On Langga's side, a few people were attracting attention.

Shao Xuan felt the gaze in front of him, and only moved away after staring at him for about two minutes.

"Ah Xuan, run!" Lang Ga shouted from there.

There was no need for Lang Ga to shout, Shao Xuan had already noticed that when the other party looked away, the accumulation of his legs burst out in an instant, and his bent knees catapulted.

Click!

The top of a stone pillar under his feet suddenly cracked, and Shao Xuan's body shot out like a bow and arrow.

The next moment Shao Xuan left the stone pillar, the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of a long shadow that shot out and retracted rapidly, if Shao Xuan was a little slower, he might be swept away by that long shadow.

What that long shadow is, Shao Xuan knows in his heart, if he touches it, he will be dragged directly into the water.

At the same time, Lang Ga and the others had already thrown the spears in their hands towards the creatures in the water. They didn't dare to project directly just now, just because Shao Xuan's position was easy to be injured by mistake, and now that Shao Xuan left, they didn't have to tie their hands and feet, the tendons on their arms bulged, and they threw the spear in their hands.

The stone spear passed through the rain curtain, and Shao Xuan could still hear the "whoosh" sound of the spear body cutting through the air at great speed.

Poof!

Three spears pierced the creature in the water, red blood flowing, and if the piranhas were there, they would have followed the smell and robbed it, but now, there was nothing but the movement of the creature that had been shot.

Whoosh!

Two more spears were projected.

There was also a long rope of straw tied to the spear, which was evident to drag the prey that had just been shot back to shore.

As the people on the shore took back the straw rope, Shao Xuan finally saw the figure of the creature.

Somewhat different from what I just thought, the creature that was dragged ashore did resemble a frog, but what was more obvious was that it also had a long tail behind it!

Tadpoles? Tadpoles that have not yet developed into frogs, but have grown front and rear limbs?

Listening to that cry just now, Shao Xuan didn't expect to see such a situation at all!

The long-tailed frog that had been shot was still struggling, but the struggle was a little smaller than just now, and its forelimbs and backwards were tampling, leaving traces on the river beach.

After the long-tailed frog was mended a few times and no longer struggled, Shao Xuan took a closer look.

With the exception of its long tail, its limbs are webbed rather than toe-shaped, its mouth is open, and it has some fangs in its mouth, but other than that, it looks exactly like a fully transformed frog.

Not only that, but the size of this long-tailed frog also made Shao Xuan staggered, not counting the long tail, its body length was already more than five meters! No wonder Lang Ga and them were so nervous.

Such a big, toothy, and long-tailed frog was the first time Shao Xuan had seen it.

"I was almost scared to death just now!" Seeing that Shao Xuan was safe and sound, Lang Ga also took a long breath, and then warned Shao Xuan: "This thing is out, be careful in the next time, it's best not to go to the fish fence again these days." ”

Whether you can catch a fish or not is a small matter, but personal safety is a big matter.

Lang Ga had palpitations, he didn't expect the thing in the water to come out so quickly, when he saw the two bulging eyes on the water very close to Shao Xuan, Lang Ga only felt a basin of cold water splashing in his face.

Some of those who used to patrol were swept into the water, and those who were dragged into the river never returned. Although everyone took precautions later, and they can still hunt a lot of this thing every year, if they are not careful, they will still be hit. In front of the prey, do not take it lightly.

Watching the others slaughter the long-tailed frog, Lang Ga told Shao Xuan some things to pay attention to, and also talked about the previous tragedy, also to attract Shao Xuan's attention.

"As for this thing, it tastes good, and you can still hunt a little, but in two days, it will be difficult to start. Langa said.

On the same day, Shao Xuan, together with Lang Ga, hunted three long-tailed frogs, which were all large and peculiar varieties with teeth and long tails except for the different patterns on the surface of the skin.

The people of the same round of patrols each divided their points, and after the patrol was over, they brought back the frog meat, and it was not bad to eat, although it was not as tender as the frog meat that Shao Xuan had eaten in his previous life, but it contained much more energy than the snail meat.

The rainy season here is relatively short compared to winter, but it is not a matter of one or two days, there will be about 30 days, no one can say the exact time, it varies from year to year.

Two days later, the river level rose a lot due to the heavy rain that kept going.

Shao Xuan thought that with such a rise, it wouldn't take ten days to cross the stone line, but looking at the others, he didn't seem to be worried at all.

When Shao Xuan came to patrol the riverbank, from the shallow water to the deeper places, he could see a lot of slightly triangular heads and round eyes, which were densely packed along the riverbank.

No wonder Lang Ga said that it was difficult to start, there were so many long-tailed frogs, and before you could pull the hunted frogs ashore, the grass rope was pulled down the river by them.

Sometimes, when he was idle, Lang Ga would stuff mud into the empty snail shells and throw them over to watch the long-tailed frogs shoot their long tongues to grab food. Like the frogs that Shao Xuan knew, those long-tailed frogs were also things that captured movement, and many times the snails that were thrown over were swept away by the long tongues that shot out before they fell into the water.

The long-tailed frogs never come ashore, but at most lie on their stomachs in shallow water, revealing a triangular head and a pair of bulging eyes. It rarely barks, unlike the frog sound that Shao Xuan thought, and only occasionally can you hear a small and short "quack" sound.

As the river level rose, every day when Shao Xuan passed, the patrol site would retreat, because those long-tailed frogs were saved, and they had to keep a safe distance from the river.

Until one day, when Shao Xuan came to the river, he found that the long-tailed frogs lying near the river bank had all disappeared, and the river surface, which had risen to the seventh fish fence, began to retreat.

The rainy season has not passed, Lang Ga told Shao Xuan that this is only the first time that the river level has dropped in the rainy season, and there will be several more drops after that, and after the first river level drop, all those long-tailed frogs will disappear, and there is no need to worry about them reappearing after that.

At the same time, Shao Xuan also noticed that when the river level was falling, the flow of the river, which was gradually obvious due to the rising water in the rainy season, changed. Now, the river does not flow in the direction where the overlords of the river swim, but flows to the upper reaches of the river as Shao Xuan guessed.

The changing direction of the river, as well as the long-tailed frog that disappeared overnight, all told Shao Xuan that something was happening upstream of the river. According to Langga, there are several times during the rainy season when the river level drops, and each time the river level drops, the direction of the river changes. Every year during the rainy season, there are a lot of things going on that they don't know about.

It is precisely because of many strange phenomena that the people of the tribe feel that this river with no boundale is even more mysterious, and they have always been reluctant to explore, let alone explore.

When the river level fell for the first time, Shao Xuan saw the kind of wood-eating insects in the seventh fish fence.

The seventh fish fence was set up by Shao Xuan, and he put a few pieces of wood in the fish fence, but he didn't expect that it coincided with the river level dropping and the river receded, so he temporarily trapped this wood-eating insect inside.

Wood-eating insects are like a heavy mass of slime, and when they smell the storage of wood, they will attach to the wood, or directly lengthen, and then pull the wood down.

It's just that Shao Xuan found that in the place where the river was flooded, there were also many trees, but those trees were not eaten much. Throw a small piece of wood into the river and wait for more than an hour before you can see the block being pulled down, which would have disappeared in less than two minutes in normal times.

Obviously, the wood-eating insects are also very active during the rainy season.

So, when Shao Xuan was on patrol every day, he would put a wooden block in the water to see how long it would take to be pulled down the river. A thin straw rope is tied to the wooden block, and the other end of the rope is tied to a stone pillar so that it does not float away. After going back, Shao Xuan will record the results of the day in his secret "notebook".

This rainy season is only twenty-seven days, a few days shorter than last year, which is normal, according to the veterans, the longest of the rainy season they have experienced is forty days, but the shortest rainy season will not be less than twenty-five days.

When the rain ceased to fall, the dark clouds that had been lingering in the sky dispersed, and the sun shone on the land again after a long absence, the mood of everyone in the tribe was as sunny as the weather.

The children, who had been stuffed in the house for nearly 30 days, ran out of the house with joy and ran around barefoot laughing. The children in the cave also started to prepare their things, and when the rainy season is over, they can continue fishing. For the time being, they didn't have to worry about being dizzy from the screams coming from the river.

Why temporary?

Because, those dreadbeasts that have stopped roaring will reappear after a while, and they will call again.

"Ah Xuan, go back!"

Lang Ga and the others had already packed their things and were ready to leave.

"I'll go back immediately, you guys go first!" Shao Xuan responded.

After the rainy season is over, as long as you don't go into the water, there is no danger, so Langga is not worried.

When Lang Ga and the others left, Shao Xuan took out a small wooden boat from the animal skin bag, which was the last few days of his patrol, and every day after he returned, he made a simple sailboat out of the wood and some small stone nails that were stored in the house.

The sails were made of only the leaves of a plant, the planks were of ordinary wood, and the hull of the small sailboat was only two palms long.

The wind was blowing from the river bank to the big river, Shao Xuan put the simple little sailboat on the river, his fingers were slightly forced, the hull of the boat was pushed away, swaying, blown away from the shallows of the river bank by the wind, and sailed to a place where the boundary could not be seen. The green color on the boat is particularly conspicuous.

There are a lot of piranhas in the river, and these guys with big heads and low IQs who have disappeared from the rainy season are starting to be active again, even more active than before the rainy season, and throwing a small piece of bloody flesh into the river can cause them to fight for a long time, and they are very energetic. The good thing is that they are not interested in wood, and the wood-eating insects in the river who are interested in wood seem to have disappeared.

Standing by the river and watching for a while, Shao Xuan left with his things, and when he went up the mountain, he looked back at the river, and he could see the small dots that were gradually drifting away in the sun.
