hunter's eyes are better off looking somewhere else, approaching from the side in a roundabout way, rather than going straight towards the prey.
But now!
It was also a detour and an ambush, but at this distance they began to attack.
At the beginning, Dacheng they were all sarcastic and ridiculous!
A woman is a woman, and a woman in their tribe is a tool for procreation!
Even reserve food during the period when their food was most scarce.
Not understanding anything is also the reason why they don't take women seriously.
But that's no longer the case.
They surrounded the carcass of the reindeer for a long time, just to find out about the reindeer.
Is the reindeer already injured, otherwise why could they be killed so easily?
The women didn't approach the reindeer at all, but when they reached a certain range, they shot arrows with the thing in their hands.
And they simply don't know why the power of the shot is so great.
The reindeer are very fast and very sensitive, and in terms of the strength of the stag's body, even if they attack.
However, such a small arrow would not do much damage to the reindeer.
The leather was enough to withstand the damage of those weapons.
But now it was different, and the reindeer they saw was knocked down by seven or eight arrows before they could even struggle.
Lying here was beautiful and ugly, blood flowing from the wound on the chest and staining the ground red.
And the animal was dead, and these women did not bother at all, nor did they get hurt in the slightest.
Not even chased or disturbed by the reindeer's struggle before they died, they watched as they happily walked over, pulled out their arrows, wiped the blood off one by one, and continued to plunge into their weapons bags behind their backs.
One by one, they were speechless.
The shock has been numb.
Oh, yes! These are the witches who gave them.
They don't have much trouble killing a reindeer, isn't it easy to kill them?
They have a powerful witch.
So in an instant, they were convinced that they were going to become the clansmen of the Great Witch.
Also live this life without worrying about death.
So these people and flowers and flowers really get along very well.
There are even several people who have made their homes with the peaceful people.
Unfortunately, there are only five adult females in the peaceful tribe.
That's not enough for them.
