Chapter Forty-Six: Catching Deer and Horses
The eggs laid by these birds and birds every day are a major source of food nutrition, and they are the fastest development background for the primitive human race in the future. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It is impossible for Li Hang to abandon the foundation that has been laid, otherwise, it will take a lot of time to get so many birds and birds in captivity.
And after leaving the woods, it is a question of whether they can be caught by traps, so the three square areas behind are all used to transport them away.
The most complicated chassis and wheels were assembled, and the main body of the carriage seemed to be the largest, but it was very quick and easy to assemble, and it took the two of them another two days.
Finally, on the twenty-third day after entering the world, a rough wooden carriage was built.
This is nothing short of a miracle in the prehistoric world!
This big carriage is obviously not a product of this world, but it is a pity that there is only a car, and there are no horses, but there are four strong and powerful dire wolves pulling the cart, and the effect is estimated to be not much worse.
At least in terms of travel efficiency, it will definitely be faster than walking, and it can also pull a lot of things, after all, Li Hang has carried a lot of items before and after, and without this carriage, it is estimated that everything with these loads can only be abandoned.
After the carriage was built, it was followed by further adjustments, first of all, four large wooden wheels, all wrapped in fur, which not only increased the ground grip of the carriage, but also had a cushioning layer, which would minimize the peak slope of the carriage between walking.
The second is to make reins for the four dire wolves, peel the bark, smoke the vines, wrap and bundle each other, a series of troublesome and meticulous work, and two days passed, and finally all the preparations for the driving trip were completed.
As for what the beast needed to do in the past two days, it was directly sent by Li Hang to make a wooden frame, a one-meter cubic wooden frame cage, and Li Hang made two, all the grouse, forest pigeons were all stuffed in, and a large number of grass seeds, chestnuts, pine nuts and other bird and poultry food were prepared and packaged together.
Then the rest of the rear compartment space was filled with furs, meat from large elks, giant pork, and so on.
Everything was done, when Li Hang tied the reins to the four dire wolves, and on the twenty-seventh day, this series of preparations for the trip was completely over.
When the beast slave blocked the big stone of the cave shelter and completely sealed the place that had given Li Hang shelter, the group finally got into the carriage and traveled.
"Goodbye, my shelter." Li Hang turned around and looked back, then jumped into the carriage, four dire wolves pulled side by side, and with a squeaky sound of wood, the three-meter-old carriage headed south.
No one knew what was waiting for Li Hang ahead, but he only knew that the most solid step had finally started on the fifty-eighth day of entering this world.
The four strong dire wolves pulled the carriage, which was more powerful than expected, and these dire wolves, who were known for their infinite strength, did not exert much effort at all, and maintained an average speed of about fifteen yards per hour.
This speed is about the speed of a human running fast hour, and although it is not fast, it is much faster than hiking.
This is still because of walking in the woods, according to Ruo Shiqiang's estimation, if he walks out of the woods and walks on the normal land, the speed should increase to twenty yards, and in this place where the woods and mountains are full of spear grass, it is quite good to have this speed.
Of course, dire wolves are not good at running for a long time, so Li Hang also keeps traveling for eight hours a day, and the rest of the time allows the dire wolves to get a full intermittent rest.
At such a speed, they explored the south, and as expected, before the afternoon of the same day, Li Hang and the others walked out of the woods.
I came to a new terrain - hilly terrain.
As far as the eye can see, there is a continuous undulating vegetation, the highest point is tens or hundreds of meters high, and the lowest depression is also more than ten meters deep.
The ground was overgrown with unidentified thorn grass, about half a man's height, and each step was very laborious, and there were unknown dangers hidden in it.
Faced with such a situation, at one time, whether it was Li Hang or Shi Qiang, they couldn't help but suspect that they had chosen the wrong direction.
However, the large herds of vegetarian animals that appeared one after another on the hills, and the wide variety of them made the two of them breathe a sigh of relief, and there should be nothing wrong with such a large group of various animals surviving.
On the twenty-ninth day, the four dire wolves seemed to have reached the limit of their patience after two days of hard work dragging the wagon.
Admittedly, there is a big error with the predicted period of the plains.
Originally, the carriage that was still very well used in the woods was very difficult to travel in this hilly area with a lot of vegetation and thorny grass forests, but Li Hang had come here, and naturally he would not give up the foundation accumulation and all the heavy items he had laid before.
"It seems that it is still not possible to use the dire wolf to drag the carriage, we have to find a replacement." Finding a large tree and stopping, Li Hang looked at the large group of herbivores in the distance.
In the endless area, there was a group of wildebeest with their heads down and chewing grass not far in front, and they seemed to have discovered the arrival of Li Hang and others, but due to the existence of four dire wolves, these black characters immediately became agitated and ran into the distance, and then not long after, they lowered their heads and continued to chew grass.
There are hundreds of black-wildebeests in this group, and outside the entire field of vision, there are several large groups, and the total number of them is probably not less than three hundred.
A little further away, Li Hang even found another prehistoric extinct creature "bighorn deer", just like their name, in addition to being long and strong, thick hair, this ancient deer also has a pair of oversized antlers, the horn surface is more than two meters five.
Even if Li Hang and the two of them had an arm crossbow and four big dire wolves, they didn't dare to provoke this group of grumpy guys.
On the right, there was a group of creatures that looked like horses and deer, and when Li Hang and Shi Qiang set their eyes on this group of unnamed creatures, their eyes lit up.
Nearly two meters tall at the shoulder, strong and powerful hooves, strong horse body, huge deer head, and most importantly, they have neither the irritable temper of the black wildebeest and the bighorn deer, nor their big horns, but very docile hiding next to a small wave, quietly grazing.
Of course, the fact that they raise their heads, erect their ears, and graze while observing their surroundings uneasily shows that they are at the bottom of the food chain, which is the weakest layer of the food chain.
is the so-called people are good and people are good, and horses are good and ridden, and now Li Hang and the two have taken a fancy to them, and it is precisely because of this reason.
There's nothing more suitable than this unknown herbivore of a large deer and horse as a mount pulling a cart.
In an instant, Li Hang and the others decided to capture a few of these unknown creatures, as long as they had it, even if they walked in the complex hilly area, it would no longer be difficult.
