94 The Second Hunt
As the sun rose and the temperature got hotter and hotter as the sun wore on, He Jun squatted in the grass by the lake with his back to his SUV, tiptoeing away a little from the blades of grass in front of him.
His gaze sparked through the lush grass and into the depths of the grass, searching like radar for any unusual movement.
The grass is too dense and too high, even if the distance between the prey and He Jun is only a few meters, it is impossible for him to see the traces of the prey, and he can only indirectly observe the movement of the prey through the abnormal shaking of the grass - this is the lake on the other side of the stream, and a large area of herbaceous plants growing in shallow water occupies the shore of a large lake, and the height is almost the same as that of an SUV.
In addition to the fact that the plant species and growth form are very different from the reeds, this lush grass looks like the reeds of later generations.
He Jun was very glad that these water-loving herbs did not grow directly in the water, but on the shore near the water, and if they grew in the water like reeds, he really didn't dare to approach rashly.
No matter how you look at it, such an environment is very suitable for giant frogs to hide, and He Jun's target this time is those giant frogs that are too big to speak.
He Jun's first hunt had no goal at all, only thinking about how to hit the prey to fill his belly; And the second hunt has a strong purpose, which is to come for the giant frog!
The giant frog I saw by accident last time was at least half as tall as most people, and the meat on its body was dozens of catties, and it was enough to eat for two or three days if you caught one.
He Jun ate frogs when he was a child, and when he thinks about it, he still has an endless aftertaste, but after being sensible, he knew that frogs were beneficial, so he never ate them again.
As for the salamander, this amphibian, which is very rare in modern times, is so cherished that he has no chance or wants to eat this endangered creature, but he has only heard on TV that the meat quality is good.
Frogs and baby fish are both amphibians, and even if they are not directly related to the prehistoric giant frog, they are at least close relatives, and the meat quality of the giant frog is not too bad.
If he hadn't solved the belly problem before, He Jun wouldn't have considered the problem of taste anyway, but now the situation is that the food is enough to eat for a while, and hunting giant frogs has no risk and can get relatively high-quality meat, so why not?
In order to achieve this goal, He Jun really worked hard.
The safety of hunting is closely related to where the SUV can drive, the last time the SUV failed to drive across the stream, this time he found a shallow place near the jungle, and drove the SUV to this side, acting as a hunting fortress.
He Jun is ready for everything now, and he only owes the east wind of the giant frog's whereabouts.
However, He Jun did not get carried away because of his little ambition, although he had never lived by the lake, but he also knew that the reeds by the lake were a small ecosystem, that is, there was no shortage of safe animals such as frogs, nor did there lack of dangerous troubles such as snakes.
Although it is a prehistoric era, there is a time difference of hundreds of millions of years between it and modern times, but the route of biological evolution is common, and this large area of "grass swing" must also hide a lot of dangerous prehistoric creatures!
If it weren't for this, He Jun would have gone to the grass nest with a crossbow - the best way to catch frogs is tantamount to scaring the grass and snakes.
He Jun was not a good hunter, but he had enough patience to squat on the edge of the grass for a while without finding the target, but he was still not in a hurry.
He Jun was not in a hurry, but the awkwardness in the car couldn't help but whisper: "Douzi, how long has it been?"
He and Douzi stayed in the car and acted as He Jun's sentinels, watching the jungle to the north to prevent the dangerous creatures in the jungle from suddenly jumping out.
Douzi looked at his watch: "It's been ten minutes." ”
"So long?" Don't be surprised, "Haven't moved yet?" ”
"Ten minutes or more?" Douzi glanced awkwardly in surprise, "If you're tired, just rest for a while, I'll keep an eye on it, and we'll change the guard after a while." ”
"I don't need to." He didn't want to refuse, "It's early in the morning, what am I going to rest?" ”
The two of them didn't have a room to lower their voices, and the windows of the car were not closed, He Jun outside the car heard it clearly, and couldn't help knocking on the car door: "You two be quiet, I didn't find anything here, you two shouted like this, didn't you scare all my targets away?" ”
"How so?" Awkward and disagreeing, "When you hear us talking, you may be able to scare the giant frog and jump out." ”
He Jun smiled, and didn't take the awkward words to heart, but after thinking about it, it seemed to make some sense. So he stood up on his knees, moved his legs, turned around and climbed onto the roof of the car, and looked condescendingly at the grass: "Don't be awkward, honk!" ”
"Huh?" I wonder if I heard it wrong, and I didn't let out any sound just now, and it was only a moment before I made a 180-degree turn?
"Ahhhh Hurry up! He Jun said as he buckled a beast tooth arrow to his crossbow and stared at the grass with his crossbow in his hand.
Awkwardly agreed, and slammed into the middle of the steering wheel, a loud whistle suddenly sounded, spreading far away, startling a group of sparrow-sized insects in the grass that could not be named.
However, the anomaly that He Jun wanted to see did not happen, which made him very disappointed, and just as he was about to start again in another place, the group of chaotic insects suddenly moved, and a giant frog jumped up, and with a lightning curl of tongue, it swallowed a flying insect in the air into its mouth.
He Jun was overjoyed, raised his crossbow and pressed the crossbow machine, and the beast tooth arrow swooped into the depths of the grass.
The distance between the giant frog and He Jun was more than 20 meters, and the crossbow arrow did not move after it was shot into the grass, and He Jun was tiptoeing and stretching his neck, but he couldn't see whether the arrow hit the target or not.
Without further ado, things changed, He Jun slid to the hood with a wrong step, turned over neatly and landed, and quickly grabbed the position of the giant frog in the car: "Drive that way, slow down!" ”
The road conditions in the grass are unknown, and the slow speed can avoid the unknown risks to the greatest extent, in case the car gets stuck in it, and you can't find a place to cry.
Awkwardly as he said, the SUV slowly drove into the grass at the same height as the car, surrounded by grass a little higher than the roof, and he couldn't see the situation in front of him at all, so he drove the car like a snail crawling awkwardly and cautiously.
He Jun had been calculating the distance of the SUV in his heart, and he felt that he had almost stopped when he reached the place...... The giant frog that was finally shot was turned into a meatloaf by the SUV, and it was a bad dish.
He opened the window of the car and poked his head out to take a look, and then retracted helplessly: "No, I can't see anything clearly, I have to go down and have a look!" ”
