[136] The attraction of water sources
On the grassland, the tribesmen of the Huangqiu tribe are working in full swing and sweating profusely.
Shen Nong thought that working in such hot weather would make it a little difficult for the clansmen, but no one complained about it, and everyone was doing their best to add a little progress to the excavation of the gully.
"Wow!"
At this moment, a huge gray gull suddenly flew over the grass, its two black eyes looked coldly at the grass below, and directly turned its wings and circled above the grass.
"Hmm! what a big bird. Shen Nong had just walked out of the cave where the reservoir was located, and when he saw the gray gull in the sky, he couldn't help but exclaim.
I saw that the body of this gray gull was two meters long, and the wingspan should be about four meters laterally, which can be regarded as a bird of prey.
Under Shen Nong's surprised gaze, the gray gull flew directly and fiercely towards the grass vertically, and the scene was very terrifying.
"Danger! Get out of the way!" Shen Nong immediately reacted, and hurriedly shouted to the clansmen who were still walking on the grass.
Hearing Shen Nong's reminder, those clansmen fled in all directions, trying to avoid the range of the gray gull's fall.
However, the result in the next second was beyond everyone's expectations, only to see the gray gull come to an extremely cool wings glide when it was about to land, and flew straight all the way to the side of the ditch, lowered its head and began to drink the water in the ditch.
This situation made Shen Nong stunned, he originally thought that the gray gull wanted to attack his clansmen, but he didn't expect that the other party would just drink saliva for it.
The gray gull in the drinking water completely ignored the surrounding Huangqiu people who were quietly surrounding with weapons, which showed how thirsty it was.
Seeing the gray gull's body that was enough to carry one person, Shen Nong had a novel idea in his heart, so he immediately ran to the edge of the ravine and called the bear sickle up from under the ravine.
"What's the matter? Xiong asked with a bone shovel in his hand.
"A bird has just flown into our tribe to steal water, and it's over there, you catch it for me, and I'm going to live. Shen Nong pointed to the gray gull who was still drinking water by the ditch.
"Oh, okay. The bear sickle nodded, put the bone shovel on the ground, and immediately ran towards the gray gull.
As a second-level warrior, the speed and strength of the bear sickle are far beyond ordinary people, when he rushed towards the gray gull at full speed, the gray gull just reacted, the bear sickle was already close to its body, there was only a short distance of three steps between the two, as long as one more breath, the bear sickle could grab the gray gull's wings.
As a wild bird born in the wild, the gray gull is naturally very fast in vigilance and reflexes, and if it is an ordinary clan who will catch it, the gray gull will definitely be able to easily escape with its own take-off speed.
But it's a pity that the one who came to catch the gray gull at this moment is a second-level warrior, and he is also the strongest person in the current Huangqiu tribe - Xiong Sickle!
"Wow!" Feeling the approach of the bear sickle, the gray gull suddenly couldn't care about drinking water, and hurriedly began to spread its wings, intending to start flying high.
But it was too late, the thick arm muscles of the bear sickle were tense, the green tendons were bulging, and he stretched out his arms directly, and grabbed the claws of the gray gull very accurately, dragging his already flying body back to the ground.
"Drink!" Xiong Sickle shouted, picked up a punch with his right hand, and directly used five points of force to hammer it on the gray gull's head, and immediately the gray gull was covered in the head, and his whole body fell to the ground weakly, obviously unconscious.
Seeing that Xiong Sickle had subdued the gray gull so neatly, Shen Nong couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly ran over and said, "Come on, bring the black rattan rope and tie this bird to me." ”
Everyone in the Huangqiu tribe thought that Shen Nong was going to eat this gray gull, and immediately some people planned to go to the big cave to move the stone stove and bone pot, but they were immediately stopped by Shen Nong.
What are you kidding? How can such a suitable wild fowl be eaten casually, wouldn't that be too tyrannical?
Let the tribesmen tie up the gray gull, while the gray gull was still in a coma, Shen Nong directly took a stone cone and chiseled it through the gray gull's right leg, and then passed the stone cone through the wound and left the whole one in the gray gull's leg.
Faced with a large amount of blood gushing out of the wound, Shen Nong also took a hemostatic herb and chewed it without wasting it, and then carefully applied it to the wound of the gray gull.
For all that Shen Nong had done, the other Huangqiu people stood by and watched it, they couldn't understand what Shen Nong meant by doing this, so they all looked at Shen Nong with puzzled expressions on their faces.
"Peck the bones, go get me some wood, I'm going to make a cage. Shen Nong got up and said to the pecking bone standing in the crowd.
"Oh. For Shen Nong's order, the pecking bone had long been accustomed to it, and he immediately ran out of the crowd to help Shen Nong find wood.
It didn't take long for the peck to push a cart of wood back.
"There's nothing to see anymore, let's all disperse. Shen Nong said to the surroundings.
Hearing Shen Nong's words, those clansmen who put down their work in order to watch the excitement reluctantly left, leaving only Bone and Xiong Sickle in place.
"Come over here and get a hand, let's go over there and build the cage. Shen Nong pointed in the direction where the bullpen was located and said.
So, the peck was responsible for pushing the wooden cart, and the bear sickle was responsible for dragging the unconscious gray gull, but Shen Nong didn't have to do any heavy work empty-handed.
The three of them came to the vicinity of the bullpen, and saw that Pu Xu was in charge of cleaning the cow dung and tidying up the haystack where the white cow slept in the bullpen at this moment.
Because the only remaining member of the Blackstone tribe confessed to Shen Nong the location of the ancestral land of the Blackstone tribe, Shen Nong specially allowed him to be spared, but he had to become a slave of the Huangqiu tribe.
Seeing the arrival of Shen Nong and the others, Pu Xu suddenly stood in place at a loss, thinking that he had done something wrong.
"You're busy. Shen Nong said indifferently.
Pu Xu immediately nodded again and again, bent down and began to tidy up the dead grass in the bullpen.
The size of the gray gull is already very large for Shen Nong, and this wild fowl alone is a person's height when standing in place, so the wooden cage made for it should also be larger.
Shen Nong took four long logs and stood them in a line side by side, and then beat the wood with a large stone until it was knocked into the soil.
This kind of thing is naturally more suitable for people with great strength to do it, so Shen Nong handed over this task to Xiong Sickle after knocking two logs in a row, after all, he is a second-level warrior, and his strength is far greater than himself, so it will be more convenient, faster and more efficient to do this kind of thing.
