Chapter Eighty-Eight: The River Dire
Torrential rain poured down.
The raindrops were dense and hit the ground rapidly, and the sound of muddy water splashing sounded everywhere.
The leaves are beaten with a loud sound, and listening to the sound makes people feel like if such raindrops will not pierce the leaves.
In the rain, a figure flashed through the trees, and stone needles as thin as toothpicks pierced through the rain curtain, piercing through the dense branches at a rapid speed, and stabbing into a short wooden stake the thickness of an arm hanging there.
At this time, there were already many identical stone needles pierced on the wooden stake, and from different angles, the hanging wooden stake was pierced like a hedgehog.
There are quite a few such stakes hanging nearby, some in the grass, some hidden in the bushes, and some hanging from the trees.
Thorny-
After a quick dragging sound, the stakes placed in different places sped up, and as they moved, stone needles flew in.
Aggressive!
In the grass, in the bushes, in the air...... Everywhere, there were more stone needles on the stumps.
The crackling raindrops that smashed the ground didn't detract from the flying stone needles in the slightest!
Call!
The figure galloping under the rain curtain in the forest turned over, crossed the branches in front of it, and landed steadily, the sound of landing was inaudible in the surrounding raindrops.
Shao Xuan wiped his face and went over to put away the stake.
He trains like this all these days, first with spearhead darts, then with thinner stone thorns, and now with stone needles that are thinner than stone thorns.
Thinking of the kind of white hair that I encountered when hunting in the green space, it was obviously so soft, but it could pierce thick wooden boards, and the body of the intermediate totem warrior could not be prevented, the material of the white hair was one reason, and another more important factor was that the white hair shot out very fast!
Shao Xuan is trying this, hoping that one day he can directly pierce the thick plank with a thin piece of grass, but now, he can only practice step by step, if he can't even make the stone one, the grass will not be able to think about it.
It's still far from it.
Because it has been raining in the past few days, Shao Xuan didn't let Lao Ke come out, and it rained so hard, it was pure sin to come out.
Every time Ge went to Lao Ke's side to get some stone tools, he would taunt Lao Ke for becoming "weak", he used to go up the mountain with crutches and gritted his teeth step by step, and he would not use anyone's help when he went out, but now Lao Ke went out to ride Caesar, and went up the mountain to rely on Shao Xuan's back, and he didn't go out when it rained. What a squeamish!
Lao Ke was not annoyed, what should he do, he didn't hear it. Ge Na is completely jealous, pantothenic acid water! He will not tell Sรน Ge, Shao Xuan gave him another herb from Wu to recuperate, and he is in the recuperation period, he used to have a negative mentality, life and death at will, but now, he still wants to live a few more years to see how far Shao Xuan can go.
Caesar and Chirp were both thrown on Lao Ke's side, Shao Xuan sometimes thought about whether to expand the house and let Lao Ke move in with him, anyway, he was alone, and Lao Ke had only one on his side, saving him two runs a day.
While thinking, Shao Xuan also cleaned up those wooden stakes and wrapped straw ropes in his hands.
Last year, the rainy season started after the next hunt, but unfortunately this year it was brought forward, so Wu asked everyone to prepare, and the hunting team that was going to set off on the hunt also postponed the outing.
Behind Shao Xuan, a slender worm like a snake sprang out of a tree, and unlike the snake, it had many feet on it.
Spitting out a snake-like letter, it stared at Shao Xuan under the tree, its body silently sliding down the trunk, and the thin feet on its body allowed it to stay firmly on the trunk.
When approaching Shao Xuan, its body twisted, the front half of its body returned to the plate, completing the "S" shape, and then aimed at Shao Xuan, like an arrow off the string, opened its mouth and bit the back of Shao Xuan's neck!
Shao Xuan didn't look behind him, he just raised his hand seemingly casually, and when it was only half a palm away from the back of his neck, he had stopped in front and strangled its neck.
Fingers strain slightly.
Click!
The worm detached its head and body.
Shao Xuan's fingers flicked, flicking the insect's head to the grass on one side, while the headless insect body flung to the woods on the other side when he withdrew his hand.
Shao Xuan didn't look at the worm at all during the whole process.
After packing up the stone needles, Shao Xuan got up and glanced around.
He'd encountered that kind of bug several times in the past two days, and he heard that every year during the rainy season, they will burrow out of the ground. Not only this bug, but other creatures are emerging from the ground one after another. But except during the rainy season, these bugs hardly appear in the mountains where they are trained.
Stepping on the muddy ground and walking back, Shao Xuan suddenly raised his foot and kicked a stone under his feet away. The kicked pebbles carried muddy water and shot straight into a meadow.
A scorpion-like insect that had just been drilled out of the ground was pierced by a stone.
Lao Ke said that these insects that come out of the ground in the rainy season will actively hurt people, and they are very poisonous, so don't be bitten and stung by them, and kill one by one.
I heard that some insects will run to the tribe, so during the rainy season, the children of the tribe who have not awakened the power of the totem are locked up in the house, and everyone will sprinkle a kind of grass juice around the house, which has a certain insect repellent effect.
"Uhhh
There was a loud bang from the other side of the river.
The soldiers in the surrounding training ground felt a chill rush through their heads, and they all stopped what they were doing, jumped to a high place, and looked at the river.
Shao Xuan was almost at his place of residence, and there was no hill to cover him, so he climbed the tree directly and looked at the big river in front of the tribe.
In the rain curtain, the figure jumping on the river surface is not clear, too far away. But even though the figure leaping in the distance of the river was far away from the tribe and was not fully revealed, its huge size could still be inferred.
This is what really prevents the tribesmen from exploring the river.
The dinosaur, the dominant creature in this invisible river. The word "fear" given to it by the tribesmen can be seen that everyone is afraid of it.
The huge river dinosaur, although it is impossible to see what it looks like, but just seeing such a size and hearing such a sound already makes people feel an unrivaled sense of depression.
When they appear, it means that the real rainy season has begun, not just the occasional storm. This is the same as Wu predicted.
The rainy season is really early.
When the dinosaur leaps up, it roars like a whistle ringing in its ears, piercing the eardrum as if it were about to burst. But when the huge river beast submerged in the water again, it would make a muffled sound like thunder, not harsh, but worse than the previous one, making people feel like they had been beaten hard in the chest by a heavy hammer again and again. If you put a glass of water in the house, you will see the water in the cup vibrate violently.
At this time last year, Shao Xuan, like other children in the cave, covered his ears and hid in the cave, and that sound was torment for them, and many people trembled.
It's not just the children in the cave, but the children of the tribe snuggle up in their homes at this time of year, plugging their ears with something, but it still doesn't relieve the discomfort caused by the sound, and some of them even bleed from their ears and noses.
Probably for those dinosaurs, the rainy season is joyful, and they frequently jump out of the water and seem to be happy. Even though they are far from the riverbank, the image they bring is not diminished, and for the tribe, the rainy season is a disaster. The only thing that is fortunate is that the dinosaur will not come near the shore, let alone come ashore. Otherwise, the tribe may have long ceased to exist.
When the giant dinosaurs appear, an emergency meeting is held in the tribe, and the leaders of the two hunting parties are assigned to descend the mountain to take charge of the defense, which is also the annual rainy season guard battle.
During the rainy season, something may pop up in the river, which is why the tribal hunting party has postponed their outings, and they have to guard against the creatures in the river.
