"Purr!"
The black-maned boar kept shaking its head, but it couldn't shake off the worm that stepped on its head, which made it angry and anxious, because the cocktail tightly grasped the mane on its back, and it hurt so much, and it frequently used a stone knife to chop on the back of the black-maned boar, and it didn't take long to cut out dozens of wounds.
If this continued, the black-maned boar would have to be hacked to death without doing anything, and in desperation, it slammed directly into the trunk of a large giant tree.
At the moment when he was about to hit the trunk of the tree, his agile hands propped up on the black-maned boar's back, and the whole person rolled forward, directly returning to the ground along the black-maned boar's wide back.
However, the black-maned boar couldn't control his body under the speed of the extreme gallop, and directly hit the trunk of the tree without slowing down.
Rumble!
There was an amazing tremor, and because Shen Nong was relatively close, his eardrums were stinging with shock, which showed how heavy the impact of the black-maned wild boar was.
Immediately, there was an extra pit on the trunk of the tree that the five people could not hold, and a large number of cracks spread out from the trunk, like cracked spider webs.
"Hmph!" the black-maned boar staggered in place, but its body was very swaying, and in the end it couldn't support it, and its huge body fell directly to the ground.
"Purr......" The black-maned boar's eyes rolled, and it was very much trying to get up from the ground, but because the force of its impact was so great, it would not be able to stand up normally.
Chi walked towards the black-maned boar with a stone knife, and was about to stab the other party in the eye with the knife, but at this moment, Shen Nong stopped him with a loud shout.
"Eh, forget it, we don't use it as food now, there's no need to kill it. Shen Nong said.
"Oh. Seeing that Shen Nong said this, he had no choice but to put away his knife.
Handing the animal skin bag containing the three devil frog eggs to Chi, Shen Nong looked at the black-maned wild boar, turned around and left the place.
......
The forest area is vast, and there are naturally a lot of hidden resources in it, Shen Nong has found a lot of unknown berries and taro rhizomes and sweet potato rhizomes along the way, these are crops that can be directly planted, Shen Nong is not polite, everything he found was stuffed into the animal skin bag he carried, and then used for planting after returning to the Huangqiu tribe.
Not long after walking, after bypassing a large area of dense bushes, a lake with clear water came into the eyes of Shen Nong and the others.
The water in this lake is far clearer than Bai Ze, Shen Nong can directly see the bottom of the lake when he stands on the edge of the lake, and the fry with only the thickness of a little finger wandering and playing on the lake, from time to time there will be dozens of centimeters long big fish swimming by, and then eat the fry that did not react at the speed of the thunder, and the action is very neat.
This lake is not very large, it should be only about 100 square meters, but the water is clear and clean, and it is more suitable for drinking than the water in Bai Zeli.
Around the lake, the shore is completely obscured by tall trees and bushes, so passers-by will not be able to spot the lake unless they come close and look at it.
"Take a break. Shen Nong licked his somewhat dry lips and said.
With the morning-long jungle trek, his throat inevitably dried up, and when he saw such a clear lake, he naturally wanted to take a few sips to replenish the water in his body.
Before coming to the Huangqiu tribe in the future, Shen Nong would never drink this kind of water that has not been specially treated or boiled in the wild, but after coming to the Huangqiu tribe, he was forced by the environment, so he only began to get used to drinking the light white lake water with impurities taken back from Bai Ze.
Anyway, everyone has been drinking like this for many years, and no one is necessarily in trouble, so Shen Nong broke the jar and broke it, and it has become natural to drink it now.
Since he can drink the kind of lake water in Bai Zeli, then the lake water in front of him that is so clear that you can see the pebbles at the bottom of the lake is naturally not to mention much, just drink it in one word.
Shen Nong walked slowly to the lake, squatted down and put his hands together into the lake, directly picked up a handful and put it to his mouth, and immediately began to drink.
Groundwater and mountain spring water are the sweetest to drink, and the water from the lakes in Baizeli nourishes an entire Baize ecosystem, and I don't know how many bacteria, parasites, and rotting fish carcasses are hidden in it, so it naturally tastes no better.
Although the lake water that Shen Nong is drinking now also has fish living in it, fortunately, the area is not large, and there are not many creatures in it, so it is not too polluted, and the taste of the water is still very cold, and there is no peculiar smell.
"Tsk. After drinking the lake water in his hand, Shen Nong couldn't help but chirp, sat directly on the edge of the lake, and enjoyed putting his two feet covered with sludge and grass clippings into the lake, watching the sludge slowly melt away under the soaking of the lake.
"Chi, you also sit down to rest, drink water, and we'll go back on the road later." Shen Nong patted the position beside him and said.
"Uh, Wu, I'd better go over there. Chi said with a strange expression, walked directly to a place more than fifty steps away from Shen Nong's location, and began to cough up the lake water on the shore.
At this time, Shen Nong could be regarded as reacting to why Chi was embarrassed, and hurriedly patted the back of his head and said speechlessly: "It's really stupid for people who are in a hurry, how can there be a reason to sit on the shore and wash their feet and ask others to come over to drink water." ”
Just when Shen Nong and the others were sitting by the lake to rest, a sound of rustling suddenly sounded in the bushes on the other side of the lake, and Shen Nong and Chi's faces suddenly became serious, and they both kept their eyes on the opposite shore, as long as there was any threatening creature out of it, they would immediately choose to fight or flee.
Shout!
In the next second, a human head suddenly emerged from the bushes, followed by the neck and body.
This person also discovered the existence of Shen Nong and Chi on the other side in an instant, and the expression on his face couldn't help but be stunned, and he couldn't help but be puzzled, how could there be someone else in this place.
"It's human. Shen Nong looked curiously at this person who came out of the bushes, this was the second time he had seen a primitive person who was not outside the Huangqiu tribe.
Chi's expression did not relax like Shen Nong, but slowly stood up from the ground, and at the same time hunched his body and pulled out his stone knife from his waist, as long as the person on the other side did something wrong, he would immediately rush over and kill him, preventing the other party from calling his clansmen.
