Chapter 15: The Death Fall Trap
Traps, still traps. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Li Hang decided to make full use of all the resources available to him and slowly consume this group of ferocious beasts as much as possible.
The rain was still falling, but it could no longer stop the passion in Li Hang's heart, he quickly thought about it in his mind, and finally decided to use a trap called "Death Fall".
The name suggests how lethal this trap is, it is a trap that can kill both small and large animals, and it is also the most practical trap with a rare chance of failure.
It requires materials that are also common in the wild, such as boulders, wood, bait, and a sharp tool.
That's right, just a few simple materials are needed to successfully lay it out, and it doesn't even require complicated preliminary work and rope weaving.
There is no shortage of boulders here, not to mention wood, and an entire forest is inexhaustible, and the bait is ready-made grouse guts, which should be one of the favorites of wolves and beasts.
Only the sharp tools required at the end, Li Hang did not have them, and it should be the rule for entering the world, and he could not carry any metal substances at all.
However, Li Hang is not stupid, knowing that he is going to a primitive world, how could he not do everything possible to prepare some sharp tools for himself.
There are no sharp tools such as knives, and he can't bring any metal products, but there are other substitutes that are not, so before entering the prehistoric world, he bought a few hard and tough stones online that were specially used as whetstones, and found someone to polish a few stone knives and other things.
Among them is a palm-long stone knife, which is not usually sharp due to machine polishing, and is capable of cutting materials that are less hard than it.
Of course, the biggest disadvantage of stone polishing tools is that they cannot touch things that are similar to or higher than their own hardness, otherwise they are easy to wear.
Unless Li Hang can get diamond, because the hardness of diamond is the hardest stone in the currently known civil field.
The cutter heads of many large-scale workshop machine tools are mainly made of diamonds, but with Li Hang's financial resources, how can they buy diamonds.
In addition to polishing a stone knife, Li Hang also made a stone axe and a strip stone frustration, of which the main role of the stone axe is to chop wood and cut wood, and the previous cut vines have a lot of credit.
And the last stone setback, then its role will be great, at least now that Li Hang wants to make this death fall trap, he can't do without it.
In order to deal with the wolves, Li Hang can be said to have worked hard and exhausted, he first searched around, and finally found a large rock suitable as a target.
This stone is generally rectangular and flat, with a length of nearly two meters and a width of one meter three, a thickness of about 30 centimeters, and a total weight estimated to weigh more than one ton.
Even with the limit of the strength of the two beast slaves, coupled with Li Hang's own physique that has been restored to good health, he still can't lift this big guy.
In the end, Li Hang still relied on the rope and wood lever principle he brought, plus stuffed logs under the stones, and used the roller principle, and finally transported it back to the open space outside the cave.
With a large stone suitable for the main killing, and then down, the wood to find is simple, Li Hang only cut the main trunk of a small tree, and all the materials are ready.
He asked the beast slave to cut the trunk of the tree into a wooden stick as thick as the mouth of a bowl, the wooden stick was one meter eight long, and then he began to use the stone frustration back and forth in the middle of the stick, until he broke a groove and did not stop.
Then Li Hang took it upon himself to use a stone axe to break the remaining trunks into two long pieces of flat bamboo, and stuck one of the pieces of wood in a cross-section into the groove in the middle of the wooden stick to form a huge cross.
At this point, this rudimentary type of death fall trap has finally taken shape, yes, everything is as simple as that, this is the crystallization of human wisdom.
Now it's just a matter of getting these two components in place and securing them.
The fixing work is not complicated, and the bottom of the other end of the wooden stick has already been sharpened, and Li Hang directly asked the beast slave to insert the wooden tree into the soil with brute force, which is already very stable.
The next thing to do is to lift the big stone to one side and support it at the top of the stick.
It's a bit of a struggle, but simply lifting a stone instead of carrying it as a whole is a perfect accomplishment of the beast slave after a lot of effort.
The final step is to arrange the bait guts on the other side of the flat bamboo block, which is very simple, just be careful not to move the stick too much, so as not to lose the support of the stone and press it down.
When Li Hang personally completed the last step of getting on the bait and finished all this, Li Hang smiled, the first step in dealing with the wolves had been completed.
As long as it doesn't rain heavily tonight, the wolves will inevitably peek into their burrows, and once they see the grouse's entrails to drag, one of the wolves will inevitably be crushed to death by the fall of the boulder.
Despite all the effort, the final result was that only one was killed, but Li Hang was not discouraged, and it was a long time to come, and one less was killed.
He didn't believe that the rate at which wolves could reproduce faster than the speed at which he set up ambushes and kill, not to mention that in the world of prehistoric civilizations, the ratio of all time was only ten to one in reality.
Therefore, Li Hang was not in a hurry at all, maybe as the number of wolves declined, there would naturally be other more ferocious beasts to deal with them.
Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.
And this shareholder wind, naturally, was nightfall, God didn't let Li Hang wait long, and the sky gradually darkened.
For dinner, Li Hang still eats roast grouse and rice.
Unconsciously, the night was getting deeper and deeper, and finally, when Li Hang couldn't resist sleeping, suddenly, there was a wolf howl in the distance.
Li Hang's expression froze, and he suddenly understood that the wolves were coming.
He held his breath and quietly listened to the movement outside the cave, but after a long time, the arrival of the wolves was not short, but he never heard the heavy movement of the heavy object falling, let alone the howling of the crushed wolf.
All his expectations of a good direction did not happen.
The wolves lingered outside the cave for a while, but eventually they could not find the hole that had been blocked by the stones, so they left one after another.
Listen carefully, there are at least a dozen wolves coming over this time.
It's a pity that it's pitch black outside the cave, and even if Li Hang looks out from the crack in the stone, he can only see a dozen pairs of light bulb wolf pupils like dark nights.
