【011】Looking for anacondas
"Python?" Xiong Yao looked puzzled, he didn't know what Shen Nong was going to do when he hunted this anaconda, everyone knew that the meat of the python was hard and tough, and it was also dense with tendons, which was difficult to chew, and it was not a qualified food.
And the anaconda has a very strong ability to entangle, in case they are accidentally dragged into the water, then even a first-class warrior is only a dead end, usually only when the chief and the witch should change their snakeskin skirts every year, a tribe will send the most powerful warriors to do this thankless task.
"That's right, I plan to arrange a reservoir in the tribe, and if our tribe has the ability in the future, we can also dig the reservoir into a well, and connect it with Bai Ze with a ditch, so that we can attract the water of Bai Ze and become a living spring of my Huangqiu tribe, but it's too early to say this, the most important thing at present is to get a piece of the skin of a worm and spread it in the reservoir, so as to prevent the loss and leakage of the water we poured in, so I brought the worm to Bai Ze's side, planning to hunt a worm. Seeing Xiong Yao's puzzled expression, Shen Nong spoke out to explain a little to him.
But how could Xiong Yao digest such a long passage in one breath, and he still said in confusion: "What pool, what well?"
"I can't explain it to you now, I'll know when you go back, let's find a way to catch a worm first. Shen Nong pointed to the surface of Bai Ze Lake and said.
Xiong Yao looked at the place where his four clansmen were eaten by Canglong, and said in a low voice: "It's too dangerous to hunt the prey in Bai Zeli at this time, those water monsters at the bottom of the lake have been alarmed, and they must be waiting for the prey to approach the shore again, let's wait for two moments before coming." ”
The huge figure of the dragon had been firmly imprinted in Xiong Yao's mind, as the chief, he didn't want to see any more casualties, with Xiong Yao's many years of experience in Bai Ze's activities, he knew that only when a period of time passed, those water monsters in the potential lake realized that there would be no more prey willing to approach Bai Ze Lake, so they planned to retreat to the bottom of the lake, they would have a chance to get close to the water source.
Seeing that Xiong Yao didn't seem to support his plan to find the anaconda at this time, Shen Nong couldn't help but scratch his head in embarrassment, Xiong Yao's concerns he could also understand, after all, in front of a giant beast like Canglong, humans were nothing at all.
In the primitive era, the tribe was equivalent to a big family, and every member of the tribe was a family relationship, and everyone took care of each other and helped each other in their daily lives, and they already had a deep family relationship. As the head of this family, Xiong Yao naturally does not want to see someone lose their lives due to an accident.
If Shen Nong insisted on letting the clansmen get close to Bai Ze to catch the anaconda at this moment, Xiong Yao would definitely not agree, and might even speak up against Shen Nong.
Shen Nong can vaguely feel the mood of the bear sickle, but he doesn't care, because he doesn't need to get close to Bai Ze to catch the anaconda, Shen Nong, who has been familiar with the "Encyclopedia of Nature and Biology" since he was a child, knows that the anaconda is a creature that likes to be frugal very much, and in order to prevent the excessive evaporation of water in their bodies in hot and dry weather, they will take the initiative to bury their bodies in the surface silt, so as to prevent them from being exposed to the sun.
Although today's weather is not like a hot sun, you can still feel as if your body is being grilled, and if you don't hide in the shade of a tree, you will soon sweat and cry bitterly.
In this kind of weather, swamps and other areas with silt will definitely have anacondas hiding, and there is no need to go to great lengths to find them, everyone just needs to figure out how to catch them from the slippery and sticky silt.
"Xiong Sickle, is there a place full of mud near this Bai Ze?" Shen Nong asked.
Xiong Yao thought about it when he heard this, stretched out his hand and pointed to the left side of Baize Lake and said, "Go all the way this way, about five hundred steps away, there is a muddy land that has not been covered by the water of Baize Lake, and it is full of silt, which is similar to the place you said. ”
"Very well, let's go over now. Shen Nong clapped his hands in response.
"But, didn't you say that you want to catch anacondas? Beanas are usually active in the area near the shore of Bai Ze, what are we going to do there? He asked puzzled.
"Just come with me. Shen Nong didn't answer, and walked directly in the direction that Xiong Sickle said, and everyone hurriedly followed, for fear that Wu would have an accident.
Seeing that Shen Nong did not insist on approaching Bai Ze, Xiong Yao swallowed the words persuading him to give up his actions and return to the tribe, and started to follow at the end of the group.
Every member of the Huangqiu tribe knows that Wu knows a lot of things that they and others don't know, and they not only have magical witchcraft, but also contain a wealth of knowledge and wise minds, and they are the most indispensable existence of a tribe.
When each Wu feels that he may not live long, he will select a disciple who he thinks is the most suitable among the tribe's clansmen, and then teach him everything he knows unconditionally, so that the disciple can continue to bring help and hope to the tribe after his death, which is the inheritance of Wu.
Therefore, usually the opinions and orders of the witch, the clansmen will not refuse and oppose them, because they know that the witches of their tribe will not frame everyone, but contribute their own strength to the tribe all the time and help everyone in need.
Shen Nong suddenly said that he was going to the silt area, although it sounded strange, but no one questioned him, because everyone present knew that Shen Nong must have a deep meaning in doing this.
The distance of five hundred steps was quickly reached, looking at the muddy area in front of him that was full of brown silt, and from time to time there were some weeds and wooden sticks messing in, Shen Nong nodded with satisfaction, now he could only hope that there were really anacondas hiding in this area, otherwise they would have to return empty-handed when they went out this time.
"Spread out and look carefully, anachondas will bury their bodies in the mud in this dry weather, and then only show their heads to breathe, the target is still relatively easy to find, if anyone finds it, tell me, we will kill it when we are ready." Shen Nong said as he stood on the edge of the muddy ground.
Bear Scythe, Worm, and the remaining three surviving clansmen immediately sprang into action, and began to walk around the muddy ground, all while staring at the depths of the silt, hoping to spot the anaconda.
It didn't take long for the worm, which had already walked a hundred paces away, to suddenly shout, "Wu! I found the anacond! It's here!"
Shen Nong's face was happy when he heard this, and he hurriedly ran in the direction of Chi, shouting as he ran: "Be quiet, don't scare the target away." ”
