Chapter 10: Where It All Begins

Zheng Jun couldn't see any difference between this place and the previous grassland at all. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Are you sure? This place doesn't look special. ā€

Thirteen nodded affirmatively, pointing to the river.

"This is it, look at the bay over there, and wrap this one in it, and the river over there is not very wide, but in fact it is so deep that a mammoth can drown. It's a great place to hunt, and that's what I found out at the time, so I can't be mistaken. Although the exact location cannot be found, it must be this one!"

Looking in the direction of the thirteen fingers, this so-called bay is indeed a bit special, it forms a separate bend in this place, as if it is recessed into a piece, and the river surface at both ends is wider, but the river surface of this bay is much narrower. In retrospect, it is true that I have never seen similar terrain before.

Although the location has been confirmed, this bay is very large, and Zheng Jun estimates that it is almost 2-3 square kilometers, and if there is no specific location, it is no different from looking for a needle in a haystack. Even if you change the position every day and try it next to each other, I'm afraid it will take decades.

To say that Zheng Jun is really unlucky, when he crossed over, the head of the mammoth herd was not far away, and he was knocked out before he had time to observe the surrounding environment, and then fell into an intermittent coma.

But fortunately, Thirteen still remembers a rough idea. He led the way, and when he was not too far from the river, he checked around again.

"It's about this distance, it's definitely around here, and the herd of elephants turned and rushed out in that direction, definitely this range. ā€

Saying that, Thirteen stretched out his hand and drew a rough range, looking at the size, it was about the same as a football field. Damn, it's going to take a few years to try it!

But I finally have a rough range, and there is some hope.

"Everyone spread out and looked for anything special. ā€

Thirteen sighed, nodded to the three hunters, and dispersed.

The area was not very large, and although it was covered with grass, it didn't take long for the five people to look for it little by little, and it took two or three hours to plow the place.

But I searched everywhere in this place, but I couldn't find anything. There were no tools left, no fragments of the lathe, not even scattered wood cuts.

If you don't have these, forget it, mammoths weigh nearly ten tons, and where dozens of mammoths have stepped together, they can't see any footprints, which is not normal.

Even Thirteen is a little uncertain now.

"We didn't clean up the place, we had a few mammoths hunted, we didn't have that many people with everything with us, I'm sure there were a lot of things left here when we left!"

Thirteen was a little embarrassed.

"Maybe I'm misremembering, but it's certainly the distance from the river, so let's look for it along the way. ā€

Zheng Jun couldn't find any other way now, and he had no choice but to do this, the bay recessed into form a semi-elliptical peninsula, and the place mentioned by Thirteen was about thirty meters away from the riverbank. In this bay, the line thirty meters from the river is almost a kilometer.

They searched along the river for a long time but could not finish the line, so they had to camp again and spend the night. The next day, I finally searched the line, but still found nothing.

At this time, Zheng Jun was really disappointed, although he had thought that he might really not find anything, and he was even mentally prepared to obey the fate of heaven, but when this moment really appeared, he still couldn't help but be disappointed.

Thirteen was also a little sad to see his disappointed appearance, and he was also very puzzled about the situation. He was very sure of the accuracy of the place. At that time, in order to find a place to hunt, Luo sent a lot of hunters to find a suitable location. This bay was discovered by Thirteen, and he told Luo again when he thought it was suitable, and in order to decide how to hunt, he also came with Luo again to confirm the terrain.

Combined with the hunting, he had come to this river bay three times in total, so Thirteen was very sure of the correctness of this location. But at the same time, he also remembered very clearly that it was not cleaned up so cleanly.

This place has actually left the usual range of activities of the Ba people, and it is considered a peripheral area, because the forest is difficult to walk, usually Ba hunters do not hunt in this direction.

Therefore, the hunters were not very familiar with this place, and even needed to search everywhere for suitable terrain before they could start hunting, and then they were not interested in staying in this relatively unfamiliar land for long, and after processing the prey, they took Zheng Jun and some things that seemed useful or large items with them.

As a result, they left behind not only the bones of elephants, but also many useless-looking objects and a large number of wood fragments. This is also the reason why Zheng Jun believes that there are things that have not been found, because there are indeed many things that have not been taken away.

But now don't talk about things, the bones of elephants are completely nowhere to be seen, you must know that the bones of those elephants are not the same as the bones of ordinary small animals. No animal is interested in elephant bones that are larger than their own body, have no flesh and can barely bite. So there is no reason for these bones to disappear like this.

He thought about it and thought it was possible that the place had been cleaned. Telling Zheng Jun about these situations, Zheng Jun thought about it and felt that this was the only possible case.

"Are there any other tribes around here?"

After spending some time with Thirteen, Zheng Jun would not doubt his ability in hunting. Since he was so sure, he couldn't be wrong. The only thing that could happen is that someone nearby came here after the Ba hunters left, and then packed everything up.

I don't know why they did this, after all, this place is not the street of the modern world that needs to be cleaned. The most hunters do is to dispose of the fire left behind in the camp to ensure that there is no fire, and the remains of the prey are mostly left in place.

It's okay if you don't understand, now at least there is hope again.

The three hunters sent by Qi did not participate in the previous hunt, and although they were not novices, they were not the most experienced group of Ba hunters. In fact, there are only a handful of experienced hunters like Thirteen in the Ba tribe. Even among the hunters who participated in the hunt, he was one of the most experienced.

"A day's journey to that side, there is a large tribe, in whose tribe we used to rest, and it is the closest tribe to here. ā€

"Okay, let's go there and ask. ā€

Although Zheng Jun said this, he still looked at the three hunters with an inquiring gaze. However, these three hunters were originally sent by Qi to protect him and Thirteen, how could they oppose it at this time? And although that tribe has less interaction with the Ba people, it is also a friendly tribe, and there is no danger. So everyone decided to go around and ask.

Zheng Jun left the place where it all began.
