Chapter Seventy-Eight: Water Sources
The sky is bright, and in the blink of an eye, it is a new day.
Li Kai stretched his waist and got up from the branches on the ground, although he was very uncomfortable, he was already a little used to it.
Shortly after the bison had been driven away the previous night, he went down to rest from the seed, and nothing happened during the night, allowing him to sleep peacefully until dawn.
This is a very happy thing for Li Kai, so he is in a very good mood today.
Added a handful of firewood to the fire that was only left with a charcoal fire, and raised the bonfire again, Li Kai started today's live broadcast while heating the wolf leg that he didn't finish last night.
"Good morning, little Kai"
"Good morning, anchor!"
"Xiao Kai's little life is quite good, there is barbecue to eat early in the morning"
"Uh, I think it's better not to eat such greasy things in the morning, it's better to eat something light"
"Upstairs IQ arrears, the appraisal is complete, why don't you buy a cup of soy milk for the anchor and send it to 10,000 years ago?"
"Poof, upstairs inexplicably poked the joke"
The audience poured in, and the live broadcast room quickly gathered a lot of popularity, everyone greeted Li Kai one after another, and there were jokers active on the front line early in the morning.
After responding to everyone's greetings, Li Kai quickly gnawed all the meat on the wolf's leg, without letting go of any meat residue, and then put the remaining intact wolf leg into his bag.
He roasted both wolf legs last night, but only ate one, and the rest of the wolf legs could be eaten for two more meals.
So Li Kai doesn't have to worry about food for the time being.
But he didn't have much water, and yesterday he filled the small lake on the cliff with water, and cleaned himself by the way, but because there was no utensils to fill it, the kettle quickly drank to the bottom.
"Maybe I should have cut off the wolf's stomach yesterday and made it into a rudimentary water bag. Li Kai remembered the wolf corpses he had abandoned.
He had this idea at the time, but after thinking about it, he gave up, which was really a bit disgusting, not to mention that he wasn't sure if the wolf stomach could do it.
After telling the audience that he was going to fetch water, Li Kai first climbed up a tree, stood on a high place and observed the surroundings, and soon saw a piece of water, about a few miles away from his location.
Li Kai did not set off rashly, but made some simple preparations, there will definitely be a large number of animals passing by near the water source, and there is no shortage of predators, so Li Kai can't take it lightly, in addition to the shotgun, he also has to make a long weapon to defend himself.
After thinking about it, he decided to make a spear.
In the Cretaceous period, when he was dealing with the lizard dragon in order to complete the side quest, Li Kai had made a rudimentary spear, but at that time was tight, he was just in a hurry, and today he has enough time, and the spear is also more finely made.
He chose a long, thick and stiff pole, nearly three meters long, which allowed him to fight back outside the range of the beast's attack.
Cutting the top of the wooden pole, Li Kai stuffed the hilt of the jungle dagger into it, making it the tip of the spear, and then wrapped it around with a rope.
His jungle dagger is a systematic product, extremely sharp, and has good lethality, even a saber-toothed tiger would never want to take a hit.
After a brief rest, Li Kai set off with a shotgun on his back and a spear in his hand, heading in the direction of the water source.
Along the way, on the plains along the way, Li Kai saw a lot of fauna from afar that also rushed to the water source.
While Li Kai was observing them, the animals were also staring at him vigilantly.
"Have you seen those Przewalski's horses, they are also known as Asian wild horses, and our XJ region of China is their birthplace. Li Kai pointed to several sturdy and tall wild horses dozens of meters away, and his tone was full of sighs, "However, Przewalski's horses were once extinct in Asia, and in the late 80s of the 20th century, they were brought back to China from Europe. ”
"Look at the movement of Przewalski's horses, their forelimbs are plowing the ground, which is not a good sign, they should be warning me not to go too close. As soon as they wrinkle their noses and show their teeth, it's a sign that they're going to attack me. ”
"It's better not to provoke them. ”
Seeing the hostility of the Przewalski's horses, Li Kai stopped staying, stayed away from the horses, and continued on the road.
The distance of several miles was not too far, and soon Li Kai came to the vicinity of the water source and saw a large area of water.
There was no shortage of water in the plains of the Ice Age.
On the water's edge, Li Kai also saw many animals drinking water, from red deer to original cows, basically all the animals he saw yesterday can be found here, and several huge woolly rhinoceros are also drinking water by the river.
At this time, Li Kai also found that there seemed to be a giant beaver in the distance, and when he told everyone that the giant beaver did not live in the water like its descendants, but on land, many people were stunned, saying that they were deceived by its name.
"Anchor, look, there's a big turtle!"
"Wow, it's really, Xiao Kai has Wang Ba soup to drink now"
"I'll go, this turtle is so big"
“... , a few upstairs, you're enough, that's not a turtle at all, okay, that's a drum!"
"Meow meow?"
“......”
Just when Li Kai was about to fetch water, the audience's excited barrage floated by, which attracted his attention, and when he turned his head to look, Li Kai really saw a slow-moving giant beast not far away.
It was a huge and strange animal, about four or five meters long, carrying a huge carapace like a turtle shell, like a suit of armor, and its thick tail had spines at the end, which looked like a huge mace!
This strange and very intimidating beast attracted the attention of countless people as soon as it appeared, and paleontologists were naturally among them.
"That's right, as the friend above explained, it's not a tortoise, it's a mammal, and its name is the Eagle-toothed beast. ”
"The carapace on its back is made of more than a thousand one-inch thick bone plates, and it is very strong, similar to the shell of a turtle, except that it does not have the same head as a tortoise. ”
Li Kai stood in the distance and watched the carving-toothed beast, and he also felt very novel, and he was full of taste.
"The carapace of the codont is so strong in its carapace, coupled with a thick thorny tail, that few predators can threaten it. ”
"I remember reading a news article before, I don't know if you have seen it, saying that a Texas man in the United States found an armadillo in the yard and was about to shoot and kill it, the man fired three shots at the armadillo, but because the armadillo had its own hard armor, it bounced back and broke the man's jaw. ”
......
"Hold the grass, the bunker!"
"This Yankee is simply dead"
"It's called if you don't do it, you won't die"
"But I still don't understand, what does this armadillo have to do with the eagle-toothed beast?"
"Uh... , I seem to understand a little bit."
The audience has different opinions, and many people don't understand why Li Kai mentioned the armadillo when he talked about the carved tooth beast.
In the audience's discussion, Li Kai added: "The reason why I talk about this is very simple, because the eagle tooth beast is the ancestor of the armadillo, and now you can imagine its carapace hardness." ”
